The Yuanrang Monster Hunter
9. Three Swordsmen Versus the Beast

The abnormality of the mysterious man is visible when he opens the veil. Showing his teeth full of sharp fangs. It is impossible for a normal human to have teeth like a flesh-eating beast. Some visible body parts also began to grow black feathers that are very familiar to three warriors. The mouth bone begins to move abnormally. Shaped like a dog or a wolf. The eyes that at the beginning looked like normal humans, now turned yellow and the pupils were thinning like wild animals. Fingers that had been colored like normal humans also began to blacken, overgrown with feathers and sharp claws. During the process of change, the mysterious man roared and complained in pain. The sound of agonizing moans that were originally the same as ordinary humans, turned into a roar and grunts typical of meat-eating beasts. During the transformation, the mysterious man was still standing on the spot. The pair of shoes he was wearing also broke down slowly. A pair of enlarged legs crushed him. The clothes also began to tear as he turned increasingly stocky.

“You ... riraku .. bandit ... right?” said the mysterious man who stammered, “Take ... you guys .. wrong ..”

The warriors seemed to be drugged at the sight just now. Indeed, black feathers that appear along with the transformation make the warriors sure. If it was this wild animal, or something like that, that they met this afternoon in the forest. What made them disbelieve was how it was possible for humans to turn into wolf-like creatures. During the monster hunt under the guidance of Master Yudhistira, they had never seen a meeting between humans and monsters like this. In their minds, humans are humans and monsters are monsters. There is no such change. Even the brave and strong Yuanrang, the intelligent Mengde and Miaocai were unable to master this shock. Miaocai's left and right hands seemed to tremble at this sight.

“What the fuck is this?” said Yuanrang trembling.

Only Miaocai was immediately free from his thoughts. He immediately pulled an arrow and shot right at the neck. Miaocai's arrow did indeed manage to pierce through the neck. But somehow this creature did not collapse. Normal people should be dying. The beast is in pain. But it doesn't seem fatal.

            “Sial! I forgot to add the ice element in my arrow,” said Miaocai who picked up the arrow again, “WHY SILENCE?? YUANRANGS!! MENGDE!!”

            Miaocai's shout seemed to free Mengde and Yuanrang's mind. Two melee combatants who were originally standing in the siege formation. Now it starts to close and close. Even Mengde's brain is incapable of thinking.

            “Mengde! What should we do??” Yuanrang.

            “Ah, I ..” that's all that said on Mengde's lips.

            “SIAL!!” said Yuanrang who ran forward.

            Yuanrang jumped up and aimed for the head of the beast. Intended to split his head. However, Yuanrang's attack was within the range of a savage beast's attack. The beast swung the sword horizontally. Go to Yuanrang's left side. Yuanrang immediately positioned to fend off. Even so, the pressure of the savage beast blew Yuanrang to the door.

            “Job!” yuanrang said while holding the stomach, “It should have been a long distance away.”

            The beast wanted to attack again and this time it was the one that Mengde was after. Mengde is ready. The ferocious beast raised its sword high to split Mengde's head. Not yet had time to swing, Miaocai's arrow coated with ice elements managed to hit the hand of a savage beast. The roar of pain sounded very loud. Like the roar of a pack of wolves merged into one. The sword fell to the ground. The wild animal is unable to feel its right hand. It's like all the nerves are frozen. He tried to pull the arrow out of his hand.

            Already awakened, Yuanrang used this opportunity to take out the sword belonging to a savage beast. The beast is in pain. Without weapons alone is difficult especially with weapons. Yuanrang now uses two swords. A single sword in his grasp and a sword belonging to a savage beast remained floating in the air. Just about to attack, Yuanrang had to roll over because the beast threw the arrow that had just been released into his face.

            Mengde fired dozens of fireballs at the head of the savage beast. He had already prepared it when the beast was plucking the arrow. Again they saw a strange sight. The savage beasts brushed aside all dozens of fireballs with just a hand. As soon as the fireball ran out, Mengde put on a defensive position as the ferocious beasts started advancing.

            The beast ran towards Mengde. So close, the savage beast directly thrust the sharp left hand claws into Mengde's arm that was not covered in armor. Mengde managed to fend off. But the attack is not over. The right leg of the savage beast which was also full of claws tried to pierce Mengde's left abdomen. Mengde's left hand grasped the sword sheath and brushed off the deadly stab just now.

            The right hand of the beast was still unable to be moved. Mengde used this opportunity and attempted to cut off the right hand of the savage beast. It worked out. But they cannot hurt deeply. Mengde unsheathed the sword and along with it, the left hand of the savage beast swung at Mengde's head. De ducked. Scant. Even Mengde felt a gust of wind above her hair. The result of the flickering of the claws of a savage beast. But still Mengde was late to suspect the next attack. The legs of the beast kicked Mengde. Plunging north.

            Yuanrang immediately grabbed Mengde's hand and helped her get up. These two warriors gasped. The enemies they were facing right now were extremely uncommon.

            “How?” wild animals growling, “Why not make fun of me anymore? Already starting to regret for making fun of me?”

