Blood of the Hunting God

"It seems that the resilience is not bad."

Seeing Aibut wake up, William smiled, and the hound Fergus lying next to him yawned and wagged his tail twice to express his friendliness to Aibut.

"Your Excellency Sheriff...I am... Your Excellency Hunter? You have returned?!"

Reaching out his hand to touch the blindfold covering one eye, Aibut sat up, and then saw Hunter and Abigail sitting together by the campfire, and the whole person seemed a little excited for a while.

"Um……"

The hunter nodded slightly, raised his hand and shook it as a greeting.

In some places farther away, the corpses of the bandits could be seen gathered together and set on fire.This is a precautionary measure to prevent the decay of corpses from breeding bacteria and viruses and causing plagues. Although it may seem a little inhumane, it is quite appropriate to use it on these bandits who kill and rob.

Turning his head and looking at the other people beside the bonfire, Aibut saw Alhazred. This scholar had only arrived in Starry Sky Town a few days before the disaster, so Aibut did not recognize him. Renlai only vaguely remembered that he seemed to be a member of the hunting god team.

At this moment, Karnis came forward from not far away, and greeted Aibut.Aibut, who had just recovered a bit, also nodded politely, then counted the number of people in his heart, and suddenly felt a little heavy.

There are more than 60 people in the Hunting God Squad, but only so many have returned?

Even if the battle of hunting the gods was won, the result was so tragic...

"It's great that you... are back."

Aibut was deeply moved, and in the end he just sighed softly and said.

"Uh, I always feel that you have misunderstood something. In short, our people have already received some of the townspeople and villagers who you launched to flee at the border. We left a part of our manpower in the wilderness and will lead those people to arrive. A safe place. As for the words in front of you now, we are a small team formed to go to the star capital, a new team to hunt the star gods, understand?"

Noticing the gloomy expression on Aibute, Karnis shook his head, sat down and explained to him angrily.

"Yes, that's right, that is to say, you plan to dominate the starry sky..."

Aibut, who realized that he was thinking too much, showed a surprised expression, but he soon realized something, and the surprise on his face quickly turned into shock.

The new hunting god team?

Hunting star god team?

Lord Hunter, and these hunters, are they going to kill the master of the starry sky? !

The god of the starry sky who has protected the country of stars for thousands of years... No, no, that is not a shelter at all, it is just a breeding. It is an evil god who uses the blood of the same race to sacrifice and raises humans as animals.Human beings have no choice but to accept the protection of this evil god, so they have to sacrifice babies and adults as food to each other, and anyone with powerful Children with fighting talents will be killed quickly, and as a result, they decline from year to year.

Today, the earth goddess in the corrupt field has fallen, forcing humans to succumb to the external pressure of the evil god.

Although in the sea of ​​alienation in the southeast, the corrupt mother goddess is still threatening a large number of towns, but compared with the earth goddess, the frequency and intensity of monsters from the mother goddess attacking towns are much lower.Although no one knows the reason for this, if the situation is properly controlled, it is indeed a very effective strategic path to eliminate the Star Lord first, and then deal with the Mother Goddess.

That is to say...

Is it time for the three gods who oppressed the human civilization and caused countless bloodshed and disasters for thousands of years to start a war against human beings?

Lord Hunter, you have already decided to fire the first shot in this war.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Aibut, who couldn't describe his mood for a while, turned his head to look at the hunter.

"Hmm... kill the master of the starry sky... kill it..."

Facing this hunter who had met several times before, the hunter just nodded slightly, stretched out his hand and stroked his neck, and said to Aibut very seriously.

The hunter's idea has always been very simple. If it is not pleasing to the eye and cannot be accepted, then kill the opponent, or be killed by the opponent. Anyway, there is no possibility of coexistence.

The ruler of the starry sky said that he was protecting human beings, but he has been demanding blood sacrifices on a large scale, and he also wants to deprive the surrendered human beings of the possibility of growing up again, and even the "shelter" itself is not good enough

, there will often be monsters crossing the Star God barrier and attacking towns.From the hunter's point of view, such a thing is completely unacceptable. It is simply that the situation of using people as pigs must be destroyed no matter what.Before, because the issue of the Goddess of the Earth was at the forefront, I couldn't pay attention to the situation on this side. Now that I have chosen, I must kill this so-called God of the Starry Sky, otherwise the hunter's heart will not let go. The situation is as simple as that. .

No matter what other people think, at least for the hunter himself, he thinks so.

"Can I join the action?"

Understanding the responsibilities and missions of the team in front of him, Aibut swallowed, and asked with some anticipation.

"No way."

Before the hunter subconsciously nodded in agreement, William refused aloud.

"Your strength is too weak, your personality is not smooth enough, and you still have many injuries on your body. To be honest, the help you can provide is very limited. Considering the various unexpected situations we may encounter, it may be difficult for you to adapt to us by then. the various situations we are facing.”

"You are not suitable."

William said to Aibut as tactfully as possible.

"That's right... sorry..."

Aibut, who also realized that his strength was indeed too poor, smiled a little embarrassedly, scratched his head and answered in a low voice.

"If you really want to help, continue to help those townspeople who escaped across the border. Or you can go to Yanyan Town, our other team went there, intending to persuade the local lord to establish a Defensive line, for the unexpected, and you should be able to find something to do if you go there."

"Well...I see."

Facing William's suggestion, Aibut nodded slightly without saying anything, then he turned his head slightly, and then saw the man tied up with rope not far from the bonfire. head wolf.

Didn't they kill the bandit leader?

Aibut didn't know why and looked at William in front of him again.

"Oh, he, he's not ready yet, this guy is our ticket to the city."

