Swish swish——
Amidst the subtle sound of breaking through the air, pedestrians on the busy street subconsciously looked up and saw a stream of light shooting toward the center of the city at high speed.
"Huh? I seem to have seen it several times today. What happened? Many powerful hunters are flying towards the Hunter Guild."
"Is it true that there are powerful demons causing trouble?"
"I really hope nothing happens."
At the Hunter Guild Headquarters, the high-speed flying light landed, revealing a fat male hunter with a smile like Maitreya Buddha.
He took off the wine bottle hanging from his waist, took a sip, and strode into the Hunter Guild headquarters. At the same time, his loud voice resounded throughout the building: "Old Sun! What on earth is going on? It cannot be said in the badge. Do you want me to return as soon as possible?" ! I still have..."
"Huh?" Dan Bucha's brows suddenly wrinkled. He waved away the approaching hunter, reached the eighth floor in a few flashes, and pushed open the door of the conference room.
"It's true, Lao Zhou and Feng Mei'er are all here. It seems that something happened is not trivial. Lao Sun, you didn't leak a word."
Sun Qin shook his head, and the thin female hunter sitting in another seat in front of the round table said: "Brother Sun is not worried about what happened to you. Brother Tang, you already know everything you should know and shouldn't know."
"Hahahaha, it's not that bad. Besides, you don't need to guard against people who shouldn't be guarded. The monsters that should be guarded against are always guarded against. When the day when the people around us are replaced by monsters and we don't know it, it means that we deserve to die. Where can we wait? There are monsters in this house every day, which proves that human beings deserve to die."
"You are still talking like this, Tang Bi. Is this why you leaked secrets while drunk at least five times?"
"Hahahaha..." There was another burst of laughter, and the divine hunter Tang Bi turned to Sun Qin who was sitting in the chair: "But it's you who is presiding over the meeting again, Old Sun, has the president already started to change cultivation... Ahem, this is terrible It’s not about prying into secrets, it’s just that everyone can guess it.”
Sun Qin said: "This matter... please continue to speculate. Brother Tang, please take a seat first. Our meeting today is very important."
Tang Bi looked serious and took a seat, with lumps of fat squeezed out from his thick thighs and the chair.
Sun Qin said in a deep voice: "Accurate information, the tenth god was born... a demon became a god!"
winter--
Regardless of whether they knew something or had never heard of it, when Vice President Sun Qin solemnly said these words, the hearts of every divine hunter present seemed to have been thrown into a boulder.
This is not just as simple as adding one to the number of the strongest people in the world, but changing the combat power ratio between monsters and humans from 6:3 to 7:3.
With less than 17 years left in the 300-year catastrophe, the top combat power has further expanded, which is a disaster for morale and all aspects!
"Is it... over there at White Tiger Fortress?"
"Yeah." Sun Qin sighed softly: "Two days ago, the new god suddenly appeared outside the White Tiger Fortress. He was discovered by a patrolling hunter and stunned the entire hunter team with his eyes. After that, he did not kill anyone, and rushed eastward. Go to the place where demons gather and directly call the demon god of hellfire to challenge him.
After the aura collision of the two destroyed the small half-demon settlement, they made a tacit agreement to move to the sea to the east to fight. According to Zhu Shenlie, the resident of the White Tiger Fortress, the new god's power was purple thunder and lightning. During the half day of the battle between the two gods, The entire East China Sea was shrouded in purple thunder and black fire, causing the sea level to drop as a whole and the sea topography to change drastically.
The final result should be a tie or a small defeat by the New God. The God of Hellfire has returned, but the whereabouts and traces of the New God are nowhere to be seen. "
The God Hunters were silent for a few seconds before Tang Bi said, "Why don't you kill one of them?"
"Without exhaustion of divine power, immortal body, and immortal life, it is not so easy to kill the opponent."
"Thunder and lightning, it sounds like trouble..."
"That black-haired flame monster has finally received retribution this time. He is probably very angry."
"Ah……"
All the divine hunters know that something similar happened once more than sixty years ago. At that time, the God of Hellfire had just become a god. He went directly to the demon settlement over the Qinglong Fortress to challenge the senior gods there and wanted to seize the territory. However, he was seriously injured and fled. This was how the White Tiger settlement was established. Let humans build the White Tiger Fortress.
