Chapter Seventy-Three: Yuehua and the Old Hunter
Torture Blade followed Yilei through the five air pump doors and into a silver-white elevator.
The elevator rose rapidly, and the torture blade leaned against the wall, his hands scratching at the smooth inner wall a few times, but he didn't catch anything.
Yuexia looked at the torture blade at this time unexpectedly, and asked curiously, "Are you afraid of taking the elevator?" ”
"It's not that I'm afraid, this iron box doesn't have any sense of security." Torture Blade said lightly.
Yilei and Helen looked at each other and smiled. I saw the smile on the corner of the opposite mouth.
After a few seconds, the elevator doors slowly opened. Yilei took the lead and stepped out of the elevator.
Torture Blade followed closely behind him, after stepping out of the elevator. Torture Blade suddenly felt a wide expanse in front of him.
It's a huge strip of space. The walls, ceiling and floor are all of a pale blue substance.
This pale blue substance is completely transparent. Stand on the floor and look down to see the ground below.
"At least two hundred meters in height, this is in the handle of that hammer." Torture Blade looked down at the tall buildings that looked like squares, and estimated.
"Commander, the Torture Blade has arrived." Yi Lei's voice came from ahead.
Tortureblade looked up and saw that directly in front of him, Luna Light was standing by the wall with another middle-aged man talking.
However, when the torture blade saw the light of the moon god, there was obviously a trace of doubt in his expression.
Because he found that the arrogant and cold Moon God Light was actually respectful in front of that middle-aged man, and even his waist was not as straight as usual.
"Well, stand down." Moonlight turned his head at this time and said lightly.
Sister Yilei respectfully retreated and quickly disappeared.
Yuexia looked ahead, and the middle-aged man beside her father rubbed his eyes vigorously, then stepped forward cautiously and asked softly, "Great-grandfather?" ”
When the middle-aged man heard this, he slowly turned his head, and a pair of Danfeng's eyes, which should have been extremely sharp, were full of kindness and vicissitudes.
"My little beauty, I haven't seen her so beautiful for more than ten years." The middle-aged man's voice was very crisp and the words were clear. That is, it is not low and not harsh. It makes people feel very comfortable after hearing it.
It's as if no matter what he says, you won't feel disgusted. At the same time, it is deeply engraved in my mind.
"Great-grandfather..." The torture blade pondered this word in his mouth, and the moon next to him had already rushed out briskly, and then his slender arms tightly hugged the middle-aged man's neck, rubbing the middle-aged man's somewhat stubble chin with his face, and spoiled like a little girl.
The stern moon god light did not stop Yuexia's movements, and after his eyes moved away from Yuexia's body, he fell on the motionless torture blade not far away.
"Grandfather, this is the hunter I told you about, Tortureblade!!."
Hearing the words of the moon god, the torture blade's eyes widened instantly, and then the muscles of his whole body instantly tensed, and he flipped his hands and pinched the two-moon dart in his hand.
His legs were arched apart, and a pair of extremely sharp eyes stared at the two of them.
"Torture Blade, what are you doing?" Yuexia let go of the middle-aged man and looked at the torture blade with a puzzled expression.
Torture Blade didn't speak, his eyes staring at the moon god light, he couldn't understand why he was discovered by the moon god light.
The moon god light didn't seem to have the meaning of explanation, and his whole body slowly exuded bursts of terrifying chill,-for-tat with the torture blade.
In an instant, the violent murderous aura filled with blood and the pure cold aura that could freeze everything collided wildly in this space.
The distorted atmosphere of the oppressive Dao made Yuexia's face pale for a while, and even it became difficult to breathe.
Syllable!
At this moment, a crisp finger suddenly sounded.
The atmosphere of terror dissipated.
"Ahem, ahem," there was a wretched cough under the moon.
The middle-aged man patted Yuexia on the back to smooth her up, and said, "Okay, little hunter." We have no ill will towards you. ”
Although there was no expression on Torture Blade's flat face, there was an unknown emotion flashing in his dark eyes.
When I lowered my head, I saw the hands holding the moon-scar darts shaking violently.
This kind of instinctive, such violent shaking, was the first time in the life of the torture blade.
"At that moment, the breath driven by just one finger was like a huge explosion arc, instantly tearing my breath apart. At that moment, I was like a stick of grass next to a huge bomb. Torture Blade couldn't help but estimate the huge gap between himself and that person.
As Tortureblade pondered, the man stepped forward and asked, "You've probably heard of me." ”
"Yuehua, the strongest person in the world." Torture Blade whispered.
The middle-aged man, Yuehua laughed and said, "Do you know what the concept of being number one in the world is?" ”
Torture Blade heard and pondered for a moment, and then said, "The strongest man in Apocalypse City." ”
"He is the strongest man in mankind." Yuexia corrected seriously.
Torture Blade Boy looked at the middle-aged man carefully. Yuehua was wearing a loose sportswear, with her hands in her trouser pockets, and her expression was leisurely. There are no wrinkles on the face of the forty-something.
A thirty-year-old face to be exact, but those incomparably vicissitudes of life make people look forty years old overall.
