Chapter 160

After listening to Lu Huaiqiu's words, Xiao Ying couldn't help but tremble even her peach buttocks pressed against the stool.

—she began to panic.

all the time.

Xiao Ying thinks that she is a very good and young and promising mentor.

At least in these years, she is the mentor who has taught the most number of ace rookies in the league, no one else.

Although her teaching qualifications are not very long, she has always used her unique teaching method to teach many problem students who are definitely troublemakers in the eyes of other tutors very well.

But today.

Xiao Ying, who has always been confident, finally encountered a huge Waterloo in her life.

——Lu Huaiqiu.

Is this kid really a student that normal people can teach?
Xiao Ying felt a little dizzy.

"cough……"

"Fighting in a kickboxing match with me is meaningless to you at this stage."

"My source power is far superior to yours. If we really want to fight, you basically have no chance of winning."

"What you need to do now is to consolidate the [Tongyuan Jue] and complete [Enter Ding] and [Transformation] as soon as possible."

Xiao Ying said.

"Oh." Lu Huaiqiu nodded, "Then after I [Transform], I can have a fight with the teacher, right?"

Depend on!
Why is this little bastard all he can think about is fighting with her!
Xiao Ying was going crazy.

Every brain cell in her body strongly refused to compete with Lu Huaiqiu.

She was even beginning to suspect that this little bastard had no pain-sensing nerves at all, or that something had mutated, making him feel more comfortable the more he hit him.

"Okay, okay..." Xiao Ying said helplessly, "Wait until you have mastered [Tongyuan Jue]..."

Anyway.

For Lu Huaiqiu, [Tong Yuan Jue] is not something that can be practiced in a short while.

So I just agreed casually and sent Lu Huaiqiu away.

Moreover, cultivating the foundation of source power is the most important teaching task of the elite class.

of course.

Xiao Ying was perfunctory, but Lu Huaiqiu took it seriously.

"Okay, it's a deal!"

he laughed.

Under Xiao Ying's severe beatings these days, Lu Huaiqiu's strong root system has been strengthened many times.

until now-

[Strong Root System: lv3 Phoenix]

[Strong root system: lv1 Si Ming]

[Si Ming: A strong and tough body can give you the greatest chance of survival when facing fatal injuries. 】

It's exactly what the narrator said.

During this time, Lu Huaiqiu indeed discovered a new world.

——Probably because the upper branches are beginning to become saturated again.

At the point where he could no longer pursue a breakthrough, his small tree had begun to develop its lower foundation.

So, at this critical moment, how can a perfect tool like Xiao Ying not be used more?

However, Lu Huaiqiu is also a person who knows how to repay kindness.

At this time, he had secretly made up his mind.

When he returns from his studies in the future, he must repay Teacher Xiao Ying well.

So ever.

In the following days, Lu Huaiqiu practiced [Tongyuan Jue] very seriously.

Soon, he adapted to life in the elite class.

Everyone in the class was very surprised by this.

——This new guy who came through the back door was not persuaded to leave.

They didn't even know why they felt that Xiao Ying seemed to treat Lu Huaiqiu pretty well, as if she was very optimistic about Lu Huaiqiu.

This makes Pengwu so angry that his head is smoking:

"hateful!"

"I really want to beat him up! But I can't seem to beat him..."

Qin Lang could only helplessly shake his head and sigh, comfort Pang Wu with a few words, and then go back to answer Lu Huaiqiu's doubts about cultivation...

With the help of Qin Lang and Xiao Ying, Lu Huaiqiu's training progress is also making steady progress day after day.

As for the studies at school, although it was a little difficult, fortunately Jiang Hui helped with tutoring, so the homework did not fall behind too much.

Recently, Lu Huaiqiu has not participated in the activities of the Strange Hunting Club for a long time because he is addicted to cultivation and cannot extricate himself.

Jiang Hui always mentioned this to Lu Huaiqiu from time to time, but in order not to reveal his identity, he could only make excuses saying that he couldn't keep up with his studies.

So Jiang Hui volunteered to stay with Lu Huaiqiu to finish his homework every night after school.

——Of course, there is Fu Jiaqian.

But who would have thought that when everyone was studying together, three people with different plans would have their own ghosts?
until one night.

Lu Huaiqiu, who had just finished his homework and left the classroom to go home, received news of the summer solstice.

"Meet you tonight."

