"No need, I've got quite a few too. But what about you? What brings you here?"

Chestnut exclaimed in surprise:

"Don't you know? This time, the Mist God Hunting Grounds have a total of one hundred hunting permits. The three major academies have taken more than thirty, and our church has taken more than sixty."

Xia Fa said "Oh," and pondered for a moment before saying:

"I see."

Chestnut asked curiously:

"And you, how did you get your hunting license?"

Xia Fa didn't think much of it:

"It was given to me by Lord Tyrene."

Chestnut suddenly paused, a look of disorientation appearing in her eyes:

"Huh? Grandpa gave it to you personally?"

She lowered her head, looking somewhat aggrieved, and said:

"Grandpa likes you so much. I always get these from church, but he actually delivered them to you personally."

She looked aggrieved, but the moment she lowered her head, a hint of secret joy flickered in her bright eyes.

That was because he could see that his grandfather approved of Xia Fa, and he was genuinely happy.

Because she also approves of Xia Fa.

Her pitiful, wronged look was so adorable, yet also a little pathetic. Xia Fa couldn't resist patting her head and comforting her:

"It's okay. He probably thinks you're his granddaughter, so he didn't need to deliver it to you personally. You know what I mean?"

Chestnut tilted its head slightly beneath his palm, its soft black hair sliding across his hand, its small face filled with thoughtful expression.

"You mean, Grandpa and I are very close, so we don't need to do this specially?"

Xia Fa nodded:

"clever!"

As the two were talking, the darkness ahead suddenly brightened, emitting a warm, bright yellow light.

That's the color of burning flames.

At the same time, a variety of enticing aromas wafted over from afar.

Chestnut's pert little nose twitched:

"It smells so good! It looks like the meat of a supernatural creature that everyone hunted around a campfire. Let's go over there!"

Xia Fa guessed it was him. He was very hungry after signing the Star Gate agreement and was about to walk quickly with Ban Li to the exit of the Mist God Hunting Ground.

Just then, a stunningly beautiful woman with a hot figure, dressed entirely in a pure white priestess robe and holding a staff, came to greet them.

Her eyes swept over Xia Fa without lingering, then turned to Ban Li, her tone tinged with inexplicable excitement:

"Chestnut, come quick! We...we've found a crucial clue! A key clue on how to get to know the future extraordinary monarch who signed the Silver Throne!"

Chapter 139 The Overlord is Among Us?

Xia Fa almost doubted that he had heard correctly.

Has someone found a clue that allows them to recognize themselves?

He himself didn't know!

However, out of curiosity, Xia Fa also wanted to go and see, even though he knew it was most likely fake.

Chestnut smiled gently, a tender expression on her face, as if afraid Xia Fa wouldn't know, and softly explained to him:

"In the afternoon, the noble students from the three academies witnessed a transcendent being who had signed the Silver Throne kill a demigod supernatural creature at the entrance of the Mist God Hunting Grounds! So now, everyone is looking for this future transcendent monarch."

Looking at her earnest expression, Xia Fa couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, and could only say with a sudden realization:

"Oh, I see..."

Ianser then glanced at Shafa, seemingly surprised by his indifferent reaction, and emphasized:

"You're the Xia Fa that Chestnut mentioned to me, right? Haven't you heard of the Silver Throne? The Silver Throne! That's a supreme-level secret contract! Our Augu Kingdom hasn't had a supreme-level secret contract signed for over a hundred years!"

Xia Fa smiled somewhat helplessly:

"Is that so? Then I'll go with you and take a look?"

Seeing that Xia Fa seemed to have finally given in and realized just how important someone who had signed a hegemon-level pact truly was, Ianser let out a soft hum:

"Alright, I'll let you off the hook since you're Chestnut's friend."

She turned around, and the firelight illuminated her figure, revealing the curves of her body beneath her pure white priest's robe.

The robe could barely contain her slender waist and full hips, and the hem of the robe revealed a section of her long, fair calves, which were stretched out in beautiful lines by her high heels.

Xia Fa glanced at it casually, then looked away, then glanced at it casually again, and looked away again.

The main reason is that she was walking in front, so she could see it when she looked up.

Chestnut secretly observed his expression, and a sly glint suddenly appeared in her bright eyes;

"Her name is Ianse, and she is also the archbishop of our Silver Church. She is only twenty-three years old, but she is already at the Whale level. How about it, she has a great figure, right? Would you like me to introduce you two?"

Xia Fa shook his head and casually chuckled, making a sarcastic remark:

"No need, I don't think I have a better figure than you."

He didn't notice that as soon as he said that, the cute rat girl's face suddenly turned red, and she turned her head slightly away.

