My Last Hunt

Chapter 347: Level Battles 21

Level Battles 21

Sharp rushing sounds could be here in the surrounding. The sky was getting brighter with the constant use of stones. The stones shone bright and then leapt at the orders to fulfill the command. Level seven energy was no way inferior; Qiao controlled the commands and guided. 

He was engrossed in the attacks. Five monsters were not organized; their random attacks were going useless. Qiao was completely focused; this attempt let him learn some of the aspects. First of all that hunters could control more than one stone at the same time; second aspect that the monsters were actually stronger, he could see that the two monsters healed their small injury immediately. 

With the levels the efficiency of healing body increases; this applied to the hunters as well. Small injuries cannot bring threat. There were rumors that the hunters and the monsters can battle for many days. Their enhanced strength and force keep at the peak unless the balance of the power dwindles. 

This can only happen when the hunter or the monster possessed some extraordinary traits to defeat other. The monsters in the surrounding distanced from the place. It was so because it was not the battle between one hunter and one monster. Actually it no more looked battle. 

The monsters were running and attacking; the hunter was doing the same. They run when an attack was rightly aimed. For the reason that the monsters were not guiding their stone consequently every attack has two options. First that it would hit the target; second that it would waste away. 

Qiao was guiding his stones for the attack but then again the monsters ran around wildly avoiding the attack; sometimes they succeeded other times the attack succeeded. It was such a sight that the other monsters were sneaking this hopeless battle. Qiao was investing his time prudently. He was in fact glad that he found five triggered monsters in one go. Now his aim was to keep them busy in the battle to see his limit with guiding the stones. 

Lam sat on the ground at the fair distance. Previous encounter let it understand about the capability of the master. Few more attacks fell on the monsters. Qiao also barely saved from one accurate attack. Perhaps both sides were getting serious with the battle. 

It was getting tough. The frequent attacks caused tremors in the surrounding. Qiao could feel the increasing tension. He strongly felt that the balance of the both sides was not accurate and he might get injured anytime. Any perfect attack could render him bruised. 

"One of them should get injured with my attack else it will be too late." Qiao murmured and focused one of the laziest monsters among five. With the rush skill he could evade the attack of others and in the meantime prepare dead net for the fifth. 

He was deciding in his head about his further plan. He could make use of the unorganized monsters. With this he guided his both stones for sudden and harsh attack. The stones understood the attentions of the master. Nonetheless both stones were supposed to attack at once only then the monster would get seriously injured. 

None of the monster was aware about the upcoming changes until the attack fell exploding on the fifth monster. The monster fell with the utmost agony in its eyes. The attack was sudden and fatal. It did not die however no more can take part in attacks. 

The four monsters got stunned however instead of getting worried; they glared the useless monsters with hatred. For them this monster was incompetent and finally met the consequences. 

There was visible difference. Qiao found a moment or two to decide the next target. His decision of attacking with two stones was best and it proved. At level seven the monsters cannot guide their stones perfectly. They only know how to attack and defense using the direct stone. Guiding a stone was different than attacking directly. Once a hunter guide a stone then the stone never lose the target if the target was not under the range then the stone would return back thus saving the attack energy. 

Monsters were different. Once they command for attack; the attack could go to waste if the target perfectly evaded. These small differences were used by the smart hunters. They most of the time keep strict eyes at the weakness of the opponent and then attack. The constant attacks created small and big craters and Qiao barely could find a place for his feet. 

He was moving during the delay so he could change his position. The present ground was no more in proper condition and he cannot stand on craters. The monsters thought that perhaps he was trying to escape. "You only killed weakest of all. We won't let you go this easy." One of them chided. 

"Let's see who will be struggling for escape in the end." Qiao also scorned. He was glad that these arrogant monsters misunderstood his actions. 'Once ignorant can be fooled again' he thought in his head. He did set his eyes for the second big attack however he cannot do this right after injuring the fifth. 

For some time the monsters were active and diligently keeping eyes at his actions. They were four, in case they combined their attacks then no matter if he rushed; the energy of four stones would lock his movements first. It would bring disaster for him eventually. 

The monsters were getting frantic because most of the attacks were wasted. They were trying their best to injure the haughty hunter. The monsters were terrified to witness the perfect rush skill and excellent observation skill. In their eyes it was utterly impossible to predict where the attack would fell unless the hunter has learned the distribution of the time frames in the moment details. 

It was impossible to learn for the level seven hunter yet they could witness with their eyes. This let Qiao learn that his limit increased hundred folds. Despite lot of attacks and struggles he was fresh and eager to battle for another whole day. It was good sign. It brought some hope in his heart. His hard practice and never tiring efforts bore fruit. It gave him some hope to fight against the wicked hunter. 

Qiao held this hope in his heart and increased strength behind his attacks immediately deciding the next target. Now it was more than ever necessary to hunt as many monsters as he could for several reasons. His level up was necessary; his hunting should be polished during these battles. 

His focus was to collect the rare stones too hence he was planning to ask for the Test Trials of Hunter King right after reaching half way through level eight. Qiao suddenly attacked his second target commanding his defense stone to create strong wall in front. This attack would provoke the anger of the monsters and they might come rushing at him. Thinking this he decided to take safety actions first. 

The attack flamed the monster it was forceful than the previous one. His attentions were clear from this attack. The three remaining monsters were looking at each other. They were scared now. Initially they thought that the hunter would eventually get exhausted and they will kill him but contrary to their expectations the hunter was turning in to their horrible dream 

Their attacks once again met the defending stone. The bright defense wall shook and cracks appeared fortunately it did not collapse. Qiao heaved deep breath after killing second monster. His experience points increased adding in his strength. 

This revived his present strength. Now he understood why his strength was at the balance point. His attacking stones were transferring the earned experience points directly in the level badge. He did not know how this worked however it was brilliant. 

Such type of reasons made him believe the capabilities of the elders. They were retired but capable to design such tokens. "We are still in the battle, right?" Qiao asked the monster that previously glared. "You are tricking us. I regret not learning important aspect instead chose this human speech skill." The monster shook its head. 

After seeing this specific hunter battling to no end with number of feats; the monster was unable to digest it. Most of the monsters chose stupid skills eventually getting killed by sharp hunters. This one was also worried because of its choice. 

They were trying their best but could not leave single better attack. It was shameless on their part. They might not be able to live with this shame. Before starting this battle; they were fighting over petty matter with the other monsters of the same den instead of learning some skills to make the den safe from the attacks of the outsiders. 

This hunter came taking advantage of their situation and they get trapped easily. "It is not late yet; we can combine our attacks to kill this hunter." Comparably wise monster suggested.
