Aura Hunter

"A few days ago, an ice ape in the cold wind pine forest was infected with the abyss. Not only did his body and appearance mutate, but his temperament also became violent and frantic. He was manipulated by an extreme appetite and kept killing and predatory. All kinds of creatures, hunting them, that is the content of your second trial."

After Lyle announced the new mission, Ye Chen's expression immediately flooded with a surprised look, because he didn't expect it at all. , his goal this time will actually be related to that dark, sticky, weird substance.

"The wild beast is stained with...the abyss?" The puzzled teenager murmured: "Isn't the abyss only existing outside the border? How could such a thing happen? ?".

"The cold wind pine forest was originally not far from the border, perhaps a cave tunnel running through the ground was accidentally discovered by those seamless things, but you have to deal with the abyss early. , don't think too much, just concentrate on solving the prey."

Lyle replied casually, and then added some information.

"The journey is not short, so you can go on a horse. In addition, although the target this time is a wild beast that has not experienced nightmares, it is polluted by the abyss, and it has the ability to completely cooperate with Aura. Another power of different, so it is much more dangerous than the fugitive you just killed, don't be careless, always keep in mind the three rules of hunters."

After that, Lyle waved his hand, indicating the two This is the end of the human conversation.

"Understood, I'll set off now."

Ye Chen touched his head, although he was still confused about the situation of the abyss invasion, he did not continue to pester his teacher. I planned to simply pack up and check the weapons on my waist and the props in my backpack, and then quickly walked out of the door of the church.

On the flat snow outside the door, a horse with dark fur, deep eyes, and a calm and extraordinary temperament is standing in the snow, kicking its hooves and breathing heat, as if Received instructions from the owner Lyle in advance, and was ready to welcome Ye Chen.

This is Lyle's favorite horse, Hedge.

As early as Ye Chen can remember, this black horse has always accompanied master and disciple, and Ye Chen's equestrian skills were also honed on Heiqi's wide back since he was a child .

Although Heiqi is a horse, for Ye Chen, it is still the same irreplaceable relative as Lyle, and Heiqi watched Ye Chen grow up, so he looks at Ye Chen Chen's eyes were like those of his own child.

The young man gently stroked the thick neck of the old horse, and the old horse also gently rubbed his head towards the young man. For a time, one person and one horse seemed very intimate.

"Okay, the cold wind pine forest is in the west, Heiqi, let's go." Ye Chen skillfully sat on the horse's back, took the reins and said to Heiqi.

Heiqi responded with a low voice. Although it has an expression and attitude that is unique to an old horse, its leg strength seems to be permanently fixed in the Peak moment.

I saw it lifted its strong hooves, and it was like a gust of wind, and it flew down the mountain with Ye Chen.

The old church where Ye Chen lived all the year round and the surrounding mountain range are located in the southeast area of the Eternal Winter Hidden Region, while the Cold Wind Pine Forest is located in the southwest region of the Eternal Winter Hidden Region.

Although the two are located at the two ends of Small World, the distance is only less than 50 kilometers. Coupled with Heiqi's terrifying speed and physical strength, Ye Chen will be able to reach it in about half an hour. Already in the whistling wind, he reached a wide forest path.

And the snow forest surrounding him is the location of this second trial: the cold wind pine forest.

"It's here, but in such a huge area, how can I find that ice ape..."

Ye Chen sat on the back of a horse and supported him. Jaw thought.

The location where he used to hone his hunting skills is usually the mountain range near the church. Although Ye Chen has learned about the cold wind pine forest through books, he has never personally visited it, so he has a good understanding of the local terrain. Not familiar.

And the reason why Lyle did not specify the exact location of this trial may be to see what kind of actions Ye Chen will take to solve the problem in such an unknown situation. Bar.

However, not long after Ye Chen began to think about his next move, a small rustling sound suddenly came from the bushes on the side of the trail.

Cultivation's fighting instinct for many years made Ye Chen pull out the revolver around his waist that was already full of ammo without the slightest hesitation.

But to his surprise, what came out of the bushes was not some ferocious wild beast, but five hoarfrosts in fur coats, carrying shotguns and holding bows and arrows.

At the first sight of the other party, Ye Chen immediately lifted the mask hidden under his collar to cover his face below the bridge of the nose.

The long-eared and white-skinned people who walked out of the bushes had solemn expressions at first.

But after discovering that the source of the sound was just a pedestrian on horseback, they involuntarily put down their bows and arrows and looked at Ye Chen on the horse with a puzzled look.

It seems that these people are not robbers... they should be residents of the village near the cold wind pine forest.

Ye Chen looked at everyone's expressions, and after analyzing the situation, he slowly pulled the revolver back into his arms.

The Baishuang people headed forward and observed Ye Chen who covered his face for a while, and then he asked vigilantly in Baishuang language: "I have never seen you in this mountainous area, Where did you come from? What are you going to do here?"

Faced with the sudden question, Ye Chen was not panicked and replied in a calm tone and standard Baishuang language: "I am The residents of Baishuang City, because they are very interested in the ecology of the local ice apes, want to see it for themselves, so they come here to look for their traces."

Ye Chen told the lie, and his emotions were very calm. Naturally, this kind of skillful speaking skills are also the result of many years of cultivation under Lyle, which is enough to make these villagers in the mountains not see the slightest clue.

But after learning Ye Chen's identity, their faces were still invariably ugly.

What happened to this reaction?

Just as Ye Chen was a little puzzled, the headed Hoarfrost immediately shook his head sighed, and explained in a hoarse voice: "Recently, an extremely dangerous giant ape has emerged here, stirring up the cold wind pine forest. Heaven and Earth turned upside down, so that the forest is now almost full of corpses and remains of creatures that have been eaten by it, and more than a dozen people in our village have been eaten... In order to stop the atrocities of the beasts, this Only in groups came out to hunt it, so if you, a city person who doesn't know the situation, want to survive, you'd better leave this forest before it gets dark!"

The original one The wild beast contaminated by the abyss has already caused such a serious impact...

Ye Chen sighed inwardly, and then nods to the villager Squad who crusades the cannibal monster.

"I understand, so count me as one."

"Huh?"

Everyone was stunned after hearing this, but they only saw the sitting The young man on the back of the horse shook the revolver with the silver light in his hand, and declared in a calm tone: "I am also a hunter, this time I am here to hunt apes, please let me join you and help you. "
