Chapter 534 Tracking

Deep in the forest surrounding the Lionheart Empire base, Lu Yu followed a hunter into the woods.

The hunter squatted on the ground, checking for clues.

Among Elizabeth’s knights, there were positions in charge of different matters, and hunters were just one of them.

!!

He squatted on the ground and checked the clues on the ground as he said, “Although I can see that you’re confident in yourself, I’ll be honest, I’ll just take it that you’re out here for fun.”

Lu Yu was puzzled and asked, “What does this mean? Do you think I can’t hunt the spirit deer down?”

“It’s not that we can’t, but it’s impossible. Our royal knights are all experienced hunters. How many years of hunting experience do you have?”

“You’re just an amateur, young man. Both of us can’t do it, so just forget about it.”

Different professions were worlds apart. Furthermore, Lu Yu’s age made him believe that this hunt would be impossible to complete.

Lu Yu sized him up and asked, “You don’t look that old, do you?”

“But my master is older and more experienced. I have inherited his experience, so even though I’m not much older than you, I’m more experienced than you in hunting!”

Seeing how confident he was, Lu Yu didn’t say much. The knight’s master must be an expert hunter in the Lionheart Empire.

“Don’t be so sure; I haven’t even started.”

The hunter laughed and stood up. He pointed around and said, “I’ll leave the rest to you. This is the place where I tracked the spirit deer previously.

“If you can catch it, all the spoils will be yours. We won’t share a single bit!”

He said it confidently. From his words, it seemed that he did not think Lu Yu could complete the hunt.

Lu Yu didn’t say anything and started to look around.

At that moment, he activated his Eye of the Dragon G.o.d and scanned his surroundings.

Soon, he saw a clue on the ground.

Lu Yu quickly walked over and squatted on the ground.

He carefully reached out his right hand and gently grabbed something from the ground with his fingers.

Seeing Lu Yu’s cautiousness, the hunter also came over and asked curiously, “You’ve found new clues so quickly?”

Lu Yu didn’t reply and grabbed a few fine hairs from a fallen leaf.

He picked up the fur, placed it on his palm, and carefully examined it.

These strands of fur were unique. They were dark green and even had a faint glow to them. When placed in the palm of one’s hand, one would feel a faint warmth from it.

“These furs are from the spirit deer. It should have gone in that direction.”

Lu Yu soon noticed the hoofprints below and confirmed the direction.

“Can you be sure that these few hairs belong to the spirit deer?”

The hunter asked in surprise, as he didn’t expect Lu Yu to discover such fine furs.

However, he doubted that the furs were from the spirit deer.

“Of course, I’m sure. Although I’ve never seen what a spirit deer looks like, I’m sure these few strands of fur are from the spirit deer.”

The hunter looked at him curiously and asked, “What makes you so sure?”

“Because I can feel the energy contained in these furs.”

Hearing this, the hunter curled his lips in disbelief. Lu Yu could sense so much with just a few strands of furs?

However, he didn’t say anything. After all, he was only a guide, and Lu Yu was the princess’ friend.

“Let’s continue in this direction. We’ll definitely find the spirit deer.”

Lu Yu took two steps forward, and the hunter leading the way followed him. The two men began to walk carefully through the forest.

After walking forward for a distance, Lu Yu opened his Eye of the Dragon G.o.d and saw a new clue.

Lu Yu quickly walked over, squatted down, and observed carefully.

He saw a chewed leaf with some saliva on it, wafting off a particular fragrance.

This fragrance was like the forest’s fresh air in the early morning.

“It seems that it’s not far ahead. It has just finished eating.”

Lu Yu commented as he continued to walk forward quickly.

The hunter followed behind Lu Yu and picked up the leaf that Lu Yu had just thrown down. He looked at it carefully and repeatedly but couldn’t see anything wrong with it. Naturally, he couldn’t smell the unique fragrance either.

Soon, Lu Yu pa.s.sed through a bush, and a small stream appeared before him.

The stream’s water flowed quickly, and one could see the bottom of the clear stream. Such a pristine and clear river was rare. At least, in the small city that Lu Yu grew up in, he could no longer encounter such clear water naturally.

Beside the stream, an elegant and strong buck was drinking the water with its head lowered.

The buck was dark green in color and emitted a faint glow. Its pair of antlers were of a beautiful emerald green color. Special patterns were carved on the antlers, making them look mysterious.

Lu Yu sized up the spirit deer from afar and said, “This is it. It seems like I’ve found it.”

The hunter behind Lu Yu was dumbfounded. He didn’t expect Lu Yu to find the spirit deer so quickly.

“Finding it is only the first step. You have to find a way to kill it without damaging its fur and horns. This is going to be difficult.”

“Furthermore, the spirit deer has many skills to escape, and it is difficult to catch up to it. Therefore, discovering the spirit deer is only the beginning of our hunt.”

Hearing his words, Lu Yu had a rough idea of what to do.

To ensure the integrity of the fur, it was best for Lu Yu’s attack to hit the head directly. This way, the fur on its entire body could be preserved. However, when attacking the head, he had to pay attention to the antlers and not damage them. Otherwise, the other precious material in the spirit would be gone.

It’s no wonder it was difficult to hunt a spirit deer. There are indeed many things to pay attention to.

The hunter squatting beside Lu Yu reminded him again, “When we attack later, it’s best to kill it in one blow. Otherwise, it will use its skill to escape from here quickly.”

Hearing his hint, Lu Yu nodded slightly and got serious.

Among Lu Yu’s several types of dragon claws, the only one that could accurately hit the enemy from a long distance was his Armor-Piercing Water Spear.

A sharp water spear could end the spirit deer’s life, but the key was accurately hitting its head.

Lu Yu’s other skills, be they from the Explosive Dragon Claw, Thunder Dragon Claw, Light Dragon Claw, or Dark Dragon Claw, weren’t accurate enough.

Soon, a ball of water began to form in Lu Yu’s palm and take the shape of a spear.

Swoos.h.!.+

The water spear shot out toward the spirit deer’s head.

Swis.h.!.+

Bang!

With a loud bang, the condensed water spear shot out and hit the spirit deer’s head!
