Chapter 43: Big Victory(1/2)
The panicked exploration team members were all attracted by Zhenjin’s laughter.
Zhen Jin immediately shouted: "With me here, why are you panicking? No matter how many flying squirrels there are, they will only be our food. Follow my orders, reorganize your formation, and kill all these flying squirrels."
"Yes, sir!" Everyone responded loudly.
The front quickly recovered.
Zhen Jin stared at the distance, his pupils shrinking involuntarily. His physical quality was a bit higher and he could see more clearly than ordinary people. At this time, with a quick glance, he saw seven flying squirrel leaders, and hundreds of ordinary flying squirrels swarming out.
.
"I'm afraid all the flying squirrels have moved in?"
"Sure enough, animal nature is hard to predict."
Zhenjin had no intention of retreating, and this situation was also expected.
Before the hunt, Zhen Jin and others had predicted many scenarios.
The worst-case scenario is that the first time cyanobacteria attract flying squirrels, the entire colony is disturbed.
Now Zhenjin has won a small victory, which has improved his prestige, consolidated his position, and improved the morale of the entire team.
It can be said that after the previous small victory, the entire team looked completely new compared to before.
This is already good.
"Get ready, shoot." Zhen Jin shouted.
When everyone heard the order, their faces were grim, and they nocked arrows and raised their bows.
As soon as a thin screen of arrows passed by, the flying squirrels immediately fell to the ground. There were many flying squirrels attacking and they were very dense, so the results of this salvo were the largest in history.
However, the flying squirrel group was relatively large, and not a single flying squirrel leader was killed. Instead, the flying squirrel group was aroused to be more ferocious, bursting out with a squeaking sound, and the speed of impact seemed to be faster.
Many people's faces turned pale.
After this round of volley fire, they had a clear view of the situation. There were many flying squirrels, and even if they shot seven or eight times, they might not be able to kill them all.
Moreover, with this distance and the speed of the flying squirrel's attack, even five or six volleys, let alone seven or eight volleys, would not be able to make it in time.
Soon, a second salvo was fired.
The third salvo was fired.
"Fight freely!" Zhen Jin ordered afterward.
The arrow screen makes up for the lack of accuracy to a large extent. But now that the distance is extremely close, the archer's accuracy will be greatly increased, and the salvo will limit the performance. Especially for some excellent archers.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
The flying arrows pierced the sky one after another and shot into the rats.
The rats chattered wildly and were extremely ferocious. Their numbers seemed so large that they did not suffer much loss at all.
The swarm of rats was so close that they brought tremendous pressure. Many people could not help but have their hearts pounding, their movements deformed, and they lost their normal skills. Some people nocked their arrows several times before locating them, and some people lost all their arrows and only released the empty string.
Huang Zao used all his subconscious strength to break the arms of the short bow, and angrily threw away the broken bow in his hand.
"This broken bow!" He cursed, and immediately took out a short bow.
Because shortbows were crudely made with this situation in mind, everyone had a spare shortbow.
As for the crossbow, its rate of fire cannot be compared with that of the shortbow. When the battle starts, there is no time to re-string it, so it can only be put aside.
Zhenjin shoots arrows continuously, with perfect accuracy!
But the power of the short bow is too small and the weight is too low.
After shooting several times, Zhen Jin clearly felt that the short bow in his hand became loose. He immediately threw away the short bow in his hand and replaced it with another spare bow.
In a short period of time, Zhen Jin had already replaced three short bows. He alone killed more than twenty flying squirrels.
But there are still a lot of flying squirrels left, at least fifty.
This is more than five times the number of exploration team members.
Forget about ordinary flying squirrels, the key point is that there are seven flying squirrel leaders in total, and none of them died, which is a headache.
The powerful iron arrows fired by the crossbow can't hurt these flying squirrel leaders, let alone the short bow.
Zhen Jin felt like there was a huge boulder weighing on his heart. He knew very well that once this group of rats was allowed to charge in, the exploration team would suffer heavy losses.
The flying squirrel leader who rushed at the front entered the range of Zhenjin's flying dagger.
For a moment, the young man's eyes flashed sharply, and his arms suddenly shook.
