Translator: NightinWolf Editor: GSD
Explosion sounded like a thunderbolt as numerous rocks splashed around.
The small building was razed to the ground, only leaving few scattered rocks. The two building on its right and left side had also been exposed by its shockwave and had collapsed half the way.
Smoke and dust was diffused into air.
Bang!
A slate was pushed open from the small building closeby. Dudian climbed out and looked at flat building. He was shocked as he didn’t think the destructive power of the yellow explosives would be so amazing. Fortunately, he had ignited the explosives and left the building. Or else, it would be his grave.
He sniffed a bit and soon found the source of location from where Linda’s bloody smell was emitted. It was coming from bottom of the pile.
He shook off the dust and decided to go and check out if she was dead or alive. However he suddenly stopped as he thought of previous situation where he was almost killed by her brother. She couldn’t be waiting inside so that he moves away the rubble to be attacked at the last second.
He went away but returned after a while. He had brought back fabric and withered dry wood. He throw everything on rubble and lit the torch. Dry wood and clothing began to burn up and a strong fire was made.
In about 10 minutes the fire extinguished.
Dudian looked at the rock that were burned by the flame. He thought that if she was determined to forbear the pain she would be able to stay alive. He left to the opposite side of the small building where he had put the bag with yellow explosives.
He brought two yellow explosives and put them into the rubble. He rolled a paper and stuck it to explosives.
After he finished making everything he lid the paper and run away to wait for the combustion. The paper was slowly burning when he saw the explosives roll down as the clay and crust was moving.
Suddenly, the rocks were pushed away as a bloody figure jumped from inside out. She quickly grabbed the explosives and threw it towards Dudian.
Dudian quickly raised his hands and caught the explosives. Moreover he pinched the paper to avoid the explosion. He knew that shell was not going to detonate.
However he still throw away them. He looked at the gloomy and bloody figure. Linda was still alive.
Linda was in a devastating state. Her left arm was completely fried while debris was embedded onto her body as the armor was not meant to protect her from explosion. She was taking in big breaths while tightly staring at Dudian. There were fresh burn marks on her face. Apparently it had happened when Dudian had burned dry wood. Most probably some of them had fallen onto her face through the gap in rocks.
But she had held back and didn’t say anything.
Dudian saw her devil-like appearance. His heart was cold as patience such as this was beyond his imagination. But it also let him realize how horrible the existance were silver level hunters.
Whoosh!
He rapidly pulled the string and shot the arrows.
At the moment, the distance between both of them were less than ten meters.
Linda saw that Dudian throw away the stone shell. She was startled. Although she didn’t know what this thing was but it was familiar to the ‘hissing’ sound she had before. Why the sound was eliminated in his hands?
She tried to escape the arrows that were aimed at her but her legs were too seriously injured. One of the arrows hit her abdomen forcing her body to flew back and hit the ground.
As for the sword, she had lost it while the explosion and wasn’t aware about its location.
Dudian quickly put the second arrow and pulled the string.
Puff!
The second shot hit her shoulder.
Dudian was relentless as he took the third arrow and aimed at her forehead!
Linda made a last ditch and quickly rolled sideways to avoid being hit in the face.
Dudian frowned and used his hand to take another arrow from the quiver but it was empty.
Linda turned around and noticed the scene. There was a trace of gloomy smile on his face: “Little devil, if you want to kill me then you will die with me!” She grabbed onto the arrow that was stabbed on her abdomen and pulled out in one breath. She staggered as she stood up but took a deep breath and rushed towards Dudian.
Dudian didn’t escape as because of Linda’s speed he wouldn’t be able to run away. No matter how fast he run he will be caught so he stood and waited her while he stared directly at her eyes. When she was about three meters away from him, his hand suddenly lifted.
Whoosh!
A shadow left his palm.
Puff! Blood spattered off.
Linda who was running at full speed suddenly fell backward to the ground. A dagger had pierced into her throat.
In such a short distance, speed of dagger was in no way inferior to the arrow’s speed. Linda couldn’t react on time because of her serious injuries. Unless, she was brought back to the giant wall, even if Dudian didn’t shot her she would die later on.
“Giggle … …” blood bubbled out of Linda’s mouth. Her trachea was block so blood wasn’t able to circulate properly.
Dudian grabbed few stones and throw at her.
Linda’s body trembled. Her body struggled as she moved her head to stare at him. Her mouth slightly opened but couldn’t utter anything.
Dudian’s brows wrinkled as he got closer to her and said: “You and your brother are quite alike. He was so unwilling when he died. Oh, did I forget to tell you? In fact, it was me who had killed your brother!”
Linda’s eyes widened because of agitation but it affected muscles of her throat. She coughed up a mouthful of blood. She was staring at her eyes as she issued a ‘hum’ sound. But her body was too injured and was unable to stand up. Her arm stayed stiff in the air before falling down.
Dudian looked carefully. It was not a lie. He piecked a large stone and hit her head severly. She still didn’t respond. He was relieved to see her dead. He bent down and pulled out the dagger from her throat. However, for her not to turn into an undead, he completely cut it off.
Afterwards, he was completely assured of her death. His tight body loosened and he felt the cold sweat soaking down his spine. He sat on his butt as he began to take big breaths.
After a while his body was recovered a little. He brought withered plants and incinerated Linda’s body and completely destroyed her head.
