Chapter 498 Hunter's New Colleague
Zeus's name was like a spell. The moment it was chanted, the whole world seemed to stop for a moment.
The sound of the distant tide faded away in an instant, and the inexplicable force that was randomly squeezing Hunter suddenly let go, and he fell down from the air.
But at this moment, Hunter was no longer panicked. He finally let go of all his worries and hesitations, closed his eyes and just chanted His name with all his heart.
The huge eye in the sky watched Hunter gradually fall with a cold look. As he went away, cracks gradually appeared in the entire sky.
The next moment, countless cracks instantly covered the entire sky. Countless pairs of eyes stared at the world below in the cracks, but after a moment, they collapsed and turned into dust.
Hunter didn't look again. He just felt himself gradually falling and returning to the church. The huge steel furnace body of the stellar furnace was still there, but it was no longer frightening.
Instead, it was warm, like a fireplace on a northern winter day.
It imprisons everything that is twisted and indescribable, blocks malicious gazes, and produces endless energy and power, making Hunter feel inexplicably intimate and familiar.
This is His steel, this is His blessing, and Castel is His kingdom.
The Stellar Furnace seemed to tremble and glanced at him.
It was as if the helpless soul had found a place to stay in an instant, and the confused mood had found a home. Hunter felt a sense of comfort from the inside out.
He seemed to see in an instant thousands of silent but burning souls taking up residence in that steel, and countless wills converging into Castel.
Hunter vaguely realized that Zeus was not Caster's god, but Caster was the embodiment of Zeus's will.
If he calls himself a god, then Castel is his kingdom of God. If he is willing to be a lord, Castel will offer his loyalty.
Hunter suddenly remembered the doctor from Thorn Tongue. His warning at that time turned out to be this. So that's it, so that's it. Then Hughes was his lord. Hunter felt his body was so light at this moment. Countless whispers rang in his ears. They were the lord's teachings, solemnly telling him, "What is he mumbling over there?"
Hunter's pupils gradually focused, and he seemed to be sitting on the bed again, staring blankly ahead.
In front of him was a dark-haired boy with a handsome face and elegant temperament. He was waving his hands in front of his eyes and asked curiously, "Is he awake or not?"
He looks like a noble.
But the nobility was nothing compared to his faith.
Hunter pursed his lips unhappily. The young man in front of him disturbed him from listening to the teachings of Lord Zeus!
"Who are you? Why are you interrupting me?"
"I am the lord here. If you keep listening, you will die."
"Nonsense! How can a mere lord like you understand the greatness of Lord Hughes! This is only in Castel. If it were in the North, I would definitely duel with you!"
"." The expression on the boy's face was extremely interesting. He looked to the side awkwardly. "Well, I'll go first. I've told you everything just now. You two can go through the formalities together when the time comes."
Only then did Hunter notice that there was another person next to him. This seemed to be a ward, and another person was also lying on the bed, looking half-dead.
The boy quickly left the room and Hunter nodded in satisfaction.
It seems that he has some self-awareness and knows how stupid it is to offend the lord.
After a long time, he widened his eyes and jumped up from the bed:
"wrong!"
"That turned out to be the Lord?" Hunter said excitedly, "I knew it. With such an elegant and calm temperament and such a resolute and decisive look, I knew at the first sight that only such a person is worthy of our following!"
"Is there?" The man on the bed next to him scratched his head.
"Do you understand Lord Hughes better than I do?" Hunter looked over with an unfriendly gaze, sizing the man up and down.
"I am Hunter Godfrey Watts, a scholar of the Northern Dawn Society. My father is... Never mind. It doesn't matter. Who are you, sir?"
"I, uh, they all call me Yami." The man said a little embarrassedly, his eyes a little evasive.
After saying this, he was a little nervous. How would the other party react? Would he mock him? Or would he just ignore him? He was born in the slums. "Yami" didn't sound like a serious name. He didn't have any identity worth mentioning. Was he going to say that he was a cashier at a fried fish shop?
This young man named Hunter looked like he was from a noble family, and that kind of confidence was exactly what Yami longed for, so Yami felt somewhat ashamed in front of him.
Yami felt a little nervous and tried to shrink into the quilt.
As expected, the scholar named Hunter frowned, but after a while, the imagined ridicule did not come.
Yami looked up nervously and found that he was looking directly into his eyes.
"If it were in the past, I would not have spoken to you. At most, I would have just said hello. The friendship between common people is useless. Thousands of years of history have proven this."
"But now, Lord Hughes doesn't care about one's birth, so I won't care either. This is not simply obedience. I admire Lord Frey's skills and abilities, but it doesn't take one more bullet than others to kill him."
Yami felt a little dizzy after listening to this. He didn't quite understand what the young man opposite him was saying. He just lowered his head and stared blankly at the ground beneath his feet.
But a hand appeared in his sight.
"I am a scholar and I don't really understand those complicated human relationships. This is my sincerity."
Yami slowly raised his head and looked at Hunter who was reaching out his hand. There was still some scrutiny in his eyes, but after a moment, he suddenly smiled.
"You won't shake my hand?"
Yami was stunned for a moment, then quickly turned over, but because of the excessive movement, he pulled his aching stomach, and stretched out his hand with a grimace.
Across the gap between the two beds, the two men stretched out their hands with difficulty and held them together.
"Nice to meet you."
"Yeah, me too."
After shaking hands for only a moment, the two quickly withdrew their hands.
Their beds were quite far apart, so this position was a bit awkward. "When the Lord came over just now, he seemed to have mentioned that he had given you some instructions? Was it related to me?"
Yami adjusted his posture and rubbed his stomach.
"Yes, the Lord came just now, actually for your matter. He arranged a job for us in the future, and he told me first when he saw that you were not awake yet."
"Assigned us jobs? You mean, we will be colleagues in the future?"
