Chapter 19: The Plague of the Wild Bats

Hong Yuan hid in a big tree, condescendingly and coldly looking at the courtyard in the night.

It was pitch black inside and outside the walls, but the lights were still on in Master Donford's study. Under the light, Tang Fu was busy continuing to refine the pill, and the thick medicinal fragrance permeated the entire courtyard, and this furnace of elixir looked like it was about to be refined. At first glance, the surroundings are peaceful and quiet, there is nothing unusual, and even the guards in charge of guarding are much less.

Hong Yuan touched the distance between him and the study, and saw that Tang Fu was concentrating on alchemy, so he couldn't help but make a move, and after taking a few deep breaths, he forcibly calmed down, calmed down and waited patiently.

More vampire bats and grimaceous long-winged butterflies flew out, haunting the pond, on the rockery, and even in Donford's study, and many images came to Hong Yuan's mind. After the power of the Divine Soul has increased greatly, the sensing range has increased significantly, and there is no need to risk the Divine Soul Night Tour to skillfully find out the situation in the courtyard. It seems that Donford's annex is undefended tonight, but it is secretly full of murderous machines. There are no secret sentinels and guards in the courtyard, instead there are many mechanisms, and in the room next to the study, there are a large number of heavily armed ambush soldiers, and there are several powerful ironclad guards lurking near the three-headed cerberus.

It's a trap!

Okay, you old dog, you actually acted as a bait yourself, just waiting for yourself to take the bait!

Hong Yuan's heart was awe-inspiring, and he waited patiently in exchange for a harvest, and slowly groped out all the arrangements of Master Tang Fude, knowing that this was a powerful trap. I was still a little puzzled just now, with the ruthlessness and cunning of Master Donford, why he didn't defend at all, but now I understand everything. Obviously, after two late-night attacks in succession, Donford, the old dog, was well prepared, relying on his strong power to kill the uninvited guest in turn.

"Traps aside, there are five Ironclad guards alone, three hiding next to the three-headed Cerberus and two behind the study door. ”

"Thirty-one archers, seventy-three samurai, and seventeen sentry. ”

Hong Yuan silently remembered the troops in the courtyard, and his face was solemn.

Now, it's best to turn around and leave. In this way, I am safe, but my aunt may be in danger. It seems that Tang Fu will be able to refine the elixir tonight, and then use the secret method to collect the three-headed hellhound as a war pet. When the time comes, this old dog will be able to concentrate on colluding with the second master Ye Feilong, in order to harm his aunt, I don't know what kind of conspiracy he will come up with.

In the second half of the night, the air was getting colder and colder, and it was drizzling.

Hong Yuan didn't leave, nor did he make a rash move, lurking on the trunk of the tree and continuing to wait patiently. He had been preparing for this day for a long time, and it was impossible for him to give up like this. Now, what is needed is to wait, to wait for an opportunity to arise.

Little by little, time passed, and both sides waited in silence.

Master Tang Fu knew that tonight was the day when the elixir was baked, and the fragrance of the medicine had spread far away, and the uninvited guests would definitely appear again;

Hong Yuan also knew that the treacherous master expected that he would appear tonight, knowing that the other party had been fully prepared, he still did not give up, and both sides were waiting. This is a contest of strength, but also a contest of patience.

The rain was not heavy, but it was getting colder and colder, and the closer you got to dawn, the colder it became.

Hong Yuan had been lurking motionless on the trunk of the tree, feeling that his hands and feet were numb and about to freeze. In the courtyard, the guards who patrolled in decaying clothes finally couldn't stand it anymore and began to look for a place to take shelter from the rain, and the ambush soldiers hiding in the room also dozed off in a drowsy state.

In the study, two ironclad guards stood behind the door, one left and one right, the ironclad guard on the left was still straight, but the other was a little uncontrollable, and took a step forward and said: "Master, it's almost dawn, the brothers can't stay up for a day and a night, you see......"

"Hmph, it's useless. Rest for a day, continue tonight, I don't believe it, that uninvited guest is just like that, unless he is really seriously injured and can't come, hehe, then it will be cheaper for him!" Tang Fu snorted coldly, played a few tricks, the alchemy furnace suddenly burst into flames, and began to refine the pill with all his might, "Tell the second master, my side will be finished soon, and I will take the three-headed hellhound to see him after dawn." ”

"Yes, congratulations, master. ”

The ironclad guard bowed down to receive the order, turned around and opened the door and walked out, whispered a few words in the ear of a guard, and then reported to the second master, Ye Feilong. Behind him, the guards who received the order cheered and completely relaxed, some of them meditated cross-legged and cultivated, and more fell asleep on the spot. has been tense and lurking for a day and a night, and the iron body can't bear it. However, despite the relaxation of their hearts, no one dared to move around without permission, preparing for the next action. It's a pity that Hong Yuan won't give them such a chance again.

Hong Yuan, who had been waiting in the cold rain, finally waited for the opportunity to make a move.

In the darkness, a large swarm of vampire bats and ghost-faced long-winged butterflies suddenly rushed out, quickly gathered together, and then swooped down on the people, launching an indiscriminate attack. There are many mechanisms in the courtyard, but all of them are aimed at assassins, and they have no effect on flying monsters, all of them are useless.

The ambush soldiers in the courtyard suddenly fell into endless chaos and panic, and many people didn't know what was going on, so they were bitten off their throats by vampire bats in a daze.

"Bats, why are there so many vampire bats, has the ancient prohibition on the edge of the abyss of death completely collapsed?"

"Save me, it's all vampire bats, save me......"

......

Unsuspected, the self-proclaimed elite guards collapsed, and even if some barely picked up their swords to defend themselves, they were overwhelmed by the hordes of vampire bats. The only ones who can protect themselves are a few outstanding ironclad guards, but they can only protect themselves for a while, and they can't resist the impact of the bat swarm. After witnessing a careless Iron Guard being bitten off the neck by the Blood Bat King, the rest of the Iron Guards who also wanted to do so suddenly shrank back.

Plague of Bats!

More than 2,000 vampire bats suddenly appeared, bringing a disaster to the ambushers, and the long-winged butterfly with a grimace on its wings made it even worse.

In the Gods and Ghosts Continent, vampire bats and ghost-faced long-winged phoenix butterflies are just the most common demon beasts, and in the past, few people would take such a little guy in their eyes. However, when the number increased to more than two thousand, the terrifying power was revealed. Especially under the leadership of the Blood Bat King, the combat power of each vampire bat is completely different from usual, and the attack is extremely ferocious.
