Chapter 344: Wyernthrope - Part 2

"Wyernthrope?" It was Dominic's first time hearing such a name. He looked at Heero, asking for more explanation about the creatures above.

"Do you know the dungeon?" Heero asked without looking at Dominic.

"Yes…" Dominic nodded. He had heard a lot about dungeons but he never entered one so far. So he did not know much about the dungeon.

"Those creatures come from dungeons. We call them beastmen and for this species, they are Wyernthrope, a half-wyvern, and a half-human beastman!" Heero explained patiently to the guy.

After that, Heero muttered, "But why only so few of them? Luca said they deployed seventy percent of their force…"

He had gathered all intel, the specter was targeting him. They wanted to kill him, the unknown threat for them, but…

'Are they hoping to kill me with a minimal force?'

Meanwhile, a hundred Wyernthropes were hovering in the sky. They did not immediately attack their target but observed Heero and his group calmly.

Among the hundred Wyernthrope, there were two that looked different from the others. While the common Wyernthrope had gray scales, these two had particularly bright red scales.

The two were the leader of this pack Wyernthrope.

"Why did that old man tell us to observe him first? There's nothing special about him at all!" The red-scaled Wyernthrope spoke to his companion.

"Oh, it's because that man killed their pet easily. I heard the Abyss Raven was killed in one attack!" The other red-scales Wyernthrope replied while looking at Heero closely.

"Just because of that? We can do that too!"

"Yes, we can but we can't achieve what that man achieved. An Emperor Level Abyss Raven included its minions, thousands of them! He killed them in one attack!"

"Hmmm, if that was so then we should be careful…" The two red-scaled Wyernthropes talked as they watched Heero and his group slaughtered the puppets.

Butcher Wang noticed the uninvited guests and he regrouped with Heero.

"What's that? Is that thing's meat edible?"

Dominic was speechless by Butcher Wang's question. At this time, the man was still asking if the meat was edible or not. What made it worse, Heero played along with the brawny man.

"Why don't you try to hunt one and taste it? Maybe you will find a treasure and get rich," Heero smiled.

"Should we start now?" Kang Seo-Yeon chimed with a question.

'Start? Starting what?' Dominic felt he was out of the group. What they were talking about just did not synchronize with his mind.

Bai Xin Yue leaped back onto the arena along with the two teenagers. At the same time, she created an ice wall to surround the arena.

"What's the situation, Uncle Wang? Have all people been evacuated from the city?"

"The heroes from the guilds refused to listen. And the people affiliated with the top guilds also refused to listen. But there are only a few left in the core and the inner region!" Butcher Wang reported the whole situation.

"We have tried but they just won't listen, let's do it! Start the real hunt!" Heero motioned to Butcher Wang.

Heero then turned toward Kang Seo-Yeon, "Don't hold back, we are going all out now!"

"You two, go back and take a rest for a while! Don't force yourself!"

Kang Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun looked not good. They lacked out of breath and their face paled. They did not suffer injuries but this was their first time they killed people. Moreover, they did not kill just one or two but many of them.

"Alright!" Kang Dong-Woo and Xu Lingxun nodded.

Meanwhile, Kang Seo-Yeon was pulling her bowstring. She aimed her flame arrow at the two red-scaled Wyernthropes.

"Look at the girl! She aims at us, should we fight them now?"

"Should we? But the plan is waiting for the other to arrive and surround them! That old man will scold us if we act now!"

The two red-scaled Wyernthropes kept talking by themselves, not caring about the flame arrow that aimed at them.

Yes, they planned to kill Heero at this moment. But the plan was to wait until everyone gathered and ganged up on Heero. They had to wait here until their friends came. However, Heero and his group were not going to wait.

Shoosh!

Kang Seo-Yeon released the bowstring and the flame arrow shot toward the red-scaled Wyernthrope on the right.

"Good arrow but it's still nothing for us!"

The red-scaled Wyernthrope put his palm forward.

Boom!

With his scaled palm, he blocked the flame arrow well. However, to the red-scaled Wyernthrope's surprise, the arrow split into twenty flame arrows after the arrow exploded in his hand.

The twenty flame arrows then shot toward the twenty Wyernthrope behind the red-scaled Wyernthrope.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions rang behind the red-scaled Wyernthrope.

Ten out of ten Wyernthropes managed to react in time as they blocked the flame arrow. However, the remaining ten Wyernthropes failed to react and had a flame arrow pierced their chests before the arrow exploded.

Ten bodies fell from the sky. Just like that, ten out of a hundred Wyernthropes were killed.

Kang Seo-Yeon smirked as she pulled her now once again. The same flame arrow was aimed at the same target.

