Oring Hunter

Page 76



Then, Saturday came.

In the morning, Yechen left Wei Meng, who was still in a deep sleep, and went to the training ground, where he conducted intense self-abilities training alone.

At noon, Ye Chen returned to the dormitory to take a nap after eating, while Wei Meng woke up in a daze afterward.

In the afternoon, Yechen and Wei Meng finished the homework assigned to them by the tutors at their desks.

At first glance, Yechen's arrangement is very compact, but in fact, he is always worried about the upcoming meeting tonight.

However, Yechen didn't mention this matter to Wei Meng. After all, the matter is of great importance, and may even directly affect his entire hunter career in the future, so the less people who know about it, the better.

Afterwards, Yechen came to the cafeteria early and quickly settled his dinner needs. Then he hurried back to the dormitory, sat at the desk anxiously, and waited for the hour hand on the pocket watch to slowly approach the seven o'clock mark.

During the period, he also took out the broken cloak that had not been touched for a long time from his suitcase.

The golden-patterned black canopy, this defensive first-order labyrinth relic, was once deformed and distorted into a kelp-like assembly of countless strips after Yechen resisted the fatal onslaught of the instructor knight Josk in the past.

However, nearly two weeks have passed since then, and it has already returned to its original cloak shape at this moment, but the fabric on its surface is still full of cracks and scars, which records the fights that Yechen experienced in the past tragic.

Yechen held up the body of the black hood with gold patterns, his eyes were full of comfort and friendliness as if looking at an old friend.

In fact, the boy didn't want to hand over the precious thing left to him by the teacher to a stranger he had never met.

However, since the inviting party is the leader of the Olympian Hunters, it can be said that he will be the highest-ranking leader after becoming an Olympian Hunter in the future, so Yechen had to accept the suggestion given by the other party in the letter and send this A labyrinth relic was brought into the meeting between the two.

After all, Yechen, who is proficient in communication skills, also knows the truth of life in his heart. Even though he himself is not interested in the level of his future career status, but not giving face to his superiors will obviously be harmful to Yechen's future hunter career of.

In addition, as the supreme person in charge of the entire Olympian hunter group, the other party would not deceive Yechen into tampering with his mere first-order labyrinth relic.

If Yechen wants to settle down at the top of the hunter, he must at least maintain the most basic trust in his colleagues.

Blind suspicion is not advisable.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and when the pocket watch in his hand finally reached [-]:[-], Yechen finally put the pocket watch in his clothes, tidied the gold-patterned black cover in the cloth bag, and then with nervous Mood walked out of the dormitory and set off for the meeting place with the head of the hunter.

Chapter 0147

The Hunter College is located on the mountainside of the Hunter’s Peak, and there is a winding hundred steps on the side of the training ground, which leads directly to a high platform built on the top of the cliff.

The meeting point agreed between Ye Chen and the head of the group - the watchtower is located in this high platform.

This is a small stone pavilion with a small area and a classical style.

Eight gray-white stone pillars stand around the central stone table and chairs, and the top is a patterned transparent dome made of glass and steel, which is very commensurate with the misty atmosphere in the mountains.

If there is another drizzle, it will be able to show its unique beauty that is free from the world.

Ye Chen was wearing a neat student uniform, carrying a cloth bag with a broken gold-patterned black tent, facing the dark sky, feeling uneasy, walking up the hundred steps, and soon arrived at the top of the cliff. On the platform, I witnessed the unique silhouette of the watchtower standing upright under the moonlight, with a round top and a straight body.

The time at this moment is only 45:15 in the evening, which is still [-] minutes away from the agreed time, but as soon as Yechen arrived at the high platform of Yatou, he caught a glimpse of a slender figure standing on the edge of the fence in the pavilion, silently watching the scene of the college below .

It seemed that he was not the only one who arrived early, but also the other party.

"call……"

Yechen took a deep breath, and quickly checked his attire again. After getting ready, he finally walked towards the observation booth with his head held high, hoping that the diary left by his teacher would exist and would not appear in the next meeting.

And at the same time as Yechen's steps were taken, the Hunter Academy under the sunset also opened up the roads, the playground and the circuits of various buildings, making the originally dim scene of the academy suddenly brightly lit, and it was different from the night sky. The bright and bright moons correspond to each other, forming a moving mountain night scene.

And that slender figure, bathed in the light from both ends of the sky and the earth, slowly turned around to the young man, revealing his true face.

He was wearing a windbreaker, holding a silver cane in both hands, with long silver hair, his face was covered with vicissitudes of life, and a conspicuous scar was slanted on his left eye, which sealed the eyelid heavily , but his only remaining right eye is still full of brilliance, the iris is shining with the color of silver that matches the hair color, with calmness and depth, it looks at Yechen's young azure blue eyes.

