My Last Hunt - Chapter 357
Level Battles 31
Why you behind them all?
It was near evening. They all were rushing. After second warning Lam increased its pace and informed master about the reluctant hunter. Qiao nodded and slowed down. He looked behind and sure enough one of the hunters at the far edges not able to join others.
He critically observed and came to know that the hunter can rush faster however something bothering him seriously. “Let’s see what is it?” Qiao uttered. Other hunters also stopped seeing that the team leader’s expressions were not encouraging. They stopped and followed the eyes of the team leader and saw the slow hunter.
He was far behind from them all. Despite that they stopped he was still on some distance. The hunter noticed that the team members and the team leader stopped. He looked around but it was not the place where they were heading, it means they were still in the middle observing this he creased his brows.
Nearing them he noticed the displeased expressions pasted on the face of the team leader. “You were far behind from us. Are you injured?” Qiao asked as soon as the hunter reached them. The hunter indifferently answered, “This is my fastest pace possible. I cannot rush faster than this. If you are stubborn to force me then I will leave the team.” The hunter was sure that this team leader would get mad at him.
He was ready whatever step the team leader took he would deny to follow. “Do you know your reluctance might fail the mission?” Qiao asked last question. Until now no one can tell what would be the end reaction of the team leader.
“I don’t care if the mission fail or not. I want to see you get humiliated by the elders since you are bragging by bringing this monster with you.” The hunter shook his shoulders as he really did not care. Qiao stepped ahead and slapped the hunter. The hunter crashed against the nearest tree trunk with the impact and fell. The slap was so much intense and overbearing.
Probably jawbone broke because they heard the crushing sound. Others stepped back seeing the team leader standing silent after slapping. Qiao was looking at the hunter. In just one slap the hunter tasted the sourness of hell and pain of death. His left side ear lost hearing and jawbone broke in smithereens.
Bells were ringing in his head and he was unable to tell whether it was day or night. He tried to feel the cheeks but the taste of blood reminded the slap. Qiao knew what wonders this hunter was going through after his slap so he thought to wait till he got his senses back.
The team members pitied the condition of the hunter. They got sliver of notion about the strength of the team leader this way. The hunter stood up finally, his hand placed on his cheeks. He wanted to say that he has no qualm nonetheless it was blood chilling to speak with broken jaw. “We will begin our journey.” Qiao plainly uttered and did not look at the hunter for assurance.
The hunter hurriedly joined and this time he was far ahead from other team members. They saw and muffled their laughter. Qiao resumed his journey after taking a look at the map. They were rushing from the uneven grounds and it slowed down them a bit nonetheless Qiao calculated how much time he needed for the journey.
The native team members were afraid however they were extremely tired. They never had forced to use the utmost strength for this skill. This team leader seemed no more hunter because he was far ahead.
From his behavior he was well versed with this type of end level use of skill. Their muscles of the thighs were tearing apart. “You are not human but we are.” One of the affiliated hunters shouted his lungs out so that team leader could hear.
Qiao heard and slowed down. They were near the periphery of the second island. It was dull dark evening with the dim light falling from the sky. The team members finally let go and fell on the ground. Qiao was shocked to see this. Apparently they were not attacked by any sudden stone attack.
“Team leader we never used this skill to the extent of strength.” A hunter almost cried and complained. He tore apart clothing from his thigh and showed streaks of blood. Qiao walked forward. It was unimaginable for him. He had been using same skill with the same way but never his body refused to bear with it.
Perhaps the difference was clear. He had been tempering his body strictly with the tough practice. Now he understood why the elder was worried. Rushing between six islands; killing the intruding beasts and saving the towns other than the protection of the Nest, all these parts of missions were not tough nevertheless handling pampered hunters was going to be tough.
“I seriously need to fork a perfect plan for this mission else no one can save me from failure.” Qiao murmured. He could not imagine the scenario at the time if the beasts attacked and the monsters got baffled. How these pampered hunters could save the towns?
“Lam it is time for you to level up. Do not let go any beast and treat yourself as much as you want.” Qiao talked with the loyal buddy which was not human but monster. Lam lowered its head. Since the master gave chance then it was ready to level up and be helpful better way.
After it crossed present level then it strong wings would appear that had been hidden under the skin. Its present body would go through numerous changes as well as the stature size. Lam understood why it was necessary and the master ordered.
The mission was dangerous and the team members were not competent. They could just follow few orders. “Heal these injuries and then follow at your feasible pace.” Qiao could no more let them ranting.