"[location][time]."

A very concise and concise text message.

Lu Huaiqiu didn't feel that strange at all.

After all, he had been working with Xia Zhi for a while, and he was basically used to the behavior and habits of this hot-weapon girl.

The only thing he felt nervous about was the fact that this girl asked him to meet.

——Xia Zhi rarely took the initiative to ask him out.

so.

Once you take the initiative to find him, something terrible must have happened.

At least……

It will definitely not be something as trivial as going out on the street to drink milk tea and lala's home-cooked food.

Lu Huaiqiu immediately replied that he had received it, went home and quickly finished dinner, then turned off the class in the elite class, and then went to the cafe scheduled for Xia Zhi.

"What happened, leader?"

Lu Huaiqiu sat down opposite Xia Zhi and said.

"The situation is a little more complicated."

With that said, Xia Zhi handed a document envelope to Lu Huaiqiu, "You take a look at this first."

Lu Huaiqiu took out the contents in confusion and found a small stack of photos.

——It was the scene of a "car accident" on the elevated road.

However, he was very familiar with this style of photography. At first glance, it was the method of the Alliance Bureau of Investigation, not sparing every detail of the scene.

"Do you still remember this person?" Xia Zhi asked.

"of course."

Lu Huaiqiu glanced at the guy lying in a pool of blood on the elevated road in the photo, and smiled slightly.

How could he not remember the guy he killed with his own hands?

——Chen Peng.

The enchantress who only wants to take her lover around the world.

"After this period of investigation, we found that the origin of this target is not simple."

Xia Zhi said, "This enchantress seems to have a certain connection with [Hela]."

"[Hela]?" Lu Huaiqiu was a little confused, "What is this?"

"Didn't [Qiuyue] Deacon mention it to you?" Xia Zhi said.

Lu Huaiqiu shook his head.

I really don't remember this happening.

He didn't know much about Hela.

He only knows that "Hela" is the goddess of death in Norse mythology, the queen of the underworld of Heim, and is also responsible for aging and disease.

——In myths and legends, it is indeed a frightening name.

"[Hela] - is a very mysterious and unpredictable demon organization." Xia Zhi said.

"How do you say it?" Lu Huaiqiu asked.

Xia Zhi took a deep breath gently.

Then, with her mechanically calm voice, she approached Lu Huaiqiu slowly.

From Xia Zhi's words, Lu Huaiqiu heard many stories that made his heart tremble:

……

Just like hunters are an organized and disciplined group, demons and monsters will spontaneously form small groups and start new activities.

And [Hella] is the name of a well-known demon organization.

——A demonic organization that the International Alliance has been fighting against for decades and still cannot figure out the whole picture.

Whether it is the size of the organization, its leader, backbone, background, historical origin... and a series of information.

Almost nothing is known.

The only thing that is certain is——

Beneath the tip of the currently known iceberg, there is definitely a huge and bottomless unknown.

It can be said.

The [Hela] organization is definitely the most difficult opponent of the International Hunter Alliance in the world today.

Among the many demon riots that have occurred in history, almost half of them are related to the [Hela] organization. ——Including the night march of hundreds of demons in Haicheng many years ago.

It is currently generally accepted that the biggest mastermind behind this incident that year was actually [Hela].

After listening to Xia Zhi's story, Lu Huaiqiu gradually recalled many things from his childhood.

When he was very young, Uncle Deng told him that the city of Haicheng hides some secrets.

But as for what the secret is, no one knows.

But I can't say that with absolute certainty.

Because there is one more person who cannot be excluded.

——Lu Xingran.

Lu Huaiqiu always felt that his father might know what the secret was.

But he didn't have time to say it.

Or...he couldn't say.

But Lu Huaiqiu also understood.

A man who has lived for so many years always has some difficulties that he cannot express to others.

but now.

These fragmentary memories from the past seem to be very coincidentally and cleverly spliced ​​together with the current situation.

——Hundred demons walk at night.

——The demon organization [Hela].

——The secret of Haicheng.

These three seem to have no connection at all.

But they are strangely tied to the same thread.

……

"So?" Lu Huaiqiu asked, "What do you need me to do?"

"I need you to be safe." Xia Zhi said every word.

"?"

Lu Huaiqiu was stunned.

What does this mean.

When a boy is alone outside, he must protect himself?
"You may not know something."

"[Hella] is so difficult to deal with for a reason."