It looks so natural, so pleasing to the eye. Obviously, the strength is extremely terrifying, but there is nothing prominent, not even any edges and corners.
After half a minute of silence, Tortureblade suddenly said, "You're not as strong as the old hunter. ”
"Old Hunter..." Luna Light listened and fell into deep thought.
Yuehua took a step forward, and her vicissitudes of life flashed with a flash of reminiscence, "You are very similar to him, it is simply carved out of a mold." But he's not as rigid as you are. ”
"Who is he?" Tortureblade stepped forward and asked in a deep voice.
He had the illusion that the "he" in Yuehua's mouth had a lot to do with him.
"Who knows. When I first met him, I was a fifteen-year-old fledgling boy. And he is already the supreme and powerful man who roams the wilderness and kills countless people. When he first saw it, he actually chased six dragonmen with a strange serrated machete. And the six dragonmen were all frightened and fled in embarrassment. ”
Yuehua said with a reminiscing expression, her clean face full of yearning.
The moon god light and the father and daughter under the moon were also surprised after hearing this. They had never heard Yuehua talk about it.
Tortureblade heard that his hand flipped over, and a folded serrated machete appeared in his hand, and he stepped forward again and said, "Is that the old hunter?" ”
Yuehua took a deep look at the sawtooth in the hand of the torture blade and sighed, "I don't know. I lived for 150 years. I saw him only twice before the age of thirty. The first time was when I was fifteen years old, and it was arguably the King of Terror in the entire wilderness. Since then, he's been my target. The second time was when I was twenty-nine. After I killed two drakes, I thought I was invincible. So I met him again in the wilderness. ”
Yuehua took a deep breath, took out his hands in his pockets, and gestured in the air, "A blink of an eye." He didn't activate the spirit test, and only used his body to tear off my head with his bare hands. ”!!! Hearing this, Moon God Light and Moon Xia's eyes immediately widened. Moon Shenguang only clenched his fists, and Yuexia reached out to cover his mouth, a look of horror.
"Legend has it that he killed countless things. Whether it's a beast, a disaster, or a human. As long as he senses interest, he will kill him even if he chases him to the ends of the earth. He is known as the "Apocalypse Hunter" in the circle of the truly powerful. It means the king of the hunt who is closest to the Apocalypse Protoss. ”
Torture Blade clenched his fists and stared at Yuehua with his eyes. For the first time, he knew that the old hunter had such a past.
"Only this time"
Yuehua said suddenly, "he said at the time, "only this time, I didn't kill a person who made me interested." Because in you, I see a possibility. A possibility that can bring out the primitive beauty of human beings. ””
"The primitive beauty of human beings..."
"The true strength of the human body and the true strength of the soul."
Yuehua said, raised her head and said lightly, "Since then, I have begun to discipline myself. I used the most primitive Bai Lingjian in any case, and I was near death several times at first, but I survived. Even later, I wasn't using supplies. Until now, I don't even use it anymore. ”
"If human beings want to become truly stronger, they must be serious, and carefully carve and polish themselves under the real environment and crisis. Instead of putting yourself in a cage to tempt. Yuehua finally said.
When the three of them heard this, they all fell silent.
After a long time, Yuehua asked Xiang Xing Blade, "How is he now?" ”
"Dead, dead five years ago." Torture Blade said with a hint of loneliness in his words.
Yuehua said with a gloom in her eyes: "No one can resist the erosion of time. He's pretty old. ”
"He looks like an old man in his eighties. He even forgot his name. I can only call him Old Hunter. Torture Blade said, putting away the serrated machete and the moonmark dart.
Yuehua walked up to Torture Blade at this time and said flatly, "Humans are very hostile to hunters because they don't have human madness. But in fact, no. Hunters also have human nature. It's just that their humanity is very simple and pure. For example, he. Having slaughtered countless living beings, he has always sought the possibility of human flesh. So..."
Yuehua said, her eyes gradually became extremely sharp, as sharp as the sun, making people unable to open their eyes and dare not look at them.
"What is your humanity?"
Hearing this, the spirit of the torture blade was shocked.
In the dimly lit wooden house, the firelight illuminated the old hunter's wrinkled face.
Torture Blade, who was already a teenager, sat across from him and munched on barbecue.
"I've spent my whole life looking for a possibility. I see this possibility in you. So what are your goals? ”
A hoarse questioning interrupted Tortureblade's eating.
Putting the piece of meat down, Torture Blade pondered seriously for a moment, and finally grinned and said, "Hunt down the Mother of Calamity that the old hunter has been talking about." ”
After hearing this, the old hunter laughed and said, "This goal has not been completed by our hunters for more than a thousand years, can you?" ”
"Why not?" Tortureblade rightly said, "The possibility you see in me is definitely the possibility of defeating the ultimate goal." And I will make this possibility a reality, and then hunt down the Mother Disaster completely. Become the strongest and supreme king of the hunt among the entire hunters. ”
"Hahaha," the old hunter touched the white hair of the torture blade, and said with a satisfied face, "Okay, then let's move towards this goal."
