Chapter 172: Long-Lost Vacation
“I knew that sooner or later, I would definitely be able to find him. After almost a month, I still managed to find his tracks!”
Ah Tonghuo said viciously, “I was wondering why there wasn’t a similar presence on the Violent Crocodile Beach. It turns out that he came to kill the Bronze Bulls!”
“Don’t worry, Captain Ah Tonghuo. We will definitely be able to find him!”
The Golden Hound began to search around for Lugh. Soon, they found the corpse of the basic Bronze Bull!
“Very good. Since he likes to kill Bronze Bulls, we’ll just wait for him here. When the time comes, I’ll tear him into pieces!”
Lugh returned to the military camp and went through the leave procedures. He immediately took a three-day leave!
Perhaps it was a habit from his past life that he didn’t take all three days of leave. Lugh felt sorry for himself.
After Shan Yue and the others greeted him, he carried the Bronze Bull leg and took the military car to the subway station. Then he took the earthworm subway back to Seven Star City!
When he got home, it was almost evening!
He knocked on the door, and it was Xiaoxiao who opened it!
Xu Xiaoxiao gave Lugh a bear hug directly.
Xu Xiaoxiao had already completely treated Lugh as family!
However, after entering the door, Lugh met a guest that he had never expected!
“Katya?”
Katya was sitting on the sofa, and there were three cups of tea and coffee on the coffee table!
“Lugh, are you back on vacation today?”
“Yes, Aunty, I’m back for my vacation!”
Lugh looked at Xu Dahai’s mother, Hestia.
The life in the city these few days had made Hestia look much better.
Hestia stood up with a smile and said, “How was the army? Were you injured?”
“No, how could I be injured? Our work over there is still relatively easy!”
“Aunt Hestia, I still have things to do at home. I’ll go back First!”
“Aren’t you staying for dinner?”
“No, Lugh just came back today. You guys should get together properly!”
Katya waved at Lugh, smiled sweetly, and left gracefully!
“Aunty, what is Katya doing?”
Hestia smiled and said, “Ever since we moved here, Katya has helped our family a lot!”
Xu Xiaoxiao said from the side, “Sister Katya is very good. She brought us a lot of delicious food!”
This girl was obviously bribed by Katya!
“Oh?”
“I heard from Katya that she is your cla.s.smate?”
“Yes, she is indeed my cla.s.smate!”
It was not wrong to say so.
However, when Lugh saw the smiling face of Hestia, he added, “However, she is my cla.s.smate in Grade 3, three years older than me!”
Who knew that Hestia would say with a smile, “She is only three years older. Besides, it is not bad to be three years younger than a girl!”
How was it not bad?
Lugh shook his head helplessly and decided to tell the truth to Hestia, “Aunt, Katya is also the daughter of the Guardian of Seven Star City!”
Hestia said in surprise, “What?”
In Hestia’s eyes, the daughter of the Guardian of Seven Star City was definitely of high status!
“It can’t be!” Xu Xiaoxiao said in surprise, “Sister Katya’s father is actually the Guardian? How powerful!”
“He is indeed very powerful!” Lugh nodded. “But don’t be too concerned about her status. Just treat her as a friend!”
Lugh knew that Hestia and Xu Xiaoxiao had just arrived in the inner city. If they did not know anyone, it would inevitably be a little lonely!
Therefore, it was a good thing to be able to get to know Katya and the others.
He was afraid that after revealing Katya’s ident.i.ty, Hestia and Xu Xiaoxiao would not dare to get to know Katya. After all, the people of this world were still very respectful towards the n.o.bles, especially the Guardian of Seven Star City.
However, in Lugh’s eyes, everyone was the same.
They would not be treated differently just because the other party was a n.o.ble or a commoner.
As for Lord Guardian Morocco, he was only stronger than him at the moment. As long as he was given some time, Lugh believed that he would definitely be able to become a Beast Master and Rune Master that was stronger than Morocco!
Lugh took three days off at home. Every day, he would happily brew a pot of tea and bask in the sun in the garden.
He felt that he was living the retirement life of an old man.
