Chapter 8: The Revolt of the Weak

The number of yellow dogs that entered the village was eight, and there were about 100 people on the villagers' side, except for children, pregnant women, and a few elders who were responsible for the transmission of knowledge, and the rest of them took up arms, although most of them were only sharpened bamboo poles.

Due to the protection of the sacred wood, the long-term peace has made the village extremely lacking in combat power, and it is not even possible to find a warrior who can confront the demons head-on. In addition to the spellcasters and hunters, there was the escort of less than ten people in the village, and the rest were civilians with no combat experience.

However, most of the people are arranged on the side of the Holy Wood, and the front line side is at least capable of fighting.

"Archery!"

At the sound of an order, more than twenty hunters drew their bows and fired a volley.

Although they all hit the target, compared to the size of the yellow dog, the arrow only does not deal much damage.

That's when the casters struck.

The attack spells in the village are mainly based on the control of plants.

I saw that many vines around me rushed out to tie up the yellow dogs, or whipped them, and carnivorous flowers full of sharp teeth would emerge from the vines, and they would bite the yellow dogs directly.

Chen Mo also aimed at a yellow dog that was entangled, and the two iron chopsticks flashed, first discarding a pair of dog eyes, and then raising his sword with both hands and slashing it down on his neck.

It's only halfway in, and the blade of the sword is stuck and can't move.

This yellow dog's physique is so hard that it is a bit ridiculous, and it can't be cut through with Chen Mo's strength at all.

"Stand back, its blood is also poisonous, be careful not to get it. 」

Nicole has been following Chen Mo to pay attention to his safety, and when she saw this, she warned him.

Chen Mo immediately drew his sword and retreated, and Nicole then waved the wooden staff in his hand, and several vines turned into wooden thorns, which flew directly into the body of the yellow dog from the wound on his neck, and then drilled out from the eyes, mouth, nose, buttocks and other parts.

It's just that the injury is like this, this yellow dog is still not completely dead, and Chen Mo finally knows how difficult the so-called demons are to deal with.

Nicole put a lot of force, and the lignified vines supported the yellow dog's body directly from the inside.

At this time, the battle situation elsewhere was also fierce, and the village guards performed better than Chen Mo, and two of the dog's heads were cut off by them.

But as the battle lengthened, the situation began to be a little less optimistic.

The yellow dogs have an erosive force, and the vines that entangle them for a long time begin to lose their vitality, and finally die and turn into black mud.

However, Chen Mo cooperated with everyone, and then killed two more, and the advantage was still on the side of the village.

But at this time, some villagers came to the summons.

"On the other side, demons ran in, and they rushed towards the sacred tree. 」

After fighting with that group of demons for a few years, everyone in the village knows the cunning of the demons, plus they arranged a large number of people to garrison the holy wood earlier, and put up a posture of guns like a forest on the side of the holy tree, not seeking to attack, and it is no problem to use it for self-protection for a period of time.

Therefore, after hearing the news, the people in the village did not panic much, and the commander also dispatched some people to support the holy wood first.

However, the remaining three yellow dogs are not so easy to deal with.

The caster controls the vine attack if the plant can be used as a medium, but the plants in the vicinity are almost corroded. Without the restraint of vines, the yellow dog's flexible body was deployed, and there were casualties at the scene.

Chen Mo, who had performed eye-catching in the previous battle, immediately became one of their targets.

Chen Mo's eyes chased after him, but he couldn't catch up with the speed of the yellow dog's running at all. Ordinary physical ability, even deviation, is Chen Mo's biggest weakness.

Since he couldn't see it, Chen Mo simply stretched his spiritual power to the limit.

At this time, Chen Mo's spiritual power sensed that a yellow dog pounced on him behind him. But at the same time, Nicole also rushed over with a cane to block it.

"Don't be so bloody. 」

Chen Mo turned around, pulled Nicole to the ground with one hand, and then squatted forward, holding the sword in both hands and stabbing upward, stabbing into the belly of the yellow dog.

Then, a sword slashed forward.

It was not enough to rely on Chen Mo's own strength, he simply applied his spiritual power to the long sword, which was equivalent to his spiritual power supporting the long sword, plus Chen Mo's own strength, all of them burst out in one breath.

