Chapter 97 Hundreds of Billions in Startup Funds
Eligi wasn't particularly interested in Neon, because he himself knew a lot about the Hunter world and could be considered a semi-prophet.
The nighttime auction proceeded smoothly without any disturbance from the tour groups.
More than 200 items were auctioned off for nearly 100 billion yuan, which even made Ailigi somewhat tempted.
But in the end, I decided against it. Three hundred billion and one hundred billion are just numbers to Aligi now, and there's not much difference.
After the auction ended, Ailiji immediately moved on to find the Thousand Ears Society.
The Thousand Ears Society is an underground intermediary organization among Hunters, specializing in connecting Nen users with gangs and other underground forces, arranging bodyguards, etc.
Secret operations such as intelligence gathering.
The outposts are usually located in slums, are dilapidated in appearance, and are kept highly secret from the outside world.
Typically, only one person is responsible for the permanent operation of a base. It is a key channel for Nen users in the underworld to obtain high-risk commissions, and the work they undertake is mostly underground work that cannot be seen in the light of day.
The entry requirement is naturally to know how to use the ability to recite.
Kurapika got his job at the Nosra gang through the Thousand Ears Association, while Nosra recruited Nen users through the Thousand Ears Association.
Therefore, Qian Er is not a secretive entity within the underworld.
Around midnight, Eligi drove Hinata and Kakashi into a slum and stopped at a three-story building with slightly peeling exterior walls.
Because it's a slum, it wasn't brightly lit like Yokesun; instead, it was like a dead city, completely silent.
However, Ailiji could sense that countless eyes were watching from that dark corner, or rather, watching the vehicle.
I'm afraid that if Ailiji leaves for a while, the whole car will disappear.
Ignoring the gazes from the shadows, Ailiji went straight into the building. There were still no lights, only a faint sliver of moonlight shining into the building.
There was also a faint light emanating from the computer.
A short-haired woman with a flower tattoo on her chest stood in front of the computer, slightly surprised to see someone come in, because these places rarely see more than a handful of people throughout the year.
"What kind of job are you looking for?" The short-haired woman moved her fingers, quickly forming words between them with her spiritual energy.
This is a little trick to test whether the people who come in know Nen, and it was also a little trick that Bisky used to train Erigi and his group to use "Nen".
Actually, even without this little trick, any woman with short hair would know that Hinata and Eligi who came in knew Nen, because the two of them didn't hide their aura, and the mere surface "Entanglement" gave people a very powerful feeling.
Eric glanced at the short-haired woman and said, "We are employers. We sell collectibles."
"Oh, that's quite a surprise. I didn't expect you to come in person. We'll have someone come to find you." The short-haired woman stood up in surprise.
"I'm in a hurry. I've already brought the collection. Where is the person who collected it?" Eligi didn't waste any words; he was genuinely in a rush.
"The buyer's employer has entrusted us with the entire process, but we didn't expect you to arrive so late, so we weren't prepared and you may need to wait a moment."
The short-haired woman picked up her phone, dialed a number, explained the situation, and asked Ailiji and his group to wait.
After waiting for an hour, a middle-aged man with disheveled hair came in, glanced at Eliji, and asked, "Where are the collectibles?"
"Let's find a more open space," Eligi said, glancing at the messy house.
"Let's go up to the third floor, it's cleaner there." The middle-aged man walked ahead, and Ailiji followed without asking any questions.
The situation didn't improve much on the third floor; it was still very messy, but there were indeed many more empty spaces.
However, there was a musty smell, and it was unclear how long it had been since anyone had lived here.
Eliji glanced at it, said nothing, and pointed two fingers at the black square in his palm, chanting, "Release!"
Then several barriers appeared in the room, and many things appeared in the barriers that were originally empty.
"Hmm! That's a really convenient ability."
The middle-aged man praised the collection and then began to inspect it. Three hours passed in the blink of an eye. Finally, he had looked through all the items and said, "They are all top-quality genuine articles. Give me an account that can receive large transfers, and we will transfer the money to you directly."
Elligie directly gave Bisky's account information to the other party. It was fortunate that Bisky's account was available; other accounts might not have been able to accept transfers of hundreds of billions of jini at once.
It seems that only accounts with company names can accept this money.
For Aliji, transferring tens of millions of dollars to his own fake account was a hassle, so he could only deposit a few million dollars into the account each month for daily expenses.
"Tick-tock, tick-tock - the payment came in very quickly, in just one hour. After receiving the money, Ailiji didn't linger and waved goodbye to the middle-aged man."
Afterwards, Eligi hurriedly returned to the gangster building, and for some reason, he found Gaara and asked, "Where are those two Zoldycks?"
"They left. They left when the auction started, and the Ten Elders also lifted the bounty on the Phantom Troupe, saying that the people had been killed by the assassins they sent," Gaara said, not entirely aware of the situation.
Eliji nodded, having a general idea in mind, but didn't pay much attention to it. He then found a room and began the largest summoning in history.
The moment the door opened, Eligi froze. Tsunade and Bisky had appeared in the room at some point.
Seeing the two of them, Ailiji was somewhat surprised, yet it was also understandable.
"Weren't you outside? Why did you suddenly come back?" Eligi asked, feigning ignorance.
"Hmph, of course it's to prevent you from causing any trouble," Bisky said matter-of-factly.
Eligi has essentially tacitly accepted Bisky's existence, treating it as a form of oversight by the Hunter Association.
While this might expose the Hunter Association to many secrets, it would also provide them with a degree of protection from the Hunter Association.
That's why Eligi half-revealed his Nen ability to Bisji.
But it doesn't matter now, because Eligi is about to become a top-tier being.
Based on the calculation that one character can be summoned for 200 million, Ailigi now has 30 billion in funds, which means he can summon 150 people.
On average, each person provides a boost of 5,000 Qi to Eligi, so 150 multiplied by 5,000 equals 750,000 Qi.
Adding his own nearly 100,000 units of Qi, that's 850,000 units of Qi. Very few people can break through his defenses at this level of Qi.
As mentioned before, Qi can enhance various bodily functions.
