Astral Apostle Chapter 45: Suspicion and estrangement

"What happened here?!"

Many hunters looked at the messy castle hall with shock on their faces.

Everyone saw that Zhou Jing stood on the body of the cropped man and drew out his long knife.

"Jason?!"

Weiss screamed.

The rest of the people also recognized Zhou Jing who was covered in blood, and their hearts were shocked.

Jason only drank and chatted with them in the tavern during the day, so how could he start killing in the lord's castle at night? It also hurts both sides!

During this half day, what happened!

Because they didn't understand the situation, many hunters didn't know what to do. They stopped at the open gate and didn't move. They watched Zhou Jing move step by step with bloodstains.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zhou Jing staggered and walked towards the stairs leading to the second floor.

His vision was blurred, his jaw was shattered, and his nerves were in severe pain.

The chest and abdomen suffered the fatal blow of the inch-headed man. I don't know how many ribs were broken, and the internal organs were also shattered. If it weren't for the talent of [tenacity], he probably wouldn't be able to stand up.

After receiving such a heavy blow, he was already at the end of his strength. He held his breath to maintain the thunder attack and squeezed out the last strength from the cracks in his bones. Change the injury and kill the inch-headed man.

Now that he succeeded, Zhou Jing couldn't hold his breath any longer, his strength drained rapidly, blood was bleeding everywhere in his body, and he couldn't even lift the knife.

This body is fatally injured, and with the collapsed genes, it is no longer possible to survive...

Life is like a candle in the wind, death is close at hand, and the only life left may be counted in seconds.

Knowing that his death was approaching, Zhou Jing dragged his broken and heavy body towards the direction of the lord.

Dozens of guards crowded in front of the stairs. Seeing Zhou Jing approaching staggeringly, they hurriedly retreated up the steps and crowded in the corridor on the second floor.

Every time Zhou Jing took a step forward, many guards hurriedly took two steps back.

After seeing the battle just now, they were all heartbroken, and now they only had fear for Zhou Jing.

Even if he was seriously injured and dying, it seemed that anyone could knock him down, but none of the guards dared to step forward to make up the knife and kept retreating.

At the end of the corridor behind the crowd, Root was pale and his teeth were chattering.

He wanted to turn his head and flee upstairs, but his legs and feet couldn't control him.

The inch-headed man had always had the upper hand, so Lute watched the battle calmly, not at all afraid that Zhou Jing would threaten him.

But he didn't expect that the good situation would take a turn for the worse, and his greatest confidence would be killed on the spot!

All his attention was on Zhou Jing and the inch-headed man. After Ross was easily killed, he didn't pay attention to the corpse lying on the battlefield, he just thought it was a miscellaneous soldier who was dying.

So when Rose came back to life and sneakily attacked the inch-cut man, Root didn't understand the situation at all, and he also didn't notice how Rose's head grew back. The first reaction was that he was dazzled, and the inch-cut man was careless and didn't hit him. Death of Rose gave him the strength to get up.

At this moment, no one around him can stop Zhou Jing anymore!

Root finally panicked.

Although there are more than 30 guards in front of him separating himself from Zhou Jing...

Although Zhou Jing has only one breath left...

However, as Zhou Jing, who was so fierce and like a ghost, approached slowly, Lute still felt the fear of suffocation!

He seemed to be able to see the scene of Zhou Jing passing through the crowd and nailing himself to the wall with one knife!

If you want to say how you feel now...

Regret, quite regret!

The seven different-blooded guards died, and even the inch-cut man hated him!

Who knew this guy could fight so well? !

"Save... save..."

Lute stuttered, and suddenly saw many hunters gathered downstairs, his eyes lit up suddenly, and hope was ignited, as if he had found a straw to save his life.

He yelled loudly towards the many hunters who were bewildered:

"Hunters, stop him quickly! He wants to kill me!"

After the words fell, several hunters subconsciously stepped forward, about to rush up to the second floor to stop Zhou Jing.

But the next moment, Weiss suddenly raised his hand and stopped several people.

Several people turned their heads, their voices were surprised.