Demons have such a view of society. In other words, except for a few settlements, demons have not formed a society. They only believe in a simple diet of the weak. Fighting to death for food territory is common, and there is no such thing as respecting the elderly and caring for the young among humans.
This time it was him who faced the challenger, but he maintained the dignity of the veteran god...
"Looking at it this way, we are ready to build the fifth fortress... Do we have enough manpower?"
"It's hard to say. The best territory for demons has been occupied. The new demon god may try to challenge a few others... We also have to beware of him attacking human cities."
"Can you confirm his identity before he changed to cultivating? Which demon god changed to cultivating? Why did he change so suddenly?"
"It's certain, but not certain." Sun Qin pushed the information in front of him to the center: "His identity is probably good news, well, maybe."
"It's all uncertain things...good news?" Tang Bi took a document with his fat hand.
[Demon number: 9999]
[Rank: Lower Thousand Great Demons]
[Name: Unknown]
[Previous human identity: Ji Xing]
[Place of Appearance: Jumu City belongs to Yangliu Town]
[Event (Achievements): Killed a high-ranking demon with absolutely crushing power. No magic power was released, no demonic powers were revealed, only considerable physical strength was shown.
Able to partially demonize, disguised as a human, with unknown latency, unknown purpose, extremely high intelligence and self-control, no cannibalism, and even able to comfort a low-level hunter boy whom he knew while disguised as a human, currently deep in the southwest of Yangliu Town Wilderness, destination unknown. 】
[Danger: extremely dangerous]
[Event details:...]
[Sacred Hunter's comment: "We cannot rule out the possibility that this is an old friend with a new identity. It may be secretly planning some big move. It is not recommended that non-numbered hunters try to hunt it down. Surrounding towns should be highly vigilant and report any abnormalities immediately!" 】
"Is it him?!" Tang Bi's fat face trembled: "I was the one who commented on this divine hunter! About... three years ago? This bastard... is really insidious!"
He showed extremely high wisdom and self-control, and was able to comfort the human teenagers he met while disguised. This was very special and consistent with the characteristics of turning into a demon god, so it left a deep impression on him.
Why didn't you suspect it at first? Because the opponent is partially demonized, you have to partially demonize to kill a high-ranking demon that is not at the level of a big demon!
What the hell, are you pretending to be weak?
And judging from the average transfer speed, he must have been very close to God three years ago!
"I also have some impressions." Sun Qin sighed: "The demon numbered 9999 was hunted just the day before, and his story was reported the next day. After hesitating for a while between the big demon and the numbered demon, I gave it to him. This number."
Who could have thought it would be today?
"A converted demon god actually risked exposing his disguise for the sake of a human boy he knew. However, he was exposed at a critical moment not far from the success of his conversion. No one could have predicted it. Alas..."
"Looking at it this way, this low-level hunter named Yi Nan is very important to him... Where is this young man now?"
Sun Qin said: “After receiving the news, I collected his information as quickly as possible and learned the relevant details through the radio station.
During his time in Yangliu Town, the demon god under the pseudonym Ji Xing made a living by setting up a chess stall. Yi Nan, a 15-year-old junior hunter at the time, wanted to learn chess and got to know Ji Xing well. Later, he had some disputes with his mother. , the seven years of persistence that trapped the upper demon with motherly love and perseverance came to an end.
After Ji Xing killed the big demon, he comforted Yi Nan into the wilderness. Soon after, Yi Nan was promoted to an intermediate hunter and was transferred to the White Tiger Fortress. "
"...White Tiger Fortress?"
"It's not a coincidence." Sun Qin said: "It's probably not a coincidence that the New God Ji Xing appeared outside the White Tiger Fortress and stunned a group of patrolling hunters. He may indeed be visiting Yi Nan. Of course, it does not rule out that he wants us to have this misunderstanding. possible.
After two and a half years of training in the White Tiger Fortress, Yi Nan has become the captain of a hunter team. He is rated at the upper limit of an upper-level hunter and can leapfrog to fight weaker monsters. He may absorb spiritual power into his body at any time and become a reserve numbered hunter. "
"Um, 18?"
"What a little genius..."
The hunters of the gods looked at each other, call?
