117. Hunting

The running crowd was like a stone thrown into a calm pond, and immediately rippled up layers of waves around the stone.

A feather arrow flew from the sky with a roar. With a "bang" sound, it landed less than three feet away at the foot of the young demon antelope responsible for keeping watch. The sharp cluster of arrows plunged deep into the rock formation. The wooden shafts were swaying continuously at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and the momentum gradually decayed.

The demon antelope widened his eyes in horror. When he looked at the feather arrows on the ground, he immediately tensed every muscle in his body. The long horns of his upright immediately turned into a fighting posture. His big eyes looked around in panic, and he was anxiously seeing the orcs running from afar.

With a long hiss, the Demon Antelope was the first to issue a warning voice.

The flock of demon antelopes that were originally eating grass silently stopped immediately, and it became extremely quiet at this moment. The ram leader raised his head first and looked at the young demon antelope in confusion. Then he finally turned to find the orcs who were still rushing towards the distance. Seeing them waving the stone-capping rope in their hands, he also had a long hissing sound. The four hooves collapsed and suddenly jumped high, rushing towards the other side of the grass slope. The remaining dozens of demon antelopes followed the ram leader and ran in panic.

In an instant, the tender grass clippings on the Shagangyang slope were trampled by the chaotic flock of sheep and the leaves flew around.

Instead of rushing towards the back slope of Shagang as we thought, they ran to the other side along the Shagang earth slope.

Just like a breeze, the speed of the demon antelope running with its hooves is terrifying. Every time they jump, they can jump out of seven or eight meters. I can see it very clearly on this side. I think even Katerina's terrifying speed may not be able to catch up with these demon antelopes.

I turned around and looked at Katerina who was staying beside me, and found that she had begun to clench her fists nervously, staring at the leader of the demon antelope.

Actually, I was squatting in the grass on the easternmost side of Shagang. In order not to attract the attention of the demon antelope, Katerina even lay in the grass. I was also the easternmost end of the trap belt, and Chige was on the other side one kilometer away from me. These two points of us were formed with the northern trap belt and Kuz on the south side, but it seemed that our hunting plan was a bit like a joke. Not to mention the small number of people, just one side is Katerina and me on one side, and Chige on the other side.

Before leaving, Gerile and the female orcs walked casually and chatted. If Gerile hadn't led the team, I think they would probably run away directly. The orcs in their thick dialect were full of suspicion and distrust of us.

At this time, these sheep rushed towards me. I originally wanted to be lazy but did not drive the sheep with Kuz. I guess the flock would have the greatest chance of turning around and running back slope. Secondly, they would have to escape to both sides, or choose one direction to break through, and finally they would have to run scatteredly. These situations may happen. The probability of running towards me will not be more than 30%. My purpose was to be lazy, so I accepted the task of blocking the escape passage of the demon antelope in the east.

However, I guess in the eyes of those female orcs, the leading male orcs only needs to lower the long horns on their heads and step on my body directly, so that I can easily rush over. I may be picked up high on the long horns by the crazy male orcs, moaning in pain. How could it be possible to block the strong female orcs? When the female orcs who came around from the far side and shook the long stone-capping rope in their hands saw the panic of demons rushing towards me like crazy, a figure suddenly rushed out of the crowd, and got the speed of the figure running and turned itself into afterimages, leaving behind.

In such a highway, I couldn't even see her face clearly. I could only tell from the outfit of a female orc that it was not Kuz.

She called loudly, and a long whistle sound came from her mouth.

"That's Grile!" Qige covered his mouth and looked at Grile, who was running faster and faster on the grass in surprise, and lay beside me and said to me.

I saw Gerile waving the catapult rope in his hand, trying to rush to the front of the demon antelope flock, block the running momentum of the demon antelope, or let them change direction. Maybe she kept thinking, I'm just pretending to be here, okay. A seven or eight-year-old human boy blocking the demon antelope flock, isn't that asking for death?

Her speed was far faster than the beast girls behind her, not to mention Kuz who fired an arrow from a very long distance on the way. The guy dragged his tongue and panted behind him, exhausted and unable to catch up with any beast girls. The pebbles the size of Gerile's fist flew over like a meteor and hit a demon antelope directly, making a sound like a hit on the broken leather.

