There wouldn't be a single living normal person inside. Ron looked at Gel and Cheryl, unsure of how they planned to act. But it was certain they wouldn't rush in to fight directly. Up until now, Gel hadn't mentioned anything about combat to Ron and Wendy. This meant that Gel might not need Ron and Wendy to participate in the battle. Cheryl had a thought. She materialized something resembling a drone. Then, Cheryl took out a container and inserted it into the drone. Under Cheryl's control, the drone flew high into the sky, hovering directly above Kel Prison. The next moment, a large amount of liquid was sprayed out, scattering everywhere. It was very fine, like a light drizzle. The mist descended. Bit by bit, it gradually covered the entire Keller Prison. Ron could clearly see that as the mist fell, the eerie aura surrounding Keller Prison dissipated rapidly. Before long, the beings inside seemed to sense something was wrong. A roar sounded. A figure suddenly rushed out from within Kel Prison. Immediately after, another one. These beings were similar to Shusuke Ito and others. But they were also different. The strange aura around them was even stronger. "Over-mutated!" "They've become pure monsters!" Ron recalled the transformations of Cook and Charlotte in the Colosseum. "So this is what they look like after complete mutation?" "They're no longer human." "But monsters." "Genuine monsters." These monsters exuded an extremely terrifying aura; even among A-rank beings, they were exceptionally powerful—difficult to handle and even harder to kill. And there wasn't just one such monster. There were many. However, the ones that appeared later had slightly weaker auras. Gel took out a glass bottle. The bottle contained a viscous liquid. Deep purple. At a glance, it was clearly undrinkable. Swinging the glass bottle, Gel hurled it toward the monsters. "Bang!" When it struck a monster, the glass bottle exploded violently. The liquid inside scattered everywhere. It landed on the monsters. "Sizzle!" A puff of smoke rose; the parts of the monsters touched by the purple liquid began to corrode, and the corroded areas kept expanding, spreading outward. The effect was like sulfuric acid touching sugar. But this wasn't sulfuric acid—it was something much worse. "Roar!" The monsters let out sharp howls, clearly in great pain. "Bang!" Unable to maintain their balance, they fell heavily to the ground. Gel took out several more glass bottles and continued to hurl them at the monsters. One monster's eyes flashed; using its tentacles, it attacked the glass bottle, trying to knock it away. But the moment it touched it, the glass bottle exploded. The purple liquid splashed onto the monster. Another monster grew smarter, using a stone to attack the glass bottle. "Ding!" The collision produced a crisp sound. But the glass bottle didn't shatter. Nor was it knocked away; instead, after floating briefly in mid-air, it headed toward the monster again. "Bang!" Upon touching the monster's body, the glass bottle exploded. "Bang!" All the monsters fell under Gel's attacks. Not a single one reached Ron and the others. Keller Prison fell into a deathly silence; there wasn't a trace of life. Gel took out a map and made a mark on it. "Keller Prison has been dealt with." "We'll search the surrounding area for three days, acting separately. After three days, we'll regroup here." Then, Gel looked at Ron and Wendy. "Ron, Wendy, you two will act together with Kaka." Kaka was the C-rank member among Gel's four disciples. The team was divided into four parts, each responsible for one direction—this was Gel's plan. "Move out." After speaking, Gel turned and left. Kaka looked at Ron and Wendy. "Let's get started." "Okay." Ron and Wendy exchanged glances and nodded. At this moment, they were still immersed in the scene they had just witnessed. Gel's fighting style was completely beyond Ron's expectations. Too simple, too brutal. Ron knew that Gel specialized in poison. But he had previously thought that Gel's combat style would involve regular fighting combined with poison and hidden weapons—similar to the tactics in martial arts stories. However, Ron hadn't expected Gel to adopt such a method. First, she used large-scale poison mist to clear the area. Eliminating the weaker monsters first. Then, to deal with monsters with stronger vitality, she used higher-concentration, more targeted poison. Those glass bottles were very special. When they hit ordinary objects, they were indestructible. They only shattered upon touching monsters. A single bottle of poison took down one monster. And these were A-rank monsters. They weren't quick-made monsters like the monster girl, but were transformed Nen users from the Taris Nation. Ron couldn't help but glance back in the direction Gel had left. "As expected of one of the twelve members of the Hunter Association." "Indeed, very strong." In the original storyline, poison wasn't prominently featured. It wasn't mentioned often. One instance was that members of the Zoldyck family undergo specialized poison resistance training from a young age; ordinary poisons can't threaten them. The second was during the Yorknew City arc, the confrontation between Chrollo and Silva. The third was the Crystal Feather Bone. "However." Ron thought carefully. "Gel being able to create such poison surely wasn't something done overnight; otherwise, she wouldn't have delayed coming for so long." "Such poison is certainly not universal but highly targeted." "That is, this poison can deal with those monsters but may not be effective against other creatures." "Otherwise, Gel could become the chairman of the Hunter Association." "Moreover, the poison needs to make contact to take effect." "Generally speaking, Nen users in battle will guard against this; poisoning a Nen user isn't easy." "Those mutated monsters actually have significant flaws." "If it were Chimera Ants, Gel's poison probably wouldn't hit so easily." "But if Gel gave her poison to someone proficient in combat to deal with the Chimera Ants, the situation would be different." "In fact, Netero used a similar method to kill the Ant King." "As the chairman of the Hunter Association, Netero used the poison of the Rose on the Ant King." "The poison made by Gel is probably quite inferior to the Rose." As Ron walked, he summarized in his mind. "The twelve members of the Hunter Association are not weak." "They may not all excel in sudden encounters, but in their fields of expertise, they're very strong." "Don't easily offend a top-tier poison-type Nen user." "In sudden encounters, they might not be very strong." "But as long as they have enough preparation time, it would be very easy for a top-tier poison-type Nen user to kill someone." "To deal with them, one needs to enhance perception and defensive capabilities." ----------------------- You can read up to 120 Advanced chapters! Patreon(.)com/IDKjust
