Level Battles 10

He is alive

Shrouding light slowly vanished, and the enemy was still standing on his spot. Son of Xura observed that the disappearance of the hunter meant something, so he was very clear about the possible battle outcome. He was a brutal scalawag among his generation.

Wherever he went with the others, many hunters faced his wrath. He was merciless, he even robbed countless hunters in his journey. Being the son of the merchant, he had been studying numerous scripts about all types of stones. He was well versed with the usage of these stones and their importance.

How could he remain ignorant and oblivious to the fact that Qiao was no ordinary enemy? The stronger stone in his hand took the attack and absorbed the energy. The fellow hunters heaved a sigh of relief seeing the team leader alive. 

The water creatures were also amazed that the hunter survived the powerful attack. They were no more feeling enthusiastic than before. Dragging and fussing over the hostility would not bring harmony to them so half of them went back in the stream. 

Those who left early happened to be lower-level creatures, they were worried about their own lives. The remaining of them wanted to see the outcome of this battle fold in front of them.

Qiao nodded, seeing a stronger stone in the hands of the ignorant fella but his keenness in no way proved that he was wise enough. Qiao on the other hand did not mind dragging the battle. It will be evening soon and hopefully; he was in the mood to continue attacks and chase until the enemy face his end.

Qiao could no longer hide the glint in his eyes. One thing which he felt quite optimistic about was that when the battle would end, there would be several spoils.

Though he cannot claim them as his own in the light of the job that he had been recruited for and not the other way around. It was not disappointing because he was sure that this battle would let him learn a few things other than the fate of the enemy.

"You are just the bargaining dog of the Hightown." Son of Xura voiced, sinisterly. The visible expressions of hatred were evidence that he was glad after giving this surprise.

"It is better to be a loyal dog than to be an opportunistic snake." This was a proverb in the advanced world, quite famous in the times. 

The disturbed stream water dampened the surroundings a bit. The fallen leaves had nowhere to go since the air was silent.

Qiao attacked again, he cannot stop and think about what he should do and what not. Once the battle begins it can only get brutal and nothing else. He has lots of stones, to begin with, his strength was also boosted after seeing that the real enemy was right in front of him.

Son of Xura heard his words and shook his head. "I will trample this attitude of yours soon." He pointed his finger at him, aggressively. 

"There were few that thought the same and they eventually lost existence. You can also try." Qiao shrugged his shoulders, critically observing the stone which absorbed the attack.

His needle-like words pierced the confidence of the enemy. Son of Xura was unable to stand it anymore, he gestured his comrades to attack him simultaneously.

Qiao understood that his stone cannot attack or else the powerful stone could have changed the tide of the battle. They attacked him, Qiao used his weapon for redirecting the attack range. In the presence of so many attacks, he cannot keep jumping around to avoid a direct hit. Few of the redirected attacks troubled the creatures standing on the sidelines, the distance was large among them, and yet they were baffled.

They glared at Qiao. The stream water constantly flooded out because of the attacks crashing against the water surface. Soon the attacks brought chaos for the water creatures and they all gang up. They formed a big crowd and marched towards the reckless hunters. It was like a crawling dead army coming out from the paths of the streams. They were tired of both the hunters and their unfair methods.

Son of Xura saw this and retreated. He was much afraid seeing so many creatures coming to them suddenly. They both stepped back, hurriedly. Qiao was shocked too however he was well aware of what caused this massive threat.

There was no way to retreat or distance himself from the streams. The creatures kept moving forward until they were sure that they had created enough distance when they finally decided to return.

The stronger creatures could have attacked at once and see how both of them struggled to survive but they decided to watch the show and see who will remain alive after the exchange of hot arguments.

Curiosity was a thing. 

Son of Xura halted, seeing that the creatures were leaving. He was thinking that perhaps Qiao would escape taking this opportunity, but he did not move an inch.

Qiao was thinking that his enemy might skip his eyes but none left in the end.

The tension increased in the air. Both attacked at the same time. Qiao held his weapon firm. It was an advantage that he could fend off the attack with the weapon. It saved him from a lot of trouble compared to the enemy.

Son of Xura was constantly avoiding the attacks which of course slightly left some marks. No matter how deftly and diligently a hunter stops the attack, the range of the attack still affects the performance and it eventually harms the hunter. 

He was also attacking because it was necessary to keep the other two rascals engaged while they waited for an opportunity to attack.

One of his stones lost the limit and fell on the ground, black dead. The attacks sucked dry the stored energy. Qiao held another, He was not using his level eight stone because his enemy could also use the previous stunt, he was not sure that how many hidden cards he had up his sleeve. Facing all those hidden cards might bring another day with the ongoing battle since his investment of time was limited. 

He looked around, he might have gladly kept this going on however it should end sooner or later.

Qiao created distance in between the next few attacks and the hunter noticed it. It was time to use the old trick, confuse the enemy then give them a big surprise. Qiao hurled a long jump and hid behind the bigger tree.

Son of Xura gritted his teeth. "You are again playing hide and seek." Called out, his exhausted voice.

He was also using normal stones for the attacks. Using the stronger stone brings threats too. It was only for life-threatening situations. 

"It's my favorite game, would you play dumb?" Qiao chuckled.

His sarcasm can fuel the rational hunter. Here the enemy was already dumb so it was clear that he would be fuelled immediately. 

Qiao was right.

Son of Xura yelled and ran in his direction. He thought that perhaps his premonition might come true and Qiao would escape right under his nose... Well, Qiao had something different planned.

The stone attacks can go on forever because both were level seven while his enemy has the advantage with two of his fellow men. Using normal methods would only drag the battle longer. 

The whole third Sepedra continuously shoved the water in the various streams causing some strange rhythm in the surrounding. Despite the fact the water was in abundance source still the natural blanket of the weather was a normal fashion of the place. 

The water type habitat and the creatures keep their bodies damp no matter if they were inside or outside of the water source. There was a level eight creature. This creature was able to develop the natural distinction. The changed circumstances or the opponent cannot defeat it easily. 

Currently it was the strongest creature in the third Sepedra successfully living without getting attention of the Hightown. This creature could easily destroy this island with the current level of power. 

It usually wander in the island during night and the sole reason why most of the other water type creatures remain hidden in the night. This creature feed on the other stronger creatures or kill them out of whim. 

The Hunter association did not get any report because none of the hunter spend night in the third Sepedra for the fear of the water type monsters. Qiao felt the same strangeness in this island. He was curious why the island was silent in the night and only the low rhythm flow of water can be heard. 

No would know about it unless someone personally witness and report in the hunter association. The stone shining in his head of the creature was precious and Son of Xura was expecting it to get it. This was the reason that he decided a long stay here.
