Moses lowered his head at this moment.
He had never thought about becoming the center of attention before coming here, so when faced with the sudden and numerous scrutiny, his first thought was to get rid of the image that Pyon had created for him without his knowledge.
Because Moses is self-aware.
To be in front of people or behind the scenes, Moses actually preferred to stay behind the scenes.
Especially in such an occasion where all kinds of heavyweights gather, Moses didn't want to stand out.
So much so that when Pariston suddenly spoke to him, Moses, considering Pariston's notorious personality in the original work, chose not to respond without knowing the situation.
Later, he also witnessed Pariston's inconsistent words and actions, which unintentionally evoking a sense of disgust.
Now, Moses can't help but feel that he needs to stay away from people like Pariston.
This is a thought that Moses subconsciously came up with based on his understanding of Pariston as a character from the original work, leading to a subconscious aversion.
It's because of this that Moses doesn't want to have too much interaction with Pariston. In his opinion, that would only give Pariston a chance to disgust him.
However, just as Moses made this decision, he suddenly thought of the existence of 'Perception'.
Looking at the sources of rewards he has received so far, they all encourage him to take the initiative to create 'highlight moments'.
Especially the battle with Illumi, as it made him vaguely grasp the connection to the concept of impression.
Therefore…
At this moment, he is thinking–
If he had just followed Pyon's solemn introduction and acted in a high-profile manner in front of everyone, he might have shot himself in the foot, but would it also create more opportunities to achieve impressive moments that could earn rewards?'
For example, someone like Pariston, who never showed his intentions...
If this guy wants to disgust him, then if he retaliates in the same way, will he gain the favor of Perception?
Thus, Moses's thoughts and concept is quietly changing.
After the inconsequential interlude, since Moses did not need to participate in the Nen Exorcism, the attention of everyone present shifted to the three Nen Exorcists.
One of them, a woman wearing strange clothing with a totemic headband, was the only Nen Exorcist in the association. Her name is Ella Miranda.
The other two male Nen Exorcists also had quite distinctive outfits.
One was middle-aged, wearing a tall hat, draped in a black floor-length robe, with several black stripes on his face, named Aldin Clay.
The remaining male Nen Exorcist is the oldest of the three, named Jin Kashima.
He looked to be about fifty years old, with a robust figure. He was dressed in a tattered monk's robe. He looked like a wandering monk, but with a shaved head and many traces of the years on his face.
Through Pyon's introduction, Moses learned the names of these three Nen Exorcists.
Afterwards, everyone moved to the monitoring room.
On the neatly arranged monitors, the real-time situation of three rooms was displayed.
Each room is covered by six surveillance cameras from different angles, leaving no blind spots.
The three Nen Exorcists, under Bean's arrangement, each entered one of the rooms.
Moses stood in an inconspicuous corner, staring at the room on the screen from the distance, propping his chin with his hand, and a look of contemplation appeared in his eyes.
'Were the rooms deliberately separated, and each Nen Exorcist placed in one room, to actively trigger the Nen placed on the Swamp People?'
Moses speculated in his mind.
Pyon was standing next to Moses. Considering that Moses had just arrived, she lowered her voice and took the initiative to explain:
"We have tried various methods, but we still cannot sense the Nen placed on the Swamp People. Therefore, even if the Nen Exorcist is ready to remove the Nen, they won't know where to start. In order to make the Nen Exorcist perceive the Nen that needs to be removed…"
"So we can only try to exorcise the Nen when the Swamp People activates their ability."
Moses continued Pyon's unfinished words.
Pyon nodded upon hearing this.
Having seen Moses's analytical ability, she was not surprised that Moses could guess this.
"The result of this Nen Exorcism will determine one thing."
While Pyon was speaking, she looked at a tall but ordinary-looking man in the crowd at the front.
Moses asked: "Determine what?"
"See that person?"
Pyon pointed at the ordinary-looking man.
Moses could tell at a glance that the other party's Nen Skills are very solid, but other than that, he couldn't sense anything else.
"That man is from the International Permit Agencies."
"Oh?"
Moses was slightly startled.
'Sure enough, people from the International Permit Agencies were also involved...'
Although Swamp Man is most likely an artificially created Nen Ability, the potential harm posed was no less significant than the calamities from the Dark Continent.
Therefore, it was within Moses's expectation that the International Permit Agencies, which specializes in overseeing such situations, would intervene.
To be honest, because of his identity as a transmigrator and his ability seemed to have some kind of connection with the Swamp Man, what Moses is most afraid at the moment was the International Permit Agencies, which, to some extent, represented V5.
He doesn't want to be treated as a 'suspicious object' by the International Permit Agencies and thrown into a containment facility, never to see the light of day again.
Thinking about this, Moses looked at Pyon and asked: "What exactly is going on?"
"If the exorcism is successful and the Swamp People can be restored to their original state, then the International Permit Agencies will hand over the control to the association and act as a facilitator to assist the association in finding Davidson as soon as possible."
Having said this, Pyon shifted her gaze, looked at the monitor, and said calmly: "You know that to solve the issue with the Swamp Man, we must find the one responsible as soon as possible. Before that... the International Permit Agencies just wants to confirm one thing."
"Uh-huh?"
Moses waited for more information.
Pyon continued: "Can the Swamp People return to normal? If not, the International Permit Agencies believes that 'terminate on the spot upon discovery' is the most secure way."
"Understood."
Moses nodded slightly.
The result of this exorcism will determine how the situation would be handled.
Until Davison was found, it remained uncertain whether the approach favored by the International Permit Agencies, seen as weed removal to the last root, or the people-centric approach of the Hunter Association, would prevail.
Everything depended on the outcome.
At this moment, an ordinary person was sent into each room where the three Nen Exorcists were.
Presumably, these three ordinary people are all Swamp People confirmed by the Hunter Association.
Inside the monitoring room.
Everyone is paying close attention to the images on the monitor.
As expected, without the presence of a third person, the Swamp People who was sent into the room quickly triggered their ability and attacked the Nen Exorcist.
Ella, the association's female Nen Exorcist, removed the totemic headband from her head.
Aldin, who had black stripes on his face, conjured a bulky black worm with a wave of his hand.
Kashima, dressed in a tattered monk's robe, took out a string of visibly stained prayer beads.
Under everyone's gaze, the three Nen Exorcists seemed to have finally sensed the target of exorcism at this moment.
Ella tossed the totemic headband, and it suddenly enlarged, with the totems rising like solid objects, falling from the sky and surrounding the Swamp People, trapping him in it.
Aldin commanded the black worms to wrap around the Swamp People, a simple yet brutal approach.
The prayer beads on Kashima's hand glowed with the luster of his Nen, and then materialized into Nen threads, tightly entangling the Swamp People.
Then-
In just ten seconds…
The three Nen Exorcists put away their abilities, and gestured towards the hidden camera.
That represented the end of the Nen Exorcism.
It's just that this process…
was beyond the expectations of the three Nen Exorcists.
