Chapter 941: Hunter's Heartache and Peyton's Disappointment
"Excuse me, are you Ms. Aurora?"
In a cozy coffee shop, the hunter sat on a chair somewhat awkwardly, facing a woman who looked quite gentle.
She was wearing a long floral dress, her hair was loose on her shoulders, and she had a kind but distant smile on her face.
The hunter had a long-lost feeling of heartbeat , as if a little butcher star was beating wildly in his chest.
"Yes, you should be Mr. Zeth..." Aurora nodded. She was not an interstellar human, but her appearance was very similar to that of an interstellar human.
"Yes..." The hunter nodded, and the two fell into a strange silence.
"How about ordering something to drink first?" Aurora asked tentatively.
"Yes, order first, order first." The hunter suddenly realized and nodded hurriedly.
At the same time, he secretly warned himself that he had experienced all kinds of storms and how could he lose his composure because of a woman? It would be too embarrassing if the news got out.
"Excuse me, what is your relationship with Miss Keller?" Aurora asked casually.
"I..." The hunter was about to answer, but paused. According to Keller, this woman was just someone she rescued by chance when she was wandering in the universe.
The relationship is not too close.
If he told the true relationship between him and Keller, there would probably be no suspense in this blind date.
But...is this really what I want?
The hunter has a knot in his heart, which can be traced back to the time when Li Yu was still hanging out in Guixing , when Li Yu had just become famous.
As Li Yu's "number one thug", he naturally received a lot of attention.
So an accidental encounter made him think he had found love.
Until he found out that the other party was actually a spy planted by the enemy, and could even change his gender at will.
Since then, he has had a psychological trauma.
He actually had no love experience before, and he didn't have so many thoughts when he was serving in the Star Empire.
Later, he was exiled and only thought about surviving. He was also very self-disciplined and had no time to enjoy himself.
Although he often talks big, it is just talk.
After suffering from the psychological trauma, he was unwilling to interact with the opposite sex for a long time.
Although he is already an old man, he hopes that the other party loves him as a person rather than any other additional identity.
After a pause, he said shyly, "I was also rescued by Miss Keller by chance."
"Oh~" Aurora nodded. Her attitude didn't seem to change, except that her smile became more polite.
At this moment, two drinks came up. She picked them up elegantly, took a sip, and continued to ask, "You seem to be an interstellar human. Which civilization are you from?"
The hunter thought for a moment and said, "Strictly speaking, it should be from the Star Empire."
"The Starry Empire?" Aurora's eyes flickered. As a newly emerging powerful civilization, the Starry Empire was also a hot topic in the Great Cosmic Alliance.
"I heard that there is a drink called 'Curtis' in the Star Empire. I wonder what it tastes like?" she said casually.
"Curtis?" The hunter was a little confused: "I haven't heard of him. I'll ask around when I get back."
Hearing this answer, Aurora's slightly polite expression couldn't help but restrain.
Curtis is a new stimulant drink that is quite expensive. More importantly, only first-class citizens and above in the Star Empire are eligible to buy it.
And this guy has never even heard of it.
After being asked so many questions, the hunter finally realized that he hadn't asked anything yet. He was about to open his mouth and say, "Excuse me..."
Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted. Aurora looked apologetic and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot to turn off the energy core when I went out. I have to go back and turn it off."
"Forgot to turn off the energy core?" The hunter was a little confused, and then asked: "Do you want to exchange contact information?"
"No thanks, let's talk about it some other time." Aurora declined with a smile.
The hunter then realized that he was being rejected.
So fast?
He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just sat down dejectedly.
Aurora shook her head secretly. She thought that the person Miss Keller was introducing must be a powerful person, but the result was such a waste of time.
Ding-a-ling!
The door of the shop opened, and the pleasant ringing of the bell made Aurora feel much better. However, before she took a few steps, a whooshing sound suddenly came from the sky.
She looked in confusion, only to see a black shadow falling straight down.
boom!
It was a piece of metal debris that was stuck in the ground, spider-web-like cracks spreading out, and the gust of air blew in her face, causing her skirt to fly.
This was just the beginning, and then a life form fell down, which was five meters tall , with ferocious muscles and heavy exoskeleton armor.
"The Ite tribe!"
Someone nearby exclaimed, this is a fighting race that is also quite famous within the Great Cosmic Alliance, and is mainly employed by major civilizations.
It was obvious that they were involved in an inexplicable battle.
The life forms around her fled in all directions. Aurora's pupils trembled. She stood there, hardly daring to move.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A large number of soldiers wearing black combat armor fell down. They were in an orderly manner and seemed to be "hunting" this life form.
"roar"
The It creature roared, and sharp bone spurs extended from the exoskeleton armor on its arms. Its tail was like a giant python, with a round hammer covered with sharp spikes at the end. It could hammer cracks into the ground with a random swing.
This seed was born entirely for fighting, and there is not a single unnecessary organ in its body.
Crackling!
