Oring Hunter

Ye Chen glanced at her speechlessly, and didn't bother to continue arguing with this crazy girl.

"Let's eat out tonight, do you have any ideas?"

While starting the engine to start the sports car, Ouke asked Yechen again with a smile on his face.

"As you like, I can do it."

Staring at the pedestrians coming and going on the street, Yechen replied in a somewhat casual tone, and his mental state seemed to be quite relaxed.

"Okay, then let's go to the newly opened food street in the new city and try whatever is new~"

After Ouke finished speaking happily, he immediately accelerated the speed of the sports car and took Yechen to the brightly lit bustling city in the distance...

During the next three days of vacation, Yechen's schedule was basically tied to Oke.

Food and lodging, entertainment, exercise, relaxation...

In almost every holiday behavior, Oke has to stick tightly to Yechen's side. To use a comment Wei Meng made in the past, he is like "a cat that cannot be separated from its master".

However, Ye Chen has no objection to this. After all, although Ou Ke has a lot of temper in his daily life, as an active hunter, he also knows what a combination of work and rest is like Ye Chen. Play when you should play and practice when you should practice. .

Moreover, while being a partner, Ouke is also a good opponent of Yechen. Every time the simulated sparring in the training hall, he will fight inextricably with him. tear it down.

Between the constant sharpness and continuous sweating, both of them can often get enough exercise in fierce battles, which is undoubtedly the best self-training for hunters.

Of course, if the other members of the Xiaoxiao team are free, Yechen and Oke will also take the initiative to bring them over for training or to learn from each other.

During the mission, everyone is a reliable comrade-in-arms who entrusts life and death to each other, while during daily vacations, everyone is their respective opponents or coaches.

Muscle strength, cardiorespiratory endurance, hand-to-hand combat, hand-to-hand combat, long-range shooting, the study and application of natal or general arcana...

The joint exercise programs are comprehensive and reasonable, team members cooperate and help each other, and use my strengths to make up for your weaknesses. This kind of benign atmosphere is vigorously advocated by Yechen as the team leader.

And it is precisely because of this that the comprehensive strength of the Xiaoxiao team will continue to grow and improve, and it will be able to continuously complete a series of difficult tasks in recent years, and finally become the young team with the most potential in the current era of the hunting group. It is worthy of the title of "Dawn" given to everyone by the hunting group.

……

But human interaction always requires privacy.

So, on the fourth day, when it was Ouke's turn to go out to perform domestic missions alone, Yechen, who had a rare chance to enjoy leisure alone, changed into a low-key casual outfit without hesitation in the afternoon, and headed straight for the old town of Hunter Town , and finally came to the ancient cathedral with a long history.

Passing through the open door of the Holy Light Church, the scene of the prayer hall flickering with candles came into Yechen's eyes.

Accompanying him were a dozen devout people who were meditating with their eyes closed between different benches, as well as confused citizens who followed the priest to the confessional to try to untie their knots, and even the man who had known Ye Chen for many years , gentle and kind-hearted nun Bintuya.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Yechen, are you here to meditate again today?"

Seeing Ye Chen's figure walking into the prayer hall, Bintoya greeted him with a smile on her face, and guessed his inner thoughts without any difficulty.

"Good afternoon, Sister Bentoya."

Ye Chen smiled and responded with the same friendly attitude.

"Didn't Miss Ouke accompany you today?"

Seeing that Yechen was alone this time, Bintoya immediately asked questions curiously.

In Binertoya's impression, when Yechen came to the church in the past, he was often accompanied by Oke.

Only at such a time and place, even if Yechen sat on the bench for several hours, Oke would not be self-willed because of boredom as usual, but just stayed quietly and obediently beside Yechen, often making people around Those onlookers whose marriages are not going well feel envious...

"She has a mission today, so I came here alone."

Yechen explained in a calm tone.

"So that's the case, then I hope you can enjoy today's tranquility."

Bin Ertoya smiled sideways, and without further entanglement, gave Yechen a simple blessing, and watched him walk to the center of the hall.

When he came to a row of benches, he chose a low-key corner to sit down. Yechen then closed his eyes and integrated into this classical atmosphere wholeheartedly.

Perhaps it was because he grew up in a church that he felt very intimate with this atmosphere, so once immersed in it, Yechen would unconsciously feel peace of mind and tranquility.

Therefore, in the past few years of integrating into the Holy Light society, bloodsmith hunters will take time to visit this Holy Light Church every once in a while.

You don’t need any extra things or interesting activities, you just need to sit quietly with your eyes closed for a few hours in its elegant prayer hall that exudes fragrance. For Yechen, everything is equivalent to the top relaxation and enjoyment, which can be described His own special hobby.

