"Dad, would big brother and Uncle Su ng be in danger up there?"
The basent was pitch dark, and although they knew that bats use sonar to locate their targets, for safety, they still kept the lights off.
The basent was right under the central garden of the castle, and through a seam of a flipped piece of board, a few faint rays of light shone down, Zhao Yun stood on the stairs, squinting out one eye, barely able to see so of the outside situation.
Besides Chengcheng, the other people were also incredibly worried, Nangong and Nurse Hu each found a short dagger in the basent, clutching it tightly, ready to rush out to rescue at any mont.
Avitu was full of frustration, "Oh God, how unlucky, even in the mountains of Romania, such blood-sucking bats are extrely rare, why are there so many flying in today? If soone dies, not only Avitu's reputation would be ruined, but the entire village's tourism industry would definitely suffer a huge impact."
This village of a few dozen people relied mainly on tourism to survive.
"What should we do!" Avitu was so anxious that he was sweating from his forehead, Eibek Castle was located deep in the mountains, there was no signal, and even calling for help was impossible.
"There's no danger for now." Zhao Yun squinted out and gestured a 'safe' sign with his hand to the people behind, whispering, "The castle's tower is very sturdy, they are safe hiding inside."
"What the heck is going on." Avitu sighed, no one knew better than he did about the sturdiness of the tower, especially the two corner towers where Suming and Su ng were located, even if dieval trebuchets hit them, they might not be destroyed imdiately; these devices were originally defensive weapons, unless these bats had the power of large siege trebuchets, as long as they hid inside and blocked the doors and windows, they would be safe.
But the problem is, they can't stay in the basent and tower forever. The basent is relatively better with larger space, but the towers have only about two square ters, and both places have fatal problems: no water source and no food!
Who knows when these bats will leave! When animals hunt, once they have spotted their prey, they latch on fiercely.
"Let's wait a bit. Luckily we just had lunch..." As Zhao Yun was speaking, suddenly he leaned up, stood on his tiptoes, and exclaid softly, "What... what are they doing!"
"What happened?!" everyone in the basent asked in unison.
"These two mischievous boys, they ran out of the tower!" Zhao Yun's tone even changed a bit, "They're seeking death!"
Everyone in the basent was stunned.
Hiding in the tower, with stone walls for cover, no matter how nurous or ferocious the bats, they were just a bit larger flying animals, and couldn't possibly crash into the tower, even the wooden door at the back of the tower was hard to break through, people hiding inside were temporarily safe.
But rushing out was completely different, facing attacks from hundreds or thousands of bats from all directions, Suming and Su ng, no matter how powerful, were still humans, with only two hands and feet, how many bats could they kill? The bats wouldn't follow any chivalrous codes of conduct, lining up one by one for a fair fight!
"What can we do, what can we do!" Avitu was pacing in distress.
"Let's go help them!" Nurse Hu said, holding a large wooden shield.
"Wait a minute." It was Nangong Yan who was the calst at this mont, stopping Hu, "I trust Suming, if he took action, he must have his reasons."
"But..." Nurse Hu wanted to say sothing else, but Nangong Yan decisively interrupted her: "Think about it, since we've known Suming, when has he ever let everyone down? Hasn't he always won a beautiful battle under circumstances everyone thought impossible? Besides, the few of us absolutely cannot defeat the bats. Going out now, other than distracting the two of them and requiring their care, serves no purpose and would only drag them down."
"Yes, listen to Nangong." Zhao Yun said.
Nangong Yan appeared calm on the surface, but inside she was extrely nervous, fearing anything might happen to Suming. However, at this mont, reason told her that rushing out would only cause chaos, and the greatest support she could offer to Suming and Su ng was to protect herself well.
May the heavens bless them, and may this ti, like always, turn peril into safety!
anwhile, outside the castle, Suming and Su ng had already rushed out from the tower, backed against the castle walls, and started battling the bats.
Suming chose to rush out for a reason.
If the opponents were ordinary animals, even the 'normal-brained' bloodsucking bats from the zoo, he would choose to hide in the tower and wait for the bats to leave after realizing they couldn't catch any food.
But these bats, uncontrollable even by spiritual power, with chaotic and wild thoughts, were completely insane and couldn't be judged by normal thinking.
In essence, they were the 'zombies' of the animal kingdom. Except for seemingly lacking the ability to infect, they were not much different from actual zombies—mindless, fearless, and intent on shredding all the food they saw, expecting them to retreat in the face of difficulty was impossible.
The only option was to kill all of them.
Once the two appeared, they imdiately attracted the attention of the bats circling in the air, which then sward toward them from all directions.
These bats were indeed too large. Initially, hundreds of them circled above the castle, forming what looked like a layer of black fog from a distance. Now, as they all converged in one direction, the sky above the castle cleared instantly, but the area around the tower where Suming was, imdiately turned into a large black sphere.
From the outside, it was impossible to see what exactly was happening inside this huge black sphere.
The black sphere ford by the bats, as if having a life of its own, writhed continuously from afar, resembling a stomach wanting to grind and digest the two pieces of food inside.
Inside the black sphere, Suming and Su ng were not having an easy ti either.
After rushing out, Suming's Rhinoceros Energy Storage Sphere was still in effect, and without hesitation, he activated two more storage spheres.
One was the Alligator Turtle Energy Storage Ball, which compared to the previous Rhinoceros Skin Energy Storage Ball, had stronger defense. The biggest difference between the two was that the rhinoceros skin allowed more mobility, trading off so defense for maneuverability, suitable for use in mosquito-infested mountains and forests; clearly, defense was needed now.
The purpose of the Water Buffalo Energy Storage Ball, however, was not strength but tenacity, that is, endurance.
With Suming's own physical strength, killing a bat with three punches and two kicks was not difficult; the real challenge was how to maintain this fighting power consistently. Fighting is extrely physically demanding; even professional boxers only have two minutes per round and must rest afterwards.
With these three energy storage balls, Suming imdiately transford into a fully-powered humanoid little monster.
