Page 61 The Bat King

Twenty or thirty special-shaped crossbow arrows made of polymer materials swirled and moved forward in the air lightly and polarly, and they fanned out Merlin, who was barely standing up, and Nightingale, Wizil, Lingzi, and Heipu standing in front of him. Following the bolts, swarms of large-mouthed bats gathered into purple-black torrents that poured out of the forest, the sound of their wings flapping and the sound waves in their mouths that were indistinguishable from humans stirred the peace of the entire forest area.

Vezier made a short teleportation to the forefront of the team, and with a gloomy face, it raised its spoon-holding hands towards the crossbow bolts and bat army that were coming straight at it, and in an instant two waves of illusions that turned against each other erupted from its arms, and these fluctuations of power that released an extremely destructive aura stirred the air towards the crossbow arrows that flew first, tearing them into powder in an instant, and then rushing towards the army of bats, The purple-black torrent was forced out of two huge gaps. But as the power of the wave diminished and vanished, the huge gap created by Vizier was quickly filled up by the large-mouthed bats that pounced on it.

Just as Vizil jumped to the front of the team, Reiko also jumped to Vizel's side. It lowered its front body slightly, and the nine tails with gorgeous fur behind it were raised high, each tail flashing with crimson ability fluctuations, and the bright red eyes also shot out a crimson luster. Immediately following the exhausted illusion wave of Vizel, Lingzi also released his magic power trick, and the fiery red ability was like a wave of heat surging towards the purple-black tide composed of large-mouthed bats, and it actually suppressed the black tide backwards for several meters.

Although Hepu claimed to be a non-frontal combatant, in this case, he still stood ahead of Nightingale, only half a body behind Wizier and Lingzi. It was not idle, gently swinging the pendulum in its hand and releasing hypnotic fluctuations into the air, causing many small-mouthed bats to snort and fall from the air.

And the real non-combatant Nightingale acted as Merlin's last line of defense, and his imposing hands were just standing in front of Merlin, staring hard at the always gentle eyes carefully to pay attention to the changes in the battle situation, and from time to time he turned his head worriedly to look at Merlin's situation.

With the powerful alternating attacks of Wizil and Reiko, and the strong assistance of Hepu, the Kuroshio formed by the large-mouthed bats was never able to completely swallow Merlin's team, but no matter how many bats Wizir shot down, there would always be more bats flying out of the woodland and merging into the Kuroshio, and then they would continue to pounce.

And while Merlin's team was completely pinned down by the Kuroshio, the hunters who had only poured a batch of crossbow arrows had completed all their arrangements. About a dozen of these hunters climbed up to the treetops to act as snipers, firing crossbow arrows at Merlin when the Kuroshio Tide was temporarily repulsed by Merlin's team. More hunters split into teams of ten, and in the shade and shade of the trees, they took piles of parts from their backpacks and quickly assembled them into a set of large crossbow machines with fixed stands, and these precision mechanical devices, also made of lightweight but durable polymers, quickly unleashed their power. One person is responsible for turning the handwheel to correct the shooting position, and the other person is responsible for putting the standard arrows into the "magazine".

In mid-air, there are standard arrows that shoot out from ten different directions one after another, and the sky is full of purple-black bat tides that obscure the sunlight, and from time to time there are dark arrows that attack from the dark at tricky angles...... This is the game that Hunter G has for Merlin.

Hunter G was not eager to kill Merlin, he was not very enthusiastic about the price marked on Merlin's head, he was actually more interested in the ring that Merlin had. Of course, if Merlin can "kindly" tell him the origin of the ring, then Hunter G can't rule out that he will give Merlin a chance and give Merlin a happy death.

Standing far away on the periphery of the battlefield, surrounded by countless large-mouthed bats, the hunter chuckled softly and said to himself, "Bats won't kill you all at once, Boy, I'll drain and ......drain your blood little by little," he licked his lips with a loud noise, "It's been a long time since I've tasted the blood of the mighty." ”

Another army of crushing bats flapped their wings and swept over the head of Hunter G, pouring into the battlefield ahead.