Sun Qin said: "It's best not to go too far and let Shen Jixing think we are threatening. Let nature take its course. When he is promoted to a hunter with a reserve number, it is reasonable to transfer him to study in Zhongdu.
Of course, during this period, I will ask Zhu Shenlie to pay more attention to him. The attitude of the New God is ambiguous, we... must try our best to fight for it. "
After the words fell, the atmosphere changed slightly, and the eyes of several hunters began to wander.
Amidst the harsh creaking sound, Tang Bi pushed away the chair and stood up, snorting coldly: "What do you think I am doing? Indeed, I do not support this kind of thing. Even if the demon god becomes a god, even if he does it for the sake of mankind, I will not Support the fight for these 'gods'!
On the way to becoming a demon god, countless humans died in its mouth. Now just because he has become stronger, can he forget those? !
Of course, I also know that this is a helpless idea, so... I know the matter, and I will not participate in the next meeting. "
After saying this, he turned and left, leaving the remaining divine hunter to sigh helplessly.
After closing the door of the conference room, Tang Bi sighed softly, his fat face trembling.
He glanced around and noticed the hunter clerk waiting around the corner. He walked over and said, "What's the matter?"
"Ah, hello, Tang Shenlie!" The clerk bowed slightly to greet him and said, "Yes, something happened at the institute. The new research direction proposed by Associate Professor Li He is to assist superior hunters in absorbing spiritual power and promotion numbers. Hunter side.”
"Oh? Does anyone want to try this again? Associate Professor Li He... airship, walkie-talkie?"
"yes!"
Tang Bi thought for a while: "It will probably take some time before Old Sun presides over the meeting. Let me go and have a look."
"Yes, thank you for your hard work."
Tang Bi waved his hand and disappeared.
Two minutes later, he flew to the closed research institute in the southeast of Zhongdu, landed, and stretched out his fat hand to the guard: "Hurry up, hurry up."
This place is heavily guarded. Even if the divine hunter comes in or out, he will be pricked by the magic manifesting needle, so Tang Bi doesn't come often.
After verifying his identity, a researcher came to greet him. Knowing his purpose, he led him towards Ji Xing's area.
"After inventing airships and walkie-talkies, the researchers and assistants in the institute are actually looking forward to Associate Professor Li He's new direction, but this...this direction, as you know, has exhausted manpower and material resources for hundreds of years, and Shen Hunter has personally Cooperation also..."
Tang Bi waved his hand, indicating that the other party did not need to say more, and stopped in front of a red door.
His big ears like a cattail fan flapped, and a voice from inside came into his ears: "I know everyone is not optimistic about me. Some people who saw me a few days ago were smiling and avoiding my eyes, for fear of me. Choose you as my assistant, haha...
It’s human nature, I understand.
But I want to ask everyone to ask in their hearts, what do you want? You are in Zhongdu, in this research institute, enjoying the best protection and various treatments. What do you want?
Invent a useful tool that will make your name known to the world and amass untold wealth?
Isn't it? I have been here for five months and have observed many people. I believe that there are people like that, but most people still want to do their part in the war between humans and demons! "
"The significance of this research cannot be overemphasized. Repeated failures and repeated pick-ups prove its importance. Nothing can compare with it!
Indeed, this is difficult. Countless professors with profound knowledge have failed. There has been no important breakthrough for hundreds of years. All they have gained are side effects, which makes people feel that it is impossible to succeed!
】
But before the invention of airships, I said I wanted ordinary people to fly into the sky. Do you believe me?
Before the invention of walkie-talkies, I said that I wanted ordinary people to be able to communicate remotely like using contact badges. Do you believe it?
Think about the hunters in towns and cities who have to patrol every day and may encounter danger at any time. Think about the hunters in the four major fortresses who fight against monsters every day. Don’t they want to live a more comfortable life? There must be people in those positions!
The same is true for this research, someone must make efforts for this, someone must be in this position! If you don’t even have the courage to try, then the probability of success will really be zero!
And I believe, it will succeed! It can be us! It can also be a team that uses our research data a hundred years later!
In short, everything is for mankind! "
The atmosphere inside was slightly restless.
