Chapter 165: Someone Wants To Buy Your Life

It could only be said that this group of Violent Crocodiles encountering Lugh was their misfortune.

After Lugh rested, he continued to look for Violent Crocodiles along the Suiyang River.

In addition to the Violent Crocodiles that loved to sunbathe on the sand beside the river, they would generally look for prey in the Suiyang River.

After about 10 minutes, Lugh found a few Violent Crocodiles.

These Violent Crocodiles were all easily killed by Lugh.

It had been a long time since Lugh had such a carefree killing experience.

In the blink of an eye, it was evening.

After Lugh killed one of the Violent Crocodiles, Lugh took out his dagger and was about to dig for the crystal core when he suddenly heard a gunshot!

“Bang!”

He only felt a pain on his forehead, as if someone was smashing a stone on his head.

He reached out and touched his forehead, as if there was something stuck in it.

When he pulled it out, he saw that it was a yellow bullet!

There were also red blood stains on the tip of the bullet.

Gun!

Bullet!

Someone was shooting at him!

No matter how slow Lugh was, he was still able to react!

Lugh suddenly raised his head and looked at the bushes on the mountain in the distance.

After breaking through to Bronze-Grade Beast Master, his physical fitness had improved greatly.

He saw a few vague figures in the bushes, as well as a pitch-black energy crystal gun!

A figure picked up the energy gun and quickly disappeared into the bushes with the group of people…

“Stormhawk!” The Stormhawk swooped down. Lugh jumped on its back and pointed in the direction the group of people had fled, shouting angrily, “Chase them!”

At that moment, Lugh’s heart was filled with killing intent.

Just a moment ago, he had almost been killed!

Just thinking about it made Lugh feel a lingering fear.

Fortunately, he had listened to Shan Yue’s suggestion.

Fortunately, the Berserk Bear had the talent of ‘Immortal Body’.

Otherwise, he would have died today!

The opponent’s gun technique was extremely good. One shot had hit his head!

Lugh had never caused trouble. After coming to this world, he had always tried to get along with people.

But Lugh still hadn’t expected that someone would want to kill him for no reason!

Shan Yue had warned him before, but he hadn’t paid much attention to it back then.

Now, he had finally seen it for himself.

In the forest, the gunman who had shot Lugh in the back picked up his energy crystal gun and ran into the forest behind him.

“Old Mu, why did you run away?” The team leader behind him, Beast Master Ah Tongjin, asked, “Didn’t you kill the kid on the other side? If you didn’t kill him with one shot, you can shoot him again! That kid is from the military. Since we shot him, we must kill him!”

That’s right. This group of people was actually motivated by money.

This morning, they had noticed Lugh.

They discovered that Lugh’s hunting speed of the Violent Crocodiles was terrifying to the extreme.

They thought that Lugh might have more than twenty Bronze-Grade beast essence crystals, or even more!

Thus, they had a devious thought.

As long as they could kill Lugh in the dark, then all of Lugh’s essence crystals would belong to them.

Killing Fierce Beasts was so dangerous!

How could it be easier than killing people and stealing goods?

Not only had they killed ordinary Beast Masters, they had also killed military Beast Masters.

As long as the benefits were enough, there was nothing they didn’t dare to do.

They had also noticed Lugh’s Stormhawk, but they were very cunning. They knew that most eagle Divine Beasts had excellent vision, so they didn’t dare to approach it.

They discovered that Lugh was traveling downstream along the Suiyang River, so they followed this pattern and went ahead to ambush him downstream.

In the end!

He really got ambushed!

Holding his beloved energy crystal gun, Elder Mu said without turning his head, “My energy crystal gun hit him!”

Ah Tongjin said happily, “I just know that Elder Mu’s marksmanship is good, and you’ve never failed once… But why do we have to leave?”

“I did hit him in the head, but my bullets can’t break through that kid’s defense!” Elder Mu said snappily. “If I don’t leave, why would I wait for the other party to treat me to a meal?”

“That can’t be! That kid is only a Bronze-Grade Beast Master. How could he possibly defend against our special bullets?”

“I saw it with my own eyes!” Elder Mu said as he pointed at his own eyes while fleeing nimbly through the forest, “My bullets only caused him to bleed. That kid must still have a pet beast that’s extremely good at defense hidden on him… This is the first time I’ve met a Bronze-Grade Beast Master who can take my bullets head-on in all these years!”

“That kid is definitely a Bronze-Grade Beast Master. I’m sure of it, but that kid’s eagle pet is already so powerful. I didn’t expect him to have a pet with even stronger defense hidden on him!” Ah Tongjin said jealously, “It’s true that we’re not suited to fight him. The attacks of the Fierce Beasts in my hands can’t match up to the energy crystal gun in your hands!”

“Brothers, run faster! We’ll head straight back to the camp!”

As soon as Ah Tongjin’s words left his mouth, something unexpected happened.

The team of five suddenly heard the cry of an eagle.

Immediately after, countless wind blades streaked past, slicing through the towering trees around them.

Out of the team of five, two ordinary people were killed by the wind blades, while one ordinary person was crushed to death by the fallen tree trunk.

As a Beast Master, Ah Tongjin’s reaction was very fast, and he hid in the mountain rock.

The gunman was quite skilled. Although his reaction was one step slower than Ah Tongjin’s, the chain wind blades weren’t aimed at him to begin with, and he barely managed to survive!

Lugh stood on the back of the Stormhawk, staring at the two survivors below. He asked angrily, “Tell me, why are you shooting at me?”

Ah Tongjin and Elder Mu looked at each other and exchanged a look.

Elder Mu, who was holding the crystal gun, raised his head and said, “Someone gave us a reward. He said he wants to buy your life!”

“Who?”

Hearing Elder Mu’s answer, Lugh became even angrier.

He wanted to know who was targeting him behind his back!

“We don’t know the person who gave us the reward. He only gave us a deposit of ten Silver-Grade beast essence crystals first. He said that after the deed is done, he will give us the reward of ten Gold-Grade beast essence crystals!”

“You don’t know him? Then what’s the use of you?”

Lugh started to search his mind for his enemies who might have hired him to kill him…

Elder Mu shouted loudly, “We don’t know him, but they’ve seen his face. If we bump into him again, we’ll definitely recognize him!”

Hearing this, Lugh narrowed his eyes. “Did he tell you that I would appear here?”

Ah Tongjin quickly nodded and replied, “Yes, yes, yes!”

Lugh started to sneer in his heart. He began to suspect that the two of them were lying.

“Do you know my name?”

“Since the other party hired you to kill me, you must have my photo in your hands, right?”

“Can you show me the photo or portrait?”

Ah Tongjin looked at Elder Mu with a pleading gaze.

However, he realized that Elder Mu’s eyes were also filled with despair!

Elder Mu knew that their little trick had been completely seen through by the enemy!
