The messy and gray beard and hair are like the mane of an old lion, the tall and withered body is like a skinned skeleton, and the cloudy eyes are like two dusty gems.

Looking at the old man in front of him, Yang Pan could imagine that he must have been a powerful hunter when he was young, but now he looked like a dying lion.

It’s hard to imagine how much of a blow it took for this old man named Kane to become what he is now.

Yang Pan didn't waste any time, he took out the 'Hunter's Note' and threw it to the old man in front of him, and said, "The village chief asked me to come find you."

After taking the notebook, Kane's whole body trembled.

Yang Pan could see that the old man's mouth in front of him kept opening and closing, as if he was calling someone's name.

After a while, Kane put away his notebook, raised his head and took a deep look at Yang Pan, then turned and walked towards the back room, "Come in and talk."

When Yang Pan saw this, he followed the old hunter in without hesitation.

After entering the back room, Yang Pan's eyes stayed on the wall facing the door for a while.

Take a broken tachi hanging on the wall. Judging from the shape and yellow and blue color scheme, it should be a tiger sword made of the materials of the 'absolutely powerful' Hōryū.

To be able to destroy a tiger sword to such an extent, that enemy should not be underestimated.

After finding a seat in the back room and sitting down, Old Kane picked up a wine bottle on the table and took a deep sip, then said, "Boy, what kind of hunter are you, how powerful can you be?"

Yang Pan didn't answer, but waved his hand directly, and the crimson unparalleled sword was inserted on the floor in front of Kane.

"puff!"

All the wine in Kane's mouth spurted out, and his eyes gradually became fiery as he watched the Unparalleled Sword in the World, and he was still muttering to himself, "Unparalleled Sword in the World, Ancient Dragon Hunter, I didn't expect that I would wait. In this case, Feng

Maybe..."

It wasn't until Yang Pan put away the unparalleled sword that Kane came back to his senses.

With a sigh, Kane threw away the wine bottle in his hand, and then said to Yang Pan, "Little brother, do you want to hear a story?"

…

A long time ago, a village was established on the snowy mountain. A young man came to the village on the snowy mountain under the assignment of the Hunters' Union and became the village's resident hunter.

After that, the young man continued to accept various commissions and hunted the powerful monsters that threatened the development of the village.

One day, when the young man was out hunting, he met a female hunter who also used a tachi. Her name was Maple.

Kaede was very beautiful, and her movements of wielding the sword were like dancing, which attracted the young man almost as soon as they met.

Thanks to the young man's proactive advances, Feng soon accepted the handsome young man with superb swordsmanship, and the two quickly fell in love.

After that, Feng and the youth formed a hunting team, accepted missions together, and participated in the hunt together.

With their tacit cooperation, superb swordsmanship and proficient hunting skills, they defeated powerful enemies one after another. Even Honglong, who was known as the "absolutely strong man", fell into their hands.

However, the success of hunting again and again made the young man become arrogant, proud, and not satisfied with the status quo.

Finally one day, after finishing his day's work, the young man returned to his residence and came up with a crazy idea with his lover Feng.

He's going to challenge the other end

Living deep in the snowy mountains, there is a powerful ancient dragon that can control the power of the storm - the Steel Dragon.

Unlike the arrogant young man, Feng, who is relatively rational, is very aware of the dangers of challenging Gu Long.

However, Feng did not persuade his lover, but actively cooperated with the young man in making various hunting preparations.

Feng understands his lover. If he decides to do something, no one can persuade him to come back. He may even challenge the ancient dragon alone, who is like the incarnation of a natural disaster.

Soon, the two men, who had completed their preparations, embarked on a journey to defeat the Steel Dragon under the eyes of the villagers who were either worried or blessing.

A week later, the seriously injured young man and his broken tiger sword were discovered by a passing hunter at the foot of the snowy mountain. As for the female hunter Feng, she was missing.

…

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, Feng wouldn't be able to..."

Looking at the old lion in front of him who was lost in memories and blaming himself, Yang Pan said lightly, "Is that it?"

"What did you say?" Kane looked up at Yang Pan.

"My wife is dead, and you just sit in your doghouse drinking and drowning your sorrows like a loser, but you don't think about how to kill that monster, huh!" Yang Pan said with great disdain.

"How do you know I don't want to kill that bastard Steel Dragon? I..."

Kane was about to explain when he saw Yang Pan casually wave his hand, "Okay, stop talking nonsense, you want me to kill that steel dragon, right? Tell me its location."

Yang Pan didn't mention the issue of remuneration at all. Looking at old Kane's dejected appearance, he probably wouldn't be able to get anything good out of him.

