YM778.TV Chapter 209: The God Of Hunting
"Yes, sir." the guard replied.
Before long, Harvey was brought in by the guard.
He wore a flattering smile as he entered the palace, glancing at the people on either side before finally addressing Enzo, who was seated on the central throne. "Mr. Enzo, it\'s been a while."
Enzo smiled and said, "It\'s only been a little over a month. It\'s not that long."
Harvey didn\'t know how to respond to this and could only smile awkwardly.
The others in the palace also observed Harvey, sensing that his strength was quite weak, which piqued their curiosity. Harvey seemed uncomfortable with the atmosphere and, deciding not to waste time on pleasantries, stated directly, "Mr. Enzo, I came here to relay some news."
As Harvey spoke, his gaze swept to the sides.
It was clear that the information was meant for Enzo alone.
Enzo then waved his hand and instructed, "Xavior, Erdos, you may leave."
"Yes, Lord Enzo!" the others responded before exiting the palace.
In moments, only Enzo and Harvey remained in the palace.
Enzo, with a cold demeanor, said, "Harvey, state your purpose."
Harvey dropped his pretense and said candidly, "Mr. Enzo, allow me to reintroduce myself. I am Harvey, the leader of the Deer Hunters Organization. For security reasons, what you see before you is merely a specially crafted body, not my true self."
"Interesting."
Enzo smiled, his eyes narrowing slightly with interest. Previously, he had killed Dark from the demon race, absorbed Dark\'s soul talent, and gained the ability to create avatars, successfully birthing a World Tree avatar.
The World Tree, while impressive, couldn\'t move and required substantial resources to grow.
It was surprising that Harvey had a similar ability.
From his tone, creating avatars didn\'t seem too challenging. Otherwise, he wouldn\'t have revealed it.
This did show Harvey\'s sincerity.
Enzo responded, "I see. Using a weak appearance to disguise your true identity is indeed effective. However, I am more interested in where the real Harvey is, the origins of the Deer Hunters Organization, and your purpose for visiting."
"Allow me to explain in detail." Harvey said with a smile.
He pulled out a beast-skin map from his spatial ring, marked with various regional details. It was a complete world map. On it, the Barren Peninsula and Dark Night Forest were situated on the eastern side of a central continent, near the ocean.
Beyond the Dark Night Forest lay the Elven Homeland, home to rare and mysterious elves. Other neighboring regions included the Dream City, the Bird Forest, and the Flame Jungle.
Enzo took the map, glanced at it, and memorized its details.
Afterward, he tossed the map back to Harvey and asked, "What\'s the point of showing me this map?"
"Mr. Enzo, I believe your focus shouldn\'t be limited to this area." Harvey replied, his eyes intense and his tone growing excited. He spread out the map and pointed to the Barren Peninsula, saying, "To many tribes, the Barren Peninsula seems vast, with abundant resources and room for many people."
"But is that really the case?"
He continued. "The Dark Night Forest is part of an external realm, which is only a fraction of the continent. Beyond the continent, there are other continents and even more distant stars. Your future shouldn\'t be confined to the Dark Night Forest, the external realm, or even this world."
Hearing this, Enzo was even more puzzled.
He asked, "So, are you suggesting that I should expand the territory of Crimson Lake?"
Harvey shook his head, his eyes filled with sorrow. "The Dark Night Forest has just begun to enjoy a rare period of peace. I believe this is an opportunity to foster unity and peace among all forces here to prepare for a potential disaster.
I\'m not referring to the Moon Tide, but to a true catastrophe that could annihilate all races."
Harvey\'s words left Enzo stunned.
He had considered many things, but not this.
Harvey\'s idea of restoring peace in the Dark Night Forest seemed naive. True peace was impossible where there were conflicts of interest.
And only through struggle could one become stronger and gain resources.
Enzo\'s gaze grew colder as he retorted, "What does this have to do with me?"
Harvey appeared anxious and replied, "Mr. Enzo, don\'t you want to find Miss Amy? If you\'re willing, I can help you become the ruler of the Dark Night Forest and gain a prestigious status that would stand on par with the Snow Fox Territory."
