Chapter 809: The Battle of the Night
The willow tops on the moon, people about after dusk. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although it is not the Lantern Festival today, the moon tonight is exceptionally round, and the stars in the night sky are shining with charming brilliance.
Ding Yi leaned his back against the trunk of the tree, sat on a thick branch, and looked at the bright moon in the sky. I don't know if this round of bright moon is causing trouble, Ding Yi suddenly misses the fairy Chang'e who had a relationship in the DC world.
Decades have passed since that day's farewell.
Time flies in the world, and decades may be their life for ordinary people.
For Ding Yi, that day seemed like yesterday.
Everything is still vivid and unforgettable.
In Ding Yi's live broadcast room, many viewers saw Ding Yi looking at the moon in a daze, and they also gossiped.
Black Widow: "When a man is in a daze at something, or even unconsciously smiling, nine times out of ten he misses a certain woman." ”
[Tycoon] Tongtian Sect Master: "Little friend, you think of spring, hahaha......!"
【Tycoon】The Three Virgins: "Flower heart big radish, hum~!"
[Tycoon] Luo Feng: "Guess which woman Ding Yi is missing?"
Iron Man: "Do you have to guess? Although I don't particularly know the various cultures of China, I happen to be studying the myths and legends of China recently, what do you think Ding Yi is looking at now?"
Jade Rabbit Fairy: "I'll jump~!I'll jump~!I'm going to find the master!"
......
Ding Yi didn't pay attention to these barrages in the live broadcast room at all.
Just as he was immersed in the memories of the past, suddenly the entire settlement burst into flames, a huge bonfire was lit in the distance, and the dull sound of drums resounded through the night sky.
Ding Yi, who was interrupted from his memory, couldn't help frowning, and turned his head to look over there with a somewhat unpleasant expression.
At this moment, Hank rushed out of the wooden house below, looked up and shouted at Ding Yi who was sitting on the tree, "Chris, hurry, something is wrong!"
With a jump, Ding Yi jumped directly from the tree and landed in front of Hank.
"What's wrong?" he asked, looking at Hank.
"It's a jackal, a large group of Blade Ridge Jackal is coming this way!" Hank had a solemn expression, if the Blade Ridge Jackal appeared alone, it would not be a threat at all, and it would even become their food, but the meat of the Knife Ridge Jackal was not delicious, so they never hunted this creature.
But the problem is that the Knife-Spine Jackal on Skull Island likes to live in packs, just like ordinary wild wolves in the outside world.
They usually appear in a dozen or even twenty or thirty together, and even predators much larger than them have to stay away from them.
And the news that has just come from the outpost shows that there are more than forty Blade Spine Jackals that have been found so far, and there may be more that have not been seen later.
Hank had lived on Skull Island for almost thirty years, and the last time he had encountered such a situation was about eleven years ago, when they had killed the beasts, but the price they had paid was very heavy.
That's why, the natives of this settlement have been on Skull Island for thousands of years, but the number of people has never exceeded 1,000.
Basically, every once in a while, a large number of wild beasts on the island will attack, and in addition to the casualties caused by the usual hunting, the number of natives in the entire settlement is now just over 300, and this is still counting the elderly and children.
If only young adults...... There were less than two hundred people.
Inside the wooden house, James and the others also put on their clothes and ran out with weapons.
When Hank saw them all coming out, he hurriedly said, "We have to fight with them against the attacks of those beasts outside, or if the outer wall is broken, all of us will die here!"
Said as he walked. James realized the gravity of the situation and said.
At this time, Ding Yi was flipping through the barrages in the live broadcast room, and when he saw that everyone had guessed his own careful thinking just now, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
However, Ding Yi is not a young man in his teens or twenties, he is hundreds of years old, and he immediately returned to normal after a moment of embarrassment.
At this time, he saw Hank and the others preparing to set off and rush to the outside wall to participate in the battle, and Ding Yi also joined them, running quickly to the wall that was already full of people in the distance.
When Ding Yi and the others arrived, many people had already gathered on this side of the wall.
Simple lifting devices rose and fell, carrying an indigenous warrior armed with a bow and spear to the top of the wall.
Lifting devices like this obviously could not have been made by these natives, needless to say, it must have been the work of Hank.
"Quick, everybody!" a lifting device was just lowered when Hank immediately stepped forward to open the small wooden door, turned around and waved at a few people.
In the face of this life-and-death battle, even weak women like Dr. Shan and Weaver are involved. However, it is relatively safe on the fence, and in fact it may be safer there than it is to stay in the settlement.
The size of the sword-ridged jackal is not large, and it is slightly larger than the average wild wolf, but they are thin, and their waist and abdomen seem to be in a state of extreme hunger at any time, and their appearance and signs can be described as skinny.
Like the entrances and exits under the fence, which are more than one person high, they can enter and exit freely.
Therefore, even staying in the settlement is not absolutely safe.