This sword, directly slashed to the end, in addition to completely cutting open the abdomen, also cut off one of the hind legs of the yellow dog by the way.

Chen Mo stretched out his hand and pulled Nicole up and said, "I have a strong mental strength, they can't sneak up on me, you don't have to sacrifice your life to help me stop it. 」

"I just wanted to put a shield...... Nicole's eyes widened.

Chen Mo was embarrassed at this time.

The other yellow dog was also solved by everyone, and the remaining one was also caught by Chen Mo and had the opportunity to abolish a pair of dog eyes.

The yellow dog that couldn't see anything ran around, and was gradually restrained by Chen Mo's spiritual power.

"You all go over and support the Holy Wood first, and I'll be there later. 」

Nicole hesitated, but nodded, after all, she was also worried about the situation on the Holy Tree's side. After leaving a few people to care for the wounded, Nicole left with the villagers.

Not long after, Chen Mo cut off the yellow dog's head with a sword, ending the battle.

Seeing the black blood stained on the sword's body, Chen Mo wiped it with the fur on the yellow dog's body, but found that the eroded pits and scars on the sword's body couldn't help but feel a little distressed. The longsword was a coincidence, and he didn't know how to change to a new weapon.

"This dog's blood is really black and poisonous. 」

It is said that Chen Mo inevitably has a lot of dog blood splashed on his body, but he feels that there is nothing serious, maybe it is his own self-healing ability that is working.

Chen Mo inspected the corpses of the demons present and made sure that it was safe before running in the direction of the holy tree.

It's just that halfway through, Chen Mo was careless. He thought that there were no enemies in this area, so he was relieved to withdraw the spiritual force field, but as a result, a yellow dog lurked on the roof of the road, taking advantage of Chen Mo's lack of attention and threw him to the ground.

At that time, Chen Mo only hurriedly grabbed the upper and lower jaws of the yellow dog with both hands, but he couldn't stop the other party's foul-smelling sharp teeth from gradually approaching his neck, even if he desperately exerted his spiritual power.

As death gradually approached, Chen Mo felt a trace of fear for no reason.

He remembered what Nicole had said. Even if Chen Mo himself didn't care about life and death, when the survival of the entire village was pressed on Chen Mo, could he still be so calm?

At the moment when the yellow dog was about to bite Chen Mo's neck, the yellow dog foamed at the mouth and fell down.

It was not that someone saved Chen Mo, but that Chen Mo suddenly woke up, directly penetrated the opponent's brain with his spiritual power, and then used his strength to twist it.

Chen Mo pushed away the corpse of the yellow dog and slowly got up. The vest on his chest had been scratched by the claws of the yellow dog, and it seemed that the combination of iron chopsticks and police vest still came in handy, and it saved his life.

Counting the ** demon time, Chen Mo went through life and death again, but this time he felt more deeply than the last time. He felt as if he understood something, but when he thought about it, it seemed as if he didn't understand anything.

"Do what I can. 」

Chen Mo read in a low voice, picked up the long sword, and continued to run towards the holy tree.

There were ten yellow dogs that raided the Holy Tree, but the Holy Tree itself has the power to drive away evil spirits, although it has weakened a lot, but the demons are so close, and the damage they receive is still great.

The group of yellow dogs did not mainly attack the villagers, but desperately tried to cut a claw on the sacred tree.

However, the speed of the yellow dog was suppressed by the sacred wood, and the villagers tried their best to block it, but did not let the yellow dog break through the defense line. Coupled with the fact that the peripheral manpower began to come back to support, this group of yellow dogs was even more unlikely to succeed.

Seeing that they couldn't attack the holy tree, the group of yellow dogs began to attack the villagers frantically to vent their anger, and when Chen Mo arrived, what he saw was such a chaotic scene.

At this time, he saw Jim cast vines to entangle a yellow dog, but he was not capable enough, so he let the yellow dog break free of the entanglement and rushed towards Jim in the opposite direction.

But at this time, Chen Mo was more than ten meters away from him, and his spiritual power could not work at all.

Seeing that Jim was about to die under the dog's paws, Chen Mo heard Jill say something quite familiar at this time.