Fortunately, it was nighttime, and Ianser had blocked much of the firelight ahead. Seeing that Xiafa hadn't seen him, Chestnut breathed a sigh of relief, then secretly turned his head and asked slyly:

"Hmm...really? But I'm only 1.6 meters tall, and she's a full 1.7 meters tall."

"Really, a truly good figure is about proportions, and your proportions are much better than hers."

"Wait a minute, Xia Fa, how do you know so much? You're not the kind of womanizer who goes around having affairs, are you?"

"How could that be! I'm not interested in women."

"Okay, then let's sleep in a cabin tonight and see if it's really true."

"Ah... ah?"

Seeing Xia Fa stunned, Ban Li chuckled:

"Just kidding. The hunters' huts at the Mist God Hunting Grounds haven't been built yet, so we'll all have to go home tonight."

The two of them didn't notice Ianse, who was walking not far ahead, with a speechless expression on his face.

"That's too much! They can flirt all they want, but they actually whispered about me behind my back..."

However, Ianser soon let out a helpless sigh and shook his head.

For no other reason than she knew that Chestnut, as the Archbishop of the Rum City Diocese of the Silver White Church, had always been very dedicated and busy with various official duties and supernatural events, and rarely had she seen her laughing and joking so freely with a man.

So, let her be.

Moreover, Ianser had always felt that his body proportions were indeed not as good as Chestnut's.

As a member of the rat clan, Chestnut has a unique advantage in this regard. She is slender where she should be and rounded where she should be. Although she is only 1.6 meters tall, her figure is as good as those of top ballet dancers... She has always been extremely envious of her.

Suddenly, Ianser stopped, and Shafa and Chestnut stopped as well.

They had reached the exit of the Mist God Hunting Grounds.

Outside the long fence and the iron pillars engraved with secret inscriptions, at the exit of the Mist God Hunting Grounds, a huge bonfire with a diameter of ten meters was being lit.

The campfire was burning brightly, clearly gathered by the noble students and church elites in the Mist God's Hunting Grounds.

Above the campfire, roasted deer, bears, rabbits... were skewered on iron skewers, but they floated above the fire, slowly rotating.

Beside the campfire, several young noblemen were proudly manipulating the iron rod with their air currents or telekinesis.

Xia Fa even saw a whole roasted cow, but it was a cow with four horns on its head, and he didn't know what kind of supernatural creature it was.

However, many people did not watch the barbecue performance by the noble young masters, but instead gathered in a circle around the campfire in the open space.

Ianse waved to the two men, signaling them to follow, and then squeezed into the crowd.

Xia Fa also squeezed in and immediately saw the five magical mechanical pillars stuck in the open space.

He was all too familiar with this magical mechanical pillar; wasn't this the masterpiece of that fat man, Daponz?

Sure enough, Daponz was standing in the middle of the mechanical pillar, surrounded by star-blue silver powder and platinum silver ingots.

"Isn't this just the powder left after my Star Silver vapor cooled down, and the Silver of Destruction? What is he trying to do...?"

Xia Fa was curious, but not afraid.

Because, back when he was advancing his understanding of the Silver Throne, a supreme-level secret contract, he had already acquired a great deal of related knowledge and information.

One of these is that no matter what kind of being it is, it is absolutely impossible to trace back to its location using the supernatural substances left behind by the supernatural beings who signed the Silver Throne, such as Rhine Silver Mercury, Destruction Silver, Mithril, Star Silver, Red Silver, etc.

Whether it's divination, prying into secrets, or offering sacrifices to the unknown to be tracked down, it's all useless.

It is estimated that only the nine righteous gods have this ability.

But the nine righteous gods have nothing better to do than pay attention to him. Besides, they hardly ever respond to prayers anymore.

Therefore, Xia Fa doesn't care at all.

Now, the moment he saw the silver nuggets and dust at Daponz's feet, he had a premonition that Daponz was about to make a fool of himself.

Daponz, however, was beaming with excitement as he proclaimed:

"This is the 'mechanical divination technique' that my mother taught me, and which I have improved many times. Once my five magical mechanical pillars begin divination, they will resonate with the stars in the sky, achieving unimaginable divination effects!"

He seemed to enjoy being surrounded and watched by aristocratic students and church elites. With a wave of his hand and a flick of his fat arm, he declared with boundless pride:

"I will begin the divination now. Don't worry, everyone. I will definitely be able to find that future extraordinary monarch. However, we must not disturb him. When the time comes, we will pay our respects after we have performed all the proper etiquette."

The noble students and church elites all showed genuine anticipation and stepped back to create a larger circle, allowing Daponz to do as he pleased.

Auf, riding on the Traveling Slime, was at the very front of the circle. Surprisingly, she gave Daponz face, patted the Traveling Slime, and then stepped back a considerable distance.

Suddenly, her gaze swept over and she saw Xia Fa.
