Chapter 928 Viewing the Ceremony

Following Horace, Kieran and Lilith walked side by side into the core of the Temple of the Hunter: a hill where the statue of the Hunter was enshrined.

The hills are neither big nor high, but they have dense vegetation.

But the most attractive thing is the hunting dogs that populate the surrounding area.

To be honest, Kieran had never seen so many dogs.

Black, white, yellow, flower.

Big ones, small ones.

Long hair, short hair.

At a glance, the entire hill seemed to be surrounded by groups of hounds of different colors and breeds.

Fortunately, these hounds are well-trained and highly intelligent. They will not make any dangerous moves without receiving orders from their masters. They just stare at Kieran and Lilith.

Especially the hybrid frost wolf cub in Kieran's arms aroused the keen interest of the hounds.

The frost wolf cubs were not to be outdone.

Even though he was alone and alone, his ears were perked up and his white teeth were showing.

"What a great animal companion!"

"Of course, Lilith, you made a good choice - a cat from Angelina, very suitable for a lady."

Horace, who was leading the way, said with a smile, raising his hand to drive away the hounds.

"Thanks."

"I originally planned to raise a hound, but High Priest Fanny suggested that I raise a cat. Ms. Nell Tassel likes women who love cats."

Lilith held the long-haired, small white, black and yellow cat in her arms and teased the cat's chin while saying.

"It's well known!"

Horace smiled and nodded.

It’s no secret that the God of Love loves cats.

Therefore, in the city of Navia, young ladies are willing to keep a cat, hoping that the God of Love will bless the beauty of their love.

The three of them continued forward.

Soon I saw the person standing under the hunter statue.

Kirk, the high priest of the Hunter Temple, who is tall, strong and wearing leather armor, looks like a blacksmith, more than a cleric. In his hand is a skinning dagger, skinning a wild boar.

"High Priest Ryan, Priest Lilith, welcome!"

"Just now I was still guessing who the special guest of this 'Partner Day' would be."

Kirk quickly walked to the stream nearby and began to wash his hands and face. After getting rid of all the blood on his body, the high priest came back and greeted him formally.

"It's an honor to meet High Priest Llane."

The other party performed a priestly ceremony.

"It's an honor as well."

Kieran returned the knight's salute.

Lilith on the side took a step back before returning the priestly salute.

This is the gap caused by identity.

Even though she is the successor of the next high priest of the Temple of Love, she still has to abide by the rules before becoming the real high priest.

So did Horace.

After the formulaic pleasantries, the focus of the conversation was reached, making pets become animal companions.

"High Priest Ryan, Lilith, please bring your chosen animal companion here."

"No, no, you don't need to come together. You are not followers of hunters. I cannot accept the blessings of hunters. We don't want to go to war with the Temple of Thorns and the Temple of Love! You must know that Ms. Vanessa and Nell If Ms. Liusu is angry, it will be very scary!"

The high priest of the Hunter Temple said jokingly.

The subsequent process went smoothly. When the hybrid frost wolf pup and the Angrena cat pup were placed in front of the hunter's statue, the ceremony of becoming animal companions began.

A beam of light falls on two different species.

After about two seconds, the light dissipated.

Qin Ran keenly discovered that the hybrid frost wolf cub was different, its aura became slightly stronger, but more importantly, its eyes became human-like.

Then, under Kieran's gaze, the hybrid frost wolf cub ran straight back, spinning around at his feet, gently biting Kieran's pants from time to time.

When Kieran bent down and reached out, the hybrid frost wolf cub couldn't wait to rush into Kieran's hands, allowing Kieran to pick it up more smoothly.

At the same time, the information about the frost wolf cubs clearly appeared in front of Kieran's eyes for the first time.

[Name: Frost Wolf (Hybrid)]

[Type: Warcraft]

[Level: medium-low]

[Attack power: Weak]

[Defense: Weak]

[Attributes: 1, Bite; 2 Frost Breath]

[Special Effect: Wisdom]

[Requirement: recognized person]

[Note: This is a blessed newborn frost wolf pup. It is far stronger and smarter than ordinary frost wolf pups, but you still need to feed it carefully to become your reliable assistant]

…

[Bite: When attacking the enemy with claws and teeth, the judgment strength +1]

[Frost Breath: Spouts out a weak level of frost breath, attacking a single enemy within a range of 2 meters, once/day]

…

[Wisdom: Improve a certain amount of intelligence. 】

…

"good."

Kieran commented.

This evaluation is not only an evaluation of the hunter's blessing, but also an evaluation of the frost wolf pups themselves.

A cub in its newborn stage has a low-to-medium rating, coupled with good intelligence. If properly cultivated, it can naturally become a good helper when it reaches its prime and maturity.

However, Kieran would not thank Angsike for this.

Although Kieran has not been able to guess the other party's true purpose until now, it is almost certain that the other party has evil intentions.

As for what the other party wants to do?

Qin Ran believed that the other party would not wait like this and would definitely take action.

When the time comes, he will wait and see.

And now?

"Thank you for everything."

Qin Ran thanked the high priest of the Hunter Temple.

Lilith on the side also bowed and saluted.

"This is not my credit, but the respectable hunter!"

"You are the ones who have won the favor of hunters, and you will naturally receive the blessings you deserve!"

"High Priest Ryan, Lilith, are you willing to stay and observe the ceremony?"

High Priest Kirk asked.

"certainly!"

Kieran didn't refuse.

As soon as he came, he had told Horace before that he would come to the "Partner Festival" at the Temple of the Hunter.

Secondly, the companions of the animals who have been blessed by the hunter are obliged to witness the birth of a new 'hunter'.

Qin Ran and Lilith stood side by side, watching a group of ten hunters with mature or immature faces coming here.

Unlike their simple rituals.

The rituals these hunters undergo are very complicated.

Not only does everyone need to drink the green juice crushed from a plant, but they also need to feed their animal companions mouth-to-mouth and complete the oath in front of the hunter statue.

Most of these animal companions are hunting dogs, but there are variations.

Falcons are the most common species after hunting dogs.

But there is no shortage of bears, wolves and... wild boars.

When she saw the hunter and the wild boar cub mouth to mouth, the priestess of the Temple of Love couldn't help but turn around. The scene was so unexpected that she couldn't accept it.

Qin Ran watched the whole process without changing his expression.

"I swear, I am brother (sister) with the creature in front of me!"

"I promise, my life will be connected with the life of the creature in front of me!"

"I promise, I will love it more than I do!"

…

The solemn oath echoed in the hills, and the brilliance of the hunters made everything even more sacred.

Every new hunter brings his animal companions to receive the blessings of the gods.

Afterwards, they also receive blessings from their elders, family members, and friends.

A banquet is also in order.

However, a bad news brought it all to an abrupt end.

"Pude was murdered?!"

Lilith covered her mouth and widened her eyes when she heard the news.

Kieran's eyes turned to Horace in the distance without any trace.