Chapter 0563 Invitation to learn from each other

Of course, while sitting in the church and savoring the tranquility, Yechen will never forget to tell himself in his heart, never forget the vanished hometown of ice and snow, and never forget those family members and old friends who died because of him .

"As long as the abyss is not cleared, as long as I have a breath, the blood craftsman will never put down the butcher knife."

To this day, this thought has been deeply imprinted in the depths of Yechen's soul like a steel stamp.

……

After sinking in the darkness for a long time, the bloodsmith hunter finally opened his eyes again.

Looking down at the black ring watch, realizing that he had been in the church for nearly three hours, Yechen thought it was time to leave, and then he planned to get up and leave his seat.

However, he turned his sight inadvertently, and in the next second, he saw a very familiar figure on the adjacent bench.

That figure has long silver-white hair, a face full of vicissitudes of time, and an old battle scar piercing through his left eye. It is the leader of the Olympian Hunting Group, head Kuize.

Mr. Quize?

Faced with the abrupt situation when he woke up and suddenly found that his immediate boss was by his side, Yechen's face immediately showed a burst of surprise, and he also had a strong sense of déjà vu in his heart, as if this situation was happening It seems to have happened once a few years ago.

At this moment, Kuize was also closing his eyes to rest his mind, but after Yechen noticed his existence, he seemed to also feel Yechen's sight, and then opened his old single eye, and then showed Yechen A kind smile.

"Mr. Kuize... hello."

Yechen greeted subconsciously, and then expressed doubts: "When did you come here?"

"It was about an hour ago. At that time, seeing that you were sleeping soundly, I didn't make any noise to disturb you." Kuize replied calmly.

Ye Chen rubbed his sleepy eyes, laughed thoughtfully, and asked Kuize again: "Is that so... You came here to relax, right?"

"Yes, I've been busy these past few years. It's rare to have a chance to relax during this time. Naturally, I won't miss it." Kuize explained in an easy-going tone.

"Oh, I see..." Ye Chen stretched out his hands to straighten his messy hair, and for a moment didn't know how to continue this conversation.

Kuize, on the other hand, talked about other topics naturally:

"Recently, the task performance of the Dawn Team has been impeccable as usual. Even in the face of the top monsters in the labyrinth, you can still easily deal with it. Regarding this point, Ye Chen, as the leader of the team, you must be the leader of the team. It is indispensable..."

When Ye Chen heard the words, he was taken aback for a moment, and then responded in a flat tone:

"Hehe, you're being serious. It's mainly because all of us in the team helped each other and worked together as one to achieve what we are today, so the credit is naturally far from my own."

Faced with Yechen's humble attitude, Kuize nodded with satisfaction, and then gave Yechen a word of encouragement as a leader:

"Well, you young people all have unlimited potential, and I hope you can maintain this momentum and move forward. After all, not only the Olympian Hunting Group, but even the entire Holy Light Pure Land, you are a group of rare people. Got a 'lucky star'."

Seeing that Kuize had such high hopes for his group, Yechen immediately lowered his head and responded with a very respectful attitude:

"Yes, we will continue to improve the overall quality of ourselves and the team, and strive to make more contributions to the hunting group and the pure land, and make more achievements."

The corner of Kuize's mouth raised a kindly arc, and he looked down at the hour hand on the black ring watch, which symbolized the afternoon, and then asked Ye Chen suddenly:

"By the way, kid, are you free later?"

Hearing this question, the bloodsmith hunter admitted truthfully to the leader without hesitation:

"Well, I'm free all day, what's the matter, Mr. Kuize, do you need my help?"

Kuize explained calmly:

"No, it's a long way to help, but because I'm very interested in your current strength, and I'm rarely free today, so I want to take this opportunity to practice with you and see if I can give you some help in combat. Some guidance or suggestions, of course, this matter still depends on whether you are willing or not."

When Ye Chen heard this, his expression froze, and then his eyes were filled with deep astonishment.

Um……?

As the head of the group, Mr. Kuize...

He even said he wanted to compete with me! ?

The bloodsmith hunter obviously never expected that the head of the group in a high position would send such an invitation to him, so both his face and his heart were shocked and fell into a stunned silence for a while.

"..."

However, even though the unbelievable Yechen immediately glanced at the other party's eyebrows, he couldn't find any hint of a joke in it.

At this moment, the silver-white single eye that reflected Yechen's face was just as calm as still water.

The old man was not joking.

He does mean it.