Hunter G's Bat Legion didn't have much combat power, as Merlin knew for a long time. These large-mouthed bats are even less powerful than the average large-mouthed bats that can be encountered in the wild in caves or wooded areas, and they are only slightly more difficult than the almost threatening sound bats, and Merlin has often wondered why these bats with such strength have managed to evolve.

Although each bat has little combat power, when their numbers are counted in hundreds or even thousands, they are very threatening. With their huge base, their fearless state, and the terrifying sound waves that are mixed together, they already have enough strength to leapfrog and challenge those who stand at the top of the power pyramid. As for dealing with Merlin, who is no longer in combat power, and Wizir and Reiko, who are just emerging in the elite stage, it is even more of a problem.

In order to organize the defense, Merlin had released Dracula, Antri, Dark, and Kuknas, and had reclaimed the nearly exhausted Wizir to give it a break. And with the anti-sonic defense line created by Dracula and the ability to control bats given to it by the ring, Merlin's team, which lacks a significant firepower output, barely managed to support itself in the boundless black tide of bats.

However, in the face of the almost undiminished bat black tide, Merlin's companions gradually felt powerless due to the continuous consumption of their body and strength, even if Nightingale followed behind and used the reply trick to help their partners recover at any time, it would be useless, because the lack and reduction of strength was an important bottleneck that restricted the length of the battle.

To borrow the specific rules of the most popular Pokémon virtual handheld game, it is explained that the Pokémon's body is equivalent to HP, which affects the Pokémon's ability to move on the battlefield and the time of activity, and the consumption of the Pokémon to a dangerous level means that the Pokémon has lost the possibility of continuing to fight. The power is equivalent to the PP value of each special move that each Pokémon in the game will have, and when the PP value of a special move is used up, it will not be able to continue to perform this special move. However, there are some subtle differences between the actual power and the embodiment of the PP value, the PP value in the game restricts every trick, while the power in reality restricts all tricks under the same attribute and system.

Wizier withdrew a little early due to the fact that it took a lot of strength to cooperate with Merlin in the surgical operation, and Lingzi, who also helped Merlin with the operation, was obviously a little tired at the moment, and it kept releasing fiery red divine power to shake off batch after batch of large-mouthed bats, and at the same time occasionally spewed out a series of blazing flames from its mouth to burn a series of bats to the ground. But no matter how many bats it kills, there will always be more bats coming up to fill the void. It may have been that this kind of battle, which had almost no real achievements, made Reiko feel angry, and it suddenly stopped continuing its attack, and instead lay on the ground with its body low, brewing something.

"Boom~~"

The woodland shrouded by bats suddenly ignited a circular flame that soared into the sky, this was the vortex of flames released by the spirit son, and the fiery fire that was fierce and full of anger gushed out from the earth, and in just an instant, countless large-mouthed bats were enveloped in it, and they were ruthlessly dragged into the purgatory of fire and reduced to ashes. Not only that, but the hunters who were shooting peacefully on the periphery were all shrouded in this sudden flame, and they didn't have time to scream, let alone evacuate, so they could only be reduced to ashes along with their equipment and weapons.

The fierce flames came and went faster, and in an instant they gushed out of the ground and then disappeared in an instant. After the scorching flames had completely dissipated, the Kuroshio had retreated temporarily, and all but the small area where Merlin's team was located had turned a snow-white white, clean and devoid of any debris, except for a little ash drifting in the wind.

Merlin was stunned to see this, and in his shock, he even forgot the piercing pain in his chest. Although he knew that Lingzi had always hidden his strength, he never thought that Lingzi would be so powerful!

Lingzi, who was standing at the front of the group, felt something, and it turned its head charmingly, glanced at Merlin, and hooked the corners of its mouth at him, and then closed its eyes as if relaxed, and its body fell limply on the grass under its feet. Nightingale hurried over to investigate. Now it's just fainting because of the loss of strength, and there is nothing else to do. Merlin breathed a sigh of relief, and then he felt a sharp pain in his chest.

