Chapter 1497 Catching Up The Rank?
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“The gate is ready,” Zara informed him.He snapped out of his thoughts after hearing Zara’s voice, and Tang Shaoyang was quick to make a decision. He would not try to fight it. He reminded himself that he had a daughter and that he should not go crazy as before. If he died, he could not imagine how his daughter would grow up without him. Despite having five lives, he did not want to take the risk.
At the same time, the tiger calamity made his move. A shadow came out like a wave, blanketing the area.
Tang Shaoyang sensed the presence of the tiger calamity, moving toward the Doom Troll’s group. The creature chose the bigger meal. He then left the area with Zara.
As Zara closed the portal, she furrowed her brows, “How did they find us so quickly?”
She could not help but think about it. She was talking about the Doom Troll, not the tiger calamity, confused about how the troll found them so quickly. It took the Doom Trolls ten minutes to catch up despite using the portal gate.
“Maybe a trap? We triggered their trap for lizards?” He could not help but think about it. It was a detection spell for the lizard, and they triggered. Of course, it was just his assumption as there was no way for him to find out. He was not adept in magic, only knew what he learned from the skill.
Tang Shaoyang shrugged it off and followed the map once more, “Let’s try to move on the ground instead.”
The land was not so smooth because of the roots that came out from the trees. The giant root made the travel quite annoying. But in order to try their conjecture to avoid the troll’s detection. They chose the land path.
The journey was smooth as the trolls did not chase them anymore. They came out of the dark forest, returning to the star forest where The Calamity Starrek lived. During his journey in the star forest, it was another thing that was weird. He could not find a single group of Calamity Starrek.
As he traveled through the forest, he halted and then stopped Zara as well. The reason was that he found something stronger than the tiger calamity. It was a massive snake with twelve pairs of wings, flying past the forest.
It was more than a hundred and fifty meters tall with feathered black wings. It had a singular horn on its forehead, reaching twelve meters long. The scales were glowing in gold as if it was telling to look at it. A massive glowing snake at night, and yet no other calamities attacked it. It just proved how strong this snake was, confidently flying in the sky despite the glow and its massive size.
The aura he sensed was stronger than the tiger. He thought of using detection, but he was concerned that might get that snake angry. He kept the creature in mind and asked Madaki later what kind of calamity this snake was.
It took a while as the flying snake did not fly that fast. After making sure the snake was far enough, they continued. The remaining travel was quite safe, not encountering any high-ranking calamity.
The city was in sight, but trouble awaited him. The Sorc Clan was waiting at the city gate. This time thirty bear folks stayed outside the gate. More people were ready to go to an all-out fight.
“Hahh…” Tang Shaoyang let out a sigh, “Can’t they just focus on the trial instead? What’s the point of looking for me?”
“If it was before, they might ignore you after a few days, but not now. Your name is quite high in the ranking. They will get half of your points if they kill you.” Zara delivered the unfortunate news.
The Sorc Clan had justified reason to hunt him down after the clash earlier. If it was before he beat their people, they did not have a strong justification to gang up on one person. But now Tang Shaoyang gave them the reason.
“Tch,” Tang Shaoyang clicked his tongue, “Should we fight them and get it done?” He was quite annoyed that he did not finish his hunting. He needed three more Doom Lizards, but because of the troll. He had to leave before he could meet the quota.
“I don’t want to fight them right outside the gate…”
Now his name was on the ranking list. He did not want to show his power in front of many people. If the other participants watched the fight. They might think of a way to kill him to take the point. Especially when he was known as a solo participant. No faction backed him up, no friends that fought alongside him as well.
“Can’t you make the portal inside the city?”
Zara shook her head, “It’s not possible. There is something that prevented me from forming a portal inside the city. It seems like the System enforced the regulation of no skill inside the city.”
“I guess I have another idea,” Tang Shaoyang summoned Grade SS Spirit, Arkanos the Ice and Fire Blade.
Arkanos was a human, wearing plate armor with two blades on his back. He looked like a rogue knight, and he did not look suspicious at all. Since Zara could appear in the city, it meant summoning or a summon was not a problem inside the city.
“Go to the Madaki Store in the market!”
Arkanos followed his order, running as if he was being chased. It was quite good acting for someone who returned alone after the night hunting. He was quite fast and soon reached the gate. The Sorc Clan people stopped him, asking Arkanos to open the helmet.
After making sure it was not Tang Shaoyang. The Sorc Clan let Arkanos enter the city. The two old guards were quite sharp, sending a sharp glare to Arkanos. They found out that Arkanos was a summon, but they did not stop the rogue knight.
The plan was smooth, and Arkanos soon arrived at the market, right in front of Madaki’s store, “I have arrived, Master!”
Tang Shaoyang smiled as he recalled Zara then he switched position with Arkanos. The hunting for the day was over, “I should check my ranking first.”
Tang Shaoyang killed 166 Calamity Starrek and 497 Calamity Doom Lizards. It was quite a harvest even though it was just Rank 2 Calamity. With how efficient his party was, he could get that much in a day. He checked his point instead of the ranking.
[Tang Shaoyang – 11,703]
“It’s in the top ten, right?” He believed it was enough to enter the top ten list. Maybe that was the reason why the Sorc Clan sent more people after him.
