Chapter 37: Dead Leaf Messenger
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xu Hang accessed the system’s interface. It was almost eleven o’clock.
He felt that he had been a little rash.
After all, these werewolves had almost killed him.
However, he was lucky to gain more information about Beast Tide and the system’s messenger. At his current status, he would only be courting death if he decided to pursue the messenger.
Nonetheless, Xu Hang had already made up his mind to investigate this world. He would not just give up.
Xu Hang ordered a farmer who was at the castle to head over to his location. It was in preparation for the next day. Then, he fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, the king of the wolves woke them up at five o’clock.
“Get up, young man!” said the king of the wolves as he stepped on Xu Hang’s chest.
“Cough, cough, cough! I’m up! You’re killing me!”
Xu Hang complained.
Hearing Xu Hang’s cries, the farmers immediately rushed over and surrounded the wolf with their weapons.
“No, no, no. I’m just trying to wake your master. I have no ill will,”
The king of the wolves hurriedly explained.
It had to be careful around these three farmers.
Xu Hang added, “It’s fine. Drop your weapons.”
The farmers kept their weapons but their eyes were glued to the wolf.
“Alright. We have to hurry and set off. Here’s some food. Eat them.”
The king of the wolves howled and a pack of demon wolves entered the cave.
Each of them spat out a fruit of unknown origin in addition to two rabbits.
The king of the wolves had a proud expression on its’ face.
Everything was covered in the wolves’ saliva. The blood of the rabbits even got onto the fruits.
Xu Hang almost vomited from the smell.
However, the king of the wolves had good intentions. He could not be disrespectful.
So, Xu Hang resisted his urge to vomit and made up an excuse to not eat.
The king of the wolves went and gave a speech before they set off.
In the meantime, Xu Hang and his group were repairing the magic four-wheeled car.
The farmer from the castle had also arrived.
His plan was to let the farmer protect the little pup until their return.
They were going to look for the system’s messenger. Xu Hang had no idea how long it would take or when he would return.
After the king of the wolves finished his speech, Xu Hang presented the farmer to it and explained his plan.
The king of the wolves was grateful and immediately agreed.
After bidding farewell to the little pup, they set off.
Xu Hang got into the car and drove towards the depths of the northern mountain range. The king of the wolves was following from behind.
As they got closer, the mountain view became clearer.
Some mountain peaks were covered in thick snow.
The temperature had also dropped.
It was not a problem for the king of the wolves, but Xu Hang could barely stand it.
He ordered Hill to take over the wheel while he looked for a long robe stored behind the car. After finding the robe, he put it on.
After driving for about three hours, they finally arrived at their destination.
The area was surrounded by small and short mountains.
At the same time, the sun had risen. It had gotten much warmer.
Xu Hang took off his long robe and got out of the car. He took a look around.
There truly were only small-sized mountains.
The place was filled with snow. It would most certainly be rich in water resources.
If Xu Hang was the system’s messenger, he would choose to live in such a convenient place as well.
According to the king of the wolves, the strength and mobility of this message should be quite high.
It would be easier to deal with the messenger in such a wide area because there was a lot of space to maneuver around. Xu Hang also took advantage of the fact that they outnumbered the messenger.
Moreover, he could hide behind the small mountain slopes and then use the magic cannon to launch a sneak attack.
If he missed his shot, he could also quickly get into the magic four-wheeled car and escape.
Basically, Xu Hang had the advantage if they were to battle.
“We have arrived. It’s almost time for the assembly. You guys should find somewhere to hide so the other magical beasts will not discover you,” said the king of the wolves.
Xu Hang nodded in agreement.
Hill covered the car with branches to camouflage it.
The king of the wolves ran ahead.
In order to be safe, Xu Hang continued to walk on foot.
He saw a giant python that was slithering rapidly towards the direction of the gathering.
“Another tier 3 magical beast. This assembly is no joke!”
As they continued to walk, a faint noise could be heard from ahead.
“Let’s take a look at the situation.”
They carefully snuck around to get a better look.
The sun had yet to fully rise. There was a faint mist covering the place. It almost felt like they were in some kind of fairyland.
Suddenly, a loud and clear voice could be heard.
“The dead leaf messenger has arrived!”
Xu Hang’s heart was pounding!
