Chapter 1 Xuanyu Stone

Next Chapter

A young man with panicked eyes was watching in horror as the behemoth in front of him approached him step by step, as if he was about to swallow himself in the next moment.

"Ah——! Save...... Help, ...... Come on, monsters are going to eat people! Come and save me, I ...... I want to go home~! Whining~~! ”

He was very frightened, his whole body trembled violently, his whole body strength seemed to be drained, he could no longer hold the weapon in his hand, and fell to the ground with a click.

"Haha, laughing to death, look! Look, it's useless to brag that he's the strongest hunter before, but now he's scared like a bear! ”

Before a girl not far away could finish speaking, the adult next to her hurriedly covered her mouth.

"What nonsense, don't shut up yet!"

The man glared fiercely at his daughter, whose mouth was covered by himself.

Although it is a child, it is not taboo, but as a parent, you can't indulge your child regardless of it, causing embarrassment to others, and it will not be good if you develop bad habits after a long time.

Although the little girl's words were more direct, what she said was the truth after all, and when the girl's words first came out, they immediately attracted whispers from the surrounding crowd.

On the referee's bench, the burly man sitting in the middle couldn't sit still at the moment, his face was blue, his forehead was bruised, and the cup in his hand was crushed!

The strong man who sat in the center of the referee's seat was named Hank, and he was upright and brave. Because he is a well-known three-star bounty hunter, coupled with his dedication to the town over the years, he is very respected, loved, and elected by everyone as the head of the town's defense regiment, in charge of all the town's armed forces, which can be described as a high power!

Today, he has another identity - the chief examiner of the hunter application assessment!

And the boy who was so frightened that he threw away his weapon and cried on the 23rd arena was his son Davino, who glared angrily at his unsuccessful son, who was about to turn sixteen and was about to hold a coming-of-age ceremony, but he did not expect to appear like this today!

"The players on the No. 23 arena will be disqualified directly!"

Seeing that the monster was very close, but Davino was still crying for help, he had no choice but to disqualify his son, and then glanced at his assistant Brian.

Brian understood and instructed the ambulance personnel to pull the monster away and bring it back, but Davino, who was scared enough, still cried and collapsed on the ground and couldn't stand up, Hank was furious and strode forward and slapped him hard!

"It's embarrassing here! Get up for me! ”

Davino was stunned for a moment, then as if he had been woken up, and stopped crying.

But seeing his ugly face and hearing the ridicule of everyone present, he understood that this assessment was not only over, but also that he would become everyone's laughing stock from now on.

Ignoring the audience's gaze, he didn't want to stay here any longer, so he shouted at the sky, pushed everyone away and fled the scene quickly.

He didn't have the face to go home and didn't dare to go out, because the outside of the town was full of monsters, and there were only a lot of them compared to his own assessment objects, he walked aimlessly on the street, and unconsciously came to the front of the Xuanyu Palace, he hesitated for a while and then walked in.

Xuanyu Ancient Palace, is the place where Lado Town enshrines the heirloom holy relics - Xuanyu Divine Stone, the Xuanyu Divine Stone placed in the center of the main hall is a rectangular yellow gem only the size of a watermelon from the appearance, there are four linear lines on the side, and the front is engraved with the word Xuanyu.

Some people say that this is the magic weapon refined by the Xuanyu Heavenly God back then, and some people say that this is a meteorite from outside the sky, and even more said that this stone is the body of the Xuanyu Heavenly God before the ascension of the former Xuanyu Heavenly God!

However, it is generally accepted that:

This stone has incredible magical powers, it has spirituality! It can shelter believers from all demons and monsters! It's a god stone!

Therefore, since a long time ago, people have enshrined it as a holy relic, and built the Xuanyu Hall around this stone, which has been passed down for thousands of years, and it did play a great role in the catastrophe a hundred years ago.

It is said that when the great destruction occurred, the world was like the end of the world, many disasters occurred frequently, all kinds of tragic scenes were staged in turn, most of the human beings died in that catastrophe, and all parts of the world were full of sorrow, and the tragedy was unbearable!

And in that dark period of great destruction, the Xuanyu Divine Stone was powerful, emitting immeasurable divine light to envelop the entire town, so that Lado Town basically did not suffer any damage, although high-tech products exploded one after another, mutations, but no one in the town was injured, so everyone burned incense more devoutly, worshiping like a god!

Since that catastrophe, the town of Lado has become the second largest town in the world, and many people have come here after hearing about it! After all, after the great destruction, the environment is harsh and full of monsters, and it is natural to have such an environment!

"Damn monsters! If there were no monsters in this world, then there would be no Hunter Guild and Bounty Hunters or anything like that, and there would be no such hateful assessment to make me ugly in front of everyone! ”

After Davino took three sticks of incense and inserted them, he solemnly knelt on the futon and made a wish: "Great Xuanyu Divine Stone, please destroy all the monsters in this world!" ”

After saying that, he kowtowed reverently.

