Chapter 262: Hunchback and Men-Eating Ant
The bald guy on Han’s team, whose name is Jacques, approached the two strange brothers and
said to them in a deep voice, “We are going to settle some personal business after a while, you’d
better be clever and stay out of this . I will leave a you a way out!”
The two brothers were called Big Mountain and Big River . Both were not their real names, but
that was what was recorded in the system .
After they heard the words from Jacques, the two brothers’ faces blanched with fear and even
started trembling, nodding over and over .
Even Jacques was a little bit surprised by how the two brothers were so easily intimidated .
Practicing discernment was essential to a killer .
Jacques observed the two brothers and judged that they were not pretending . They were just
like two paper tigers, notwithstanding his threat at all .
“Cowards . ” Jacques took a glance at the two brothers with disdain and whispered, “Just follow
us, do not go ahead no matter what . ”
“Alright, alright . A-as you wish . ” The two brothers hurriedly replied .
The bald Jacques went back to the middle of the team and said to the hunchback named Jensen,
“All set, we don’t have to worry about the two guys at the back . When the opportunity arises, we
will attack Han . First, we kill the two troublesome old men, and we get Han, then we kill the two
cowards at the back, and it is completely clear . ”
“When shall we get started?” Hunchback Jensen asked .
“Not at this place, it’s too windy and dusty . If Han gets away, it would be difficult for us to catch
him . We will start working on it when we leave the black sandstorm and arrive at the black pine
forest . Just wait for my order . ” Jacques said as he waved his black hands .
At the same time, the two brothers at the far end of the line smirked . The younger brother Big
River said, “I really didn’t expect that nine out of twelve would want to kill Han . How unlucky
can he be to end up in this situation like this?
The older brother Big Mountain sneered and said, “Well, we kill the ten people in front us as
soon as we get out of the black sandstorm, especially the damn bald guy . How come he dare to
threaten us? Goddamn it . ”
“Hey, it seems like we are getting out of the black sandstorm . ” The younger brother was
surprised for a moment and murmured . “How could it be so fast? Han is quite capable . ”
Big Mountain disagreed, “He could live a little bit longer if we were in the black sandstorm .
From now on, you wait for my signal, and we shall do it together . ”
Han was always careful, but no matter how careful he is, he would never realize that there were
so many people out there who wanted to kill him .
Shabu~
Han rushed out of the black sandstorm first, followed by the two elderlies, Lipton and Dini, and
then the rest of the team .

Han looked back . He saw the black hurricane was spinning, rolling up the black sand .
The black pine forest that appeared before Han was different from any pine trees on Earth . The
pine trees here were extremely tall, each was around a hundred meters in height, with a black
trunk and black pine needles . There was a thick layer of fallen pine needles on the ground, very
soft under Han’s feet .
Han did not stay, he continued to lead the team, proceeding ahead for around twenty
kilometers, leaving the black sandstorm far behind . They eventually found an open area and
stopped there .
“Let’s take a break here, you must also be tired . ” Han said to the two elderlies behind him .
The two warriors, even if they were already old, still had the abilities of a warrior, firm and
tenacious . They did not say a word even if they were tired .
The taller one Lipton said, “We don’t have to rest yet just for the two of us, we can still hold on
for a while . ”
Han opened his automatic pill case, handed over two pills to them and said in a deep voice,
“Don’t say anymore, someday I will also get old . On the other hand, I feel like the black pine
forest doesn’t seem right . We shall stop here for a while so I can choose the direction of our
next move . ”
What Han said was of course an excuse . At the first moment of them leaving the black
sandstorm, he had already finished investigating with his eye of darkness and a direction has
already been chosen . Now, it was just an excuse to let the two old man to take a break .
It seems like that Lipton and Dini had taken Han Lang’s words as true . Dini took out a bottle of
energy drink, when the bottle just touched on his lips, suddenly a hand came out violently and
knocked over his bottle .
“Why the hell are you drinking! Don’t stay here and keep on moving! If you two old bastards are
incapable of this just say it out loud, don’t be our burden!”
It was a blonde young man yelling . He had been pretty quiet since the start, why would he be so
unreasonable and break out at this moment?
