Chapter 13: The Defeat of the Hunter

The man with glasses with an unwilling and incomprehensible gaze fell to the ground without a blink, obviously, he had stopped breathing, and he could not know where he had exposed his feet in his life, so he could only embark on the road to Huangquan with this heavy doubt and unwillingness.

Su Cheli looked at the corpse of the man with glasses in front of him in a daze, his eyes were wandering and confused, as if he had thought of some memories of the past-

"This ..... This seems like the second time I've 'killed' someone, right? ”

Su Cheli raised his hand and gently wiped the blood on his face—the wiped blood left a faint red mark on his face, faintly indicating everything that had just happened.

"Hey~, the last 'murder' - was when I met 'Deep Feather', right?"

Su Cheli shook his head vigorously, put aside the messy thoughts in his mind, and muttered as if self-deprecating:

"I really didn't expect that one day, my palms would be stained with blood again, it seems ......"

"It seems that the future life will be 'washed' and not clean~."

In a classroom

Hinsaki Fukaha is looking down and intently flipping through the photo album of her phone-

The album is full of photos of 'Su Cheli', including the normal group photo of Hinasaki Fukayu and Su Cheli, as well as the strong pounce photo of Hinasaki Fukayu's 'sneak attack' Su Cheli, and the candid photos of Hinasaki Fukayu's 'tracking' Su Cheli, etc., all kinds of differences.

"Che Li senior~, where did you go? Do you want to run away from me? ”

The expression on Hinasaki Fukaha's face gradually became serious, as if he was a judge adjudicating justice, and muttered in an unquestionable tone:

"This can't be done~, I'm in control of your 'key' senior~? So, you want to run away from me or something—"

Hinasaki Fukaha's gaze gradually brought a trace of inexplicable and trembling light, and her slender jade hand holding the mobile phone gradually tightened, and the green tendons loomed-

"I will never allow it~!"

............

Squeak and tear~!

Su Cheli dragged the body of the man with glasses, and walked step by step towards Ye Xiaohan, who was sitting in the shadow of the left passage.

Ye Xiaohan witnessed everything that happened just now, but there was no trace of fear on his face, but he sat quietly in place like Mount Tai, his eyes softly resting on Su Cheli, who was gradually approaching-

She wasn't worried that Su Cheli would hurt herself, because-

'Trust'

"Whew~! I'm tired to death, this thorn just now really used up the spirit of my whole body~. ”

Su Cheli finally dragged the body of the glasses man into the left passage, and then he sat down next to Ye Xiaohan with a butt of his ass, muttering complaining words in his mouth.

When Ye Xiaohan heard this, a seductive smile bloomed on her beautiful face, which looked extremely charming against the backdrop of the silver-white fireflies, "Che Li, how did you find out that he was a 'hunter'?" ”

Su Cheli glanced at the corpse of the man with glasses who had not moved, and a trace of emotion flashed in his eyes, "There is a lot of information about the 'hunter', if you explain it carefully, I'm afraid you have to start from the beginning......"

"It's okay, we should have plenty of 'time' right now, so you can talk about the process in detail."

Ye Xiaohan turned her cute head slightly, her eyes stayed on Su Cheli intently, at this moment, under the silver-white fluorescent light, she was full of irresistible moving charm.

"Ahem~ahem~!"

Su Cheli looked at Ye Xiaohan who looked so seductive in front of him, hurriedly coughed twice, and after slightly dispelling the somewhat strange atmosphere, he turned his head to look at the body of the man with glasses without squinting, and began to explain calmly:

"First of all, let's be clear – Weah! In this 'Quetzalcoatl Ceremony', about the true 'identity' of Weah! ”

Su Cheli stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction where he and Ye Xiaohan came, and a slightly complicated emotion surged on his face:

"All along, we've thought of Weah as a 'hunter', thinking that his duty in this ritual is to kill us all. However, if we think back to our previous experiences outside the sacrificial tower, we will find that—

Weah has never proved to admit that he is a 'hunter'!

At that time, when Chen Hong (high school girl) asked the Mayan chief who the 'hunters' who were sent to hunt down our 'sacrifices', the Mayan chief only said meaningfully-

"The 'hunter' who is in charge of hunting you, you have naturally already met the 'face'~!"

