Chapter 41: Headstrong Level One Chaser (13)
Headstrong Level One Chaser (part 13)
Grade B team wipe out:
Their initial plan to rob the youth and then make him ask to beg for mercy had seemingly failed. They were still running after him to save some face from the humiliation of being slapped by a youth.
They were all heavily panting, gasping for breath. But they could not stop for even a second. If they did, weren't they just making fun of themselves?
They were at level two and chasing after a level one, could they show that they were tired of simply running.
Of course not
"They are still coming strong, what's the plan?" the chaser chuckled and asked Qiao. He was getting involved in this matter by his own choice and he had well thought about it. If his team leader threw him out, he would not mind since he had already made up his mind to leave the team which did not bother to save him.
What was the use to work with such selfish people?
Compared to them, this youth seemed more reliable, though he had a little arrogance but there was something which fueled this arrogance.
"No plan," Qiao simply shrugged his shoulders and continued to run, "What is your name?' he asked this chaser's name who was taking this risk for no reason.
"I am called Quipu," he continued to follow behind Qiao and answered in lively spirits. He never felt enthusiastic about the monotonous hunts and the team policies.
He felt like his world was collapsing after being trampled by Qiao twice and then being abandoned and betrayed by his team. But now following after Qiao he felt strangely excited.
"Very well, Quipu we are going to hunt in freestyle, have you ever heard of freestyle?" as they were running, Qiao spoke and asked.
Quipu had of course never heard anything about it, in fact he was hearing this word for the first time.
"I have never happened to encounter deep knowledge of hunting," he answered as if the youth running by his side had much more knowledge about hunting.
Most of the information about the high level hunts and tactics were kept to the higher level hunters and they never shared their experiences for others to follow and get some idea.
Qiao shook his head, he was only using his knowledge of the twenty first century to beat these bullies.
"Freestyle means you don't have to use any strict rule of hunting, just hunt in whatever way you like and whatever move you want to use and what suits you best," as he was explaining the man running with the team leader near Qiao threw his chain to entrap his neck.
Qiao was already waiting for this move and knew that he was near. He turned as the chain cut near and caught the chain. Then with the momentum he threw it downward. As they all were still running, his sudden move proved a bombshell, the chaser who threw this chain got caught and simply fell down with the chain.
Quipu saw this and he again wanted to stop and clap for the youth. Who would have thought that this level two chain weapon can be rendered useless in the blink of an eye?
"Look at your left," Qiao quickly reminded Quipu who was still in awe of the move.
The team leader who in the meantime was able to reach near Quipu was getting ready for fatal attack on the chaser who was helping the youth. It was a mistake on his part and he had to make it right now by taking down this chaser. Few mistakes could be forgiven which did not bring much disaster.
But the ones that proved to be fatal had to be rectified. And his mistake of not taking care of this chaser right in the beginning proved to be hard for his team.
Qiao was quick to point out the team leader who was going to attack. People often only knew how to blame without taking in to consideration whether the blame was right to put or only for the sake to blame. He did not want to again be blamed by this guy right now in his terse situation.
Quipu also immediately saw the leader attacking on him and simply followed the advice of the youth. Using his quick thinking, he lowered on the ground and rolled forward into the leader's path. This resulted in him losing his balance and to fall down.
It gave a moment of freedom and ease for Qiao. He immediately seized the opportunity and leapt toward the leader. He was at level two peak and it would not be easy for him to face him head on. Only a golden opportunity like this could let Qiao win over.
And Qiao knew when to always grab hold to the opportunities that fell in his lap.
He moved fast and slashed down with his shapeless weapon, but to his surprise the guy dodged, although a bit slow. Qiao only managed to lightly wound his, leaving a long cut on his shoulder.
The shoulder got a small injury.
Quipu was quickly able to stop himself from rolling further. He was currently dusting his tattered look while the leader had no free time to do take care of his appearance. He was muddled with the dust and trying his best to not let Qiao near him and attack him fatally.
The chaser who had earlier badly tripped on his own chain weapon came running, fuming with anger.
This youth was really walking all over their nerves.
"Who do you think you are?" he came shouting and wielding the chain.
Qiao turned and while also keeping a glance at the leader, "I thought you were still licking the dust," Qiao spoke in an indifferent tone and stepped back in a hurry to avoid the chain.
"It is you who will be licking the dust and dying miserably here," the chain chaser spat out.
"I am sorry I don't have that much time to do extra miles, can you spare your bullshit for the next time," Qiao was intentionally making him angry.
Quipu was amused at his answers but he was worried too because the chain man was standing left and the team leader was standing right ready to attack in a pincer style.
"You will regret pissing us off." the chain fell towards Qiao, who on the other hand ran toward the leader. The leader never anticipated that the youth would run towards him for his punishment.
Qiao ran toward him because he was making use of a tactic that he was aware of. The chain weapon was heading for him, but if there was another target for it, it would not just move past and keep chasing him, would it? The weapon had no conscience and only followed the direction its wielder pointed at.
The chain chaser would definitely not continue to attack him when the chain could hurt his leader, would he? This would provide him a slight distraction if he moved fast and correct.
He could even again try to simply run away?
Maybe not in this situation.
He had thought to kill two birds with one stone, and it happened as he had planned. The chaser was unable to stop the chain in the middle of the attack and Qiao tricked the leader with his weapon to run into the direction of the chain. He got tangled in it, while Qiao kicked him from behind and then used his weapon with the fastest possible agility.
His whole back got mangled in blood and the leader let out a sharp squawk making Quipu shudder for a moment.
It was one of the worst hunt he ever witnessed but this leader deserve, right?