But in the chaos, I could only hear the roar of the demon antelope. The sheep's speed was not reduced by half, but instead increased the speed of the entire flock again and continued to run towards me.

I stood up from the grass, held the hunting rifle in my hand and aimed at the leading male demon antelope. I lowered my head and asked in a low voice to Katerina on the side, "Are you sure you can protect yourself?"

"If you don't have time to chant the spell, or if the spell is chanted wrongly, I will hold you and run away. My 'instant flash' is very fast!" Katerina tried hard to calm herself down and forced a smile to me.

I know that no matter how I persuade her, it is difficult to persuade her to leave. There is no way. She is a girl who is stubborn and difficult to convince others. She is worried about my safety, and even this worry is greater than her life, so she will take the risk of following me, and she does this in front of Qige. As Qige's personal maid, I don't know what kind of trouble it will bring to her. I think I should talk about this with Qige carefully when I look back, and I find that I have fallen in love with this timid and kind red-haired girl, not for anything else, but for her wholeheartedly to treat me.

Now, I no longer feel that faint touch in my heart. When danger comes, she should have stood together and faced me. I accept her concern and I also want to release my concern for her. So I said, "Once I can't stop the flock of sheep, then you hug me quickly. I should be able to take you to cast the 'Shadow Cloak'. Sister Guoguo and I tried it like this, I can do it."

I repeated my words again. In a blink of an eye, the demon antelope flock was about to rush to my attack range. Countless shallow trajectories have appeared in my spiritual sea. Before the trajectory is reached, the tentacles of the giant tentacle monster, the other end of these trajectories are connected to each demon antelope rushing towards me, and the illusory trajectories in my eyes are also constantly shortening.

My thoughts only turned a little, and I was thinking about the leader of the Demon Antelope. The next moment, there was only the only line that was connected to the leader of the Demon Antelope in my eyes, and the phantom's sight also happened to be on the trajectory line.

The magic power was injected into the hunting rifle with my hand. After a moment, the light of the hunting rifle flashed. With a "bang", a fire burst out from the muzzle. A copper bean drew a long red line and shot on the forehead of the leader of the Demon Antelope, and sparked sparks. The huge impact force pushed the leader of the Demon Antelope's head to rise high, and the white hair on the forehead was burnt.

My perception attached to the copper pea. I clearly felt the moment when the copper pea exploded on the sheep's head, and the scorching sparks shot out. Some semi-circular and unrounded copper pea smashed the sheepskin that hit the skull of the Demon Antelope, but it was deeply embedded in the skull. The pain made the Demon Antelope raise their two front hooves high, and rushed forward while galloping rapidly. The body twisted directly to the left in the air, suddenly changed direction, and fled north.

The flock of sheep was also trying hard to adjust the sharp turn. The demon antelope that was running too aggressively could not stop its body and fell out in such a big turn. However, most of the demon antelope still completed this difficult action, continued to follow the leader and rushed forward together.

I was so scared that I watched the group of demon antelope turn the direction fifty or sixty meters away from me. Then I let out a long breath, pressed the hunting rifle on my shoulder, and patted Katerina who was behind me who only hugged my waist. This girl was wearing a hard leather armor. It was definitely not a pleasure to hug me behind me. The leather armor was so uncomfortable.

Qige in the distance also waved to me and congratulated me on my successful blocking. At this time, Kuz held the alloy bow and caught up with Gerile who was staring at me in a daze. This girl was frightened by my gun. The power of the silver-plated hunting rifle was completely beyond her imagination. She actually faced the demon antelope and hit the demon antelope's skull, which could also injure the demon antelope. This power was very impressive.

The flock of sheep rushed to the back slope of Shagang together after more than ten seconds and disappeared in our eyes.

Kuz and I looked at each other, and strode over with our weapons. Then we heard the sound of ice shattering from behind Shagang, followed by another sound. The cold air instantly spread, and the screams of the demon antelope were endless. Kuz and I walked to Shagang together and looked down. More than twenty demon antelopes of different sizes were lying on the grass. Almost every sheep's legs were frozen, and the ice marks spread to the knees.

And dozens of demon antelope still broke through the trap belt and fled to the northwest.
