Chapter 157 - Hunting for Prey
#1
Justin Point’s wall began to collapse due to the impact from the explosion. Although it wasn’t a harsh explosion it was enough to cause such a disaster.
“Ahhhh! Everyone, put an offering on the altar!”
“Halcan!”
“Go! We have to go without him!
All of the Oaks began to escape to safety.
Their leader was suffering.
They ran as fast as they could and as the wall crashed down behind them.
Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!
As they ran for their lives they realized how useless such a fight was as they were losing the entire city in the process.
Oaks were running close to the very bottom of the wall and close to the very top. The pieces were stacking up like a pyramid as they fell to the ground where the Oaks ran over them.
The church members who were at the top of the wall randomly headed towards the bottom during all of the explosions but were able to climb back up to safety.
On the side of the wall that Halcan was there was an entrance to the other side that Oaks were going through. It was extremely narrow and hot due to flames from the explosions. Many of the Oaks were on fire but that didn’t stop them from running for their lives.
Justin Point was in a crisis…
Someone then appeared on top of the wall.
It was a hunter. Just as they thought who was causing those arrows. Currently Justin Point was filled with 4000 church members overtaking the city. Anyone would think that one human would be no match for them but clearly that was incorrect.
Until now Justin Point was protected and ruled by them but Jaehwang was ready to put that to an end. When the very first attack begin Sofia was standing in the lead.
Behind her was he five minions of church members with weapons in their hands. They would do anything for their precious Sofia.
Takk… Takkk…
Sofia reached out her hand and a small spark came from her palm.
The beginning of that was very weak. However, a few moments later her entire body was covered with sparks exploding everywhere. A few moments after it went on for awhile Sofia spoke.
“Explode.”
Pong! Pong! Pong! Pong!
In the very moment as she spoke the sparks begin to explode and cover the Oaks at the bottom of the wall.
“Ahhh!!”
Pong!
It wasn’t just a simple harmless explosion. It was an electric shock that caused the Oaks at the bottom of the wall lots of pain. The explosion didn’t end there.
Pong! Pong! Pong! Pong!
Instantly hundreds of Oaks were getting injured and even killed by the explosion and in no time all of the injuries and deaths added up to 50.
But, that wasn’t even the beginning of it.
“Burn them!”
Pang! Pang! Pang! Pang!
Giant thunder like streaks began to come out of the palm of her hands. The thunder streaks reached up to almost 50 meters and was enough to reach every Oak that was there.
The church members also helped Sofia by attacking the Oaks while they were down.
They took all of their weapons and their armor.
Pang! Pang! Pang!
Intense clouds of smoke were floating up into the sky. An orange light began to spread across the ground and surround the screaming Oaks.
Swoosh!
Kwang Kwang Kwang! Whooshhh!
Many flames were falling onto the ground… There was a semi big explosion as they fell to the ground killing dozens of Oaks each time.
Kwang Kwang Kwang Kwang!
However, of course the most impactful attack was the missiles.
They launched more missiles and they all began to fall from the sky at random times and powerfully hit to the ground.
The missiles had a high chance of missing the Oaks and not causing any impact but if they hit Halcan then he was sure to not survive.
However, they weren’t do their job very well.
The Oaks continued to run on the wall to escape to the neighborhood with most of them, even Halcan, avoiding the missiles.
Someone else then attacked at them.
Kwang kwang! Kwang Kwang! Kwang Kwang kwang!!
“Ahhhh!”
“Church members!”
“Help us, please!”
The Oaks shouted for help but no one came to their rescue.
As the attacks began to aim at the wall many Oaks died trying to escape.
Sofia watched nervously.
The missiles could have been a big mistake on their part. If Halcan was able to avoid them then they made a big mistake. But, how could he have escaped them? That would be impossible.
“Prepare the nuclear weapon!”
“Yes, ma’am!”
Sofia shouted and one of her minions went to request the weapon to be prepared.
They flew through a special airplane route and retrieved the nuclear weapon and quickly made their way back to the tragic scene.
“There it is.”
Halcan mumbled to himself with an angry look on his face.
