My Last Hunt

Chapter 327: Level Battles

Level Battles

Away from the scheming air of the Hightown; Qiao was heading toward the South Sepedra. The entire half part of the continent consisted on various small and big islands. Five bigger islands have one single hunter association and five distanced Nests. The open forest covers the most part of the South Sepedra while the human population and the towns were under the order of the association. The local hunters after getting missions from the association get involved in the hunting and explore various islands. The association used to send the hunters toward the Hightown later the elder suggested that most of the hunters get missing during journey so the Hightown gave permission. 

According to the permission; the hunters were oblige under the orders of the association until the level eight. Level seven hunters could easily explore the distanced continent which was separated by the huge sea. Several temporary bridges were built for the convenience of the hunters. The big sea and the nearest islands were filled with the water type monsters. Many of them spend their entire lifetime without gaining from the nature and leveling. Many races were enthusiastic for the leveling. Here in these areas most of the hunters were familiar with the sea monsters and how to them down. 

Hunters did not hunt in the open sea instead the level seven or up monsters develop their nature. They wander exploring the open forests and usually trouble the hunters in their way. Knowing that their increasing strength could bring threat; the association issue missions. Few of the hunters were obsessed with the water type spoils. They hunt them for the sake of Hightown. Hightown kept resources of all type and the hunters were recruited under the association for bringing rare type stones. These stones were used in urgent missions. 

For example Hightown reacts on some report about sea monster creating ruckus in some part of the seven continents; the Hightown immediately hire a Hunter King and hand over special type of stones for the battle. There were several reasons behind the reputation of the South Sepedra other than the water type monsters. The premises near the boundary lines revoke some of the rules of the Hightown; it was due to the presence of the beasts in that particular island. There were only few islands can be counted on fingertips where the beasts were in huge numbers. They were usually scattered. 

The locations pointed on the map and the actual places were moving; Qiao marked his stay points and decided not to halt his journey in between the locations. This would keep him away from the hassle. More of it; he would be able to calculate his real time skill grade and his approach. The most worrying aspect was that the world and forest were big and distance was real headache. Taming beast and using for the travel was another thing and Qiao cannot think about it before reaching level eight peak. Till then he was bound with his rush skill and no one can underestimate this skill. He was like wind and his pace defy the storms however it took strength and force. 

The purpose of the stay in the marked locations was clear. When he would reach his limits; he would stay and reinvigorate his strength by consuming reserved meat. This way his journey will continue smoothly. Qiao could feel the wind brushing past his stature. His fleece fluttered leaving upshot for the hearing of the monsters. They looked up only to meet the scattered leaves behind. They could tell that a strong hunter happened to be in hurry. 

Qiao was careful. He easily changed his paths after sensing the presence of the bigger monster in his way. This was wise choice. The Hightown also prohibit such tradition. If an area was reserved for the missions then the Hunter cannot overrule the orders and bother in another part of continent. In that case; Hightown simply ignore even if the hunter get injured or killed. There were proper explanations behind every issued order; anyone going against meant that he was immune to the damage and let him be what he wished. Qiao has his own reasons for following these orders. First of all he did not want to stray like cattle. 

He was here in this world for limited time and collecting every bit of information was entirely impossible. Following orders let him level up and become strong; also it guaranteed his life until now. Living breaths were necessary for facing the enemies. This helped him think serene and decide what was beneficial for him. Qiao was not in favor of leaving the enemies alive however sometimes saving life was the right option. At this level of his strength; he could easily trample bunch of tricksters. But he has no time to look at the low level hunters and glare them. 

His attentions were clear. Qiao was moving forward not just in his pace but the levels. This demanded facing the stronger monsters and enemies. So it kept his enthusiasm at the peak. The first marked location was near and he was losing his strength too. Qiao was exhausted after moving across several islands in one go. He was stronger than any other hunter of the same level. This level was envied in the eyes of many. Only five hunters from the thousands reach in this level. If talked about the time limit then there was no one. 

In the previous two thousand years; no one approached this time limit. If the beasts of the present day came to know this hidden secret then they would swarm around the hunter and kill him no matter if the entire number of Hunter Kings and the Hightown wanted to save him. This was direct threat to their plans. This feat resemble with the previous Hunter Monarch. After knowing this aspect Qiao was more careful; he cannot tell about his fate however it seemed that he should necessarily be a Hunter Monarch if he wanted to win against the old enemy. 

That hunter has several years of experience in the hunting and most definitely siding with the beasts or otherwise. In both cases; he was threat stronger than anything. Qiao halted his pace and searched the marked point. A safe cave or the hill was best for his stay. It was near the evening; this means he was rushing whole day. No one of the level eight primary can claim this pace. This journey also helped Qiao understand his upper limit in this Rush Skill. It was no way inferior which brought sense of ease and comfort. 

If fairly calculated his strength then he could certainly destroy a small island using his sole strength however the natural limits only allow a hunter vent out this struggle with the help of some stone. This means stones were also source of the personal strength in the battles. Hunters embed level strength in the stone and increase the force two fold. In this way; battling with the stronger monsters remained on the equal grounds. Taking Qiao as example; hence his strength has already tempered with his practice, he was strongest among the hunters of the same level. 

Qiao will be using insane strength and the force against his enemy sooner. He found a hill and settled there. There were no signs of any monster and it was silent. He could hear some of the howling in the distance though. It would no more give him trouble as long as the distance remains the same. Qiao brought out his water bottle and sipped. He was immensely glad after knowing his upper limit. According to the words of the senior hunter this type of upper approach was the sign of strongest force. 

Qiao shook aside the worry of his appearance. With the long and tiresome journey; his handsome features were concealed with the dust. His hair was standing its roots ends. The clean and elegant fleece was covered with the dust. His appearance remarkably got ruined in the first day of the journey. He has reason for ignoring it. The surrounding slowing turned dark. Qiao brought out the food reserve and munched on the meat. One could see satisfaction pasted on his face. He was relaxed and happy. 

There was someone at the next island. The huge meat human was traveling with other team members. He was selected in this team and working diligently however the team members were not as helpful and caring. 

They always hoot his big meat body and shout some vulgarities whenever they have time. Their terrible behavior was not acceptable but because he cannot leave the team; the hunter was patiently listening them. He was collecting some woods for the team because they ordered him to do so. The team got some damage in today's hunt and they were healing sitting near the cave. The hunter walked and collected the woods and returned back. He was tired of their orders now.
