Chapter 008 is coming 2
One could only watch as Angley pulled out a small hunting knife from his lower back, skewering the small snake until it was a bloody mess, before simply extracting the red single eye and tossing the entire eyeball into his mouth, swallowing it down with a gulp
The footsteps of a figure tread upon the thick grass, only to be obscured by the delicate calls of birds and the chirping of insects, rendering it nearly impossible to discern any sound.
So far, he has consumed no fewer than hundreds of red single-eyed creatures, and now eating the eyeballs of the single-eyed snakes has little effect on him. It seems he has developed a resistance. However, being able to enhance his agility to this extent has already made him quite satisfied. Coupled with more than half a month of training, his physical condition has also improved significantly
At the moment when the two individuals were experiencing a complete mental confusion
At noon in the forest, the fragmented sunlight is sliced into pieces.
Odysseus and Ward sat on either side of him, both with grave expressions
You all go ahead and put things in order, and I will take care of the rest. Perhaps we might encounter a black-spotted deer today
Even without the enhancement of seeds, he is already in excellent physical condition. However, it is said that those who possess seeds can exhibit extremely strong explosive power, instantly increasing their combat effectiveness several times. In this regard, Angley cannot compare.
With the departure of the two individuals, Angley finally recited the command in his heart
Angley slightly closed his eyes, a hint of a smile appearing on his face
One hundred meters away from Angre, in the woods.
***
The three individuals began to continuously search for prey in the woods. Angrel also demonstrated an accuracy rate of only four out of ten arrows hitting the target, which gradually made the two guards accustomed to his performance.
The two individuals retraced their steps back along the original path
"More than ten heavy cavalry? Is that impressive? Only in such remote countryside would they consider it strong." Dis regarded them with complete disdain. Just recently, he had killed twenty heavy cavalry, including a knight-level powerhouse, in a direct confrontation.
"No effect?" Angre raised his eyebrows in concern
He is quite satisfied with today's gains. If it were not for the need to conceal his abnormalities, he could have hit the target every time. The mere distance of several dozen meters poses no difficulty for him, given his chip assistance.
Okay
In the following half month, Angrel would go hunting in the nearby woods every day, and his exceptional archery skills had reached the ears of those in the castle. Everyone was no longer surprised by the game he brought back from his daily hunts
However ... ...
Let’s leave it at that for today. Let’s go back and rest first," Angley said after resting for a while, standing up.
"Yes, everyone who has tried it has only experienced diarrhea and nothing else," the guard replied
However, half an hour later, both guards were holding a fully stuffed gray cloth bag. Inside were all the squirrel gray rabbits and the one-eyed snakes caught by Angre. Both of them were injured and could hardly carry any more.
As the boy swallowed this snake's eye, a faint flush of red suddenly swept across his originally fair complexion
Once again, a one-eyed snake has been impaled on a branch over twenty meters away
It is the one-eyed snake, the red one-eyed snake! Angler had inquired in advance about the information regarding the red one-eyed snake
The young master's archery skills are truly remarkable!" a guard couldn't help but exclaim, "We all have to get closer to distinguish between the one-eyed snake and the tree trunk, yet you can see it from such a distance. Impressive!
A普通少年 dressed in a light green hunting outfit emerged from the bushes, holding a black short bow. Behind him followed two young warriors, both adult men clad in gray-brown leather armor
Angler quickly jogged over, and the two guards, initially taken aback by the fact that they could actually strike the prey, hesitated for a moment before following suit
Angre smiled slightly and, with a swift motion, drew the iron sword from his waist. With a swift slash, he cut through the air, creating a silent arc. A branch, about the thickness of a wrist, suddenly snapped in front of him and fell down.
"The assassin of the Dark Chapter, who has such great influence? How could they possibly recruit a powerhouse of this caliber?" Howard said in a hushed voice. "The Dark Chapter spans several countries, and the terrifying strength of its members is beyond my imagination"
Although there are chips for correction and target acquisition, the stability of the body still requires continuous practice to achieve. It is important to note that on Earth, when competing in archery, the minimum distance is over 1 kilometer, and everyone uses mechanical compound bows, which have a very long range. This competition ultimately comes down to who has the stronger stability, as everyone has chip assistance.
Continue, then," Angel said softly
"I won again," a man said with a smile
As a member of the Shadow Chapter, Dis is exceptionally careful in gathering all information related to his targets during each mission. Although he possesses formidable knight-level strength, he never allows himself to be complacent, which is a key reason for his infrequent failures
Angrel, who had swallowed the snake's eye, frowned slightly, revealing a peculiar expression on his face
Hello!
Only the sound of a thud was heard again
"Alright." Angre nodded. He was also feeling somewhat fatigued, so he simply leaned against a tree trunk and sat down. He consumed dozens of eyeballs from the one-eyed snake in succession, and he could feel a slight warmth spreading through his body, as if he were becoming increasingly light and agile.
This speed is already somewhat faster than when it was initially demonstrated in Arad
This is the place? A figure paused, crouching in front of a cluster of bushes
"I will have Hank take the items back; I will stay here to protect you," one person said
Continue. He said lightly, referring to the book. Casually, he tossed the dead snake in his hand to a guard, who promptly took out a prepared burlap sack to pack it away
Only then did the two notice that, in the distance, there was another one-eyed snake nailed to the large tree.
