The Dark King - Chapter 213

Chapter 213

Dudian opened a bag and folded the gunpowder boxes so that it could protect them in case of a rain . He held onto two gunpowder boxes and gently stepped on the weeds as he walked into the ruins .

As there was no one to clean the roads the ground outside was full of grass . There were some places which were mud pits . Dudian was very careful as he made every step . In the absence of information and maps he could only rely on his own groping and gut-feeling . Other consortia would send a scout to sweep the unknown areas and gather intelligence .

After all, the hunters were limited in consortiums . Even if they sent seven or eight intermediate hunters they wouldn't be able to protect themselves from a herd of beasts .

Occasionally he would see some objects bulge in the grass . He knew that some places were not covered in stones but rotten bones of some monsters .

As he was carefully going through the grass he felt a very small rustling sound . It was as if the wind scratched . Chill rose up in his heart as he dropped the gunpowder boxes and turned back .

At the same time a slender green shadow jumped from the grass toward Dudian .

Dudian quickly pulled out his dagger and made a wave .

This slender green shadow was blocked by the dagger . It's body flashed as it disappeared into the bushes without a trace .

Dudian's face changed . Although he wasn't able to see the complete body of the beast but he was able to see something similar to snake's tail as it disappeared within the bushed . It had green scales which were extremely similar to the color of weeds . It was a bit bright colored . From the look it seemed to be a poisonous snake .

The most important thing was that he couldn't detect its odor .

"Fortunately its speed isn't very fast . It should not be a high level monster . " Dudian was glad as he secretly thought about the monster . He slowly moved the gunpowder box aside . He picked up gunpowder from the box and threw it over the bushes .

He inserted the dagger once more, picked out gunpowder and spilled the surrounding weeds . Suddenly smell of gunpowder emerged .

Dudian eyes were cold as he looked around the area . His nose quickly identified all the smell in the surroundings . Soon he sensed the smell of gunpowder slowly moving . He put back his dagger and took out his bow . He acted as fast as lightning . He pulled the string and shot the arrow towards the predetermined location in grass .

puff!

Suddenly violent waves began to surge within the grass .

The grass that was half a meter high suddenly split as a monster's body moved as if it was a sharp wind .

Dudian saw the body of a four or five meter long phyton quickly twist and move . An arrow had pierced into its body . Because of its bright green scales it was easy to confuse it with the grass .

Dudian aimed and went for the second shot .

puff!

The green scaled phython had swirled for 50 meters when the second arrow shot it behind its head and crucified it to the ground .

Dudian was relieved as he put back the bow and pulled out the dagger . He slowly walked over . The poisonous phyton's body wasn't able to move forward but its tail was still twisting around .

Dudian's attention was in the surrounding area to be sure that there was no other monster waiting for an opportunity to attack . Although he could smell most of the monsters but some of them were good at hiding and attacking as they knew how to cover their body odor .

Dudian cut off the low-level monster's head . It's fangs were highly toxic . The normal adult phython would be a level 12 beast but this one was something in between level four to six . It was slightly stronger than an undead .

Dudian squatted down as he pierced its body and quickly peeled its skin . Then he cuts its head and removed its fangs . He used tweezers to pick the fangs and put them into his storage bag .

Afterwards he rolled the snake's skin and put it away . He picked up two boxes of gunpowder and carefully continued forward . He sensed the smell of an undead .

There were weeds growing from the cracks of the asphalt . The street was in ruins . Dudian looked at a car covered in moss, staggered over the roadside . The smell of undead came over from the car . The moss and plants had crawled into car .

Dudian put away the gunpowder boxes and looked around . Even though he couldn't pinpoint the location of the undead by smell but his vision was good enough to see it . He took out box and arrow and aimed at car's driver seat . He rapidly pulled the string and made the shot .

Kacha! The sound of broken glass echoed out .

Although it was hard to see inside the car because of darkness but Dudian's vision was enhanced . He could clearly see the middle-aged undead seating at driver's position . It seemed to be in sleeping state . His arrow hit its throat but didn't kill it .

He once again made another shot .

The middle-aged undead was struggling to wake up but the second shot hit its head and it died on spot .

Dudian quickly stepped forward and pulled out the arrows . He cut and dissected the undead's head .

After the cold crystal was taken out the flesh and blood of the undead was affected by the temperature and it began to decay at a very slow rate .

Dudian pulled out the cold crystal and looked at his left hand . Because of the excessive absorption of the cold crystals last time his arm had lost the nerves to feel the pain . He didn't know if he should continue to absorb the crystals directly .

He thought about it for a time . He decided to absorb small amounts every time .

Although there was some risk in direct absorbtion of cold crystal but it was better than using 'blessings' as it promoted his strength much greaterly .

He used another clean dagger to make a small cut in his left hand . He put the cold crystal inside his palm . As if snow and water had met the crystal gradually melt and turned into liquid which infiltrated through the wound .

Dudian felt no difference as he made the slice because his left hand had lost consciousness . However he felt more vigorous as if the energy was powering up his body .

He was relieved . The left had stopped bleeding . However he turned to look back to see another undead slowly came out from the corner of the street . It seems that fragmentation of the glass had attracted the undead from another area . He pulled out his bow and an arrow . Dudian was about to shoot but suddenly his face slightly changed .

The body of the undead was extremely tall . Its height was about three meters . It had very long arms while its body was thing . It waist looked similar to a camels . He couldn't see its eyes as it seemed they were pure black . Moreover there was a large sickle which looked like shark's dorsal fin that raised from its palm to the elbow .

It seemed that undead was a young man but the skin on its skull was stretched out .

"A skeleton? No, a skeleton's body isn't so high and it shouldn't have a scythe . " Dudian's face slightly changed as he saw the beasts attention turn to him .

Distance was a weapon!

Whoosh!

The arrow flew out .

This enermous skeleton's face was expressionless . Puff! The arrow pierced its face as it shot into its cheek but got stock in the bones . It slowly raised its hand to seize the arrow . The monster pulled it out . Its body shook and it opened its mouth . The upper and lower jaw teared apart as if it belonged to a snake as its mouth made one hundred and eighty degree curve .
