Chapter 231
As the next president of the Hunter Association, Ning Baiquan has just as many connections with Su Xingyuan as anyone else.
When the locust plague broke out, the black-haired hunter who had just traveled around the world spreading insect repellent powder came to his office at some point, sat on the windowsill, and greeted him with a smile.
However, Ning Baiquan's heart skipped a beat when he saw Su Xingyuan. Forgive a working man. The appearance of this person often means a new life. It would be strange if he didn't feel nervous when he saw Su Xingyuan.
"What's the matter?" Ning Baiquan asked.
"I just suddenly remembered." The black-haired hunter said calmly:
"Add a friend?"
Ning Baiquan didn't quite understand what Su Xingyuan said about "there are still many friend positions", but he did understand one thing.
——He seemed to have become friends with Su Xingyuan.
.
When Ning Baiquan was a child, he believed in the existence of the savior, but later he thought it was just nonsense. It was not until Su Xingyuan appeared that he realized it was not just a soothing legend. He has been in society for so many years, and he always treats everyone he meets as a friend regardless of whether he knows them well or not. However, Su Xingyuan told him that the number of close friends is limited, making it seem like a primary school student making friends.
Ning Baiquan didn't dare to ask if there was any rule like "I hate him and you are not allowed to play with him", after all, those people Su Xingyuan hated had probably been hacked to death by him long ago.
In short, no matter what happened to Su Xingyuan, it was not strange, so Ning Baiquan didn't care much about this episode at first. It was not until today when he saw Su Xingyuan disappear in the center of the shrine that he suddenly realized:
Maybe I lost a friend.
*
This may be the friendliest post-disaster reconstruction.
For example, all of Xu Banmeng's collapsed buildings have been restored to normal condition. She had people check them from top to bottom, and the conclusion was that there was no problem. Not only her property, but other public facilities as well, seemed to have returned to the state before the disaster overnight.
Xu Banmeng suspected that Su Xingyuan did it.
After all, Su Xingyuan always likes to do something on a whim. Maybe he suddenly realized the ability to restore the building to its original state at the last moment?
It couldn't be that the remaining god in the temple did it. They wouldn't be so kind. It's possible that Su Xingyuan forced him to do it.
When Xu Banmeng came to his senses, he realized that he had been reading the document for more than half an hour. The secretary was accompanying her and did not remind her. When she came to her senses, she handed her a cup of coffee and said calmly, "It's almost twelve o'clock. If you don't leave work, I will have to leave work too, boss."
Xu Banmeng: “…”
Xu Banmeng: "Your speech is getting better and better now, and it always makes me feel like the smiling face of the Suxingyuan hunter."
This time it was the secretary's turn to be silent.
After exchanging a few words like this, Xu Banmeng finished today's work in a refreshed state. She stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked out. The lights were bright in the night. After a month, the night finally returned to its former liveliness.
There are no more portals and no more monsters. Some guilds are transforming, while others are gradually disbanding. The concentration of magic in the air is decreasing day by day. Perhaps in another two years, there will be no new hunters, and the hunter era will be over.
Of course, there is another possibility - the proportion of hunters among newborns will become higher and higher, and eventually we will enter an era of universal hunters.
But... no matter which direction the world takes in the future, one thing will never change.
She opened the social software and found that the deeds of the S-level hunter Su Xingyuan included in the history textbooks were at the top of the hot searches and had been on the list for three consecutive days. Even at this hellish time, there were still people discussing it in the topic.
[(Candle)(Candle) Forever S-rank Hunter (Candle)(Candle)]
[I believe that the Star Hunter is not dead yet. It’s been over a month. Star Hunter, please show your head.]
「Me too, I really want that Suku☆○’s autograph.」
[Also, the damage caused by the shrine falling down has been repaired. I heard someone analyze that it should be a state reversal.]
[The thirty-second day since the disappearance of the Xingyuan Hunter, I miss him]
[It has been included in the textbooks. When will there be a special holiday to commemorate it? 】
[Is it to commemorate his death? qaq We don’t even know his birthday]
Xu Banmeng who came here: "..."
Renxu Xingyuan hasn't been confirmed dead yet!
She closed the page wordlessly.
The phone rang again. It was Xue Yinglong asking her, Ning Baiquan and Fang Mujian to go out for a drink.
Xue Yinglong is now one of the only two S-level hunters in Country C, and his relationship with Xu Banmeng has also improved a lot. The guild under his command was one of the best, but he knew he was stupid, and seeing that there would be no more threats from the dungeon in the future, he simply disbanded the guild without thinking about transformation. Now he lives a comfortable life, spending his days drinking and eating meat with his savings, and from time to time he wants to drag her and Ning Baiquan, two super busy men, along.
Just as Xu Banmeng was about to reject him, he saw Xue Yinglong continue:
[Anyway, for S-level hunters and A-level hunters, it only takes a few minutes to cross the city. We also have a teleportation device, so why not go directly to J City to take a look! 】
J City.
Xu Banmeng stopped pressing the send button.
