Chapter 242: Unfortunate guy

242- Unfortunate guy

After running continuously for 10 kilometers, Orochi decided to take a small break.

Of course, he is not tired.

And how can be tired after running for just 10 kilometers?

His Stamina stat is in four digits, and the fatigue limit has also crossed the Million mark, so how can he be tired?

Orochi took a look at his status window and looked at the fatigue bar, and a smile formed on his face,

Fatigue: 212123/ 1397500

Just about 20% of the fatigue limit is filled, so even he continues running, he can reach his destination.

But although he is eager to group up with Armelia and June, a cautious person like him will not overwork himself and put himself at risk.

Imagine, he ran continuously until he encounters a Human stage enemy, and his fatigue limit has reached 50%.

Then how dangerous the situation could become?

Although, 50% doesnt sound much, but in a life and death situation, being in peak condition is the best thing any person hopes for.

So, he decided to take a small rest.

Outside of the town of the Chans, there is neither a forest nor deserted plains. Instead, lush grasses covered the whole field.

And in these fields filled with lush grasses, here and there a couple of tall trees can be spotted.

So, without much thought, Orochi spotted the tallest tree in his surroundings and climbed it.

As soon as he climbed the tree, he activated the Stealth ability and made sure to sit in such a position that he would not be spotted easily and also be comfortable.

He then took out the special drink from his storage ring, which he prepared in his free time.

The so-called special drink was made by mixing some herbs and one drop of Stalactite milk.

Here the main ingredient is that same drop of stalactite milk.

Although he is a miser, when it comes to things related to foods and drinks, Orochi never hesitates to spend.

And his way of using a rare and expensive resource like Stalactite milk can only be done by those from the rich families in the Empire.

Yes, Empire not the Kingdoms.

The special drink has the effect of relieving fatigue and making the whole body energetic.

So, he prepared a few bottles in case of need.

.

After resting for a few minutes, Orochi felt almost all the fatigue was gone, so he decided to continue his running marathon.

But just when he prepared to climb down the tree, he heard some footsteps.

With the Stealth ability active, Orochi hid his body and looked in the direction from which the footsteps could be heard.

A few seconds later, a man stopped a few meters away from Orochis location.

The man was none other than the middle aged guy who attacked Orochi with the spear when he climbed the wall.

After identifying the person, Orochi smirked and thought inwardly,

If you had obediently stayed in the town of Chans and did not come out, you could have lived for few more days. But unfortunately, you wanted to be a Explorer-cum-Chaser'. Sigh... anyway you wont have any regrets because you will be my EXP soon.

Right now, the middle aged guys condition was not good.

He was gasping for breath and all his clothes were drenched with sweat.

It looked like the middle aged guy ran all the way here without resting.

This guy really has low stamina.

Unlucky for him, Orochi was even happier to see this, because he wont have to spend much time and effort to solve this guy.

The middle aged guy kept looking at the surroundings because he has been following Orochis traces, but now that he has reached here, he was confused to see that Orochis traces have suddenly disappeared.

So, he was hoping to see any small clue left and continue the chase.

.

Orochi observed the middle aged guy, and as he was in Stealth he wanted to deliver a killing blow in a single shot. Hence, he did not take action because the middle aged guy was still alert.

And also, there was a problem that has prevented Orochi from taking action.

That is, he is not able to determine his correct cultivation level.

Although, with the observation skill he found that the middle aged guy had a cultivation of Human stage, but one must know that there are still sub levels in the Human stage.

It is said that there are 12 levels in the Human stage.

So, at what level is this middle aged guys cultivation, is what bugging Orochi for some time.

After thinking for a few seconds, Orochi thought,

What is there to be scared of? Even if he is stronger than I thought, all I have to do is deactivate [Stat locking function], and I can kill this guy easily.

Even if Ethan was still alive, I am sure to kill him easily.

So, with that idea in his mind, Orochi decided to make the move.

He first ordered the system to release his 50% stats and he then took out the tomahawk that he obtained from the Leading guard and immediately threw it towards the middle aged guy, who was standing with his back facing towards his direction.

Whoosh

Swish

And he also jumped down from the tree and dashed towards the middle aged guy at a fast speed.

The middle aged guy was also an expert, so when he heard the sound of wind coming from behind, he immediately dodged to the side.

And just when he dodged, the tomahawk stuck to the place he was standing.

It was like if the middle aged guy reacted a 0.1 second late, then the tomahawk would not have missed its target.

Of course, the tomahawk was just a Normal Grade level 7 weapon, so it would not have harmed the middle aged guy even if he stood like a statue.

Although it was relieving to see that he dodged at the proper time, his luck was truly bad.

Because the next instant his back was struck by a heavy kick.

BANg

Puff

His spine was almost broken by this, and he was seriously injured by this attack such that he immediately vomited a mouthful of blood.

Bang

Not to mention, because of this attack, his body flew like a ragged doll, more than 20 meters away, and landed heavily on the ground.

The middle aged guy almost passed away due to the pain, but he bit his teeth and tried to stay awake.

But he was suffering from heavy pain, which made him feel like hell.

When he tried to get up, he could hardly gather the will to move.

Somehow he turned his head and looked at the attacker.

His pupils shrank with fear when he saw his attacker.

It is was the same person, whom he chased for such a long distance.

He was able to recognize the figure because his eyesight is sharp and the figure was properly registered in his mind after he attacked him on the town wall with the spear.

He felt that the opponent was just a weak ant, hence he took action and chased without any fear, but now the situation has completely reversed.

He saw death looming over his body as his attacker approached him.

His attacker took out his sword and slashed across his neck.

And before the middle aged guy could utter a word, his eyes started to dilate and he died.