"Amy?" Enzo murmured the name, his expression darkening instantly.
He rose from his throne, and a blood-red mist behind him coalesced into a fearsome creature, roaring angrily.
Enzo approached Harvey slowly and asked, "Are you threatening me?"
Harvey shook his head and said, "No, it\'s a warning."
At this moment, he felt compelled to reveal the true origins of the Deer Hunters Organization, explaining, "The Deer Hunters Organization was founded by the God of Hunting. Its purpose was to gather intelligence and convey messages.
However, after the God of Hunting departed, the organization\'s development nearly stalled. It wasn\'t until six months ago that we received a new prophecy. The prophecy stated: \'Endless Fire will burn again, and disaster will return.\'"
"Additionally, the prophecy contained information about you."
"That\'s why we took notice of you."
Enzo\'s expression remained unchanged, but he was deeply shocked inside.
He had encountered the time-shadowed figures of Maude and others at the mysterious grotto on the island at Qaidam Lake and acquired the Endless Fire from the Seven Great Origins Creations. Since he was the only one present at that time, how did Harvey learn of it?
And the God of Hunting...
Enzo asked, "Who is the God of Hunting?"
Harvey replied, "The God of Hunting, whose true name is Maude, was once the priest who controlled the Barren Mountain Tribe. He was an enemy of Beast God Rexfit, but not just any enemy. In some ways, they were also friends."
Enzo pressed further, "How did you learn of the prophecy?"
"Through the Prophecy Indicator, a mechanical artifact used by the God of Hunting to transmit messages. It can record and convey information from its surroundings. Six months ago, the Prophecy Indicator activated by itself and transmitted a message about you.
After receiving this information, we sent people to investigate the Barren Peninsula and gathered more intelligence."
Harvey explained.
To avoid misunderstandings, Harvey added, "The Deer Hunters Organization only investigated; we did not intervene or disclose your information to others."
Enzo was unfazed by this.
He asked again, "So, what is your purpose in coming here?"
Harvey took a deep breath and said, "The inheritance left by Beast God Rexfit is flawed. It leads to an abyss of madness and ultimately self-destruction. Rexfit himself realized this and chose to face death with acceptance."
Enzo responded with a smile, "Even if he became a deity, was it still the wrong path?"
Harvey hesitated, unsure how to answer, as he was not a deity and had not ventured into the most powerful realms of the world.
He could only relay, "When the God of Hunting departed, he commented on Rexfit, saying: \'The wrong path cannot lead to the destination.\'"
Enzo\'s reaction remained subdued.
He believed Harvey\'s words were true and was aware of the issues with Rexfit\'s inheritance, but these concerns did not deter him from pursuing the path to divinity. This was both an attempt and a test.
Most importantly, Enzo had not decided to follow Rexfit\'s path.
The birth of the World Tree represented a powerful supernatural entity that had never existed in this world. It allowed Enzo to pursue a unique supernatural path of his own. Over time, his understanding of his future path had deepened.
He knew that by mastering enough elemental patterns, he could also achieve divinity.
Even though it would take more time.
However, once successful, the power gained would far surpass that of a deity achieved through blood rituals.
None of this was known to others.
In Harvey\'s current understanding, Enzo was already on the brink of madness.
Continuing on his current path might well lead him into an abyss of irreversible disaster.
At that point, before the disaster even arrived, the so-called savior from the prophecy, Enzo, might well become the world-destroying demon king, annihilating the entire world prematurely.
This was not just alarmist rhetoric. It was a real possibility.
The destructive power of the supernatural was far greater than anticipated.
The Deer Hunters Organization, loyal to the God of Hunting, took the prophecy concerning Enzo very seriously. That\'s why Harvey had come personally to understand Enzo better. However, upon learning that Enzo had received Rexfit\'s inheritance, Harvey had to return to issue another warning.
But it seemed to have had little effect.
Harvey sighed and prepared to leave when he heard Enzo ask, "How much do you know about the Starry Sky?"