There was a special weapon that he found that could help him.
It was something that he remembered receiving training with.
“Darn it! There’s no way this will work.”
He just stared at it on the ground for a moment.
Although he was hesitant he has no choice. It was his last hope.
“Ugh… This won’t be good.”
Maybe if he was still in his throne then it would be easy to simply command it. However, now he was in a different position. He couldn’t just demand things, he had to think through the decision carefully on his own. His life depended on it.
“Huh?”
Halcan then saw something strange.
While he was debating on rather to use his secret weapon or not he saw that the wall had already completely broken down.
It seemed to have been mostly destroyed by lots of arrows that he noticed stuck in the pieces.
There was nothing left of it. He then even noticed a human leisurely standing in the distance. He couldn’t believe it.
The person standing there was still shooting dozens of arrows. It was impossible to count how many there were flying through the air.
How could someone shoot so many arrows so fast?
#2
Swooshhh!
There was an arrow flying towards Jaehwang’s direction. However, instead of hitting him it just flew right by him.
Kwang kwang kwangg! Whoosh! Whoosh!
There was a big explosion followed by loud screams. Jaehwang continued shooting arrows with no interruptions. He didn’t have to move his feet at all. The arrows did all the work along with his strength.
“Let’s take a look now.”
They calculated the locations they haven’t gotten yet and begin to launch some arrows in those directions.
The Oaks were very strong creatures but even they were clearly no match for Jaehwang’s archery talent.
-Your accuracy rate is good, your strength is good and your speed is the same as usual.
-Okay. So how will my level increase if I keep going like this?
His speed would have usually slowed down by now but everything was still going good.
But, those Oaks were very far away so that made things a little more difficult but despite that he still wasn’t too worried.
It wasn’t the same as trying to capture a monster.
That fact was very obvious. Catching a monster would take a lot more strength and effort.
“Take it easy.”
Jaehwang was killing hundreds of Oaks. It was just that he didn’t have to use such intense attacks like ‘Arrow Shower’ to do that. Just the simple arrow attack would be more than enough.
He then took the spirit’s advice and started to take it easy.
As Halcan watched from the distance he was surprised to see that Jaehwang was a bit of a cautious person.
Halcan then suddenly started to walk towards him.
But, the moment he got close to him.
Bong! Kiikiikk
Hundreds of arrows began to fly all over the place.
Pieces of the wall were still falling and other pieces that were already on the ground were exploding into smaller pieces due to arrows flying into them. Jaehwang stood from a high safe place watching everything.
“It lasted for a long time.”
His speed started to slow down but the impact of the arrows didn’t. He was ready to just stand and watch. Halcan then got close enough to see his face a little.
-Spirit?
-Huh?
-You ready?
-Yes!
The spirit said excitedly.
-The goal is the same as before.
-I’m ready!
The spirit replied. Jaehwang then prepared to launch another arrow.
-Okay?
-Yes!
‘Unique Moving Arrow’
Whoosh!
The arrow then flew up into the sky. There was a light of red energy around the arrow. It was the spirit. She was helping by making the speed of the arrow much faster than usual. Jaehwang’s ‘Moving arrow’ was already his fast arrow so with the help of the spirit it was even more fast and powerful.
After flying way up into the air the arrow came flying down towards the ground.
The spirit then left go of the arrow.
A few Oaks noticed the arrow coming towards them but it was already too late by then. The arrow was flying to the ground at the speed of light.
The spirit’s hands then became engulfed with energy as she continued to focus her strength on the arrow.
She then made a giant dense shield to block Jaehwang from getting affected by the attack.
“Ahhh!!”
“We have to find cover, everyone!”
“Hey! It’s that girl again!”
As the spirit stood in the distance completing her part of the attack some of the Oak soldiers recognized her from when they saw her at the Daehyeon clan’s party that day.
Jiiijjjiiiikkk!
The arrow was covered in energy being controlled by the spirit’s power. The moment the arrow reached the ground there was a huge explosion.
“Ahhhh!!!!”
Pongg!!!
Hunting for Prey, The end.
