That's right, Sheyan's destination was Yorkshire and not the forbidden forest. This was because he was a person who was able to utilize his advantages to the maximum. The reason why Sheyan was able to do so well was because of his innate ability 'Endurance'. But when faced with magic or witchcraft, it was completely useless.
Therefore, even though the white and brown centaur's skin was the most expensive, they could be considered as a powerful warrior and magician. Furthermore, they would often befriend powerful magicians. Needless to say, just based on their proficiency in divination and astrology, Sheyan would be utterly helpless against them. Hence, without a doubt, Sheyan placed benefits at the back of his mind, directly choosing the black and grey centaurs as his targets. Most of the time, Sheyan would only consider safety and stability.
After arriving in Yorkshire, under the guidance of the little sprite, Sheyan gathered his spirits and headed towards the centaur activity area. He easily hunted down several small animals, and started a fire to roast them. After filling his stomach, he tried to see if he could lure the centaur out, but it ended in disappointment.
Fortunately, Sheyan's patience was superb. After pondering for a while, he allowed the house elf to lead the way, following the mountain terrain towards the valley. Centaurs were a type of animal, they definitely needed to drink water. As long as they followed the valley, it would naturally be easy to find water. As expected, Sheyan found clear hoof prints beside the small lake in the valley. But these hoof prints were connected together, one look and one could tell it was a large herd. Sheyan estimated that if he were to face a black and grey centaur one on one, he might have a chance of victory. But if he were to face two or more, he would definitely be defeated. What was more terrifying was that the centaur's speed was several times faster than him, he wouldn't even be able to escape!
But since he had decided to hunt centaurs, Sheyan had already made preparations. Since centaurs were social creatures and had human habits, then it was simple. He would directly deal with them the same way he dealt with humans. Under what circumstances would a person leave the group and venture out alone? Of course it was based on their daily habits and benefits, as long as they weren't willing to share their benefits with others. Linking to the items provided in the information, Sheyan unquestionably treated 'Purple Alfalfa' and 'Roasted Meat' as his breakthrough point.
Alfalfa was a type of pasture grass, horses, cows, pigs, geese and other domestic animals loved it. Most of the wild purple alfalfa in the nearby mountains should have been eaten by centaurs. But to find more from other places wasn't a difficult matter. For example, behind the family that Sheyan borrowed the fireplace was a large patch of purple alfalfa field. With the assistance of the house-elf, Sheyan effortlessly found a large bundle of alfalfa and sprayed some pesticide on it. Then, he sprinkled it around the water source. Then, together with the house-elf, he deliberately set up a camp that could accommodate two to three people. He also started a campfire and put it out with water. He also set up a few clumsy traps while he was at it. Then, he left the mountainous area and found a safe place to sleep again.
When Sheyan was doing these things, he was acting out his true colors. He knew he wasn't a professional, to centaurs who lived in the forest for a long time, such petty tricks would definitely be seen through. But this was precisely what he wanted to achieve.
To these centaurs who ruled over the forest, once they discovered a hunter had intruded and used such a clumsy method to plot against them, what would their reaction be? Even if they didn't fly into a rage, they would definitely be enraged and would definitely teach these fools a lesson. Moreover, Sheyan had already walked back and forth in this mountain for at least 2-3 times. To these centaurs, the traces he left behind would coincidentally become a troubling clue.
According to the habits of animals, they would usually only drink water in the morning or evening. Centaurs were also creatures that moved in groups, they probably followed this principle. Therefore, they were most likely to discover the poisonous grass in the morning when they went to drink water. They would then be enraged and search for it everywhere.
According to Sheyan's estimations and information, this violent search would last for roughly 3 hours. After that, many centaurs would lose their patience and return to their nests to rest and eat. However, there would still be a few more patient centaurs who would continue searching for half an hour before returning to their nests. This was similar to stirring up a hornet's nest. Even after half a day, there would still be a hornet circling around outside.
Sheyan's goal was to target this small group of patient centaurs!
The morning air was extremely fresh, a few beetles were circling around the branches and leaves. Even the birds were still tired and unwilling to chirp. Sheyan's entire body was covered with tree branches, but his disguise was still rather decent. After a good rest, he was brimming with energy. He stealthily crept towards the centaur's activity zone. His actions were extremely cautious, constantly moving forward under the cover of the trees, not forgetting to observe his surroundings.
