hunting light

On that day, the members involved in the rescue witnessed a scene they would never forget.

The autumn typhoon code-named "Starfish" blew from the ocean to the land, but in just half a day, the size of the storm increased several times, and the weather disaster warning was quickly upgraded from yellow to red.

When the rescue team drove the military shuttle to the sea area where the accident occurred, it was the time when the wind was strongest.

The surface of the sea was pitch-black at midnight, and the dark clouds overhead were so low that the sky collapsed and fell into the world.

The lightning was so dense that almost every rescue shuttle was struck by lightning at least once.It took them twice as long as usual before they finally arrived at the location.

Kent was sprawled on the shuttle, seemingly unconscious.

"Where are there two more people?" The rescue captain shouted, "The drone is activated, bring this child up first."

The drone was put down and just flew towards Kent, and the AI ​​of the operating system issued a series of alarms.

"An abnormal energy fluctuation has been detected on the seabed!"

"Energy fluctuations are confirmed as mecha-specific energy."

"The energy is increasing rapidly! It is predicted that-"

Before he finished speaking, a strong and invisible shock wave rushed out from the bottom of the sea with a buzzing sound, causing the flying shuttle hovering above the sea to shake for a while.

With the sea below as the center, circles of waves spread out in a circular manner.

"What the hell?" The captain was astonished.

The holographic imaging map then simulates the panorama of the seabed. The wreck "Sharktooth" exploded from its belly, was blown into two pieces, and was falling towards the trench.

"How come..." The captain couldn't believe it, "I thought that shit had already been checked and cleared..."

"Captain!" shouted the team doctor. "The child who was rescued said that the priest went into the water to save the Duke's son! He also said that there is..."

The captain cursed, turned around and slapped his chest badge, and the water-proof light armor began to quickly wrap around his body.

"The second team will follow me..."

The system sounded again: "Attention, another wave of mech energy fluctuations was detected. The location of the occurrence is 25 meters below the sea surface. The location is slowly moving downward, and the signal is increasing at the same time."

"How could there be a mech?" The captain's confusion had reached its peak. "The ship has sunk for more than 120 years, and all usable things have been dismantled long ago!"

"Warning!" The system voice suddenly shrill, "The energy of the opponent's mecha is running at full speed, and it is about to leave the sunken ship!"

In the image, a ball of golden energy light shoots out from the hull and is rising rapidly toward the sea.And in front of the straight track is this rescue shuttle.

The system sounded the anti-collision alarm.

"Get out of the way!" the captain roared with his eyes wide open.

The shuttle suddenly turned to one side.Everyone in the cabin who was not wearing a seat belt fell.

In the next second, the ball of golden light broke through the water from the bottom of the sea, brushed against the side of the wing that the shuttle was barely avoiding, and rushed straight into the sky.

The shuttle shook violently again.

It was as if a miracle came to him from the gods, and the storm stopped suddenly at this moment.

The cloud moved away, the rainstorm receded, it was noon, and the sun slowly fell on the sea like gold powder.Like a tamed beast, the violent waves lowered their proud heads.

The ring-shaped eye of the typhoon above the head is nearly one kilometer in diameter. The sky inside is clear and blue, and the wind is sunny. Compared with the surrounding area, it looks like a paradise where God lives.

That ball of golden light soared straight up and hovered in the eye of the wind, as if gathering the sunlight from the sky and the earth on him.Around him, colorful light spots surrounded and stretched out like several pairs of spread wings.

"Apparition..." a team member murmured.

"The Holy Lord has appeared!"

"It's the Holy Light! It's the Holy Lord who is redeeming!"

The team members may not all be devout believers, but at this moment, they couldn't help being shocked by the magnificent scene in front of them, and felt reverence and admiration from the bottom of their hearts.

In front of everyone's eyes, the golden light slowly descended towards the flying shuttle.

"What's that?" The captain's voice trembled.

The system replied: "Mecha energy and two human life forms have been detected. Among the two human beings, one's vital signs are below the warning line. It is recommended to prepare for medical emergency immediately."

The golden light gradually descended, and everyone in the shuttle finally saw clearly that it was a man in light armor holding a young man in his arms.

"Open the deck!" The captain recognized that the unconscious young man was Father Mitchell.

The mech man hugged the priest, and slowly landed on the deck under the vertical sunlight.

The captain ran towards them with his men.

The mottled and incomplete mecha completed its mission, and began to loosen piece by piece from the boy's body, peeled off, and fell down with a clanging sound.

"It's the young master of the Duke's family." After the helmet came off, the team members recognized the handsome blond boy.

"God bless!"

"He's awakened!"

"I've never seen an Alpha with such power in its first awakening..."

Leon hugged the unconscious Ian and knelt down on the deck with a plop.

