Chapter 248 The hunt begins! The monster appears!
The monster in front of him had an unfathomable aura.
Its ferocious and burly body gradually stopped, and its head poked forward slightly.
It subconsciously pretended to be dead like a human, hiding its restless spiritual power.
Shadow beasts are not afraid of pain and lack emotions, but they still have the instincts of wild beasts.
Instinct is their way of survival.
As a predator, it took a few steps back and bumped into the door behind it.
"!!!"
With a bang!
A half-illusory tentacle suddenly rushed out and smashed over like a ferocious giant python!
Its head sank into the wall, and the wall behind it suddenly shattered!
Then! The second punch!
Steel!
Accompanied by an even stronger black gas, in an instant, the five-meter-high house behind it was shattered and dust flew everywhere!
call--
In the ruins of the collapsed house, all that could be seen was a broken and incomplete upper body and a black bear head covered in blood.
[You killed the Big Bear Shadow Deer and gained 500 inspiration points. ]
Chen Qi wiped the black blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the corpse at his feet:
"Why run? Can't I attract you?"
As he spoke, a small black tentacle slowly grew longer from behind Chen Qi and picked up the wriggling shadow on the ground and the shadow core.
"It's not satisfying enough..."
Chen Qi glanced at the wriggling shadow in his hand and silently looked towards the end of the street.
Due to the obstruction of vision caused by the B-level rift, his vision was limited and he could not see the creatures on the street clearly, but he could hear their heartfelt cries for help.
It can be heard that the residents of the town are probably fleeing!
"Am I that scary?"
Chen Qi put the things into his backpack and spat out a mouthful of bright red blood.
In this battle, Chen Qi rarely displayed a special ability, which was his Shadow Charm Lv3.
Shadow Charm lv3, can cover itself with a layer of dark aura in the dark, and at the same time, it will emit some aura that attracts shadow beasts.
Relying on this ability, coupled with the characteristics of night monsters and the darkness of the B-level crack, even in the light of the lantern, Chen Qi itself is like a black hole that absorbs light, bottomless.
The daylight lantern, combined with the charm of shadow, greatly reduces the difficulty of the rift.
However, the power of the Daytime Lantern and its own aura also caused considerable trouble.
Chen Qi originally thought that as long as he walked on the street with a lantern, he would attract the anger of the shadow beasts and besiege him.
In this way, he can sit back and wait, playing a tower defense game, killing the attacking shadow beasts one by one, thereby gaining a large number of inspiration points.
However, things went against his wishes. After activating the Touch of the Remnant Fire, coupled with the status of Monster in the Night, he held the Lantern in the Daytime, and no Shadow Beast approached him at all.
To be exact, no human dared to approach him. Even the big and strong pirates who had fought in the battlefield ran away the moment they saw him.
"Why? Is my posture too scary?"
Chen Qi looked back at the remaining touch of fire on its back.
It got bigger and thicker.
Previously, when he was at the second level, he had not yet unleashed the full power of Touch of the Remnant.
After the third stage, the power of Touch of the Remnant Fire can be fully exerted.
These tentacles suddenly grew in size, reaching a terrifying three meters in length, and a staggering fifty centimeters in diameter, the width of a human head.
As the source of spiritual power grows, all attributes of the night increase.
These eight black, thick and ferocious tentacles kept dancing behind him, which was extremely terrifying!
Coupled with the deep black dyeing of Shadow Charm Lv3, Chen Qi looked like a scary monster walking in the night with a lantern.
He himself can also feel the effects of his lowered spirits, becoming more impulsive and his inner desires more easily aroused.
"We must find a way to attract those monsters..."
Chen Qi looked at the 1500 inspiration points on the panel with cold eyes.
The efficiency is too low. Shadow Tide Night is a rare opportunity to gain inspiration points.
At the same time, if he wants to get a C-level score, he must kill enough shadow beasts.
Chen Qi lowered his head and glanced at the daytime lantern in his hand.
At this moment, above the ground, some shadow hands quietly spread from the dark ground, trying to extinguish the lantern in his hand.
"Bang! (Go!)"
"Ha! (Go away!)"
The six deep-sea elves carrying mining lamps acted like professional bodyguards, driving away these shadow hands.
The shadow hands have no lethality and are extremely fragile. They can be scared away with some simple shouts and attacks.
The deep sea water elves are the best choice to drive away these shadow beasts.
With the protection of the deep sea water elves, I don’t have to worry about the problem of the shadow hand for the time being... Chen Qi’s spiritual vision extends towards the darkness.
In the darkness, he could feel the restlessness and panic of the entire town.
In the silent darkness, more and more people are being attacked by shadow beasts.
Whether it is to protect the town or to drive away the creeping shadows, he must hunt, hunt more shadow beasts.
"Since my charm cannot attract shadow beasts, and since the daytime lanterns can repel shadow beasts--"
Is there something weak but powerful enough to attract them? Chen Qi fell into thought.
Chen Qi couldn't help but lower his head and look at the six cute deep-sea elves under his feet.
The deep sea elves raised their heads and stared blankly at their master.
…
…
Tick! Tick!