After realizing this, the young man immediately took a breath in disbelief, and the azure blue eyes were rendered with a color of surprise.

"How about it? What do you think? Are you interested in spending time with me, an old man? Of course, if you don't want to, I will naturally not force you."

Kuize, with a friendly face, launched such a questioning in a teasing tone.

"When... of course I will!"

After being flattered for a short time, Yechen immediately responded excitedly.

Before that, the young man knew well that although the old man now held the civilian position of head of the hunting group, he was once a member of the mysterious "Extreme Hunting" in the past, which is enough to be called It is the top existence in the long history of hunters.

Even though the current Kuize looks old, disabled, blind in one eye, as if time and scars have taken off the coat of a strong man, but you don't need to think about it, the skills and background accumulated by the other party over the years are bound to It will still be unfathomable, hard to find in a thousand years.

Because of this, to be able to fight against such a strong player of this historical level, for the young bloodsmith hunter, it can be said to be a dream from heaven, and obviously there is no reason to refuse it!

Could it be that the young man would be able to obtain the precious guidance of the old man from this rare contest, so that his strength would further advance by leaps and bounds?

"Very well, since you have no objection to this, then without further ado, let's set off."

After receiving a positive response from Yechen, Kuize then leaned on a black cane with a smile on his face, and slowly supported his tall body from between the benches.

Chapter 0564 The top of the mountain

Yechen followed Kuize to get up and leave the seat, and asked Kuize: "Mr. Kuize, are we going to the training hall of Hunter Summit now?"

Kuize replied kindly: "No, kid, that's too eye-catching. It's better not to be ostentatious in this contest. There is a good place on the upper level of Hunter's Peak. You can come with me."

Perhaps because he had just woken up, Yechen realized that he had just asked a very stupid question, so he touched his head with a slightly embarrassed expression and apologized: "Oh, I'm sorry, I was negligent in my speech."

The old man didn't pay much attention to this, he just smiled at the young man, then turned around and walked towards the church gate.

Seeing Yechen and Kuize leaving side by side, Binertoya bowed her head respectfully to say goodbye to them.

Then, watching the two figures of the old and the young disappear quickly outside the gate, the nun's pair of simple eyes silently glowed with a bit of hidden light...

Leaving the Holy Light Church and arriving at the Hunter's Peak, accompanied by the head of the group, the bloodsmith hunters were able to skip the inspection of the guards and enter the upper level of the mountain without any registration, the core area of ​​the entire hunting group.

The two walked up the steps around the mountain, passing through the research area, decision-making area, and reserve area on the upper level of the Hunter's Peak, and finally came to the cliff platform on the top of the Hunter's Peak.

An old clock tower full of traces of wind and frost, filled with the atmosphere of history, stands quietly in the center of the cliff platform, quietly meeting Yechen's eyes.

After living and working on Hunter Peak for so many years, this is the first time he has visited the highest point of this spiral mountain, and it is also the first time he knows that there is such an ancient building on the top of the mountain, so a young face suddenly appeared An emotional palette of surprise and curiosity.

Looking back and forth at the wind and rust on the surface of the clock tower, Yechen couldn't help but asked Kuize next to him:

"Mr. Kuize, when was this clock tower... built?"

"That was 3000 years ago... I can't remember the exact time. You just need to know that it is my private residence."

Kuize explained to Yechen in a flat tone, while stretching out his mechanical arm and pushing open the unlocked door.

Afterwards, the indoor hall of the old bell tower was brought into the eyes of the young by the old man.

Dozens of rows of wooden bookshelves exuding an ancient style are arranged in an orderly manner on both sides of the spacious hall. The golden sunlight shines through the flower windows and casts dazzling bright spots between the blue carpets. There is an exquisite and gorgeous large tea table, and behind it is an old big pendulum, surrounded by scattered desks and chairs.

Facing this elegant indoor scene, Yechen felt mixed feelings in his heart.

He originally thought that the residence of Kuize, who was in a high position, would be decorated with high-end atmosphere according to the trend of the times, but now the bell tower hall that appeared in front of Yechen did not show much modern atmosphere, as if A large antique that has been handed down for thousands of years silently tells the past of the past...

"This is my living room and study."

Kuize introduced in a kind tone, while leading Yechen through the clean blue velvet carpet, he pointed to the stairs in the corner of the hall.

"The rest of the living rooms are upstairs, but they are not within our route today."

Kuize turned to Yechen and introduced the tea table in the middle of the hall.

"As for the tea table you saw, it is the place where I usually call "Extreme Hunting" for meetings. If you can successfully join their ranks in the future, then there will be an extra seat here for you. .”
