"It's not fair!" Luciu rudely pushed the door open. The pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info activated the red pupil in a hurry, and the physical fitness of the little dragon man suddenly improved a lot, and even if the guards at the gate had the level of a two-star hunter, it was difficult to stop him without hurting the boy.

The office door creaked open, and the doorknob slammed against the foreign stone inlaid in the wall, and it sank in an instant. As soon as he stepped into the bright room from the dimly lit corridor, the boy squinted his eyes and took a while to get used to it.

Maureen slowly signed the paperwork in hand. The challenge festival had just ended, and the Hunters' Guild was piled up, and the diminutive deacon was almost buried in the pile of papers. He raised his head and looked at the specially selected hunter who was snorting across the square table: "Lu Xiu, I thought you were still resting—you should be very tired after such a long hunt." ”

"How can I rest......" The young man said to Uncle Mo, only to find that his red pupils were still activated. He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, and when he opened them again, Hitomi Ren turned clear, "Shentu Miaoling was taken away by the Knights for no reason, and the other companions were also quarantined and examined, I can't understand...... What a good challenge festival is, why did it become the way it is? ”

"About that...... the deacon put down his pen and smiled "all is well", as if he had been preparing for this conversation for a long time.

"I've read your commission report, and you and your companion have done nothing wrong." Maureen stood up and stepped out from behind the table, "You're just unlucky enough to get involved in an incident that is beyond your power. He patted the boy on the back, "Don't worry, I've checked your commission report with the Bai Ailu clan, and the things that shouldn't be on paper are now gone." Your hunt will be smooth sailing, and no one will connect you to the accidents of this challenge. ”

"I'm not worried about myself......" After listening to the instructor's comfort, the anger and anxiety on the young man's face did not retreat at all, "It's Jia Xiao and them!" We crossed most of the swamp, suffered so many dangers, and even came into contact with an ancient dragon that we were able to rescue all our companions. He said a little more hurriedly, and had to breathe hard, "The commission remuneration that I earned after taking such a risk is actually only because of the gossip of a few people...... Was it rejected by the committee? ”

"The committee is not omnipotent, and their judgment must be based on common sense, and it is of course normal that they will be affected in various ways." Morin patiently explained, his tone as soft as possible, taking care of the teenager's emotions.

The alternate version of the story is obviously more convincing than the trainees being held hostage by a mysterious man, stumbling upon the ruins sleeping in a swamp, being met by the royal family and the hunters' union, and being cared for by an ancient dragon before returning to the base camp safely.

The materials brought back by the teenagers, even with the most crude measurement methods, are comparable to most of the income in a four-star hunter challenge festival. Even with the reflection of the glory of the hunter, questioning the character of a hunter is always the easiest choice for the onlooker to make.

"But we're not the only hunters on the shipwreck!" Lu Xiu defended, "The team leader, Master Guo, is also there, he will always speak for us!" ”

Mo Lin shook his head: "Unfortunately, Ah Peng's current state is very poor, and it is already reluctant to show up like that once." He suddenly closed his mouth, as if he felt that he was a little too serious, and as if he was afraid of revealing too much information, "Anyway, this is not something you need to care about. I suggest you participate in the Challenge Festival, just to give you a taste of the life of a hunter. You don't need that reward, coming back in one piece is enough to give me peace of mind. ”

"It's none of my business......" Lu Xiu clenched his fists, his wrists still bandaged from cuts, and the gauze bulging under this movement, "I can't watch my friends being misunderstood and be indifferent here!" Uncle Mo, they all said that you are the person in charge of this challenge festival, if you can, no matter what you do, at least give them a clean slate! ”

The deacon's face changed a few times, and he sighed helplessly: "That's not how things are done, a large-scale public event like this is not something that can be decided by one person, and the establishment of the Challenge Festival Committee was originally based on this original intention." Not to mention your companions, you should know their details best. Four exiles, one native, and even qualified to participate in the competition. Even if I stand up for them here, I can't guarantee that someone will not find out their resumes. Not only their reputation, but also me and the entire Hunters' Guild will be affected. ”