"What's the matter, don't you stop Jason?"

"He wants to attack the lord, we can't just watch it?"

Weiss didn't respond immediately, his face twitched as he looked at the dying Zhou Jing.

From his eyes, he could also see that Zhou Jing's injury was near the end of his life.

After all, he was a companion who had taught for three months and had fought side by side. Seeing Zhou Jing's tragic appearance, Weiss was shocked and angry.

The traces of the **** battle for the rest of his life cannot be faked.

He really wanted to know what happened to Zhou Jing in the half day after he bid farewell to him.

Since Jason killed the lord's castle, there must be a reason for the incident, and it must have something to do with the lord!

"I don't know what's going on, don't do it." Weiss said in a deep voice.

Someone hesitated and said, "How can you not do it? After all, it is the lord, so you can't just watch Jason kill him?"

Hearing this, many hunters looked at each other in blank dismay.

They didn't know why Zhou Jing fought with the lord's people, but something must have happened.

Kelut is the lord, and everyone doesn't know what to do.

Logically speaking, they should protect the lord, but from the standpoint of hunters, they should protect their own people.

It's impossible to help Jason kill the city lord without knowing anything.

After all, there has never been a precedent for a beast hunter to kill the city lord before!

Seeing that many hunters hesitated to intervene, Lute was in a hurry and shouted:

"I don't know what's going on. He killed my guard for no reason, and then rushed into the castle to kill me. I don't understand what's going on! If you have any questions, stop him before asking. !”

Hearing this, several hunters thought it was reasonable, so they stopped hesitating and rushed up to the second floor to stop Zhou Jing.

The rest of the hunters had no choice but to follow.

One of the hunters rushed to Zhou Jing's side in a few steps, and immediately pressed Zhou Jing's shoulder.

"Stop it first, what is going on?"

Zhou Jing stopped and turned to look at him.

The hunter's heart skipped a beat, and for some reason, he subconsciously let go of his hand.

Zhou Jing ignored him, looking past the dozens of trembling guards, the increasingly blurred vision, and looked at the nervous Lute behind him.

The body has no strength to move forward.

This is the last knife...

He raised the knife with difficulty, raised his hand and threw it, as if he had exhausted all his strength.

Shhh...

The blade spun and flew through the crowd.

But in the middle of the journey, he lost his strength and fell from mid-air.

There was a jingle.

The **** long knife fell in front of Root.

Plop!

Lute sat slumped on the ground, looking at the long knife on the ground in horror, trembling with fright.

At the same time, Zhou Jing's body also fell down and fell to the ground with a bang.

Many hunters were taken aback.

Weiss squatted down hurriedly, supported Zhou Jing, took a breath, and said in a sad tone, "Dead."

Hearing this, the faces of many hunters changed, and they didn't know what to do.

Feeling sad and angry at the death of a fellow hunter, but also unbearably confused.

"He... is he dead?"

Root heard it from a distance, and a suspended heart suddenly let go.

Feeling ups and downs, the whole person almost collapsed.

The underwear was wet, and I broke out in a cold sweat unknowingly.

Root was terrified.

Fortunately, the inch-headed man and the hunter lost both sides in a fight, and basically both died. If this man still has fighting power, it seems that he will not give up until he is killed today.

Seeing Jason's death, Lute's regret suddenly faded, and turned into joy and fear.

It seems that his fate is not over, and luck still favors him...

Dodged a bullet!

At this moment, Weber suddenly strode closer, pushed away all the guards, and stood in front of Root.

"What happened?"

Weber's tone was serious.

Many hunters followed silently, passed through the guards who dared not move, and surrounded Root.

Root choked for breath and couldn't help swallowing.

Because of Zhou Jing, these hunters he had always trusted suddenly made him feel dangerous and brought him a strong sense of oppression.

He suddenly realized that the trouble was far from over.

If Zhou Jing was caught behind closed doors and dealt with quietly, then this matter would be much easier to handle, but now being witnessed by many hunters, this is not good.

