Chapter 271: Chapter 244: Confronting a Rank 6 Hunter!_1

Flame Path Melting Furnace Tower Spirit Realm Area.

Above the sky, a dense network of furnace flame paths interlaced with each other.

Legendary forging, underway.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

"..."

Accompanied by the dull sounds of forging.

The outlines of a several meters tall elf forging a Heroic Spirit emerged atop Barkin’s High Tower.

Each hammer strike could stir up a halo of air waves spanning hundreds of meters.

Amidst the grandiose waves of this legendary forging process.

In the distance, beneath a melting furnace tower more than forty meters high, a fierce battle was taking place.

The fighting parties, one was Tuck.

The other was a formidable Level 47 Steam Hunter from another domain.

This Level 47, formidable Alien Hunter from a foreign domain possessed astonishing strength.

He was fighting Tuck to a standstill at this moment.

Whether it was speed, movement techniques, blade skills, or the comprehension of the Thunder Rune Mystique of the blade technique secret canon, all were at an extremely high level.

Looking across the entire St. Land, he also belonged to the top masters among Fourth Rank hunters.

While retreating, Tuck continuously unleashed his witchcraft.

Fireball, Fire Oil splash, Hurricane Blade, Arcane Shot, Fate Shot, and other fast-firing techniques mixed with the more powerful Sculpting Light Spear and other magics.

Sometimes fast, sometimes slow, whether it was long-range precise single-target breakthroughs or close-range saturation attacks.

These spells, in Tuck’s hands, took on various forms.

Following a perfect rhythm, they created a well-timed and disparate assault.

Constantly descending upon that Level 47 Hunter.

And the Level 47 Hunter, clad in purple Thunder Armor, wielding an One Ring Status purple Rune Longsword.

Each step he took was like rolling thunder.

The blade’s edge, even faster than lightning when it fell.

Throughout the fight, the Steam Hunter kept using the blade to "block," or deflect Tuck’s spells with the edge.

If faced with Tuck’s exploding fireballs, or the more aggressive Sphere of Shaping Light - Ball.

He would quickly dodge these magics with his movement techniques, then close the gap with Tuck.

The hate in the eyes of this Level 47 Hunter was chilling, and his killing intent was overwhelming, completely disregarding life and death.

At this moment, his sole target was the wizard right before him.

To kill this Third Rank Wizard, that was his entire will at this moment.

And this Level 47 Alien Steam Hunter’s surging desire to kill Tuck was naturally because... before this, Tuck had already killed all of his teammates.

They had a squad of nine people.

Three Fourth Rank Hunters, none of them weak.

Six Third Rank Hunters, all above Level 36.

Yet such a powerful hunter squad.

Was so easily slain by this Third Rank Wizard in a direct confrontation, in a short period, leaving only him alive.

This Third Rank Wizard, with vicious methods and powerful magic, if not for witnessing it firsthand.

"Akus" simply would not believe that such a terrifyingly powerful Third Rank Wizard could exist in this world.

In the midst of the fight.

The Second Rank Wizard’s Robe that had been with Tuck for so long was completely torn apart.

Revealing the Fourth Rank silver Transcendent Chainmail beneath the robe.

Even the Fourth Rank Chainmail bore many scars.

As for Tuck himself, he too had sustained light injuries.

Just now.

This group of hunters executed a very special attack technique called "Soul Hunting."

This dual attack, targeting the soul and Origin Energy, was something Tuck found difficult to avoid.

Luckily.

Thanks to the full-range soul defense capability of the Third Rank Dragon Scale Armor, which fused perfectly with Tuck, as well as Tuck’s own strong Soul Rune Mystery in the Five Rings Status, and the distribution of damage by the Soul Shadow.

Tuck withstood such a fierce attack.

But Tuck had also been injured a bit.

Having resisted the "Soul Hunting" and several other long-range attacks.

Once the distance was increased, that was when Tuck dominated the battlefield and the killing began.

Without any hesitation, Tuck went all out and quickly wiped out everyone else in the hunter squad.

And with this Level 47 Alien Steam Hunter, on one hand, Tuck wanted to use him to practice, and on the other hand, he wanted to capture him alive.

After all, there were three Steam Cores inside his body.

Once dead, the Sequence would collapse, and the Steam Cores would be no more.

But now, it seemed difficult to capture him alive.

"Forget it, this guy is very strong, might have fully assimilated the absorption of the Steam Cores."

"Capturing him alive, it’s not guaranteed that suitable Steam Cores can be extracted."

"Especially those of higher levels, they absorb Steam Cores deeper, and even if extracted, the outline of the Steam Core may not be visible anymore."

"Also... the Steam Cottage has already devoured several Steam Cores, it doesn’t lack these few."

As such thoughts crossed his mind, Tuck simply stopped tangling with the other party.

With one retreating step, Tuck teleported away more than thirty meters.

Seeing the Third Rank Wizard pull away so far.

Fourth Rank Steam Hunter "Akus" felt a sudden jolt in his face, his mouth parched and his soul slightly trembling.

"Finally! Is it coming?"

The terrifying spells previously displayed by this wizard, alongside that unbelievable mobility.

Were utterly crushing.

This led to the swift slaughter of his teammates by the wizard.

But after that, the wizard had not continued to use such powerful techniques.