Facing the doubt in the hunter's eyes, William just smiled and said, the expression on his face became a little mysterious.

Chapter 10: The King and the Prime Minister

Under the brilliance of the starry sky, the man closed his eyes and sat quietly in the darkness.

The surrounding environment seemed extremely quiet, there was no light in the whole room, only pure darkness.

Such a quiet and dark environment is probably a depressing place that is difficult for ordinary people to endure for a long time.However, the man is very adapted to this, as if he has lived in such an environment for a long, long time.

When fear persists for too long, it often becomes numb.

And if the numb time continues, it is possible to adapt.

As for once you get used to it completely, after it becomes a habit, you may even enjoy it and become immersed in it.

Although I don't want to admit it, maybe the fact is like this?

Today, if I still want to think seriously, if I want to calm down and think carefully, I can only be in this environment, in this... and when I was imprisoned and tortured by the church, and that In a dark room similar to the environment in which he was imprisoned...

Only by returning to the state at that time, and returning to the dark world at that time, can I gain the ability to think again.

squeak-

The door was gently pushed open the next moment. "

A ray of light shone in from outside the dark house, illuminating the man's decadent, but very clean and tidy face, as well as the clothes he was wearing, which were by no means luxurious clothes that ordinary people could have.

The man who had been in the dark environment for a long time narrowed his eyes slightly, stretched out his incomplete left hand with only three fingers left in front of his eyes, so that he could slowly adapt to this change in light.

And the person who opened the door had already walked into the room, closed the door behind him very carefully, then walked slowly in front of the man, knelt down on one knee, and lowered his head.

"Flynn..."

The man spoke softly.

"Flynn...my Flynn...my only 'prime minister', my most trusted attendant, Flynn."

Slowly, as if in sleep, as if gradually waking up from sleep, the voice of a man chattering.

"This time, what news did you bring me?"

At the end of the words, the man looked at the man in front of him. This deformed and ugly man, who seemed to have nothing special, was the one he trusted the most, and he could even be said to be the only subordinate he trusted, his attendant, his prime minister. , his companion, his friend.

"The mercenary regiment sent by the church and the border lords to pursue the fugitive tenant farmers has a large number of missing records."

"After completing the killing of gods, the hunting god team may have returned to the border of the star kingdom, and clashed with those private soldiers and mercenaries."

"In other words, the rumored hunter has returned."

named blessing

Lin's deformed man slowly raised his head, looked at the man in front of him and said in a deep voice.

"Choosing to return to the Kingdom of Stars by the same route, instead of leaving from the border, means that the hunting god team led by the hunter did not choose to stop here, but continued to fight. And they have no plans to change the battlefield, Instead, prepare to deal with the ruler nearby, or go to the sea of ​​alienation to face the corrupt mother goddess."

"Of course, there may be a situation where the troops are divided into two groups. After all, we are still not sure how many members of the Hunting God Squad survived, nor can we be sure whether they have received some kind of return from the fall of the Earth Goddess enough to enhance their own strength."

"The only thing that's certain is that they're back. That said, this is the best chance we've got to reach them, maybe the only one."

In a calm voice, Fulin had already stood up and walked to the side of the man.

He was very serious about analyzing the information he knew to the man, analyzing the information he knew.

It is not difficult to see from the words that the man has been paying attention to the hunter team since a long time ago, earlier than many people, and has been secretly observing the far away in the sky. At that time, he had just arrived in Star Town hunter.

"Yeah... the only chance, my only chance, our only chance."

The man closed his eyes, murmured and repeated Fulin's words, his fingers slowly clenched into fists.

"Please rest assured, my king."

Flynn bent slightly, bowed to the man, and spoke in a calm voice.

"I have sent trustworthy subordinates. No matter which town the hunters pass by, they will definitely be able to obtain relevant information, and take action to find a way to contact them, so as to convey your will."

"They will need our help, they will, my lord."

An ugly man named Fulin, with sarcoids on his face, and burn marks covering half of his face, and only one eye, said sincerely to Wang in front of him.

Kingdom of Stars, King, Gutasov.

For thousands of years, they have always been blood descendants of the orthodox human empire royal family on this land.

A contemporary king who rightly rules the country.

However, in fact, it is just a sad puppet, without any real power at all, and only able to retain some of the royal family's dignity, a joke that is not valued by anyone.

"Well... will they need me?"

The man named Gutasov showed a slight smile at this moment.

"It's us who really need them..."

Today's citizens of the Star Kingdom only know the existence of the Star God Church and the Noble Council.

As the king, Gutasov himself, his name, even in the capital of the stars, few people know.

How sad.

How ridiculous.

There seemed to be phantom pain in the left hand with only three fingers left.

The blade that the executioner of the church swung down indifferently seemed to still be in front of his eyes.

"They're going to need us."

Gutasov spoke again, only a cold determination remained in his voice.

"In order to defeat that being, they will need us."

"And we also need their power to destroy everything."

I will never continue to live with the puppet king in front of me.

He wants to regain his own supreme kingship.

Get back what you deserve as a king, and get back the power and glory that your family deserves.

For this, he must use all available power.

The legendary savior, hunter.

This power must be used by him.

Let him guide the direction of the sharp knife, let him control the direction the sharp blade is aimed at, to destroy the so-called master of the stars, the church, the nobles, and all the existences that might hinder him.

Then, I'll be the real king!

In the eyes, there seemed to be an invisible flame called ambition and desire burning.

Gutasov waved lightly, and Flynn turned around and left the room.

The door opened and closed again, and light fell into the room briefly, but darkness finally enveloped everything, covering the man again.

And in the bustling city, the days that seemed to be the same as before, continued like this.