"Woman! Do you think you can pull the same trick twice!" The red-scaled Wyernthrope was furious as he was getting tricked by Kang Seo-Yeon. He underestimated the woman's flame arrow but now he was prepared.

Shoosh!

The second flame arrow was much faster than the first. The first flame arrow took five seconds to reach the target while the second flame arrow only took a second to reach the red-scaled Wyernthrope.

The flame arrow's speed caught it off guard. But the red-scaled Wyernthrope managed to cast a translucent barrier made of its Ki.

Crack!

The flame arrow however pierced through the barrier and hit the red-scaled Wyernthrope's chest.

Boom!

The arrow exploded and a figure flew out of the explosion. The red-scaled Wyernthrope was thrown away by the impact. It was pushed back twenty meters to the back.

"Tsk, my arrow failed to kill it," Kang Seo-Yeon clicked her tongue as she regretted that her arrow did not kill the red-scaled Wyernthrope.

"Woman! You have successfully angered me! I WILL KILL YOU!" The red-scaled Wyernthrope was angered as he was hit by the flame arrow.

It screamed in Dramonia Language as it pointed its claw toward Kang Seo-Yeon.

There was a big chunk of charred mark on the red-scaled Wyernthrope's chest. It was caused by the flame arrow shot by Kang Seo-Yeon.

After that, it closed its wing and covered its body with the wing. Then the red-scaled Wyernthrope's body spun in the air before it shot toward Kang Seo-Yeon.

Midway, a bright flame lit up from the gap of its scales before finally completely covered its body. The red-scaled Wyernthrope was just like a drill in flame.

"You should stay in their air instead of coming down!" Bai Xin Yue appeared two meters above Kang Seo-Yeon with an ice barrier in her hand.

Bang!

The ice barrier blocked the red-scaled Wyernthrope. A burst of the bright flame spread out. The ice barrier completely blocked the red-scaled Wyernthrope's attack.

In the next second, Butcher Wang appeared in the next of the red-scaled Wyernthrope. He punched the red-scaled Wyernthrope and delivered his gauntlet toward the body.

Boom!

The red-scaled Wyernthrope's body crashed into the ice wall then to the spectator's seat.

"Arghhh!"

However, its sturdy body protected him well from the punch. The red-scaled Wyernthrope immediately came out and charged again toward Kang Seo-Yeon.

However, what greeted him was three consecutive flame arrows.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The red-scaled Wyernthrope was sent back to his original place where he crashed down. It did stop there as Bai Xin Yue rushed closer to the cornered red-scaled Wyernthrope.

She stopped right five meters away and placed her hand on the ground. In the next moment, dozens of ice spears shot out from the place where the red-scaled Wyernthrope crashed.

"ARGHHHHH!!!" A pained scream came out of the pit. As scream that made Dominic's nape hair stood up

Swoosh!

The attack did not stop there. Dominic saw the brawny man called Uncle Wang jump into the air. He saw Uncle Wang's right gauntlet was covered by a translucent blue gauntlet made of Blue Ki. The size of the blue gauntlet was thrice of his body.

Like that, he witnessed Uncle Wang deliver the big blue gauntlet to the pit where the falling red-scaled Wyernthrope was.

Boom!

A booming noise filled the whole Sun Dome. This time, no more screams were coming from the crashed spot. Dominic however could not see what actually happened to the red-scaled Wyernthrope as dust blocked his sight.

"Urghhh!!"

In the next few seconds, Dominic heard a roar. However, the roar was coming from Uncle Wang's mouth, not the red-scaled Wyernthrope.

Butcher Wang came out of the dust with the red-scaled Wyernthrope's body in his hand. He tore the red-scaled Wyernthrope's head from the body. Blood spurted out from the neck, showering Butcher Wang's body in Wyernthrope's blood.

Another red-scaled Wyernthrope had his pupils widened as he witnessed his brother was torn up by his eyes. He could not believe his brother would lose his life just like this.

"You should not shift your sight away from your enemy!" Heero's voice was heard next to him.

The red-scaled Wyernthrope turned around and he saw Heero slashed his sword down toward his neck. He could not react in time as his vision fell. The red-scaled Wyernthrope even saw his headless body fell before darkness invaded him.

Meanwhile, in the outer region

Roman and his companion still could not find a single life even until now. He stopped advancing as he received a vital message.

"What is it?" The middle-aged man asked Roman.

"It's a trap! Aron says this is a trap!" Roman replied with a confused look. He could not understand the message.

Roman was about to call back but then, he heard a familiar voice enter his ears.

"Found you! B*stard!"

Roman turned toward the voice and found a familiar face approached him. Ryan White, the guy he thought he had killed with Abyss Parasite was still alive. Roman's eyes widened in surprise.
