<h4>Chapter 506: A Group of Muncxes Fell from the Tree</h4>
Trantor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After the crowd smeared fresh honey, Pele hid along with the hill people. They hid and waited for a Muncx to take the bait. As a gust of wind blew over, the honey’s smelt spread far away, and a sweet fragrance lingered in the air.
Gurgle!
After a short while passed since the crowd hid, a crisp gurgling sound transmitted from the distance, and a small fat bear that wasn’t taller than half a meter appeared in front of the crowd. It was jumping and bouncing on the branches like a monkey, and it was endowed with high speed.
The little creature was looking around sneakily, and it used its nose to sniff around before it stuck out its tongue and licked the honey applied by the crowd on the tree trunk. Soon after, the little creature smacked its lips and jumped toward another tree. It licked the honey carefully before it jumped again toward another tree. It would never stay on a tree for a long time.
It seemed from the Muncx’s outward appearance that it was a stupid and clumsy bear, but as a matter of fact, it was more alert and vignt than Siberian Snow Rabbits.
When the crowd discerned that the Muncx started staying on every tree for a longer time, the crowd realized that they reached the crucial juncture, and they held their breaths so that they wouldn’t scare this swift little creature by mistake.
The forest was Muncx’s home, and as long as it managed to escape, even the swiftest hunters wouldn’t be able to overtake it, and their previous efforts would be wasted.
Gurgle!
After the small bear observed the surroundings for a while and didn’t find anything strange, it finally couldn’t resist the allure of honey any longer. It stuck out its tongue and started noisily licking the honey with gusto. The more it licked, the more energetic it became, and it seemed like a starved ghost that wished to swallow the whole tree trunk.
After a short while, the little creature cleanly licked the honey on the tree trunks and groaned several times before it jumped toward thest tree trunk. Its footsteps weren’t steady, and it was staggering as if it were drunk.
“This is honey distinctive to our tribe’s region. It’s made by bumblebees through gathering Indian Lettuce’s nectar. It has a tasty vor, but it’s quite strong, and if one drank too much of it, he would be confused and disoriented as if he got drunk.” When Pele saw Yang Ling observing the disoriented Muncx in confusion, he exined this to him in a low voice.
“This is why you are using this method to make the gluttonous Muncx fell off the trees, isn’t it so?” Upon hearing Pele’s exnation, Yang Ling looked at the drunk Muncx. He finally understood everything!
“That is right, it’s only through this can we capture the swift Muncx, and if we don’t do so, none will be able to overtake it due to its high speed,” Peleughed.
Burp!
After the Muncx cleanly licked the honey on the tree trunk, it let out a burp with satisfaction before it bounced around several times and jumped toward a small tree. It stroked its plump belly before itid on a branch and rxed with its eyes closed. The branch was bouncing up and down due to the little creature’s great weight, and the branch seemed like a swing among the wind.
The Muncx quickly started snoring, while it still smacked its lips and grounded its teeth from time to time. It didn’t detect the danger that would shortly befall it!
Tsk, tsk! After it ate its fill, it went to sleep. It was really enjoying itself!
Yang Ling observed the Muncx bouncing up and down in the air like a swing and chuckled softly. This beast had a round head and a plump body, and they both made it seem cuter. If it was domesticated and sold as a pet, it would surely be popr among young girls and noblewomen.
“The Muncx is fond of sleepingzily after eating to its fill. Lord Yuri, observe us.” After Pele waited for a while and discerned that the Muncx was really sound asleep, he got excited, and he talked with Yang Ling before he took out a fis. He led his few tribesmen and approached stealthily the small tree where the little creature stayed.
It wasn’t difficult for experienced hill people to find a Muncx in the boundless forest. But capturing it sessfully wasn’t so easy. Many times, after they set up half of the trap, it would be wrecked by other Magical Beasts.
The hill people didn’t expect that everything would go smoothly on this day, and they weren’t bothered by any other Magical Beasts. This was a golden opportunity bestowed by Heaven!
The overjoyed Pele sneaked toward the Muncx carefully, and the hill people gradually got closer to the Muncx. But when the crowd just assumed that they would seed, a hill person stepped on a branch by mistake and broke it. A cracking noise echoed out, and it alerted the sleeping Muncx.
The Muncx let out a strange cry and started jumping among big trees before it disappeared quickly among them. Even though the Muncx was still staggering because it was intoxicated, it still had a high speed.
They worked hard in vain!
When Pele and others saw the Muncx leaving far away, they were quite frustrated. They didn’t expect that their efforts would be wasted at thest moment. As long as they shook the small tree strongly, they would have been able to throw the Muncx into the fis. But, it had already escaped quickly after it was awoken, and the crowd wasn’t able to intercept it.
“Lord Yuri, I’m sorry. Let’s change the location and try again.” Pele felt quite embarrassed. He wanted to show his skill in front of Yang Ling, yet everything was ruined at thest moment.
“It’s fine, let’s go.” Yang Ling looked at the embarrassed Pele whose face was flushed and smiled.
After the crowd ran around for two hours, they managed again to find tracks of a Muncx. The excrement on the ground demonstrated that a group of Muncxes was likely present in the vicinity, and the crowd was overjoyed by this discovery.