This should have been a great time to do it, as it was the opportunity to teleport Merlin's squad to get out of danger. However, at this optimal time, Merlin and Wizer, who were able to perform teleportation, lost the power to teleport. So he could only take this opportunity to take a little breather with his partners and not be able to slip away.

The brief gap lasted only a few seconds, and in a few moments another group of bats that seemed to be the same number flapped their wings and filled the clear sky again, obscuring the sun once more and filling the round, white clearing that was still steaming.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"What a vicious boy. I didn't expect you to be able to perform an attack of this level, but I don't believe you can continue to perform this kind of trick......" Hunter G, who was standing in the distance, was obviously trembling with anger, but he still tried to calm his tone as much as possible, "It seems that I am too indulgent to you!" It's time to teach you an even bigger lesson! At this moment, his side was extremely empty, except for a smaller large-mouthed bat standing on his forearm, and only eight cross-mouthed bats hovering beside him, but there was not a single large-mouthed bat around him anymore.

Holding his right arm flat, he said to the small, big-mouthed bat, "Go ahead and release the bats, release all the bats!" ”

There was a murmur from the hollow mouth of the large-mouthed bat, and then a man's voice came out, "Leader, our bats have been, have all been dispatched......"

"What?!" Hunter G yelled angrily, "What's going on!? ”

"This, this ......," the man hesitated.

"Speak quickly!" Hunter G said fiercely in a low voice.

"We've lost more than a sixth of our bats since the last contact with the target, and we haven't had time to replenish them...... This time, this time......" He hesitated for a long time and finally mustered up the courage to say loudly, "This time we have sent out all the large-mouthed bats we can send!" ”

"What?" Hunter G was already out of rage, and he clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles burst into bursts.

However, his subordinates are still reporting truthfully, "We only have a ration of breeders and some immature sound bats to use now!" "It's still provoking the Hunter G's anger, "Moreover, the number of these sound bats is not much, only about two hundred remaining......"

"Bastard! Idiot!! Hunter G scolded, "Incompetent waste! Can't you just mess up something!? ”

His men did not dare to refute or speak out, and simply let the hunter vent his anger.

"Unleash all the bats! None of them are left! After the invective was over, Hunter G screamed a new command from the depths of his throat, "Release it all!" ”

"Yes, yes!" His men cautiously replied to the order.

After a while, another batch of bats flew from the sky, but this time the Kuroshio was extremely thin and sparse, and most of them were weak sound bats and equally weak large-mouthed bats.

Glancing at the sparse team, Hunter G took a deep breath and exhaled again, "Boy, it's your choice, you choose to provoke me, you choose to provoke the Bat King!" You choose to challenge the Lord of the Bats! He shook the cloak that was tangled around his body, knocking it off his body, revealing his skinny skeleton body. The thin body was covered in layers of black gauze.

The gauze tightly wrapped around the head revealed only a pair of blood-red eyes, a pair of eyes that were shooting real rage. Hunter Glench, "Come on, my puppets! Taste the blood of your monarchs, and cut for your kings! He roared, "Come on, come on, take the forbidden power from me!" ”

Upon hearing Hunter G's call, the bat legion immediately pounced on his extraordinarily thin body, opening their mouthparts to reveal their hollow fangs, gnawing at his body covered under gauze, greedily sucking the blood under the black veil.

One after another white light suddenly appeared, and the sound bats that sucked the blood of the hunter G broke through the shackles of evolution in an instant and became a huge and fierce large-mouthed bat, and those large-mouthed bats skyrocketed in size after sucking the blood and turned into terrifying giant beasts.

"I'm the Bat King, the Lord of the Bat!!" Hunter Gung roared, and the army of terrifying bats around him, led by eight gigantic cross-shaped bats and giant large-mouthed bats, rushed into battle without hesitation, "Fight for me, my children......"

