Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

Chapter 110 Human Nature Is Seen At Its Finest During Danger.

Chiron immediately shook his head at this thought.

How could he blame Fate for something like this?

Even if it was, then so be it. But he was smart enough to know that pushing the blame for mistakes or failures to the heavens was not going to get anything done.

What he needed to do was find a way about the problem.

For now, he could only blame his lack of adequate information about the target.

Even while he was deep in cultivation, he had been monitoring Carla's movements through Emma.

He already knew that she had joined a party and was aware of the kind of people that her party members were.

What was problematic was the fact that they were having debts that could hinder his progress.

However...

Chiron's eyes brightened a bit. He was already long of the motion that when life gave you lemons, you were to give back lemonade or better still, extract your share of Vitamin C.

Carla went back to her mum to say goodbye. Her father had already long gone. Besides, he had not come here because of her.

It had only been a coincidence that he had followed them to the Bureau of Cultivators.

Usually, it was only her mother coming to say good bye every day.

Even though Carla had tried to stop her mother many times because of her poor health, the ever loving mother would not have it.

The goodbyes were said and the party of six took their camping bags and set forth for their hunt.

As they approached the gates to exit the clan, Chiron could not help but observe the gate and its walls.

The seals on this gate and walls protected the clan from outside threats such as beasts and the like but that was not Chiron's interest.

Chiron's interest lay in the source of the power running through the gates and the wall.

For some reason, it reminded him of something.

Just like before, he shoved the thought to the back of his mind.

Ponzi was not only the oldest of the group but also the strongest. As one could guess, he led the way and the others followed firmly behind him.

He was also most familiar with the safest route that could also allow them get good benefits.

"Senior Ponzi, Where are we going?" Chiron asked.

"We are going to hunt Rabid big foot Rabbits," Luna responded cheerfully.

"Rabid big Foot rabbits!?" Chiron frowned a bit, "I thought we were going for the Snow white Tulip Healer."

"Well, we are, but not yet!" Ponzi replied.

"We are having too much debt at the moment, we need the big foot from the rabbits to ease off our debts before we go for the Snow white tulip healer," Carla explained.

Chiron nodded. It was just like he had guessed.

The Snow white tulip flower was very important and very valuable too, but the guarantee of finding it was just too low. The best thing to do was to first of all pay off the debt to the Bureau of cultivators before going for the Flower.

After a few hours of walking along the forest paths, they finally arrived.

"SHUSH!!!" Ponzi instructed. Especially to the ever-noisy twins. "We are here!"

Just in front of them was a mellow of grasses. It was quiet and calming.

In the mellow grasses were Snow white rabbits. One look at them and it was understandable why they were called what there were called.

These rabbits looked ordinary, but one of their legs looked by far bigger than the other. And so the name, but Chiron could really not see the Rabid part.

"We can't alert them of our presence. Besides if we go in there and hunt them, it will be a bloody mess once they smell the blood." Ponzi warned. He looked at Dune and nodded at him.

Dune took out a carrot from his bag and sprinkled some spice on it.

As he did, he added a bit of his own spiritual energy. The moment he did this, Chiron could see that most of the Rabbits in the Mellow grasses, had their heads up and their nose sniffing the air for the treat.

However, he immediately covered it with a smelly cloth that covered the attractive smell.

After sniffing the air for some time, there stopped and continued their grazing.

"We are going to use this as bait!" Dune smiled at Chiron.

Behind them, Luna and Carla were already busy digging up the hole in the ground. They looked to Chiron and Zi, and both of them joined in.

In no time, a deep hole was dug in the ground.

While Chiron's group had been digging the hole, Dune and Ponzi were sharping spikes.

These spikes were then set into the hole facing upwards.

By now, Chiron understood the kind of trap there were setting up. It was basic, in truth, it was also quite effective.

As one would expect, the carrot was placed in the hole while everyone found a place to hide.

The Rabbits smelt it and the ran one after the other into the hole.

As they did, Chiron and his team members made quite the kill.

"Nice! So much Rabid big foot rabbits! with this much, we will be able to shave at least three points from our debt," Luna commented in excitement.

Chiron looked into the hole. There were at least the corpse of ninety Rabid big foot rabbits in there, but all it could remove from the debt was a miserable three points.

It was absolutely ridiculous.

It took them almost three hours to get here. That was three hours coming and three hours going back just for three points.

Chiron massaged his temple. At these rate, clearing those points was basically pointless.

There had to just be a better way around it.

Just then, the joyous laughter from the team stopped. Chiron looked in the direction all the others were staring.

One look at the uninvited guest and he could tell what the problem was.

Firstly, these uninvited guest was a Rabid big foot Rabbit. However, it did not look anything like the others.

It was at least three times in size, and so was its foot.

This Rabid big foot rabbit unlike the rest did not have yellow eyes, but rather green eyes.

In other words, it was a green cored beast.

"Shit!" Ponzi cursed out loud.

Normally, Rabid big foot rabbits were simple herbivores. Even though they were cored beasts, they were easy to handle, but Rabid big foot rabbits had a thing about them when they came in contact with blood.

Meaning that an unsual change always occurred.

Right now, as they looked at this Rabid big foot Rabbit, such a change was happening.

This was the Warning that Ponzi had given.

If this Rabid big foot rabbit was like any of the other rabbits that were simply Yellow cored, then facing it in its frenzy state would not have been a big deal.

"RUN!!!" Ponzi screamed and as fast as possible, they all ran for the trees.

Chiron looked back. He could see it clearly as the rabbit changed. Its white fur suddenly became brown, and then its body seemed to swell several times in size.

Its rabbit teeth became longer, its claws sharper, and its rabbit tail suddenly became very long.

Chiron was aware of the existence of such a creature, and he had already seen it through his dreams of the MC before he wrote the book, but seeing it face to face was entirely a different feeling.

The Rabbit bared its fangs as it dived for them.

They had created some distance from it, but only a few leaps on its big foot was what it took for the beast to catch up with the person lacking behind.

Chiron was naturally stronger than what any of these people thought but he did not want anybody to know of his strength.

Naturally, good acting was necessary for impressive results.

However, he had to also make it look believable.

If it was him alone, the speed he would have displayed might have left these people speechless.

After all, his physical body had been trained to an incredible level and his cultivation was of the High wood rank.

Right now, he was intentionally lacking behind.

However, he was still not the last person. Just behind him was Zi. She was the person with the lowest cultivation in the group.

She screamed and ran as hard as she could, but the Rabid big foot rabbit was steadily catching up.

This was the wild. Nothing living here cared for the innocent. The only thing of importance was survival.

Just like Chiron, all the others could see it too. At this rate, Zi was definitely going to become Rabbit food.

In this state of panic, Chiron's eyes observed his teammates carefully. At this point, he remembered the words of a psychologist from his previous world: Human nature is seen at its finest during danger.
