Hunter (2)

Jingle!

Suddenly, the sound of chains colliding rang out as the Hunter's huge arm was tied up by countless chains, hanging in the air, unable to come down.

Noan was a bit surprised; he didn't think that Vylyss's chains could bind a Hunter.

It must be known that even though Vylyss is a D-rank hero, she is like a mage; her physical strength cannot be compared to the Hunter or Urlgan.

But… looking at the chains binding Hunter's arms, Noan could hardly believe his eyes.

However, Noan saw that those chains all had anchor points. To be exact... Vylyss had attached countless chains to the surrounding structures without him knowing.

When the Hunter attacked her, those chains immediately bound it.

Vylyss did not lose any strength, but the surrounding structures anchored the Hunter with their own weight.

No matter how strong the Hunter was, it couldn't possibly pull down the countless concrete pillars of the surrounding buildings.

At this moment, Vylyss's eyes suddenly emitted a strange pink light. A stream of pink smoke flew towards Hunter, surrounding its head.

Gru! Gru! Gru!

Hunter tried to struggle as if something was making him feel extremely uncomfortable, but the chains naturally wouldn't let him go.

"GROO!!!"

Urlgan turned back now, angrily swinging its thorn mace up, using all its strength to smash it towards Hunter's head.

However, the Hunter, even though tied up, was still able to swing his arm back, blocking the thorn mace that was swinging towards his head.

BAM!

The two sides collided fiercely, the air pressure exploded, forming a hurricane that blew out all around.

But Urlgan seemed to have gone mad; his eyes were red as blood.

It continued to swing the thorn mace towards Hunter.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

The Hunter wanted to block, but the pink smoke made it impossible to concentrate.

Vylyss waved her hand, and at this moment, other chains shot out from her palm, shooting into the distance.

Jingle! Jingle! Jingle!

The sound of chains echoed through the rubble from the collapsed buildings, then they returned, binding Hunter.

Noan knew Vylyss was adding more chains to imprison the Hunter.

Urlgan seemed to have gone crazy at this point; not only did he hit the Hunter's head, he also hit its entire body.

It was as if Urlgan was swinging the thorn mace by instinct.

BAM!

BAM!

Even if the Hunter was rank (D - Peak), he could not resist the power and coordination of Vylyss and Urlgan.

However, he underestimated the Hunter.

Even though it was hit by Urlgan's thorn mace, the Hunter was not too badly injured. His body was covered in blood, but if you looked closely, he only had torn skin and minor injuries.

But… Noan looked at Vylyss, her face covered in sweat. Even though she had used anchor points to bind Hunter, these chains were made from her magic.

To maintain them, Vylyss had to concentrate extremely hard and use a lot of energy.

Noan knew this situation could not last; otherwise, he would definitely lose.

GREE!!

CLANG!

The Hunter suddenly roared; it used its strength and broke Vylyss' chains.

It swung its arm, slashing towards Urlgan, its sharp claws slashing against the thorn mace, creating a metallic clashing sound.

Its force was so great that it forced Urlgan to retreat.

Suddenly, Hunter stopped attacking Urlgan and instead charged towards Vylyss.

At this moment, Vylyss felt pain in her body as her magical chains broke, turning into countless black dust particles.

At this moment, before she could regain consciousness, Hunter appeared before her.

Its claws swung up, aimed straight at her head, and once again came down.

Vylyss was startled; the Hunter's speed was too fast. She couldn't react in time; she could only watch its claws getting closer and closer to her head.

CLANG!

The sound of metal clashing rang out.

There was no pain or blood like Vylyss expected; she only saw two skeletons holding shields and swords standing in front of her.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed her shoulder and pulled her back.

"Master?!" Vylyss discovered that Noan had come to her side without her knowing.

Perhaps because she was so focused on Hunter that she didn't realise that Noan had come up beside her.

"Don't talk too much; let's run quickly; the sun is about to set." Noan said worriedly.

The Hunter, although very strong, in its current condition, cannot exert its full power.

But… When the sun sets and night falls, that's when it can unleash its full power.

It's not for nothing that people nicknamed him Hunter.

Because in the dark, it is really a Hunter.

Urlgan now charged towards the Hunter, swinging his thorn mace, but…

Whoosh!

The wind whistled; the thorn mace missed the Hunter, as it only swung through the air.

The Hunter immediately retreated, its eyes looking towards Noan and Vylyss filled with hatred.

But it knew... the time was coming when it could unleash its full power, so it was in no hurry.

"Run, Urlgan."

Urlgan hesitated a bit when he heard Noan's voice. He looked at Hunter, then gritted his teeth and ran after Noan.

