Battle of Ascension

Chapter 120: Endless

It was not a challenge for Randy to clear the Duskwings. Just in a few moments the half of Duskwings were coming by the shriek one of Duskwings earlier cleared by Randy. In the process, he even tossed the crippled Duskwings to Zhen Yi as he noticed his wife still not used to face the hideous monster.

At first Zhen Yi really didn't want to face this hideous monsters, but Randy was tossing the crippled Duskwings to her to kill. She felt she became a burden for Randy, so she decided to join Randy.

Also, because of Randy who kept tossing the crippled Duskwings to her. She was beginning used by the face of the Duskwings and becoming less scared.

Afterward, both killed the Duskwings with ease. As Zhen Yi didn't have a super stat like him, Randy noticed that his wife had a little trouble when faced over 5 Duskwings at once.

He moved toward the front of his wife, blocked the incoming Duskwings only letting 2 to 3 Duskwings passed him for his wife to kill.

The shriek of pain and shriek to call the companion sounded from Duskwings as Randy and Zhen Yi slaughtered every Duskwings came to them. More Duskwings came after hearing the shriek and more Duskwings slaughtered too.

In the half hour, the shriek getting smaller and smaller before finally, the shriek gone, could not be heard anymore.

Actually, not all Duskwings died after half hour battle. The Duskwings ran away after it saw more and more its companion died before finally ran away.

Randy was surprised as he looked the ran away Duskwings. This was the first time for mob monsters ran after it could not defeat its enemy. Usually, the more monsters he killed the monsters grew angrier and would pounce toward him. However, these Duskwings were running away from him after it looked its companion getting slaughtered which surprised him.

The Lycanthrope, the first Rare mob monster he hunted was not like this. Lycanthrope was never running away from him even after he slaughtered its companion. Instead of running away from him, the Lycanthrope kept rushing toward him until all of them died.

What surprised him was his wife. When he looked the retreating monsters, there was a shadow flashed to chase after the monster and the shadow was his wife.

"Wasn't she afraid of the monster's hideous face? Then why would she chase after the Duskwings?"

He didn't understand, but he caught up with his wife immediately.

"Why are you chase after it? Isn't you afraid of that monster's face?" Asked Randy after he caught up.

"You want to claim this territory and I will meet them again if you claimed this territory. Might as well we annihilate it now so I will not meet it again later," Answered Zhen Yi as she ran, chase after Duskwings.

In the end, she could not catch up to it as it was flying in the air while she ran on the ground. Early she and Randy could slaughter the Duskwings because it was charging toward them, so it was easy for them to kill it. Now it was flying, made her and Randy could only kill a few of Duskwings.

Zhen Yi was staring the Duskwings which managed to run away. It was like She was harboring a great resentment toward Duskwings as it terrified her with its hideous face earlier.

Randy followed Zhen Yi's gaze which focused toward the retreating Duskwings. It retreated to the second highest mountain in Banten Territory. He already scouted over the Banten Territory and found 3 mountains.

Both already passed the lowest mountain where Lycanthrope's domain located. The second highest mountain was in the front while the highest mountain was behind the second highest mountain, about 15 minutes ran from the second highest mountain with his full speed.

Looking at his wife's face which full of resentment, Randy asked, "Want to chase to its den?"

Randy was sure the Duskwings retreated toward its den. Also if he was not mistaken, the Duskwings' den indeed in the second highest mountain. While he was scouting Banten Territory, he also marked every monster's den to make him easy to hunt.

Zhen Yi shook her head, "Nope, our priority is to find Territory King of Banten Territory. There are many places we haven't checked as he chased the Duskwings. We should check it first, it's not too late for us to kill it later,"

Randy didn't insist to chase the Duskwings. Eventually they would go to the second highest mountain if he could not find the Territory King in this area.

Afterward, both explored the area they passed while they were chasing the Duskwings earlier. In the process, they also found the loner Duskwings which later killed by Zhen Yi. Each time they found the Duskwings, Zhen Yi killed it.

It looked like his wife was harboring a deep grudge toward it. But he also found an interesting fact about Duskwings. Usually monster would eat meat but thus Duskwings was eating fruit instead of meat as he found one Duskwings took a fruit like a coconut but the fruit's color was red, not green like the normal coconut. When he and Zhen Yi found it, it was savoring the red fruit before his wife killed it.

After checked place after place. They didn't find any trace of Territory King. So they kept moving forward as they kept inspecting every place that had possibility the Territory King lived yet they found nothing until he and Zhen Yi reached the second highest mountain in the Banten Territory.

They circled the food of the mountain before finally climbed up. Apparently, Duskwings' domain was bigger than they expected. They never met other monsters beside the Duskwings after 2 hours browsed to find the Territory King.

As they climbed up, both met more and more Duskwings. The Duskwings noticed there were two intruders entered its domain. It shrieked, called its companion.

The amount of the Duskwings too many. It filled the sky and blocked the sunlight. It was not a problem for him, but he worried about Zhen Yi.

So, they kept retreating while killing the Duskwings which rushed toward them. Finally, the crowd Duskwings managed to push Randy and Zhen Yi back to the foot of the mountain.

But the amount of Duskwings also reduced, it still filled the sky, though, despite slaughtered by him and his wife in half an hour.

Randy also noticed his wife was panting as the Duskwings kept coming toward them. He rushed toward his wife and picked her up and retreated. He decided to take a rest first, recovered his and his wife stamina.

Even though he could fight the sea of Duskwings, but he knew he already consumed half of stamina. That was why he decided to take a rest after he saw Zhen Yi was panting.

The Duskwings chased after him, but it was just a matter of time before finally it lost Randy's trail. Randy fed Zhen Yi stamina potion as he carried her to hasten her recovery stamina, he also took one for himself. After the Duskwings lost Randy's trail, it back to its den.

After half hour rest, both back to the Duskwings' den. Which later the sea of Duskwings rushed toward them again. The Duskwings were endless; it kept pouncing toward them yet the amount of Duskwings seemed still the same. After an hour Randy and Zhen Yi retreated again.

Half an hour later, both came back again to the Duskwings' den, slaughtered the Duskwings. But still, the amount of Duskwings which coming toward them was like the same as they first time came here.

After the fourth times they retreated, Randy and Zhen Yi ended their hunt here and decided to go back tomorrow.

Today hunt was so exhausted for Zhen Yi. Before She never felt exhausted like now when she was hunting alone, today was the first time for her to consume stamina potion even.

She wondered if Randy always hunting like this. When they were slaughtering the Demon Kolor Ijo at the ruined city. Randy also used this method, lured all monsters to him.
