Chapter 47 Death Crisis
The unexpected attack made everyone terrified.
But this matter cannot be blamed entirely on Xu Qingwan.
Because no one could have imagined that such a monster would be hidden in the statue of the land god.
He had a white face, black hair, a hunched back, and his body was covered in sticky blood. His pupils, which were not much different from those of humans, were filled with ferocity and violence.
It was actually an ape monster! After the monster succeeded in its attack, it did not pursue, but instead laid on all fours, continuously making creepy roars from its mouth, as if it was observing the fighting power of Wei Changtian and the others.
There were broken bones and feathers scattered all over the ground behind it. It was probably the pheasant monster that the crowd had never even seen.
"Shine! Shine! Shine!"
Zhou Cheng and the two constables drew their swords one after another, while Wei Changtian took a step forward and reached out to catch Xu Qingwan who was flying backwards.
Judging from his complexion, he's fine. He won't die.
Without asking nonsense like "Are you okay?", Wei Changtian quickly took out a bottle of healing medicine that he ate like candy every day and stuffed it into her arms. Then he pulled out the scalpel, stepped in front of Xu Qingwan, and formed a pincer attack with Zhou Cheng.
The two constables are of the ninth rank and their combat power is almost negligible.
Zhou Cheng is at the sixth rank, and he himself is at the seventh rank. Since the ape monster opposite him was able to injure Xu Qingwan with one blow, his strength must be at least at the sixth rank.
Damn, where is this wild chicken with less than five years of experience? ? ?
Wei Changtian's expression became more and more ugly. After exchanging a glance with Zhou Cheng, they both tacitly agreed not to act rashly.
Since they don't know the opponent's background, they would rather let the monster escape.
But unfortunately, the ape monster may not be willing to escape.
Maybe it felt that the people in front of it were no match for it, and after pausing for a few moments, it finally attacked again, targeting the tall constable.
You still know how to pick on the weak first? Wei Changtian's pupils shrank, and he and Zhou Cheng ran straight towards the ape monster, shouting at the same time: "Hide far away and shoot with crossbows!"
"clang!!"
Zhou Cheng swung his sword and dangerously stopped the ape monster at the last moment. The tall constable who saved his life did not hesitate and ran away immediately. He did not stop until he was more than ten feet away. He quickly took out the crossbow and began to load the arrow and aim.
The same goes for the short constable.
Both of them knew very well that with their abilities, they would not only be of no help, but would even be a hindrance.
Without them, it was indeed much easier to fight Zhou Cheng and Wei Changtian.
"Bang! Boom!"
“Swish, swish, swish!”
The two men and the monster fought together.
Zhou Cheng must have practiced some kind of swordsmanship, and his sword strikes were extremely fast and powerful. In addition, he was at the sixth level, so he naturally served as the main attacker.
As Wei Changtian had learned the Fuyao Step from Xu Qingwan and was slightly better in terms of physical skills, he acted as a restraining force.
You advance and I retreat, you retreat and I advance, the two of them always maintain a very high frequency of attack on the ape monster, and their cooperation becomes more and more tacit.
With the help of the occasional arrows shot from a distance, he was finally able to suppress the ape monster, which was as powerful as the fifth level.
What a pity.
If Xu Qingwan hadn't been injured, it wouldn't have been impossible to kill the monster on the spot.
"roar!!"
“Swish!”
Gravel was flying everywhere, dust was flying everywhere, the sound of the scimitar breaking through the air and the evil roar mixed together, disturbing the air of the entire forest.
The fight became easier and easier for Wei Changtian, but it became more and more difficult for the ape demon.
It seemed that it also realized that its situation was not good. After being stabbed in the back again, it suddenly changed its fighting style, almost completely giving up the defense and attack against Wei Changtian, and turned its full attention to dealing with Zhou Cheng, who posed a greater threat.
The two were caught off guard that a beast would change its tactics during a fight.
Zhou Cheng's footwork was weak to begin with, so at this moment he could only block and retreat at the same time, and he was instantly in danger.
Although Wei Changtian, who was standing next to him, had used all his might to attack the ape monster and indeed left a trail of blood on its body, his lethality was limited.
He really wanted to attack the ape monster's vital points, but the beast was not stupid. It just let Wei Changtian cut its back and chest where the skin was thick, but it protected its throat and head very tightly.
