Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 229 - 221: Conquering the Endless Forest 2

Alex who had just eliminated the Bane Lizard let his guard down.

It happened at that moment.

Whoosh! Bang!

Alexʼs head burst like watermelon and he was insta-killed.

Silveria who was watching everything from afar couldnʼt help but sigh. How can master commit such a blunder? Well, the enemy is a sneaky one. All the blame canʼt be put on master.

Indeed it was as she said, Alex may have let his guard down, however, if there was an enemy behind or not too far from him he would have known. Only if this enemy let his killing intent slip, even it was a little bit of it, the thing thatʼs monster didnʼt do. The monster had perfectly concealed himself, whether it is his presence or his intention to kill.

It was no wonder Alex with his limited divine sense couldnʼt spot him until he strikes.

Alex reappeared in the same spot, however, this time he was prepared, he rolled on the ground dodging another stone hurled at him. Yes! It was a stone that killed him. While dodging the second stone, Alex hurled a knife in the direction where the stone came from.

Bang! Crack!

Knife and stone clashed, it was the stone that broke into pieces while the knife continued its course before striking the hiding monster.

ʼʼRoaar!”

A loud bellow could be heard, followed by the forest shaking. Looking at this scene, Alexʼs heart sank.

Boom… Boom…

Shortly after, heavy, deep footsteps echoed and a tall figure appeared before him. It was a huge ape with a thick white fur, clutching a thick, stone club in one of its hands while in the remaining-hand was stone.

ʼʼYou gotta be kidding me.ʼʼ Alexʼs eyes widened in horror when he saw this monster.

[Demonic Ice Ape (Mini-boss) Level 75]

Bang! Bang!

Alex attacked, not giving the ape the time attack. However, the ape still dodged before vanishing.

ʼFastʼ Alex thought before crossing his arms in front of his chest.

Bang!

When the demonic Ice Ape reappeared, he was already in front of Alex, punching him.

Like a rocket, Alex was flung back, traveling more than thirty meters passing above a lake. The moment he passed, Alex felt a chill down his spine, as if there was a dangerous monster lurking in the depth of the lake.

He knew he would die several times if he were to face the demonic Ice Ape.

ʼIf the inner zone is this hard. I wonder how strong the monsters in the core zone are?ʼ  he wondered.

As if she could read Alexʼs mind, Silveria chuckled, ʼʼFufufu! Letʼs see how you will deal with them.ʼʼ

The moment Alex landed on the other side of the lake, an idea cropped up in his head.

Grinning evilly, he decided to put his idea into motion. Using Accel, he reappeared not too far from the demonic Ice Ape.

The Demonic Ice Ape turned to him abruptly and upon witnessing his presence, it snapped its jaw open and let out a deafening bellow. Then, it turned decisively, and started pursuing him.

”Oooo———!”

Along with the raging snarl, the Demonic Ice Ape metamorphosed into a formidable storm that charged straight at Alex. Although it was massive, its speed wasnʼt slow at all, he knew this.

Alex sprinted as quickly as possible, but the demonic Ice Ape followed him closely. The trees that obstructed its path snapped, and the demonic Ice Ape showed no intention of stopping. Not only that, but the gap between Alex and the Ape was also closing!

ʼGreat keep following me.ʼ

Even though it was what he wished for, Alex felt somewhat nervous. He didnʼt dare to underestimate this monster behind him. His divine sense was in max as this monster has unusual movement skills.

ʼI need to be faster!ʼ

Alexʼs speed quickened to the max.

Suddenly, his six senses warned him of extreme danger.

ʼSo he is going to use it.ʼ Alex thought.

Swish!

The instant this thought cropped up in Alexʼs mind, his vision dazzled. At that moment, he turned over abruptly to deviate from his original path, stamped his foot, and leaped up. At the same time, along with a flash of blinding brilliance, the Demonic Ice Ape disappeared without a trace, only to stop right in front of his intended path in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, Alex had switched directions. If not, perhaps he would have walked right into the trap of the demonic Ice Ape! and get pummeled to death.

