Chapter 1129: Gathering of Hundred Demons (1)
These resentful spirits are not in the form of children, and most of them are adults of normal size.
I don't know if it's because of the wind and snow on their bodies, which makes these resentful spirits seem more "real" than those guys who were infinitely close to translucent before.
Well...... It's more like a group of living people who suddenly appeared out of the snowstorm, and I can only tell from their erratic forms that these guys are actually resentful spirits as well.
The moment they appeared in my field of vision, they began to speed towards us, which made me suspect that these resentful spirits had the same field of vision as mine.
At this time, Dawn had already thrown several flying spears in succession, piercing the three resentful spirits on the trunk of the tree like Tai Sui just now.
However, these resentful spirits that were pierced were not the clumsy bodies of Tai Sui, and it only took them a short time to break free from the trunk.
These resentful spirits have now surrounded us, and it is impossible to run, and I have no intention of running.
I've fought these resentful spirits five or six times before, and I still have some knowledge of their methods, and these guys want to pose a real threat to me, unless it's an absolute numerical advantage.
The only thing I want to avoid right now is that they suck my energy, but in their current state, they don't have that in mind.
Soon, more resentful spirits rushed towards us, and Amy, Chenxi, and I protected Duan Xiaoxiao in the center in a triangular formation, and soon those resentful spirits approached us.
The three of us are considered to be the top combat power in the team, and we will not be intimidated in this kind of hard physical confrontation.
Dawn, in particular, had his talent for melee combat as a Niki being fully exploited at this moment, and we were soon able to knock these resentful spirits to the ground.
These guys didn't grow much except for the extra wind and snow on their bodies, and I unceremoniously cut them into thick water one by one......
The short encounter just now only took less than a few minutes, and although the battle was relatively easy to narrate, I knew very well in my heart that what we were just facing was just a drop in the bucket of the "legion" of resentful spirits in the entire Qinhuai Mountain Range, and once these things formed hundreds of group units, it would be a very terrifying force.
And the situation at Life 2 should be similar to what I just thought......
Resentful spirits and Tai Sui...... These two kinds of ghosts bred by energy are really a headache for me, although their energy is not superior in individual combat, but the key is that the number is simply endless, if they are really secretly arranged by the moon spirit, it means that the voodoo occupation of Dongkou Province has long been confident.
The snow still hasn't abated in the slightest, and although we've temporarily resolved the dozen or so resentful spirits, I can still hear quite a lot of rustling sounds in the nearby woods.
These sounds were 100% also made by the resentful spirits and Tai Sui, but now there were no more similar creatures pounced on us.
Either they haven't noticed us yet, or they're actually being diverted to an important target by the Moonling...... Hence our selective neglect.
I feel that the latter is more likely, because from the situation I have fought with them before, whether it is the resentful spirit or Tai Sui, the perception of these guys is definitely not to be underestimated, at least much stronger than ordinary people.
I can't help but start worrying about our people and the situation at Life Two again, maybe these guys are heading that way right now!
It's also worth mentioning that when we were fending off the siege of the dozen or so resentful spirits, I noticed that these guys had indeed lost interest in our energy sucking, and I even felt that their target was not actually me, Amy, or Dawn at all, but ...... Duan Xiaoxiao who is protected by us!
Because the details of the fight caught my attention, usually when I fought these resentful spirits, they would always attack my neck in every possible way, but this time they barely made any defensive moves.
This can only be explained by the fact that their attention is attracted to other things, and this thing that attracts them is Duan Xiaoxiao.
That's right, now Duan Xiaoxiao herself is still extremely abnormal, although she has now temporarily returned to normal, no one can guarantee whether the Moon Spirit's energy control will work on her again in the future.
In fact, I have secretly made plans in my heart, if we can get out of danger and go back safely this time, then I will definitely focus on protecting Duan Xiaoxiao.
And this "protection" is actually more similar to house arrest, at least I can't let Duan Xiaoxiao move around as she did before, I not only need her to be in a place where there is no escape, but also send a team of people to monitor her twenty-four hours a day!
......
"Chirp...... Tweet ......"
A series of bird calls suddenly crossed our heads.
It's all too familiar to me!
It's the sound of a bhikshu bird!
And the bhikshu bird is closely related to the moon spirit!
Amy and Chenxi are also people who have seen the interaction between the moon spirit and the bhikshu bird many times, so they also thought of it for the first time, and Amy even took out the Gu musket.
However, I didn't feel any interference from the moon spirit's energy.
But......
The threat of the bhikshu bird is getting closer and closer!
That's right!
The screams are concentrating!
And the number is growing!
I have seen countless cases of group attacks by bhikshus, most of whom prefer to form an arrow-shaped phalanx in the air like a group of fighter jets, and then dive down directly from mid-air to launch a surprise attack on the target with great speed and impact.
Like the resentful spirits, perhaps a single bhikshu bird cannot pose a substantial threat to us, but now that they are collectively swooping, this power is infinitely magnified......
And for this terrifying impact, even the monitor lizards can't stop it!
"Get down!" I yelled.
Amy and Chenxi immediately pressed Duan Xiaoxiao to the snow, and at the same time, I used the Gu Musket to sweep the Gu Fire directly above our heads.
As soon as the Gu Fire came out, I heard a series of wailing sounds of "chirping", and several Bhikkhu birds burning with Gu Fire smashed directly beside me.
When I fired, I also lay flat on the ground in a face-up position, and then I saw more bhikshu birds rushing down through the snow mist and Gu fire.
"Stick, stick, stick!" I repeated.
