The Hunter System

The Hunter System
Chapter 147 - The Hunter City C

When Alvin first opens the gates of death and after Ziz and Leviathan return from his fear, Alvin gets a deadly attack from both mythical creatures.


At that moment, the form of Hunter Equipment was active by itself, protecting Alvin from the melee attacks detected by Hunter Equipment as a very dangerous attack even though Alvin, who was the only one in the world, which is too strong to be harmed by such an attack, actually will not experience injury even will not experience a scratch wound at all because of it.


That's why Mina asked Alvin to be fully aware to control his magic so that the form of Hunter Equipment is no longer active accidentally as long as he is still in City C.


Mina also asked him to close the gate connecting between Dungeon and City C so that the magic energy from inside Dungeon did not leak out.


In addition, before Alvin went to the location where a Dungeon Break occurred, Mina also asked him to 'borrow' an Association laptop hunter who was on the bus to carry out the hack. Mina does so to remove any trace of Alvin's whereabouts in City C.


Alvin knows that Mina does not want her whereabouts to be known to the City C hunter-hunters. However, what Mina did according to him was already too much.


Even so, Alvin still followed what Mina wanted and did not ask why his attitude was too excessive.


......................


At the same time as the active form of Hunter Equipment Alvin, a teenage girl who was in a basement of City C and was busy picking up an avatar hunter, was, shocked by the aura from the magic energy that had just suddenly appeared and disappeared very quickly.


That magic energy was very familiar to him. It was unfortunate that he was busy piloting his avatar so that he could not immediately check the location of the existence of the hunter who had just activated the magic aura.


It was only after his hunter avatar ran out of Mana energy, after he used it to fight against powerful monsters in a Dungeon, that he had, the girl finally went to her study room to check the location where she had felt the existence of a magic aura that she was very familiar with.


Unfortunately, he found nothing there. With the spy camera device at his disposal, he did not even discover any foreign hunters coming to C City with the magic aura he was already familiar with.


"Squeaky. Am I hallucinating?"


Miyuki finally left the reconnaissance device and left her study room to prepare a replacement kit for her hunter avatar that had sustained little damage after overuse in heavy combat.


...****************...


Alvin watches how the powerful hunters of C City are fighting against giant snakes in an area.


The hunters fought very organized, although it was clear that they were too tired because they almost ran out of Mana energy to sometimes escape one or two giant snakes from the encirclement.


'Does City C indeed have many hunters this strong?'


["It shouldn't."]


'Then how can they be as strong as Tia? They're not hunters from out of town, are they?'


Alvin had already seen the faces of the hunters on the website of the Southeast Asia Hunter Association and he knew that they were hunters registered in City C except for an S rank hunter, Wang Zhu Ming, who was a hunter from City A.


["I was surprised too. They shouldn't be this strong. Sure...,"] Mina stopped her speech.


'Yes?'


["...I think there's someone who increases their strength and rank."]


'...Just sec. Do you know these guys?'


["..."]



While Rimi spoke, Alvin took out his dagger. He then went to help the hunters to finish off the giant snakes that escaped their encirclement.


'It's a pity if they have to fight to the age of twilight. Are there no hunters from other countries like this?'


["There are actually almost none. Although there are, each powerful hunter usually only seeks to protect their own country."]


'How dear. If they wanted to work together.'


["That's how.."]


'Rimi said that these hunters would survive until 2110, right?'


["You see that red-haired man?"]


Alvin turned to look at a tall man who was the most powerful among his comrades. Alvin recognized him immediately. He is Kevin Jung, the only SSSS ranked hunter who has just been verified by the World Association.


["He will die in 2090."]


'...What did you tell me about the year of his death? What I want to ask isn't about that. If they were now this strong, why would they still have to fight that long? Are those mythical creatures able to increase strength as well?'


["Of course. They have their own methods for doing so. That's why you have to finish them off before they get stronger."]


'Of course.'


......................


Alvin has finished off all the giant snakes that escaped from the siege of the hunters City C.


Still with the ghost skill, he finally entered the area of the hunter's siege and began to finish off the snakes all of which had strength equivalent to that of an SS-ranked hunter.


Coincidentally, he is now near a female hunter who is also very famous in Southeast Asia, Gina Stewart, the head of the Nine Bears guild, new guild containing the strongest hunters in Southeast Asia.


'He's an SSS-ranked healer, right? Would a normal healer also be able to fight as good as him if he had already reached the SSS rank?'


["He shouldn't have been able to fight this big."]


'Then, what is this? Look, he's very agile in using a sword. Her sword technique was even better than that hair dryer.'


Mina was silent for a moment. He noticed the sword technique of the blonde young lady and was astonished. The technique is very good. Not just better than The Destroyer. His sword technique was even slightly better than the technique Alvin had learned.


Each woman moves a sword, she can strike at the target. Unfortunately the type of Mana energy that the woman had was not to destroy. Otherwise, he would have been able to instantly kill those SS-ranked monsters in just one strike.


["I don't know. Honestly, it's a little confusing."]


Alvin scrunched his forehead. This was the second time the all-knowing Mina sounded like confusion.


To save time, Alvin quickened his footsteps. He darted here and there, killing the giant snakes quickly until finally all the giant snakes died.


After completing his work, Alvin noticed the surrounding situation until finally opening the map of the gate to find the location of the Dungeon gate that had issued the monsters. Surprisingly, he did not find any high ranking gates there.


'The flight does not exist. Did they close it?'


["It looks like they already destroyed the magic pillars before holding those monsters here."]


Alvin watches the bewildered hunters after seeing that all the monsters have been killed without them knowing who did it.


He also heard them mention a name that they thought had secretly killed the monsters.


'Anna's? Who's he?'



'Did the creator of the System miss it?'


There was no reply from Mina and Rimi for a while before Mina finally answered the question with a hint of hesitation.


["There may be other systems sent to this age besides us."]


'I guessed. I think it is...'


Alvin stopped his words when he heard someone talking to the SSS-ranked female healer earlier, who was the team captain and the guild leader.


Alvin looked at the burly man. From his type of Mana energy, he knew that the hunter was an SSS-ranked Tanker.


But that's not what attracted Alvin to him. That hunter's voice, strangely familiar in his ears.


Alvin looked at the hunter's face fixedly, but he knew that this was the first time they had met.


'Who is this guy? Why is it so familiar?'