Dini and Lipton fell into an awkward position . They were definitely old, not having the stamina
and fighting capability back when they were young, but they had been warriors for life, and
went through numerous deadly duels . Being humiliated by a young man at their older age was
very embarrassing .
‘Hum’
It was at that moment, Han made a sound of contempt in front of the team, pointed at the
infinite black pine forest and said, "Go in there if you can, or just shut up . ”
Han was in a bad mood . The blonde young man was stunned, and then he yelled like crazy,
“What do you mean? Do you think you are the boss of this team? Who the hell do you think you
are?”
The atmosphere suddenly changed .
Han rushed to that arrogant young man, not even waiting until he finished his words . His

fingers swept over the Lunar Mark , showing his god-class equipment Star-Strangling Boa .
Using such a deadly move, no one at the scene had ever anticipated that to happen .
The blonde young man did not either, his provocation was just a strategy, but Han’s
brandishing knife was no strategy, that was coming straight for the blonde young man’s life .
The blonde young man quickly jumped backwards, his reaction and evasion speed was near
perfect . Han missed his slash .
However, Han’s Star-Strangling Boa was a god-class piece of equipment .
Its slash came with a semilunar arc .
In a nutshell, the blade of the Star-Strangling Boa did not need to even touch the enemy to
secure a kill . The semilunar arc that came along was deadly .
‘Gengci’
The blonde young man’s head was suddenly cut off . It was only when his head was already
three meters high in the air then did the blood spurt out from his chopped-off neck .
If you ask what was the Path of Demon?
That was it!
Only if these guys met Han a few days ago, they would not have ended up like this .
He was unfortunate, extremely unfortunate; provoking Han after Han had understood the Path
of Demon .
What was Han worrying about the most at that moment?
It was that only after he understood the Path of Demon, did he find that he was not crazy and
evil enough!
So Han Lang reminded himself every moment, to be more ruthless, crazier and more evil .
To be evil, that is to kill!
Some people were determined to be good people . However, Han Lang was determined to be an
evil!
All the time, he disciplined himself by the standard of evil .
Whoever provokes shall die!
That was straight forward .
There were only six of the seven killers left and the fight had not even started . The rest of the
killers were all waiting for the bald Jacques’s order . However, even Jacques himself frowned,
things were completely out of his expectations . This Han was quite cruel .
“What do you mean?” Jacques frowned at Han and asked .
Shabu~
Han Lang replied with an eye full of maliciousness .
‘You want to avenge him?’
Jacques was startled, slightly shaking his head
Han walked a few steps ahead, picked up Dini’s water bottle from the ground, handed over to
him and said, “Whoever wants to leave, just leave, we are taking a break . ”
Dini and Lipton were too grateful to say anything, Han really helped them out . They just wished
that they were not too old to fight with Han instead of being taken care of .
Bald Jacques obviously did not anticipate this to happen . He clenched his teeth, wanting to
make a call to attack, but could not make up his mind .
At the moment, the hunchback turned his eyeballs and said, “I am also tired, let’s take a break . ”
It was until then did everyone sit down, Han was sitting together with the two old men, and the
six killers was sitting very close to each other . The big mountain and big river brothers were
sitting pretty far from the rest of the team, seeming to be afraid .
“Just wait, let me create an opportunity . ” Hunchback Jensen murmured .
The rest of the killers were shocked . All knocking their heads and thinking to themselves . “We
shouldn’t have let that frivolous blonde guy set the trap . Now not only did they let the
opportunity slip, the blonde guy even died from this . ”
In the current situation, it would be more desirable for the highest-ranked hunchback Jensen to
set up the trap . Jensen and Jacques were the strongest two of the bunch of killers .
Around two minutes later, the hunchback Jensen suddenly stood up, took out some strangesmelling
black little pills and shared among the others . He said, “I was told that there are some
kind of man-eating ants in this black pine forest, it will only take them few seconds to turn a
living man into bones . ”
I just happened to have some of the ant’s feces, taking them with us and the man-eating ants
will see us as their same kind so they wont attack us .