"Yes...... Is it so serious? In the end, it was still a young man's heart, and in Mo Lin's statement, he found that the seriousness of the matter was far beyond his imagination, "I'm also an aborigine, isn't it still good at the festival?" ”

"How could you be the same?" Morin shook the boy's shoulders affectionately, under the light of the status of the specially selected hunter, even as an aboriginal can be selectively ignored, "Any apprentice, even a full-fledged hunter, let alone protest in front of me, doesn't even have a chance to break into this office." ”

"But......," the young man's voice fell, "if they can't clear their suspicions, their hard-won opportunity will be lost." These people once saved my life in the shipwreck, and now that Feng Dust is still alive and dead in the swamp, I can't ignore them. ”

The chief deacon paced left and right a few times, and seemed to carefully consider Lu Xiu's struggle before saying, "Well, it's not like there is no room for things to turn around. It doesn't matter whether these children stole the hunting fruits of Wang Li's hunting group, but they are still excellent apprentices after all. I remember two of them not being involved in these events, but just doing a good job in defensive battles. I think the committee should reward them for their outstanding performance - that's the limit of what I can do. ”

"Big Bear and Little Ocean...... Can they get the place in the Hunter Trainee Hunter Division? Lu Xiu turned his worries into joy.

"It's not too high." Merlin shrugged his shoulders, his face not showing much, "You know, there are not many good trainee hunters at the challenge festival, and how far they can go depends on the final competition score. All I can do is try not to let this incident affect the committee's judgment. ”

"Then ...... That's great. Since entering the office, he has not had any hope, such a result has exceeded Lu Xiu's expectations, he thanked Uncle Mo excitedly, but remembered something, "Sister Miaoling......"

Hearing the girl's name again, the deacon's face darkened, and he motioned to the soldier to close the door to the office, and then whispered, "Her situation is much more special." ”

"Did she really do something wrong?" The teenager asked nervously.

"I know that girl is also your companion, but unfortunately, she did do something detrimental to the challenge sacrifice." "It's not serious, but it's done, and at such a juncture, it's a fatal mistake." ”

"You've seen with your own eyes the clash between the royal family and the hunters' union beneath the shipwreck." The chief deacon turned his back and said, "I'm sorry, but this is the most normal way for the royal family and the union to get along. There are so many dead hunters, so many valuable ruined relics, we all need an explanation, a step. Someone needs to be held accountable and paid for it. ”

"Do you want Sister Miaoling to bear it alone?" Lu Xiu's eyes widened.

"No, even if she wanted to, she didn't have that qualification." "She's just like you, involved in an event that she couldn't have imagined." But she fell deeper, and there was no suitable figure to pull her out. ”

"Connecting you...... Can't help either? The boy's voice was quieter.

Morin didn't answer, but the little dragon man had found the answer in his regretful eyes, and his expression was depressed again.

"Hey, it always ends." Uncle wiped Lu Xiu's face comfortingly, "Maybe a month, maybe three months, but it won't be a stalemate forever." Until someone pays the price for the challenge sacrifice, the daughter of the Shentu family will not have an accident easily. On the contrary, she will live, and she will live well—as an important 'witness' and the only 'fig leaf', but she will not be able to see you again in the near future. ”

"What can I do?" The trainee deliberated for a while, and finally asked seriously.

"Luciu," replied the chief deacon in the same earnest tone, "you have in your veins that even the Hunter Ancestors would have envied you, and with the right training, no monster will be able to stop you." But in the hunter world, the real enemy is never the powerful beasts that are far away and the polar regions, but the humans who are close at hand. ”

"Some of them will be jealous of you, they will resent you, they will attack you, they will hurt you and your companions, just as they are now. So, in order to make those regrets not happen again, all you can do is keep getting stronger. Becoming a more powerful hunter is the only way to protect your companions and yourself, understand? ”

Lu Xiu nodded.

