Chapter 1489 Hunter (2)

"Have you found Calamity Cockatrice? It's Rank 6 Calamity," Madaki asked.

Tang Shaoyang thought about it for a moment, but this was the first time he heard about it. He had been running around in this abandoned world, opening his Enchanted Chart. He encountered many Rank 6 Calamity, but he was not sure what Madaki talked about.

"Can you tell me this Calamity Cockatrice's characteristic?"

"It's a chicken but with the body of a dragon. They are much smaller than the common dragon. The tallest is around six to seven meters. Have you seen them?"

Tang Shaoyang contemplated for a moment, and he remembered them. It was the calamity in the south, deep into the south of the city. He thought of fighting this chicken calamity, thinking it might taste good just like Tortoine. But then he found out that the chicken calamity was Rank 6 Calamity. He put them on the map and the list of hunts later.

"I think I found where their habitat is." He nodded.

"Nice find. They are known for their vigilance and high sensitivity, but there is one moment when they are at their weakest. It is during mealtime, especially when they have their favorite food. If you can find their favorite meal and use it as bait, you can hunt them easier. Kill them in one shot. If you fail in that one chance, you might not be able to catch them with how fast they are."

Their favorite meal is Rank 3 Calamity Soaring Serpent, Rank 4 Calamity Burrowing Worm, and Rank 4 Calamity Lava Worm. Find those first, then use them as bait to kill them." Madaki winked his right eye at Tang Shaoyang.

"But remember this Tang. Don't use poison because they will know it, and also don't try to dismantle the bait to take the materials. With how cautious they are, they might not take the bait."

"Thanks for the tip, Madaki," Tang Shaoyang smiled, "You can take one fifty-meter tortoine and one sixty-meter tortoine."

He left the workshop with a big smile. During the last four days, he had changed his mindset. There was no point in trying to test the limit of how strong a calamity was in each rank. He just needed to find their weakness and hunt them. The mission was to hunt them, and this was not a war. He just needed to find a specific target and hunt the target with every means, even with poison. There was no need to fight them head-on.

"Are you a merchant or what? You haven't been really hunting anything aside from Tortoine and a few Rank 2 and Rank 3 Calamity. Are you really not interested in the prize for the first place?" Ira asked after Oby left the counter, "Or do you really want a dip in my bet?"

Tang Shaoyang just smiled, not responding to her. He did not know what the bet was, and it was a lie if he was not interested. However, it felt like it would just cause trouble for him. He did not care and did not want to know about the bet. He was just enjoying his time in this trial.

Ira let out a sigh and stood up from the chair. She left without saying anything.

"It seems like she has given up, huh?" Oby returned with a food tray. The tortoine stew and a bowl of rice.

Tang Shaoyang shrugged and checked the stew. The tortoine meat looked more similar to pork than beef when it was cooked. The first thing he did was taste the broth and nodded his head, "It's good."

The tortoine meat was diced to bite size. He scoped one and tasted the meat. His experience with Calamity's meat was bad because of Manoe. He was reluctant to have a calamity dish unless Elin made it for him.

"Hmmm.... Not bad...." The dish tasted good, but he could not really tell the difference. If Oby said it was beef, he would believe it was beef stew instead of tortoine stew. That made him confused as to why these people were so worked up for tortoine meat.

"Atta boy, it seems you misunderstand something about tortoine. What's special about tortoine is not the taste, but the effect after you eat the meat. Just finish it, and you will know." Oby smiled.

Even though he was skeptical, Tang Shaoyang finished the stew. The effect was not immediate. It took like a minute for him to feel the effect. He felt heat coming from inside, making him want to do something. It felt like his body was being rejuvenated.

"Can you feel it?" The chef had a suspicious smile on his lips which Tang Shaoyang responded with a nod.

"Then why don't you spend a night at the red light district to let out some steam? You will have a great night."
