Chapter 42: The Bloody Battle Under the Moon

As a large hurricane of black pressure slowly swept towards Chen Xiao and the others, the huge swarm of bats gradually came into the eyes of Chen Xiao and the others.

I saw that two or three hundred meters in front of everyone's left, a large number of black and gray bats were constantly fluttering their wings, most of which were obviously larger than ordinary bats, and their wingspan was also wider, about one meter.

As the bright moonlight passed through the gaps between the bats, allowing everyone to see these monster forms through the moonlight, it also painted these beasts with a layer of silver-white luster, making their hideous faces even more looming, looking so gloomy, and accompanied by their sharp sound waves, people can immediately think of the vampire monsters in Western legends.

Chen Xiao held a large torch in his left hand and a machete in his right hand, looking at the approaching group of bats, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, but he commanded calmly: "Brothers, uncles, you must pay attention to the top of your head for a while, even if it is a beast, you can't kill it, you must also protect your own vital points, don't throw away the torch, don't mess with yourself, and don't leave the fire too far......"

After listening to Chen Xiao's reminder, everyone just nodded subconsciously, and nervously clenched the torch in their hands, without even turning their heads back, because the bat swarm was already less than a hundred meters away from everyone at this time, and looking at the number of these beasts, how could it be a thousand away, so it was no wonder that everyone was so nervous.

Guo Zirong stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat on his head, and after wiping the sweat on his clothes, he gritted his teeth and set up his bow and arrow, because the bat swarm had already entered the range of his bow and arrow at this time, and it was time for him to make a move.

As Xiao Guo's first arrow "swished" out, a hissing sound that was different from its normal cry came from the bat swarm, and at the same time, there was a burst of chaos in the bat swarm, and the formation was faintly disordered.

Seeing Guo Zirong's first arrow, Chen Xiao and the others' faces were also excited, and everyone's fighting spirit was also enhanced, and even their expressions were not as nervous as before, and the bats in the sky quickly regained their calm after panicking, and continued to fly quickly towards the place where everyone was with a more high-pitched hissing sound than before.

Although Guo Zirong was hit by an arrow, he didn't immediately rejoice, but continued to shoot arrows with a bow, because there were too many bats, killing one or two could not solve the problem at all, and these beasts were getting closer and closer to him and others, and tonight's battle was destined to be a protracted battle.

As Guo Zirong continued to release arrows, black shadows fell one after another in the bat swarm, and the little fat man and others couldn't help but be overjoyed, and they were eager to try.

"What's going on? How can there be so many bats today? At most, the first two days are more than half of today, could it be that I have tasted the sweetness in the past two days and called all my accomplices? Grandma's! Do you really think that we are easy to bully in Fengkou Village? ”

"Today, I have to kill you brutes and avenge the dead villagers! Let the horses come on! Something for a dog day! An uncle behind Chen Xiao seemed to have noticed something unusual in the sky, first muttered a few words in surprise, and then cursed indignantly, while several other uncles next to him also looked angry.

Chen Xiao didn't know the number of bats that came here two days ago, but the uncle's words should not be false, although there are a large number of bats, but he himself is not afraid, because according to his current strength, if these bats want to hurt him, it is estimated that they will have to pay a great price, and the only thing that worries him is the safety of the people around him and the villagers in the house.

Chen Xiao glanced at the bat swarm in the air, and found that these beasts were all rushing towards the location of himself and others, and did not divide the troops to go to the room where the villagers were, and his heart was also slightly relieved, it can be seen that Xiao Guo's arrows did play a great role, looking at these beasts at this time, it seems that they want to avenge their dead companions.

Chen Xiao calmed his mind for a moment, and shouted coldly: "Xiao Guo, continue to shoot, you must attract their attention, so as to ensure the safety of the villagers, and the others also concentrate and prepare to fight!" ”

After a few breaths, the swarm of bats flew above everyone's heads, but there were campfires behind them, and there were no bats attacking from behind for a while, and most of the bats circled in the air for a while, and then detoured back to the top of everyone's heads or directly in front of them, and swooped down on everyone with a strange hissing sound.

At such a close distance, the appearance of these beasts was naturally clearly visible to everyone.