J City was originally just a small city in the south, located in a remote area with few hunters. No one could have imagined that this would be the beginning of everything.
The current mayor of J City is quite smart. I heard that she has diligently collected a series of activities of Su Xingyuan in J City and turned those places into memorial sites. Now it has been about a month since the disaster ended, and more and more people go to J City during holidays, just to see in person what the hunter did when he was a rookie.
I heard that even the Paishan Guild was made into a tourist attraction, and there are people walking around outside the Hunter Prison every day, trying to sneak in and see with their own eyes the relatives of the Paishan Guild President who had fought against Su Xingyuan.
Not only the mayor of J City, other cities are also carrying out such actions. However, compared with J City where the savior came from, there is always something missing.
Xu Bankeng thought about it and replied: [Okay. 】
It just so happened that she was a little curious too.
*
When they arrived at the place, Xu Banmeng found that there were not only four of them, but also other acquaintances.
"Victor from the Observatory, Kirill, An Qian from the Savior Protection Association... why did so many people come on the same day?" Xue Yinglong scratched his head in confusion, but Xu Banmeng suddenly realized something.
The observatory is coming, yes, why are they coming? Why did you choose to come today?
There seemed to be some itchy feeling caused by excitement in his heart. Xu Banmeng let out a light breath and calmed himself down.
She and Ning Baiquan looked at each other, and it was obvious that the other party had similar guesses in his mind.
Both parties were high-level hunters and noticed each other, but had no intention of traveling together. Although Xu Banmeng is good at dealing with people, he doesn't really want to deal with people he is not familiar with. Ning Baiquan is probably the same. Xue Yinglong wanted to go with them, but when he found that his two friends didn't show any interest, he just said goodbye to them with a smile.
They followed the crowd and the tour guide and slowly came to the venue of the Paishan Guild.
"This is the first guild that was hostile to the Suxingyuan Hunters." The tour guide said, "The then president of the Paishan Guild bullied men and women and was a local tyrant in J City. Unfortunately, he offended the Suxingyuan Hunters. He was killed in his office that night, and the scene was in chaos. In order to investigate the truth, two A-level hunters came to the Paishan Guild together and luckily met the Suxingyuan Hunter..."
Xue Yinglong turned his head enthusiastically: "Isn't it you, brother Fang Mujian, who was one of the two hunters at that time?"
Fang Mujian: “…”
The past is too painful to recall.
If he had known that Su Xingyuan was Su Xingyuan, he would not have gotten involved in this mess from the beginning. The same goes for these people. Why do they keep whipping his corpse after the fact? Don’t you know that the supporting characters in the story will also feel embarrassed?
Xue Yinglong suddenly remembered something and said happily, "Hey, it seems you were also involved in the interception at the high-speed railway station. You and the Suxingyuan Hunters seem to have a connection!"
Fang Mujian: “…………”
Otherwise, Xue Yinglong was really stubborn and he would have suspected that this person did it on purpose.
It took almost an afternoon to visit all the places related to Suxingyuan. Although most of the places showed traces of Fang Mujian's sweat, when he revisited the old places, in addition to the embarrassment of being whipped by others, he also felt a bit of wonder that "so much time has passed".
"Now that we're done, let's find a place to eat! Maybe the Xingyuan Hunters have been to these roadside shops before?"
Xue Yinglong suggested.
Xu Banmeng had no objection. She was not the kind of person who was too pampered. She might say that normally, but in fact, she didn't mind small roadside restaurants or even roadside stalls. After a few people discussed it, they found a dinner restaurant and sat down.
This shop only sells ordinary buns and soy milk, which is not very competitive compared to the delicious food on this street. A few people sat here because there were few people around. Although they had done some simple disguises, there was a risk of being recognized if there were too many people around them during the meal - after all, in the hunter era, high-level hunters were no different from celebrities, and were even more popular than celebrities.
There was another person in the store, with short black hair, a baseball cap pulled down low, and wearing an ordinary black sweatshirt and trousers. He was eating quietly while scrolling on his phone.
Seems to be an ordinary person.
Several people didn't pay attention until they heard a familiar voice saying:
"Boss, check out."
Fang Mujian suddenly looked up!
——The ordinary-looking black-haired boy wore a pair of black-framed glasses, but his fingers holding the phone were white and slender. He sat there, just like an ordinary college student, even with a cleaner temperament and more student-like air. He was completely different from the black-haired hunter in his impression, but inexplicably, he realized that this was him.
None of the four people spoke first, and only they could hear the beating of their own hearts.
Until the black-haired boy turned his head.
He didn't seem surprised at all who was sitting behind him. He just smiled and said, "Hello. I haven't seen you for more than a month. You all look very energetic."
"Xingxingyuan Hunter! It's really you!"
Xue Yinglong's eyes suddenly lit up: "Hahahaha, great, I thought you were dead!"
Su Xingyuan thought for a moment and said, "To be precise, he should be half dead."
Xue Yinglong: “Ah?”
