Chapter 454 - The End of the Haotian Gang (1/2)

Rustle, rustle… A wave of messy footstep sounds rang out in the devastated forest.

Shallow footprints were left behind on the firm snowy ground everywhere the Haotian Gang’s elites walked. At the same time, they were looking around cautiously, and would look to their feet from time to time.

If there were any exotic beasts’ active in the area, surely they’d leave footprints on the snow, and wouldn’t go unnoticed. Of course, it’d be a different story if it were flying exotic beasts.

In fact, they had indeed discovered the tracks of quite a few exotic beasts through this method. However, those exotic beasts were too weak, and didn’t give much profit to the Haotian Gang.

After all, only Sun Haotian had a storage-type beast card of all of the Haotian Gang. The storage space wasn’t huge, either, only twenty cubic meters or so. It was known as a Nirvana Snake, a four-star storage-type beast card.

Back then, the Haotian Gang paid an extremely huge price to purchase the beast card from Premium House!

With just this tiny storage space, naturally they wouldn’t waste it on storing those trash exotic beast’s remains. At the very least, only materials from mid-tier exotic beasts were considered worthy of being kept in the precious storage-type beast card.

Suddenly, one of the gang members exclaimed in a suppressed voice, “Big Brother, check out over there!”

Sun Haotian and the others turned their heads, following that member’s gaze. They saw some sink-sized, foot-deep footprints in the valley to the front and side, between the fallen trees, extending towards deeper into the valley.

Needless to say, if that exotic beast to leave behind such a huge footprint, it definitely wouldn’t be weak. It should be about mid-tier gold-quality, at the very least!

An exotic beast at that level happened to be just within the range the Haotian Gang could hunt without much danger.

“Come, we’ll follow the prints and go have a look!” Sun Haotian commanded, a hint of joy flashing on his face. He led the group as they headed into the valley.

Unbeknownst to them, however, in outer space above them, a military satellite had locked onto their tracks, and was sending their positions to the ground on the other end accurately.

——

About half a day after entering the mountain forest, they finally discovered a decent prey. The Haotian Gang was unusually excited at the prospect, quickly following the footprints in search of their prey.

They searched around in the valley for about ten minutes. When Sun Haotian and the others were about to give up, a commotion was finally heard from ahead.

In the forest several hundred meters ahead, a wave of animals’ frightened cries was suddenly heard.

That exotic beast seemed to have gotten into an extremely dangerous situation and was quickly running for its life, knocking against the trees, causing a huge commotion. Large amounts of snow fell from the branches.

The trail of sink-sized footprints ended right in the forest ahead!

Without a doubt, the prey Sun Haotian’s gang was searching for was currently preying on weaker exotic beasts in the forest!

Sun Haotian turned to look at Sun Haiying, instructing him, “Haiying, have your scouting beast fly over to check out the situation there. We’ll charge right in if that exotic beast isn’t too strong!”

As a medium-sized gang, naturally the Haotian Gang had their own scouting-type subdued beast. This kind of set-up was necessary.

Sun Haiying nodded excitedly. A silvery ray shot out from his brow, directly soaring into the skies and turning into a large sky-blue bird, winging towards the sky above the forest.

Soon, Sun Haiying received information from his scouting beast. He could no longer suppress his excitement and told Sun Haotian, “Big Brother, my Blue Wind Beast has investigated clearly. It’s a huge bear over five meters tall, and is very strong. It wouldn’t be any weaker than mid-tier gold-quality! Perhaps it might even be at mid-tier dark gold-quality!”

“Good, we should be able to hunt it as long as it’s not above mid-tier dark gold-quality!”

A hint of excitement shone in Sun Haotian’s eyes. He waved his hand fiercely. The gang members quickly took their positions, ready to surround the forest ahead.

Although they wouldn’t obtain a beast card from that mid-tier gold-quality or higher exotic beast, the materials they could obtain from its corpse were also worth a lot. It shouldn’t be a problem to sell the materials for tens of millions of dollars.