Everyone took the feces balls and placed them underneath their noses . It sure emitted some
strange smell .
Dini also said, “I have also heard of that before, in the black pine forest, no matter how strong of
a star beast you encounter, it is far from the dread brought by the man-eating ants . Those ants
are so tiny that we will not be able to see them with our bare eyes . As for the speed of gnawing,
they are more efficient than a meat grinder . If you have excess feces balls, give us some also . ”
Hunchback Jensen sneered, “Don’t you worry, we are a team, everyone will get their share . ”
Having said that, Jensen walked to Han, where the group of killers narrowed their eyes .
Killers paid great attention to start attacking secretly when the opponent was unprepared, so
they wished to find a chance . The blonde man suddenly challenging Han Lang was a trap set up
by them .
If it was as usual, just killing someone wouldn’t cause them so much trouble, killing Han Lang
when they found a chance was not so hard for these killers .
But the key was, the four major genetic beast clans wanted him to be captured alive .
That was the reason why the killers lead by the hunchback and the bald man were so cautious .
They had an opportunity that Han would never have thought of to capture him alive .
In the meantime, hunchback Jensen had already approached Han . His back had always been
hunched, at that moment it was even lower . The bulge-like bump on his back was pointing
right at Han Lang .
Suddenly, when Jensen was no farther than five meters from Han, Han suddenly twitched his
ears, and blocked Jensen with one arm, stopping the hunchback from approaching him .
Stop! Han Lang shouted .
At that moment, Jensen felt a wave of fear, raising the hair all over his body . “Did he see
through our trap? That is impossible, how could he?”
“Something was going on around here, we have to leave immediately . ” Han jumped up and said .
“But the pill?”
“Throw it to me, quick!”
Shabu~
Hunchback Jensen had no choice and threw the pill to Han Lang .
Once Han Lang has caught the pill, he slightly twisted the black pill with an extremely subtle
action using his fingers, and then put it away .
It was only after this that hunchback Jensen let out a long sigh of relief . He winked towards the
other killers stealthily, conveying a simple signal, “All set, you just wait and see!”

Alternate Worlds
This is actually a group of short stories I did some time ago. The first group are 3 stories, all starring the same Protagonist but with different foes and ways of how the stories play out. Past this I have other story lines that I have done this with and will likely use this heading to put them out there. - Note: The Book Picture is the location of the Portal the car went through. There are 4 such statues set across from each other and then two of the large pillars, set across the street from one another. New Story Line: Lost is about a man lost in a world that Used to have summoned hero's, ones where the mages who did the summonings did not close the pathways properly, so sometimes people from all across time, space, and dimension end up falling in to their world. Some become heroes, some 'Demon Lords' and some something else. I have 3 versions of this story which I will put here, one chapter a day. 2cd version was massively flawed, which I only realized while sharing it. As such I am skipping it and moving on to the 3rd version. The 3rd Story of Lost is about a man who mysteriously fell in to a world based on video games, complete with leveled zones, levels of skills, professions and so forth. Being from a world like ours, with the knowledge of these things, gives him a decided edge and better potential than normal. --------------------------------------- New story - New Life, Old Soul is the story of a man who used desperate experimental magic to grant himself a new life in a new world. This is an Iseki story with a single twist as no outside force dropped or summoned this soul to its new life. Come and see what sort of world and life this willing traveler of Realities unknown experiences. I will try and post once a day, though times may vary depending on my the wierdness that is my life. ^-^ ------------------------------ Cosmic Chaos A Void Maker tried to destroy several realities, by forcing their crystal shells in to each other. The AOs of those realms fought back the best they could, including a desperate play of opening random portals between the divergent universes and the void. Several things, peoples, and animals fell through these portals. In the grand scheme of things very little of this had long reaching consequences. However, Some of these universes gained new time lines from these events.This is a story of one such event, of one very lost traveler dropped in to a very different world than the one he came from. Tags: Isekai, Gender Change (Male to Female), Magic, Drama (lets face it most of my stories have a bit of this in them even when I don't tag them thus, though I don't know how 'Realistic' the characters are.) -------------------------------
