Chapter 24: Being Hunted!
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Part of the magic core that Su Han had absorbed was also absorbed by his own flesh and blood.
Having increased by 0.2 levels, his current physical fitness had already surpassed that of a robust adult.
“The next step is to hunt monsters above tier-2,” Su Han muttered to himself. “After I stabilize my spiritual power, I’ll hurry home. It’s better not to participate in the matters of the Divine Treasure here.”
The ‘Floating’ wheel of law was completed in his hand. He jumped down, and his body slowly landed on the ground like a feather.
Just as he landed, Su Han faintly felt a movement in the distance.
He frowned slightly and raised his head to sniff the aura that was being activated.
“Demon Wolves! A large group of Demon Wolves, and there’s also the aura of a person!” Su Han thought to himself, ‘Not good.’
He was at a disadvantage, but for a creature like the Demon Wolves, their sensitive sense of smell allowed them to have the ability to track for a hundred miles.
That direction was the direction where he killed the three people. The sudden appearance of so many people gave Su Han a sense of danger.
Rangers with battle pets were very strong in the forest. If he fought them here, he would have no chance.
The Light Distortion the wheel of law.
The Aura Concealment the wheel of law.
Two wheels of law flashed in Su Han’s hands.
Su Han’s body quickly merged with the surrounding environment, and he entered the invisible state.
Not long after he left, Demon Wolves rushed out of the forest and came to the place where Su Han was before, barking crazily.
“Up there?” The black-cloaked ranger looked at the big tree coldly, and the cold light of the dagger flashed in his hand.
The tree immediately split into two from the middle and collapsed.
He frowned slightly, but did not find that person.
“Lord Shadow Hunter, the scent has stopped here. Our battle pets can’t search!” a Ranger reported.
“People don’t disappear,” he said expressionlessly. “He must have found us, so he used some method to hide his scent.”
At this moment, the dark purple Demon Wolf King sniffed around, suddenly raised its head, and ran in a certain direction.
The Shadow Hunter’s gaze swept over and shouted, “Keep up! My battle pet locked onto that person’s scent. Let’s go!”
As a tier-3 Demon Wolf King, its tracking ability far surpassed that of an ordinary Demon Wolf.
…
In a bush deep in the forest, Su Han was lying on the ground, carefully digging up a brown root plant.
Not long after, the root system was dug open, and inside were strings of tiny fruits. They were very dry, and after being gently crushed, they turned into powder.
Su Han immediately crushed the fruit and smeared it on his body.
“The dried powder of the Elk Root can not only hide my scent, and it can also interfere with the sense of smell of magical beasts.” Su Han smeared it on his body and praised, “The experience of the older generation of hunters has really benefited me immensely.”
With the powder of the Elk Root fruit, he no longer needed to be invisible at all times.
Su Han crouched in the bushes and carefully observed his surroundings, quickly moving to another place.
After a quarter of an hour, the tier-3 Demon Wolf King suddenly jumped out of the forest and landed where Su Han was before, roaring loudly.
One ranger after another followed with their magic wolves.
The Shadow Hunter frowned and said, “No, that person’s methods of hiding his aura are really endless!”
He turned his head and said, “Wolf King! Can we continue tracking?”
Achoo!
The Demon Wolf King sniffed and sneezed. He sniffed around and sneezed again.
The surrounding Demon Wolves all gathered up and sniffed left and right.
For a moment, the sneezes continued.
When the Shadow Hunter saw this situation, he immediately found something fishy. He squatted down and pinched a strand of brown powder on the ground. He frowned and said, “The powder of the Elk Root fruit! Someone who knows to use this kind of fruit to interfere with one’s sense of smell must be an experienced hunter!”
The Magic Wolf King summoned a strong wind and blew away the powder of the Elk Root fruit around it.
“Awoo!” It sniffed its swollen nose and ran in a certain direction furiously.
The more sensitive the creature’s nose was, the more it disliked this kind of pungent smell. The Wolf King, which had a hundred times the sense of smell of an ordinary Demon Wolf, naturally had to bear a hundred times the stimulation.
It was very angry.
“Wolf King, don’t move alone!” The Shadow Hunter frowned and quickly led the team to follow the Wolf King.
…
“If they can see through my invisibility and find the place with the Elk Root powder…” Su Han sat on an open wasteland, stroking his chin and thinking. “Then it proves that there is at least a Demon Wolf above tier-2!”
The man raised his head and looked thoughtfully at the three deep holes arranged in front of him.
“If they can find my position after finding the Elk Root powder and still find my position under the interference of their sense of smell… Then it proves that there is at least a Demon Wolf above tier-3.”
Su Han analyzed carefully. As the son of the strongest hunter in the village, Su Han had long absorbed all of his father’s experience into his mind.
He quickly stood up and used the three deep holes in front of the dead leaves and branches to cover up the traces around him.
This place was a trap left behind by his father when he was hunting. It was called Lianhuan Cave.
