High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late Chapter 215 - 188: Su Mu’s Honest Words Fall on Deaf Ears, B

"Zhou Lie was subdued with one move?!"

The one-eyed man leading the Black Tiger Hunting Corps broke out in a cold sweat, subconsciously stepping back several steps. Zhou Lie, who had just made a move, was a Sixth Level Martial Artist in the group, ranked third in strength within the corps.

Even he found it difficult to defeat Zhou Lie in a short ti, yet Zhou Lie, with such power, couldn’t even retaliate against Su Mu, not even able to draw his sword. For a mont, the mbers of the Black Tiger Hunting Corps fell into silence.

"This person... strong indeed!"

"Fortunately, fortunately..."

The man with a square face who invited Su Mu into the corps was also amazed in his heart and broke out in a cold sweat. Initially, he had so designs on Su Mu because this man was too generous with his moves. Now, he was very glad that he hadn’t made a move back then.

If he had, he wouldn’t be standing here now.

No one dared to stop Su Mu from leaving, and gradually a few people listened to Su Mu’s advice.

"Leader, my skills are insufficient, I should leave."

" too."

But it’s hard to persuade a ghost seeking death even with kind words. Su Mu was not wrong in his thoughts; honest words are unpleasant to hear, and more people still stayed in the temporary hunting corps.

"Humph, that person spoke grandiosely, maybe he’s thinking of taking everything for himself with a bit of strength."

"Everyone, rest assured, that person was just trying to scare us. Our Black Tiger Hunting Corps will definitely charge at the forefront. Everyone just needs to follow our command. With so many of us, capturing the Fire Flood Dragon is more than sufficient. We share the fortune and the hardship together, let’s go!"

"Exactly, we still have a hundred people here. No matter how mighty the Fire Flood Dragon is, it’s only one beast, and the whole body of the Fire Flood Dragon is full of treasures. Once we can take it down, it’s not just the Fire Flood Dragon but also the wealth of another Quasi-B-Class Hunting Corps. Let’s fight for it!"

"Fight for it, and moreover, the Black Tiger Hunting Corps is going ahead!"

The crowd’s confidence soared, with a barely noticeable mockery flashing in the eye of the One-Eyed Dragon.

After leaving the temporary hunting corps, Su Mu began exploring along the swampy area. Soon enough, he paused.

The Golden Essence Qi in his lungs transmitted an unprecedented vibration.

He rotated his body in the indicated direction.

Quickly, he found that he had moved away from the direction of the swamp. Su Mu imdiately took out a map to confirm this. The west side of the swamp was marked in blue on the map.

"Over there is a Crescent Ice Lake, a lake shaped like a crescent, nad so due to the year-round biting cold."

The Fire Flood Dragon should be a fire-attributed Fierce Beast. Normally, it shouldn’t go to a cold place, as this would significantly limit its power.

"Let’s go take a look first."

The trembling of the Golden Essence Qi was unusually intense, sothing Su Mu encountered for the first ti. If he could find a sufficient quantity of Rare tals, it would greatly benefit the enhancent of the Golden Essence Qi.

Thus, he planned to travel along the swamp. If he happened upon the Fire Flood Dragon, he would deal with it first. If not, he would continue through the swamp to check out the Crescent Ice Lake.

Su Mu acted swiftly and decisively. After determining his plan, he stepped forward briskly, his steps light and rapid, moving effortlessly despite the swamp’s mud.

"Seems like my luck isn’t too good... I wonder what’s going on over there?"

During this ti, Su Mu didn’t hear any signs of fighting nearby, so he looked away and continued on his path.

...

"Big brother, I’ve confird it, that guy isn’t around."

"That’s good."

"The Fire Flood Dragon’s tracks are fresh. I guess it’s just a little further ahead."

"Is everything ready?"

"Ready."

The one-eyed man quickly shared the exhilarating news of finding the Fire Flood Dragon’s tracks, "Everyone, we’ve discovered the Fire Flood Dragon, just ahead, everyone, prepare for battle."

"Next is the battle plan. Our Black Tiger Hunting Corps has prepared powerful traps. The traps are relatively complex and require specific personnel to operate, so they will be handled by mbers of our Black Tiger Hunting Corps."

"At the sa ti, we need a group to cooperate and temporarily act as ’bait’ to lure the Fire Flood Dragon out and into the trap, after which we will take action."

Upon hearing this, many people’s expressions changed imdiately, as nobody wanted to be the bait.

The robust one-eyed man let out a cold humph.

"There’s no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Now that you’re here, are you going to back off at this point? If you quit now, am I to think you are toying with our Black Tiger Hunting Corps, or is it that you intend to be our enemies?!"

Imdiately, the nineteen mbers of the Black Tiger Hunting Corps stood together, a thick wave of Qi and Blood spreading outward. A few seconds later, the robust one-eyed man pressed his hand down.

"We’re all brothers here, stay calm. Also, rest assured, I will be part of this group and act together. Our Black Tiger Hunting Corps won’t abandon any of you."

Under the balance of threats and promises, the crowd’s expressions slightly improved. Seeing this, the robust one-eyed man continued.

"Those acting as ’bait’ will have priority in the distribution after the Fire Flood Dragon is slain, and afterwards, our Black Tiger Hunting Corps will reward each with three pounds of Spirit Marrow as extra compensation."

Hearing this, many people sighed with relief, but mostly young hunters. anwhile, a number of seasoned hunters silently retreated a few steps, unwilling to beco bait.

Soon the battle plan was set. Fifteen people were to act as bait, the Black Tiger Hunting Corps mbers handled the trap setup, and the rest were split into two groups of over thirty each. They would ambush from both flanks, ready to encircle and attack the Fire Flood Dragon at any mont.

"Move out!"

"Alright."

With one command, the temporary hunting corps advanced with formidable montum.

Everything proceeded according to plan. The traces of the Fire Flood Dragon’s activity on the ground beca clearer and more abundant. Everyone held their breaths, fixedly staring all around.

"Let’s start setting up the traps."

Soon, the Black Tiger Hunting Corps mbers took out large crossbows that glead with a chilling light. The crossbow arrows were as tall as a person. These large crossbows were set up amid the dense forest, and so were placed at higher locations.