Although the impact of these bhikshus on ground targets is quite terrifying, in my long experience, they do not attack places close to the ground.
To put it bluntly, as long as we are all close to the ground, we can minimize the damage we will suffer, or at least avoid the first wave of edge.
The crackling sound of the branches also joined, and I felt like I was scratched by some sharp claws from my scalp to the back of my neck to my back, and my clothes naturally didn't have to think about it, and now it must be the same as calling Hanako.
The first wave of scraping lasted for more than a minute, and then I heard the sound of the air tearing away from us, and I knew that the first swooping down array of bhikshus had risen into the air.
I turned over and jumped up as a harrier on the spot, only to see that Amy was protecting Duan Xiaoxiao's whole body under me, and Chenxi was already standing up, observing the air above at this time.
But now that the snow and fog have become heavier, visibility has begun to shrink even further, and even objects from a meter away now appear a little blurry.
So don't even think about seeing the scene in the air.
Fortunately, the compass on my opener is still functional, at least we don't have to worry about losing our direction now.
I was just about to continue moving with them when I heard the call of a second flock of bhikshus.
This time the bhikshu is more dense!
"Xiao Chen, they're here again!" Amy pointed to a big tree next to me with three people hugging and laughing while protecting Duan Xiaoxiao under her, and shouted, "Find a way for us to hide in!"
This trunk is already in a semi-dry state, which means that even if the inside of the trunk is not hollow, it has rotted and can be completely hidden.
I immediately jumped up and ran towards the trunk, drew my knife and stabbed the middle of the trunk hard, and when I almost pierced into the middle of the trunk, I pulled it horizontally, and then pulled out the rotten wood in the middle of the trunk.
I easily opened a hole, but when I looked inside, I realized that the trunk was actually empty, it turned out that this place had been inhabited before, and I even saw some simple tools.
There is an area of seven or eight square meters inside this tree trunk for people to settle in, and I saw that there was no other danger inside, so I turned around and yelled and motioned for Amy to take Duan Xiaoxiao to retreat in first.
I myself and Dawn broke off for them.
At this time, the second group of bhikshu birds had already appeared, and unlike those resentful spirits and Tai Sui just now, I felt that this large number of bhikshu birds this time had regarded us as the primary target of attack, otherwise it would not have been possible to launch two attacks in succession.
I'm sure if we had been lying on the ground this time, we would have suffered much worse than before, because the number of birds has obviously increased several times over, and even a tenth of the flock will not be able to stand it.
What's more, since they are purposeful, it means that someone is manipulating, and these bhikshu birds should have been specially sent to deal with us.
Sure enough, soon several lines of bhikshu birds broke through the snow mist and stabbed down, and the targets were clearly me and Dawn at the front.
Dawn did not panic in the slightest, he first pierced the bodies of more than a dozen bhikshu birds with precision with two tree spears like a lamb skewer, and then quickly intercepted the two bhikshu queues on our right with a homemade leather net.
The interception method on my side was relatively simple and rude, and I directly used the Gu musket to cover the bhikshu bird on the left half.
What surprised me was that these bhikshu birds were not afraid of Gu fire at all, like moths to a fire, they rushed forward one after another, and a few bhikshu birds even flapped their wings on fire and pounced on my head, making me feel the sting of a Gu fire myself.
"Retreat!" I shouted at the dawn.
Dawn nodded, and then used her spear to block the attack of the bhikshu bird on my left, and then jumped backwards into the hollow of the tree, and I myself dodged backwards......
It was at this moment that I saw a fourth enemy emerge from the snowstorm.
Well......
That's right, the fourth.
The resentful spirit is the first, the Tai Sui is the second, the bhikshu bird is the third, and as for the semi-infected who attacked us like crazy just now, I will not count them for now.
This fourth type of enemy ...... It's a wolf!
White-haired wolf!
It's been a long time.
In fact, in the second half of our time on the island, the number of encounters with this white-haired wolf has been much less, and in the later stage, it is almost extinct, I once thought that these fierce wolves that were affected by the Gu worm virus and turned into white hair have become extinct, but I didn't expect to appear here now!
Bhikshu birds and white-haired wolves seem to be "regular customers" on the island.
In addition to these two animals, the most dangerous Gu creatures on the island should be the upper-nosed monkey!
Creak!
A few monkey cries instantly came from the example on the side of the white-haired wolf that had just appeared, and only two large back-nosed monkeys were seen above the tree trunk.
Grass, this is really a gathering of hundreds of demons, it feels like all the Gu things on the island that were used as experiments by the Blue Bird Company have been moved to this Dongkou Province, so it means that other creatures I have seen on the island may also appear one after another, even if I don't see it, it will most likely appear here.
The white-haired wolf who appeared first was searching around with its nose twitching, obviously looking for us, and I quickly retreated to the trunk of the tree after the dawn before this guy noticed me, and then I blocked the entrance to the tree hole with the only small iron table in the trunk.
The cave was dimly lit, but it didn't affect my vision, and we were all out of breath now.
I made a silent gesture to the others as I began to observe what was around me.
The tools in the hollow were rudimentary and scarce, and after looking around, I found that most of them were simple tools made of wood cut by themselves, such as small wooden shovels, wooden mallets, and small wooden dishes for eating.
These things weren't enough to determine the identity of the people here, but I quickly determined from the smell who the "owner" was.
That's right...... It's semi-infected.
Because no matter how these semi-infected people hide themselves, the strange smell on their bodies will never be eliminated, it seems that my previous guess is indeed correct, there are far more than the two semi-infected settlements in the Qinhuai Mountains in the Holy Maiden Peak and no man's land.
