Chapter 45 (2/2)

Having been forced to leave his hometown, it took him only five years to reach this level of wizardry.

As Satan recalled this, it seemed as if this fact no longer bothered him. But Sui Xiong could feel that he was still holding a grudge against the young wizard from his past. After all, at that time, he should not have helped that girl and displeased the youth with good connections.

Satan didn’t tell any of this to anyone, but since he had chosen to believe Sui Xiong, Sui Xiong could see directly into his soul. When Satan suddenly recalled this unforgettable incident, Sui Xiong could see the scene play out without prying into his heart.

Then Sui Xiong secretly decided that he would help Satan finish this business while they were in his hometown. Even if Satan wasn’t his follower, he would still have helped him.

If the road was not even, one would step on it and make it even; if someone had been treated unfairly, justice should prevail, and if there was no one else to see this through, then the jellyfish god would step in.

See? This time, the jellyfish would do its part.

Thanks to the good weather, Sui Xiong managed to fly all day without feeling tired. Soon, he would arrive at the edge of the Gobi Desert. His intended route avoided actually crossing the Gobi Desert, so he only needed to skirt around the edges. Once the sun had gone down, the temperature dropped significantly. Night in the Gobi Desert was as cold as the Snowland in the north.

But the night also had some bright sides. On a freezing cold night, most of the dangerous and poisonous creatures had gone to sleep, and the most dangerous sandstorms seldom happened at night. If Sui Xiong could keep a keen eye out for the monsters that usually moved around at night, it would be much safer for him to sleep during the day and move at night.

Sui Xiong floated in the sky quietly. In fact, he didn’t need to sleep, but he’d become accustomed to sleeping when the night came and wanted to enjoy the kind of solid night’s sleep that was essential for a human’s health.

The moon was bright and beautiful. The floating jellyfish spread its body and absorbed the moonlight as much as possible while resting. Around him, a huge vortex formed that absorbed all the magic energy within a few hundred meters. If any creatures around had witnessed this magical force field, they would certainly have been shocked by the bizarre scene in the sky.

For Sui Xiong, this was his process for resting, eating or enhancing his ability.

While he was resting quietly, he heard someone approach. He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a group of people who were running in a panic, and a man in black riding a one-horned Nargacuga was chasing after them.

Sui Xiong was in a daze, but when he realized they needed rescuing, he suddenly stopped.

He noticed that among those people, more than one person was wearing a strange necklace made of bones. There was a man standing in the center of them who was obviously the leader. He also wore a necklace which was made of human fingers!

Hunters! These followers of the God of Hunting and Holocaust were a bunch of evil guys who hunted humans. Most of them probably had a part-time job as a killer. As the most common evil group, Sui Xiong immediately recognized them. After all, the hunters’ necklaces around their necks were obvious, and anyone with experience as an adventurer would recognize them.

Sui Xiong had not been on an adventure before, but he had read something about this evil organization in the materials from the God of Redemption. They were the most ruthless group among the followers of the God of Hunting and Holocaust, and they believed the principle that they could only please their god by killing people. They were wild about killing people of the same race as them and holding blood sacrifice rituals. Their necklaces were trophies from the remains of the people they had killed. With the help of the necklace, they could trap and torture the souls of the dead, and they took pride in this, employing this ruthless practice to create a few very powerful magic spells.

Undoubtedly, even among a group of thugs, the hunter was the most ruthless and terrifying. Now that Sui Xiong had seen them, he decided to kill them all!

As for the man in black who was chasing after them, he wasn’t the nicest guy either. Although the man was surrounded by wraiths with the help of a spell called Camp Identification Eyes, Sui Xiong could see his body was surrounded by bright red. Clearly, he was also a brutal man who liked fighting and had killed countless men. With the help of Camp Identification Eyes, Sui could also see that the hunters were totally black, covered in dirt and truly disgusting!

Sui Xiong thought what he had seen was probably a dog eat dog scenario that often happened in the world of gangsters.