As a result, we all misunderstood the 'hunter' who had seen the 'face' in this sentence as Weah, but when I thought about it later, I found that-

Haven't we students already met each other a long time ago?!

Moreover, when we later focused our eyes on Weah, Weah did not admit that he was a 'hunter' directly, but only 'stomped' on a large stone slab to 'scare' us, and then 'showed off' - "Who do you say 'hunter' will be?" ”

However, this sentence is essentially just a 'rhetorical question', not an 'acknowledgement'!

It's just that Weah perfectly exploits our thinking mistakes and relies on this 'rhetorical' sentence to mislead our thoughts in the direction he expects - let's mistake Weah for a 'hunter'!

After that, the real opportunity that gave me the idea that the 'hunter' might not be 'Weah', but the 'student' was what happened to us later-

Weah didn't choose to catch up immediately after being thrown away by us by the lake, but instead did something we didn't know, and I suspect that the huge black snake that appeared behind had something to do with Weah's 'true purpose'!

Moreover, with his powerful and terrifying physical fitness (he just flicked Su Cheli's knife with his fingers, Su Cheli almost couldn't grasp it), he could have killed with all his might as soon as he came up, but he didn't deliberately kill the killer as if he was 'playing', and he didn't even really hurt me!

So, I guess there is only one explanation that can be true - Weah is not a 'hunter'!

Therefore, he can't actually kill us, or even actually hurt us, because if he does that, he is violating the 'rules of ritual' - if he kills the 'sacrifice' instead of being a 'hunter', then the 'Quetzalcoatl Ritual' will fail!

Xiaohan, do you remember the conversation between those Mayans when we were tied to a stretcher and carried over by those Maya? ”

When Ye Xiaohan heard this, he thought about it, then thought about it, and suddenly said:

"They once said, 'We must not take even the slightest disrespectful act towards the sacrifice of the 'Feathered Serpent Ceremony', otherwise it will affect the ceremony~!' ”

Su Cheli nodded in affirmation:

"That's right, those Mayans have revealed in the conversation - they must not touch a single hair of the 'sacrifice', otherwise it will affect the 'Feathered Serpent Ceremony'!

Therefore, when Weah and I briefly confronted me, they didn't use all their strength at all, not even real 'physical contact' - just a flick of the knife with his fingers, and he didn't touch my body at all!

Therefore, the dull footsteps we heard in the passage afterwards were a deliberate 'signal' from Weah to intimidate us forward, like the 'roar' of a sheepdog driving a flock!

Finally, there is the most crucial point -

When I was outside the 'Feather God Sacrifice Tower', I once asked the Mayan chieftain about the 'hunter'.

"The 'hunter' asked why he didn't kill the 'sacrifice' directly outside the 'Feather God Sacrifice Tower', but he must let the 'sacrifice' enter the 'Feather God Sacrifice Tower' and hunt it down."

To this, the Mayan chieftain's answer was-

"If the 'hunter' kills the 'sacrifice' who has no power to resist directly outside the 'Feather God Sacrifice Tower', then the ritual is tantamount to a failure. Because the 'hunter' not only has to kill all the 'sacrifices', but also the 'hunter' himself has to pass through various symbolic mechanisms in the 'feather **** tower'. Therefore, the 'Feathered Serpent Ceremony' is not a ritual that can be completed by the 'hunter' unilaterally slaughtering the 'sacrifice' outside the 'Feather God Sacrifice Tower' - it requires the 'hunter' and the 'sacrifice' to enter the 'Feather **** Tower' together to carry out the ceremony, and the 'sacrifice' must have the power to resist, and it must not be 'bound', 'bound', etc. ”

There is a very key message in this -

"Because the 'hunter' not only has to kill all the 'sacrifices', but at the same time, the 'hunter' himself has to pass through various symbolic mechanisms in the 'Feather **** Tower'."

Since being a 'hunter' requires itself to pass through a symbolic mechanism that represents a deep meaning, why would Veah set out five minutes later than us? You know, by the time Weah entered the 'Feather God Sacrifice Tower', the first symbolic hall of the organ, the 'Black and White Palace', had collapsed and been destroyed~!

Because, until I entered the passage on the left, I didn't see the figure of 'Weah' in the collapsing hall, which shows that he definitely set off after the hall completely collapsed, or was still halfway there!

In this way, it is impossible for him to pass through the first symbolic organ, the 'black and white palace', and complete the 'symbolic meaning' contained in the act itself!