The armor parts were scattered all over the ground, and the heavy core machine rolled away along the deck, and fell into the sea with a plop.

The steel gloves crumbled and fell off.Leon panted, hugging Ian tightly in his arms, hugging his pale and cold head, trying to warm him with his own chest.

"Master Leon?" The captain couldn't believe it, "My lord, child. You have awakened..."

"Help him." Leon said hoarsely, his eyes were red, "Please, help..."

He fell forward and passed out on top of Ian.

***

Leon's first memory of home was not Parthenon.

Although he was born in the Parthenon Manor, when he was three years old, as his fathers divorced, he was taken away from the manor by his father and moved to a small mansion more than half an hour's drive away from the manor.

He lived here with his biological father for more than six years until his biological father passed away.

It was a house painted in light blue, with a long ginkgo forest road leading to the main road.The room is spacious and bright, and the attic is arranged as a game room.All kinds of roses are planted in the front and back of the house, which are open in turn throughout the year and never wither.

When he was a child, Leon didn't think there was anything wrong with this home.The fathers still live together, and they still look so loving.

In the first few years, the Duke even lived here for a long time, and only went back to have dinner with his newly married lady on weekends, and performed obligatory intercourse.This is how Leon's brother Paul was born.

No one blamed the duke.It's not surprising that an Alpha with power and status would do this. It's normal for the rich and powerful to have several homes outside.

They would only talk about Leon's biological father behind his back, the man who didn't leave after the divorce, and even became his ex-husband's concubine from a legal spouse.

There was a disgusting sourness in the tone of the nobles.

"After all, I have served the Duke for decades, and I am considerate in dealing with people and things, and she is also pretty, but it is a pity that my status is a little low."

"I heard that he is practicing again now, and has opened a small clinic. Didn't the Duke give him money?"

"What if you don't find something to do? Wait at home all day for the Duke to come?"

"The son is born there, why doesn't he leave? Do you think the Duke will change his mind?"

"He and the Duke had been married for so many years and hadn't had a child. As soon as the royal family urged him, he immediately became pregnant. What's the use of it? Didn't the Duke dump him and marry a nobleman?"

"The common people are always delusional...but his son has taken the title of the Duke's eldest son anyway."

Neighbors' comments are another story.

"Dr. Gercia is really a serious and responsible doctor. He also helped me apply for sickness allowance."

"Such a smart and excellent person, but unfortunately fell in love with such a man."

"If I were him, I would leave the child to the Duke and leave Fryer by myself. I am still young, so I can find another good man. Male Omegas are in high demand wherever they go. What's more, the doctor is still tall. so pretty……"

"He hates the child. The Duke will not let him take his son away."

"I think he is also reluctant to part with the Duke. After all, they have been married for decades..."

"Oh, love..."

love.

In Leon's memory, his father liked to sit in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the small salon and play the piano.

His slender and light fingers danced on the black and white keys, playing cheerful and beautiful or soothing and sad melodies.

"If I don't become a doctor, I may become a pianist." He once said to his son, "Music is the language of God. Through these melodies, he communicates with all souls. In this way, his voice can travel through time , space, beyond life, exists forever."

And as the number of the Duke's visits gradually decreased, Dad spent more and more time playing the piano in front of the window.

"Did you say he'd come today, Leon?" he asked his son. "Or at night? Or tomorrow?"

Of course Little Leon couldn't answer.

Dad sometimes played the piano until late at night. In the room with no lights on, the moonlight streamed on the antique piano, illuminating his lonely and sad but handsome profile.

"Yesterday the doctor quarreled with the Duke again." The servants chewed their tongues.

"I look forward to the Duke's arrival every day, but when I come, I quarrel with him again."

"I heard that the Duchess is pregnant again."

During those days, little Leon was very familiar with the back view of his father slamming the door angrily after he quarreled with his father.

"Love makes people hurt." The man said to Leon, he was smiling, but his eyes were raining heavily.

"Don't, never fall in love with anyone, my son. Don't give them a chance to manipulate you. You are my little lion, my one and only, bravest and greatest fighter. You will own the whole world. You Let them love you, worship your splendor, thirst for your handouts. And you love no one."

"If..." the man changed the subject, "If you really fell in love with someone, then he must be the best in the world and the best match for you. Then, you must hold on to him firmly and use your Paralyze him with the strongest love, infiltrate him with the most persistent perseverance, let him attach his soul to you, entrust his life to you, and will not be separated from you until death."

"That way, you won't die of a broken heart..."

Leon still remembers that day, when he came home from school, he didn't see his father.

All his things were still there, the score was blown away by the wind and mixed with the petals that came in from the window.It seems that he just went out to the clinic and hasn't come back yet.

Leon saw his father, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, chatting with several strangers, and everyone's faces were ugly.

Then the Duke came over and knelt down in front of his son.

