Chapter 49: Spooky Sinkhole
And Zao Wou-Ki was also full of doubts about the attack of the beast tide this time.
At this time, he had already sent the Sky Devourer to spy on the information.
A quarter of an hour later, it flew back,
It told Zao Wou-Ki bad news: "My friend said that it seemed to go crazy when it saw those demon beasts, this situation it had never encountered before, and it didn't know what was going on!"
Listening to the answer of Devouring the Sky, Zao Wouji's heart sank, and he felt that there must be something strange behind it.
Since the Sky Devouring Sparrow had told him that those demon beasts were now very insane, Zao Wou-Ki felt that it was very likely that those demon beasts had been controlled by someone, or that something had happened in the sinkhole.
Many of the soldiers present were frightened when they saw those demon beasts, and some of them were trembling with their legs.
At this moment, they would rather fight those barbarians than those crazy demon beasts in front of them.
Among those demon beasts, there are infinitely powerful black mountain bears, extremely poisonous three-step snakes, and blood mosquitoes the size of an adult man's fist.
These are very terrifying demon beasts, and the soldiers present are very afraid of these demon beasts.
After those demon beasts approached, Zao Wou-Ki and the others saw that the eyes of those demon beasts were all scarlet as blood, and they seemed to be crazy, rushing around and bumping into each other.
Many demon beasts that were knocked to the ground were quickly trampled into flesh by the demon beasts that came from behind like a tide.
Zao Wou-Ki saw that although those demon beasts were running extremely fast, they were like headless flies, rushing around.
This scene made him feel that the behavior of those demon beasts was very strange, and he asked Yi Zhen.
Yi Zhen told him that he judged that the demon beasts should be frightened.
And this fright is not an ordinary fright, but it is really enough to scare them to the point of panicking.
"Generally speaking, those demon beasts are frightened like this, either there are two possibilities, one is that they have encountered a very terrifying enemy, and that enemy has released a very powerful divine soul attack on them. Those demon beasts couldn't withstand such a terrifying divine soul attack, and they were so frightened that the six gods had no master. Another possibility is that those demon beasts in front of you have been controlled!"
Yi Zhen said.
"Can you tell me which kind of possibility they suffered?"
Zao Wou-Ki asked suspiciously.
"I can't tell for sure, unless I can force access their memories, otherwise it's hard for me to know what happened to them. ”
Zao Wou-Ki's answer to Yi Zhen felt very reasonable.
Now what those demon beasts are all about, no one can say, and only those demon beasts know what is wrong with them.
"Let's retreat now!"
After a while, everyone present felt that the earth was trembling, and they knew that the beast tide was really coming.
Then, they saw all kinds of demon beasts like a tide appear in front of them.
They heard the deafening roars of various demon beasts, and they knew that those demon beasts were very close.
They were all pale and bloodless, and they feared that if they didn't leave, they would never have a chance again.
"Let's retreat first!"
Zhao Tianming made a decision immediately, and then he led Zao Wou-Ki and the others to leave quickly.
The other soldiers were relieved when they heard this.
Zhao Tianming frowned, he was now able to judge the general strength of the demon beasts in front of him, he felt that even if the soldiers of the entire Zhennan County went up together, there would be no way to defeat the beast tide attack this time.
Although the demon beasts in front of them looked like headless flies scurrying around and killing each other, the number of those demon beasts was too much, even if they sacrificed some, they would not affect the entire demon beast group, and most of the demon beasts would still rush towards the front like a tide.
Those demon beasts are all powerful, and I am afraid that it will take the lives of five Zhennan County soldiers to exchange the lives of one demon beast.
"You and the others go first, I'll go catch some monsters, and I'll see what the hell is going on with them!"
At this time, the Sky Devouring Sparrow volunteered.
"Then you have to be careful!"
Zao Wou-Ki said gratefully.
"I will!"
As soon as the Sky Devouring Sparrow's body flashed, it turned into a streamer of light and quickly rushed towards the beast tide in front.
A moment later, Zao Wou-Ki and the others saw that it had grabbed a fox demon beast from those demon beast groups.
At this time, the Sky Devouring Sparrow had already become about the same height as Zao Wou-Ki, and it looked like a giant eagle.
The others were shocked to see that the little guy who was originally the size of a fist and looked like a sparrow had now become the size of an adult man, and they remembered the identity of the little guy, it was a real monster!
The Sky Devourer threw the fox beast to the ground and said to it, "I know you've turned on your sanity, what the hell did you say was going on?" ”
The fox beast looked around and felt that it had no hope of escaping.
