Chapter 785 Make The Hunter The Prey
Quack quack quack , Neatwits duck started to rage on the huge dino and for a moment everyone except Neatwit was thrown into confusion looking at this scene.
Even the dino who had lived for countless decades could not beleive his eyes as to why was his food scolding him?
RAWRRRR!
The dinasaur roared at the angry chicken and immediately the mama ducks courage all came flat out of her body as she quickly pooped out 3 eggs in panic.
What followed was the dinasaur chasing mama duck while drooling while the mama duck running away fluttering her wings in dire attempts to save herself while the smaller elder ducks flew straight into the dinos mouth to save their mama dino.
Rudra saw the whole scene from distance and started to count the number of ducks that the dino was swallowing.
" 1...2....4...
...27...30 , it's done OOO it's done Rest in peace big lizard " Rudra knew that the lizard was going to face probably one of the most terrifying deaths however he did not want to be too close to the beast while witnessing it , lest he be drawn into the aftermath.
Usually when one killed 1-3 ducks they got some pretty pathetic natural disaster but this dinasaur had swallowed 30 , now when the stomach acid would start to actually kill these ducks one by one the disaster would probably grow bigger and bigger until Rudra had no idea what would happen at 30 deaths.
Rudra's guess was spot on , as within seconds a huge thundercloud that Rudra had only seen during his natural tribulation formed above the hellscape as one after another tribulation power thunderbolts started to pelt the dinasaurs skin.RAWRRR
The dinasaur did not understand as to why the lightning bolts kept hitting it nomatter what it did and after initially trying to dodge and survive , after the 12th hit it just got paralyzed and unable to move.
After the 30th strike , not even it's ashes were left to remember the collosal beast as its body along with his bones were reduced to nothingness by the thunder.
When Neatwit rode his duck back to the rest of the troops he got a loud clapping reception of
QUACK ( CLAP ) QUACK ( CLAP ) QUACK (CLAP )
chant , as he danced alongside mama duck on the beat.
Rudra did not understand if the chant was a compliment or a demeaning thing to say but since Neatwit seemed to be dancing to it he let it slide.
The group continued on its journey as Rudra started to think about the more serious things that he needed to consider regarding today's circumstanceswhich was who was the mastermind behind this assassination attempt and what should he expect next.
After a few moments of self contemplation , Rudra decided to confer with the elders around him as he said " What do you think we should do guys? I genuinely beleive that the assassination target is not the entire division but only me this time.
What should the approach be? What do you guys think? "
Karna thought for a while before replying " I think we play the man , we stay together , stay alert and try and foil the assassination attempt "cO,m Medivh said "I agree , i think guildmaster should blend in with the crowd and suppress his aura , that way finding him would be really hard and we ca- "
Before Medivh finished he was interrupted by Jhonny " Heh , you silly mage boy , that's not how assassins work.
No matter how much Rudra hides he cannot hide , the organisation behind this attack is not an amateur, however they are not as good as Jhonny English either , trust the number one assassin in the world and go venture out the sun temple alone.
Karna Boy will study the map and guide us with a detour , go there be alert and kill the assassin by the time we come.
The only way to stop an assassin is to become the hunter from the prey , do the unexpected, be at the unexpected at the unexpected time and all his careful calculations will come crashing down converting it into a man to man fight , and while the shakuni boy is still a boy infront of Jhonny , he is a man alright , demon cu*ts can't hurt a hair on him ".
Everyone gave Jhonny a blank look before Neatwit asked " You mean the beast kings temple? "
Jhonny raised his hand in annoyance and smacked Neatwit on the forehead as he said " sun temple , beast temple , temple temple , do you think this old man cares boy? ".
Neatwit shut his mouth and rubbed his head as he looked at karna in protest who offered no help at all.
After thinking for a while Rudra felt that Jhonny's words made sense , but still no sense at all , as when he looked at things from his perspective, him venturing into a fight alone had lesser odds of him winning than him going in with an backup , no matter the situation , however since his elder sir Jhonny said he had to do it like that , he trusted the old man with his life and decided to follow the advice.
Hence Rudra broke off from the rest off the group and marched on ahead towards the beast kings temple through the pre-decided path , however via air to avoid all traps.
Having noone to slow him down it only took him 15 minutes to arrive at the temple via air as the first thing he did upon arrival was to complete withdraw his aura and use cloud feet to completely negat all his footstep voices as well.
Entering stealth mode Rudra did not even dare to breath heavy as he used his vision to scan for trouble and lifeforms , however instead of trouble what he found within the temple was unbelievable as his eyes widened in shock and he almost lost control over his breathing.
The beast kings temple was not simple as it seemed from the outside as within it were buried some of the most ancient secrets of the pre -civilisation beast era.
Secrets thought to be lost in the sands of time ... secrets that could completely change the course of the war.
