Chapter 140

****

Swann was wandering around the Island with his Gun as he saw a herd of Blue horses that was extremely beautiful in the forest . They were fully light blue in color . They had long legs and small protruding fins on both sides which made them seem like completely different creatures from a different world, they were quite bigger than the best breed of horses currently available, about 1 . 5 times in size . Swann was quite fascinated as he saw them and decided to follow them in the wood, He thought and followed, "What are these creatures? Are they really horses? They seem like heavenly creatures . "

"Argh . " Swann frustratingly shot a small red snake that seemed quite dangerous as he was following the horses .

Hearing the gunshot, The herd was quite bewildered by the sound and ran into the woods sensing danger in the surrounding . Running into the woods they came near a river, however, they kept on moving forward to cross the river without waiting . Meanwhile, Swann was following them continuously and saw them running with bewilderment,

Looking at the scene he was quite shocked and thought, 'Huh? How are they able to swim in the river with such a big body and that too at the same speed when they were on the ground? What sort of fuckery is this? I think something is fishy . I guess I can only see them later on as I can't cross the river . I wish I could have gotten one of those horses at least . '

Looking at them disappearing into the other side of the river, He thought, "They can make up as good mounts for us in wars or transportation . I should report this to Admiral Blake . I hope they won't be upset at me for sneaking out of the camp . "

Judd meanwhile was roaming on the island as he spotted Swann wandering deep into the woods, He called him as soon as he spotted him, "Hey what are you doing here brat? Shouldn't you be in the camp? And why aren't you with your mates and roaming alone in these woods? You think you are now a man just because you can kill a hydra? We were the same as you in the past and because of it, we suffered a lot on this island . We paid the mistakes of our stupidity with our lives . I too was saved because my captain sacrificed his life to save all of us back then . You are the first one to hear this from my mouth . "

As soon as he said about the past event to Swann, he regretted it and thought, 'Damn, me and my big mouth, always muttering unnecessary things . '

Swann ignored the later part and asked Judd, "Aren't you being a hypocrite, captain Judd? You too are roaming alone on this island full of beasts and lecturing me about roaming alone . " .

Swann continued proudly as he showed his new guns to Judd, "And as for my Safety, I already have the guns to protect myself . I already killed 2 beasts on my way . Look at this red snake . "

Judd was startled a bit but quickly counter questioned him, "What would you do when you run out of bullets to face the beasts? In my Case, look, I could fight them with my swords and knives but you would be a tiger without any fangs and hence I am allowed to roam alone in the forest while you aren't . Did you get it?"

Judd sweated and thought as Swann asked him the previous question, He thought, 'Good that this kid is bad at close combat or else I would have lost face in front of this kid for questioning him . Even I sneaked out of the camp to explore the wilds and catch that bitch bird . I guess this kid takes after me when it comes to his adventurous spirit . '

Swann still looked suspiciously at him this time but Swann later scratched his head and didn't defy him as he thought that Judd was correct when he said he would be a tiger without fangs .

He remembered about the horses that he saw earlier and decided to ask about them to Judd if he had any idea on them from their previous exploration, "Judd, This time I encountered some new exotic creatures when I was going through the forest .

Judd asked confusingly, "What sort of creatures, describe them?"

Swann remembered and described them, "Blue horses that ran on land and were able to swim in water with incredible speed . They were very mobile and had acute senses . "

Judd was suddenly interested as he heard about them and asked, "Really? What did they look like?"

Swann immediately described his encounter with those horses while Judd was keenly listening to him . Judd pretty got the idea on these horses as he heard him .

As Judd heard about them he was quite astonished and surmised, "Interesting, I can see why these horses are still able to survive on this island . I guess they are magical creatures with water magic and have very high mobility whether it is land or water, I am sure they can survive underwater as well . You made quite a good discovery this time around Swann . If we can breed these horses then we would have a very big ace in naval and land confrontation . Blake would be quite happy after hearing this news . "

Meanwhile, Swann murmured, "I guess they are offsprings of that Sea dragon as they have so many abilities . "

As Judd heard him he irritatingly spoke, "Bullshit, Don't scare me unnecessarily . Anyway, we are returning to the base, roaming alone is quite dangerous over here as night is approaching . We are leaving"

Judd sensed something and said the last sentence in a cold tone that could chill the spines of everyone present .

Swann agreed this time and followed him as he saw the change in tone, "Who knows, Anyway its night so I guess I will follow you . "

As both Judd and Swann left, a small creature's shadow could be seen . The creature was of average height as it didn't decide to follow Swann and Judd after observing the weapon for a long time and watching the fates of other wild animals . Meanwhile, it sensed danger from Judd .

Meanwhile, in the forest, Judd spoke as he killed animals he thought were dangerous and attacking them, "This weapon is quite a handful when dealing with those beasts . Additionally, this weapon is quite cool, I guess Lord John is quite a handful in making these things . Be careful of the small beasts, especially the red snakes or black cheetahs, they are one of the most dangerous animals because of their speed and hidden abilities that we encountered last time . You should always kill them from a range . Target the eyes of your enemies most of the time as they are the weakest and most vulnerable places of any animal . Do you understand?"

Swann nodded as he followed Judd in the forest .

Swann murmured as he saw the volume of animals increasing minute by minute, "It seems the animals are increasing as the day is passing by while the night is coming near . No wonder Admiral Blake warned us about the nights here at Aurora Island .

****

Both Judd and Swann arrived at the camp . During their time in the Forest, they faced a lot more dangerous beasts as they arrived safely because of the guns .

Swann thought as he reached the camp, 'Its good that I met Captain Judd this time around or it would have been a difficult journey and I would have worried others unnecessarily . '

However, he didn't know that others would have already worried about Judd as well since he too ran off from the camp .

Judd spoke to Swann as soon as they reached the camp, "This time as you remained well-behaved so I will not report you to Blake . Always follow your mates when you are planning to explore the Island, This island is full of dangers, you know . Tomorrow you will come with me to explore those horses which you witnessed . "

Swann looked suspiciously at him when he heard him, he thought, 'Why is he becoming so generous to me suddenly? Something is fishy for sure . "