"Your father left Fryer for something, and won't come back for a while. From today, you and I will return to live in Parthenon."

The duke's broad hand rested on his son's young shoulder.

"Leon, you are my eldest son. I hope you will become strong. You will become the greatest Alpha warrior in the Coleman family!"

"Don't let your father down."

Leon opened his eyes.

The golden sunlight filled the window lattice, and the birds sang on the branches.The sky was so bright that there was no sign of a storm.

A tall and thin figure stood by the window.

"dad……"

The man turned around, showing a kind smile, and the wrinkles on his face stretched.

"Ah, it's time to wake up too." Dr. Marvin walked over with a smile, "My time calculation is really accurate. How do you feel, son?"

Leon stared at him blankly for a moment, then suddenly struggled to sit up.Unexpectedly, as soon as I supported my hand, I realized that all the strength in my body was empty again.Dr. Marvin gave him a slight nudge on the shoulder, and he fell back into the bedding again.

"Ian..." Leon's eyes turned red with anxiety, "Father, he..."

"He's fine." The Duke of Oran opened the door and entered with a gloomy expression, and shouted, "You, stay on the bed!"

"The Duke is really frightened by you, Leon." Doctor Marvin examined Leon with a smile, "Fortunately, nothing irreversible happened. The young master of the Hughes family was not seriously injured. Instead, you The most dangerous, child. You almost failed to awaken."

If Alpha is greatly stimulated during the awakening period, or if the ability is used improperly, the awakening will fail.Alphas that fail to awaken will not be able to have a superior physique, and some will even lose the pheromone that attracts Omega, which is not much better than a Beta.

"But luckily, the threat of death brings out the best in you and pushes you through the toughest obstacles. You're feeling drained now because you've exhausted your energy from escaping. After a day or two of rest, you'll be a kicking lad again. gone."

Dr. Marvin proudly handed the photon board to Leon: "Look at your data. We tested it while you were in a coma, and the true value can only be higher. You achieved an A+ level in your first awakening, lad. Congratulations. Also Congratulations, Your Excellency the Duke."

The Duke of Oran stood at the foot of the bed with folded hands, looked coldly at the eldest son who hadn't quite recovered, and snorted coldly.

"Ian...how is the priest?" Leon threw the photon board away.Now that he was sure that he was fine, he was most concerned about Ian.

"That's all said, he's fine," the Duke said gruffly. "He didn't die in your stupid rescue, and the treatment cabin took care of all his injuries. The leg injury was a bit tricky, so he'll be recuperating at home." A few days. You should be glad you didn't drag him down, you idiot!"

Leon gripped the bed sheet tightly and lowered his head.

"I should give you father and son some space to talk." Dr. Marvin packed his bag, nodded to the Duke, and left.

On the side outside the door, a young man was standing against the wall, wearing white clothes and black trousers, with soft and curly black hair hanging down, half covering his delicate eyebrows and eyes.

Dr. Marvin turned around and closed the door carefully, nodding and smiling at the young man friendly.

"He's fine, he'll be back soon. He'll be better than ever."

"Thank you, doctor." Ian said softly.

The doctor asked, "Aren't you going to see him, Father? He's been asking you. You both seem to be very concerned about each other."

"No." Ian smiled, "There's no rush. He's just awakened and needs a little time to get used to it. I just know everything is fine."

He nodded to the doctor, leaned on his cane, and headed for the stairs.

Inside the room, the blond boy was sitting on the head of the bed, his eyes were a little dull.His thoughts were still immersed in the chaotic memories of the period before he fell into a coma.

The pursuit of the water monster, the sinking ship exploded, and he connected with a broken mech through the senses, turning the opponent into a light armor, and escaped from the desperate situation.

He still remembers holding Ian and hovering in the eye of the typhoon, the warm sunlight falling on them.Ian's face in a coma is so fragile that it hurts.

He suffered such serious injuries and encountered such great dangers, all because of himself.

"You're not dreaming." The Duke lifted a chair by the bed and sat with his legs crossed, watching his pitiful son. "Father Mitchell saved you. And you saved both of you. I don't know." What kind of power awakened the broken mech in the sinking ship—everyone said it was the apparition of the Holy Lord, so let’s just treat it as such. The key point is that you summoned the mecha for your use, so you escaped smoothly, and Instead of being buried in that trench and becoming the dinner of those water monsters."

Leon listened numbly.

"You have awakened, Leon," said the Duke. "From now on, you are no longer a child, but a man."

Leon raised his head, looking at his father with clear blue eyes.He heard a different tone from his father's seemingly plain words.

"Put away your poor childish appearance, and Father Mitchell is not in this room." The Duke said coldly, "Since you are already a man. Then, there are certain things about me and this family that you should knew."

Leon looked at his father and sat up straight.