On the contrary, on the wall, because of the height, it is very difficult for those sword-spine jackals to come up, plus there are many indigenous warriors armed with bows and arrows and spears on the wall, unless they are too numerous, it is impossible to climb the wall more than 20 meters high.
Standing on the lifting device, with a slight shaking and a 'crunch' sound in the ears, the device also gradually rises.
Looking through the gap in the middle of the wall, everyone could see a pair of miserable green eyes appear in the dark canyon outside the wall, each pair of eyes represented a sword-spine jackal, and at a glance they saw more than twenty or thirty of them.
Rather than rushing to their deaths, these sword-spine jackals hovered beyond the range of the native warriors' bows and arrows, slowly gathering more of their companions, as if waiting for a signal to attack.
Unlike others, darkness could not stop Ding Yi's gaze, he could see more pictures that others could not see.
Just behind the large herd of sword-ridged jackals, the bushes swayed, as if some behemoth was coming.
The Knife-Spine Jackals who had gathered together also raised their heads and let out a wolf howl at this time, which was like a signal of attack, and the dozens of Knife-Spine Jackals that were still hovering around the periphery suddenly rushed towards them.
On the wall, a large number of indigenous warriors shouted loudly and said something in the language of their tribe.
"Attention, there's a big guy coming in behind, be careful. Ding Yi took out a folded bow from his backpack, and unfolded it to remind a few people beside him.
Turning around, Ding Yi's eyes were also looking at the large group of sword-ridged jackals rushing in the distance.
"It's been a long time since I've used a bow, and I don't know if I have a hand. Ding Yi muttered as he picked up a stone arrow with a wooden handle and put it on the bow.
Draw a bow, shoot an arrow!
The action is done in one go.
The arrow tore through the air and pierced the head of a rushing sword-spine jackal, the wooden arrow could not withstand such a huge force, and it exploded almost the moment it pierced the skull.
"First head. Ding Yi remembered the number in his heart, and continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.
Nearby, gunshots rang out.
James' bullets weren't right, but now was not the time to talk about savings.
One bullet after another hit the sword-ridged jackals below, and immediately several knife-ridged jackals fell halfway down the road and could not get up again.
The atmosphere is tense and everyone is fighting.
One arrow after another broke through the air, but the nimble blade-spine jackal dodged most of the arrows. These indigenous warriors are not Ding Yi, even if the arrows they shoot hit, they will not be able to inflict fatal damage on these sword-spine jackals, fortunately, they are numerous, and one arrow will not work for two.
In fact, the sword-spine jackals that were shot by the indigenous warriors often had a dozen arrows stuck in their bodies.
Fortunately, they usually hoard enough arrows, otherwise with such a large consumption, I am afraid that before they kill half of the sword-spine jackals, they will have run out of ammunition and food.
The arrows placed next to Ding Yi unconsciously had only the last five left.
Basically, most of the dead Knife-Spine Jackals below were shot by him, even if James used an assault rifle, the number of Knife-Ridged Jackals killed was far from comparable to Ding Yi.
This was another wave of amazement for James and them to watch.
Sixty or seventy sword-ridged jackals, Ding Yi shot more than thirty alone, and at this moment, more than a dozen knife-ridged jackals who were still alive below had rushed to the bottom of the wall, their long and powerful claws directly buckled the surface of the wood, jumping upward, bloodthirsty, like a demon crawling out of the depths of hell.
On the wall, those indigenous warriors put away their bows and arrows, picked up their spears and stood at the edge of the wall, and threw them directly down.
From time to time, a sword-spine jackal was hit by a spear, and even if it didn't die for a while, it couldn't get up after falling, and it was impossible to threaten these people on the fence anymore.
More than a dozen sword-ridged jackals went forward like death squads, but in the end, only two managed to rush to the wall.
'Bang~', the knife-spine jackal who had just climbed the wall and had not had time to show his fangs was directly knocked out by Ding Yi.
On the other side, James teamed up with Slick and Brooks to shoot the other Blade Jackal to death. However, before they could kill the sword-ridged jackal, two indigenous warriors had already been wounded, and one of the indigenous warriors had a two-foot-long cut in his abdomen, and his intestines were leaking out, and he was afraid that he would not be alive.
Seeing their companions who were still fighting side by side one moment, but dying the next second, James' faces were also extremely ugly.
"Cheer up, the danger isn't over yet!" Hank took a deep breath as the rich smell of blood in the air entered his lungs, then turned his head to look into the dark depths beyond the walls.
There, several huge figures were approaching.
Ding Yifei jumped onto a wooden stake on the wall, looking at the figures in the distance, among them was his old acquaintance - the swamp evil Jiao that he had encountered before!
"This guy, isn't he here to seek revenge?" Ding Yi grinned.
The five monsters are led by two large woodland ghost bears that are over 25 feet (7.62 meters) tall on all fours.