"Master… We need to travel a very long distance to return to the shelter, I'm afraid…" Vylyss reminded Noan.

Noan gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I know that, but… we can't face it right now."

"Especially when the sun sets, its power is even more terrifying."

Vylyss fell silent upon hearing that; she could see the extreme tension showing on his face.

Suddenly, Noan stopped, looked into the distance, and frowned, saying: "Vylyss, I have an idea…"

Immediately after, Noan, Vylyss, and Urlgan, along with the four skeletons, suddenly split up, running in different directions.

The Hunter, who was hiding in the dark, did not act, but he stared at Vylyss.

…

The sun gradually fell in the distance, and darkness also slowly invaded this world.

Like a dark curtain, slowly covering the entire sky.

Although darkness had not yet enveloped the entire city, this place was still so dark that it was difficult for normal human eyes to see anything.

After all, this world has been through a zombie apocalypse for many years; there is no longer any power source or light that still emits light.

The Hunter paid no attention to Noan or Urlgan, only to Vylyss.

Its eyes carried extreme greed and hunger.

Seeing Vylyss running around, then taking shelter in a pile of rubble, Hunter remained still and waited.

When darkness completely engulfed this world, leaving only darkness, the Hunter began to walk out of the ruins.

In the dark, its eyes are like infrared glasses, able to see everything as clearly as during the day.

Its body was very large; if it stood upright, it would probably be over two meters tall, but when it moved, it was extremely light, making almost no sound at all.

It stared at where Vylyss was hiding but made no haste to act.

Like a wild animal hunting for prey, it does not rush towards its prey but lies still and observes first.

Vylyss suddenly rushed out and then walked towards an extremely tall building in the distance; it seemed to be the tallest building still standing until now.

Seeing Vylyss enter inside, it also started moving.

Slow and gentle, not making any sound. The Hunter seemed to blend into the darkness; however, its sharp claws extended as if in dire need of fresh blood.

The Hunter entered the building; in the lobby, Vylyss was looking at something, not moving but standing still.

Seeing her standing still, Hunter did not rush towards her but remained hidden in a mysterious place.

Although darkness had fallen across the city, it was already dark outside, and even darker inside the building.

It was so dark that even if you held your hand in front of your face, you wouldn't see it clearly, but the Hunter was still hiding in a mysterious place, which showed that he was very careful.

The Hunter saw Vylyss start to turn away from it, then slowly walk deeper into the building.

At this point, it started to act.

Each step it took on the ground was extremely light, in complete contrast to its massive body.

Step by step... slowly getting closer to Vylyss.

When the distance between it and her was less than ten meters, at this moment, it suddenly bent down slightly, then…

BAM!

A terrible sound rang out as its foot stomped on the ground, causing it to shatter.

The tremendous recoil made it like a bullet as it shot towards Vylyss.

The ten-meter distance was shortened in the blink of an eye, its claws extended, slashing towards Vylyss.

Whoosh!

The whistling sound of wind was created by Hunter's claws, but… as Vylyss was cut into pieces, her body suddenly turned into a stream of black smoke, then dissipated.

Hunter: "??!!"

Hunter was startled; he didn't understand what was happening. Why did Vylyss disappear?

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Suddenly, countless explosions rang out; it was like the sound of steel bars being violently broken.

Hunter raised his head; he felt something coming down, and his instincts were telling him to run.

It immediately rushed out; however, Urlgan suddenly appeared in front of it, swinging the thorn mace in its hand.

BAM!

The enormous force sent Hunter flying backwards; although it wasn't too badly injured, it was a bit stunned.

Urlgan was no better; he felt pain in both hands holding the thorn mace, proving that the collision just now was extremely terrible.

Jingle! Jingle!

While the Hunter was still unconscious, countless chains suddenly appeared and wrapped tightly around him.

Those chains weren't very strong, but they wrapped tightly around the surrounding pillars, then tied up Hunter, making it difficult for him to move.

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

There was a loud bang; the whole building shook violently as if an earthquake was happening.

Hunter tried to move, but as soon as it did, Urlgan lunged in front of it, swinging his thorn mace repeatedly, stunning it further.

It knew something dangerous was falling, but it couldn't move, much less avoid it.

Urlgan's constant attacks forced it to fight back, the chains restricting its movements.

"Enough!"

Suddenly, Noan's voice rang out; Urlgan heard that and immediately jumped back, then ran out of the building.

Instinctively, Hunter also wanted to run, but it was too late.

A giant steel ball, along with countless pieces of debris from the upper floors, fell down.

GREEK!!!

BAM!!!!