When the bats broke away from Hunter G's side and re-revealed Hunter G, the already thin creature became even thinner, as if he had really become a moving skeleton covered in a black veil and human skin.

"Blood, I need it, blood ......" he shuddered as he dragged his body around, muttering weak words in his mouth. Suddenly, he let out a roar and opened his mouth wide, revealing four sharp, blood-sucking fangs that tugged at the stinking saliva between them.

Bat King, a young female trainer who appeared like a comet in the Kanto area a few years ago. She has commanded her powerful and secretive bat squad and won numerous accolades, being revered by the world as the Bat King or affectionately known as the Batgirl. At that time, there was a legend that she fed her own bats with her own blood to make them stronger, and even sucked the blood of the bats to steal the bats' abilities...... However, these are just legends.

But just like her gorgeous and abrupt appearance, her disappearance was also very sudden and fast. The Coalition secretly arrested and sentenced her to imprisonment for her so-called taboo practice, and since then she has completely disappeared from the public eye. Until recently, a hunter who called himself G took the name of a hunter and rode the terrifying bat army to once again cover the night of Guandu with his own fleshy wings.

He is the Bat King. She is the hunter g.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The withdrawal of the main combat force, Reiko, immediately made the defense of Merlin's team full of flaws and flaws. The task of building a defensive line was almost entirely on the most experienced and powerful Antri, who was struggling to maintain the output of various tricks and shoot down large swaths of incoming bats, and its strength was already overwhelmed. Dracula, on the other hand, was too busy looking after the fragile anti-sonic defense system to participate in the frontal defense.

Dark, along with Kuknas, and Hemp are working to help Antri maintain the defense and prevent it from collapsing prematurely. Dark's inspiring telekinesis and freezing rays can also inflict heavy damage on the attacking bat army, and Kuknus's various tricks can also shoot down many bats, and even Hepu has to use hypnotism to interfere and attack with illusions.

Nightingale was also very busy, trying to recover Merlin's injuries while replenishing the body his companions had consumed. Due to the lack of defenses, the companions have been able to be hit by the tricks unleashed by the large-mouthed bats.

And Merlin, who has no ability to release his ability to fight the enemy for the time being, is forced to endure severe pain and command his partners to maintain defense, and if the situation does not continue to worsen, Merlin will not release new partners to participate in the battle.

But things often backfire, and just as Merlin's squad struggled to nibble away at the army of bats, which no longer seemed to have a successor, a group of significantly stronger new forces poured into the battlefield, sliding the already precarious situation into danger again - for Merlin, of course.

As a back hand, the hole cards need to be played decisively at the critical time, and too early exposure and too late will greatly reduce the utility of the hole cards. When Merlin saw the eight giant forked bats and the large, twisted large-mouthed bats behind them, he knew it was time for the second echelon to fight.

Pulling out a Poké Ball, two high-level orbs smeared with fiery red lines, and a high-level orb smeared with electric yellow veins from his arms, Merlin unleashed Caimen, Legion, Dragu, and Tander. Freezing light, spewing flames, and thunder, three completely different tricks immediately came out towards the sky, and the Merlin team, which also had a new force to join, once again barely maintained its own defensive line.

Because Sandel is not good at accumulating electricity, its attacks have great attenuation, the first thunder is the most powerful, only one of them electrocuted a huge forked bat that rushed to the front, and by the way, it was surrounded by a dozen giant large-mouthed bats to coke. However, when it once again unleashed its second thunder move, which was significantly weakened, it could only make the other giant forked bat stop its own trajectory. When it performed its third thunder move, the lightning that shot out was immediately neutralized by the air knife swung by the giant forked bat.

After three days, there was almost no need for Xander's thunder trick to be used again, the first power was 300 percent, the second power was 12 percent, and the third power was 80 percent...... If you continue to perform the thunder trick three times more, Xander will deplete her accumulated electrical energy.