”Roar!!!”

The Demonic Ice Ape that completed its teleportation swung its arms furiously from above and slammed onto the ground. However, Alex was ready to dodge this deadly attack. Without any hesitation, he zoomed past the monster leaving a trail of afterimages behind.

Alex knew that the Demonic Ice Ape movement skill was similar to his own, teleportation. Therefore he was prepared against it. If not, he would have ended up miserably if he were caught off guard and stopped by the Demonic Ice Ape.

The Demonic Ice Ape realized its attack had failed to hit its prey and couldnʼt help but feel bewildered. But at the next moment, it let out a furious bellow, turned around, and charged at Alex.

The latter nimbly dodged the monster attack and kept running. This infuriated the monster even more, like a mad bull he charged at Alex.

While dodging the monsterʼs attack, Alex continued to run ahead with one goal in mind.

The Demonic Ice Ape is only a monster with limited intelligence, if not he would have seen through Alexʼs scheme. However, due to his limited intelligence and Alexʼs scheme, the demonic Ice Ape ignored everything and charged at him. Being a territorial creature himself, the demonic Ice Ape should be aware of what happened when an unwanted guess barge into your territory.

Anyone who trespassed on another monsterʼs territory would only head down the road to extinction.

Silveria knew what her master was up to, she couldnʼt help but smile. It was a pretty clever move. The moment the Demonic Ice Ape sent Alex toward the lake he had already lost.

Crossing one leg over another, she ate her popcorn while muttering.

ʼʼAn interesting show is about to begin.ʼʼ

•••••

The chase continued, Alex was running for his life, from time to time he would taunt the Demonic Ice Ape by attacking him. Even though Alexʼs attacks didnʼt deal too much damage to him, they were still annoying. The monster vowed to tear Alex apart no matter what it takes.

Alex quickly checked his remaining MP,

ʼI still have more than half of my MP.ʼ Alex muttered and continued running. The Demonic Ice continued chasing after him.

They kept running until Alex saw the lake. The instant he reached the shore of the lake, he turned around, and unleashed a dozen knives at the Demonic Ice Ape!

”Roar!!!”

The sight of Alex not only escaping from it but also brazenly retaliating enraged the Demonic Ice Ape. It raised its muscular arms and hurled its fists at Alex. Winds blustered in the vivid, powerful force that blasted the knives away.

The Demonic Ice Ape lowered its body to dodge Alexʼs Phantom Bullet as he knew how dangerous the invisible bullet was.

After dodging the bullet, the Demonic Ice Ape disappeared to reappear in the air, he clenched its fists and rammed into Alexʼs body.

Boom!

The feeling of crushing a body didnʼt happen. Like a ghost, Alex appeared above the monster his leg raised high before striking the monsterʼs head with all his strength.

Bang!

Boom!

The timing of this attack was exceptionally ingenious as it caught the Demonic Ice Ape on unstable footing. Even though Alexʼs strength was weak compared to the huge Ape, this all-out attack shouldnʼt be belittled. Due to that reason, the defenseless Demonic Ice Ape who suffered from the attack couldnʼt maintain its balance.

Its huge body couldnʼt help but sway, before crumbling into the lake head-first and setting off tall currents that rushed in the stream.

Alex who successfully landed this attack had no intention to seal the deal at all. After witnessing countless bubbles emerging on the surface of the lake, he displayed a subtle smile and shuttled across the forest swiftly to hide and watch the show that was about to happen.

Upon realizing that its prey had escaped, the Demonic Ice Ape was unable to restrain its anger. It rolled over, stood to its feet, and stomped toward the shore in large strides. But this time, it didnʼt succeed because the peaceful water surged all of a sudden. Shortly after, a dozen, thick water tentacles broke out of the water surface and bound the creature.

The lake started to roll, separate, a gigantic snake opened its mouth, countless razor-sharp teeth could be seen. The gigantic snake launched an attack on the Demonic Ice Ape.
