Chapter 389 - The Last Piece(Part-2) (1/2)
”Devraj Move to the right, Marcus to the left flank it, do not let it escape.”
The trio flanked at the creature and soon Radiant Sky landed a killing blow to the creature ending its life, ”Well we have our dinner boys.”
The trio grinned and as Devraj bend down to pick it an arrow flew and hit the corpse as a harsh voice came to their ears, ”Trespassers destroying our homeland shall be dealt with.”
They turned to see a large beefy man with fur covering his modesty looking at them with anger in his eyes as his bow pointed towards them, they could have fought and taken care of the man but then they were surrounded by a dozen of them each aiming their deadly arrows towards them, seeing the men dressed in a primitive fashion they would have scoffed off and killed them if it were not for their aura that rivaled them as such Radiant Sky the ever brave and ferocious cultivator retaliated soon by raising his hand high up in the sky as he shouted out at the top of his lungs, ”We surrender.”, both Devraj and Marcus looked at him with disbelief as their jaws drop, even the people who had them surrounded were taken aback.
A few hours later Ryuu felt a headache forming apparently their group had managed to ran afoul with the inhabitants of the swamp when they were so close to finding the last key and moving to the next level, 'It wis like some kind of RPG a certain actions would trigger certain events don't tell me we have to help another group fight another ugh it is getting boring and repetitive.'
Devraj had just finished retelling word by word of their recent encounter as everyone turned towards Radiant Sky as many of them glared, because of his actions not only did it not save their lives but also presented them as a joke and weakling in front of the new group, it was only because of Marcus's quick thinking that they managed to escape.
”I bet they might have to last piece.”
True-Spear snorted at that as he spoke, ”That is a sucker's bet as far as we have seen the stronger the opponent the more are chances for another piece of the puzzle.”
”So how do we tackle it?”
”Let Chasing Winds deal with it her beautiful amorous aroma might be soothing to them.”, a certain redhead whispered only for his feet to get stomped by both Frost Flame and Frozen Ocean making him wince.
”What is there to think about we go and take it from them if required by force.”
Ryuu looked towards the speaker as he spoke with a frown, ”As much as your idea holds merit you forgot a few vital details, firstly we know nothing of their strength, numbers or anything secondly if we leave behind an overly antagonistic enemy what would you do if we were forced to retreat back to this level, we would have to fight against a very dangerous enemy for at the very least 7 and a half years not to mention in their territory.”
Frost Flames closed her eyes for a brief moment before she spoke with a fierce gleam in them, ”So we should try and study them.”
Ryuu looked at her momentarily before he spoke with a nod, ”Yes study them by spying on them we should try to learn as much of their habitat, their way of life their behavior before we strike them.”
Zywia bit her lips as she spoke, ”It would be difficult if not outright impossible as you said that they are natives they know this lands as such it would be difficult for us to spy on them.”