Tang Bi was silent for a few seconds, then turned around with a wide smile and said, "It's approved, I approved it. You will cooperate fully, and the guild will also provide support."
"Uh, yes, I understand!"
In the research institute, Ji Xing glanced at the door from the corner of his eye: "An aura that I have never seen before, very strong, a single-digit hunter?" Is it because I came to the meeting? '
The flying speed after becoming a god was astonishing. It only took Ji Xing one night to fly to the White Tiger Fortress in the east. After fighting with the God of Hellfire for half a day, it was night again when he flew back.
In those days, he and Xiao Ai were shopping together or separately. It was almost five months since he disappeared during the day without attracting anyone's attention.
But achieving the goal is not perfect.
Choosing the God of Hellfire, who is the first or second best among the nine gods, Ji Xing's original goal is to try to severely damage it and make his own existence more dazzling, so as to collect more starlight faster.
But something unexpected happened during the battle.
Starlight [Five Stars]: 11.3 billion/100 billion
In the battle that lasted for half a day, Ji Xing collected a total of 8.2 billion starlight from the demon gathering place and the White Tiger Fortress. Adding in the original 700 million plus, it was exactly 9 billion. The remaining 2.3 billion was obtained by simply fermenting the news in the past two days. Come.
But 500 million of those 8.2 billion are wrong.
When he was fighting the God of Hellfire, he kept paying attention to the starlight. After the two tested each other for three minutes, his starlight suddenly jumped significantly.
Twice, once 200 million, and once 300 million!
Separation is only given to two people!
This matter is not simple. Among all the powerful people Ji Xing has seen so far, only Kaguya has the ability to personally give out more than 1 billion starlights. The rest are quite different.
After testing, the Hellfire God's strength should be similar to that of Hagoromo as an adult, and the limit of individual starlight he can give is around 500 million.
He can only give out 500 million if he beats him to the ground, so it's obviously not him these two times.
Just looking at the battle between the two, they gave 200 to 300 million stars respectively. Kaguya's level should be even higher than Kaguya's!
More importantly, Ji Xing could not find or discover where the two people watching the match were!
And his ultimate strength after becoming a god is probably similar to that of Kaguya, who he has never trained. I am afraid he is not a match for these two guys.
So in that battle, he didn't use time powers or special skills. He only used his thunder and lightning powers and the God of Hellfire, both of whom were injured and retreated in half a day.
'Another god?' The two relatively powerful ones among the Nine Gods? Can't find it, space ability? '
Although it failed to achieve the goal, after fermenting for a period of time, Starlight should be barely enough.
I'll be quiet for now. When I go to Naruto World, I need to be exposed to and learn spatial abilities!
While all kinds of thoughts were flashing, a researcher in front of him was infected by him: "Associate Professor Li He, thank you for your teaching, please let me join your project!"
"And I!"
"I want to join too!"
The sounds were noisy, one after another.
Ji Xing smiled: "Then next, it's my turn to test everyone's knowledge."
…
Over the next month or so, the news of the birth of the tenth God Ji Star gradually spread to the entire human hierarchy and among the powerful demons.
The four capitals, east, west, south, north and four fortresses all held meetings for this purpose and made all preparations.
For Ji Xing, who "turned from a demon to a god", the strong human beings remained in awe, while the strong demons, who preyed on the weak and the strong, respected and worshiped Ji Xing, providing Ji Xing with a lot of starlight.
Finally, when his scientific research team was formed and preliminary preparations completed, Starlight slowly but powerfully climbed past the 30 billion mark!
Starlight [Five Stars]: 30 billion/100 billion
[Can capture the invasion of four-and-a-half-star worlds, whether to invade or not]
[You can use the special rewards "Falling Star Capture" and "Opportunity of Recovery" obtained from the one-star and a half world to capture the five-star world of Naruto. Do you want to capture it? 】
"Phew, here it comes!"
…
At the same time, in front of the south gate of Zhongdu.
Under the magnificent city wall, a young man is looking up at the simple plaque with the word "Zhongdu" written on it.
He is about 18 years old, has short hair, and looks as delicate as a girl. Only the slightly protruding muscles in his arms and a small scar on his right cheek add to his masculinity.
"Huh, here we are."
Mom, brother Ji Xing, I am finally a little closer to becoming a divine hunter!
