Armipotent

Chapter 1494  Hunter (7)

Calamity Starrek was an intelligent creature. That was what Tang Shaoyang learned about them from testing directly two days ago, and even his source information, Manoe told him so. If Calamity Starrek knew that they could not win or even defeat their enemy within a minute to three minutes, they would escape.

The only chance to kill them was when they first attacked. That was when they lowered their guard because they did not have information on him. As the thirty-nine Calamity Starrekʼs head stuck to the ground, Avyn made her move. She froze all of Starrek on the ground with her Frost Aura.

It was followed by Tang Shaoyangʼs Chaos Blade. Thirty-nine Chaos Blades formed above and immediately struck the designated target. The blade pierced through their neck and killed them. But not all blades hit the target. In that short amount of time, eleven Calamity Starrek broke free from Avynʼs ice. Not only did they break free, but they managed to adjust to the gravity as well.

But Tang Shaoyang was prepared for this. Vandir made his move as ghostly hands came out from the ground, catching the eleven Calamity Starrek and pinning them to the ground once more. The Chaos Blade moved and cut their next move this time. With just a simple plan, Tang Shaoyang managed to kill thirty-nine Rank 2 Calamity.

”That was smooth. If Zara was here, we donʼt need the second control,” The tactic was involved with Zara. But she was not here thanks to Oby who tricked him into eating aphrodisiac in the disguise of food.

Thirty-nine Calamity Starrek were stored in the inventory. Their feathers and beaks were in perfect condition. They would be valued high in the trade, and he might get everything he wanted in three days as promised.

”Can you just increase the gravity if they manage to break free?” Vandir asked. He did not like his role in this tactic. Known as a Death King, his role was so trivial, and he did not like it.

”Just bear with it for a few days, Vandir. If I use too much force, it will ruin the feathers. A few more days, get the item I want, then we can start killing the Calamity,” Tang Shaoyang sensed the annoyance from the skeleton, ”And remember, we are now a hunter. We must keep the goods in good condition.” He winked at the skeleton.

Of course, Tang Shaoyang knew why the skeleton, who was usually calm, was annoyed. It was because Vandir got no chance to use his new thing. The Death King wanted to try his new creation but had no chance to do so yet.

 After harvesting the body of Calamity Starrek, the group moved on, looking for another group of Calamity Starrek. In the last few days, he realized that the low-ranked Calamity was similar to the monster with ranks. He had a better understanding of calamity which gave him confidence that he would at least reach the top ten in the ranking.

It did not take long for Tang Shaoyang to find the second group of Calamity Starrek. The tactic worked wonderfully. The second group comprised twenty-one Starrek. Much less compared to the first group, and this hunt should be easier.

As soon as Tang Shaoyang got closer to the tree, the Starrek dispersed to the sky. It flew around the sky, eyeing Tang Shaoyang who remained on the ground. The same as the first group, the Calamity Starrek lurched together, side by side. The sudden gravity increase caused the group to dive to the ground.

Avyn immediately froze the Starrek on the ground, and Tang Shaoyang finished them off with the Slayer Blade. Since it was just twenty-one Starrek, he managed to kill them all before they could break free from Avynʼs ice.

”Itʼs going smoothly. The target is one hundred and fifty, and we have sixty already. Four or maybe five more groups, and we will change the next target.” Tang Shaoyang happily gathered his loot.

It took Tang Shaoyang another three hours to hunt five more groups of Calamity Starrek. He checked the inventory, and he had a hundred and sixty-six of Calamity Starrek. That was more than enough for what the Cladeos Emporium asked for.

”Whatʼs next?” Vandir asked.

Before Tang Shaoyang could answer him, he heard the voice in his head.

[Summon me to you!]

That was Zaraʼs voice. The former angel just woke up from her voice, and her voice sounded sulky for some reason.

”Are you sure? Donʼt you want to sleep more? We are doing fine right now.”

[No! I have enough sleep!]

Tang Shaoyang recalled Zara and summoned her. The former angel took a form in front of him, back wearing her usual dark-violet outfit.

”We just finished hunting Calamity Starrek. Do you want to have breakfast?” He asked, guilty for what happened last night. That was quite a crazy night with so little rest in between rounds. He just used to do it with at least two or three of his wives.

”I donʼt mind a cup of coffee.”

Tang Shaoyang had a lot of those from Oby. They set up a camp for a quick meal. He opened the lunch box made by Elin. Elin prepared a lot of lunch boxes, and he was gladly taking them with him. It was stupid to refuse good food.

”Whatʼs the next target?” Zara asked after finishing the cup of coffee. She was quite embarrassed because the only one overslept while everyone was working.

”We should not be far from the Calamity Doom Lizardʼs area. We can go for them. The alchemist wanted their hearts and eyes. The scales can be sold to Duvrag as well.” That was his second prey of the day.

Doom Lizard was a black-scaled lizard. They did not move in a group, but they were not alone. They always found them in a pair or three with a maximum of four in a group.

The Calamity Doom Lizard was three meters long on average with the longest so far being six meters. They did not wander around on the ground but jumped from one tree to another. It was quite hard to find them because of their camouflage ability, but it was not that hard for Tang Shaoyang who had Chaos Eyes.

The party entered a new forest. He named this area a black forest with the reason because all the trees were black. Not just the trunks, but also the leaves and the roots that came out from the ground. The thick branch was the perfect place for the Calamity Doom Lizard to wander around.

”We need around five hundred hearts as well as two thousand eyes. Prioritize their hearts and eyes.”
