Chapter 338: Chapter 288 Night of the Hunt_3

Just as the old Hunter was puzzled about what he was intending to do, Lind stood in the circle, his body suddenly erupting in flames.

Flames soared to the sky, connecting the ground and the heavens.

Soon after, the old Hunter heard a roar from the sky, as a giant beast with spread wings dove down!

Flying Dragons!

The ground trembled upon the heavy impact of the Flying Dragon, the vibration shooting through the old Hunter’s buttocks into his body, clutching at his heart.

A figure leaped down from the back of the dragon.

The woman clad in gold armor moved with grace, and the old Hunter knew she was no ordinary person; she resembled Queen Rania he had heard of recently.

So, the Golden Knight before me is the Duke who owns a dragon?

All the previous inconsistencies had now made sense.

"Alex knows you’re summoning it."

"I was supposed to set off fireworks," Lind raised his hand, gently stroking the Flying Dragon’s head, "but the temperature on me was too high, and the fireworks couldn’t hold and all exploded, so I had to use this method instead."

"How are things?" he inquired.

Rania recounted everything she had seen and heard at the round table meeting, essentially no different from what old Hunter Charles had said; the Fox Hole wasn’t the issue, the Blood Clan lurking in the shadows was.

"I really should have gone directly there," said Lind.

Go there directly, then grab that Red Nun.

"You mean the Black Catfish Prince was there too?"

The Black Catfish Prince was a term of disdain.

But considering Rania’s disregard for the man before her, it seemed only normal for her to use a derogatory term for her uncle.

"Are you sure it’s still him?"

"Not sure," Rania shook her head, looking at Lind, "just like I’m not sure if you’re still you."

The main cooperation between the Old and New Nobility manifested in the brief opening of their territorial borders for trade, allowing free commerce between the two.

But this was not good news for Lind; to the New Nobility, this was an embrace open to Lind, a gesture of goodwill, but for Lind... the Undead had originally no desire to trek for days to his territory, and now, if I arrange for caravans to go there, even fewer people would want to come.

However, this was also good news for Lind; his current expenditure meant that he had briefly cleansed his reputation.

His investment was all to make himself look more like The Officials.

And now, with access between the Main Cities, he was an "official NPC," something Lind had always wanted to cloak himself in, precisely because an NPC was esteemed in the hearts of all the Undead.

As long as an "official NPC" declared who was right, they were right, and who was evil, they were evil!

"Riven City and we must both send a military force to Fox Hole, with at least 20 Great Knights," she said.

"Let the folks at Emerald Hill go then," Lind had never considered sending his own soldiers there; instead, the market knights, who were slowly getting accustomed to undertaking NPC-style tasks, were the ones to go. They could, with their more lively approach, attract enough Undead.

The market knights also had their uses, as each had their own personality, more like living beings.

"Also... Charles!"

"Yes!" The old Hunter didn’t know why he was so respectful towards Lind, perhaps because of the high-temperature dragon before him.

"I think your Hunter Society should embrace some fresh blood."

Charles, puzzled, replied, "How, how should I do that?"

"First, you need to sit in a wheelchair."

...

Almost all the Undead that arrived at the clearing in front of Fox Hole witnessed three forces.

The first group was Riven Soldiers, inspecting their equipment, with a few of them being Undead.

As soldiers of the "New Nobility," they naturally did not get along with the Old Nobility and were prepared to rush in and fight seriously, showing the remnants of the old era what being formidable really meant.

The second group was from Mountain Demon Castle, the market knights, who were the complete opposite of the Riven Soldiers; far from preparing equipment and weapons, they brought out scrolls instead.

Some were even sticking wooden boards.

The Undead who had spent time in Star Dragon City immediately realized this was one of Lind’s old traditions.

Indeed, they read, [Fox Hole dungeon now open], when it came to seizing the initiative, Lind never missed an opportunity.

The last group was the old Hunter, Charles, sitting in a wheelchair.

He had a table set up in front of him.

And he was offering both missions and invitations.