“Pele, let me deal with it this time. I have a Magical Spell that can increase the effects of the honey, and it will quickly intoxicate the Muncxes that will take the bate. I can assure you that none will get to escape it.” After Yang Ling got to know that a group of Muncxes was in the vicinity, he decided not to let this chance slip by.
As Yang Ling spoke, he took the honey in Pele’s hand and quickly took out the strong colorless and odorless anesthetic made by Alice from his Spatial Ring while none was paying attention to him, and he applied it into the tree trunks along with the honey.
Even if a Twin-legged Flying Dragon consumed this strong anesthetic, it wouldn’t be able to withstand it, and it wouldn’t be able to stand again. Yang Ling didn’t believe that a little Muncx was fiercer than a flying dragon.
“Lord Yuri, is it the legendary ck magic?” Pele was quite confused. He had never heard about any spell that could strengthen the intoxication effects of the honey, but when he looked at Yang Ling’s ck robe, he got an idea and recalled the legendary and mysterious ck magic.
“Pele, you can set your mind at ease. This time, We will surely not suffer any issues.” Yang Ling smiled. He didn’t admit it, yet he also didn’t deny it, while he also set up a Restriction Spell in the vicinity so that wary Muncxes wouldn’t get to escape again.
“Lord, since you have undertaken this task personally, we will surely not run into any issues.” When Pele noticed that Yang Ling didn’t deny his guess, and he detected faint mysterious Energy Ripples in the air, he became surer of his idea, and he led his tribesmen to hide while he still observed everything carefully. He was full of expectations for Yang Ling’s ck magic.
Yang Ling smeared here all honey he had to attract Muncxes, and an intense sweet fragrance permeated the air. After a short while, more than ten Muncxes followed the smelt and rushed over. The Muncxes took the same actions as the previous little creature and run around in circles here for a while. After they verified that nothing strange was here, they felt relieved, and they started licking the honey on the trees. Soon after, the Muncxes started sleeping on the branches and snoring loudly.
“Lord Yuri, can we start taking actions?” When Pele saw that the Muncxes started sleeping loudly one after the other, he questioned Yang Ling in a low voice.
“It’s fine, observe me.” Yang Ling spoke and swaggered in front of the nervous crowd’s gazes. Yang Ling started shaking the trees strongly, and after he had done so, the Muncxes started falling down on the ground like rain, and they couldn’t stand up again even after struggling on the ground for a long time.
Was it fine like so?
Upon seeing this, the crowd was dumbstruck. When they saw Yang Ling swaggering, they assumed that their efforts would be wasted again, and they didn’t expect that the sixteen Muncxes wouldn’t escape it. It was unbelievable!
A spellcaster was really a spellcaster, and he was really different than the masses.
The crowd, unaware of the truth, admired Yang Ling’s magic. They had consumed arge amount of precious honey and racked their brains for schemes, yet they couldn’t capture even one Muncx. As for Yang Ling, he unexpectedly managed to capture sixteen Muncxes in one try. The crowd was won over by Yang Ling!
“Pele, take those two Muncxes and bear my name in mind. It’s Yuri. If you suffer any trouble one day, you can go to the Magical Beast Territory’s Hunter Guild and seek the beast tamer Bolso. He will inform you where I am.” Yang Ling threw two Muncxes at the front and moved the remaining Muncxes into the Wizard Pagoda’s dimension before he left nimbly.
A dozen and more Muncxes were a great figure to the hill people, and if they got just a single Muncx, they would be overjoyed. But a dozen and more weren’t worth mentioning to Yang Ling’s Magical Beast Army, and they wouldn’t y an important role on the battlefield.
Yang Ling should either not do this or carry out everything to the end. He wouldn’t leave even a single Muncx in the forest, and he would collect all of them.
After Yang Ling understood the Muncxes’ traits and life habits, he didn’t have to undertake this task with the hill people, and he could just depend upon his skill to finish it alone. Yang Ling didn’t have to depend upon any tools to capture the Muncxes.
In the hill people’s eyes, the Muncxes were quick and swift, but as a matter of fact, they were at best just as swift as unicorns, and even if they were swifter by several folds than this, they still wouldn’t manage to escape from a Soul Great Wizard that advanced into God-Level.
“Yuri, the Hunter Guild’s Yuri. What is his lordship’s status?” Pele observed Yang Ling that was as fast as lightning that had already left far away. He got lost in his thoughts!
Even though Yang Ling had said that he was just an ordinary spellcaster, Pele still felt that Yang Ling’s status wasn’t so simple. Yang Ling had appeared in the depths of the night in the Wizard Pagoda and easily neutralized the deadly snake poison in Pele’s body before he captured a dozen and more Muncxes. Everything demonstrated Yang Ling’s great power!
“Our tribe may have gotten acquainted with a peerless expert. When we go to sell the tribe’s local products next time, we should look for a chance to go to the Magical Beast Territory and see whether we can meet Lord Yuri again.” After Pele instructed his tribesmen to tie the two Muncxes, he quickly made up his mind.
Powerhouses were venerated in Tailun Continent, and getting the support of a peerless expert would be greatly beneficial to him and his tribe.
