Astral Apostle Chapter 60: This must be the Wood family seeking revenge!


A town in the North, the Hunter's Tavern.

With a creak, two tall and burly men pushed open the door and walked into the lively tavern.

The noisy tavern immediately quieted down, and the people present subconsciously turned their heads to look at the two of them, and saw that the two visitors were dressed as alien hunters. Only then did the liveliness resume, and they frequently looked at these two strangers with curiosity. hunter.

One carries a spear and has flowing medium-length hair. One is carrying a giant axe with... sorry no hair.

It's Baron and Wes.

The two came to the bar. The tavern owner was chatting with a familiar hunter. Seeing the two approaching, he nodded and said:

"The two hunters are from out of town, right? What to drink? Or do you want to find some work?"

"Two cups of fire from the North... In addition, are there any clues or hunters recruited recently."

Weiss sat down and knocked on the bar.

When the tavern owner heard this, he took out a booklet from the drawer of the table and handed it to the two of them, which recorded the latest hunter information.

Weiss took it and flipped through it, while Baron watched silently.

At this time, a hunter who was drinking next to him turned his head to look at the two, and said casually:

"Are you two freelance hunters?"

Baron has recently been self-isolating and has not spoken.

Weiss responded, nodding: "That's right."

This person carefully looked at the two of them and suddenly smiled: "Is it from Baiyuan City?"

Weiss and Baron both turned to stare at him.

When the hunter saw this, he laughed: "Don't be surprised, we all know what happened in Baiyuan City, and most of the hunters ran away. You are not the first to visit our town."

Hearing this, Baron and Weiss were in a complicated mood.

Although the information transmission efficiency is extremely low, the sensational incident of the assassination of the lord by the alien hunter has long spread after more than half a year of fermentation. Hunters who run from Baiyuan City will be pointed wherever they go. , being watched lively.

If they are not the parties, they can happily use it as a conversation point, but now they don't want to mention it at all.

Good friend Jason was buried in this turmoil. The biggest suspect, Root, is safe and sound, and the empire has not dealt with it. This kind of sad past, the two feel resentful every time they think of it.

At this time, both of them were silent and did not respond.

But the hunter didn't notice it, and said with great interest:

"Speaking of which, that guy named Jason really did a sensational thing. In other words, why didn't any hunter kill the lord like him before? Even the lord of our town was suspicious for a while. Originally, we hunters were suspicious. You can enter the city at will, and you will have to be interrogated during that time.”

"If you don't do something wrong, you won't be afraid." Baron's tone was neither salty nor light.

In the days when the two left Baiyuan City, they also discovered the impact of the Jason incident. Many hunters felt the same hatred, but some people felt that this was destroying the image of the hunter group.

I don't know if it's good or bad.

At this time, a hunter next to him interjected and sighed: "However, that guy named Jason is really powerful. I heard that he only experienced the first enhancement, but he killed six or seven alien blood warriors by himself. It's incredible. If he is alive, he might become a big man.”

Baron: "..."

Don't say it, the more you say it, the more heartbroken it gets!

Aware that Balon's face was wrong, Whis hurriedly pressed his shoulders and whispered, "Calm down..."

He still remembered that when Balon picked up the axe and was about to run to the lord's mansion, he was still held down by a hunter. Whis was afraid that Balon would be stimulated, and he rushed back to chop people on an impulse.

Seeing this, the tavern owner suddenly said: "By the way, something seems to have happened in Baiyuan City recently. I heard that someone kidnapped the lord of Baiyuan City from the heavily defended castle. Later, the guards were in the woods. The lord was found there, and he was killed."

When the voice fell, Baron and Weston were stunned.

Root was killed?

God's eyes are open!

The two looked at each other, and both saw surprises in each other's eyes.

"Who did this?" Baron asked eagerly.

"I don't know. The murderer didn't leave a name, and he didn't get caught. No one knows his identity. It's just that he heard that he has three enhancements." The tavern owner shrugged.

Baron and Weiss look at each other.