In desperation, it had to open its mouth to speak: "This friend, don't hurt me, I am a good demon, I will not be an enemy of the Terrans, and I have not killed any Terrans!"
"I'm not asking you this, you tell me, what the hell are those demon beasts in front of?"
Zao Wou-Ki asked.
"I don't know, I heard that there are two powerful mountain demons who are fighting in front. Originally, they hit them, and it had nothing to do with us, but I don't know why, suddenly that big pit erupted with a powerful force, and that force instantly attacked our spirits, making us lose our minds, just like crazy beasts, what about me, I wasn't very sober before, and then I gradually came to my senses, but after I woke up, I saw those wild monsters all around, and I had no choice, I had to move forward with them! I'm a good demon, I haven't killed anyone, and I don't regard the human race as an enemy, friends, please let me go!"
The fox begged for mercy.
"Don't worry, I'll let you go!
The Devouring Sparrow released the fox and demon beast.
"Thank you, fellow!"
The fox demon beast's body flashed, and it quickly rushed towards the dense forest in front, and soon, it disappeared into the dense forest in front.
After Zhao Tianming saw the actions of the Sky Devouring Sparrow just now, he immediately admired the Sky Devouring Sparrow.
He didn't expect that the little guy he thought was just a good-looking and useless little guy before would be so powerful.
"It seems that I will never be able to underestimate any demon beasts in the future!"
"You make your own decisions, what should you do, I can't make decisions for you!"
Sky Devourer said.
"Okay!"
Zao Wou-Ki immediately asked his father, Zhao Tianming, to find a way.
Zhao Tianming's mind turned quickly, but the current situation made him feel anxious, and he couldn't think of a good way for a while.
From the analysis of the fox demon beast's words, he judged that the attack of the beast tide this time was most likely not caused by the Feather Demon Sect, but a powerful divine soul attack suddenly appeared in the sinkhole.
He couldn't tell if this divine soul attack came from the Feather Demon Sect or if it was the strange power that existed in the pit itself.
Everyone who lives in Zhennan County has always had a legend.
This legend is related to the sinkhole, it is said that there is an ancient beast that has been sealed for more than 10,000 years in the sinkhole, and this ancient beast has not died, but has been imprisoned in the sinkhole.
In the past, there were many powerful masters who wanted to enter the sinkhole to find out, but before those masters could get close to the sinkhole, they were attacked by the demon beasts near the sinkhole, and they finally failed to do so.
Even if some powerful masters were able to successfully enter the sinkhole, although they searched the sinkhole carefully, in the end, they found nothing.
But those masters who successfully entered the sinkhole will eventually get a serious illness, and the souls of many masters have been severely damaged.
Therefore, that sinkhole is considered a forbidden place, and it is absolutely forbidden for any human race in Zhennan County to venture into the sinkhole.
"We should put the poultry on the road, and let the monsters eat them, I don't believe that the monsters won't be hungry! Then, we will use some poultry to introduce those monsters into the dense forest ahead!"
After a while, Zhao Tianming decided to use the old method.
"Yes!"
The soldiers replied in unison.
In Zhennan County, there are beast tides every fifty years, so every soldier here must actively prepare for the outbreak of beast tides.
And the method that Zhao Tianming said just now is the training content that those soldiers have received before.
And here in Zhennan County, successive city lords will deliberately open up a large area to raise a large number of poultry, which is used to deal with the attack of animal tides.
Once the beast tide hits, then they can use those poultry to lure away the demon beasts in those beast tides.
This method has been effective for hundreds of years, and each time it has succeeded in attracting the monsters in the midst of the beast tide to the dense forest.
The method Zhao Tianming said is actually the content of the military training in Zhennan County every year, and the soldiers here are very familiar with this kind of military operation.
Those soldiers, under the leadership of Zhao Tianming, soon joined up with the team that caught poultry.
When Zhao Tianming saw the poultry, he immediately asked the soldiers to cut off the heads of some of the poultry, spilling their blood on the ground.
He believed that the strong smell of blood would attract those demon beasts to come.
And Zao Wou-Ki was with Zhao Tianming, and after those soldiers were ready for everything, they rushed to the front of those demon beasts with some poultry.
When the demon beasts saw them coming, they all roared angrily, letting out a thunderous roar.
Zao Wou-Ki and Zhao Tianming immediately sprinkled the blood of the poultry on the ground, and soon, those demon beasts became even more crazy.
