Chapter 1288: I Will Hunt the Hillmen

The girl’s injuries healed fairly quickly with the help of a Healer. Liu Xiaojia’s Healing Element was surprisingly impressive.

The girl’s wounds had started to mend. She was now covered by Mo Fan’s T-shirt, and had yet to fully recover from her shock.

It was not her first time going on an adventure as a Hunter, but it was definitely her first time experiencing anything so bizarre.

Many Hunters thought death was the worst possible outcome when facing demon creatures, but there were times where death was far from the worst!

“Where are the others?” Mo Fan asked.

Mo Fan remembered there were more people than the bodies left behind. There had to be others who were still alive...

“That way, there are around three or four of them that are still alive!” The girl pointed at the gray woods.

“Rest here. I’ll slay those Hillmen and save your friends!” Mo Fan said.

Mo Fan quickly cast the Summoning Spell while he was talking. A great wolf with snow-white hair leapt out from a lunar-white crack, leaving a trail of frost across the ground with an imposing aura.

Mo Fan jumped onto the Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s back before taking off at a crazy speed, disappearing into the woods in the blink of an eye.

The rest of the group had envious looks as they watched Mo Fan’s handsome back fading into the distance.

The guy was around their age, yet how was he so cool and flashy!?

“Mo Fan is so strong. He killed the Warrior-level monster like it was just a little creature...” the male students exclaimed.

Liu Xiaojia’s eyes were brimming with admiration. It was her first time seeing such a powerful Mage around her age. Most importantly, he looked so handsome when he was angry. He was overflowing with masculine charm!

“Speaking of which, these Hillmen are showing up too frequently. It feels like they are showing up at every Giant Purple Linden,” Zhao Manyan said to Lingling, looking at the tall Giant Purple Linden behind him.

“Mm, I’m afraid the Hunters have become the hunted instead. It seems these Hillmen are well aware of our greed. They know we will keep showing up at the Giant Purple Lindens, so they just need to wait at the Giant Purple Lindens and ambush us, or find a way to split the teams up, or strike when two groups are at their weakest state after fighting one another. Either way, they are like a bunch of hunters waiting for their prey to lower their guard. I’m afraid there will be more casualties on Mount Kunyu than we thought!” Lingling agreed. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by ɴovel(F)ɪre

“Let’s hope Mr. Gao is able to convince the government to send some backup. The situation should improve once the army intervenes and evacuate the Hunters that are here for the money. They thought it was a great chance to earn some quick money, yet it turned out to be a slaughter!” Lingling sighed.

1Hillmen had been showing up close to the Giant Purple Lindens to ambush the humans that had come for the demon crests. It had proven to be very effective.

Most groups were not strong enough to face the Hillmen. Even those that were strong enough still struggled after they were set up by the cunning creatures!

——

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf took a deep breath, searching for the scent of the Hillmen.

Due to their brutal habits, it was a lot easier for Mo Fan to track them down. The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was able to capture the scent of blood in the air easily, allowing him to locate his targets.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was much faster than the Hillmen. Mo Fan soon noticed a few bulky figures after following the scent trail for a few kilometers. The figures were carrying some incomplete bodies on their shoulders. Mo Fan couldn’t tell if the people were still alive!

Mo Fan completely lost his temper when he saw the Hillmen and smelled the stench of blood lingering in the air!

“Shadow Imprisonment!”

A few shadow daggers appeared in Mo Fan’s hands and slowly vanished in the air. They soon reappeared close to the three Hillmen!

The daggers nailed the shadows of the Hillmen accurately, sealing off their waists and necks and greatly impairing their movement.

“Get your ass over here!” Mo Fan split his will into three parts, grabbing at the Hillmen. It forcibly lifted the creatures into the air and dragged them back to him.

The Hillmen shrieked like apes. They tossed their prey down and tried to flee for their lives, but these Warrior-level creatures had no chance of breaking free from Mo Fan’s Shadow Imprisonment and Space Magic!

“You enjoy torturing humans when they are still alive right? I guess I’ll burn you alive, then!” Mo Fan snapped.

Mo Fan strengthened the Shadow Imprisonment. The creatures could not even struggle. Mo Fan further applied Gravity Space to the creatures. The three Hillmen could not even budge.

Mo Fan soon set up a burning ‘hanging post’. The flames slowly rose and crawled onto the Hillmen.

Mo Fan perfectly controlled the temperature of the flames, so they would not burn the creatures to death too quickly, maximizing the pain they had to go through!

