Chapter 1553: Chapter 1553: Turning the Tables on the Enemy
In the dimly lit forest, Gu Fan and Su Hui walked side by side with grave expressions. They could no longer concern themselves with the safety of the various groups; it was estimated that more than half had already died or been injured.
When Gu Fan and Su Hui arrived at a certain location, they saw a scene of corpses everywhere, with blood flowing like rivers, and most of the bodies on the ground were vampires.
The only ones among the various groups that could overpower the vampires were from the Hunter’s Guild, and it seemed that they were very close to Lin Yue’s location.
Su Hui carefully examined the vampires’ wounds. Besides their hearts being pierced by wooden bullets, there were many sword injuries as well, even on the surrounding tree trunks. Such terrifying swordsmanship could only belong to a hunter, or to Lin Yue.
"Impressive, so many vampires down? The Hunter’s Guild has sent some formidable elites this time." Gu Fan was very familiar with the strength of vampires; even a newly-transformed vampire was quite powerful, and difficult to deal with for even the most rigorously trained individuals.
The current scene showed a one-sided slaughter of vampires by the Hunter’s Guild, which definitely couldn’t be achieved by just the hunters and Lin Yue alone.
Gu Fan stroked his chin, pondering. It looked like there were quite a few experts among those who came from the Hunter’s Guild this time.
Su Hui thought of a point: the leader of the Hunter’s Guild was such a mysterious figure – considering that even the leader had come, would the Hunter’s Guild possibly deploy its strongest lineup to ensure the leader’s safety?
Gu Fan felt it made sense, but unfortunately, even if the Hunter’s Guild put forth their strongest formation, it still couldn’t possibly win against Organization X.
Continuing to look at the map, Gu Fan thought that with the onset of the battle, various groups being wiped out, the Hunter’s Guild would be in a situation of deep encirclement. Eventually, they would be surrounded by vampires coming from all directions. No matter how strong the hunters were, even if they fought until they were exhausted, they wouldn’t be able to break out.
Su Hui was somewhat worried. Should they hurry up and catch up to give the Hunter’s Guild a heads-up?
Gu Fan immediately picked up his phone to dial Lin Yue’s number, but just like before, the signal was jammed, very likely the doing of Organization X.
"What do we do?" Gu Fan looked at the vampire corpses again and suddenly realized a key point.
If Gu Fan and Su Hui could capture a vampire and force information about Organization X’s deployment out of them, then the Hunter’s Guild, unless they were foolish, should be able to do the same.
Su Hui nodded, she also believed that the Hunter’s Guild, upon realizing the situation was unfavorable, would definitely not advance rashly, and would instead retreat.
Gu Fan immediately took out the map and studied it once more, starting from that area and looking for a route to quickly leave the place.
The clouds hanging overhead were dark and dense, a vast oppressive mass, but if these clouds were indeed formed by Ye Yue casting a spell, then their coverage was definitely limited.
Gu Fan and Su Hui immediately jumped to the treetops, and seeing the light in the distance beyond the vast clouds, they figured that if they were the Hunter’s Guild, they would definitely retreat in the direction of the light.
With that in mind, Gu Fan and Su Hui immediately set off, rushing towards the direction of the light.
However, after traveling for a while, Gu Fan and Su Hui did not find any trace of the Hunter’s Guild’s passage, such as footprints, and they even encountered some vampire attacks.
Gu Fan captured a vampire and interrogated it, learning from the vampire that nearly all of the forces that had attacked this time had been wiped out. Now the vampires were ordered to expand the encirclement, pursuing and blocking the Hunter’s Guild. They hadn’t expected to run into Gu Fan.
Now, Gu Fan doubted his own judgment. If the Hunter’s Guild was indeed retreating, they should have encountered vampires on the retreat route and there would have been a fight, but there was no sign of battle along the way. Could it be that the hunters did not retreat along the route Gu Fan had deduced?
Su Hui suggested another possibility, which was that instead of retreating, the Hunter’s Guild advanced alone deep into enemy territory, but that was too risky unless the Hunter’s Guild was confident they could advance quickly and reach Xue Wang to finish the battle.
Gu Fan didn’t care about that much. He just wanted to ensure Lin Yue’s safety; otherwise, he really couldn’t explain himself to the Lin Family. After losing Lin Xi, they absolutely could not afford to lose Lin Yue as well.
Quickly reaching Xue Wang? Gu Fan pondered and felt it was impossible. The speed of vampires is very fast. Before the Hunter’s Guild could reach the location of Xue Wang, a large number of vampires could assemble and completely surround the Hunter’s Guild.
Gu Fan’s judgment was that if the Hunter’s Guild continued forward, there would only be a dead end.
But the problem was, the leader of the Hunter’s Guild should not be foolish, and the hunters would not make such a foolish move. It was unlikely the Hunter’s Guild would take such a risky action.
What was the problem? Or was there something Gu Fan hadn’t considered?
No matter how they thought about it, both Gu Fan and Su Hui couldn’t figure out any advantage the Hunter’s Guild could have by not retreating and instead advancing, so they still believed the Hunter’s Guild was more likely to choose retreat.
However, the huge noise that broke out from the battle caught the attention of both Gu Fan and Su Hui, and the battle lasted for quite some time.
"No way!" Gu Fan and Su Hui looked at each other, then immediately rushed to the site of the battle. Judging from the direction of the sounds, it was very close to the seaside villa.
Now the only ones who could still be fighting with Organization X were the Hunter’s Guild. Unexpectedly, the Hunter’s Guild really took action.
Gu Fan ran quickly, his heart anxious. He was really worried that if he was too late, he wouldn’t be able to salvage anything.
He really didn’t understand, was the Hunter’s Guild brainless? All the other forces had been defeated, and now only they were left with so few people. Could it be that they believed they could create a miracle? Unless the sun came out right now.
Wait a moment, Gu Fan thought of something, immediately stopped, and looked up at the cloud-filled sky.
"What’s the matter?" Su Hui was puzzled and didn’t know what Gu Fan was thinking.
With a frown, Gu Fan said, "I’m wondering, with so many talented and extraordinary individuals in the Hunter’s Guild, could there be someone who also knows magic?"
Su Hui instantaneously understood what Gu Fan meant. As the Hunter’s Guild ventured alone into enemy territory, they would inevitably provoke a full-scale onslaught by a large number of Organization X’s vampires. If the Hunter’s Guild could lure the vampires to an unobstructed place, and then the sun came out, thousands of vampires could potentially turn to ash.
If they were lucky, even Xue Wang might be lured out and could be eliminated.
If the Hunter’s Guild really had someone who could cast magic and this was indeed their plan, then this time Organization X was truly doomed.
Just as Gu Fan and Su Hui were about to move forward, they suddenly heard rustling noises from the surrounding forest, feeling like many enemies were rushing towards them.
"I knew I’d encounter you sooner or later." With a sharp shout, Mo Yun led her subordinates and charged over.
