Chapter 37: Chapter 37- Heading Deeper
Previously there were five demonic beats, this time there were more than seven and they were all stronger than the Crimson Jackals.
What’s more, the numbers of the Demonic Beasts didn’t just stop there, more and more came rushing out from the depths of the forest. This was truly a demonic beast stampede.
“What is going on, why are these demonic beasts rushing at us all at once”.
Zhang Zhan and members of the Zhang clan that he brought with him weren’t the only ones who were facing demonic beasts attacking their camp in the middle of the night. Several other hunter teams who unfortunately happened to be around the area, were also caught up in the middle of it.
The night around these parts of the jungle was bound to be a noisy one today. Primitive howls and wild roars of the demonic beasts echoed out from various parts of the forest, clouds of dust rose and fire broke everywhere.
Yang Chen standing on top of a small hill, was watching the chaotic scene with a grin on his face. A chain of notifications continuously sounded inside his head.
His eyes moved towards the window suspended in front of him and an excitement like never before engulfed his body.
[Ding… you have committed a mischief 50 points awarded]…
[Ding… you have committed a mischief 75 points awarded]…
[Ding…you have committed a mischief 100 points awarded]…
[…50 points awarded]..
[…75 points awarded]…
[+100]…
They were endless and continued to buzz inside his head for quite some time. Whenever any hunter or demonic beast died or was injured, he would receive some mischief points.
Although he did not receive any experience from that, Yang Chen was quite happy to see his mischief points go up slowly.
“I must admit, that was a brilliant plan” Amon remarked looking at the chaos that was ongoing below.
“Right… this is much more efficient than committing mischief one by one” Yang Chen agreed.
The reason why he was receiving mischief points for kills and actions he didn’t commit directly, was because he was the reason behind the unrest of the demonic beast. The numerous empty pouch on the ground next to him which once contained the powder of hysteria, was proof of that.
The brilliant plan that he came up with was very simple, rather than using the powder of hysteria on the hunters, he used them on the demonic beasts.
It was difficult for him to get close to a hunter camp without being noticed by them. So instead he sneaked inside the lair of demonic beasts and sprinkled the powder of hysteria before scurrying out of there.
Of course, the beasts did follow him in anger; however, the effects of the powder soon took effect and they went into a state of berserk.
That being said, he couldn’t have executed his plan so splendidly without the knowledge of the jungle that he had accumulated over the time while hunting the demonic beasts.
Thanks to the powder of hysteria, the demonic beasts were sent into a frenzy and started rampaging around in the middle of the night. This caused a chain of effect which was the Demonic Beast Stampede
The hunters were simply caught in between the demonic beasts who were under the effects of the powder of hysteria and those that were trying to run away.
The fight between the hunters and the demonic beats was indirectly caused by him as such, his actions spiralled into a mischievous act that was recognised by the system thus giving him mischief points.
“It really makes you wonder how far the lines can be stretched”
Yang Chen muttered under his breath. Even indirect actions like these are counted as an evil act that was committed by him. What other ways were there and how far could he go with these indirect actions?
Would it still give him points if a small action from him spiralled to an even bigger area with more people? would it be like the Domino effect?
“Hehe, I told you already… this isn’t a game. The system has become real and it is a part of you. every action that you commit whether direct or indirect, if the system judges it as mischievous or evil you will earn points”.
“Anyways, what will you do now? You have already created a huge ruckus within the jungle through that action of yours and achieved your goal” Amon inquired.
“I will… dive deeper inside the jungle and hunt stronger demonic beasts to increase my level” Yang Chen mused for a second before making up his mind.
Earning mischief points was important; however, the most important thing was his personal strength. In fact, he was earning mischief points, so that he can buy stuff from the shop that can boost his strength.
Apart from that, with him now killing even the third son of the patriarch of the Zhang clan, he was pressed even more urgently than before to gain strength.
Yang Chen might have spent half of his previous life in the hospital. But he had seen the seen and faced the ugly truth of being powerless. The relatives who were once nice to him, after the demise of his parents showed their true faces.
They were after the fortune that his father left and were shameless enough to even plot a plan to kill him. Yang Chen was sure that the malfunctioning of his headgear which ultimately caused his death in his previous life, was due to those relatives of his. Gẹtt the l𝒂test 𝒏𝒐v𝒆ls at 𝒏.o/(v)/e/l/bi𝒏(.)co𝒎
Knowing that, Yang Chen wasn’t going to let his guard down ever in this life. He wasn’t na?ve enough to think that the Zhang clan wouldn’t retaliate. They would some way or the other find that the culprit behind all those murders was him.
If he ever got caught, his life would be beyond miserable. Just thinking about it made Yang Chen’s heart go cold. Thus he decided to gain strength no matter what and to achieve that, he would do anything.
Even resort to all kinds of unfair acts if he must. Fortunately for him, he was even rewarded for such acts thanks to the Greedvil system.