He walked up to the tree trunk, swiftly pulled out the white feathered arrow, and returned it to the quiver. This arrow struck the one-eyed snake in the head, creating a bloody hole, clearly indicating that he had made a mistake
A wave of heat suddenly surged from within his body, flowing towards his limbs. An unusually light sensation rose to his heart
I am no longer a weakling. Angrel, satisfied, sheathed the iron sword with a reverse motion.
The assassination document has already been sent to me in advance," the baron said in a low voice. "This is their usual practice; they will inform the victim in advance of when they will die. However, what puzzles me is that hiring the Dark Chapter costs at least several thousand gold coins. My annual income in the Liao territory is only a few hundred gold coins, yet someone is willing to spend several thousand gold coins to buy my life...
A figure entirely shrouded in gray is quietly approaching the direction of the castle
Young Master Angre displayed a faint smile on his face as he quickly walked towards a large tree not far away
***
Upon receiving the dead snake, the two guards exchanged glances.
The venom of the solemn one-eyed snake is highly potent; however, apart from its venom glands and fangs, the rest of its body is non-venomous. Therefore, the two individuals did not dare to obstruct Angliel, as this was something he had captured himself
The baron sat in his seat with a sullen expression, saying nothing
Inside the castle, the conference hall
A hurried sound of footsteps emerged from the grass.
Angrel drew his iron sword, aimed it at the head of the small snake, and struck it fiercely with the hilt. The one-eyed snake immediately fell unconscious and ceased to struggle
"You all go back and put your things away before coming back," Angley instructed. "I will rest here for a moment." He casually prepared to throw the dead snake to the guard and the books, but for some reason, he hesitated. He gently twisted the hunting knife in the snake's mouth, and a white venom gland was immediately extracted. He took the venom gland and tucked it into his waist pouch before finally tossing the dead snake to the guard.
I have heard that the eye of the one-eyed snake is beneficial for the eyes; I want to give it a try said Angrele softly
Recall the task requirements in your mind. "Objective: Eliminate Baron Liao and take his head as proof of the task. According to the intelligence received, Kael Liao is also of knight-level strength and has a record of having killed more than ten heavily armored cavalry. However, he later fled in exhaustion." A hint of disdain appeared at the corner of Dis's mouth
The baron's expression remained gloomy as he toyed with a black cardstock in his hand, on which a blood-red spider pattern was printed against a pitch-black background. It appeared both eerie and magnificent
Angrel Lio. Strength 0.8, Agility 2.4, Constitution 1.6
If it were not for habit, he would have the strength to charge directly into the castle and unleash a massacre, then retreat unscathed
Odysseus licked his lips. "What is there to fear? Even if he comes, the three of us, as knight-class warriors, are not just sitting here for nothing."
However, this task is indeed quite easy. Going to the countryside to eliminate a minor lord, and he is merely an ordinary knight level. The knight does not care about the so-called achievements of the opponent; every knight-level powerhouse he has defeated has had similar impressive records. He has seen enough of them.
The two guards were quite familiar with Angre's strength, and there were no animals on the outskirts of the forest that could pose a threat to him, so both of them walked back leisurely with the items in their hands
A white feathered arrow shot out with a whoosh
The small snake on the tree trunk is about the thickness of a thumb, with only a blood-red eye on its forehead, which is the origin of its name, the snake with a red single eye. The skin of the snake is exactly the same color as the gray tree trunk; if it weren't for the white feathered arrow keeping a close watch on it, the two guards walking behind would have almost failed to recognize it.
A guard returned with the prey. Another person sat down on the grass beside him
The two guards exchanged glances, momentarily at a loss for words.
Angrel nodded, understanding that not everyone would benefit from the same thing. The analysis provided by the chip also mentioned the issue of compatibility. The eyeball of the one-eyed snake, when consumed raw, contains a substance that enhances agility for him. However, it is uncertain whether it would be effective for others. After all, individual constitutions vary, and there are significant differences depending on the growth stages of individuals.
The young man nodded, stepped forward, swiftly pulled out the white feathered arrow, grasped the head of the one-eyed snake, skillfully drew a small hunting knife, and forcefully extracted the red one-eyed creature, swallowing it whole.
Angelique smiled upon hearing this, but did not respond
"Young Master Angre, is this where we stop for today?" a guard inquired
Angele's lips revealed a satisfied curve
Moreover, Angrel's gaze fell upon the gap in the branch. There, a creature resembling a large-headed fly, with one of its transparent wings precisely severed, was struggling on the branch.
Assess my current physical fitness
In fact, we have heard before that consuming the eye of a one-eyed snake may be beneficial to health. There were people who tried it in the past, but it had no effect, the remaining guard said with a bitter smile
After all, such a hit rate is considered normal. In the dense forest, it is already quite good. Moreover, without receiving the seed inheritance, no matter how skilled one is in archery, lacking the strength to draw a high-quality large composite longbow still poses little threat to powerful warriors. At most, one can be regarded as a decent archer soldier.