"Okay," Merlin raised the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, "take care of the injuries on your body, and report to the training ground in a few days, I have hired a new teacher for you, a real adult dragon, I think you should learn something from him that I can't give." ”

…………

"Nope!" Lu Xiu stepped out two or three meters away, and the two salons angrily opened their mouths and bit at the young man's original position, but the sharp teeth collided but only bit the air, so he could only fall to the ground and stiffen, and turned around to chase in the direction of the young man's sprint.

Seeing that the little dragon man was killing in his direction, the fat salon howled a few times and commanded the people around him. The monsters that had not yet participated in the attack swarmed up, and a wave of beasts roared towards Lu Xiu's face.

"Monster!" The boy gritted his teeth, his body suddenly shortened, and he slid forward and shoveled down, giving way to the salons overhead. The heavy sword was dragged behind him with a piercing grinding sound.

"Yes!" The saloons that had pounced on the air splashed waves of sand on the sand behind Lu Xiu, and several ichthyosaurs were drilled out one after another in the waves. The monsters slid on the ground, sprinting swiftly towards their prey. The dragonman took a breath, slapped his heavy sword hand on the ground, and catapulted off the ground, and in this uncomfortable position, he jumped to a height higher than the monster's mouth.

The beast's fangs snapped at Lu Xiu's feet, and the young man adjusted his posture in the air slightly, and his feet stepped dangerously on the back of a saloon. Feeling the foreign object on his body, the monster's pectoral fins fluttered, and his body writhed strangely, causing Lu Xiu's feet to shake, he turned his big sword sideways, and slapped it on the top of the head of the salon below him with a "bang", and the ichthyosaurus only felt that it was dark in front of him, and suddenly lost consciousness, and under the push of his companion behind him, he slid forward a few meters weakly.

"Stop!" With less than ten meters left to reach the target, the boy finally jumped off the makeshift skateboard, opened his legs and quickly approached, his sword striking at his side, and his killing intent was undoubtedly displayed towards the opponent.

Lost the protection of its companions, the fat salon showed a panic for no apparent reason, and it had already buried most of its body in the sand. The monster's exposed head looked left and right, and its nearest companions followed behind Luciu. With nothing to do, its neck finally bowed back, and several unusually large and heavy chunks of sand and dust shot out towards Lu Xiu.

"Poof-" "Poof-" The boy gritted his teeth, his veins burning at a temperature he had never seen before, and the heavy sword was as light as nothing in his hand, and he swung left and right to block all the ranged attacks. This kind of blocking only made Lu Xiu's footprints a little deeper, but it did not slow down him even the slightest.

"Shhhh The fat salon hummed in his mouth, knowing that no matter what, he would not be able to escape the head-on battle with this little guy. It forcibly suppressed its fear of the human in front of it for no reason, and the tail fin and pectoral fin in the sand slammed into Lu Xiufei with a "bang".

"Me!" Lu Xiu's pupils were almost purple, and his shouts had turned into a strange sound that was almost like a dragon's roar. He jumped higher than his usual fiery self, and in a single leap he was in a position parallel to the saloon. The heavy sword slashed from the top of his head, as if dragging Lu Xiu's entire body down, and the blade slashed through the base of the pectoral fin on the side of the salon, cutting through the scales and tender flesh, and severing the flexible interfin cartilage.

"Phew!" Feeling the left fin fly away from its body, the monster made a noise and fell straight down from mid-air. Lu Xiu's back also touched the ground in embarrassment, shaking his internal organs with a sharp pain. He shook his head, scrambled to his feet, and identified the position of Sharon's head.

"God Hunter ......" In addition to fighting, the young man's mind was already difficult to form a complete sentence, and he held the big sword and poked it decisively towards the back of the neck of the fat salon.

"Woo-" The moment the blade was drawn, under the pumping of the powerful heart, Sharon's blood gushed out like a spring, and a fishy salty puff appeared in the boy's mouth and nose.
