Chapter 207 – Thunderfire (1)
The sky was already bright when he returned to the Imperial Hunter base.
Zhou Jing went straight to the workshop and found the staff on duty. He told them about his successful enhancent and asked them to inform the King.
Then, he rushed to the area where the hunters lived and found Keriber, who had just woken up to exercise, to tell him the news.
“You’ve completed the fourth enhancent?”
Keriber put down the stone block in his hand as he looked at Zhou Jing in surprise.
Zhou Jing nodded, “My luck has always been good.”
“You…”
Keriber’s expression was subtle as he hesitated.
He still rembered that Jace had been an Imperial Hunter for less than a year. When he first joined, he had only been strengthened twice.
He had undergone his third and fourth enhancents in a row in less than a year. In the end, he really succeeded and beca the second in line only to the current peak hunters… He seed too rash!
Very few people would continuously enhance themselves in a short ti because the probability of failure also increased. This was especially so as their enhancent level got higher. It was very common for each enhancent to take a few years to prepare.
Back when Keriber had undergone his fourth enhancent, he had trained and prepared for three years before he had the courage to do so.
He did not know what to say to Jace, who did not care about his life at all. He was indeed really lucky to have survived!
......
Keriber could only give a thumbs up with mixed feelings, thinking to himself that this brother of his was really a masochist and pervert.
This ti, he really understood how insane a person could be.
“I used the new blood potion this ti. You know this, right?” Zhou Jing asked.
Keriber composed himself before replying in a serious tone, “I’ve heard from the King. Your success this ti ans a lot to the entire hunter community.”
Ever since the King decided to use the new potion on the Imperial Hunters, the news blockade had gradually been released. Now, it was just that it had not been announced to the outside world and was only spreading on a small scale. So of the higher-ups who had access already knew about the new potions.
Keriber was also a little curious about it, “It’s said that the new potion can give special abilities. Let’s see how effective it is.”
Zhou Jing shook his head and smiled, “If you want to see it, fight personally.”
Keriber was stunned, “You want to spar with
?!
“How about it? Are you interested in moving your rusty old bones?” Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows.
Keriber also got excited, “Yo, young man, you’re getting arrogant. Looks like you need a lesson from an old hunter like .”
He was curious about the effect of the V3 Potion, and at the sa ti, his hands were itching
As the current Fifth Enhancent Hunter at the peak of the Hunter realm, Keriber rarely had the chance to exercise because he could not find an opponent of the sa level.
The other hunters would not spar with him, and with his identity as the Chief Hunter of the Empire, it was not suitable for him to take the initiative to spar with his subordinates.
The only opponent of the sa level in the capital, Irene, was the captain of the royal guards. She was rarely free and was not a suitable opponent to challenge. Therefore, Keriber often felt empty and lonely, hoping soone could satisfy his desire to fight.
Now that it had been a long ti since a rash youth had looked for him to fight, Keriber could be said to have encountered good rain after a long drought. He could only hope that Zhou Jing could withstand a few more strikes and let him enjoy himself.
As if afraid that Zhou Jing would go back on his word, Keriber quickly said, “It’s settled then. We can’t do it here though. Let’s go to the arena to fight!”
“Alright.” Zhou Jing nodded and added, “The King is very concerned about the effect of the new potion. I haven’t had the chance to tell him yet, so I might as well invite him over to watch the battle. He can see it for myself.”
He had already thought about it last night. He would use this reason to let the King watch the battle, show his strength, and brush up on his importance in the King’s eyes. After all, his life objective of the (Empire’s Chief Hunter) was still counting on the King’s word.
“No problem. I’ll inform the King now.” Keriber imdiately set off.
Three hours later, in the arena near the capital.
Not long after King Becky woke up, he received a notification from Keriber. He quickly asked Irene to gather the guards and co to the arena to watch the match.
Bill had also been specially invited over to observe the effects of the new potion. He had been arranged to sit beside the king and was surrounded by teams of guards. The security was quite tight.
In addition, so of the higher-ups of the Imperial Hunters had received the news. Many hunters who had undergone three or four enhancents also ca over curiously to watch. The King expressed his tacit approval.
At this mont, Becky was sitting in the arena’s stands, looking down at Jason and Keriber, facing each other in the distance. He asked curiously with anticipation, “There’s finally a winner of the V3 Potion. I wonder what the enhancent effect will be… Irene, what do you think will happen if they fight?”
“Keriber will definitely win. It mainly depends on how long Jace can last.”
Without thinking, Irene said matter-of-factly.
“No matter what, Keriber has five enhancents. I know his strength very well. Even if the V3 Potion is very effective, the gap brought about by the enhancent level is very difficult to make up for. Moreover, Keriber is an extrely experienced hunter.”
Becky trusted Irene’s judgnt and nodded. “Well, Keriber is the Chief Hunter I personally conferred on, after all. Of course he’s powerful.”
Irene paused for a mont before adding, “Although it’s impossible for Jace to win, we’re observing how the V3 Potion effects Jace’s enhancent. to see what kind of power Jace can unleash… Even if he’s not Keriber’s match, as the first hunter in history to inherit the special abilities of a mutant beast, he has extraordinary significance. He’s worth nurturing.”
