Astral Apostle

Chapter 82: Stormy Waves and Plans (2)

Weiss waved his hand nonchalantly before turning around and riding on the female Violent Tooth Dragon… To be precise, it was the Violent Tooth Dragon whose sex had been forcibly changed to become female.

“Since I’m done, I’ll leave directly.”

“Aren’t you going back to the village to rest?” Griff spoke out.

“I’m not going. The corpses of these two dragons aren’t fresh, so I have to bring them back to White Plains Town quickly. Otherwise, the price will drop again…” As Weiss spoke, he smacked his lips. “Besides, there’s nothing to play with in your village. I miss the soft chests of the hotel maids.”

“Alright, alright. Then get lost,” Barong scolded jokingly.

“Hmph, I can’t be bothered with you. When the time comes, remember to come to the tavern to split the money with me… Yo, Guards, bring those two Violent Tooth Dragons back to the city with me. When we get back, I’ll treat you to a round of drinks at the tavern.”

Weiss curled his lips and left on his “lady-fied” Violent Tooth Dragon. The nine White Plains soldiers hurriedly pulled the corpses of the two Violent Tooth Dragons and left together.

Only Zhou Jing, Barong, Griff, and the other hunters from Frostwood Village were left.

The few of them crossed the small bridge and returned to Frostwood Village. The news of the destruction of the Subterraneans’ lair quickly spread throughout the village.

The villagers were very excited. They put down the farm work at hand and rushed over. They surrounded the hunter team and curiously asked for details. When they heard that the Subterraneans were no longer a threat, they were overjoyed.

This Subterraneans’ lair had always been a hidden danger to Frostwood Village, but it was a difficult threat to resolve. They had petitioned the lord many times but to no avail. Originally, the villagers of Frostwood Village felt that they had to live with the Subterraneans’ lair for a long time, but now that this danger had been resolved once and for all, the villagers were extremely happy and kept praising the hunters.

“Aiya, thanks to Captain Barong, this problem is resolved.”

“Fortunately, our village is being guarded by you!”

Many villagers waggled their tongues excitedly.

At this moment, Barong raised his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet. Then, he put his arm around Zhou Jing’s shoulder and loudly spoke out.

“Everyone, if it weren’t for Jason, we wouldn’t have dealt with the Subterraneans so quickly. His contribution was just as great.”

Barong didn’t want to take credit, and this truly came from his heart.

Although he had guided Zhou Jing, the reason behind his quick improvement was because of Zhou Jing’s own ability. In just half a year, he had surpassed Barong in combat power. That was why he could take revenge on the Subterraneans in such a short period of time.

Otherwise, this problem would trouble them for a long time.

When the villagers heard this, they nodded and looked at Zhou Jing, praising him enthusiastically.

Jason·Wood had been in Frostwood Village for half a year now, and the villagers were familiar with him. The people here were simple and honest, and they had long treated him as one of their own.

“There’s no need for that. I was just taking revenge for my brother.” Zhou Jing used this excuse again.

At this moment, Reiner squeezed out of the crowd and looked around. “Where’s Uncle Weiss?”

“He went back to the city,” a hunter said.

“Ah… he didn’t even say goodbye to me.” Reiner was disappointed.

“Brat, are you so focused on your Uncle Weiss that you don’t even care about your father?” Barong snapped.

“I can already see that Father is fine.” Reiner scratched his head.

“He’s still a kid, don’t mind him.” Griff didn’t mind and picked up Reiner with a smile.

Reiner turned to look at Zhou Jing and suddenly asked curiously, “Uncle Jason, why haven’t I seen Uncle Ross recently? Did he get lost?”

Zhou Jing: “…”

Damn, I’ve been too engrossed thinking about the national emblem for the past two days. I knew I had forgotten something!

I forgot to call Ross back on the way!

The corner of Zhou Jing’s eyes twitched slightly. He quickly checked his location and realized that Ross had not stayed in the Black-Clothed Forest but had returned to the vicinity of Frostwood Village.

… Fortunately, this follower didn’t seem to be that stupid. He didn’t wait for anyone and still knew how to return.

“He might be playing around. I’ll go find him.”

Zhou Jing mumbled and took the opportunity to escape from the crowd.

No one stopped him.

Griff watched Zhou Jing leave in a hurry and shook his head with a smile. Suddenly, he thought of something and took out the Hein emblem from his pocket and handed it to Reiner.

“By the way, I brought you a gift.”

“Wow, it’s beautiful.”

Reiner’s gaze was immediately attracted by the beauty of the emblem.

...

On the other side.

Zhou Jing followed his internal GPS for a while and found Ross by a small river some distance away from Frostwood Village. This was the place where he had first summoned Ross.

He saw Ross squatting by the riverbank. He did not know how long he had been in this position. A layer of dust had accumulated on his head and shoulders.

Realizing that someone was approaching, he silently turned his head and hugged his knees as he looked up at Zhou Jing.

Ross: (o _ O)

Zhou Jing did not know if it was an illusion, but he seemed to see a hint of grievance in their eyes.

Zhou Jing coughed to hide his embarrassment. He touched Ross’s head and read the attendant’s experience log.

Ross’s encounters in the past two days were quickly seen through. At first, he followed Zhou Jing’s instructions and waited at the initial location of the Subterraneans as a scout.

However, when the group finished off the Subterraneans and returned, Zhou Jing was so shocked to discover the Hein emblem that he forgot to call him along.

Ross obediently squatted there for another day and night.

It was not until Zhou Jing’s location was far away that Ross took action and ran out of the Black-Clothed Forest.

Because the expedition team brought their spoils of war and prey, he was much faster, and he actually returned to the vicinity of Frostwood Village earlier.

Therefore, Ross silently returned to his “birthplace” and waited patiently for Zhou Jing to remember him.
