Grandmaster Hunter of Age of Mythology

Chapter 1: Bravery Mission and Magician Graduation Trial

The Harvest Festival is approaching. Grandpa Nick and Kashin ride on their wolves and set out on a journey with sufficient supplies. They ride non-stop all the way and cross three towering mountains, just to capture a ferocious bear and use it as a trophy to show their bravery and shine at the Harvest Festival.

The grandfather and grandson know all the prey in this area by heart!

It is as if they are the real masters of this vast land, possessing absolute control and voice.

The gifts of nature are endless. We should only take the prey that is necessary for life, and use them to exchange for some necessities of life. We should try our best to let the animals in the mountains reproduce freely, so that hunters can always have no worries about food and clothing, and live a sweet and nourishing life...

"Hey, little guy, the big monster is still in the cave, just wait here, and hope it can give birth to cubs smoothly. We only need the male bear, so don't kill it indiscriminately, so that we can always get the inner elixir and bear skin!" The two hid three hundred meters away, and Grandpa Nick once again taught Kashen the hunter wisdom and thinking method.

"I understand, Grandpa. When my grandson grows up, he will have to kill the king of this mountain himself to prove himself. Just watch over him for me!"

"Haha, that's right. The archery that Grandpa taught you is the orthodox method of the Empire Scouts. As for the fighting spirit, it's a little bit lacking. The top secrets are monopolized by the nobles. Grandpa is just a scout and hasn't had time to be knighted, so there's no way for him to learn the authentic secrets. But Grandpa has improved it himself over the years, and the fighting spirit method he's practicing now is much more powerful than before, so just make do with it for now!"

"I'm just a little hunter in the mountains. Hunting is enough for me. I don't usually need to use fighting spirit. What my grandfather taught me must be the best! This time, grandpa didn't allow me to use traps or archery. He insisted that I fight the violent bear with my iron fists. Did he want to test my fighting spirit?"

"Haha, it's not just that. A complete bear skin can be worth ten or thirty gold coins! This violent bear is a magical beast, and its leather is super tough, so it is so valuable. As for whether there is an inner elixir, I'm really looking forward to it. Maybe I can exchange it for some good things for you. When I settled here, this violent bear was already an adult. It took me half an hour to defeat it. It has survived until now, so it must be very powerful. You have to be careful..."

In their spare time, the grandfather and grandson chatted and laughed happily, not taking the violent bear seriously at all.

Kashin had been a good-looking boy with a thin waist and narrow back since he was young, and his bones were very strong, so Grandpa Nick saw at a glance that he was a good material for being a scout.

There was a plague in the village, but this guy actually survived as if he had luck. He was always cold and had seen everything, but he just fell in love with Kashen. After more than ten years of careful training, Kashen is now a genuine knight, and even if he joins the army, he will be the elite among the elite!

The old man narrowed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and then sniffed the air around him. At the same time, the young man standing next to him seemed to have a telepathic connection and blurted out: "A stranger is coming!"

The old man smiled slightly and said, "Haha! I didn't expect this brat to have such a keen sense of smell. They are probably about two miles away from us. Could it be that the monsters here have attracted their attention?"

The young man frowned, carefully distinguishing the smell coming from the wind, and muttered to himself: "Hmm... I smell a very nice fragrance, and a faint smell of alcohol. Grandpa, do you think they are people from the city? We never smell this kind of fragrance here!"

The old man nodded in agreement. "Indeed, it seems that these strangers are not simple. It's a pity that I couldn't bring Kashin with me to the city to broaden his horizons! But then again, if someone dares to snatch the prey you have worked so hard to catch, as a man, what would you do?"

The young man looked determined and answered without hesitation: "Grandpa, this is the precious prey I will use to marry my beloved girl. Anyone who wants to snatch it away must accept my challenge! In this land, only through a real duel can we decide who is the final winner and determine to whom this prey belongs..."

The old man was very satisfied. He thought that was how young people should be. His fearless eyes were just like those of his former superiors, who bravely faced powerful enemies.

