“What was dead?”

Lao Shu looked at him with a horrified expression.

“The people doing this century-old wine task.” Hei Hu bitterly smiled, “Excluding those few people who were earlier, the guys later… … all were dead. Dao Ba made his move!”

Lao Shu was shocked. The several young men beside him started feeling some cold sweat. They had a look at each other and rejoiced for their luck.

The older generation hunters really had unique eyes.

They as youngsters, even if their strength wasn’t lacking, but in the experience department, there were too much of a gap!

“What happen?”

Lao Shu carefully asked.

Hei Hu hesitated for a bit before slowly revealed, “After you left, some people who didn’t listen to your advice still went ahead. Then, Dao Ba issued a warning! After witnessing the mighty power of the sniper rifle, these people finally gave up.”

“But you know, some people aren’t afraid of death. More and more people came. Dao Ba was getting annoyed by them and began to hurt them for real. In a blink, a dozen of people had been shot and injured. However, this task, you should know the price in the black market. Even with the fame of Dao Ba, it still wasn’t enough to stop those greedy people. Therefore, although many people were injured, they still rushed toward Fengshan Village.”

Hei Hu showed a hint of being afraid after saying till here before continuing, “It was at this moment, Dao Ba finally raged. Those who still insisted to enter...nobody came out alive. Just one shot! One shot from far away and then...died! When I rushed over there, I just managed to witness a young man in front of me.”

“A shot...”

Hei Hu’s face was somewhat pale, “A headshot kill, that young man died on the spot. The blood splashed on me. I was so scared that I quickly fled. Since Dao Ba saw me leaving, he just let me go and didn’t fire. If not, I won’t be standing here alive.”

Hearing this, everyone sucked in a mouthful of cold air.

Lao Shu swallowed his saliva for a bit. What Hei Hu described was similar to his experience!

“I remember Dao Ba wasn’t this powerful. Even his personal sniper rifle which he personally modified, only has a range of 3000 meters. But this time, it reached even 5000 meters! Plus, the forests had a lot of obstacles. Yet, he could just ignore them and headshot his victim. The current strength of Dao Ba was an entirely different world!”

“That’s right!” Hei Hu sighed in sorrow, “According to the rumour, Dao Ba had joined a mysterious organization. At first, I didn’t believe it but now, I’m afraid it’s true! After creating his name in Jianghe City for so many years, he finally succeeded!”

“Huh, true!”

Lao Shu also sighed. Only when would they succeed?

Those few young men were also confused by the conversation, “These two seniors, isn’t Dao Ba the number one hunter in Jianghe City? How could he succeed just right now?”

“Ah.”

Lao Shu shook his head, “The number one? Only within ordinary hunters! If he is really strong, who would want to be a hunter? Sniper rifles have always been monitored and banned by the Origin Ability Association. Even with a sniper rifle, when facing a truly strong esper, it would be just a joke. It may seem like an honour but us guys have basically reached the end road! Without origin ability talent, relying on a weapon to achieve glory and wealth, so what then?”

“Why would Dao Ba always upgrade his weapon? Because the only thing he could improve on is his weapon! His potential had been exhausted. Without origin ability talent, sooner or later he would be eliminated. But still, Dao Ba finally succeeded. With such powerful strength, presumably, this mysterious organization must have promised him a lot of benefits or perhaps gave him an origin ability talent of his own.”

“As for being the number one hunter in Jianghe City?”

“It is a joke in front of others.”

Lao Shu laughed at himself and looked at the youngsters, “Since you all have origin ability talent, train hard then. One day, you guys will surpass us. This is the era of origin ability. Only those with origin ability will have the final laugh.”

Hei Hu nodded as he felt the same.

Those who were active in the front lines of the hunters circle basically were the first batch of the era. However, like Li Xiaoru, they didn’t possess any origin ability talent. Lao Shu was also very strong but still failed halfway. He only managed to obtain the strong sense of danger.

Although it was different from origin ability talent, all these years, he couldn’t remember how many time it had saved him. But others might not be that lucky. All they could resort to was training their body, buying powerful weapons, and using drugs to increase their strength.

What was behind all these glories was sadness!

“If Dao Ba can succeed, we definitely can too!” Lao Shu’s eyes suddenly showed high spirit as he looked at Hei Hu, “Remember this day. This time, it is the fame of Dao Ba! One day, I will let everyone afraid of me in battle too.”

“Haha, great then!”

Hei Hu laughed out loud, “Come, let's go to a bar! Nobody is to go back home until we are drunk! The fame from battle, one day this daddy will have too. We will learn from Dao Ba! Pay respects to Dao Ba!”

“Pay respects to Dao Ba!”

Shouting a few times, they walked towards a bar together.

But at this time, they were totally clueless that the all mighty Dao Ba which they respected was gradually decaying in the forest near Fengshan Village.

“Peng!”

A sharp piercing sound could be heard. Su Hao who was lying on the ground, holding his sniper rifle and watched one person who dared to rush in.