However, Lugh still enjoyed this leisurely life after experiencing a long battle.
It was like a spring. After being in the process of squeezing for a long time, it would always think of the moment when it rebounded, not to mention a human.
Katya had also come to look for him. The two of them had a question-and-answer session and were chatting casually.
Katya was very curious about Lugh’s position in the military camp. Lugh had also told her about hunting Fierce Beasts.
How should he put it?
Actually, Lugh still had a good impression of Katya.
Katya’s looks were absolutely perfect. She was very beautiful!
Moreover, her personality was also quite good. She was lively, cheerful, and understanding.
Warm and generous, not the kind of girl who hid everything in her heart.
With such a girl, Lugh felt relaxed and happy.
Lugh didn’t know that while he was staying in the safe zone of the inner city, enjoying the leisurely life accompanied by beautiful women, another group of people was squatting in the living area of the Bronze Bulls, bitterly waiting for Lugh’s arrival.
One day had pa.s.sed.
Two days had pa.s.sed.
The people of the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group were suspicious of life!
Especially Ah Tonghuo, who said with a gloomy face, “Masha, how’s the investigation going?”
The Beast Master who owned a Golden Hound, named Masha, answered in fear, “There are more than ten Beast Masters in the vicinity, but none of them is the person we are looking for!”
Ah Tonghuo gritted his teeth and said, “It has been two days, and we haven’t seen a single person!”
“Yes, it has been two days!” Masha said helplessly, “Captain, do you think that b.a.s.t.a.r.d will change places to hunt again?”
It was really possible!
After all, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d had a criminal record!
“Then let’s wait one more day and see!”
Ah Tonghuo had a belly full of anger and was unable to vent it.
He had already waited for two days. If there was still no sign of him on the third day, he would definitely take it out on this Masha Beast Master!
On the afternoon of the third day, Lugh slowly took the autumn clothes subway and left Seven Star City, returning to the military camp!
And at this time, Ah Tonghuo no longer had any patience!
He was the Vice-Captain of the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group. He couldn’t let the injured people stay here with him every day because of his personal grudges. At this rate, he could only drink the wind from the northwest.
The mercenaries could gather together not for brotherhood, but purely for profit, to hunt and obtain crystal cores and gold coins in the future!
The Beast Master named Masha appeared with the Golden Hound. His face was very ugly, and his forehead was full of sweat. He stammered, “Captain… Captain, there is no smell of that b.a.s.t.a.r.d anywhere!”
“Are you sure you are serious about searching?”
“Captain, I am already very serious. I have let the Golden Hound smell all the Bronze Bull corpses!” Masha pointed at the Beast Master who was protecting him from behind and said, “They have been following me all this time. They can prove it for me.”.
“En!”
Ah Tonghuo nodded and frowned.
He knew that these people under him would definitely not deceive him on this matter!
“Captain, should we continue to wait?”
A Beast Master asked with some depression, “It has already been three days. I reckon that b.a.s.t.a.r.d will not appear. He might have already changed places!”
The other Beast Masters also said, “That’s right, Captain. We haven’t dared to do anything for the past three days. If this continues, we can only drink the wind from the northwest!”
“The other party is very careful. They might have already left this area!”
…
Ah Tonghuo began to hesitate because what his subordinate said was very reasonable.
If the other party really left this place, they couldn’t wait here forever!
Moreover, because of personal grudges, it affected the team’s mission. Even the Captain would blame him.
A private mercenary group wasn’t an army.
The army absolutely obeyed the orders of the higher-ups.
And mercenary groups only gathered together for the sake of benefits.
At the crucial moment, the members of these small teams might not necessarily listen to him, the leader of the small mercenary group.
The other members of the Berserk Bear Mercenary Group saw that Ah Tonghuo was still hesitating, thus, they suggested, “Captain, how about this? Let Masha stay behind. No matter what, he is a Silver-Grade Beast Master. In this area, as long as he doesn’t run around, his safety is not a problem!”
“Let him wait here for a few days. If that person appears, let him remember the other party’s facial features and then inform us. This way, nothing will be delayed!”