However, after Jason died, no one knew that Maggie accepted his order to intercept him, and it seems that there is still a chance to get rid of the relationship...

Lute quickly suppressed the tension in his heart and stood up with force, pretending to be puzzled:

"I don't know either, Jason came to the door suddenly, brought the heads of several of my different blood guards, and said he wanted me to give an explanation, but I didn't know what happened at all. I think he killed my guards, So I planned to catch him first, but I didn't expect it to develop into this..."

"Maggie?" Weber frowned.

"I don't know too well. It seems that Maggie and Jason had some conflicts. Maybe he did something in secret without telling me. That's why Jason came to me... I will investigate clearly."

Lute managed to maintain his composure, his words were mixed in truth and falsehood, and he just wanted to stabilize the many hunters.

Even if he wanted to pour dirty water on Zhou Jing, he wouldn't dare to do it now.

Everyone was silent, half-believing.

In the past, they were happy to cooperate with the lord, and everyone had a foundation of trust.

But Zhou Jing's determination to kill the lord today shook everyone's minds.

Although I don't know what happened, but Zhou Jing is one of them, there must be a reason for doing this, and the lord must have done something.

And regardless of all reasons, Jason died at the hands of the lord... The lord's men killed a beast hunter, and everyone couldn't pretend it didn't happen.

Jason is the most talented person among them. Everyone thinks that he has a bright future and has the opportunity to become a legendary beast hunter.

But I didn't expect that such a genius would die like this, not on the battlefield of fighting with strange beasts, but in the lord's castle.

What a pity!

Looking at the many silent hunters, Root became more and more nervous, not daring to show any sign of guilty conscience.

After a long time, Weber spoke slowly:

"This matter, we are waiting for your explanation, if it does not satisfy us..."

Needless to say the rest, the meaning is already obvious.

Lute didn't dare to say anything, he could only promise and promise, and he didn't dare to pose as a lord like before.

After Weber finished speaking, he turned and left, returned to Jason, and picked up Jason's body by the waist.

The hunters followed and clustered around.

Seeing this, Root couldn't help but ask:

"Where are you going to take him?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

Weiss left a sentence coldly.

They couldn't just sit and watch the corpse of a fellow hunter hanging out here.

They only have one idea now, which is to bring Jason back to Shuangmu Village.

The hunters took Jason's body and walked away.

Root opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to say any dissuading words.

He guessed that everyone would probably take this corpse to Shuangmu Village.

However, there is another Baron in Shuangmu Village who is a half-informed person. If the hunters join him and synthesize the information, they will learn about the corruption of the medicine, and thus become more suspicious of Jason's experience. This is related, and then doubt yourself.

But Root couldn't stop it.

The power he could use was almost cut off by Zhou Jing alone, and now he couldn't do anything to Baron.

The tribe was too far away to mobilize quickly...and he dared not go up against so many hunters.

If Baron dies again, these hunters will probably understand the situation quickly, and they will definitely settle with him... Lute no longer dares to act rashly.

The goatee must be hidden or silenced directly, and Baron must not be allowed to see this man in the city...

Lute's face was cloudy, and he could only try his best to remedy it~IndoMTL.com~ He has been trying his best to establish a good relationship with most hunters, but now the changes brought about by Zhou Jing have made the hunters feel estranged from him. All previous efforts were wasted, and many hidden dangers were planted.

However, although the subsequent situation was bad, he was still relieved.

‘Anyway, it’s not me who died, at least I’m still alive. ’

Lute clutched his heart, his heart was pounding, full of the joy of being alive after the catastrophe.

On the other side, many townspeople were also attracted by the noise, and regardless of the curfew, they came to the longhouse of the lord one after another, looking at the mess here in amazement.

Many residents were whispering to each other, and there was a lot of commotion.

Among the crowd of onlookers, an unremarkable man saw the body of the short-haired man on the ground, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he immediately slipped out of the crowd and left quietly.

……

After the death of Jason Wood, the apostle of the star realm, Zhou Jing's consciousness returned straight away.

Passing through the streamer tunnel, Zhou Jing quickly returned to the shuttle preparation space.
