37 Just use a canon (1/2)

[System: Dear Host, turn left and run for 100 m before turning left again.]

The system is doing his best. He doesn't want Huang Qiuyan to run into any random creature on its way. There are already a few chasing them. It is almost morning.

”Wait, don't go.” Creepy Eyes keeps turning on her way. Sometimes, she's on the ground. Sometimes, she pops right in front of the tree. By now, Huang Qiuyan is running with her eyes closed, following System's instructions.

[System: Dear Host, stop.

However, Huang Qiuyan cannot control her speed. She crashes right into the perimeter wall, skidding on the ground while screaming on the top of her lungs, finally stopping after crashing into a wall.

[System: ...]

Under the pile of dust, she grumbles. ”You should have warned me earlier.”

[System: Dear Host, eyes are meant to used for seeing.]

Meanwhile, the hunters at the headquarter suddenly hear the sound of continues crashing for good 5 minutes before they react. It is coming from the western part of the headquarter. The HQ is well-protected by ancient spells cast by the holy ancestors. The vampires cannot just waltz into the HQ. They will be repelled strongly by the forces surrounding the HQ.

Hunter A: ”Did the vampires just use a canon at the HQ?”

Hunter B: ”It's worse than the time when they threw bombs.”

Hunter C: ”All the converts have morphed into something else. They are not that smart yet to do something like this.”

Hunter A: ”Would humans do it? They are on our sides.”

Hunter B: ”There are fanatics who willing want to get bitten.”

Hunter A: ”Crazies! Let's check out what happened there. The leader would definitely punish us for not guarding that area and get hit by the canons.”

Hunter C: ”What kind of job is this? There is not even a lunch break. I want to complain.”

Hunter B: ”Try complaining to the leader. I will give you a 1000 bucks if you do that.”

Hunter C closes his mouth. If he does that, he might get fed to the vampires next. There's no telling what their sadistic leader might do.

The hunters run toward the western part of the HQ. When they arrive, Huang Qiuyan is already gone. There are large holes in the walls. They frown and look at the debris. Can a canon ball reach this far?
