Chapter 284

Gwyneth’s cheeks had gone pale because of frightened state she was in as she ran in front. She didn’t look back at the monsters but looked up at Dudian who was on the hill. There were doubts and curiosity in her mind about Dudian’s plan. Moreover she wanted to see how he was going to use that strange weapon to fight. However she didn’t expect to see the unfogettable horror scene.

Dudian didn’t falter but quickly stuffed the second shell into the cannon. He lit the lead, aimed at the first mutated crocodile and shot again.

Boom!

The smoke burst out of the muzzle of cannon.

Dudian had mastered the usage of cannon after the first missed shot. The second shot hit the first mutated crocodile.

The mutated crocodile was about to chase after Gwyneth when the second shell fell from the sky and hit its neck. Although its neck was protected by the hard armored skin but the shell had successfully hit it and damaged. Crocodile’s body twitched in pain as it slowly tried to climb up. The blood oozed out from its body.

Dudian pulled arrows which he had prepared in advance. There were two quivers full of arrows close to cannon. One of them was high quality iron arrows while the other quiver was full of arrows with mercury heads. He used the arrows with mercury to shoot at mutated crocodile’s eyes. There was about one hundred and fifty meters distance between them and Dudian’s precisely aimed at his target.

Puff! The arrow pierced the mutated crocodile. It began to howl and shake its head in pain.

Gwyneth was relieved as she saw the first crocodile to be injured but when her eyes fell onto the body of the third crocodile whe panicked again. This one wasn’t injured and it was about to ran after her.

Whoosh!

Gwyneth turned around and began to run around the hill. She was afraid that the moment she went away the crocodile would be out of Dudian’s shooting range. In that case she would have to fight the crocodile by herself.

Dudian aimed the arrow and shot.

Bang!

The arrow couldn’t pierce through the armor of the crocodile.

Dudian continued to shoot without stopping.

One after another arrows were hitting the crocodile’s body. Finally, one of them pierced the crocodile’s eye. It began to roar and grimace in pain.

All of them sighed in relief after spectating the scene. However a burst of shrill screams echoed out form the distant grasses. Gwyneth, Scar and Jin were startled as they listened to the roar that seemed to belong to a mutated crocodile.

Dudian looked at the bushes as he thought of the previous monster that smelled like the soil of the earth. There was a little different between that odor and the smell of earth. At the moment this odor was mixed with bloody smell. The odors were mixed into the air and drifted into his nose. The source of the odors were the place where the roars sounded.

Dudian’s face turned ugly as he thought about the possibility of his misunderstanding about the mutated crocodiles. Although they had evolved from normal beasts but no doubt that they were fiercer than normal ones for hundred times. Previously when they were provoking the mutated crocodiles from the shore they thought that crocodiles didn’t want to consume them…But…it wasn’t because they didn’t want to, it was because they were afraid to come onto the shore because of the predator waiting for them.

Now, this monster has appeared.

After they had used the flame to force the mutated crocodiles out of the swamp this thing also dived out to hunt.

Dudian sucked into cold air as he shouted at Gwyneth in hurry: “Come here! Hurry! Don’t wait over there!”

Gwyneth recovered her eyes from the distance and saw the anxious expression on Dudian’s face. She rushed up the hill.

Dudian loaded the last shell into the canon as Gwyneth climbed the hill. He was staring at the bushes in front. The smell of the blood began to disappear and be covered with the odor of the soil. However the monster seemed to be staying at the same place without movement.

“Is it eating?” Dudian didn’t dare to relax as he stared at the bushes. Occasionally he would look at the three seriously injured crocodiles. They were slowly gathering around the hill.

“How should we deal with them?” Jin asked as his body slightly trembled. Previously as a knight of light he had always despised hunters who wandered outside the giant wall. He would never imagine that hunter would live and fight in such a dangerous place and deal with such monsters all day long.

Dudian slowly shook his head as he stared at the bushes. He couldn’t help but glance at the three crocodiles as they suddenly quietened down. His pupils shrank as he saw three of them round together and shiver. They were looking straight at bushes.

It would be difficult to imagine these monsters will show such a cowardly and helpless gesture if Dudian’t personally didn’t see it.

Dudian vigilantly looked around. Suddenly he saw a glimpse of a thing and he saw shocked at sight. A monster poked through the bushes. Its body was nearly thirty meters long. It had short limbs but the claws were extremely long and sharp. The most terrifying thing about the monster was that it had two heads!

“Twin headed snake lizard!” Dudian was stunned as he saw the level 27 existence in front of the bushes.

He had hunted level 26 black weaver with Glenn but at that time Glenn was almost killed. Moreover, the only senior hunter in their crew who had experience in fighting against monster was Sergei. However he was not necessarily Glenn’s opponent. After all, because of several years spent in prison he had become ‘rusty.’

“Turner out to be this monster. No wonder it dares to capture mutated crocodiles as food …” Dudian clutched onto cannon as he tightly stared at the newcomer.

Jin and Scar also noted the monster which lurked within the grass. It was similar to a prehistoric beast. Jin alsmo shouted out loud because of fear.

The crocodiles were uneasy and one of them began to growl. This low roar wasn’t meant to scare the twin headed snake lizard but it seemed to convene message to its companions.

Dudian stood on the high hill as he looked at the twin-headed snake lizard. There was nervousness and fear in his heart but at the same time an inexplicable excitement burst out.

Whoosh!

The twin-headed snake lizard rushed out from the bushes.

It was like tiger preying a rabbit. There was about hundred meters of distance between the bushes and the crocodiles. In less than a second it had crossed over 50 meters. The next moment it was in front of the three mutated crocodiles. Dudian’s pupils shrank as he observed the predator in action.

The mutated crocodiles roared in horror as they saw the twin-headed snake lizard appear. One of the used its tail while the others used its mouth and claws to attack it.

Twin-headed snake lizard was extremely flexible. It easily resolved the first wave of attacks and its two large snake heads bit onto the mutated crocodile. One of the heads grabbed onto its neck while the other bit its forelimb. The next moment the second head let go of the claw and began to wave right and left in front of crocodile’s head to attract its attention.
