Chronicles of Primordial Wars

CoPW 161 – Öldür

Çeviren: Joycelyn

It wasn’t very far from Chen Jia’s house to the central area. Ancak yakın sayılamaz. The Drumming tribe had a huge territory, as it was spread along the river. Therefore, the living areas were not packed together like in the Flaming Horns tribe.

Now that most of the tribe’s warriors had already gone to repel the intruders, there were only a few left in the internal area. The ones who were patrolling in search of dangers there may not be able to take everything into account.

Shao Xuan nehir kenarında yürüdü. The night was not completely dark due to the moonlight, which allowed him to keep an eye on his surroundings. But even so, it was not easy to identify the dangers hiding in the dark.

At the front, Qing Yi was leading the way, his pace not too fast and not too slow. He did not slow down because of the unknown dangers of the night and did not speed up either.

Nehir kenarında bir kan gölü oluştu. Laying on the water grass, there was a person with not a breath left in him. Judging by his clothing, he was from the Drumming tribe.

When Chen Jia and the rest hurried over to his side, they revealed a face filled with grief, but did not utter a single word. There would be similar incidents happening every year. However, not every year would they suffer such heavy losses.

Shao Xuan çevreyi gözlemledi. His many years of experience in hunting led him to believe there were people staring at them from somewhere. Ancak bunların tam yerini bilmiyordu. As long as the other party made even the slightest movement, Shao Xuan would be able to determine where they were.

Yalnızca Shao Xuan değil, eğer Alevli Boynuzlar kabilesinin savaşçılarından biri sık sık ava çıkıyorsa, yarıdan fazlası onların varlığını fark edebilirdi.

Since their exact location could not be accurately deduced, he just had change his methods.

Shao Xuan activated his body’s special innate skill. With this ability, he could clearly see through the surroundings trees. There were a few obvious skeletons showing up apart from the trees. Although he couldn’t clearly see them, there were still some body parts not covered by the trees.

Bu fazlasıyla yeterliydi.

Someone was hiding around thirty meters away from them. He was hidden very well, even to the point of holding his breath and blending in with the trees surrounding him. Kolay kolay bulunamadı.

Just like what Qing Yi had said, the ones that could silently sneak in were very good at hiding. The opponent was just like a hunter waiting for his prey to be caught in their trap. To achieve their goals, they could even stand all day and night at the same spot without eating, drinking, moving and sleeping. They would act in one fell swoop once there was a chance, risking their lives just to drag their enemies to their deaths.

The way the Martyr tribe did things had made the other tribes fear them. Once the Martyr tribe was involved, one would always go into high-alert state. Onlarla karşılaşmak her zaman trajik kavgalara yol açıyordu.

On the path from Chen Jia’s house, which wasn’t too far, Shao Xuan had already noticed quite a few corpses. They had already been killed quietly, without anyone knowing.

From around the muddy area, or perhaps from the water weeds near the river, there were still a few baby crocodiles calling. They were very unsettled, wishing eagerly for their parents to come back. However, they had to wait for the adults for at least one more day, when the river rose back up again.

"Hepiniz dikkatli olun." Shao Xuan did not point out the exact locations of their enemies. He could see that Qing Yi, who was walking at the very front, had already noticed. Sonuçta burası onların bölgesiydi. If the Martyr tribe’s warriors’ locations were revealed to the children, they could alert them and force them to come out immediately.

Chacha had not returned yet, and there were still five more children with them. Uygun değildi.

A man hiding behind a tree nearby had been moving closer. Qing Yi raised his hand, making the four kids behind him fall back. At the same time, Shao Xuan pulled Chen Jia, who was beside him, in another direction.
When Qing Yi was just about to take another step, a silhouette with cold ferocious eyes suddenly rushed out from the forest. His eyes were different from the Drumming tribe’s. They were filled with more of an expressionless coldness, while the Martyr tribe’s had a coldness that was addicted to death.

Bu oldukça tehlikeli bir kabileydi. Shao Xuan added them to his diplomatic blacklist. Alevli Boynuz kabilesinin bu tarafa başarıyla geçerek kabilelerinin doğduğu yere dönme zamanı geldiğinde, mutlaka Şehit kabilesine karşı hazırlık yapmaları gerekiyordu.

The guy who suddenly rushed out had a body full of fine lines packed together like scales. Tehlikeli bir aura yaydı ve Chen Jia ile diğer çocukların anında gerginleşmesine, sanki birisi saçlarını yoluyormuş gibi hissetmelerine neden oldu.

Ve düşmanın ortaya çıktığı anda Shao Xuan, Qing Yi'nin her iki kolunun da keskin ve hızlı bir şekilde kasıldığını ve bir ka ka sesi çıkardığını fark etti. In addition to his arms, the rest of his body suddenly increased in mass. He originally looked thinner compared to the other Drumming tribe members, but after this brief change, the loose beast skin leather tightened.

Mouth agape, four tiny pointy teeth extended out, two above, two below. Boğazından hafif gurultu sesleri geliyordu. When he looked up at the lurker, his eyes became two shiny spots. Perhaps due to the moonlight, those two spots were slightly brighter than expected.

Davetsiz misafir yaklaştığında Qing Yi de harekete geçti. With both legs stepping onto the ground, he was fast like lightning. His arm muscles bulging, each with great explosive force which was faintly pulsating. All that allowed him to strike in the shortest amount of time.

Here, there were no fancy skills, the battle was simple and direct. There were also no deceptive moves, there were only decisive attacks aiming to kill the opponent.

