For a mont, Hiri instinctively wanted to open a teleportation gate to escape, sothing almost ingrained in her very bones as a reflex and habit.
But she forcibly restrained herself, growing increasingly anxious and doubtful, because the Wild Hunt was already advancing, yet her side remained motionless, making her suspect that she might have been tricked, further questioning her thoughts and decisions at that ti.
But in the very next instant, everything ca to an abrupt halt.
The Wild Hunt, surging like a tidal wave, suddenly stopped.
The demon spirits of the Wild Hunt were like marionettes whose strings had been cut, suddenly ceasing all movent. They seed frozen in mid-air, and a second later, their forms directly crumbled, their phantom bodies dissipating completely like fluorescent light.
Only a few figures let out screams, and their Doppler-effected screams sounded quite ridiculous as they fell freely, plumting into the distant forest…
The cold currents and winds also subsided, enveloping the entire island in silence in an instant.
The white-haired girl stood atop the mountain peak, a bit at a loss. She hadn't even seen clearly what had happened. Was that nightmarish army so easily crushed?
Instinctively, she glanced back at the volcano's crater. The demon hunter girl hesitated for a mont before quickly heading in the other direction. It seed a few people had fallen over there, likely the innocent captives the Wild Hunt had seized. She knew a bit about this, and thus planned to go see.
Hiri recalled what the "Mage" who once demanded she repay a debt said, that this island was actually alive... So those people should survive the fall, not ending up as nothing more than a bloody ss.
"Even though I anticipated it, this is still unexpectedly weak..."
Standing on a mountain near the volcanic zone, Gu Mo furrowed his brow and rubbed his temple with a slender index finger. He realized he had overestimated the Wild Hunt's level, overexerting his force and directly crushing the entire army—those who entered his field of vision were wiped out instantly by his mind power!
It was certainly because his current mind power was unfathomable, but also due to the high "sand" content on the Wild Hunt's side...
Perhaps because those demon spirits of the Wild Hunt were in spectral form, akin to spiritual bodies, immune to physical harm to a large extent, but conversely, spiritual attack and magic attack could inflict real damage?
Gu Mo could only speculate as much, and couldn't help but ponder further.
Speaking of which, the Ancient Blood truly held extraordinary mysteries.
Hiri could freely traverse worlds, leaving aside the Wild Hunt who, despite having lost this complete talent, could still appear in other worlds in spectral form. It's like their entire race, regardless of strength, mastered a divine skill akin to "plane projection," their true forms in their ho world, projecting into other ti-spaces.
Thinking of it this way, he beca even more intrigued by the secrets hidden within Hiri's bloodline.
And at this mont, a few figures appeared on the distant mountain path. The white-haired girl, leading a group of people who could either be called unlucky victims or fortunate survivors, was heading his way. The forr, possessing considerable potential due to her lineage and having received so demon hunter training, naturally moved swiftly, while the few others, once their fear slightly abated, dared not lag behind.
They gritted their teeth to keep pace, but were astonished to find their stamina seemingly better than expected. As they traversed through woods and over mountains, they felt hardly any fatigue, their bodies invigorated by the refreshingly pure air, moving with an unforeseen ease.
The elder among them felt this change even more acutely, keeping up while taking in the surroundings, casting a wary glance toward the figure quietly waiting on the mountain ahead.
After all, he had weathered many storms, yet still struggled to process the events unfolding since earlier... Of course, it wasn't just him; Victor, the young man opposite, was similar, whereas the other man and woman, apparently deckhands, seed unable to think rationally, shaking with fear.
They were unexpectedly snatched away by the Wild Hunt...
Dragged humiliatingly and magically behind horses across the sky...
The howling wind and terrifying height made them wonder if they were dreaming, their minds filled with dread, not knowing what horrors awaited them. Would they really be taken to the Netherworld, as the legends say?
Yet these terrifying speculations were abruptly halted as the mysterious force cleanly wiped out the Wild Hunt army.
They fell from the sky, miraculously unhard, and were quickly found and led away by a white-haired girl... Although Hiri said nothing, just urged them to follow, the fear-stricken group willingly complied, their fear cooled to reveal a mix of excitent and trepidation.
They seed on the verge of encountering a new world!
......
"Just these few people left, right?"