            Miaocai's ice arrow shot again. But this time, the savage beast had already taken into account. So it was easy for him to avoid. Miaocai did not give up and tried again. This time it was avoided as well. Eventually, Miaocai was unable to shoot again. The wild animal stands under the porch of the house. Miaocai's view was covered.

            “Not at all,” said Yuanrang, “We get new knowledge if there is a creature like you.”

            “What creature are you really?” said Mengde, “You are human or monster?”

            The right hand of the beast had already started to normalize. He shook his hands. Yuanrang's second sword shot into the head of the beast. But this time the beast shook its hands and the sword was thrown. He jumped and stabbed the door of a house. Yuanrang took out another sword belonging to a ferocious beast with metal restraint.

            “Free also yes,” said Yuanrang, “Should search for special moments.”

            “I encounter between man and wolf, children,” said wild animal.

            The beasts did not move either. Looks like he's waiting for a normal right hand serratus percent. His lips grinned with sharp teeth. He had already completely turned into a wolf. The wolf stood up.

Miaocai could not shoot because he was still blocked. Moving is free. Because despite moving places, these ferocious beasts could move again.

“You were watching us in the woods earlier?” ask Yuanrang.

“Ya,” said the beast who pointed at the warriors, “You firebenders, you metal controllers and your friends who are on top are able to control ice.”

“Why didn't you just kill us after we killed the centipede?” said Mengde.

Suddenly, a ferocious beast jumped up and aimed straight at Yuanrang and Mengde. They both jumped back. As soon as the savage beast landed, a fire appeared on the ground that instantly burned the body of the savage hewab. Wild animals roared, growled and screamed in pain. At this moment, Yuanrang controlled two swords and stabbed into the body of a savage beast. He rolled over and ran into the alleyways of the village.

Actually, the trap just now was Mengde's defense. In principle, similar to Miaocai's ice trap. The difference is only the use of fire elements. Mengde planted a fire trap as the wild animals stayed on the porch of the house to wait for the right hand to recover. Responding to the actions of wild animals that go somewhere, Mengde spread fire in all directions so that it is easy to see. Minimizing the risk of darkness.

“He exploits our weaknesses by using darkness,” said Mengde.

“Yes. Wolves have a better sense of smell than humans,” said Yuanrang, “He's this kind of darkness, he uses his nose to look at us.”

Hearing Yuanrang's explanation, Miaocai got down. He changed the remote mode to medium range. His right hand held his spear tightly. If you stand, it could be that this wild animal will jump and pounce from behind the storm. This savage beast's leap was extremely abnormal. Too far for a human jump. His feet had springs. While down, do not forget also Miaocai planted an ice trap around.

“Mengde, should I go down?” Miaocai.

“No. Just stay there,” said Mengde.

“Saling back, Mengde!” Yuanrang.

Three warriors opened their eyesight wide. Conditions like this should be thorough. The enemy hid and used the darkness to ambush the warriors. The three warriors also already knew the astonishing jumping power of the beast.

“Hey, Mengde, I have an idea. What if I become a bait?” Yuanrang.

“To be honest, Yuanrang .. I was unable to discern whether your sentence was indeed your tactic or a manifestation of your adrenaline that always wanted to fight?” said Mengde.

“This is purely my tactic,” said Yuanrang.

“Don't be stupid, cousin,” says Miaocai, “I don't want his sharp muzzle tore through your shoulder and take you away to the forest there.”

“OK, okay,” said Yuanrang who relented because he was opposed by two people at once.

From the north road, a beast appeared. The animal galloped and immediately jumped up to pounce on Yuanrang. Waiting for the right moment, Yuanrang and Mengde immediately ducked down to avoid being caught by wild animals. The beast only pounced on the air. Then landed on the ground. When landing, the animal's right hand is exposed to a fire trap. The wild animals shake their hands. At that moment, Yuanrang and Mengde rained down on the animals with their control. Miaocai had even managed to thrust three arrows into the body of a savage beast. The beast ran away again and disappeared.

“Missing again?” Yuanrang.

“Yes. We use the same tactics,” said Mengde.

“Are we not using the trap we made?”

“Not yet. The chances of success of our trap will increase if we have injured the ankle or knee. Bottom line tool she moves.”

Yuanrang sighed, “Attack just now also we even forgot his pair of legs. We just focus on hurting him.”

“Miaocai,” says Mengde, “If she shows up again. We focus on his feet, yes.”

            “Iya. We also have to finish him soon,” said Miaocai, “My land is also a quarter.”

            “What? A quarter? Also look!” said Mengde.

            Yuanrang concentrated his metal handling. The arrows scattered in the streets were raised into the air. Then all the arrows flew to Miaocai. There are very few that can be reused. The others were already broken from being broken by the beasts.

            “As much as we can,” said Yuanrang.

            “Tak what. It's also quite helpful,” Miaocai said.

            “Looks ... I don't need to pounce anymore,” heard a growling sound.

            A savage beast emerged from the alley clasping a machete. I don't know what the beast was thinking. Why is he now so bold. Miaocai's arrow shot towards the foot of the beast. But the wild animals managed to escape. Miaocai tried to shoot again. Again the wild animals managed to escape. But when the arrow hits the ground, the ice shards break and injure the legs of the beast. The attack just now left the savage beast paralyzed for a few seconds.
