Chapter 29 Hogg Manor (IV)



In the darkness, Guet looked at the arrow that appeared silently in front of him, and turned to the right in panic, while his only remaining right hand quickly set up a blood-colored barrier in front of him.

boom!

With an explosion, Guete rushed out of the broken barrier in a panic.

Looking at the blood light that suddenly appeared in the darkness, Delon did not stop his movements. He drew the bow again and shot arrows continuously with incredible speed.

As soon as the first arrow was shot out, the second arrow was already on the string. The whole process was clean and neat.

A sound of breaking came from his ears. Guet, who had just rushed out, looked up and saw a black light piercing through the broken barrier and shooting towards him without stopping.

He looked solemnly at the arrow shot at him, waving his right hand quickly. Thin blood-red lines shot out from his fingertips and wrapped around the arrow.

The blood light and the black light on the thin line quickly offset each other. After a while, the black light on the arrow was melted away and was entangled by the thin line and stayed in front of his eyes.

He dropped his right hand and was about to breathe a sigh of relief.

Several extremely fast arrows appeared in the darkness in the field of vision.

Damn it!

Is it ever going to end?

Guet cursed in his heart, but he did not stand there in a daze. His body moved quickly, and blood-red mist surged out from under his tattered black and red cloak.

The mist covering his legs increased his speed. He dodged two arrows emitting dark light and looked at the three arrows following closely behind.

"How on earth did they find me?!"

He gritted his teeth, without stopping the movement of his right hand, he quickly made a few gestures, and a blood-red film continued to appear in front of him.

The two arrows in front finally lost their power and fell to the ground after piercing through more than a dozen layers of membrane.

Seeing that the third arrow seemed to be losing its power, Guet once again condensed a thin layer of blood film and increased his speed slightly, trying to keep some distance to avoid the arrow.

Just as the arrowhead touched the blood-colored film, a black light suddenly flashed on the arrow and disappeared in mid-air.

The moment the arrow disappeared, a sense of danger surged into Guet's heart.

"Dimensional shift?

! Space travel? "

His thoughts were racing.

"No, there can't be such a strong person in this place, is he escaping into the shadows?

!”

The moves that Black Mist Serkan often used flashed through his mind.

Hide the dagger or throwing knife into the shadows and attack from a strange place. The special nature of the shadow can ignore most conventional defense methods.

Black Mist Serkan had used this technique to assassinate many famous bounty hunters and he often boasted about it. I was almost sick of hearing it, but I didn't expect that he would remind me of it now.

Guet's breathing became a little rapid. He stopped and looked at the shadows around him vigilantly.

Feeling the sense of crisis getting closer and closer, Guette suddenly felt a chill down his spine.

Sit back and wait for death?

Isn't that just waiting to die?

Something must be done!

But I was afraid that if I moved, arrows would strike from the shadows.

Guete quickly analyzed two possibilities in his mind, but rejected both.

“Damn it, why did you suddenly attack me?

!”

Guet cursed inwardly.

Just as the sense of crisis was approaching Guette's skin, he suddenly remembered what Black Mist Serkan said... "We should be able to shoot that guy."

Putting down his slightly trembling arms, Delon breathed softly and thought that the seven arrows he had just shot had consumed a lot of his strength, especially the last arrow, which consumed almost one-tenth of his strength.

Livia looked at Delon's slightly trembling arms, rode her horse forward and leaned against Delon's side, looking solemnly at the place where the blood had just flashed.

"He actually appears here, that Diego..." Deron calmed his breathing, put the longbow in his hand back behind his back, turned his head and looked at him seriously.

"Diego is not going to die so easily. He was born a commoner and has fought his way to this point. How could he be left there by a small cultist?"

"I guess this cultist used some means to escape back to Hogg Manor, and was then sent by Moore to hold us back."

Livia nodded silently.

Suddenly, there were roars and sounds of fighting not far away.

Delon looked at the knights who were already fighting against the unknown creatures in the darkness, identifying the shapes of the monsters and thinking in his mind.

Livia looked at the monster illuminated by the firelight, and the familiar appearance made him exhale involuntarily.

"Bat-winged demon?

!”

Delon frowned, looked at the somewhat surprised Livia, and asked with some confusion on his face.

"Do you know what that is?"

"The Bat-winged Demon is a blood-sucking monster. I've seen it in a book before. Its appearance is very impressive. Basically, you can't mistake it once you've seen it."

After hearing Delon's question, Livia reacted, thought about it for a while, organized her words, and explained to Delon.

Delon looked at the monster that was chopped to the ground by the knights in the firelight. This monster, which was about the size of a human teenager, had a flat and disgusting face, a wide mouth full of teeth, and a bald body covered with warts. The most eye-catching thing was the short bat wings that stretched from the fingers all the way to the armpits.

Then some nodded in agreement. Indeed, it was basically impossible to make a mistake in identifying this kind of monster after seeing it.

"It's easy to remember. It seems that the previous blood-sucking incident was caused by this kind of monster."

Hearing this, Livia remembered the victim in the food store before, and the next moment he spoke with a firm tone.

"no!

This kind of monster is recorded to only tear its victims into pieces. The blood-sucking monster that killed humans in Kovagor is definitely not a bat-winged demon!"

"Um?

Why does this...bat-winged demon only tear people into pieces?

As you said before, they are blood-sucking monsters."

Delong looked at him with some confusion and asked.

Livia recalled the search information he had read in his previous life. Because he was very fond of the game The Witcher, he specially read the original work and some records, so he still remembered the habits and descriptions of creatures such as the Bat-winged Demon.

After confirming the accuracy of the information in his mind, he looked at Delong seriously and said.

"Because this kind of monster has a low intelligence, it will usually go into a mindless rage after entering a battle or seeing blood, and will only think about tearing the target in front of it into pieces."

Feeling the unquestionable tone in Livia's words, Delon had no doubts and turned his attention back to the knights who were fighting against the monster called the Bat-Winged Demon.

After a moment he sighed deeply.

"It seems that these monsters are really as you said, and they have basically no intelligence. There must be more hidden behind this incident."

"Moore, what do you want to do?"

Looking at the knights not far away working together to easily kill a bat-winged demon, he thought a little worriedly.
