I Am A Legendary BOSS-Chapter 10 - During the Hunt

Chapter 10: During the Hunt

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Blackleaf Forest mountains, covered with tall clouds slowly cooled down from its east to west, apart from that Eastern ocean snow mountain…

The tree veins had also grown denser and denser as time passed. In this endless forest ocean, various races and animals resided. Amongst them was the most mysterious and well-off Dark Night City, the place the Blackleaf Elfin Royalty and their people lived.

Of course, there were also many giant dragons in such a large forest.

The mountain separating the Border Town from the ocean was called the Separating Mountain by William because this mountain that wasn’t too tall, separating him and the ocean. That was why he gave this mountain such a simple name…

He knew what would be near an ocean, and knew even more that there were countless resources and ‘treasures’ in the ocean. Although there would be small mermen near the beaches, after wiping them out, the ocean would bring him enough benefits.

At least, he would be able to bring more to his people’s tables.

There were only a few nations near the ocean on the East of the continent.

Basically, the southern side had been blocked by the Blackleaf mountains, making it extremely hard to obtain the ocean’s resources, so only some Eastern nations were able to approach the ocean.

However, the majority of the nations didn’t want to depend on the ocean or get food from the ocean. According to their thoughts, the land was the place they should contend for. Usually, they used the ocean near them to transport resources.

It was the same even in the eyes of many nobilities.

Apart from the fish, everything else in the ocean seemed too scary. How could they eat them?

The normal fishermen didn’t care about these. They were even gloating silently that it was best if these *ssholes didn’t eat them.

Bright sunlight shone into the forest, forming rays of warm sunlight. They brightened the leaves, making them look extremely enticing like golden knots.

The Elves had all returned, with no incident befalling them. This wasn’t in the depths of the forest, so it was very hard to bump into those strong magical beasts. It was even coincidental for them to find a giant wild bear now.

William didn’t lead his people to surround and attack the giant bear immediately.

Instead, he let them rest for five hours first.

After they had eaten, he finally led the group towards the iron mine.

There, they met up with the three Elfin rangers that had been guarding the place, William found out that the giant bear hadn’t come out to hunt. Instead, it was sleeping inside. He caressed his chin, falling into deep thought.

Lautner found the crazily big footsteps, thinking for a few seconds before he said, “I cannot conclude if it is a middle-leveled magical beast or a higher-leveled one. However, once we’re ready, we can definitely win, just that there will definitely be some fatalities.”

“It’s best if we prepare everything properly. I don’t want our warriors to die!” William shook his head. The other Elfin warriors all glanced at him, remaining silent.

“Spring has just started, right?” He asked suddenly.

“That’s right. What’s wrong?” Lautner replied.

William Blackleaf narrowed his eyes. “Then, is there a possibility that the giant wild bear is about to give birth? From my knowledge, bears get pregnant in Autumn and gave birth at the start of Spring!” (This was knowledge in Gods)

“Hm, if that’s the case, this will be a lot easier!” Lautner didn’t even consider if killing a pregnant female bear would be violent. The other Elves, with bright eyes, were thinking the same.

In this world, the strong ate the weak. Back in the early days, the Elves who conquered the entire continent had understood this principle. They could be kind, very kind even, but that was on the pretense that their race would be safe.

And because of their excessive tolerance, it resulted in the other races growing stronger and even led to the Elves completely losing their power. They still remembered all of this very clearly.

If this giant wild bear was really pregnant, after it recovered, the Border town would be placed in a very dangerous situation.

Not to mention, this wasn’t a normal bear. This was a magical beast!

Any magical beast was extremely violent and couldn’t coexist with others. Apart from a very few exceptions, magical beasts would swallow every one that belonged to a different race.

“Collect a large amount of fainting grass to extract its poison or burn it in the cave. Dig a trench that is at least ten meters deep and five meters wide. Weave nets that can cover a five-meter tall giant bear, at least three of them. Once we have prepared everything, let’s aim to kill it off without any casualties!” Lautner gave an order and the other Elves moved to complete their tasks in an orderly manner.

The digging of trenches wasn’t only done by the Elfin hunters. A hundred and fifty Elfin warriors took the job because the Elfin hunters needed to weave the giant nets!

As for the rangers, they went around to look for the fainting grass, as well as other drugs that weren’t too poisonous. After all, the flesh of magical beasts tasted quite good.

If an NPC wanted to grow, apart from fighting, they could eat all sorts of food and medicine with the magical power to make them stronger and level up.

Players would receive quite a lot of experience as if they ate them too. However, it was a pity that they could only eat each item a limited number of times.

William still remembered a rich player in his previous life who got a foodie nickname from eating. That player even rose to level 80 from just eating. He never fell behind any top players until the middle part of the game.

However, in order to get the nickname, it seemed as though eating at least a thousand types of magical beast meat and at least five types of dragon meat were required. It was not easier than becoming a Legendary player. In fact, it was even crazier.

After all, it was dragon meat!

It was really a piece of meat that was hard to buy. If an NPC killed a dragon and there wasn’t a certain level of friendship, it would be very hard for players to buy dragon meat or blood from them.

The busy digging mission continued and there was no sign of that giant wild bear.

William stared at the cave. No one had entered, so they didn’t know how deep it was.

However, what Lautner could confirm was that the giant wild beast was inside. He could feel that sort of energy. Using its hearing, the bear should be able to work out what was happening outside of the cave, but it still wasn’t coming out. That meant that its problem was very huge and very troublesome!

William Blackleaf couldn’t help but lick his lips. If the bear was really pregnant, he could wait a little while and even try to tame the giant wild bear then. It would help his growth a lot.

Forget riding a dragon, riding a middle-leveled giant wild bear onto the arena would attract attention as well…

Although Knights had all sorts of rides, the majority were horses of a stronger breed. If they wanted to form a magical beast ride group, many nations wouldn’t be able to support such a price. That was why only very few nobilities were able to get a magical beast ride.

As for the players?

There wasn’t even a need to think about it at the start of the game. Apart from hunters and summoners, other players could only own very normal horses. If they were able to get a ride that was slightly stronger, it was like driving a Porsche as they laughed like a fool…

Time passed slowly.

The cave entrance was stacked with fainting grass, while everyone’s arrows were laced with poison. Three gigantic trenches had been dug near the entrance.

Elves carrying bows and arrows all climbed up the trees, waiting for the next command.

The witch bladers waited too, ready to give their strongest blow.

The Battle Energy cut!

This was the strongest long-range skill a level 10 witch blader had. It had a range of up to 4 meters!

At that moment, William was still hesitating!

A loud growl sounded from within the cave, laced with an indeterminable emotion.

He immediately shouted, “Light the fainting grass and fan the smoke into the cave. Fall back immediately if you hear anything from within!”

Just as several Elves were about to light and throw the fainting grass inside the cave, crazy tremors were felt!

“Quick, fall back!” The moment Lautner finished speaking, the five Elves who were supposed to light the grass had already left. They were the nearest and had heard it. Wouldn’t they be fools if they stayed?

Loyalty didn’t mean that they would send themselves to death without a meaning…

A giant animal appeared running out of the cave. It got up, standing tall in its black and bright hide. Its eyes were burning brightly, stopping people from looking at it. Its angry aura flooded the area!

Even those fearless Elfin warriors felt a little scared now.

Its ink-black eyes glanced around before it smacked its giant paw at the fire pile!

William narrowed his eyes. “Fire!”