After the eyes crossed for the first time, the boy's expression became dazed because of the aura emanating from the old man.

For a long time, when Yechen met anyone, he could judge the threat level of this person to him by the aura exuded by the other person.

No matter how powerful and low-key the opponent is, he can still keenly perceive the slightest hint, thus making himself wary.

Mu is like this, Josk is like this, Nesuo and Kadaixi are like this, so are the tutors and deans of the academy...

However, the old man in front of him was different.

At this moment, even though Ye Chen had been staring at the old man in front of him for tens of seconds, his mind could no longer analyze the situation clearly as usual, and instead fell into a vortex of chaos called confusion.

The aura of the old man... In one second, there are various forms, and in the next second, there is nothing.

Ye Chen has never encountered such a situation, as if he was facing an incomprehensible unknown existence, for a moment, his brain couldn't help but stop thinking, just stood there blankly, and even forgot the polite greeting he had prepared. clean and dry.

"Hello, Yechen."

It wasn't until the other party pronounced his name in an old and gentle voice that the young man woke up from his astonishment, and he immediately felt that the person standing in front of him was nothing but a kind old man who had experienced many hardships.

"Hello, Captain..."

Ye Chen replied in a panic.

"You can call me Kuize directly."

After Kuize finished speaking, he smiled kindly.

As the leader of the Olympian Hunters, he treats Yechen with no air of condescension, and even asks his juniors to call him by his first name, which is very different from the leader in Yechen's imagination.

Looking at his calm face, Yechen suddenly felt that the person standing in front of him was just an old man with a kind face and easy-going personality, so he could only attribute the strange aura he felt before to false illusions, maybe Maybe it's because he hasn't completely recovered from yesterday's labyrinth mania adaptation training...

"Understood, Mr. Quize."

However, the other party was a senior elder after all, so Ye Chen would not really call him by his first name, so he chose the most suitable title after making a compromise.

After a pause, Yechen's thinking finally returned to calm, allowing him to return his attention to the topic again, and asked: "So, may I ask you to talk to me this time... What do you want to talk about specifically? Woolen cloth?"

Kuize stared at Yechen's young face with his old eyes, and responded in an approachable tone: "Hehe, it's just that I have nothing to do, so I came to chat with you."

After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at the training playground below the watchtower, where there were hundreds of teenagers and girls diligently doing self-exercise under the bright lights of the playground.

"These children seem to be two or three years younger than you. They should be students in the alternate class. They are working hard to be selected for the graduation class. Hehe, it's really gratifying and nostalgic..."

After Kuize talked to himself, he asked Yechen again: "Yechen, how is life in Hunter Academy? Does it make you feel bored?"

Hearing this, Yechen shook his head resolutely, and expressed his true opinion: "No, I have learned a lot from this week's course, which is very interesting."

Kuize nodded in satisfaction, and responded in a reassuring tone: "That's good, I'm afraid that under the guidance of that teacher, you will dislike the low level of education in this college, hehehe..."

Then, the old group leader suddenly changed the topic.

"By the way, Yechen, is that labyrinth relic in your bag? Can you show me?"

Ye Chen heard this, and immediately planned to pass the bag to Kuize, but the other party walked towards him with a cane, and then Ye Chen heard a series of strange footsteps.

Click, click, click.

Hearing the soft sound similar to the collision of steel, he looked in astonishment, and saw that the movements of Kuize's legs were obviously a little stiff.

This is... a mechanical leg?

Ye Chen observed Kuizena's moving legs, thinking to himself.

In the next second, Kuize raised his arm, and stretched it out again, and there was a sound of gears running.

Even the hands are made mechanically...

Yechen exclaimed in his heart, and then with a shocked face, he handed over the cloth bag with the black canopy with gold patterns to Kuize's gloved hard palm.

The young man didn't expect that all the limbs of the old man had been cut off, and he ended up crippled like his left eye.

In a trance, Yechen couldn't help but have a deep respect for the one-eyed old hunter in front of him, and he didn't know how many tragic death fights he had experienced in the past before he could climb to the position of today's leader of the hunter. He is truly an admirable senior...

Chapter 0148 Enough is Enough

Kuize took the broken cloak from Ye Chen with his mechanical prosthetic limb, held it in front of his body, touched its scarred fabric texture with his fingertips, and looked at it carefully.

"What is the name of this labyrinth relic?"

Then, the old hunter raised his calm face and asked the young boy.

"It's called the black cloak with gold stripes, Mr. Quize."

Yechen answered truthfully, and his tone clearly revealed his respect for the battle-scarred old hunter in front of him.

"Is the black cloak with gold pattern... I understand."

