My Magic Age

Chapter 117 118. Trap Hunting Method

The running crowd was like a stone thrown into a calm pond, and immediately ripples appeared around the stone.

A feather arrow flew from the sky with a whistling sound, and landed less than three feet away from the feet of the young demon antelope who was on guard. The sharp arrowhead pierced deeply into the rock layer, and the wooden arrow shaft swayed at a speed invisible to the naked eye with a "buzzing" sound, and the momentum gradually weakened.

The demon antelope stared with horror, and immediately tightened every muscle in its body when it saw the feather arrow on the ground. The erected long horns immediately turned into a fighting posture. The big eyes looked around in panic, and finally saw the beastmen running over from a distance.

With a long hiss of "baa~", the demon antelope was the first to sound a warning.

The herd of demon antelopes that were grazing silently stopped immediately. At this moment, it became extremely quiet. The ram leader raised his head first, looked at the young demon antelope in confusion, and then finally turned around to find the beastmen who were still rushing over from a distance. Seeing them waving their slingshots, they also neighed long, and jumped up high with four hooves at the same time, rushing to the other side of the grass slope. The remaining dozens of demon antelopes followed the ram leader and ran in panic.

In an instant, the tender grass on the sunny slope of the sand hill was trampled by the chaotic sheep, and the leaves flew everywhere.

They did not rush to the back slope of the sand hill as we thought, but ran to the other side along the sand hill slope.

Like a gust of breeze, the speed of the demon antelopes running with their hooves spread out would make people feel terrified. Every time they jumped, they could almost jump out a distance of seven or eight meters. I saw it very clearly from this side. I think even with Catalina's terrifying speed, she might not be able to catch up with these demon antelopes.

I turned around and looked at Katarina who was standing beside me, and found that she had begun to clench her fists nervously, her eyes fixed on the leader of the demon antelope.

Actually, I was squatting in the grass on the easternmost side of the sand hill. In order not to attract the attention of the demon antelope, Katarina even lay on the grass. My place was also the easternmost end of the trap belt, and Qige was on the other side, a full kilometer away from me. Our two points, the trap belt in the north and Kuz in the south had formed an encirclement, but it seemed that our hunting plan was a bit like a child's play. Not to mention the small number of people, there were Katarina and me on one side of the east and west sides, and Qige on the other side.

Before leaving, Geerle and the female orcs also walked and talked casually. If Geerle hadn't led the team, I think they would have run away directly. Their orc language mixed with strong dialects was full of suspicion and distrust of us.

At this time, the sheep just rushed towards me. I wanted to be lazy and didn't drive the sheep with Kuz. I guess the sheep have the highest probability of turning around and running to the back slope, followed by fleeing to both sides, or choosing a direction to break through, and finally running away in all directions. These situations are all possible. The probability of running to my side will not be higher than 30%. My purpose is to be lazy, so I accepted the task of blocking the escape route of the demon antelopes in the east.

However, I guess that in the eyes of those female orcs, the leading male demon antelope only needs to lower the long horns on its head and step directly on my body to rush over easily. I may be picked up high on the long horns by the crazy male demon antelope and groan in pain. How can I stop the group of strong demon antelopes? When the female orcs who surrounded from the front and swung the long slings in their hands saw the panicked demon antelopes rushing towards me like crazy, a figure suddenly rushed out of the crowd, and used the speed of the figure to turn himself into a series of afterimages, leaving behind.

At such a high speed, I couldn't even see her face clearly. I could only tell from her female beastman outfit that she was not Kuz.

She called out loudly, with a long whistle coming out of her mouth.

"That's Geerle!" Qi Ge covered her mouth in surprise and looked at Geerle who was running faster and faster on the grass, lying beside me and said to me.

I saw Geerle waving the slingshot in her hand, trying to get in front of the demon antelopes, blocking their running momentum, or making them change direction. Maybe she always thought, I'm just pretending here. A seven or eight-year-old human boy stood in front of the demon antelopes. What else could that be?

Her speed was much faster than the beast girls behind her, not to mention Kuz who fired an ultra-long-distance arrow halfway. That guy dragged his tongue and panted behind, and he was exhausted and couldn't catch up with any of the beast girls. The pebble the size of Geerle's fist flew over like a meteor, hitting a demon antelope directly, making a sound like hitting a broken leather.

But in the chaos, I could only hear the demon antelope's neigh. The sheep did not slow down at all, but instead made the whole flock of sheep increase its speed again and continue to run towards me.