I saw that the size of these bats was not only much larger than the bats before the disaster, but the largest was two or three times that of ordinary bats, most of the skin was black and gray, and the appearance was like a big mouse, with inches of hair, empty eyes, long fangs exposed, two inches long, two hind limbs stiffly stretched out claws, a posture ready to hurt people.

Chen Xiao and the other four people in the front row first came into contact with the bat group, but the four of them had already been in battle, so when dozens of black shadows attacked, although the four of them were a little scrambling, they still used large torches to successfully block the attacking enemy, and also left more than a dozen bat corpses.

Among them, Chen Xiao is the most fierce, one hand with a torch to force back the bats attacking overhead, the other hand is holding a machete to kill the Quartet, according to his current strength and physical strength, he is not afraid of the bite of the bats at all, after the siege of many bats is disturbed with the torch, as long as the remaining single bat does not retreat, he will be killed by him like chopping melons and vegetables, and after a while, his feet will be covered with a layer of flesh and bat wings.

Li Han and the little fat man are also struggling to wave the torches in their hands, struggling to resist the attacks of many bats, sometimes if they are lucky, they can also hit some black shadows that have not dodged the torches, and suddenly these beasts are in pain for a "squeak" scream, and a few bats have died under their torches, from time to time there are bursts of scorched smell drifting around, it seems that these burnt bats, the force of the blow is definitely not weak.

The thin Gao Feng was only able to resist the attacks of a large group of bats because his physical fitness was not as good as that of others, although he could occasionally hit a few black shadows, but he was busy for a long time, and he only killed two smaller bats, and his physical strength was also slightly weak, and he gasped for breath, and occasionally needed Chen Xiao beside him to take care of one or two.

The five uncles behind him have recovered their composure from the initial tension due to their age and relatively calm temperament, coupled with the experience of dealing with bats in the first two days, they are methodically blocking the army of bats attacking overhead with torches at this time, and by the way, the many bats that attacked behind Chen Xiao and the four of them were also driven away one by one, effectively resolving the worries of the four people in front of them.

Guo Zirong, who was hiding in front of the flames, was rarely attacked by the bats, and he was constantly shooting targets in the air with arrows, by the way, he kept an eye on Chen Xiao and the others in front of him, as long as a few people had defensive loopholes, he would shoot away, supporting the battle of the four in time.

Seeing that his defense was difficult, Xiao Guo shot an arrow at the top of his head from time to time in order to resolve his predicament, and as he continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows, his right hand that pulled the bowstring gradually became sore, but there were forty or fifty bats that died under his arrows.

With the passage of time, half an hour passed quietly, and the physical strength of Chen Xiao and the other four gradually became a little exhausted, Chen Xiao was better, just panting slightly, and his arms felt a little sore, while the other three were already tired and panting, and even the movements in their hands became slow, so it was difficult for the waving torches to hit the bats around them.

Although he was a little exhausted, a large number of bat corpses were piled up under the feet of several people, and the results achieved were obviously not expensive, and Guo Zirong, who supported everyone at the back, also felt the same, but what made him feel bitter was that there were few arrows in his heart, and it was difficult for the bow and arrow in his hand to continue to exert his strength.

Although the five uncles behind Chen Xiao were also resisting the attack of the bats, they were definitely not as stressful as the four people in front of them, so they still had a certain amount of spare strength.

Looking at the bat corpses all over the ground, the five uncles were very excited, and the excitement at this time could be described as raising their eyebrows, they never thought that they could kill so many of these beasts, the first two days were passive defense, and they didn't kill a few, and they also took the lives of several companions, which was really too wretched.

After feeling that the few people in front of him were exhausted, an uncle with a beard behind Chen Xiao hurriedly said: "Young men, you are also tired, leave it to us next!" Hurry up and rest for a while! You have made a great contribution today, and I thank you on behalf of the villagers! Thank you! ”

Chen Xiao looked at the little fat man and the others on the left and right, and knew that the three of them really couldn't continue to meet the enemy, so he nodded and ordered loudly: "Little fat man, Li Han, Gao Feng, keep a good formation, slowly retreat, and then let the uncles resist for a while, let's adjust it first, and then kill these beasts when we get better!" Keep an eye on your head and be vigilant when resting. ”

After the four of them retreated to the middle of the formation, the five uncles had already jumped out, and waved the torches in their hands vigorously, it seems that these uncles have indeed accumulated a lot of anger in their hearts, at this time there is no need for others to command, all of them are brave to take the lead, and they look like they have a deep hatred with the bats.

