The Dark King - Chapter 288

Chapter 288

Whoosh!

Sounds of winds whistled in Dudian's ears as he sprinted . He climbed the hill and passed over . He was concentrated on the smell as he chased . He saw weeds along the way which had blood spilled and scattered on them . He didn't know whether the blood belonged to Scar or the unknown monster .

His eyes were gloomy as he clenched his fists . He passed through the bushes where he saw bunch of giant monster bones and collapsed buildings buried under the ruins . He was getting close to the smell of Scar and the monster as their odors became more thicker . He heart was cold . He increased his speed as he chased over .

In about seven or eight minutes Dudian finally saw shadow which was about four or five meters tall . It was jumping from one place to the other . It looked like a wolf but there were no hair on its body . Instead it was covered with green skin like scales . There were black spots all over its body . There was a cluster of sharp hair on its head which looked like needles . It limbs were thick while its tail was long and thing . It was a like a rope which extended from its buttocks .

Although Dudian was looking at it from the back but he was able to see that there was a thing dangling from its mouth . The two arms shook up and swayed as the monster moved .

Scar!

Dudian's eyes shrank as killing intent filled him . He took the bow and aimed at the upper body of the running monster .

Whoosh!

The arrow jerked and pierced its buttocks where the tail was connected .

The monster jumped up for few meters because of the pain . It stopped in front of the grasses and immediately turned towards Dudian . Dudian saw that Scar was unconscious and grabbed by his shoulder . His head was shaking as the monster held onto him .

Anger gushed in his heart as Dudian saw Scar . He also recognized the monster . It was called spotted dog which lived in jungles . They lived in small groups . The spotted dogs were extremely cunning kind of monsters . The stereotype of foxes from the old era applied to them .

Even though the spotted dog was cunning but its level was not high . At adult stage it only reahed level fourteen . It would be capable of fighting against intermediate level hunters .

A growl came out of spotted dog's mouth while it tightly bit Scar . It showed hostility against Dudian .

Dudian didn't have patience to play hunting games with it so he quickly aimed and shot .

However the spotted dog didn't jump to avoid but instead used its head . Puff! Puff! The arrows pierced Scar's legs and body .

Dudian's blood boiled and anger burst out of him as he saw the ecene . He put away the bow and pulled out the dagger from the waist . He rushed over .

The spotted dog loosened its mouth and threw Scar onto the ground . It's limbs bent down as its posture changed .

Dudian saw that spotted dog was planning to attack him so he prepared for defense . There were about six meters of distance between them when the spotted dog jumped .

Dudian instantly changed into a defense posture and raised his dagger to pierce its abdomen . However the next moment spotted dog's limbs turned as it used its long tail to sweep attack . It used its tail as whipe and took advantage of the moment . A loud whistle resounded as it swing its tail .

Dudian's pupils shrank as he bent over in hurry to avoid the attack .

Whooosh! The beast's tail swept over the bushes close by . The weeds were cut off as if a blade was used to mow the lawn .

Dudian pedalled with his feet and sprang towards spotted dog . He stabbed the dagger towards the neck of the monster .

The monster didn't seem to think that its attack wouldn't success . Neverthless, it's response was not slow as it tried to jump to avoid Dudian's attack . But was it wasn't enough to fully cover its body . Dudian saw that he wouldn't be able to pierce its neck so he stabbed the dagger on the scales on spotted dog's chest .

The spotted dog retreated .

"Die!" Dudian roared loudly as he sent a punch towards its head . At te same time he stabbed the dagger once more .

The scales on spotted dog's chest seemed soft but were amazingly tought . Nevertheless, Dudian stabbed the dagger up to its handle .

The spotted dog screamed loudly because of pain . It's limb violently strugged and its large body caused chaos . Dudian couldn't grasp onto its smooth body . A bit of distance was created and the spotted dog used the opportunity to run away .

Dudian wanted to catch up but suddenly though of Scar . His body abruptly stopped as he returned back . He saw that Scar was lying over the weeds as pale as a white paper . It looked like he was in a come but his condition was bad . The spotted dog had bitten onto his carotid arteries .

Dudian's eyes shrank as he clenched his fist and slowly squatted down . His hand reached onto Scar's chest and he didn't feel heart beats . The huge bite of the spotted dog had almost covered half of Scar's neck . It seemed like his neck would fall of anytime . It was obvious that he was not alive .

Kaka ~!

Dudian's fingers cracked his clenched his fist . He was self-blaming himself . Dudian didn't expect that he would lose a person in their first expedition . Although it was very dangerous outside the giant wall but he had underestimated the sinister and cunning living environment . His sense of smell, perception and visual aids were much more overpowered in comparison to his team mates . He didn't think of them .

He knew that Scar and Jin were ready to follow after him after being bailed out . They trusted him but such a thing happened at the first time they went out of the giant wall .

Dudian bit his lips as he picked up Scar's body .

The next moment he slightly sniffed . His face changed as killing intent poured into his eyes .

He slowly put Scar's body on the ground .

Dudian pulled out dagger from his leggings and tightly stared at the grass behind him .

Shshsh ~ ~!

Eight figures rushed out of the bushes . All of them were spotted dogs!

The previous spotted dog stabbed by Dudian was standing in the middle . It's bleeding had stopped . At the moment its pair of dark red eyes were staring at Dudian coldly, full of anger and grim .

Dudian's eyes swept over eight spotted dogs . The cold blood in his body began to boil . He was like a madman who was after revenge . He knew that he would be seriously injured at the end or maybe even die but he was going to avenge Scar . He thought about the prison life . Once the Scar had told him in a mocking manner about his dream of hunter days: "In the past I hoped that after death someone can give me a proper burial . I wanted to be buried as a normal person within the wall instead of my body stuck in the wilderness . I didn't want to be fed to those beasts . Now, in prison my mind is at peace about that . . . "

Dudian didn't forget those words and Scar's facial expression even after years .

He had brought him out and Scar was dead now . He would take his body back at all costs!

It was the only thought in his mind at the moment . He was angry . The flames of anger had affected his usual calm judgement .

The eight spotted dogs didn't attack head on but scattered around Dudian . In a matter of seconds they had surrounded Dudian in a circle . It was their hunting habit .

The spotted dogs began to snarl after the encirclement was finished . It was like a wolf was roaring .

Dudian clenched his dagger as he stared at the spotted dog which had killed Scar .

Nevertheless, the next moment the spotted dogs stopped roaring . Instead it seemed that they had detected something else .

Dudian frowned as he sniffed the air . There was a very light smell close to their location . Is it another monster?

All eight of them suddenly turned to look to the left . It seemed that they had perceived something . The circle which they had formed disintegrated the next moment . They began to run away .

Dudian's face was gloomy . He didn't know what kind of monster could make those eight cunning spotted dogs to directly run away . He put away the dagger as he thought that it would be a level 20 monster which he could ran away . He picked up Scar's body and was about to run when a shadow shot out from the bushes as if it was a missile . It stood about ten meters away from him .

Dudian was taken back as he saw the giant shadow . He almost dropped Scar's corpse because of fear . It was an extremely strange monster which looked like a giant mantis . However it didn't stood upright as a mantis but like a group of twisted seagrass . All parts of its body had shape of scythes . From the appearance alone it could be observed that it was a high level predator .

Dudian's mind buzzed and went blank as he saw the monster . Although it was the first time that it had met it but he had a very deep impression of this monster . It was clearly described in the atlas . It was one of the eight legendary monsters . Actually it was the monster which was at the top of the records!

It was called 'Splitter'!

An adult splitter was a level 68 monster!
