The Hunter System
Chapter 168 - The Beginning of the Great Battle
Alvin immediately hid himself using the ghost skill as the teenage girl turned her head towards him.
After closing all the giant gates on the island of Borneo, he immediately went to Beijing, intending to help the hunters who were in that place to close the 99 gates that were there.
But, by the time he got there, the entire gate had already disappeared.
Alvin could guess who had helped the hunters to close the gates when he saw Anna Lloyd there.
'So he's back...'
It was at that moment that Anna turned her head and looked straight at him and she quickly hid herself using the ghost skill.
But...
Degs...
'He can see me?'
Alvin frowned, looking at Anna who was still staring straight at him who should not be visible. It also did not emit any magic aura at all, to the point that it made no sense for the girl to be able to sense its presence.
["No need to care about that. Let's go back to City S. We don't know if any more angels will open the gates there."]
Alvin nodded slowly but he remained silent for a while, looking at a beautiful blonde woman standing near Anna.
["She's Miss Lo."]
'Yes?'
["The woman you're looking at."]
Glup...
'Why he...'
["Similar to Cyntia?"]
'Yes.'
["I was also shocked when I saw Cyntia for the first time. They're both very similar, even I think her face is exactly the same as Miss Lo's."]
'Are they twin brothers?'
["..."]
'...Just a thought passing by.'
["The twins won't have exactly the same face."]
'You're right. Other than the hair color, their faces were completely the exact same.'
["That's it, let's go back."]
Alvin went to a very quiet place and opened a gate there using the Art of Killing skill. He then went inside the gate and appeared at another gate he had left in his former battle area against the angel of the purple vortex, in S City.
.........
There were already many hunters from the Association and the military gathered at the place to clear the already destroyed area, also guarding the gate that Alvin had left behind.
The Hunter-hunter Association who was guarding the gate was aghast when the gate had suddenly disappeared, then their faces looked relieved afterwards.
Lowe Frostman who knew that it was a gate made by Alvin just asked them to keep watch without telling anything until they thought it was the gate of a Dungeon.
'How loving.'
["They must have been horrified to guard the gate lately."]
'You're right.'
Alvin smiled bitterly, recalling how often Dungeon Breaks these days were making hunters and S City residents live with feelings of fear and unease.
...****************...
Half a month passed after 5 giant gates were present on the island of Borneo.
Although Mina closed all information on the island so that it could not be accessed by the world, but residents in 5 cities on the island can still access the information that happened there.
That's why Alvin who is considered a hero on the island became a warm conversation among the residents and all hunters.
Although no videos and photos were in circulation, all the witnesses were around the gate, who kept talking about how he wiped out the entire monster, and the, keep talking about it until in the end Alvin became a byword everywhere.
In addition to Alvin, Lowe Frostman who is very alert to the situation also get respect from residents and hunters in 5 cities.
That is why, as Southeast Asia is busy in finding a replacement for the chairman of the Central Association who has been killed, he said, residents and hunters in 5 cities sent their voices in support of Lowe Frostman to become chairman of the Central Association.
With the help that Mina gave secretly, Lowe Frostman was eventually elected chairman of the Central Association.
Mina hacked the electoral system so neatly, that Lowe's vote beat his competitors from other cities.
'What are you doing that won't get caught?'
["Unless I am currently investigating it, everything will be safe."]
'You're very supportive of Mr. Frostman.'
["I've told you that he is a hunter who has an excellent leadership spirit and is highly dedicated. You can see the results later. There are not only 5 cities on the island. Southeast Asia will be more advanced under his leadership."]
'...You've told me so many times.'
["Because of that, just trust me."]
.........
"It's hard to walk around in peace," cyntia said as she arrived on top of the rubble of the high building where Alvin had been hiding after escaping from a young hunter who happened to find her walking with Cyntia, to ask for a picture with her.
Alvin responded with a faint smile. He recalled how he used to be scorned by hunters who met him wherever he went because of his very weak self.
"If you're experiencing a revival at F-rank, at least don't become a Healer. You're completely useless and will bring bad luck to your teammates."
He always gets the same mockery. The mockery that Brondy created and spread very quickly among the Association hunters and students of Hunter Academy.
In the end, after getting the Main Jobs, Alvin knew that the ratings were not very meaningful.
From the experience of fighting with monsters in the past 9 months, he realized that good fighting techniques and speed in killing were everything. Of course, great Mana energy was needed as well.
Various skills are not needed. The most important thing was the speed of a hunter to be able to kill prey before the hunt realized it.
Prolonged battles using too many skills, would deplete Mana energy, it could also damage nature if it were done on Earth.
......................
"It's rare that a Dungeon has appeared lately" said Cyntia, breaking Alvin's daydream.
Alvin nodded slowly and smiled faintly.
He remembered what the jet-black creature said to Li Wen Xia who asked the woman to stop their activities on this island and hand the island over to him.
In the end, creatures from the purple vortex and white vortex were killed, until Dungeons rarely appeared.
"Because Dungeon makers have started to decrease" said Alvin.
"Dungeon Maker?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"You mean?"
Alvin took a deep breath and exhaled again no matter how slow he took a breath.
He then recounts his experiences during this time and what he knew about the Dungeon-makers and how the Dungeon was formed in Cyntia.
Alvin told him everything in detail, until he stopped when he sensed a terrifying magic aura coming from a very distant place.
Alvin stood up with a hardened face, feeling uncomfortable with that over-excessive magic aura.
'What's this? Is there another giant gate?'
Alvin took his cell phone and went to the WABC line.
He and Cyntia then saw a live broadcast from a port city in China, where a huge, crystallized red gate appeared.
'It's terrible. I have to go there.'
["Don't leave this town."]
'Why? That gate is dangerous!'
["The gate is very dangerous. But the root of the problem will appear here."]