Old Kane opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he just said, "Thank you."

After leaving Old Kane's residence, Yang Pan had another map in his hand. It was the map that Old Kane had used when he was young. It marked the gathering places of monsters near Bokai Village in detail.

Although the distribution of monsters may have changed after so many years, the territory of powerful monsters like the Steel Dragon will basically remain unchanged.

Because those who dared to challenge the steel dragon, whether they were monsters or hunters, had basically been buried in the snowy mountains where the cold wind was howling.

In addition to the map, Yang Pan's second ring space mission has also been updated.

The mission goal is simple, kill the steel dragon in the snowy mountains and retrieve the relics of Kane's lover, a huntress named Maple.

Although Kane did not say the final outcome of his lover, judging from this mission, the other party should be dead.

As for the reward for this mission, it is 50,000 trading points, plus a random weapon, equipment or prop made of steel dragon materials.

To be honest, this reward can be said to be very good for ordinary people, but for Yang Pan, it is dispensable.

Walking on the road in the village, just when Yang Pan was thinking about whether to go directly to find trouble with the steel dragon, the lion skin cloak in his arms suddenly moved.

A small head squirmed out of the lion's skin cloak and said in a daze, "I slept so comfortably. Where am I?"

Yang Pan kept walking and responded, "The hunter's world, snow mountains, Bokai Village."

The little head in Yang Pan's arms was stunned for a moment, and he immediately let out a scream, "Ah! Who are you and why are you so close to me!"

As he spoke, Tohsaka Rin began to struggle continuously.

In this regard, Yang Panze

He let go of his hand very simply and allowed Tohsaka Rin to break free from his arms.

After breaking free from Yang Pan's embrace, as soon as Tohsaka Rin's feet touched the ground, he felt his feet go soft and his whole body collapsed directly to the ground.

Yang Pan adjusted his lion skin cloak very calmly, and suddenly took out a blanket and threw it to the little girl who was sitting on the ground and staring at him warily.

"Take care of yourself."

After leaving these words, Yang Pan turned around and left.

To be able to do this, he has done his utmost to be benevolent and righteous.

In fact, Yang Pan was able to restrain himself from killing the opponent, which was considered a great mercy.

You must know that Infinite Space is very serious about space intruders. This can be seen just by looking at the rewards and punishments given by Infinite Space.

Rin Tosaka, who was slumped on the ground, was now fully conscious.

Holding the blanket that Yang Pan threw to her, Lin, who was already very smart, immediately understood the cause and effect of the matter.

The tall man who just hugged her and made her feel very friendly saved her, and he was the only person here who could communicate with her, but she...

Feeling the biting cold wind on the snow-capped mountains, thinking of his current embarrassing situation and the warm and secure feeling before, the seven or eight-year-old Tosaka Rin's eyes could not help but be filled with tears of grievance.

She stretched out her hand towards the tall figure who was retreating in front of her and made her feel friendly. She shouted with some choking, "No, don't leave, help me."

Under Tohsaka Rin's slightly expectant gaze, the tall figure stopped in his tracks, and then lowered his head slightly, as if he sighed.

The next second, Tohsaka Rin felt a blur in front of his eyes, followed by a feeling of weightlessness.

By the time Tohsaka Rin reacted, her body had been wrapped in a soft lion skin cloak and held in a warm embrace full of security.

Tohsaka Rin's cheeks were slightly red, she sniffed and asked in a low voice, "I, what should I call you?"

"Yang Pan."

By some mistake, Yang Pan did not reveal his code name in space, but revealed his real name in reality.

"Yang Pan." Tohsaka Rin said Yang Pan's name in somewhat broken Chinese, and then said, "My name is Tohsaka Rin, I..."

"Little girl, I know your name, and even more." Yang Pan said without raising his head, "Is the Fourth Holy Grail War over?"

"You, how do you know, isn't this a different world?" Tohsaka Rin opened his eyes and said incredulously.

…

In the end, Tohsaka Rin still failed to get any more information from Yang Pan.

Just kidding, no matter what happens, Yang Pan will not be fooled around by an eight or nine-year-old girl.

Not getting the answer he wanted. He was still under the help of the other party and could not do anything to the other party. Rin Tosaka felt both angry and frustrated.

Seeing that Yang Pan had left Bokai Village, Tohsaka Rin couldn't help but ask, "Yang, where are we going?"

At this moment, Yang Pan's footsteps suddenly stopped.

At this time, they were already some distance away from the village, and there were even signs of wild animal activity around them.

"This is it."