As for whether the other party is tough or not, we have to act according to the situation. These city people came here to hunt because they have nothing to do after eating. At least they should be taught a lesson or two.

"Take your hunting bow, go and drive them away, act according to the situation, grandpa is watching you all here... If you lose, you will be punished to practice water combat skills this winter!"

"Ah! Practicing water battles in winter, doesn't that cost lives? No! Grandpa, change something else!"

"Haha, they seem to have stopped. I smell the fragrance of liquor. They should be taking a short break to eat some food and prepare for hunting. You go and get some of their expensive liquor and cheese."

The boy disappeared in a flash. Their sense of smell was the result of years of training. It was true that they were city people. They had no knowledge of hunting at all. Bringing these things into places where wild beasts roamed was simply courting death.

Powerful animals can also smell it, and prey either flee or chase them by the smell. This place is full of monsters, and it is difficult to survive if you are lower than the first level of a knight...

Kashin's sharp eyes quickly caught a scene not far ahead: three men and two women were sitting on the ground, with animal skins and blankets under the shade of dense trees. They were enjoying the food and chewing it. One of the knights was busy feeding six huge, shaggy wolves with meat, which was obviously from wild goats that had just been captured...

Kashin quickly took out a small piece of parchment from his pocket, picked up a feather pen, and wrote a few words on it with difficulty and irregularity. Then, he tied the parchment tightly to the arrowhead, pulled the bow hard, aimed at the target, and shot the arrow without hesitation...

There was a sharp sound of "whoosh" as the arrow flew away like lightning, and with a strong impact force, it firmly nailed on the tree trunk not far from them. The arrowhead was deeply embedded in the tree trunk, and the feathers at the tail of the arrow kept trembling due to the violent vibration, as if showing everyone Kashin's extraordinary strength and accuracy.

At this moment, the knight who had been alert all the time, with his excellent reaction ability, immediately realized that he might be attacked by the enemy. He shouted loudly, reminding his companions to pay attention to the danger and quickly find cover. Although it was finally confirmed to be a false alarm, everyone hid behind a nearby tree in an instant, just in case. At this moment, everyone was fully focused, ready to fight at any time.

One knight was holding an expensive birch bow and staring at the direction where Kashin was shooting arrows. The other two knights were holding shields to protect the two young girls.

"Wolf, go check out the arrow..., Hodel, protect the lady and the maid."

"Yes, head!".

Wolf's body was as fast as lightning, and his movements were extremely swift! He ran as fast as a nimble cheetah, as if the wind was blowing under his feet. Then, he quickly reached out and pulled out the arrow behind him, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, locking onto the target tightly.

In a flash, before the enemy could react, Wolf suddenly rolled sideways and disappeared in an instant. He cleverly used the surrounding environment as a cover to hide himself without a trace. The whole process was smooth and there was no delay at all. It was obviously a superb skill that had been honed through countless actual combat.

At this time, he stood in the distance and silently observed this scene, with a trace of contempt and disdain on his face. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and murmured softly: "Humph, these cowards, even if they use such means, what can they do? When they really start fighting, these tricks are of no use at all. This young master hopes that they can take a detour and not ruin my beautiful wedding. After all, compared with those swift hares, their speed is really too slow..." Between his words, he revealed an absolute confidence in his own strength and contempt for his opponents.

After reading the crooked words on the sheepskin, Wolf said: "Damn, we are threatened by wild hunters in the countryside. We can't go any further because it is their hunting ground..."

The one who is respected as the leader is as strong as an ox. He is a mercenary and only wants to complete the mission. He will definitely not rashly make enemies with others. A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake.

"Okay, let's go somewhere else. There's no need to make enemies with another group of people. They have no ill intentions. Dear employer, please see..."

While talking, I asked the employer behind the tree. She was a noble lady, wearing a green jungle dress, masked and holding a magic wand, and was a student of the magic academy in the city.

The project of her trial was a magic academy mission, which was to capture or kill an adult level one magical beast, and the approximate coordinates were nearby.
