Chapter 1491 Hunter (4)
The Alchemy Stores were looking for Calamity Mud Serpent’s poison gland while the Cladeos Emporium wanted the skin for both monsters. He summoned Avyn, the person with the most important role in his first-time Calamity Hunting. Along with Avyn, he also summoned the other spirits. All Archaic Spirits except for Zara who was still sleeping, one Mythical Spirit, and eight Grade SSS Spirits.
He then turned toward Avyn, “You can start.”
Avyn nodded and her body started to release the Frost Energy. She then slowly descended into the swamp. As soon as her feet touched the surface of the swamp. The swamp froze in an instant, and more than ten kilometers of swamp were frozen just like that.
Tang Shaoyang was aware that it was not enough just to freeze them. It did not kill them, but they were trapped. The plan was simple, they killed any Calamity that broke out from the frozen swamp. That way, they did not have to face the whole wave of Calamity.
He split the eight Grade SSS Spirits into two parties of four. Then they split out, covering the frozen swamp. The Archaic Spirit refused to form a group, they moved on their own, leaving Tang Shaoyang and the Mythical Spirit – Karoen the Void Knight.
Karoen stood behind Tang Shaoyang, closing his eyes. He opened his eyes in a few seconds, “I feel the movement no far from her, Your Majesty.”
Tang Shaoyang and Karoen moved together, and they found Calamity Mud Dragon. Its head popped out from the freezing swamp, breaking through while his body was still stuck. It wriggled its body, making its way to the surface.
Even though it was called a dragon, it was far from the dragon he knew. It was more like an alligator, but its legs were much longer. It was around two meters tall and reached ten meters long. Three blade-like horns on its head and its hide was made of something similar to steel. The hide was the material that people sought, and its horns also priced materials for the blacksmith.
The Calamity Mud Dragon noticed Tang Shaoyang, and it immediately spat two black fireballs from its mouth. Karoen opened the gate to the void and sent the fireball to the void. He then used Void Gate and appeared on top of the Calamity Mud Dragon. He swung the sword, trying to kill it with one swing.
Clang!
However, the sword was met with a high resistance and bounced back. Karoen was surprised and was about to try for the second time. But then The Calamity Mud Dragon’s tail caught him, coiling around his body. That was right, the tail was so flexible that it managed to reach its back with its tail. As it was about to smash Karoen down, a sword flashed, cutting through Calamity Mud Dragon’s head.
Its head plopped down as blood poured up. Karoen failed to recover as his body slammed into the hard surface of the frozen swamp. Tang Shaoyang put the body into his inventory along with its head, “Haven’t you learned from Afi’s experience? Don’t underestimate this calamity, Karoen.”
Karoen got up and bowed his head toward Tang Shaoyang, “I apologize, Your Majesty. I don’t really expect its tail to reach me.”
Between several moves that he imagined in his head, he never thought its tail could reach him. The tail looked stiff, and yet it could bend in a hundred and eighty degrees.
Soon they felt another vibration from nearby. Both moved and another Calamity Mud Dragon tried to get out. Karoen made his move even before The Calamity Mud Dragon managed to get out. The Void Knight’s sword pierced through the Calamity Mud Dragon’s snout and pulled it out. He pulled out the Calamity Mud Dragon into the air. At the same time, Karoen prepared spikes made of Void Energy at the spot where it would land.
The Calamity Mud Dragon landed on the spikes, and the spikes pierced through its body. From the belly to the back, trapping The Calamity Mud Dragon once more. Then he finished it off by cutting the head with one slash. The second hunt was more smooth than the first one, but the result was not great.
Tang Shaoyang came over and checked the prey. The condition was horrible, the hide was damaged. That damage would decrease the value of the hide. He understood that basic knowledge after hunting a few calamities in the last four days, “We are going to sell the hide, so refrain from damaging the hide. If you have the chance, aim the head right away. And also don’t destroy the horn as well.”
Karoen blinked his eyes a few times, realizing he made a mistake again. He had the chance to cut its head in one strike. But he decided to pull it out from the ice before severing the head.
Tang Shaoyang was not mad or anything. He understood from Karoen’s perspective. His spirit was not a hunter, but a knight. The way of a knight fighting was completely different than a hunter fighting. He stored the body for the second prey, “Since you can kill them without my help, let’s split up. But remember, if you have the chance to kill it without damaging the hide then do so. If you can’t, then don’t force it.”
Karoen bowed his head, “Yes, Your Majesty.” As he said that, he sensed a vibration from another place.
“Go. I will stay here.”
Hearing the order, The Void Knight headed toward the vibration.
“This is much easier than fighting them in the swamp,” Tang Shaoyang recalled his fight against The Calamity Mud Dragon.
It was not easy to fight them in the swamp. They were much faster in the water. But with Avyn’s help, Calamity Mud Dragon no longer had the advantage. Not only did the frost aura make their movement stiff, but they were much slower if they were not in the water. That made them an easy target. Through Chaos Eyes, he could see dozens of Calamity Mud Dragons underneath him. And more than five hundred in the swamp.
That was right, by freezing the water, the Calamity Mud Dragon could not gang up on him anymore. Two days ago, after he killed one, dozens of them came at him together. That was what made them harder to hunt than the other Rank 2 Calamity.
