New Grounds (3)

The North-Eastern Canyons were such a popular destination was because of the presence of these [Stone-Ram]. These were solitary creatures that only ever interacted when mating with each other. This meant an experienced Hunter team could use a combination of traps and skill to defeat one with some difficulty, however, it was worth the effort when considering the value of their materials. Everything from their hides to their horns was in high demand by the craftsmen and alchemists of Huang City.

Kai figured that this new hunting ground would allow his disciples to progress quickly without much danger of being overrun by the beasts. Plus, the profits and contribution points earned from here were much better than in the Eastern swamp, making the decision an easy one for him to make.

When the group had finally found another [Stone-Ram], it was already being attacked by a Hunter group. Kai didn't recognize them, but they wore high-quality armor and were well coordinated.
