Chapter 975

(Unedited)​​



The right in front of everyone's eyes is not a hunt anymore but a war between beast and men. The large horde continues to advance mindlessly as they are cut down by the people in front of them. The casualties on the side of the humans are also piling up as the battle continues.

Luckily, Shin Jiao is here to protect most of the students especially those that belong to the Alto Magus Academy.

And so the battle continued for another day. 

While this is happening a few shadowy figures is currently dashing towards the direction of the fortress. These shadowy figures holding higher and strong realms are a force to behold. There are 2 warriors at the 50 plus level and one primary stage Grand Magus. The rest of them are Arch Mages and level 45 and above fighters.

This magnificent force belongs to a private mercenary group that usually does not interfere with the business of the kingdom. However, when they are mobilized one would need to spend an exorbitant amount of money.

And since they decided to make their move one could tell that the one who hired them is very serious and is willing to pay just to eliminate someone.

"Master Kwan, the target this time is the 5th prince. And his protector is someone from the Mystique Shop. Do you think we would get into trouble if we make a move on one of them?" an assassin asked while sitting atop a Windfall.

"As long as we are not discovered then we would not face any danger. However, once we are discovered, the upper echelon would not let us down. A mere shop would not be able to handle our strength." Master Kwan said with a sneer.

Although they have been in seclusion all the time and would seldom go out. They are not oblivious to the news in the outside world.

In fact, they are a well-informed group and knew what is really happening in the kingdom.

However, none of them believe that a mere Mystique Shop would be able to fight against their mercenary group, the Dao Fang Heavenly mercenaries.

But they did not care as all they care about is the money that they could get.

As the group reaches the stronghold, they left their Windfalls and directly proceed on foot to the battlefield.

Even from the stronghold, one could hear the loud explosion coming from the forest. And once in a while, the patrol guards would encounter those beasts that escaped the hunt.

Upon nearing the place, the group immediately stopped.

"I will be scouting ahead and if possible eliminate the target immediately. The rest of you should standby…" Master Kwan said commanded.

"Master Kwan, can I accompany you?" one of the mercenaries asked.

"Hmm… Alright… You and… you. Come with me." Master Kwan called another guy to accompany him.

The three of them immediately disappear through the forest while the rest stayed.

"Master Gao and Master Ki, should we set up a trap in here?" asked one of the mercenaries who looks a bit bored.

"Yes, you guys set up a trap just in case. The rest would wait in ambush…" Master Gao commanded.

Master Gao and Master Ki are warriors of a high level, so they are in command of the group without Master Kwan. With their command, the rest of the mercenaries began to set up arrays and formations to trap those who would retreat.

They do not care what would happen in this hunt, all they care about is the accomplishment of their duty and mission.

After setting up one-kilometer wide differing traps from simple to one using an array formation, the group took their ambush positions.

Meanwhile, Master Kwan and the two with him have already reached the battleground. What they saw thoroughly dumbfounded the three.

In front of them is barren land with many destroyed trees and shattered rocks everywhere. In addition to this, they were shocked to discover that there are no monster corpses everywhere.

"This… this is not a hunt but a war…" one of the mercenaries beside Master Kwan muttered while looking at the devastated area in front of them.

As the three walks through the clearing, a deep voice suddenly stopped them. Two soldiers walk out of an inconspicuous mound while pointing their rifle staves at the three in a defensive manner.

"Halt! No one passes this area… the Hunt is currently proceeding!" one of the soldiers shouted.

When the three saw this, they look at each other and nodded their heads. They did not say anything and just suddenly sent a flying blade at the two soldiers.

A thin barrier suddenly blocked the blades and deflected them to the ground.

"Damn it! Assassins! There are assassins here!" shouted the two soldiers.

Along with their words, they fire off the rifle staves in their hands and counter-attacked the three people in front of them.

Boom! Boom!

A loud explosion happened but the two soldiers have a look of amazement in their eyes as the old man among the three people just raised his hand to block the rifle staff bullets they fired.

But before the two could react, the two people beside the old man rushes forward and attacked the two soldiers.

Although they were protected by the barrier in their bodies, they were stills sent flying by the strength of the mercenaries.

"Let's proceed!" shouted Master Kwan as he dashed forward.

But they were not able to take another step when they discovered a group of people ahead of them. This group of people is in an area where it seems that the battle has not reached. From the looks of it, they are foraging some herbs.

This is some of the group of the Alto Magus academy student in which, with the help of Shin Jiao, decided to gather all the carcasses for storage in the Mystique Shop mysterious space warehouse. They separate the carcasses and the other materials that are gathered according to school, mercenary, or adventurer group.

Yemei Yin offered this solution to Shin Jiao after they faced the problem of transporting the carcasses and herbs gathered.

With this solution, everyone agreed even the soldiers.

So when the three saw this, they all showed a slight shock on their faces.

"That is a space storehouse… Does this mean that the Mystique Shop is connected with this hunt? This is getting to be more troublesome than we thought…" a mercenary muttered while watching the scene from afar.

"We have to hurry and find the 5th prince. I can't believe that our presence was discovered already." Master Kwan said with agitation in his eyes.

When the three were about to move, they felt strong mana energies from behind them. They knew that those who are chasing after them have already caught up.

"Let's withdraw for now…" Master Kwan said with a frown.

The three ran towards another way to avoid those who are chasing after them.

"Are they assassins?" he thought as the three are wearing dark robes.

"Hmm… I don't want more trouble before we finish up in here. I guess taking action at this time is also a good way to alleviate my boredom…" Shin Jiao muttered as he suddenly jumps down the tree.

"Yemei… you make sure nothing bad happens. I'm going to eliminate some pests." Shin Jiao said to his com device.

'Yes, master…' she replied at the other end.

It did not take long before Shin Jiao was able to catch up with the three and the group of soldiers chasing after them.

Suddenly he drops down in front of the soldiers.

"Stop chasing!" he said as the confused soldiers did not know why they were prevented to apprehend those intruders.

"There is an Array Formation Trap ahead…" Shin Jiao said.

Realizing that they were just saved, gratitude could be seen in their eyes while looking at the forest in front of them. Though they could not see anything, they did not refute the guy who has been helping them in fighting the beasts in the forest.

"You guys go back and continue guarding the rear… I will take care of this." Shin Jiao said with a smile.
