Dudian finally saw the appearance of mountain lion while they chased after it from close by. It was three to four meters tall. Its body was strongly build. However, it had three forelimb joints. Instead of walking like a usual lion it clinged to the ground like a spider and quickly crawled.
An arrow had hit into its body and was giving the mountain lion a sever pain.
Dudian and others had smeared undead powder onto their bodies so they were not afraid of revealing their whereabouts. They were not getting to close to it but following about hundred meters away.
“In front.” Dudian was running while sensing the smells of other predators within the range. If any beast came into the range of twenty miles he would alert them about its position.
“Position?”
“Eleven o’clock.”
Glenn raised her hand and made a gesture.
Gatt who was running by them disappeared the moment Glenn waved her hand.
A moment later, Gatt appeared: “It’s only a ‘blood beast’.”
“Do not bother,” Glenn replied.
When the mountain lion would get tired of running and wanted to stop, the archer will pull the bowstring and made a few shots. Precise arrows made the mountain lion move instead of staying fixed on a position.
Occasionally few level seven and eight monster tried to attack their group. Because of the vial used by them most of the monsters identified them as undeads. Although most of the beasts had no interest in eating undeads but some beasts under the level of 10 preferred to eat undeads once in awhile.
However, because of Dudian’s sense of smell and the other hunter’s ultra hearing these hidden monster were always found early and shot on spot. Most of the time, Glenn was to act as she resolved the fighting in a matter of few seconds and easily beheading them.
Although mountain lion was cruel but because of suffering from a sudden attack. Once in awhile it would run around to attack the ‘undeads’ that were following it. It wanted to vent its anger by killing the ‘undeads’ however this reaction of mountain lion was already expected the Glenn and Dudian. Members in the team would scatter around to avoid the mountain lion. The plan was still in progress.
In about two hours, the group also consumed most of their stamina so they didn’t stimulate the mountain lion. As it stopped to rest, they too found place for rest.
“Wouldn’t such movements would scare away the black weaver?”A youth drinking water asked.
“Will you be scared of your food?”
The young man almost choked.
Dudian took the bottle of water given by Glenn. He thought that her mouth has touched the bottle while drinking and his heart didn’t feel very comfortable with it. So he used his hand to quietly wipe the bottle and then emptied the water.
Glenn who observed this scene, sneered but didn’t say anything.
As Dudian finished the bottle of water and was about to lean on a wall to rest, his body pores shrank. A strange smell of stench was approaching from about thirty miles away.
It was the same smell as he sensed from the carapace given to him at the beginning!
It had finally appeared!
Dudian was delighted as they would be able to complete the mission earlier than usual. He would be able to back to training as soon as possible. In this perilous area no 1 anything may happen as there were no limit to scary and terrorizing mutations that he saw.
He didn’t immediately say anything but quietly waited.
Soon, when black weaver’s smell was close to twenty-five miles or so, the smell suddenly faded away. It was as if its body disappeared.
Dudian was startled a bit in doubt.
“What?” Glenn looked to him.
Dudian saw her looking at him but said: “Nothing.”
Glenn didn’t say anything instead sat down to take a rest. Her eyes fell on the body of mountain lion which was crouched far away.
A few minutes later Dudian smelled the previous black weaver appear again! However the location of appearance was eight miles away. The smell was very light. It seemed that black weaver was desperate to restraint its stench as not to scare away the mountain lion. If it was not so close, he wouldn’t be able to smell.
“Its approaching … … good speed… its fast… very quick!” Dudian mind spoke out to Glenn: “It appeared around seven miles from here…no, maybe even closer!”
Glenn and the other five were shocked. Gatt anxiously said: “Didn’t you say that your detection range is twenty miles?”
Dudian frowned: “It’s twenty miles but most probably black weaver had used some kind of method to hite its smell. It suddenly appeared seven or eight miles away!”
“Get ready! Quick!” Glenn quickly said: “Black weaver likes to sneak attack from the underground. It’s good enough that Dean can smell it. Gatt you protect Dead at all times!”
Gatt and the other four reacted immediately. They also thought about the previous team where three hunters were killed by black weaver’s sneak attack. They knew that its abilities were beyond their imagination.
All of them pulled out their weapons in alert.
Glenn stared at the distant mountain lion: “Kill it at all costs! Its best not to make any mistakes at the last second.”
“Yes.” Gatt whose face slightly changed immediately replied.
At this time, Dudian sensed the black weaver’s smell again. He hurriedly said: “Four o’clock direction. It’s about to appear! About two miles or so”
Glenn’s fingers stroke the black daggers in her legs. She said in a low tone: “Get ready!”
The mountain lion as if aware of something stopped and turned around. It roared as if trying to intimidate. Puff! Suddenly a sharp black claw bursted out from under the ground and grabbed its body and pulled it.
Thump!
It’s liver, other organs even the intestine and the other blood vessels fall out. A lot of blood washed out.
“ARGHH!” Mountain lions angrily roared and twisted its limbs in struggle. But it was like mountain lion was hedged in a cage so its struggles didn’t amount to anything.
One after another, two or three meter long sharp thorns burst out of the ground and flew towards the mountain lion’s body.
Whosh!
A ghost-like shadow went past.
It was Glenn.
In the next moment she was close to mountain lion’s body. Dudian didn’t see when but she had pulled out her daggers. A silver reflection flashed in the air and one of the sharp black thorn suddenly was cut. A light green liquid, which seemed like black weaver’s blood, gurgled.
