The Dark King - Chapter 219

Chapter 219

Woosh!

The arrow shot through the horned skeleton's neck . It cut a bit of flesh and passed out from the back and hit the rubble .

Dudian's eyes shrank as he quickly pulled out the fifth arrow .

Horned skeleton stood up . The fifth arrow hit its chest . The force was so strong that horned skeleton's body stepped back before it could stabilize its . It pulled out the arrow and its scarlet red eyes focused on Dudian . It stared at Dudian as if a snake was staring at frog . The next moment its feet pushed the ground and it rushed at Dudian .

Dudian's face turned ugly . The speed of this horned skeleton was faster than the previous variant skeleton . He quickly pulled out the sixth arrow and waited until horned skeleton reached 100 meters range . Dudian firmly locked onto it and released the string .

The arrow shot past as fast as a meteor .

Dudian didn't looked at the result but turned and ran in hurry .

The horned skeleton roared in anger and raised its hand to pull out the arrow . The wound that the arrow created had dark silverish fluid flowing out . It was the result of hot mercury spewing out .

He ran at full speed for 100 meters before turning around to glance at horned skeleton . He pulled the string and made another shot .

Although the shot was made in hurry but didn't deviate . Because of his long time practice of 100 meter shots he was able to hit the target without problem . However, Dudian was still not able to hit the horned skeleton's eyes . Instead the arrow had pierced close to the previous injury .

Horned skeleton howled, pulled out the arrow and shot after him .

Dudian didn't give the chance to horned skeleton to move .

He made consecutive shots one after another . The horned skeleton began to move slowly because of the number of silver arrows shot onto its body had affected it . Dudian once again opened the distance as he turned away to run . After a few minutes he turned around to repeat the process . One arrow after another pierced horned skeleton's body . It didn't take long before it stopped moving and threw itself onto ground .

Dudian was relieved as he saw the horned skeleton fall down . His armor was soaked in cold sweat . Fortunately he had arrows mixed with mercury . If he had relied on normal iron arrows most probably he would be dead long ago .

"I have twelve more mercury arrows . " Dudian counted the silver arrows in the quiver . He would still be able to continue hunting .

He approached and decreased the distance between himself and the horned skeleton's body . He used iron arrows to shoot at it . He was assured to see that there was no response . Afterwards he came over and squatted down to cut off its neck .

Kacha! The dagger got stuck .

After continuous effort he was able to cut off its head .

Dudian was not in rush to dissect its head . So inch by inch he cut off its neck to look at the body structure of horned skeleton . It's aorta was more complete . Moreover in its throat there were black blood vessels which were as thick as a finger . He cut the skull but tried to not to fracture those black blood vessels .

He shrugged up those black blood vessels . Dudian was surprised to see that those black blood vessels were connected to fangs in horned skeleton's mouth .

There were small, subtle holes in those fangs and insides were empty .

"Vampire teeth?" Dudian couldn't help but think of the scene where horned skeleton was sucking giant rat's blood off . It seems that the horned skeleton was using these fangs to do the bidding .

Dudian used the dagger to slice off its belly . A rich rancid smell exuded from the body of the dead horned skeleton . All the organs within the abdomen were frozen . There was no stomach but a mass of dark stenchy mucus .

Dudian felt nauseus as this pungent smell hit his nose . He carried the horned skeleton's head few meters away . Dudian looked at its horn raising from horned skeleton's forehead . It was sharp and had a small angle to its shape . It was similar to the horn of the rhinoceros .

Dudian used the dagger to slice off the skin from the forehead . Surprisingly the horn was directly connected to he skull and grew out form there . He didn't know how it was possible for such a change occur . The thing he was aware of that if he let the horned skeleton to continue to evolve then it was going to become a very big headache .

Dudian pondered a bit on the issue but recovered his thoughts . It didn't take long before he was able to take out the cold crystal from horned skeleton's intracranial tissue . The color of the cold crystal was dark blue . The density of the color was very pure and it was crystal clear .

The purity and the color of the cold crystal was much more cleaner than any cold crystal he had seen previously . He carefully put it into his armor and took out the other iron arrows . The sharp arrow tips had turned blunt which showed how hard the horned skeleton's skull was .

He put the arrows into the quiver and went over to pick the luggage that had materials from snake tailed crocodile . Afterwards he took the gunpowder box and was ready to leave the place . Suddenly, he sensed a very pale smell quietly approaching the location . It was about hundred meters away from the place he was standing .

His pupils shrank as he immediately clenched the bow . However Dudian't didn't dare to move his body . He didn't know what kind of existence could sneak this close to him without making him aware of its position . His eyes swiftly glanced around . His eyes focused on the grassy area where they had fight moment ago . The light smell was radiating off from there .

Dudian's heartbeat increased as blood rushed into his head . All the muscles in his body tightened . He knew that it was not an ordinary beast which could sneak so close without alerting him .

rustle!

The wind whipped the grass .

Dudian's heart startled as he looked at the grass slowly pushed open . A humanoid body that looked similar to a child walked out . Its body was only half a meter tall . Black scales had covered all of its body from top to bottom . Its hand and feet didn't have fingers but sharp claws . Its face had facial features similar to a human but there were no eyebrows . Its eyes were dark red . It looked up at Dudian but turned to the corpse of the horned skeleton that was on the lying ground .

Whoosh!

In a sudden flash it appeared by the side of horned skeleton's corpse . It was as if it teleported from one point to the other . At first sight the beast looked like a well-behaved child with small mouth . However the moment it closed onto horned skeleton's corpse its mouth opened in an incredible angle . It bit the flesh and blood from horned skeleton's corpse and began to chew it .

Dudian's face changed as he looked at this little black figure . : "Ghoul!"