Chen Xiao and the others who were resting did not relax their vigilance, and from time to time they used torches to drive away the bats around them, and by the way, they recovered their lost strength, and Guo Zirong at the back had already exhausted all the arrows at this time, and he also waved around with a torch in his hand.

At this moment, a grass-green light suddenly floated out from the ground around everyone, and slowly floated towards the people in the field one after another, and they submerged into the body of the person closest to them, it seems that these green rays should be the energy crystal nuclei in the bat corpse.

When Chen Xiao and the others saw it, they couldn't help but be overjoyed, and they couldn't close their mouths happily! This is really a send-off in the snow! With these things, everyone's physical strength can be replenished in time, and it can also improve everyone's combat effectiveness!

Although there is not much energy in the bat crystal nucleus, and most of the crystal nuclei only have the energy of two or three ordinary crystals, but there are many of them, and the physical strength and energy lost by everyone are slowly replenished.

The five uncles in the front were originally a little exhausted, but after replenishing the energy of these crystal nuclei, they also became vigorous, as if their bodies had regained their power, and the waving torches became more and more rapid, protecting their bodies impermeable, and at the same time, they also made a batch of bat corpses that did not have long eyes on the ground.

Time passed slowly in the fact that everyone took turns to resist the attack of a ** bat, and at this time, under the background of the bonfire, the faces of Chen Xiao and the others were also reflected with bursts of fiery red halo, and fine sweat was constantly flowing down everyone's necks.

The breeze is coming, and the moon is priceless.

At this time, although it is the middle of the night, the bright moon is like a wash, the stars are brilliant, and it is a good time to enjoy the moon when you put aside the dense black bats around you.

After two or three hours of hard work, Chen Xiao and the others not only succeeded in attracting all the bats, but also left the bats stump fragments in one place.

Fortunately, the physical strength and energy lost by everyone can be replenished by the bat crystal nucleus after being killed, otherwise it would never have been able to support it until now, and it will become more and more courageous, but even so, everyone still has some injuries more or less.

Except for Chen Xiao's relatively strong body, who was only bitten through some epidermis, most of the others were bitten out of wounds, all covered in blood, including the blood of many bats in addition to his own blood.

Especially Gao Feng and the five uncles, except for the vital parts of the body, other parts of the body were bitten and bruised, and the little fat man, Li Han and Xiao Guo had snakeskin inner armor, so except for the more wounds on the arms and thighs, the other parts did not suffer much damage.

This shows the fierceness of the battle, but the most troublesome thing is that this group of bats who are not afraid of death, actually continue to attack wave after wave, as if the death of their companions can make them more crazy and excited, and some hungry bats can no longer bear the hunger for blood, and have rushed towards the corpses of the same kind on the ground, but in this way, it has relieved the pressure of many people.

The battle has continued until now, and three or four hundred bat corpses have been left on the ground, and the bats hovering in the air are obviously a little tired, and even the speed is obviously not as good as before.

After Chen Xiao swung his knife and slashed over a bat in front of him, he glanced at the house where the villagers were not far away, and couldn't help frowning, only to see more than a dozen scattered bats smelling the smell of the crowd in the house at some point, and at this time they were constantly flying and hovering outside the window, and trying to impact the house from the cardboard covered by the window.

But then, Chen Xiao relaxed, because he saw that the Ma Jing sisters and several other villagers had successfully blocked the bat's attack in the window, and they were still reinforcing the window shield, and not even a single bat rushed into the house.

Seeing that the Ma Jing sisters were able to deal with the situation in the house, Chen Xiao concentrated on dealing with the battle situation in front of him, and suddenly another burst of torches flew and machetes were horizontal......

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, and it is also destined to be a moment of blood and sweat......