Not long after entering the mountain, Sheyan discovered the distinct hoofprints of the centaurs on the damp ground. Knowing that his plan was a success, his heart was naturally filled with joy. The terrain here was not steep. Instead, it was dominated by hills and valleys that were more than a hundred meters high. The vegetation here was lush. Most of the trees here were beech trees, zebra trees, acacia trees, rubber trees, and so on. There were even more types of shrubs and flowers. Hydrangeas, convolvulus, bellflowers, snowdrop flowers, and chestnut flowers were all commonly seen.
Because news of the black and grey centaurs appearing and injuring humans had spread, it led to the lack of human activity. Thus, his field of vision was limited. If not for Sheyan's contestant physique, he would probably have a hard time walking. If not for the assistance of the house elf, his movements wouldn't be so quick and convenient.
However, that slut Infinite had spoken first. This house elf named 'Lagi' was originally meant to serve him, at most he would lend it to Sheyan for 3 hours. After that, for every additional hour, he would have to pay an additional £1 in usage fee! But in this unfamiliar environment, it was really difficult to move an inch without this house elf!
While pondering, Sheyan suddenly felt a chill on his left shoulder, as though a lump of ice was stuck to it! This feeling wasn't foreign to Sheyan, it was his perceptive sense warning him! He immediately lowered his shoulders, exerting strength in his legs as he leapt to the side. But his eyes had already caught sight of the forest. Amidst the leaves, a black shadow shot out like a bloodthirsty serpent. The leaves and flowers that touched it were all smashed into smithereens. Furthermore, the sharp tip of the shadow was piercing towards his body!
Black Centaur
Spear Toss!
Although Sheyan's agility wasn't high, his grappling ability had been raised to lvl 2. Furthermore, his perceptive sense gave him a 0.5 second advance warning! Thus, Sheyan was able to evade in time. He rolled on the ground and crawled back up. His head and clothes were stained with mud and leaves, looking extremely miserable.
But before Sheyan could even catch his breath, the leaves of the forest scattered wildly, disintegrating into powder. Another incomparably demonic wooden spear shot towards him. Sheyan could even smell an indescribable fishy stench from the tip of the spear! At this moment, he had already discerned that this wooden spear was extremely stable and accurate during its flight. The reason why it gave others the feeling of twisting and sliding was because, for some unknown reason, the temperature of the spear body was raised to a relatively high degree, to the extent that even the air was twisting and refracting phenomenon! This could no longer be described as a technique, but was in the realm of black magic.
Facing the second incomparably vicious spear toss, Sheyan was completely unable to evade in time. Instead, he was already prepared for the first attack. As he leapt up, he slapped his shoe with his palm. At present, his shoe was pierced with 5 short steel spikes, crisscrossing with each other. The sharp spikes were extremely sharp, and when used to kick, it would increase the lethality of his kicks. Furthermore, if he were to be ambushed, his palm would deal 5 points of damage. Instead, he would be able to activate his accessory 'Obsidian Fossil Anchor' passive ability to the maximum, ensuring that Sheyan would be able to face the enemy in his strongest state!
The spear whistled as it pierced towards his chest. Instead, Sheyan's hands had already produced a heavy black single-handed axe, blocking in front of his body! If Sheyan wasn't able to block the first spear in time, and wasn't able to enter a defensive state by the second spear, then he would've long perished in this realm!
When the wooden spear collided against the black hatchet, 7-8 sparks flew out. Black and viscous venom sprayed out, splattering onto Sheyan's exposed skin. Not only did it emit an indescribable fishy stench, it was also scorching hot. Moreover, the wooden spear contained a tremendous force, which even Sheyan's 13 points of Strength was unable to dissipate. The wooden spear swung forward, as it collided heavily against Sheyan's chest with the axe.
Sheyan was originally half kneeling on the ground, but after receiving such a heavy blow, his vision turned black. His palms were shockingly bleeding with blood, and he felt an intense pain in his chest, as though all the air was being squeezed out. Obviously, the enemy's strength was above Sheyan's. Fortunately, there wasn't a third spear tossing over, if not, he would've been gravely injured.
Ahead of him, a rustling sound could be heard from the thickets and shrubs. A massive black centaur leapt out from the side. The centaur's lower body was that of a robust and sturdy horse, but the horse's head had a sturdy human body. A long black mane sprouted from its back, extending downwards along its spine. It was like a blazing flame fluttering in the morning breeze. There were many decorations made of wood and vines hanging on the surface of its body. The most eye-catching one was the three white human skulls hanging on its waist. (To be continued.) If you like this work, I welcome you to donate your recommendation votes or monthly votes.