This doesn't fit the nature of a mission as a 'hunter'!

So, judging from this information, Weah can basically be ruled out as a 'hunter'!

As for me, after I found out that the 'hunter' was most likely not Weah, but probably the 'student', I followed this line of thought and found a suspicion about the 'man with glasses'! ”

As he spoke, Su Cheli pointed to the corpse of the man with glasses, and continued with a mocking tone:

"First of all, when we first entered the mission, he was too 'calm' and even almost 'wooden' - at that time, I just woke up and began to turn my head to observe the situation around me, only to find that the man with glasses was lying motionless on a stretcher like a log, without even turning his head to observe the movements around him, which is really a bit unbelievable.

You know, the dyed man on another stretcher not far from him at that time hurriedly observed his surroundings after waking up, and tried to communicate with those Mayans, until finally many attempts were fruitless, and then he lay quietly on the stretcher. Obviously, anyone who comes to an unfamiliar environment will at least choose to observe the situation around them and try to make some attempts to change the situation.

However, the man with glasses is too 'calm', maybe it's because he doesn't want to be 'conspicuous', but he ignores a fact - he is too 'calm', but he is the most 'conspicuous' existence!

And if I follow this line of reasoning, I can come up with a guess that can explain how 'calm' the man with glasses is - the man with glasses 'wakes up' much earlier than the other students of us!

It is even very likely that the man with glasses had an early 'communication' with the Mayan chieftain, and after understanding his duties as a 'hunter', he deliberately lay on a stretcher like us and was tied up, disguised as a 'sacrifice'!

That's why the man with glasses will be so 'calm' at the beginning, and then in the hall of the symbolic organ of the 'black and white palace', his overly 'eager' mentality makes him expose his feet again-

At that time, there were not many 'white grids' on the ground of the 'black and white palace grid', and it was impossible to connect them into a complete piece, as long as we could notice these 'white grids' when we walked, and understand that it was the 'key' to trigger the trap, then the trap of 'the fall of the earth' would not be triggered by people at all, unless......

Unless, the person who stepped on the trap deliberately wanted to 'step on' it!

Apparently, the man with glasses learned key information about the symbolic mechanism within the entire 'Feather God Sacrifice Tower' in the hands of the Mayan chieftain. Therefore, he knew that if he 'stepped on' the trap, he would not be killed immediately, and he had a great success in using the trap of 'collapse' to disperse our 'sacrifices' in chaos and hastiness because of 'collapse', and finally enter different forks in the road!

Or rather, this fork in the road itself is used to 'separate' us 'sacrifices'! Because, after you and I were separated from the hall of the 'Black and White Palace', we have experienced the symbolic mechanism of 'sea water backflow'!

This proves that no matter what passage we take, we will encounter the same symbolic mechanism, so the only meaning of the bifurcation channel is - 'separation'!

It is a 'trap' for the 'hunter', a 'trap' for the 'hunter' to separate the prey!

And Chen Hong (high school girl) died in this 'animal trap'! She probably wouldn't have thought that the man with glasses who entered the right passage with her would be a 'hunter', right?

Moreover, the man with glasses also exposed an obvious mistake just now - he actually said that Chen Hong died under the symbolic organ.

Then the question arises - since Chen Hong, who entered the right passage with the glasses man, died under the symbolic organ, why did the glasses man survive?

Could it be that he succeeded in unlocking the symbolic mechanism? But in this case, how could Chen Hong die under the symbolic organ?

Xiao Han, imagine that you and I entered the hall of the symbolic organ of the 'Sea Influx'. As a result, while the exit gate was closed, I was drowned by the water line that had overflowed overhead, and you finally cracked the mechanism and broke away - this is impossible at all~!

Or, because the mechanism was not cracked in time, everyone in the hall died together.

Or, because the mechanism was cracked in time, everyone in the hall lived together.

How can there be a 'one dead and one alive' situation?

Therefore, Chen Hong was obviously killed by the man with glasses! ”

After speaking, Su Cheli exhaled deeply, while Ye Xiaohan looked at Su Cheli intently, with a hint of interest on his face:

"Na~, Che Li~, I found -"

"You're really interesting~!"

As he spoke, the corners of Ye Xiaohan's mouth gradually turned up to form a touching gesture, and a strange look bloomed in his beautiful eyes.
