Chapter 102: Suspicion And Estrangement (2)

Hearing this, the hunters felt that it made sense. They no longer hesitated and rushed to the second floor to stop Zhou Jing.

The other hunters could only follow.

One of the hunters rushed to Zhou Jing’s side and immediately pressed down on his shoulder.

“Stop it first. What’s going on?”

Zhou Jing stopped and turned to look at him.

The hunter’s heart skipped a beat. For some reason, he subconsciously let go.

Zhou Jing ignored him. His gaze passed through the dozens of trembling guards, and his vision became increasingly blurry as he looked at the nervous Lutt behind them.

His body no longer had the strength to move forward.

This would be the last strike…

He raised the saber with difficulty and threw it out as if he had exhausted all his strength.

Swish…

The blade spun and flew over the crowd.

However, halfway through, it lost all strength and fell from the sky.

There was a clink.

The long blade covered in blood fell in front of Lutt.

Plop!

Lutt slumped to the ground, staring in horror at the blade on the floor. He was shaking with fear.

At the same time, Zhou Jing’s body fell to the ground with a bang.

The hunters were startled.

Weiss hurriedly squatted down and supported Zhou Jing. He checked his breathing before saying in a pained tone, “He’s dead.”

Hearing this, the expressions of the hunters changed.

Many of them felt sad and angry about the death of a fellow hunter, but they also couldn’t stop feeling puzzled.

“He… he’s dead?”

Lutt heard it in the distance, and his suspended heart suddenly relaxed.

The extreme fluctuation in his mood almost caused him to collapse.

His underwear was totally damp, and he also had a body full of cold sweat.

Lutt felt his heart palpitating.

Fortunately for him, the buzz-cut man and Zhou Jing had fought to the point where both sides suffered heavy losses and basically died together. If this person still had any combat strength left, he didn’t seem like he would stop until Lutt was dead.

Seeing that Jason was dead, Lutt’s regret immediately faded, turning into relief and a lingering fear.

It seemed that his fate was not over yet. Luck was still on his side…

He had escaped death!

At that moment, Weber suddenly strode closer. He pushed past all the guards and stood in front of Lutt.

“What exactly happened?”

Weber’s tone was solemn.

The many hunters followed silently, passing through the guards who did not dare to move and surrounded Lutt.

Lutt’s breath caught, and he subconsciously swallowed.

Because of Zhou Jing, these hunters, who he usually trusted, suddenly made him feel a sense of danger and a strong sense of oppression.

He suddenly realized that the trouble was far from over.

If he closed the door and captured Zhou Jing, it would be much easier to settle this matter quietly. However, now that this fight and even death had been witnessed by so many hunters, he was in a good scenario.

However, with Jason’s death, no one knew that Maggi had accepted his orders to intercept him. It seemed that there was still a chance to wash his hands off this matter…

Lutt quickly suppressed his nervousness and forced himself to his feet, feigning confusion.

“I’m not sure either. Jason suddenly came to my door with the heads of several of my Mutant Blood Warrior Guards. He said that he wanted me to give an explanation, but I didn’t know what had happened at all. I saw that he had killed my guards, so I planned to capture him first. I didn’t expect things to develop like this…”

“Maggi?” Weber frowned.

“I’m not sure. It seems like Maggi and Jason are having some kind of conflict. Maybe he’s hiding something from me and doing something privately. That’s why Jason came to me… I’ll investigate.”

Lutt forced himself to remain calm. His words were half true and half false. He only wanted to stabilize the many hunters.

Even if he wanted to slander Zhou Jing, he did not dare to do it at this point.

Everyone was silent, skeptical of his explanation.

In the past, their cooperation with the feudal lord was quite pleasant. After all, everyone had a foundation of trust in each other.

However, Zhou Jing’s determination to kill the lord today had shaken everyone’s thoughts.

Although they did not know what had happened, Zhou Jing was one of them. There must be a reason for this.?The lord must have done something to have caused his actions.

Furthermore, putting aside all the reasons, Jason had died at the hands of the lord’s men… Technically the lord had killed a Mutant Beast Hunter. No one could pretend that nothing had happened.

Jason was the most talented among them. Everyone felt that he had a bright future ahead of him and had a chance to become a legendary Mutant Beast Hunter.

However, no one expected such a genius to die just like that. He did not die on the battlefield against the mutated beasts but in the lord’s castle.

What a pity!

Lutt grew more nervous as he watched the silent hunters. He dared not show any signs of guilt on his face.

After a long time, Weber spoke slowly.

“We’re waiting for you to give us an explanation for this. If you can’t satisfy us…”

There was no need to say the rest. The meaning was obvious.

Lutt did not dare to say anything and could only agree obediently. He did not dare to act like a lord like before.

With that, Weber turned away and walked back to Jason. He picked up Jason’s body by the waist.

The hunters followed and clustered around.

Seeing this, Lutt could not help but ask.

“W-where are you taking him?”

“None of your business.”

Weiss threw down a cold sentence.

It was impossible for them to sit by and watch as the corpse of a fellow hunter was left there.

They only had one thought now, which was to bring Jason back to Frostwood Village.

The hunters took Jason’s corpse and left.

Lutt opened his mouth, but no words of dissuasion came out.

He guessed that everyone would probably bring this corpse to Frostwood Village.

However, Barong was also someone who was considered to know of this matter. If the hunters met up with him and combined the information, they would learn about the corruption of the potion and become even more suspicious of Jason’s encounter. They would more or less feel that it was related to this and then suspect him.

But Lutt had no way to stop them.

Almost all the power he could use had been cut down by Zhou Jing alone. He could not do anything to Barong now.

His own tribesmen were too far away and could not be mobilized so quickly… Besides, he did not dare to go against so many hunters.

If Barong died again, these hunters would probably understand the situation quickly and definitely settle the score with him… Thus, Lutt no longer dared to act rashly.

He had to hide Goatee or silence him. He could not let Barong see this person in the city…

Lutt looked uncertain. He could only try to salvage the situation at this point.

He had always tried his best to build a good relationship with most of the hunters, but now that Zhou Jing had brought about an unforeseen event, the hunters had developed an estrangement towards him. All his previous efforts had almost been in vain, and he had even left behind many hidden dangers.

Although the subsequent situation was terrible, he still heaved a sigh of relief.

“In any case, I’m not the one who’s dead. At least I’m still alive.”

Lutt clutched his chest, his heart pounding, filled with relief that he had survived.

On the other side, many town residents were also attracted by the noise. Ignoring the curfew, they all came to the lord’s residence and looked at the mess in surprise.

Many residents whispered to each other, creating a commotion.

In the crowd, an inconspicuous man saw the corpse of Buzz-Cut on the ground. His pupils constricted, and he immediately slipped out of the crowd and left quietly.

...

After Jason·Wood died, Zhou Jing’s consciousness returned.

He passed through the tunnel of light and quickly returned to the preparation space.

As soon as he returned, he received a waterfall of information on his interface.