The invader held a sword made of animal bone and swung down. However, at that moment he realised his sword had been caught!

Qing Yi held on to the bone sword bare-handed, his other hand dropped down like a stone pillar, aiming towards the intruder’s head. At such a distance and with such a powerful attack, hitting straight in the middle of one’s head would always result in death.

İstilacı hızla kaçmaya çalıştı. Ancak, başlangıçta kılıcı tutan elin, avını sıkıca ısıran vahşi bir canavar gibi farkında olmadan kolunu kenetlediğini fark etti. Ancak kolunun kesilmesiyle kurtulabildi.

İstilacı bunu yapacak kadar cesurdu. Ama ne yazık ki zamanı dolmuştu.

Ka!

Kemik kırılma sesi duyuldu.

The invader’s eyes were filled with disbelief, but very quickly died down. Düşmeden önce vücudu bir süre seğirdi.

Qing Yi was holding the man with the smashed head and arms and threw him aside, like he was throwing out the trash. His feet burst with power and headed towards another direction. In that direction laid a bush that was not too big. When you looked at it, it didn’t seem like a good hiding place.

Qing Yi was like an accelerating sports car flashing by. He made it in front of the patch of bushes in the blink of an eye.

Sayısız çarpışmadan sonra bir yırtılma sesi geldi.

This was followed by the shadow behind the bushes being torn into two halves.

An extremely barbaric and bloody way, befitting of the Drumming tribe. Eğer Qing Yi'nin gözlerini şimdi görseydiniz, gözlerinin koyu kahverengi değil, huysuz bir insan gibi sarı-kahverengi olduğunu fark ederdiniz.

Qing Yi was the only one in the tribe to have two different eye colours. His eyes were usually dark brown, making you think he was harmless. However, once he went into battle, they would change into those of a foreign tyrant.

Qing Yi’s actions probably made the lurkers in the area believe they had already been found, so they rushed out one after another. Thinking that he was too hard to deal with, they put all their attention on Shao Xuan. Only by dealing with the few older ones would the children become manageable. They were really easy to handle and could be done in at any time.

Rakip, Drumming kabilesinin ilk patlamasından kaçmak için dışarı fırladığında sürekli konumunu değiştirerek hız avantajından yararlandı. He would have a much higher chance of success after dodging the first strike.

But Shao Xuan was not from the Drumming tribe, and his speed was not any slower than his opponent as well.
Shao Xuan beyaz dişli kılıcını çıkardı. Bu kılıç kabileden ayrıldıktan sonra temizlik töreninden geçmemişti ve beyaz gövdesi kırmızının farklı tonlarında kanla lekelenmiş halde kalmıştı. These were all from the time he was in the canoe, killing the river beasts. Even if he was very careful, he could not avoid killing.

A regular cleanse could not totally cleanse the sword. A sword that had not gone through the cleansing ceremony and had killed many would always emit a breathtaking, biting-cold aura from it. Chen Jia, who was closest to Shao Xuan, felt a shocking cool sensation in his forehead, which sent chills down his back. Titremeden edemedi.

Shao Xuan took in a big breath, his body bent down in position to face the incoming opponent; without hiding or dodging, welcoming him instead. Dişli kılıcı tutan elin omzu titredi, sonra tüm kolu sanki bir gaz pedalı takmış gibi hareket etti ve gelen rakibe saldırırken kılıcını bulanıklaştırdı.

Davulcu kabilesinin üyeleriyle karşılaştırıldığında Shao Xuan çok fazla şişmemişti ama kılıç darbesiyle yaydığı aura çok daha güçlüydü ve rakibine üstünlük sağlıyordu.

The sword left a blurry arc, only a slight sound was heard, and the first invader rushing out towards Shao Xuan had already had his neck sliced. Due to the force of the sword strike being extremely ferocious, the opponent’s entire head had almost come off.

Bir adamı öldürdükten sonra Shao Xuan durmadı. Like a leopard hunting its prey, he dodged another incoming strike. Just as the strike went past him, he used his sword to stab the opponent’s arm.

Bang!

Rakibin kılıcı Shao Xuan'a ulaşmadı. Instead, it went into the mud near Shao Xuan’s feet at full force.

Saldırı, patlayan küçük bir bomba gibiydi. It slammed down, splashing the muddy water in all directions, just like mud-coloured fireworks.

At the moment, Chen Jia was unable to see what was going on behind the explosion of muddy water. But after it dropped, the battle behind had already ended.

The intruder stood by the muddy waters, hand holding a black bone sword, still maintaining the position of hacking. The scale-like totem pattern vanished and his eyes stared with disbelief at his chest. Kanlı bir delik vardı. The red liquid was constantly flowing out, staining the muddy waters.

Shao Xuan was very calm the first time he killed a human. Bunun yeni bedeninin düşünme biçimini etkilemesinden mi yoksa bu dünyanın acımasız kurallarına alışmasından mı kaynaklandığını bilmiyordu. Or even maybe because he was naturally cold-blooded.

Shaking off the blood on his tooth sword, Shao Xuan observed his surroundings and saw that somebody was making his way over to him. He did not know if they were Martyr tribe members who broke through or the ones who were sneaking within the tribe.

No matter, this was not a place to stay for long. It was better to send the children off to the chief’s side as soon as possible.

From the sky came a shadow and Shao Xuan’s heart pulsed with happiness. Now, if they could send off these five children, everything else would become easier to handle.