In the town's commercial streets, a large number of torches and lanterns were torn up and thrown mercilessly on the ground.
In the darkness, ten townspeople ran hard, striking the flints in their hands continuously and calling for help.
Behind them, there was a group of ferocious shadow beasts. They smelled the scent of humans and kept chasing them.
Their total number had reached a total of one thousand, and the densely packed bright red eyes formed a terrifying darkness.
They kept making huge gasps and roars, and were extremely excited.
In the plan of the Poseidon Pirates, the townspeople did not take the problems of the town into consideration at all, so that the entire town became a paradise for shadow beasts.
Without guards to protect the town, the townspeople can only rely on their own legs and non-staff hunters like Chen Qi.
"Light, we need light..."
The townspeople ran hard, and suddenly, they saw a small light source in front of them.
Then they suddenly stepped into the light and found temporary shelter.
The light shone behind everyone, and under the light of the lantern, the shadow beasts temporarily stopped chasing.
The leading man took a deep breath and thanked:
"Thanks!"
However, the next second, the sturdy man in the lead was stunned. There was no human being in the light source in front of him.
How did a source of light without humans escape the attack of the shadow hand?
"Wakuwaku (Hello!)"
A strange sound was heard.
They lowered their heads and found six small, bouncing creatures with mining lamps on their heads.
In this environment, it's pretty cute...
In the very center, there is a special high-brightness lantern.
The leading man shed a cold sweat:
"Thank you... We won't trigger a special plot in the crack, right?"
“Wakuwaku (You’re welcome!)”
Deepwater Elf No. 1 jumped politely.
"Everyone, we're here to support you!"
At this moment, two random second-level hunters holding torches rushed out from the street to support everyone.
Behind them, ferocious shadow beasts gathered and chased after them, forming a dense herd.
These shadow beasts are so large that they are difficult to stop even with a bright light source!
"Ready to fire!"
They had no time to think about the strange scene in front of them. They could only ignore the water elves under their feet, take out their weapons, aim at the darkness, and fire fiercely.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang!
The sound of gunfire calmed their emotions temporarily.
Suddenly, a child next to a town resident raised his hand tremblingly and pointed his index finger:
"Someone...someone in the dark..."
Everyone was suddenly shocked.
In the night of Shadow Tide, once you are in darkness, your spirit value will continue to decrease and you will yearn for light.
In other words, under normal circumstances, no one would stay in the dark for a long time.
But now, they vaguely saw a human figure in the darkness!
Could this humanoid monster be the special BOSS of Shadow Tide Night? Everyone speculated and didn't know what to do!
With their strength, they are definitely no match for the BOSS.
"What on earth is this!"
"We need support, we need the support of the bishop."
Their hands were shaking slightly, and they were about to shoot, but they saw dark tentacles spreading out from behind the humanoid monster.
The group of shadow beasts, having lost their target, instantly set their sights on the human figure in the darkness.
The next moment, the dark humanoid monster and the group of shadow beasts gathered together.
However, to everyone's surprise, facing the group of thousands of shadow beasts, the man did not try to escape.
Almost in an instant, the shadow beast wolves and shadow beast snakes were entangled by the thick tentacles and slammed to the ground.
“Roar! Roar! Roar!”
“Kill, kill, kill!”
The herd of shadow beasts let out a huge roar.
"After waiting for so long, I finally caught him..."
Chen Qi activated the power transformation and added steel energy, allowing himself to be surrounded by a layer of powerful power.
Now, it's hunting time!
At this moment, because of the advantage in numbers, the shadow beasts not only did not retreat, but instead bared their fangs and rushed towards Chen Qi!
A tide of beasts is on our face, outnumbering one thousand to one, how can we lose?
Boom, boom.
Above the ground, there were constant sounds of dense collisions!
Tentacle Meteor Fist!
Every punch from the tentacles was like a huge cannonball! All the shadow beasts that rushed towards him were quickly blocked by the tentacles!
Three hundred and sixty degrees of defense without blind spots.
In an extremely low mental state, Chen Qi was like an ice-cold fighting machine, constantly using his tentacles and blades to chop and decapitate the shadow beast! Blast it to pieces!
At this moment, the whole street was filled with horrible wails.
[Kill the Shadow Wolf and gain 100 inspiration points! ]
[Kill the Shadow Beast Dog and gain 300 Inspiration Points! ]
[Kill Shadow Bird and gain 250 inspiration points! ]
[Kill Shadow Fire and gain 50 inspiration points! ]
…
Chen Qi's tentacles punched densely, forming a terrifying storm that smashed all the incoming waves of shadow beasts.
As the bombardment became more and more intense, a large number of inspiration point prompts popped up in front of Chen Qi's eyes like a tide.
At the same time, splattering black blood exploded like fireworks, splashing onto everyone's faces.
What’s going on!
At this moment, everyone in the light source was stunned and retreated one after another.
Although they could not see the images in the dark.
But just from the voice, the humanoid monster's standing posture, and its movements, one could feel that the man was terribly strong!
The BOSS of Shadow Beast Night, beat up Shadow Beast again!
