Chapter 847 - A game between hunters (1/2)

The axes were very heavy. If it weren’t for the barbarians’ great strength, they would probably not be able to wield such a heavy weapon either.

Ren Xiaosu stowed the two axes in the palace and was about to leave. But when he turned around, he suddenly saw a shadowy group of uninvited guests in the forest.

The sound of heavy footsteps on decomposing leaves came from all directions. It sounded like dozens of bears approaching quickly.

The moonlight was dim, but Ren Xiaosu could still see the glinting of the axes in the forest when he looked around.

So it turned out those five people were used as bait. Just like how Ren Xiaosu had to place grains and bread crumbs under the black cauldron to catch the sparrow, a good hunter would first have to know how to use bait. A hunter who was reluctant to use bait was not a good hunter.

Therefore, these barbarians, who were experts at hunting, were even willing to use their companions as bait just so they could finish off Ren Xiaosu. They had really invested a lot into this.

But it was understandable. After all, too many of them had died to Ren Xiaosu’s hands over the past two days. Now that they had used just five people to lure him out, even though it sounded a little cruel, it would at least reduce the number of casualties for them.

The barbarians were just 50 meters away and closing in on Ren Xiaosu in the center of the encirclement. They started slowing down and adjusted their formation in an orderly manner to prevent Ren Xiaosu from escaping.

Ren Xiaosu took good measure of his enemies. To be honest, he never faced so many barbarians at the same time before. Their formation was tight and solid, giving him an invisible, huge sense of oppression.

Within the cast net, Ren Xiaosu was a lone wolf that had lost its way and was on the verge of being surrounded by hunters.

As they approached, the barbarians started grunting a tone for some reason. It sounded extremely desolate and ferocious like the battle cries heard in wars. When the prey realized they were getting surrounded by this sound, they would gradually lose their minds and turn anxious.

The barbarians were getting closer and closer. When they got a clear view of the young man in the forest, they were certain that victory was within grasp.

The barbarians were indeed good hunters. If it were anyone else who got surrounded here, they would probably die for real. Even the Pyro Company’s T5s could not take on so many barbarians head-on.

Unfortunately, it was Ren Xiaosu they were surrounding.

In that instant, Ren Xiaosu pointed his black saber diagonally at the west. The barbarians were a little taken aback as they could not figure out what this young man was up to.

But the barbarian who was in charge of the encirclement this time felt that something was off. Because he saw the young man smiling!

“Wait! It’s a trap!” the barbarian roared furiously.

As soon as he spoke, his chest started bleeding. Then the sound of a sniper rifle rang out in the distance like it was the prelude to a show.

The dark red blood glistened in the moonlight as strong winds gusted through the forest. The tree branches even seemed like they were applauding.

Ren Xiaosu looked at the barbarians around him. The audience for this performance had entered the venue.

A second later, Ren Xiaosu did not retreat but charged into the crowd instead. As he fought calmly among the barbarians by himself, any enemies that posed a threat to him would abruptly die by his side.

Sniper bullets slid through the gaps in the forest and took out the barbarians accurately, ending their lives.

Wherever Ren Xiaosu went, barbarians next to him would end up dead. For a moment, the young man battling under the mottled glow of the moonlight was the Grim Reaper.

As previously mentioned, a hunter who did not know how to use bait could not be called a good hunter.