As Mo Fan was about to strengthen the flames to inflict more pain on the Hillmen, a figure over three meters jumped out from the bush to his right and swung its sharp claws at his chest!

The creature’s speed when moving and striking was so fast that it looked like a brown blur flickering past. It immediately threatened Mo Fan!

“Awoo~!” The Flying Creek Snow Wolf was no mere decoration. He leapt and pounced on the Hillman while it was still in mid-air. He was providing cover while Mo Fan was busy ‘roasting’ the creatures.

“Well done!” Mo Fan complimented the wolf.

He set up the flames and quickly headed to the people, having no idea if they were alive or dead. He should be saving the people first.

There were three of them, two men and a woman. They were from the two groups of Hunters that were fighting one another. The two men had their limbs torn off. The Hillmen had most likely done so to prevent them from fighting back.

The woman was still in good condition, and was barely injured. She was only unconscious from overwhelming fright.

It was a great relief amid the misfortune. Mo Fan was quite confused why the Hillmen did not tear her limbs off like the others...

The three Hunters were still alive. If he was any slower, the Hillmen would most likely have dragged them off to a remote cave and enjoyed torturing them slowly. It was obvious that the Hillmen were not killing humans just to fill their stomachs. They were torturing humans to entertain themselves!

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf howled. An icy gust swept past, knocking down all the trees within a hundred meters.

A Hillman over three meters tall was moving nimbly among the falling trees. It managed to dodge the Flying Creek Snow Wolf’s attack.

It continued to back away while staring at the three Hillmen that Mo Fan had set on fire. It quickly realized how tough of an opponent the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was. It jumped onto the trunk of a tree and held on like an ape.

The Hillman was surprisingly quick when it was moving between the branches and the trees. Even the Flying Creek Snow Wolf was having a hard time catching up to it.

The Flying Creek Snow Wolf howled furiously and knocked down the trees acting as obstacles. Unfortunately, the Hillman was just too quick. It glared at Mo Fan and the Flying Creek Snow Wolf before quickly disappearing into the woods!

“Stop chasing, that creature is pretty tough. It’s a Commander too!” Mo Fan called the Flying Creek Snow Wolf back. He was having difficulty carrying the three people on his own, so he needed the Flying Creek Snow Wolf to do the manual labor.

Mo Fan quickly used Blood Serums and Bone-connecting Ointment to treat the Hunters’ injuries. It was enough to help them live until they regrouped with Liu Xiaojia and the others.

“Let me go, let me go!” the woman who was barely injured suddenly screamed and Summoned a strong blast of wind.

The wind flew right at Mo Fan. She was so terrified that she could not even tell who was friendly!

“Calm down, you’re fine now.” Mo Fan waved his hand and shattered the woman’s Wind with his Telekinesis.

The Wind Maga was stunned. She did not expect the man to nullify her Wind Disc just by waving his hand!

The woman soon noticed the three Hillmen burned into charcoal. She let out a relieved sigh and thanked Mo Fan.

“I already warned you guys, but none of you listened. There are times when you shouldn’t be so greedy. You still have other chances to make money, but you only live once,” Mo Fan sighed. This woman was actually quite lucky considering what happened to the other girl and Guo Muzhuang...

“They are all dead... what exactly are these things?” The woman burst into tears.

“They are Hillmen, a species that enjoys torturing humans. The previous ruler of Mount Kunyu is dead, so lots of demon creatures have come for the Giant Purple Lindens. To these creature’s delight, the Hunters kept feeding themselves to them! Therefore, these Hillmen ended up holding a feast by hunting the Hunters, after learning their patterns,” Mo Fan explained.

The woman opened her mouth in disbelief.

However, after what she had gone through, and seeing her two teammates with their limbs torn off, she had no choice but to accept the truth.

“We’ve already sent someone to alert the government and army,” Mo Fan went on.

“Then what are you doing here still? Aren’t you supposed to be running too?” The woman seemed a little confused.

Mo Fan looked at the Wind Maga. He had to admit that she was a beautiful woman. She had a ponytail and an attractive face, while her skin was as smooth as milk. Mo Fan would definitely go crazy if such a beautiful woman died a horrible death at the hands of the Hillmen!

“Why should I be running?” Mo Fan stood up. He looked at the burned remains of the Hillmen and said sternly, “It will take the government and the army some time to reach here, so before that, I will kill as many Hillmen as I can!”

The woman looked at Mo Fan with a blank expression.

She did not expect such words from a man who seemed younger than she was. However, she felt he was strong enough to make good on his boasts. Otherwise, how did he manage to save her and her teammates from the Hillmen?
