Chapter 194: Greatly Reduced Numbers





Since White Eye could not attempt to invade a city, he was left with no choice but to survive hidden in the mountains.


If it were only his original human form, it would not have been difficult to get back in cities as there are many ways for him to sneak in and hide his identity. However, in cities where hidden Awakeneds were numerous, it was near impossible for White Eye to gather the necessary sacrifices for his skill.


This wasn’t only because White Eye was not strong enough. Cities were full of hidden Awakeneds, and countless pairs of eyes would immediately catch on to his acts once he chose to make a move.


Though most of them might not pose a threat to him, the information of his location alone was enough for White Eye to discard any thoughts of secretly operating in a city. Being in a city would merely be wishing for death, especially that he should have offended a lot of Awakeneds with several of his acts.


In addition, White Eye doesn’t have any allies other than Smiling Death. If he found himself in trouble in a city, no one would be capable of giving him some assistance. Knowing this, White Eye could only unwillingly operate in the mountains.


Even so, no Awakened would dare to underestimate the mountains in this region as not only it spans far and wide connecting multiple cities; there were also some dangerous terrains that one had to be wary of.


From the beginning, White Eye never encountered any problems while he stayed in this area. Working with Smiling Death, they traveled unhindered among the secluded villages in the surrounding area.


White Eye had benefited substantially from those operations, but from all the sacrifices he had collected and consumed, there was a clear lack of villages available. Another thing was each village had a shortage of numbers which gave him quite a headache.


From how things were going, even if he managed to raid all the villages, cleaning them all out, it would still not be enough to advance to the next Rank. If White Eye truly wanted to break through to the next Rank, the only way he could see it being possible was if he managed to grab a few Awakeneds.


Nevertheless, White Eye was still delighted with today’s gains. Looking around, the village that previously was full of life had now been razed to the ground, and broken down huts, and scattered bodies could be found everywhere.


The bats surrounding White Eye had long been greedily filling their bottomless bodies up with addicting blood.


Even though White Eye had a bountiful harvest this time, his bats couldn’t be contented with it, aggressively devouring everything they could see.


However, their fun didn’t last for long, blood-red light shined from the ground, displaying a circular array with White Eye in the middle.


The next instant, dark-red mist slowly floated out from the array, and it didn’t take long for it to touch the bats that were busy sucking blood from their catch.


As the bats’ were caught unaware, their movements turned sluggish, making it hard for them to flap their wings. Almost immediately, most bats tried to fly up in attempts to escape the frightening mist.


Shrilling noises filled the land as the bats one by one started to drop from the sky, losing their life while they fell.


The other bats followed as well. Intense pain assaulted them, with their movements being slowed and their bodies feeling heavy, they all started to drop, not having any chance of getting out of the array.


White Eye was forced to watch this in anger as he tried to lead the rest of his bats outside the circle of deadly poison. Unlike others, he instantly recognized what it was.


Although White Eye had been imprisoned for quite a long time, that doesn’t mean he had forgotten what items could be a threat to his life. Among all of them, this item was one of his most hated ones.


There simply isn’t anything White Eye could do against it but to only escape. Poison Scroll was usually harmless against other Awakeneds, which made it an unpopular choice when buying a Scroll.


A Poison Scroll was a Scroll that would release poison in a circular area, but it was a relatively weak poison meant to irritate Awakeneds. It would slightly slow their movements and make their bodies feel uncomfortable with the weak poison, but other than that, it was relatively harmless.


Since one would only need to get out of the area affected, Awakeneds doesn’t consider it as a threat. The weak poison would also disappear once the affected target got out of the range, which made it a lesser threat that no one takes seriously.


However, when used against ordinary people and creatures, the effects of it will be apparent. White Eye could only stare at his bats, failing to get out of the array, losing their life inside it.


With their movements slowed, the time required for them to get out was several folds longer. Normally, the bats only needed ten seconds to reach the edge of the array, but now it became thirty.


Adding the poison that filled the entire area of the array, the bats could only die as they tried to flee.


The poison, which had almost no effect on Awakeneds showed an entirely different outcome against the powerless bats.


As the poison occupied the space in the array, for the bats, it was as if they had to swim in poison for thirty seconds. For others, it might show a different effect, but for the bats, they could only give out one final cry before losing control over their bodies, plunging down the ground.


Seeing them fall like this, White Eye burned with anger, wishing to devour the one behind this.


The remaining number of his bats instantly became dangerously low. Luckily, White Eye still has the bats which were close to the end of the poisoned area and the white-eyed bats that weren’t much affected by the poison.


Max, who saw this, couldn’t hide his surprise. Compared to what he had done to decrease the bats’ numbers, this was definitely more effective.


From the remaining bats, only tens of them were able to get out, and most of them were the white-eyed ones. The Scroll definitely showed its effects against them.


He could only watch in amazement, thinking that he should have gone and got a few of those. Unfortunately, Max never thought that it would be this much effective.