Internal strife?
Or is this a monster from the research institute?
Everyone couldn't help but think about it.
Before anyone knew it, nearly a hundred shadow beast corpses fell on the street and turned into pieces.
The originally aggressive group of shadow beasts were finally frightened by this terrifying force and began to flee.
They couldn't believe that there was someone who dared to confront them head-on in the dark!
Chen Qi's chest rose and fell with his breathing, and he felt the refreshing feeling that spread throughout his body.
Under normal circumstances, in the darkness, his spirit would have long been reduced to zero, turning into a monster full of desire.
But at this moment, he maintained his spirit, and the more he fought, the more refreshed he felt.
This is the powerful ability of the monster in the night... Chen Qi spat out a mouthful of blood.
Soon, the herd of shadow beasts fled away as if frightened.
"Who else!"
A hint of coldness flashed across Chen Qi's eyes as he looked around.
Accompanied by a large amount of killing, suddenly, a loud noise was heard.
The surroundings seemed to be torn apart by an invisible force. A huge shadow slowly rose from the darkness, obscuring the already faint light.
It was a gigantic shadow python, its body forty meters long and five meters tall, its scales like the night itself, dark and deep, its mouth flowing with large amounts of human blood and flesh.
Its eyes, flashing with a faint green light, are like ghost lights in the underworld, making people shudder.
The shadow python slowly crawled, and its huge body rolled over the house, making a loud rumbling sound, wood chips flying, and bricks and stones cracking.
As it approached Chen Qi, it slowly lowered its proud head and met Chen Qi's cold gaze.
It's time for something delicious!
Big shadow python!
Chen Qi could feel that this was not just the small monster he had just encountered, but a truly terrifying monster.
The aura it exudes is several times stronger than that of the Lost One that Chen Qi encountered in Rift No. 8 before.
If placed in a C-level group rift, it is enough to serve as a high-health BOSS!
Is this finally some hard stuff... The thick tentacle behind Chen Qi pulled out the long knife from his waist.
Draw your sword!
Chen Qi silently caught the meat and cut the bones.
Under normal circumstances, with his strength, even if he had the Blade Release, he would not be sure to defeat an elite BOSS of a C-level rift.
Especially with the bonus of B-level cracks, the health thickness of the Great Shadow Python is even far above that of the Near-Sea Overlord.
After all, he was just a rookie who had just been promoted to level three. Even if he could win, he would definitely be covered in wounds.
Of course, the premise of all this is that he has no special attack!
"Number one."
Chen Qi commanded.
call out!
Water Elf No. 1 suddenly picked up the daylight lantern in the middle and threw it next to Chen Qi.
The Day Lantern has been enhanced by the Lamplight spell.
The fire-casting technique can cast light into new flames based on the light.
Before, in order to avoid being discovered by the shadow beast, Chen Qi deliberately hid in the darkness, but now, there is no need for that.
The lighting technique can greatly increase his strength and at the same time cause high true damage to the shadow beast.
"Forge Fire—"
Chen Qi whispered, placing his finger on the light of the lantern.
Sizzling flames kept coming out from the fingertips, and the flames expanded rapidly like spilled oil.
Chen Qi held the flame in his fingers and smeared it straight across the blade of the long sword. The hot white flame burned fiercely on the blade.
call--
As the fingertips gently left the tip of the knife, drawing a final trace of flame, a perfectly enchanted long sword was formed.
A long white flame sword that has the ultimate special attack against shadow demons!
roar!
The giant shadow python raised its head, the surrounding space shook, it let out a deafening roar, bared its fangs, and pressed down heavily like a train falling from the sky!
Chen Qi suddenly drew his sword, and under the catalysis of the energy transformation, the white flame suddenly expanded and turned into a raging flaming sword that was ten meters high.
Lamp. Casting Fire. Slash of Black Wave!
The scorching flames were like a giant chainsaw, crushing the thick scales of the giant shadow python into pieces.
The surface of the giant shadow python's skin is covered with powerful night scales, which are an extremely powerful material. Even spiral bullets can hardly break through its defense!
Therefore, the Big Shadow Python is extremely confident.
It took the knife head-on without hesitation. However, at the moment of contact, its night scales melted like wax.
The big shadow python roared instinctively.
It twisted its body and just wanted to struggle, but the black waves burning with white flames burst out in the direction of the long knife, tearing a ten-meter-long dark red wound.
boom!
Accompanied by dark red blood splattered all over the street.
A huge, thick black corpse was suddenly chopped to the ground, shaking the entire street.
Defense? How do you defend against real damage?
This is the real damage of the Day Lantern, plus the ultimate special attack of Fire Casting! Snake!
Along with the decay of power and a large amount of smoke and dust, a bright red prompt popped out.
[You defeated the Great Shadow Python and gained 5000 inspiration points! ]
The surroundings gradually became quiet and the smoke and dust gradually settled.
Chen Qi put away the knife and felt the burning sensation in his hands.
Then, Chen Qi felt relieved. He turned his head and silently looked at the dumbfounded townspeople and hunters beside the water elf, and said with a smile:
"You are safe, for now."
