Chapter 1492 Hunter (5)
After two hours, the party gathered with their harvest. Everyone was doing well, not so troubled to face the Rank 2 Cmity. Again, the most significant contribution was certainly Avyn. Her Frost did not just restrain the cmity but also weakened them. That wasthe main reasonwhy Cmity Mud Dragon and Cmity Mud Serpent were easy to kill.
In the twohours time, they managed to hunt two hundred and thirty-two Rank 2 Cmity. While many managed to break free from the frozen swamp, many also did not survive from the frozen swamp. He heard a lot of killing notifications even while everyone gathered around him. That meant they died because they were frozen for too long.
Tang Shaoyang put everything into his inventory,and his inventorywould be half-full by the time he finished the frozen cmity. Unfortunately, the bodies of cmity could not be stacked. Each corpse took onespot of the inventory, "Can you return to the city, Aerelion? I need to dump these bodies to Madaki."
The easy solution was to send one of his spirits to the city and switch positions with his spirit. By the time he finished harvesting the frozen cmity, his inventory would be half-full. On top of that, they were not that far from the city, so it would not take thatmuch timefor Aerelion to reach the city.
The Infernal Wyvern immediately flew toward the city, and Avyn melted the swamp. The swamp returned to normal. Even though it melted instantly, the water was still ice cold. Soonthebody of Rank 2 Cmity floated on the surface.
Not all Cmity Mud Serpents and Cmity Mud Dragons died, but TangShaoyang did not want to waitfor too longjustfor another twenty or thirty Rank 2 Cmity. He nned to go to the next prey instead.
Tang Shaoyang did not leave a single bodyandhis inventory was indeedhalf-full after everything.Four hundredandeighty-one Rank 2 Cmity mixed Cmity Mud Dragon and Cmity Mud Serpent. The serpent had a far more miserable time than the dragonwhohadfeet. Theserpentwas wriggling in the ice without being able to control its body and became an easy target.
"We have killed a lot of Rank 2 Cmity…" AtfirstTang Shaoyang did not think much about it, but then he saw his inventory. Four hundredandeighty-two Rank 2 Cmity, meaning he got 4820 points in two hours, "Does that mean my name is in the top 100?" He immediately checked his current point.
[Tang Shaoyang - 5073]
It did not show him the rank, but the system let him check his total points, "More than five thousand? I am almost in the top 20 even." He let out a chuckle. Two hours ago, his score was just a measly 253 points.
"We should look at something simr to the swamp. If we can find one more area like that with rank 2 Cmity. It should be easy to catch up to the first ce," Vandirmented.
If all the hunt was this easy,then they reallymight catch up to Ian Carmen in a few days. Unfortunately, this was the only area where the cmity lived in the water. There was a simrke, but thecmityinside theke was Rank 4 and above. They had tried Avyn''s frost aura on Rank 4 Cmity. She could freeze them, but that was it.
The Rank 4 Cmityeasilybroke free from the ice and fought them on the surface. Different from the stupid serpent that wriggled on the slick ice. The Rank 4 Cmity could fly, as if they could use a flying skill. That was what he tried yesterday, and the moment he realized the Rank 4 Cmity could fly, he escaped, not taking the risk of fighting the unknown Rank 4 Cmity.
"Aerelion is near thecity,waitfor me here."
Tang Shaoyang used [Spirit Switch] and switched ces with Aerelion. Aerelion did note closer to the city. The guards and the other participants might mistake Aerelion for a cmity if he came too close to thecity.
As he arrived at the south gate, he received a sharp re from the two guards. It must be because of the incident against The Sorc n. But it still did not make sense for the two guards to give such hostility just because of what happened.
He shrugged and walked past them into the city. Merely re did not bother him. Instead of going directly to the market, hewalkedcloser to the screen, curious about his rank. The bar to the top 20 was raised once more by five hundred points.
[20. Timo in Woodgate - 5620]
He looked for his name. Even though the point did not differthat much, he was not in the top 30 or even top 40.
[42. Tang Shaoyang - 5073]
Less than six hundred points gap, itwas a close gap, but not so close in the rank, ''But getting top 20 today is feasible.''He left the square, going to the market to meet Madaki.
"Isn''t it too early for you toe? I thought you were going serious starting today?" Madaki was sitting behind the counter of his shop in his tank top, waving his legs while having roasted peanuts.
Ever since receiving his Tortoine order, he never took another customer. That wasright,Madakiwas like Tang Shaoyang''s personal butcher. He only worked for Tang Shaoyang and refused the other customers.
"Ie to drop the bodies. My inventory is half-full, so I think it''s better to drop them before going to the deeper area."
The burly manimmediatelystood up from his chair, waving his hand toward Tang Shaoyang to follow him to the workshop, "Do we have more tortoine today?"
Tang Shaoyang shook his head, "I toldyou,yesterday would be thest tortoine…." He noticed the tortoine still filled half of the workshop, "I don''t think you have enough space…."
"Just fill the workshop. I rent a storage space, and you will put the remaining space there."
Tang Shaoyang dumped a little over a hundred of Cmity Mud Dragon. He stacked them up till the bodies touched the ceiling.
"Hoho… You reallyjustwant to hunt the cmity with high value, huh? Do you want to eat meat as well? I think Manoe will dly take this fake dragon meat," Madaki checked the condition and furrowed his brow. From six bodies, he noticed three different marks. It was as ifdifferentpeople killed them instead of the same person. N?v(el)B\\jnn
After filling the workshop, Madaki led Tang Shaoyang to theworkshopand dumped the remaining bodies. If he had a suspicion before, he was now sure that all these cmities were caused by different people. He saw the clean cut in the neck, Tang Shaoyang''s signature way of killing the monster.But in some monsters, he noticed the crude cutandsomeof themseemed to be frozen to deathas well.
"I thought you were hunting solo. Are you joining a party?"
"It''s a party, but also not a party," They were his spirits, and it was not an official party, "I don''t care about the meat. You can sell them to Manoe, and I will not take anything from you if you want. Alright, I am done here."
He switched ces with Vandir without prior notice. The skeleton was shocked that he was suddenly in the storage space with unknownas well ascmity bodies. His dark aura red out, thinking he might be in danger. But then he was recalled by Tang Shaoyang quickly.
Madaki witnessed everything, including the skeleton. That caught him off guard, andalmostsnapped at the skeleton. But then he quickly realized the skeleton was Tang Shaoyang''s.
"So that''s what he means by it''s a party, but not a party. Necromancer-rted ss, huh?"