"This is a little hard to explain, but it's Schrödinger's death." The black-haired boy said briskly, "I have a skill that allows me to be invincible for three seconds, immune to all damage within three seconds. This is why I can still sit here and talk to you after I exploded."
Fang Mujian was shocked by Su Xingyuan's choice of words. He stopped imagining the word "exploded" and asked, "What does half-dead mean...?"
"It means that the explosion was too clean this time."
The black-haired boy sighed: "You know me. Every time I use this skill, I have to manually put myself back together. After all, I have to wait for my body to heal automatically. Who knows what it will look like?"
Fang Mujian: “…” Do you think you are doing very well?
Su Xingyuan continued, "But this time the difficulty has increased significantly, so I decided to wait until my body is assembled into several large pieces before coming back to look for my body parts."
Xu Banmeng: "Congratulations, it looks like you have found it, and your aesthetic sense has returned to normal."
Su Xingyuan shook his head: "No, I didn't find it."
Xu Banmeng raised his eyebrows in surprise, waiting for Su Xingyuan's next words.
"Because my body was shattered so thoroughly, my consciousness temporarily returned to the resurrection point, and I used my strength to create another body," Su Xingyuan explained his own explanation for being "half dead and half alive." "Logically, I should be dead in this state, but because I died under the skill state, I am not completely dead - after all, if I am judged dead, you will probably restart with me."
“…”
The four of them were brainstorming together.
Ning Baiquan asked first: "Resurrection point?"
"It's hell." The black-haired boy said as a matter of course: "Didn't I tell you? I am the lord of hell."
“…”
“………”
"…………What?!!"
*
In fact, things are not complicated if you think about it seriously. The Lord of Hell coexists with hell, and he will not truly die unless hell is destroyed. However, due to the save and load settings of the game, he would directly reload the game every time he died, and he would not have the chance to try out this special ability.
As for the fact that he had not appeared for more than a month, it was even more normal. During this period of time, he was busy thinking about how to keep his body in human form while still storing his outrageous power. Not to mention what exploded before, at least the newly emerged power would not burst the new body too quickly, allowing him to make a few more magic batteries that can store energy, and throw them to the industrial construction in the territory for power supply.
After doing all this, he came to the Hunter World to check the situation.
Su Xingyuan was not worried about whether the world would have difficulty recovering after the disaster was over, because when the magic power exploded at the end, following the principle that so much magic power would be wasted, he directly tried to manipulate time himself. This was also the reason why all the war damage was restored to normal after the disaster was over.
And now, he is searching the world for his body parts.
After all, this is the first character created in the game and has a certain commemorative significance, so Su Xingyuan doesn't really want to give up.
So when the world consciousness woke up from its slumber, it saw Su Xingyuan pinching one of his arms and lost in thought.
It shuddered and instantly remembered the tragic scene of the black-haired hunter exploding in front of its eyes. It caused great harm to its heart and almost made it faint again.
"Hey, you're awake."
Su Xingyuan greeted with a smile.
Most of his body had been put together, leaving only his head. I just don't know whether the head is intact or blown apart.
Su Xingyuan is in a good mood, but news about him keeps coming out.
[B City’s surveillance seems to have discovered traces of the Suxingyuan Hunter! 】
[The mystery of the survival of the hunters in Suexingyuan? 4D Analysis】
[The owner of a breakfast shop in J City claimed to have personally seen a hunter from the Starfield eat at the shop]
[A suspicious scene!] There is a suspected human corpse in the sack of a man on the roadside? ! 】
…
These true and false news will break out from time to time. The name Su Xingyuan has even become a kind of traffic password by default. People have gradually become accustomed to seeing this hunter in hot searches every now and then. However, there is always debate about whether Su Xingyuan is alive or dead.
Until one day, a man dragging a sack was put on the big screen at the intersection for running a red light.
A passerby waiting for the red light sighed: "The last person who ran a red light here in a strange way seemed to be the Suxingyuan Hunter."
…
Passerby: “No.”
That night, the entry #宿星原执行红光第二次# became a hot search.
Netizens thought it was another celebrity trying to get attention and read on with their keyboards ready:
etc.
Doesn’t this celebrity look a bit too much like the Star Hunter?
...Fuck!
Are you serious? !
Su Xingyuan accidentally ran a red light because he was so focused on finding his way: Qv<
A month later, the social software was paralyzed again due to the hot search #宿星原的真实性的成为是鬼鬼之主#.
[I always feel that with the presence of the Star Hunter, our daily lives have suddenly become chaotic]
——Sharp comments from netizens.
[But in this world, the reason why daily life can be called daily life is because it is the daily life with the existence of the Star Hunter. 】
The person holding the phone sent this sentence and raised his head.
A black-haired boy, with the afterglow of the setting sun on his body, was squatting on the treetop, with a pitch-black kitten lying on his shoulder. Noticing her gaze, he looked over, slightly curved his eyes and smiled.
[Because of the Xingyuan Hunters, even if you walk on the most ordinary road, you may encounter beautiful scenery. 】