The dagger pierced the air so fast that everyone only saw a flash of light.
The light accurately hit the flying squirrel leader. The flying squirrel leader was originally flying in the air. After being pierced by the dagger, it was thrown away at a faster speed. After falling to the ground far away, it remained motionless.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this scene, but they had no time to cheer.
Because the rat swarm didn't stop at all, the rest of the flying squirrel leaders rushed into the front line.
They are all bronze monsters. After crashing into the "exploration team", they use their claws and huge incisors to bite wildly.
The "exploration team members" who were brutally murdered rushed to the end, and grass blades and branches flew from the corpses, but there was no blood plasma or minced meat.
It turns out that the people standing in the front are all puppets.
These puppets were stuffed with straw and made into human shapes, and then used a makeshift potion made from purple stems to deceive the flying squirrel's sense of smell.
Through dissection, Cang Xu had long discovered that the flying squirrel's eyesight was not outstanding and it mainly relied on its sense of smell.
Momonga's intelligence is not very high, so these puppets successfully attracted a wave of attacks.
A large number of ordinary flying squirrels also pounced on these vegetation puppets. Some puppets could attract more than a dozen flying squirrels to attack, while some as few as five or six.
Seeing the rats gathering together, Zhen Jin decisively ordered: "Set fire!"
Zidi had been preparing for this moment before the war started. She immediately took action and threw out the potion.
The potion bottle was smashed on the stone, and the potion inside fell to the grass, mixing with the previous potion. In an instant, a weak flame burned, and then the flame expanded into a fire snake, jumped up, spread over, and
The front line instantly burned into a wall of fire.
The puppet in the wall of fire immediately burned and emitted thick smoke.
Some flying squirrels were burned to the point of squeaking and screaming, while more were choked by the thick smoke and shed tears. Their keen sense of smell doubled their pain.
Almost all the flying squirrels fled in panic.
The pressure on the exploration team plummeted.
Because even if there were still flying squirrels rushing towards them, there were not many of them, and they still fled to avoid the flames.
They were greeted by arrows.
Almost half of the flying squirrels were hit by arrows and fell on the way.
The three of them, White Bud, Yellow Algae, and Blue Algae, performed very stably.
Zhen Jin did not take action, he was as still as a statue.
Suddenly, a flying squirrel leader broke through the wall of fire and appeared in his field of vision.
Without any hesitation, almost at the same time, Zhenjin's flying dagger shot out, hitting the flying squirrel leader in the eye.
After the flying squirrel leader fell to the ground, he rolled a few times and died immediately.
But just as the flying squirrel leader fell to the ground, the remaining flying squirrel leaders rushed out of the wall of fire.
None of them were on fire, ordinary flames couldn't do anything to them, and even thick smoke only made them uncomfortable.
The flying squirrel leaders all rushed over.
Seeing this scene, Cang Xu and Zidi changed their expressions.
There are as many as four remaining flying squirrel leaders!
These are all bronze-level monsters.
Although Blue Algae and Yellow Algae are both bronze-level warriors, it is very dangerous to deal with a flying squirrel boss one-on-one.
Humans and beasts are different.
Most of the combat power of human extraordinary people comes from the use of fighting spirit and magic.
But in this environment, there is no way to stimulate fighting spirit.
Although fighting spirit can also subtly enhance the physical fitness of human beings, this kind of physical fitness is very poor compared with that of Warcraft.
Compared with wild beasts, humans are born with delicate skin and fragile bones.
Of course, yellow algae and cyanobacteria cannot compare to these flying squirrel leaders based on their own quality. You must know that even after the flying squirrel leaders die, ordinary swords cannot cut their skin and bones.
Cyanobacteria and yellow algae are like this, but other ordinary members are no match for the flying squirrel leader.
"Once the flying squirrel leaders rush into the crowd, it will inevitably cause huge casualties. The only hope lies in Zhenjin. It depends on whether the Lord Templar can kill these flying squirrel leaders quickly!" Cang Xu's eyes flashed with sadness,
He has a very thorough understanding of the situation at this moment.
"Now is not the time to continue to hide your strength, my lord." Cang Xu stared at Zhen Jin and encouraged him from the bottom of his heart.
To be continued...
