Chapter 112

As Ming Hu continued to walk inward, hunting the gargoyle soldiers, he frowned as another one came into view.
‘It’s getting shorter and shorter.
Ming Hu thought as he looked at the stone soldiers that came into view. The further in he went, the less distance there was between the stone soldiers guarding the path. At first, the distance was about 300 meters, but now it was only about 100 meters. Perhaps the next group of gargoyles would be visible from where he was now.
“Huh?
Stop
As Ming Hu approached to hunt down the stone soldier, he sensed something was wrong and stopped in his tracks.
“…what is it?
Ming Hu shook his head and looked at the gargoyle soldier. The stone soldier in front of him was different from the ones he had seen before. For one thing, it was larger and more finely carved.
“Intermediate?
The different-looking gargoyle seemed to be a mid-level gargoyle, not a low-level gargoyle. No, it was definitely a mid-level gargoyle. Ming Hu began to walk toward the gargoyle soldier.
“Are you going to take a bow this time?
The number of gargoyle soldiers totaled three, two of them with swords and one with a bow. He was not a low ranking soldier, so he was unlikely to be wielding a bow. When Ming Hu was in range, the gargoyle with the sword started running toward him, and Ming Hu saw the gargoyle pulling a bowstring toward him.
‘Now you’re shooting arrows.’
Ming Hu quickly stepped to the side as he watched the arrow fly toward him. Soon, the arrow struck where Ming Hu was standing. Ming Hu looked at the arrow embedded deep in the ground, then turned and began to run toward the stone soldier running toward him.