Kuize stared deeply at the broken cloak in his hand, murmured for a while, then carefully folded the gold-patterned black cloak and put it back into the cloth bag for safekeeping.

Afterwards, the old hunter gave his opinion to the young man.

"This relic is too damaged to be worn as a cloak anymore, so I personally think it's more appropriate to repair it as a lining or a vest. Ye Chen, do you think it's okay?"

When Ye Chen heard this, his face became surprised, he had never considered this kind of repair method, and he couldn't help asking curiously: "Can the labyrinth relics be combined with other fabrics?"

Kuize nodded and gave the answer, expanding Yechen's knowledge on the spot.

"Ordinary fabrics won't work, but special fibers made of labyrinth materials can do it. I will try to sew them together. In addition, I have also read the full-body examination report given to you by the nursing home, so you don't have to worry about repairing it." Your relics will not fit the size of your body, hehehe..."

Seeing that the leader of the hunter group in front of him thought so thoughtfully about him, Ye Chen was moved in his heart for a while. He quickly bowed his head to thank Kuize and asked the specific amount of the repair fee.

Kuize chuckled, shook his head and sighed, "Do you think I, an old man, would still take money from children?"

Yechen was taken aback when he heard the words, and then bowed to Kuize for the second time one after another. At the same time, his admiration and affection for the old regiment leader in his heart also involuntarily raised to another level.

Then, when Kuize spoke again, it directly closed the curtain on the first dialogue between the two.

"Okay, kid, youth is short and precious, so I won't waste your time as an old man, so let's end this conversation."

After hearing this, Ye Chen was stunned again, thinking that he had been in this observation booth for less than 3 minutes, and the conversation with Kuize had not exceeded ten sentences in general. However, the other party only asked him about his first week of campus life. Impressions, and talking about the repair plan of the gold-patterned black canopy, so the talk is over...

Is the content of this conversation too brief?

However, although Yechen sighed in his heart, Kuize's behavior was also in line with his original intention. After all, as long as the diary that Lyle hid in the handkerchief was not discovered by others, Yechen would be satisfied.

"Understood, then I'll go first, Mr. Kuize, goodbye."

Ye Chen finished speaking, and finally bowed to the old senior for the third time.

"Well, Yechen, goodbye."

Kuize leaned on a cane with one hand, and returned a vicissitudes of life to the younger generation with a kind smile.

Afterwards, Yechen didn't say any more, turned around and left, and disappeared in Kuizena's silver-colored eyes.

The boy went down the hundred steps of the watchtower, and soon met a figure facing him. It turned out to be the head of the Hunter College, Dundo Cuomo, who had met him once when he was enrolled.

"Hello, Dean."

After seeing the other party's identity clearly, Ye Chen subconsciously said hello.

"Hello, classmate Yechen."

Dun Duo Cuomo replied calmly, passed Ye Chen, and continued walking towards the watchtower.

Yechen looked back at Dundo Cuomo's back. Yechen was a little surprised at his appearance at first, but soon guessed that the other party should also have an important appointment with Kuize in the lookout booth, so he also Without thinking too much, walking down the steps, I quickly returned to the dormitory building I belonged to, thinking about whether I could finish all the homework assigned by the tutor tonight...

Dundo Cuomo walked quickly to the platform at the top of the cliff, but after seeing the figure standing on the edge of the lookout pavilion with a cane, he deliberately slowed down his pace, as if he was afraid of disturbing the other party. Revealed a very respectful attitude.

Today's Kuize is looking down at Yechen's receding and shrinking figure.

Its only remaining one eye, sometimes bright, sometimes dim, constantly changing.

When the dean stepped into the watchtower with slow steps, the old hunter turned around.

"Hello, Commander, how was your conversation with him?"

Dundo Cuomo clasped his hands drooping, and asked Kuize with a smile.

"not bad."

Quize's tone sounded plain, but Dundo Cuomo, who had known Quize for decades, could vaguely hear his extremely happy mood.

The old hunter turned to ask again: "Can you tell me, how is Yechen's overall performance in the Hunter Academy this week?"

"Ok."

The dean nodded and began to describe the situation.

"Well... Except for the theoretical courses without tests, his performance in the practical assessments of physical fitness, fighting, firearms, military strikes, and spirits is very amazing. The evaluations given by the instructors all think that Yechen's The basic skills are solid to the extreme, presumably thanks to his hunter teacher who disappeared in the maze."

Kuize's one-eyed eyes sank slightly, and his head nodded slightly.

"In addition, regarding the records you asked me to check in the academy... about the name 'Lyle'..."

While Dundo Cuomo mentioned another topic, he took out a thick file bag from the briefcase he carried with him, and then explained it to Kuize slowly.