"Could it be the former Hunter Companion of White Plains City?" Weiss whispered.

"Unlikely, none of them have three enhancements, and no one intends to kill Root."

Baron shook his head, feeling secretly excited.

The mysterious murderer didn't know whether it was out of righteous indignation or other personal grudges, and he took action against Root... But no matter what, this mysterious man did what he wanted to do, and he even wanted to thank the other party.

Hearing the news of Root's hiccup suddenly, Baron felt the stagnant anger that had been smoldering in his chest vented out, and he felt comfortable from head to toe.

At this time, Weiss' eyes moved: "You said, could this murderer be someone Jason knew before?"

"This...it's hard to say."

Baron was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered Jason's rather mysterious origin and surname.

During the time we got along, Jason kept it a secret, never talked about it much, and kept it quite mysterious.

Baron only learned of the family motto of the "Wood Family" from Griff's mouth - die well, no regrets!

There's this kind of family motto...the whole family should be full of men, right?

And Jason seems to have mentioned that everyone in their family is born with divine power.

So it makes sense for this "Wood family" to have a three-time-strengthened powerhouse?

So, is one of Jason's family members who heard rumors from all over the world and sought revenge in anger?

Yes, it must be the Wood family's revenge!

Baron took a deep breath, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the case had been solved.

But he wasn't going to say it... If he guessed right, wouldn't that be causing trouble for Jason's family?

It's better to keep this secret and let outsiders keep in the dark about the identity of the mysterious person!

Baron secretly made up his mind.

When his mental activity was intense, Weiss suddenly remembered something and hesitated:

"By the way, Root is dead, and Baiyuan City will change to a lord, so shall we go back?"

Baron was stunned, hesitant, but his face quickly became firm.

"Now that you're a freelance hunter again, there's no need to go back...Travel around like the old days."

He wasn't a person who liked to go back and forth. He used to feel settled, but Jason's death made him discover the throbbing still hidden deep in his heart.

Instead of continuing to live in a remote village, Baron just wants to return to the nomadic life a few years ago and see how the world has changed in the past few years.

He feels like he's back to the bohemian prodigal son...even though he doesn't fit in at all.

Baron grabbed the wine glass and threw it on the ground in the eyes of everyone's astonishment, as if to pay homage to something, and muttered to himself:

"See Jason, someone has avenged you!"

"I saw I saw..."

On a broad avenue, Zhou Jing had a helpless expression on his face, and pressed Ross's straight arm pointing forward.

There is such a big town in front of you, you can see even if you are blind, what way are you pointing...

At the end of the dirt road, there is a "royal city". The tall city walls and continuous buildings are incomparable to Baiyuan City in terms of area and style.

The royal capital of the Terra Empire, Tarn City!

It has been two months since he left the Baiyuan City area. It only takes about ten days to go straight to the capital with Zhou Jing's footsteps, but he stretched the journey to two months. As long as there are other towns along the way, he will Take a detour to visit and buy a map entry panel locally.

For him, it only took two crossing cycles, two days in the main world.

Today, the area of ​​the known area of ​​the alien world on the panel has expanded dozens of times. A wide and crooked curve extends from Baiyuan City in the north to Tarn City. There are dotted towns in the middle, some of which are like Ordinary towns like Baiyuan City, and some are larger fortress cities.

But the towns I saw along the way were not comparable to the city of Tarn in front of me.

This capital of the world's civilized regime is itself the greatest fortress of mankind!

The chief fortress city named after the royal family name!

"It's finally here, let's go, you idiot, follow me into town."

Zhou Jing greeted him and walked along the road to the city gate, with Ross following behind.

Soon a long dragon appeared in front of me. Farmers, merchants, residents and other people of all shapes and sizes were waiting here to be interrogated and entered the city, and they were fully discharged to Erli.

Zhou Jing came to the gate of the city. The place was extremely crowded. At first glance, there were twenty or thirty guards performing inspections on entering the city. There were also archers on the crenels of the inner wall who were patrolling the pedestrians entering and leaving with eagle-like eyes. It is several grades higher than Baiyuan City.

