I Have A Professional Hunter As My Subordinate
As for what will happen to them in the future, if they are lucky, they may be rescued by passers-by, or be swept to other islands by the waves and survive.
And the guys with bad luck.
Then, they can only take out the agreement they signed when they signed up for the Hunter Exam, which stated that they would not be responsible for any life or death.
In this world full of crises, human life is the least valuable.
The dispute on the ship has begun to intensify.
From time to time, someone would be knocked down, dragged, or thrown away, falling from the deck into the sea.
The number of applicants is constantly decreasing.
And just when this situation gradually gets bigger.
"Stop it, everyone!!"
The door of the wheelhouse opened, and a loud shout echoed across the deck.
"If anyone makes trouble here again, I will throw him down immediately!!"
The captain, wearing a captain's hat and with a pipe dangling from his lips, stood up.
He was short but very imposing.
The distinctive red nose with wine troughs trembled, and his sharp eyes scanned the entire audience.
Everyone subconsciously stopped what they were doing, and the scene became quiet.
"Very good."
He slowly exhaled a puff of smoke: "We still have a long way to go, and I don't want any more trouble to happen."
The drunken red-nosed captain said this, his eyes lingering for a moment on a man in a black suit in the corner.
Then he looked at the audience, nodded, and turned away.
"This year, there is an incredible guy."
The moment he turned around, he muttered to himself in a voice that only he could hear.
The deck of the passenger ship gradually became calm.
After the captain came out to take charge of the situation, all the applicants on the ship behaved themselves.
No one wants to be thrown off the boat before reaching the exam venue and end their journey early.
However, when they are settled, the real exam has just begun.
Huh, Hoo!
As time went by, gusts of cold wind gradually blew over the sea.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, and darkness enveloped the entire sea.
Crash!
The waves surged and swept in, and the passenger ship began to shake and bump.
With a crackling sound, raindrops poured down, filling the entire ocean with violent storms.
"Woo!"
Inside the cabin, many applicants also let out bursts of wailing.
Such violent shaking and bumping made these guys, who looked strong on the outside but were actually weak on the inside, seasick and fell to the ground, feeling so sore all over that they had no strength left.
"It really is getting worse every year."
The captain saw this scene and couldn't help but shake his head.
They can't even withstand such a small amount of wind and waves; it can be said that they can't even touch the threshold of being a Hunter.
Even if they arrived at the Hunter Exam venue, they would just go in and die.
"But fortunately, there is always a little surprise."
He looked into the cabin, and saw the young man in a suit who was sitting there motionless with his eyes closed.
"Where did he come on board?"
The captain asked the first mate beside him.
The first mate immediately replied: "He came on board from Whale Island."
"Whale Island?"
The drunken, red-nosed captain smacked his lips.
If he remembered correctly, nineteen years ago, there was also a guy who boarded the ship from Whale Island.
At that time, he was also in charge of the passenger ship.
The guy at that time left a deep impression on him.
As expected, that guy became the only one who passed the Hunter Exam at that time.
Later, he became a senior member of the Hunter Association and a very good hunter, accomplishing many great feats.
That guy's name seems to be Ging Freecss.
It seems that the small Whale Island is also a very interesting place.
…
In the captain's room, the orange-yellow light from the oil lamp illuminated the entire room.
"Can you tell me your name?"
The captain asked the only candidate who came here in an extremely friendly tone.
"Lan."
Lan straightened his clothes and responded.
Well, even though the darkness in the room was dispelled, the black suit the other person was wearing still made people feel a little pressured.
The drunken red-nosed captain subconsciously wanted to pick up his pipe but held back:
"You don't seem surprised at all that I called you here?"
"Hmm."
Lan nodded and said: "Before I came to take the exam, I heard about this from one of my subordinates who is a professional hunter."
"This is also part of the Hunter Exam before entering the field."
Take the exam, subordinate, professional hunters…
Can these words form a sentence?!
The drunken red-nosed captain couldn't help but look a little weird: "What else do you know?"
He couldn't help but ask.
Although he knows that the man in a suit in front of him may have an extraordinary background, to have a professional hunter as his subordinate…
Well, in this world, amazing things are possible.
"I also know, or should I say guess, that the annual Hunter Exam is held on January 7th, which should have a reason."
Lan looked out the window. It was still windy and rainy outside.
"At this time of year, it is a stormy season, and the fishing boats have already collected their nets and returned home."
"Only the Hunter Association's passenger ships are transporting candidates via sea."
"This will not only ensure that the association's ships have unimpeded routes but also allow them to use the storm as the preliminary exams to screen candidates during the voyage."
He turned around, looked at the drunken red-nosed captain, and said: "So, I should have passed the current exam, right?"