No one knows what happened more than 100 years ago, even those who know were killed in that catastrophe, since that catastrophe human civilization has completely collapsed, countless monsters, killing weapons will turn the earth into hell, the surviving human beings in this desolate and dilapidated world survived, people struggle to survive......

That catastrophe was called the Great Destruction by later generations!

Since then, countless monsters have sprung up like mushrooms, and in order to fight against them, an organization called the Hunters' Guild has emerged and grown rapidly! They provide chariots, intelligence, and bounties to the warriors of the people to hunt monsters.

With the emergence of the Hunter's Guild, a new class - Bounty Hunter has also emerged, and the warriors who take tasks in the Hunter's Guild and fight against the monsters and evil forces that have been bounty are called Bounty Hunters!

"Your sincerity has touched me, and since you are so religious, then ...... I'm just as you want it to be! ”

A voice came.

Davino hurriedly raised his head and looked at the holy relic in front of him in amazement.

"The Divine Stone has appeared?!"

"Yes! Yes! This seat has already manifested, but this divine stone now needs more faith power to send out supernatural powers, you must kowtow to me a hundred more heads! The voice replied.

"Really?"

Davino asked at the Divine Stone, now for him, as long as he can destroy the monster, let him do anything!

"Of course! I'm ...... No, this seat is a Xuanyu Divine Stone! The voice explained.

Seeing that Davino really began to kowtow, the voice sneered and then said: "No, no, this is not pious enough, it does not have the power of willingness, you have to shout grandpa every time you kowtow, and then say your wish......"

"What?"

At this time, no matter how stupid Davino was, he understood that someone was playing with him, and the Xuanyu Divine Stone did not appear at all! He was annoyed and angry, and then thought of everything that happened today, and finally couldn't help it and exploded!

"Who's pretending to be a ghost, come out for me!"

As he spoke, he got up and searched like crazy.

At this moment, the voice sounded again: "Haha, just kidding, don't take it seriously!" ”

Then a figure emerged from behind the table, a young man dressed as a repairman, with a public face, which would be difficult to find if it were placed in a crowd.

Davino glared at him, "Jack! How dare you fool me? It's too much! ”

The young man dressed as a repairman hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's just a joke, it's a ......big deal" Before he finished speaking, suddenly the ground began to shake, and the old hall also began to shake, and dust and bricks fell from time to time.

"What's going on? Was there an earthquake? ”

Seeing this scene, Davino couldn't care about being angry at this time, and became a little scared.

"Let's go, get out quickly, let's go out first!" Jack picked up his hand and started running!

After the two came out, they found that countless cannonballs were flying all over the sky, falling from time to time, destroying pieces of buildings, leaving huge deep holes, and the surrounding buildings were also shaken violently by the shock wave formed by the explosion of the cannonballs!

"World war? What's going on? The two looked at each other.

"Bell! Clang! ……”

Before the two of them could figure out what was going on, they heard the bell ringing when the town had an emergency assembly in the event of a major accident.

"Let's go! Go to the council hall! ”

At this time, the meeting hall was crowded with people, and at a glance, it was really crowded, and everyone was chattering and talking, and they couldn't hear what was being said at all, but they didn't have to think about it to know that such a heated discussion was not because of today's hunter's application for assessment, but because of the abnormal change that happened just now!

It didn't take long for the old mayor Ke Bike to walk to the rostrum, accompanied by Hank, the head of the security regiment, only to see Hank glaring, tearing open his throat and roaring majestically.

Its sound is like thunder, deafening! With the rolling Wia resounding in the hall, the surroundings suddenly fell silent, silent!

Seeing that everyone was quiet, the old mayor did not procrastinate, turned on the microphone, and went straight to the point: "This time I urgently summoned everyone, I believe you all understand why, that's right, there is an army of monsters attacking our town!" This incident is very serious, although the monsters on weekdays will attack humans, but they are like animals without intelligence, but it is the first time that such a large-scale and organized and purposeful alliance to attack the human gathering area has appeared today! ”

The old mayor took a breath after making a generous statement, and then said, "Ahem...... But don't care about being surprised and scared, now that the monsters are attacking our home, can you bear it? ”

"Can't!" The audience is united.

"Very good, next, the head of the defense regiment will organize a counterattack!" Seeing everyone's reaction, the old mayor nodded in satisfaction and handed over everything to Hank.

Hank took the microphone and didn't assign too many tasks, because the current conditions did not allow it! Time doesn't allow either! This phenomenon is also the first time to appear, and there is no experience to learn from, and you can only take one step at a time without knowing anything, think while fighting, play on the spot, and make a decision now!

"Everyone, listen up, members of the Guards, take their positions, and the rest of the people take their weapons and follow behind the Guards, and start fighting back!"