The advantages and disadvantages of both sides changed in the blink of an eye, but it cannot be said to be a reversal.
The ape demon's style of attacking one person has both advantages and disadvantages. As long as Zhou Cheng can hold out for a while longer, Wei Changtian will be able to eventually kill it even with one blow after another.
The situation once again fell into another stalemate.
Wei Changtian and Zhou Cheng were busy attacking and defending respectively, and neither of them noticed the sinister look in the ape monster's eyes, nor did they notice Xu Qingwan who had been seriously injured earlier.
…
At this stage of the battle, both sides of the monsters have become blood-thirsty and are determined to fight to the death.
The two constables looked at the three dark shadows fighting each other in the distance. They had no chance to shoot arrows to help and could only stand by and worry.
They knew very well that it was too late to get help now, so they could only place all their hopes on the two Silver Leaf Masters at Liuye.
If we win, everyone gets credit.
If you lose, you will die.
As for escaping secretly...their fate would probably be more tragic than dying at the hands of a monster.
The palms of the two men holding the bows and crossbows were full of sweat, but Wei Changtian and Zhou Cheng didn't care about being nervous at this time, and dared not be distracted in the slightest.
In a battle of this level, if you lose focus for even a moment, the price could be your life.
"clang!!!"
His hairy fist smashed hard on the blade in front of him. Zhou Cheng held the handle tightly and finally controlled the wildly vibrating scimitar, preventing the weapon from flying.
Damn, that’s too much force!
He cursed inwardly, but his pupils immediately contracted sharply.
The ape demon suddenly went crazy and ignored Wei Changtian's stab at its ribs from the side, and rushed towards him again at a faster speed.
"Grass!!"
Zhou Cheng roared angrily, knowing that he would not be able to block it this time, so he simply dragged his sword and rolled to the side in an attempt to avoid the attack.
I did hide away.
However, when he rolled about ten feet away and looked back in great embarrassment, his face instantly turned pale.
It turned out that the ape demon didn't come to chase him at all, but rushed directly towards Xu Qingwan who happened to be behind him!
“Puff!”
One third of the slender scimitar was embedded in the monster's ribs. This was the most serious damage Wei Changtian had inflicted on the ape monster since the fight began.
But the ape demon still turned a blind eye to this, and didn't even look at Wei Changtian. He continued to rush forward with a long sword hanging on his body, as if the only thing in his eyes was Xu Qingwan who could barely hold up her body.
“Snap!”
The crossbow fell to the ground, and the two constables stood there with their eyes wide open as if they were petrified, feeling an extremely chill in their hearts.
This was not accidental, but something the ape demon had planned long ago! It knew that it was unlikely to be able to get rid of the two men, but it was unwilling to just leave like that, so it set its sights on the seriously injured Xu Qingwan!
Move the battlefield, find the right opportunity, and strike with all your strength.
A monster actually has such a mind!
The two of them felt like they were falling into an icy cave, and on the other side, Xu Qingwan's face also showed despair.
The punch that she couldn't have stopped even in her prime was getting closer and closer. Her beautiful eyes slowly closed, and countless thoughts flooded her mind.
I have saved 1,236 taels and 4 cents of silver, and I haven't spent it yet. What a pity...
My parents will be very sad to hear the news of my death...
Many colleagues will come to the funeral...
Did Wei Changtian really just drink with the courtesan that day...
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound in my ears, and a huge impact came from my chest.
Is it over?
It doesn't hurt that much...
wrong!
Xu Qingwan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly opened her eyes and looked in disbelief at Wei Changtian who was gritting his teeth and holding on to her, trying to roll to the side.
"you……"
"Bang!!!"
Just as she uttered a word, the impact several times stronger than before came again.
Xu Qingwan opened her mouth in shock, watching the ape demon's fist hit Wei Changtian's back hard.
“Swish!”
The two of them hugged each other and slid on the ground for about seven or eight feet, leaving a long trail of blood.
Wei Changtian was still vomiting blood crazily, and his face was as white as a sheet of paper.
Xu Qingwan endured the severe pain and looked up at him, with a tenderness in her eyes that no one had ever seen before.
The ape demon pounced on the two again.
It leaped high into the air and punched down again.