I stood up from the grass, holding the hunting rifle steadily in my hand and aiming at the leading male demon antelope, lowering my head and whispering to Katarina on the side: "Are you sure you can protect yourself?"

"If you don't have time to recite the spell, or recite the spell wrong, I will hold you and run together. My 'flash' is very fast!" Katarina tried to calm herself down and forced a smile to me.

I know that no matter how I persuade her, it is difficult to persuade her to leave. There is no way. She is stubborn and it is difficult to be persuaded. She is worried about my safety, and even this worry is more important than her life, so she will take the risk to follow me, and she did it in front of Qi Ge. As Qi Ge's personal maid, I don't know what kind of trouble this will bring her. I think I should talk to Qi Ge about this matter later, and I found that I have fallen in love with this timid and kind red-haired girl, not for anything else, just because she is wholeheartedly good to me.

Now, I no longer felt the faint touch in my heart. I felt that when danger came, she should have stood with me to face it. I accepted her concern, and I also wanted to release my concern for her, so I said: "If my shot fails to stop the flock of sheep, then you should hug me quickly. I should be able to take you to perform the "Shadow Cloak". Sister Guoguo and I tried it like this before. I can do it."

I repeated my words again, and saw that in a flash, the herd of demon antelopes was about to rush into my attack range. Countless shallow tracks appeared in my spiritual sea, and the tracks were constantly changing. The tentacles of the giant tentacle monster, the other end of these tracks connected to each demon antelope rushing towards me, and those illusory track lines in my eyes were also constantly shortening.

My mind just turned a little, and I only thought of the demon antelope leader in my heart. The next moment, there was only one line connected to the demon antelope leader in my eyes, and the crosshairs of the phantom happened to be on the track line.

The magic power was injected into the hunting rifle with my hand. After a moment, the magic circle of the hunting rifle flashed, and with a "bang", a flame burst out from the muzzle. A copper bean drew a long red line and shot on the forehead of the demon antelope leader, sparks flew everywhere. The huge impact force pushed the demon antelope leader's head up high, and the tuft of white hair on his forehead was burnt.

My perception was attached to the copper pea. I clearly felt the moment when the copper pea exploded on the sheep's head. Those hot sparks shot out, and some of the semi-circular copper peas broke the sheepskin on the skull of the demon antelope, but deeply embedded in the skull, causing the demon antelope to raise its two front hooves high in pain. Under the rapid gallop, it rushed forward abruptly, and its body twisted directly to the left in the air, suddenly changed direction, and fled to the north.

The following herds of sheep were also trying to adjust to this sharp turn. Some of the demon antelopes that ran too aggressively could not stop their bodies and fell out in such a sharp turn. However, most of the demon antelopes still completed this difficult action and continued to follow the leader and rushed forward together.

I watched with fear as the group of demon antelopes turned around 50 or 60 meters away from me. Then I let out a long breath, put the hunting rifle on my shoulder, and patted Katarina who was just hugging my waist behind me. This girl was wearing a dry and hard leather armor. It was definitely not a pleasant thing for her to hug me from behind. The leather armor was too uncomfortable.

Qi Ge in the distance also waved to me, congratulating me on my successful blocking. Kuz then caught up with Geerle, who was staring at me in amazement, holding the alloy bow. This girl was frightened by my shot. The power of the silver-plated shotgun was completely beyond her imagination. It actually faced the magic antelope and hit the skull of the magic antelope, and it could also injure the magic antelope. This power is very impressive.

The flock rushed to the back slope of the sand hill together after more than ten seconds and disappeared from our sight.

Kuz and I looked at each other and followed with our weapons. I heard the sound of a piece of ice breaking from behind the sand hill, followed by another piece of sound. The cold air spread instantly, and the screams of the magic antelopes continued. Kuz and I walked to the sand hill together and looked down. More than 20 magic antelopes of different sizes were lying scattered on the grass. Almost every sheep had ice on its legs, and the ice marks spread all the way to the knees.

However, dozens of demon antelopes still broke through the trap belt and fled to the northwest.

The three-meter-wide minefield was a bit narrow. An adult demon antelope could jump eight or nine meters away. If they were lucky, they could almost cross the trap belt without any damage. However, if the demon antelopes were unlucky, once they stepped on the trap, they would have to experience the painful feeling of being frozen by ice. Kuz could no longer bear it and ran down the sand hill with the alloy bow.
