What the hell is a Hunter?
Hunting ... Are you here to hunt down the old elf?
That's not right ... Previously, when Lu Yuan asked the old elf why he was looking for him, the old elf seemed to say that he would know later.
Wait ... This damn thing couldn't be coming for him, right?
Lu Yuan's expression became very strange.
That's impossible, right?
He was clearly a weak, pitiful, and helpless battle-king, so why would a battle-emperor mutated beast charge at him?
How could he be so influential?
It's not suitable, right?
While Lu Yuan was thinking, the huge mutated beast roared. It glanced at Lu Yuan and the elf man below, and its whole body was surging with evil green light.
An incomparably terrifying power spread out. In the dog-headed people's base in the distance, the dog-headed people who had already fallen into chaos could feel the incomparably terrifying aura.
The group of dog-headed people who were in despair raised their heads and looked in the direction of the aura. Their eyes were filled with surprise and doubt.
"What's going on?"
"What a powerful and strange aura. Could it be an expert who closed the dimension portal?"
The kobolds were incredibly terrified. With such a powerful aura, it would be a piece of cake for it to destroy them. They could not help but think that the reason they were still alive was because that expert was toying with them.
Why was there such a strong person targeting them? The kobolds had no idea what they had done wrong.
Not only the dog-headed people, but even the human powerhouses in the human camp in the distant region raised their heads and looked in the direction of the aura.
The aura that was far stronger than an ordinary battle emperor aura could be felt by the entire Ice Vein star. Even the human experts who were far away could feel it.
At this moment, the human powerhouses were a little bewildered and had a frightened expression.
....
Just as the mutated beast was about to attack, the old elf chuckled and opened his right hand.
In the next moment, the mutated beast was frozen in the air like a specimen, and the green light around its body also dissipated.
Then, the space where the mutated beast was shattered, and the Beast was torn apart along with the space. It turned into a pool of blood without a sound, and its aura dissipated on the spot.
Lu Yuan was stunned.
A mutated beast that was far more powerful than an ordinary battle-emperor had died just like that?
It died so quickly and peacefully that it was almost impossible to imagine that it was an overlord-tier mutated beast.
This elven elder was probably even stronger than the Heaven Abyss Saint.
Lu Yuan looked at the kind-looking elderly elf in shock.
At this moment, an extremely dense and cool aura fused into Lu Yuan's body and entered the evolution cube.
The evolution cube in Lu Yuan's body flashed with a dark blue light.
Lu Yuan came back to his senses and was a little surprised.
He didn't expect to have such a harvest. The unknown aura this time was second only to the piece of meat that Lu Yuan encountered in the night Valley.
After absorbing the unknown aura, the evolution cube was one step closer to its transformation.
If this continued, it wouldn't be long before the evolution cube began its third transformation.
After the elderly elf casually killed the overlord-level mutated beast, he turned to Lu Yuan and said with a smile,
"Now do you know why I came to find you?"
Lu Yuan,"... I'm still not sure."
The old elf smiled. "This mutated beast is called a crack Hunter. Every time a space crack is repaired, a Hunter will follow the trail and hunt down the expert who repaired the space crack. You repaired the space crack before, so the hunters came."
Lu Yuan was a little shocked, "repairing the space crack will attract such crack hunters? Why?"
Lu Yuan suddenly remembered that he had mentioned a long time ago when he was chatting with his teacher that there were many space rifts in the universe.
Furthermore, there seemed to be more and more spatial rifts.
At that time, he had been a little puzzled as to why so many spatial rifts had suddenly appeared. He did not expect that even repairing the spatial rifts would attract such powerful mutated beasts.
This was completely out of Lu Yuan's expectations.
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's question, the elderly elf smiled.
"Hehe ... How much do you know about mutation?"
Lu Yuan thought for a moment and shook his head. "I don't know much. I only know that mutations appear in the entire universe. And I heard from a friend that the foreign object doesn't seem to be from our universe, and it can't be destroyed."
The elderly elf nodded with a smile. to be more precise, the mutation is the erosion from outside our universe. The space crack is also a crack formed due to the instability of space caused by the erosion of the universe. It is the 'wound' of the universe. The more 'wounds' there are, the weaker the universe will be, and the erosion of the mutation will gradually deepen. By then, the entire universe will be completely mutated. Now that someone was trying to heal the wounds of the universe, it would naturally lead to a counterattack from the mutation. That's why every time the space crack is repaired, there will be hunters coming here."
Hearing this, Lu Yuan's eyes widened slightly and he understood. "So that's how it is. If the space crack is repaired, the space in the universe will gradually stabilize. At that time, it will be more difficult for the mutation to erode the universe?"
"Hehe ... It is indeed so."
The corner of Lu Yuan's mouth twitched. He finally understood why such a powerful overlord-level mutated beast would suddenly appear here.
