Chapter 91 Night Raid by the Nightwalker
As the monster's claws drew closer, the night-walking monster's seductive voice rang out once more.
Jiang Baiyue shouted, ordering the mercenaries to fire into the sky: "Get up!"
"What's going on... damn it! Get up!"
"Physical attacks are useless, use superpowers!"
"I don't want to live anymore, I don't want to live anymore..."
The man carrying the long sword was awakened, his blood-red eyes wide open, bulging as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
Yin Kela was awakened by the sound and the hot blood on her face. A white light shield instantly appeared around her, which had become her instinct for self-preservation.
In the event of an unexpected accident, immediately activate your talent to summon a protective barrier to safeguard yourself.
She then immediately looked at her teammate on night watch, only to find that her teammate had his head drooping and his eyes almost closed.
She kicked the Jin Ke La next to her, and then woke up the other teammates.
"Get up! The monsters are attacking!"
Some people woke up feeling a surge of fear, and one person's stress level was already very high. They couldn't resist the temptation and pushed over their teammates before rushing towards the Night Stalker like a mother.
What's even more chilling is that this person was smiling, and didn't even wake up from the pain after his internal organs were ripped out.
The nocturnal monster smacked its lips, and the sound of it eating was amplified by a loudspeaker and spread in all directions.
Even from a distance, Jiang Baiyue felt as if the voice was right next to her ear. She didn't even need to check her stress level; she fed herself the medicine without hesitation.
She had two pills in her mouth at the end, but at that moment, no matter how bitter the pills were, nothing was more important than staying awake.
Jiang Baiyue took out a miner's helmet, put it on, and turned on the light. She saw a monster with long, thin limbs, a flat head, and a completely black body sitting astride the wall.
The night-walking monster, illuminated by the direct light, immediately closed the three holes in its head that had been wide open, and its seductive tone turned low and painful.
"The Night Stalker has come in! Fight it! Why is this fatso sleeping like a log? Wake up!"
Some people were kicked several times by their teammates before they woke up. Once they woke up, they couldn't help but scream. It took their teammates giving them some pills to calm them down.
"Get closer together, don't scatter."
"Little Rain, Little Rain, come here quickly, come to Mommy's side, don't run around, don't...run around."
Jiang Baiyue was already very experienced. She quickly threw oil-soaked rags into empty, deserted areas, and then threw torches into those areas.
The tarpaulin was quickly set ablaze, and the hunter's camp was brightly lit, especially the area near the main gate.
The night-stalkers' voices changed, and they waved their limbs, seemingly unaccustomed to the situation, and began to avoid the burning flames.
However, even as the flames intensified, they endured the scorching heat to squeeze in, their claws plunging into the fire without being burned. In fact, some of the rags were even extinguished by being trampled out.
Physical attacks were indeed useless against the night monsters. At this moment, the mercenaries could only partially surround Jiang Baiyue for protection, guarding against other players while holding torches for illumination.
Swish, swish—!
A nocturnal monster suddenly crawled in from behind the hunter's camp, its long legs sweeping through the crowd, making the already disorganized group even more chaotic.
Several groups of people were swept away, and some were thrown into the hands of other night-stalking monsters that had crawled in. The night-stalking monsters grabbed the people and laughed excitedly.
The laughter was demonic and terrifying, carrying a seductive power. The eyes of several desperate players slowly became vacant, and they gave up struggling.
Pfft!
Another nocturnal monster pierced a little boy who hadn't kept up with his parents' movements and was trying to avoid danger with one of its claws.
Blood gushed from the little boy's abdomen like a fountain, and he cried out in pain for his parents to help.
"Ah! My child! I'll fight you to the death!"
The child's mother screamed in despair and, grabbing an axe, lunged forward to hack at the night monster's black claws.
The night-walking monster's black claws were as soft as rubber; they would bounce back and recover after being slashed or struck.
The child's mother was crying and sneezing. She threw down her weapon and opened her mouth to bite. The Night Stalker tilted its head and let out an arrogant middle-aged man's laugh. It used its other paw to flick the child's mother away as if she were a toy.
With a look of sympathy, Yin Kela took a deep breath, turned around and leaned against Jin Kela, deftly throwing a lightning ball at the Nightwalker.
The lightning ball crackled and popped, moving at great speed. The night monster, carrying the screaming little boy, crashed into the lightning ball.
No! My son!
The smell of burning human flesh spread, the little boy was electrocuted, and the body disappeared instantly.
The night monster twitched its claws in pain, let out a beastly howl, and swung its claws at other nearby players.
Yin Kela was shocked and ran a few steps forward before her teammates pulled her back. She felt a pang of pain in her heart and wanted to stop them, but it was too late.
"Keep throwing them! What's with the kindness?"
The child's mother tried to save her child, but it was too late. The incident happened in an instant. She rushed forward without thinking and was stunned by the sparks that exploded around the lightning ball.
Fishing Light fired several wind blades, forcing back a small night-stalking monster, and shouted angrily, "Who brought this guy? Drag him away! Can't you keep him in check? Don't let him drag us down!"
No one around claimed the child, except for a middle-aged man who appeared to be the child's father, who desperately dodged the attacks of the night-stalking monster and rushed over to carry his woman on his back.
Some people were kind-hearted and helped cover for them, throwing water balloons to drive away the night monster.
The battle raged on, with the night monsters crawling toward the camp one after another.
They even used their companions as shields, using the nocturnal creatures in front of them to protect themselves from the scorching light.
Unfortunately, their semi-solid bodies are also opaque.
Several people without superpowers watched the approaching night monsters, trembling as they held up torches for illumination and threw torches and other light sources into the monster horde.
Jiang Baiyue's current source energy limit is 1000, so she no longer hesitates to use her superpowers and throws fireballs at the night monster's big flat head.
Some people were good at observing the situation and noticed that Jiang Baiyue's side was aggressive and the area in front of her was open, indicating that many of the Nightwalkers had been forced back and killed. So they moved closer to her.
"Tch. You think you can shirk your responsibilities just because you have a powerful backer? When your source energy runs out, just absorb energy crystals to replenish it. Don't even think about taking advantage of me."
Yu Huo looked disdainful and mocked the person hiding behind Jiang Baiyue.
However, he could also tell who was stronger. At this time, it was not something that could be resisted by individual strength alone. He led his teammates to approach Jiang Baiyue and the others, taunting them with sharp words and forcing them to contribute.
Yin Kela and the others moved along with the fishing lights, saying, "Each of you is in charge of one direction, and no one is allowed to slack off!"
Yin Kela had two reasons: first, he didn't want his group to be taken advantage of; second, if they were going to be consumed, they had to be consumed together.
Otherwise, once the crisis is over, and we've exhausted our supernatural resources while these people still have energy left, we'll be easy prey for them.
Jiang Baiyue listened to the surrounding situation while keeping her hands busy. She was surrounded by mercenaries, so she wasn't afraid of being stabbed in the back.
The Night Stalker has low health, only 150 HP, and its attack methods are limited, consisting of slashing, stabbing, and bewitching.
However, there were simply too many of them, gradually encroaching on and squeezing the space in which Jiang Baiyue and the others could move.
In the end, all they could do was stand still and attack, desperately defending their last piece of land.
Every now and then, someone would succumb to temptation and leave the defensive perimeter to die. The others, already on edge, had no time to help and could only watch helplessly as these people went to their deaths.
They numbly thought that at least these people weren't dragging them to their deaths like madmen.
The soil beneath the ground was stained red with blood, and the stench of blood mixed with the stench of monsters constantly assaulted everyone's fragile nerves.
