Chapter 634 - 122: Back to the Ancient Dream (14)
Carefully avoiding the orc sentinels, Lu Hong continuously made his way towards the Hunting Ground.
The closer he got to the Hunting Ground, the fewer traces of demon beasts there were, nearly all of them had been captured by the Hunting Ground.
Relying on demon beasts to grind for experience was a decision that Lu Hong had considered for a long time. On one hand, lower-level demon beasts were easier to kill because, except for the special mutant bloodlines, none of the lower-level demon beasts could awaken their Bloodline Power and activate their race’s special abilities, making them easier to kill.
Only at level six did the strength of demon beasts significantly diverge. Once reaching level six, demon beasts could unlock their own Bloodline Power, and their talents and strength would be greatly enhanced. By then, a single level six demon beast would not be something that one or two of the same level professions could contend with.
Another reason for hunting lower-level demon beasts was that Lu Hong was not confident in delivering fatal blows to orcs. Weapons were the major limitation; without a sharp weapon, Lu Hong couldn’t even break through the enemy’s armor, and his iron sword didn’t have enough weight to kill an opponent with crude force.
Overall, slaying demon beasts was currently the most efficient activity for Lu Hong, but if he encountered any isolated orc scouts, he wouldn’t mind taking them down as well.
After approximately half a day’s journey, Lu Hong finally arrived at the Hunting Ground.
The Hunting Ground owned by Leicester was vast. Besides a regular entrance, the Hunting Ground was enveloped by a mysterious force that emitted a strong deterrent aura, preventing any demon beast from approaching. Additionally, Leicester’s guards patrolled the perimeter from time to time to ensure everything was normal.
But this deterrent aura was ineffective against humans or, more precisely, ineffective against anything but demon beasts.
You would ask why Leicester did not guard against humans...
To the orcs, what difference was there between humans entering the Hunting Ground and the demon beasts waiting to be hunted?