Woodland ghost bears are carnivorous monsters that live in the southeastern region of Skull Island, and adult woodland ghost bears can reach 40 to 46 feet (12 to 14 meters) in length, with strong limbs and two large fangs on the upper jaw.
In addition, when their lives are threatened, woodland ghost bears will shoot a ring of steel needle-like hair around their necks, which is comparable to a Barrett sniper rifle at close range.
Behind the two woodland ghost bears, there are three swamp evil dragons, one of which was the one they had encountered with Ding Yi in the swamp before, and it still had Ding Yi's hunting knife stuck in its right eye, which had not been taken out yet.
The swamp monster seemed to smell Ding Yi's scent, and suddenly became irritable.
On the wall, hundreds of indigenous warriors who also found these five monsters were all horrified at this moment.
"Damn~!I've never seen this kind of monster before, how can it happen this time?" Hank also looked solemn, holding a spear in his hand, and the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out.
When they heard this, James on the side had some speculations in their hearts, estimating that it might be related to their arrival.
Because they also found the swamp worm that was injured in the right eye.
couldn't help but look at Ding Yi standing on the stake over there.
The swamp was wounded by him.
"Help me get my bag. Ding Yi suddenly turned around and said to James.
James nodded, went over and picked up Ding Yi's backpack and handed it to him.
Reaching out to take it, Ding Yi unzipped his backpack and took out a black quiver from it.
In the live broadcast room, seeing this familiar quiver, some viewers in the Marvel world also laughed.
Iron Man: "Clint, when did you deliver the equipment to Ding Yi?"
[Civilian] Black Widow: "Ding Yi, such a pirated version of Clint's equipment, be careful that he asks you for a license fee/snickering"
[Civilian] Hawkeye: "Regarding the licensing fee, how about we discuss it privately?"
Scarlet Witch: "Hint: Hawkeye has been kicked out of this live broadcast room and permanently restricted from entering !!"
Captain America: "Wanda, don't scare him, Clint is so timid......"
[Civilian] Hawkeye: "Captain, don't say anything, let's go it alone!"
......
glanced at these barrages in the live broadcast room, and the corners of Ding Yi's mouth also set off a curvature.
Carrying the quiver on his back, Ding Yi pressed a button on the bow with his fingers, and the bottom of the quiver behind his back immediately rotated 30 degrees, and an arrow completed the fixation.
In the distance, two woodland ghost bears roared in unison, and then galloped towards this direction.
Loud footsteps, a terrible movement like an earthquake.
Hundreds of indigenous warriors on the wall were discolored.
Woodland Ghost Bears, monsters of this level are beyond their capabilities. Not to mention that this time there were still two heads, and there were three equally terrifying swamp monsters behind them.
In the face of such monsters, the bows and arrows and spears in their hands were dwarfed at once.
On the wooden stake, Ding Yi stood in the wind, standing straight.
Behind him, James and the others looked up at him, I don't know why, they actually had a feeling that as long as there was this person in front of them, all problems would be solved.
Draw a bow, shoot an arrow.
Simple movements, but in Ding Yi's hands, they show a different kind of beauty, like nature.
The arrow that broke through the air, without the slightest sound, was like a black lightning bolt in the night, and the next moment there was a violent explosion, followed by a 'boom' like a boulder rolling down from a distant mountain.
A raging woodland ghost bear tumbled to the ground in an instant, and half of its head had been blown up.
One arrow, two woodland ghost bears are one of the two!
When the indigenous warriors on the wall saw this scene, they also shouted loudly, and looked at Ding Yi's eyes standing on the stake, and suddenly became reverent.
But the crisis is not over, and the remaining woodland ghost bear is already approaching this side.
"Such a big bear, I don't know if the taste of the bear's paw is good?" Ding Yi muttered as he continued to draw his bow and shoot arrows.
The remaining woodland ghost bear had no ability to resist at all, and followed his companion and ran to Yellow Springs.
Easily solved the two woodland ghost bears, Ding Yi can guarantee that he definitely did not break his promise at the beginning, just now he did not use more than ordinary people's strength from beginning to end, relying on his own really superb shooting skills, more with the help of equipment.
That's why Ding Yi used his own arrows, not the stone arrows made by the local natives.
If he had used stone arrows, he would not have been able to shoot those two woodland ghost bears, at most like the swamp monster, destroying their eyes.
But in just a few moments, the three swamp monsters were already close to the wall.
However, they were not sword-spine jackals, and their sheer size made them a little uncertain when facing a wall full of sharp wooden stakes, and the gaps between each sharp wooden stake were not enough for their bodies to pass through.
To climb the fence, or simply destroy it, they first have to deal with the sharp stakes that could hurt them.
After hesitating for a moment, the three swamp monsters under the wall suddenly waved their tails like steel whips, rolled up some large rocks on both sides of the canyon, and smashed them directly towards the wall.
At this moment, Ding Yi made a move that shocked everyone.
He actually jumped!
