Affinity: Chaos Chapter 1164 Instant-Kill

Chapter 1164 Instant-Kill

Grey naturally knew the plans of the trio, but he felt they should get the picture since he had already made it clear to them that other than the mission, he wasn't going to involve himself in anything else. As long as whatever they had plans of doing was not in line with the mission he had in mind, then he was not interested. 

It didn't take long to track the place the treasure was going to be born, all they had to do was to go to the area with a higher concentration of Magical Beasts and they would be able to get the general knowledge of the place.

A few days pa.s.sed while they were waiting for the treasure to be born before the Three Headed Deer appeared. The one that showed its face was shockingly in Rank Eight. 

Grey wasn't stupid enough to try to fight the beast, he still had around three days before the deadline for the mission. As long as he was able to complete it, even if it was a day after the deadline, he should be able to maneuver past it. The Grand Elder was trying to be fair with his acts of trying to get Grey killed, so he would be able to deal with him being a day late. 

One of the trio couldn't help but ask, "There the beast is, why don't we take it down?" 

"You believe we are enough to take down a Rank Eight Magical Beast?" Grey took a glance at the young man. 

The young man nodded in reply to Grey's question. 

Grey took a peek at the others and saw their reactions, he chuckled internally and said, "The mission required a Rank Seven Magical Beast, not a Rank Eight one." 

The young man looked at Grey, a bit displeased by his words. He looked at the others and seeing their reaction, he knew he might have overestimated their capabilities. With a snort, he looked away. 

Grey couldn't help but sigh. 

'This is why I liked the old group, they already know what to do.' He said to Void.

'This guy wouldn't last long if left alone.' Void evaluated the young man who was trying to get them to attack the Three Headed Deer. Only a fool would believe people in the Mid stages of the Elemental Venerable Plane would think that only four people would be able to defeat a beast in the Eighth Rank. Even if all four of them had Grey's abilities, they would barely stand a chance against it. 

The group waited another day and Grey was slowly starting to feel like they might not be able to see a Three Headed Deer here, he was already having the thought of suggesting they leave, but he halted the thought and decided to wait till nightfall. If a Three Headed Deer doesn't appear in the night, he would leave the next morning. 

Later that night. 

Grey was watching most of the beasts coming into the area, he sent Void and the bunny leader to different positions since he wouldn't be able to get a complete view of all the beasts that were coming into the area. The trio that came with him were also stationed in different places. 

He was about to give up when one of the trio, the young man who was originally trying to get him to attack the Rank Eight Three Headed Deer appeared. 

"I saw one entering the area, it's in the Mid stages of Rank Seven, well within your abilities." He reported. 

"Alright." Grey called over the others, as well as Void and the bunny leader. 

They came up with a tactic to attack it. One has to know that this is an area completely filled with Magical Beasts, as long as the slightest ripples of a battle spread out, they would attract so many Magical Beasts that it would be difficult for them to escape, much less completing the mission. 

By the time they completed the plan, a few more minutes had gone by. Grey didn't trust the young man, so he decided to send Void ahead to check out if the beast was as the young man said. Sending Void ahead of them wasn't only to check if the beast was within their power, but to also set up some array points. 

Void was somewhat proficient in arrays, although he rarely tried it out, Grey occasionally teaches him a thing or two. All he had to do now was to set up the preliminary array for Grey. That way, once Grey appears, all he needed to do was to set up the main array in the middle and enclose this area from others. 

Grey soon got the word from Void that the young man's words were accurate and he had set up the array, awaiting their arrival. 

Void had no issues with fighting against the Three Headed Deer on his own, he was also in the Mid stages of Rank Seven, and he had a superior bloodline. His superior bloodline, however, is the reason he can't fight against it. Once the Rank Eight Magical Beasts in the area sense it, they would want to devour him.

His bloodline might be higher than theirs, and he might have some certain advantages over them, but he can't cover the sheer advantage they had over him when it came to their cultivation stage. 

Grey and the others appeared in the cave where the Three Headed Deer was residing, and the moment they appeared, Grey instantly made the last symbols, setting up the array. 

The symbol he created silently flew into the sky and merged with five other dim lights that had been positioned in different locations. 

The trio looked at Grey, amazed by his efficiency. They thought it would take a while before he completed the array, but he completed it almost immediately they arrived which came as a shock to them. 

"Get to work. It can't keep the ripples from the Rank Eight Three Headed Deer, it will only delay it. We have to take it down as soon as possible." Grey urged them when he saw them standing in the same place. 

They nodded and quickly surrounded the place. 

Grey was going to be the main attacker, he would also be the one that would enter the cave to fight against the Deer, the others would wait outside and attack when the Deer comes out of the cave. 

Inside the cave. 

The cave was quite large, and it was also quite deep. Grey rushed inside, Void and the bunny leader were by his side. He has already activated his dragon scales at this time. 

His body was giving off a faint golden glow, this was one of the new light element techniques he learned from those techniques. It helps with almost instant-healing him whenever he gets hurt. It was a good skill to have when fighting with the physical body. Against a Magical Beast, he would almost always want to use his physical strength to overpower it. 

After walking for a few minutes, Grey saw the Three Headed Deer lying on the ground, seemingly resting. 

Grey was a master at masking his aura, there was no way a Rank Seven Magical Beast would be able to sense him, except a select few. 

'A one shot sneak attack?' Void asked. 

Grey nodded, this was the plan. The reason he didn't take the others with him was because they might not be able to hide their aura as well as he could. 

'I'll use my bloodline to intimidate it, while you attack from behind.' Void said. 

Grey nodded and went to the side, just as he was about to attack, he saw a smaller Three Headed Deer. He systematically froze, unsure of what to do. 

This Three Headed Deer had a calf, if he were to kill it, it means he had to kill the little one as well. 

'I'll keep it for now, I'll think of what to do later.' He sighed to himself. 

This was his chance to complete the mission, he would not give it up for a small Deer, at most, he'll take it with him and give it to someone. 

Thinking about it, he felt it was the perfect Magical Beast to give the little he left with the triplet. Her brother was still in a coma. Since leaving, he hadn't been able to check up on them. 

Grey positioned himself behind the Deer. As if it sensed Grey, the Deer opened its eyes and was about to turn around when Void stood in front of it. 

Void's aura exploded out and the Deer froze, the smaller one pa.s.sed out from the pressure. 

The Deer was still trying to hold on when a large spear made of the s.p.a.ce element pierced through its head, killing it in an instant. 

The Deer didn't even have the time to react before it was killed by the duo's cooperation. 

….

Outside the cave. 

In another part of the forest. 

The Rank Eight Three Headed Deer seemed to sense something and opened its closed eyes, it looked in the direction Grey was located and its eyes turned cold.