Xia Zhi continued to explain: "Among the members of the Hela organization, there are not only pure demons."

"And - heresy."

Lu Huaiqiu's eyes darkened slightly.

Of course he understood the meaning of the summer solstice.

Transcendents and hunters have never been the same thing.

Hunters are just the group of extraordinary people in this world who fight against demons and monsters.

The other group of extraordinary people either hide in the world and silently contribute to this society.

or—

Just fight against this society.

in short.

Such people can be understood as criminals with extraordinary abilities.

Among such criminals, there are also a large number of people who have chosen to side with the evil demon and become evil itself.

- Hunters are accustomed to calling people like this "heresies".

"Actually, most heretics don't get along well in demon organizations."

"Most demons have intelligence, fighting power and lifespan that are no less than human beings."

"In a very long time in prehistory, demons were even the rulers of this world."

"So many heretics will suffer a lot of discrimination and ridicule after joining the demon organization."

"In most cases, they are reduced to the lowest level of subordinates and tools. Only a small number of heretics can become the leaders of demons."

Having said this, Xia Zhi paused again: "So -"

"Haicheng's Hundred Demons Walk at Night."

"We don't rule out the possibility that heretics are responsible."

"These heretics are very familiar with the city, so they planned this operation."

"That's it." Lu Huaiqiu said.

He gradually fell into deep thought.

Obviously, things were far from as simple as he imagined.

What Tang Yusheng said was correct.

——He still has a long way to go.

"So, [Hela]'s organization's behavior is very resolute and ruthless."

"According to our investigation, Chen Peng is very likely to be one of the former members of [Hela]."

"For them, a guy who can fight and kill Chen Peng alone is definitely not an ordinary person."

"so--"

I don't know if it's an illusion.

Lu Huaiqiu saw a flash in Xia Zhi's eyes that never focused.

"You may have been targeted."

suddenly--

Between heaven and earth, a burst of white light suddenly shone.

next moment.

Boom!

A thunder exploded at the right time on the other side of the sky.

Everyone in the cafe was shocked and almost lost their grip on the cups in their hands.

Lu Huaiqiu was a little lost in thought, and it took him a while to react.

"You mean..." Lu Huaiqiu said, "They want to kill me?"

"Yes."

Xia Zhi nodded: "To be precise, I should be trying to kill you."

"After all, what you are doing now should not be enough to make [Hela] have to kill you."

"Kill if you can. It will create one more disaster. At the same time, you can avenge Chen Peng and strengthen the morale of the organization."

"If we really can't kill him, then forget it. There's no need to waste time on you."

"so--"

Xia Zhi said, "According to the decision of the alliance leaders."

"Starting from tomorrow, I will be responsible for your personal protection."

"Eh?" Lu Huaiqiu was a little surprised, "Does it need such... such a big pomp?"

He originally planned to inform Du Ziteng when he returned and ask the pretentious guy to bring a few more boys with him when he picked him up next time.

But he never expected that the alliance would directly send Xia Zhi to be his bodyguard...

Make sense.

Having an ace rookie from the league's executive bureau as his bodyguard already feels very safe and prestigious.

Of course, if it weren't for Tang Yusheng being very busy, staying with her would be the safest...

The conversation between the two tonight almost ended here.

At this moment, it feels like things are about to change.

After the thunder, the pattering raindrops gradually covered the glass exterior wall of the cafe.

After saying goodbye to Xia Zhi, Lu Huaiqiu also quickly took a small road and hurried back home.

"Looks like I'll have to bring an umbrella next time."

Lu Huaiqiu said to himself.

The raindrops kept hitting his hair, and they tended to get bigger.

Helpless, he had no choice but to pull up his coat and put it over his head.

Amidst the rustling sound of rain, the world seemed to suddenly become noisy.

Suddenly.

His footsteps stopped.

...

[In the gradually pouring rain. 】

[The quiet and cramped alley is gradually drowned by the sound of rain and night. 】

[The old canvas soles grow flowers with mottled light and shadow in the flowing rain. 】

[The moment when the orange warm light flashes. 】

[The boy who carries a knife but no umbrella on a rainy night. 】

【Looking quietly——】

[The killer standing under the streetlight. 】

　grateful:
　　[Priest mode, 100]

　　【Xue Ziqi, 100】

　　[Ink in the rain, 100]

　　's reward!