Rather, like a cat playing with a mouse, he was constantly using him to practice his magic as if he were an Apprentice Wizard hitting a puppet post.

And now.

The wizard had once again widened the distance.

With waves of magic swelling one after another, Akus felt as if Death itself was beckoning him.

But Akus still clenched his teeth and stepped through the Wind Rune Mystique’s gait.

Onward!

Onward!

And then forward again!

An even denser, faster storm of magic raged towards him, like an overwhelming deluge.

Especially those densely packed wind blades, imbued with a significant amount of Spirit Rune Mystery that sent shivers through his mind, swept over all his senses, filling his entire field of vision.

There were far too many wind blades, a saturation attack.

As Akus blocked one wind blade, five or six more would pierce his flesh.

The enemy’s magic attacks were too many, too fast—he could not fend them off.

Within a few breaths, the dense cyan wind blades, like waves, slashed Akus’s body, covering him with blood.

His body was on the verge of collapsing.

"I’m afraid... even my teacher’s insight into the Wind Rune Mystique may not be as profound as this Third Rank Wizard!"

As a chilling wind blade, over a meter wide, swept towards him and severed Akus’s head,

this was his last thought.

"Bang!"

The head spun and tumbled through the air.

In the final moment, Akus saw a demon with a cruel smile, opening its wide mouth, waiting for his head to fall.

"Crunch!"

The Flame Demon, Hettara, who couldn’t help but moan in ecstasy as he crushed the willingly fallen human head in his mouth, thought,

"I never imagined a day when heads would just fall into my mouth like this!"

"Wuu... It’s really too delicious!"

This scene perfectly caught the eye of a Steam Hunter lurking in a distant corner, silently observing.

"Just now, it was the tragic death of ’Besleya’, that genius Hunter."

"And now, it’s the complete annihilation of ’Akus’ entire team."

"This Third Rank Wizard is too formidable. Even if I went up against him, I couldn’t say with certainty that I would win; in fact, I could even capsize in a ditch."

"Indeed, the fact that this Third Rank Wizard’s magic is formidable is one thing, but more importantly, he’s too agile. How can his traversal magic be so fast? It’s like instantaneous movement with his stepping and maneuvering."

"This doesn’t conform to the basic rules and framework of Transcendent Witchcraft."

"Did you all not notice his mastery in Rune Mystique?"

"We noticed, and indeed it’s terrifying."

"So many kinds of Rune Mystiques, all very powerful. It’s really hard to say how this Third Rank fellow has trained."

"It couldn’t be... that this Third Rank Wizard is him, could it?"

"The likelihood is high."

"Steam Wizard, Third Rank, it all matches up."

Meanwhile, Tuck, manipulating a three-star-grade "Rune Storm Holder" spell in front of him as concentrated as a grinding wheel, looked over to a corner a distance away and said indifferently,

"If you don’t leave now, don’t blame me for being unkind."

"All four of you together wouldn’t stand a chance, I could slowly kill you all."

Tuck’s voice, akin to that of a demon, in combination with the Demon Hettara feasting beside him, was particularly impactful.

Those Fourth Rank and Fifth Rank Hunters who were still watching,

hesitated for a moment, then turned and left.

These Hunters and the ones who had attacked before were different.

They hid around with more patience,

obviously planning to hunt when Tuck and his allies left.

But once Tuck got his hands on the Demon Staff, he didn’t give them a chance.

He launched into a bloody slaughter.

In just over two hours, Tuck had already wiped out at least five teams, over thirty people.

Even two Fourth Rank Steam Hunters had fallen to Tuck’s hands.

Bervis and Oslyn couldn’t spot these deeply hidden and disguised Hunters.

But Tuck could find them with unerring accuracy.

Now, Tuck’s terrifying strength was finally taking a deterrent effect.

Even Fifth Rank Hunters were reluctant to face Tuck head-on.

After this recent wave of Hunters left,

Tuck then turned to a window in the nearby High Tower.

After a pause, Tuck said solemnly,

"This Sixth Rank Hunter senior, you wouldn’t want to get involved in this mess, would you?"

As Tuck’s gaze and voice reached out,

the window rippled like undulating water.

A half-transparent figure of a Steam Hunter, a Sixth Rank powerhouse, emerged wearing a hunting robe.

Steam Hunter.

Wizard Hunters who used various spells to carry out their Hunting.

They were spellcasters within the Hunter Sequence.

And in the Sequence Era, they combined the Steam Core with the Hunter’s Sequence.

Completing the development of the "Steam Hunter" Sequence.

"What if I insist on completing my hunt today?" said the otherworldly Sixth Rank "Steam Hunter" slowly.

"You won’t gain anything, trust me,"

Tuck said earnestly.

"On the contrary, if senior makes a move, you’ll be rewarded with a personal manhunt from Regan Joe, the Archbishop of the Three-Eyed God Church!"

"And the God Church will issue a warrant for your arrest... forever!"

Tuck’s words led the "Steam Hunter" to scrutinize him carefully.

Then he smiled and said,

"What a solid background."

"Blasphemer... Tuck?"

Tuck did not respond.

He discerned that faint presence.

The Sixth Rank "Steam Hunter" narrowed his eyes and then faded away.

With the departure of the Sixth Rank "Steam Hunter,"

Tuck saluted the empty air, then began clearing the battlefield.