"Frog Seed, use the Vine Whip!"

"Huh?" Chen Mo paused at his feet and almost fell.

I saw two vines suddenly burst out, directly knocking out the yellow dog that attacked Jim.

At this time, Chen Mo saw clearly that beside the cat-eared little Lori, there was a strange frog half a person tall. The big frog had blue-green skin and a bud-like object on its back, but Chen Mo knew that it was actually a seed.

The yellow dog that flew on his back didn't give up.,Rushed over again.,But this time the object was replaced by a little Lori with cat ears.。

The cat-eared little Lori was frightened by the vicious appearance of the yellow dog, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

"Don't be afraid, use the Flying Blade. 」

Hearing someone remind, the cat-eared little Lori said nervously, "Wonderful frog seeds, use the Flying Leaf Knife!"

"Seeds!"

The wonderful frog seed responded, and several swirling leaves appeared around its body, and quickly hit the yellow dog. The yellow dog was in pain, and his moving figure couldn't help but pause.

Chen Mo, who arrived at this time, seized the opportunity and directly used his mental power to destroy the opponent's brain.

"Are you alright?"

Chen Mo looked at Jim and Jil, and Jim nodded, "No problem. 」

Glancing at the Miao Frog Seed, although Chen Mo was puzzled in his heart, he also knew that now was not the time to ask, so he just asked the brother and sister to be more careful, and then went to help the other villagers deal with the yellow dog.

Chen Mo's ability to directly hit the brain is simply cheating, no matter if it has thick skin and thick flesh, sharp teeth and sharp claws, as long as he seizes the opportunity to take it so gently in the other party's brain......

So in the eyes of the villagers, there was a scene that was quite puzzling.

The demons who were originally attacking crazy and ferocious, just like this, suddenly foamed at the mouth one by one, fell to the ground and died.

The villagers couldn't believe that you look at me, I look at yours, and the scene was silent.

They...... And so victorious?

However, at this time, the elder Chen Mo had seen stomped on the ground with a cane, waking everyone up.

"Don't forget, there's a big one out there!"

This sentence made the villagers clench their weapons again and become on guard. Although the villagers have not officially fought the demon leader, anyone who has seen it can feel that it is terrifying.

Everyone gathered nervously around the sacred tree, as if the terrifying black dog would jump out of the darkness in the next second.

Just waited for a long time, but there was no movement around, and the elder asked him to look outside the fence, but the answer was that the demon had receded.

However, everyone did not dare to take it lightly, and stuck under the holy tree and waited for the dawn.

As soon as the day dawned, Chen Mo threw out a regeneration technique, making the withered yellow part of the holy tree a lot greener.

As long as the power of the sacred wood is stronger, the more demons will not dare to attack.

Chen Mo took off the vest he had worn overnight, it was already in tatters that had been caught, and it was black and dirty with dog blood.

"Thank you, please leave it to me, and your weapons. If you don't deal with it quickly, it will quickly corrode and deteriorate to the point where it cannot be used. 」

Nicole took Chen Mo's vest and long sword, and then called the villagers to clean them.

"You've worked hard, too. Chen Mo saw that Nicole's face turned a little pale, knowing that after casting spells all night, her burden was also very large, but most of the people present were like this.

However, although the matter is over, the aftermath is about to begin. In addition to treating the wounded, they also have to dispose of the corpses of demons and purify the contaminated land.

"What about the casualties?"

Chen Mo saw that although the villagers hadn't slept all night, they were still busy with their work. It's just that Chen Mo can't interfere with these tasks.

"Six dead and more than twenty wounded, but this time the demons didn't take any of us. 」

Nicole's tone was filled with pride, they were no longer in the possession of demons.

"Uh-huh......

On Ghost Island, Chen Mo has encountered the most serious problem, at most, unemployment and social moral degradation. and the cat man village, which is between life and death, struggling to survive, there is really no comparison between the two.

But to be honest, the two are actually very similar.

If you compare politicians and conglomerates to demons, and people to cat-people villagers, the problem is the same. The difference is that you can only sit and wait for death on the one hand.

There is never a reason between the strong and the weak.

And Chen Mo today has experienced the sadness of what it means to be weak.

At the cost of blood.