But Sandel isn't the only one. After venting the loaded electrical energy, it immediately turned to a defensive state according to Merlin's instructions, using the free electrical energy after the air to create a wall of energy that halves the reflection, on the one hand, it helps the team members block the various tricks of the Bat Legion, and on the other hand, it makes it more difficult for the Bat Legion to get close to Merlin's team. While maintaining the halving reflex, Xander will use his sharp gaze to scare the bats that get too close.

Legion and Dragu were protected by Nightingale, but they weren't idle, and the two little ones kept spewing blazing flames into the air to scorch the bats. Occasionally, Legion would roar at the bats in the air with a terrifying roar to scare them. Dragu would occasionally shoot a dark blue ray of energy into the air to attack bats.

As for Kaiman, whose combat effectiveness was already very reliable, he kept spewing out thick and cold freezing rays into the air, and at the same time kept spewing out short water cannon tricks from the barrel behind him, and with a large body and carapace protection, he consciously stood in front of the team and used his body to block a lot of attacks for his partners.

The new large-mouthed bats weren't too tricky, and they were as weak and pitiful as they used to be. However, those giant and twisted large-mouthed bats are very difficult to deal with, and one or two restraint tricks may not be able to hurt them, but they are even more fearless of death, and they keep trying to pounce on Merlin's team with their huge mouths open. At the same time, the bats completely ignore the control that Dracula has made with the Ring. Thankfully, these giant twisted large-mouthed bats don't have any tricks, they just roar sound waves and try desperately to pounce and suck blood from their friends.

The real threat is the huge forked bats, except for one that was killed by Sundel's infinitely powerful thunderbolt as soon as they first appeared, the remaining seven forked bats have not been damaged until now, they are constantly pouring all kinds of tricks into the Merlin team from the air, and they can often suppress the attack of the Merlin team.

"Boom!" Darker and Caimen used the freezing rays to hit a deeply wounded crossbat at the same time, and the cold ice trick directly froze most of its body, but even then the giant bat violently flapped the other side of the flesh wing and managed to maintain its flight, until it was knocked away by Antri's illusion before falling to the ground. But even after its fall, it still did not lose its ability to fight, and still struggled to continue to take off and participate in the battle.

Compared to the orderly attacks before, the current Bat Legion is carrying out the final crazy counterattack, their attacks are not in order, but each of them uses their instincts to perform what they think is the right attack. Merlin didn't know why they had lost their unified command, he only knew that this kind of attack without command and coordination could no longer lead to the destruction of their squad. Although the bats in the madness are more fierce and dangerous, they are no threat if they have no brains.

One giant cross-shaped bat after another was shot down from the sky, and one after another giant twisted large-mouthed bats fell to the ground...... When the last giant bat was also planted in the ashes and wreckage, Merlin was really relieved, and hurriedly took out the treasure ball to take back his companions, who were already at the end of the crossbow, and stood up with the little body and ability that he had just recovered, and floated through the devastation in mid-air, and he flew straight in one direction and flew firmly.

There's that bat king there, there's that hunter g's cunzài!

But when he flew slowly to the clearing, all that was left was the corpse lying on the ground. Judging by their outfits, they should all be hunters under Hunter G, but these dozen or so men and women who were still warm were all emaciated and shriveled corpses at the moment, leaving only a pair of distorted and fearful faces.

Merlin carefully examined the corpses, and now they had four huge holes in the major arteries of their necks, and the reason why they were shriveled was because they had all been drained of blood and fluids!

He couldn't help but think of the legend about the Bat King, the legend about her ability to steal bats.

"You've really become the 'Bat King'......" Merlin hissed as he spoke and pulled the wound again. Merlin didn't intend to dwell on this natural thing, he had already repelled the hunter's army of bats, and neither she nor he or even it was basically no longer a threat to Merlin, who was gradually recovering.

One last glance at the corpses on the ground made Merlin feel a pang of discomfort in his throat, and he hurried away again.
