Chapter 29

【Fifteen thousand honor points, one talent point, just as I expected.】

After the inconclusive battle with Killua, Allen immediately checked his attribute panel and found that, apart from the honor points being about five thousand less than when he defeated Hisoka, there was no significant difference.

As for the gap in honor points, it could either be that Killua didn't use his full strength, or that he wasn't as adaptable in this kind of direct confrontation as Hisoka.

In any case, in the PVP system's evaluation, the eldest son of the Zoldyck family, for now, was not rated as highly as Hisoka.

In addition, Allen made up his mind to head straight to the Sky Arena after the Hunter Exam to grind out a dozen or so talent points and unlock the Strong Attack Aura in the Shooting talent.

It's important to understand that the attack strength attribute is the base for a person's offensive and destructive power, while the techniques and Nen abilities enhance this base.

To put it simply, if a person's pure muscle power generates a destructive force of ten, and their technique and Nen capacity are also ten, the final destructive force would be ten times ten, equaling one hundred.

But if the muscle power generates a destructive force of one hundred, with the same technique and Nen capacity, the resulting destructive force would be one thousand.

In this regard, Meruem from the Ant Arc is the most typical example.

He relied on his far superior physical attributes, never even using "Hardening" or "Enhancement," and easily broke through President Netero's defenses with just the basic "Wrapping."

Similarly, Woff from the Phantom Troupe could even catch a rocket launcher with his bare hands.

Don't think that many Nen users can achieve this!

On the contrary!

Most ordinary Nen users, let alone catching a rocket launcher, would be seriously threatened by the continuous fire of a rifle. If it were a sniper rifle, they would likely be critically injured or even killed on the spot without using "Hardening" to cover their entire body.

While Allen was sitting alone, thinking about how to become stronger, he suddenly heard a gasp from the hall.

He looked up!

He saw that Killua, under Killua's provocation, had directly pierced Biscuit Krueger's heart.

The latter fell to the ground in pain, blood gushing from the wound, quickly staining the floor red. His pupils were dilating and losing focus.

"Damn it! Killua! What are you doing?"

Leorio, who aspired to be a doctor, was the first to rush over, trying to provide emergency first aid and stop the bleeding.

Unfortunately, for someone with a pierced heart, unless an extracorporeal circulation machine was immediately connected, followed by immediate blood transfusion and surgery, or even a heart transplant, everything else would be futile.

But Killua, who was in a state of mental confusion, ignored this. After the examiners declared a violation and disqualified him, he turned and walked out the front door, disappearing into the crowd.

Only after he was completely out of sight did Allen stand up and approach Biscuit Krueger's body. He said to Leorio, who was filled with anger and frustration, "Move aside!"

"What?"

Leorio was clearly stunned.

"I said, move aside!"

Allen pushed him aside, summoned his Nen beast—the Red Dragon of Life—and, using the dragon's massive size as cover, poured a healing potion into Biscuit Krueger's mouth. He then bit his finger and inserted it into the dragon's mouth, whispering, "Activate ability—Gift of Life!"

Instantly!

An indescribable and astonishing Nen power descended from the sky, continuously drawing some invisible energy from his body.

Before anyone could react, the red dragon turned and sprayed a burning flame of life onto Biscuit Krueger's motionless "corpse."

In the blink of an eye!

The middle-aged man, who appeared to be over fifty, visibly grew younger, and the terrifying through-and-through wound on his chest rapidly healed.

By the time the life-giving flame completely extinguished, Biscuit Krueger had transformed into a thirty-year-old, physically unharmed young adult.

Allen, on the other hand, seemed to have matured slightly.

Especially his height, which was originally less than 1.67 meters, had grown by three to four centimeters, officially crossing the 1.7-meter threshold and finally escaping the awkward "third-class disability" situation.

About one or two seconds later, the younger Biscuit Krueger regained consciousness from his shock-induced coma, instinctively touching his chest, then his younger face, and muttering in disbelief, "What happened? Wasn't I already dead?"

"Dead... resurrection?!!!!!!!"

Leorio was almost shocked out of his wits.

Not just him, but all the examiners, judges, and candidates were speechless with surprise.

But soon, President Netero, with his rich life experience, quickly regained his composure and asked meaningfully, "Your ability transfers your lifespan and vitality to others, right?"

"Yep, that's right," Allen smiled and nodded.

To be precise, it connects a specific target through the unique attributes of the Azeroth Red Dragon.

If the dragon's body contains the lifespan and vitality taken from others, it will consume this stored energy.

If not, it will consume his own lifespan and the life points on his Hunter profession panel to quickly heal the other person, even making them younger.

Of course, this is on the condition that the brain, the most important organ, has not been damaged or killed.

Allen did this partly because he felt that a martial artist like Biscuit Krueger, who was upright and full of honor, should not die so casually, and partly because he desperately wanted to grow taller and more mature.

Otherwise, with the Night Elf's lifespan measured in tens of thousands of years, it would take a hundred or eighty years to pass through adolescence.

But what no one knew was that if this ability were used in reverse, it would take everything that could be taken from the other person...

"Ohohoho! Self-sacrifice, what a remarkable ability. Since candidate Killua has lost his qualification due to intentional murder, I now declare that all candidates present have passed this year's Hunter Exam."

With President Netero's characteristic laugh, the 287th Hunter Exam finally came to an end.

Except for Gon, who was unconscious in the hospital after his match with Hanzo, most of the candidates couldn't help but smile with joy.

However, compared to the normal candidates, Hisoka's smile gave off a sense of excitement, madness, and abnormality, and he continuously emitted a terrifying aura.

Fortunately, he couldn't use any Nen abilities now, like a fierce beast with its teeth and claws removed. No matter how crazy he acted, it didn't need to be taken too seriously.

In stark contrast was Killua, whose eyes were filled with greed and desire for the red dragon's ability.

After all, as long as one is human, they will get injured, age, and die, and Allen's ability could perfectly negate all of this.