A large electromagnetic net dropped from the sky, and the locking structures on the four corners penetrated deep into the ground, constantly digging and shrinking.
The electromagnetic agitation left charred marks on the opponent's exoskeleton body.
The other party fought desperately, and the sound was like the roar of a wild beast, but after being surrounded, he could only fall to the ground powerlessly.
"Why are they here?" A murmuring voice came from the side. Aurora woke up suddenly, still frightened, and looked at Zeth who had just walked out.
There didn't seem to be any fear on the other person's face, as if he was accustomed to everything in front of him.
"Don't be afraid, you will be fine." The hunter comforted bitterly.
Before Aurora could say anything, she suddenly felt the ground shaking. She turned her head and found that the fully armored soldiers were already in front of her.
"Sir Hunter, why are you here?" With his combat helmet open, a soldier was obviously confused.
"I was just about to ask you, why are Anthony's people here?" the hunter pouted.
"Lord Longzun's propaganda plan has encountered some obstacles, and we are hunting down the culprit behind it." He replied, with obvious respect for the hunter.
Aurora watched from the side, her expression gradually changing.
This group of soldiers clearly had a very different attitude towards Zeth.
And who did they mention in their conversation just now, Long Zun?
Even Aurora had heard of the name of this superstar.
Is Zeth related to the other party?
"Okay, just take me away with you." The hunter nodded.
"Wait...wait..." Aurora suddenly spoke, her cheeks slightly red, and said: "We may not know each other well enough, do you want to exchange contact information?"
The hunter was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and sighed, "Forget it, I know you saw that I am different, so you changed your mind."
"But I don't want this kind of love. I want pure, clean love."
This answer stunned Aurora. Looking at the hunter going away, she knew she had missed a great opportunity.
But at the same time I feel a little confused, pure love?
Are there still people like this these days?
Are you sick?
…
" Look at the person you introduced to me. He ignored me before I revealed my identity. After he knew that I had an extraordinary background, he suddenly changed his attitude."
Hunter looked unhappy, standing in front of the bed and looking at Keller.
"Uncle..." Keller was also speechless. She looked at the smart screen. There were some words on it. It seemed that someone had sent her a message.
"You're so smart to pretend to be an ordinary person on a blind date. Aurora is a nice person."
"Based on the information you revealed before, you are just an ordinary interstellar human with greasy hair and dirty face. Do you want her to fall in love with you at first sight?"
" She's not a good person at all. After she knew I was a special person, she immediately changed her attitude. I had some feelings for her before, but now I have none of them." The hunter groaned, "It's a good thing I helped you hide it from Tu Ying."
Keller didn't know what to say anymore, so he turned around and said, "Come on, you guys are already this old, but you still have the same idea as the innocent boy. Why don't you just state your identity and go straight in?"
"There is no such thing as pure love these days."
“No…” Tu Ying, who was tightly entangled, shook her head and said, “Xia and I are just pure love. At the beginning, Xia didn’t know my identity.”
"..." Keller was completely speechless. Tu Ying's strength, which far exceeded that of trolls of the same age, was enough to prove his extraordinaryness.
"Look..." The hunter seemed to have found a confidant, and said, "I just want to find someone who loves me as a person, not my identity."
"There's something wrong with what you said..." Peyton walked in pushing various instruments and equipment, and said indifferently: "The composition of a life form in the universe society is originally composed of internal and external."
"Your identity is, strictly speaking, as inseparable from you as your organs."
"The physiological and social significance together make a living being complete."
"What kind of nonsense is this?" The hunter retorted, "Aren't you studying the expanded Yuxu Palace? How come you have time to analyze me?"
"This is a theory of interstellar sociology. According to your theory, what you say, think, and look are all affected by your identity." Peyton said as he recorded the data on Keller and Tu Ying:
"If you want others to see the pure you, turning into a vegetable is the right thing to do."
Uh... it sounds reasonable. It is precisely because of his identity that he can remain calm in the face of any situation.
In a sense...
Fuck! The hunter was stunned and almost fooled by this guy. He said unhappily, "You should first figure out how to see the chief researcher of the alien camp through the mirror."
"Isn't it just me?" Payton said in a flat tone.
"Huh? When did you know that?" Now the hunter was a little suspicious.
"Did he tell you the truth?"
"The truth is already there, but I just never thought about it." With his back to the hunter, Payton's eyes contained some complicated emotions.
He originally thought that he was just a minor character, and pursuing the mysterious camp in another dimension had always been his goal.
In the end, I found out that I was chasing myself.
"Then aren't you curious about how he came up with this outrageous lie?" the hunter asked again.
"I told you, I've long since eliminated my curiosity about him and anything related to him." Payton shook his head.
"What are you talking about, what is truth and what is not truth?" Keller asked curiously.
"Nothing, kid, don't ask nonsense questions." The hunter said perfunctorily, feeling quite bored. He was still hoping to see Peyton's shocked expression when he learned the truth one day.
"Innocent boy..." Keller sneered.
The hunter glared at her fiercely before leaving.