His behavior of not lining up to observe, was quickly noticed by the guards, and the two guards immediately surrounded him.

"If you want to enter the city and queue up at the back, don't hang around near the city gate!"

Zhou Jing saw this and asked, "I am a hunter of alien beasts, can I enter the city directly?"

"Alien beast hunter?" The guard looked at Zhou Jing carefully and waved his hand: "That's not possible, there is an order recently that anyone must go through an inspection before entering the city, especially those who have experienced alien blood enhancement. "

Zhou Jing's face did not change, and the secret thought was sure enough.

Since the news that he killed Lute spread, many towns have been in shock. Under the order of the lord, the hunter's privilege not to be inspected has been temporarily revoked. Instead, they will be strictly inspected.

However, there is no problem in doing this in the capital. After all, it is the capital. It is too unstable to let people with extraordinary powers enter at will.

Zhou Jing was about to go to the back to line up, but heard a warning from a guard:

"Foreign hunters must go to the imperial hunter's station to register and check before entering the city."

Zhou Jing heard the words, asked a little, and then figured out the situation.

The imperial hunters are an important force in maintaining the security near the capital, but they are not stationed in the capital. Instead, they have established an attached city not far from the capital, where they train, live, and cultivate newcomers, similar to a military camp. , is the headquarters of the Imperial Hunters.

Only a small number of imperial hunters who are absolutely trusted to stay in the royal capital for a long time to protect the safety of the capital, as well as the guardians of the royal city, palace guards, and guards of various tribes.

One of the goals of Zhou Jing's coming to the capital was to become an imperial hunter and obtain the highest quality extraordinary resources. The formalities and tests for enlisting the imperial hunter must be completed at the resident, and the resident hunter will verify whether he can join.

He asked about the location and set off immediately. After walking for a while, a camp appeared in sight.

It looks like a heavily fortified town, with hunters coming and going all wearing different beasts and equipment, the first time the ratio is higher than that of ordinary people.

'Inexplicably felt like home...'

Zhou Jing shook his head and approached with Ross, but was quickly stopped by the soldiers standing guard at the door.

"This is the imperial hunter station, don't approach it at will."

"I am a freelance hunter, this is my companion, I want to join the army, do you know if the imperial hunter is still recruiting?"

Zhou Jing went straight to the point and reported his intentions.

When the gatekeeper heard the words, he asked Zhou Jing to wait for a while, and then immediately ordered his colleagues to report.

About three minutes later, a hunter who seemed to have a high status walked out and looked at Zhou Jing:

"Do you want to be an imperial hunter?"

"Having this idea~IndoMTL.com~ do not intend to continue to wander outside."

Zhou Jing nodded and said something serious.

Baron told him before about the difference between imperial hunters and free hunters. Free hunters tend to be more mercenaries or volunteers, while imperial hunters are similar to regular troops. They are organized and receive systematic training. What they learn is Thai The pull empire integrates the techniques of multiple tribes to cultivate hunters, and sums up a comprehensive training plan.

Various hunting skills, information on exotic animals, survival in the wild, weapon memory, hunter's breath... all included.

So although the free hunters are a tradition, they are now a wild way to go. The imperial hunters are the orthodox academies... Of course, there are a lot of actual combats in this kind of academy.

Many imperial hunters have been selected to settle in from their apprenticeships, and have undergone years of boring training before using the alien blood enhancement.

But there are also quite a few imperial hunters who are transferred from free hunters, and the Terra Empire has always been keen to include "wild" hunters.

So hearing Zhou Jing's request at this time, the hunter who came to negotiate was not surprised and said:

"Okay, then come with me, you can call me Cole, I'm one of the resident stewards... What's your name?"

Zhou Jing raised his brows.

"My name is...Jace."

Cole nodded, then looked at Ross, who was expressionless behind Zhou Jing.

"What about your companion?"

Zhou Jing's face did not change color:

"Rosen."
