Chapter 577 (1/2)
The moment Vivian finished her words, everyone immediately raised their guard. The Mobile Data Terminal quickly displayed the spatial waves it sensed in front of Hao Ren. Hao Ren then took his silver lance and gun out of his dimensional pocket and aimed at the open space in front of them.
Above the open space, the air suddenly twisted and then quickly turned into a shiny oval mirror. Four people strode out from there.
The leader was a strict-looking man with gray hair and wearing an eyepatch on one eye. Beside him stood a dark-skinned man with bald head, who looked slightly like an Indian. And behind the two were two women. One of them was a tall woman dressed in a simple dress, with brown long hair, and there was a layer of faint green scales on her cheeks that was slowly fading away, while the other woman kept a very conspicuous silvery-white long hair, who was someone they met before—White Flame!
Except for the woman wearing a dress, the other three were dressed in the standard attire of demon hunters: a long black trench coat, a strap on the waist, and a big crossbow on the back. This was obviously a demon-hunter squad.
The three demon hunters were surprised to find that there were already people on the beach. The one-eyed man and the bald man immediately raised the crossbow, preparing to attack. But when they saw the disparity in the number of people between them and Hao Ren’s team, they did not act blindly but stopped moving with the crossbows in their hand. White Flame was a little surprised after recognized them, her straight face slightly twitched, but she soon calmed down, maintaining the vigilant posture while signaling Hao Ren with her eyes not to greet her rashly. Although she reported to her mentor about the hunting of vengeful spirits after returning from Andrei Castle, she did not tell them about the ‘Countess of the Crimson Moon’. It was better not to show that they knew each other.
It also proved that White Flame had kept her promise and did not reveal too much to the other demon hunters.
Hao Ren also got it. Vivian immediately threw a bat at Lily’s face to stop her from talking: this stupid girl was about to jump excitedly and say hello to White Flame.
The most stressful person on the scene was Nangong Sanba. This amateur demon hunter pretended to be a professional in the circle of demon hunters was caught red-handed by the real demon hunters. He broke out in a cold sweat and knew that his life of being a demon hunter was ended. From now on, he was going to need two copies of his will when he went out…
Rollie was looking at the sea on the rocky beach. When she saw what was happening in front of her and the reaction of her master(s), she immediately sensed the murderous vibe in the air. She lay down, her tail stood up like an iron rod, the fur on her ears and tail puffed up, and shrieked, “Meow—”
The first battle roar of Hao Ren’s team was actually coming from a cat.
“It’s a surprise,” said the one-eyed man with a watchful face, and even if the situation was unfavorable, he was unafraid and spoke firmly and loudly. “I didn’t expect to meet a group of prey here.”
“Are you sure you’re the hunting ones?” Vivian was surrounded by a large swarm of bats with lightning in the swarm of bats. Cold winds gusted and dispersed around that even the distant waves directly turned into large snowflakes when they hit the reef. “What the hell are you doing here?” asked Vivian.
Rollie was shivering with cold but she still arched her back, ready to fight. “Meow… Meowoooooo…”
A layer of shield-like glowing light rose up around the one-eyed man to protect him from the chilling wind. However, when he saw Vivian, he stunned for a moment. He broke out in a cold sweat and asked, “The lady standing over there… the Countess… Your Excellency?”
Lily was surprised. “Why is he so polite all of a sudden?”
Vivian frowned, trying to recall whether she met this one-eyed man before. Finally, she remembered that he was the most famous one-eyed man among the demon hunters. “Young men are certainly won’t be so polite to me, only the older ones will—because they still remember seniority, right Hasse. Boy, what the hell are you doing here?”
Hao Ren looked astonished. “This is the one-eyed Hasse?”
One-eyed Hasse, the famous elder among the Demon Hunters, the old man who existed since the mythological age, was one of the leaders who destroyed Mount Olympus. It was said that this man nearly killed Hesperides. The arrowhead had been stuck in her head for thousands of years.
A man who sounded like a big shot—but was still just a ‘boy’ in Vivian’s eyes. Vivian also knew that her own seniority was a powerful weapon at the moment, so she tried to get the upper hand with her seniority.
The lady did not care about her age at the moment.
Hassel’s expression quickly turned odd, which was not awkward, but worried. He did not expect that it would be so unlucky today. He took a short-cut to directly teleport here but ended up falling into the siege, and the worst thing was that there was a world-famous Countess of the Crimson Moon in the siege. Even someone like Hasse had to bow to Vivian respectfully before the fight. How unlucky!
