Chapter 285 Human Face

Chapter 285 Human Face

Before I knew it, it was nine o'clock.

Xiao Jie looked at the sky, feeling calm yet nervous, as the agreed time was about to arrive.

At this time, he activated the Phantom Pearl and transformed into Fat Gugu, mixing among a group of monsters. Finally, he was not so eye-catching.

The tree trunks around the eagle's nest were covered with bone-eating monster birds and blood-thirsty monster birds. These monsters had no intelligence and were easy to control, so they could be used as cannon fodder. At this time, Ying Baiyu had summoned them to the vicinity of the eagle's nest and prepared for battle.

At 9:15, the sound of flapping wings was finally heard in the sky. Xiao Jie looked up and saw a strange black shadow slowly descending.

Xiao Jie immediately said in a deep voice: "Attention all units, the target has appeared."

Haomie: "Already in position, just waiting for your signal buddy."

Fondant cake: "Sniper team is in place."

Drunken Swordsman: "All in place, all in place."

At this moment, the deer-headed evil bat had already landed on the edge of the eagle's nest.

"King Ying, how about it, what do you think?"

Ying Baiyu sneered and said grimly, "Of course I've thought about it."

"Then are you willing to go with me to meet my master?"

"Humph, what kind of person is your master? How dare I go to see him? If he really wants to recruit me, he should just come to see me."

The deer-headed evil bat laughed strangely after hearing this. "You are so ignorant of life and death. Are you crazy? My master is the Demon Star Tower..."

"What about the Monster Star Tower? They are just a bunch of mixed-blood bastards from the countryside. They were beaten to a pulp by the Tianyu Army, and now they are asking me for help? You should be sincere when asking for help. You evildoers, don't you know what kind of monsters your ancestors were? I, Ying Baiyu, am from the Black Hawk clan, and my ancestors gave birth to a monster king. Are you qualified to order me around?"

This conversation was naturally discussed by Xiao Jie and Ying Baiyu in order to provoke the other party and lure the BOSS over.

Xiao Jie thought to himself that it was good, Ying Baiyu had quite some skills in talking nonsense, and was almost as good as himself.

The deer-headed evil bat was shaking with anger. "Are you sure you don't know what's good for you? You don't want to obey my command of the Demon Star Tower?"

“Hahahaha,” Ying Baiyu laughed, “I think it would be better to let the Demon Star Tower obey me.”

"you--"

"Idiot, he's playing a trick on you." A strange and distorted voice suddenly came from the sky, low and hoarse, and as deafening as thunder.

Ying Baiyu's face changed: "Who are you, you rat? Why don't you show yourself?"

The sky suddenly darkened, and a black shadow appeared out of nowhere above the eagle's nest. Its wingspan was so large that it blocked out the sun and cast a huge black shadow.

When Xiao Jie saw the monster clearly, he was immediately shocked - Damn, Cthulhu?
Xiao Jie looked at the monster in front of him and couldn't help but subconsciously make some associations.

It was a gigantic monster with a wingspan of more than ten meters and huge bat-like wings. Its body looked like a human's, but it was unusually thick and twisted, especially its head. The upper half had a weird human face, while the lower half had many octopus-like tentacles.

It is exactly like the legendary Cthulhu.

However, when he saw the name of the monster, Xiao Jie decisively realized that this appearance should be just a coincidence.

This thing is probably a mixture of the blood of an octopus, a bat, and some kind of ape, so it has such a weird behavior.

Human-faced Zhe (Evil-winged Bat King): Level 36 BOSS. HP 4200.

As expected, he is over level 30... three times stronger than the original Dong Lingzi. But fortunately, as long as he is not above level 40, he is still within the controllable range.

Xiao Jie was still somewhat nervous. Dong Lingzi only had half his life left at the beginning, and it was still difficult for him to defeat him. Now that it was a big monster in full condition, there was bound to be a fierce battle.

Fortunately, I am no longer the same as before, and I have so many allies to help me, I can defeat it even if I pile them up.

Xiao Jie calmed himself down, but the Deer-headed Evil Bat asked timidly.

"Master, why are you here?"

"If I hadn't come, you wouldn't have realized you were fooled. He had no intention of joining us. On the contrary, he wanted to provoke me, lure me over, and then let his ragtag men and those returnees outside deal with me. Am I right, Captain Ying?"

Oh no! I was exposed.

Xiao Jie was shocked as he looked at this strange-looking BOSS, thinking that this BOSS had high intelligence. Although he had encountered some highly intelligent BOSSes before who could use tactics in battle, this one was the first one that could even figure out the player's plan.

Looking at the weird BOSS in front of him, Xiao Jie felt like he was fighting against a real "human".

He hurriedly shouted in the group: "He found you, level 36 BOSS, do you want to fight?"

"Level 36? No problem."

"What are you afraid of? There are so many of us, and we have the help of the boss."

"This guy actually saw through our plan? Guys, you better be careful."

There was a lot of discussion in the group.

Ying Baiyu also started talking to that man Mianzhe.

"Are you the messenger from the Demon Star Tower? Since you knew that I had an ambush here, why did you dare to show up?"

“Haha, you are just a mere ant. Why shouldn’t you be afraid? Do you think you can defeat me by outnumbering me? It seems that you know nothing about the power of the Monster Star Tower. Well, let me tell you the true power of the Monster Star Tower—come out, my children!”

It raised its hand suddenly.

Evil magic - stealing the sky and replacing the day!
A bloody vortex suddenly appeared in the sky, hanging high in the air like the sun. Five or six bat-winged monsters swarmed out of the vortex.

Wolf-headed evil bat: Level 26, HP 880.

Sheep-headed evil bat: Level 26, HP 920.

Owlheaded Bat: Level 26, HP 960.

Tiger-headed evil bat: Level 27, HP 950.

Snake-headed evil bat: Level 28, HP 1060.

Including the previous deer-headed evil bat, there are a total of six elite monsters, all with bat-like wings but completely different heads.

Xiao Jie suddenly felt stressed. It would be fine if there was only one BOSS, but with six elite monsters, all of which were of quite high levels, it became a bit difficult to deal with.

Although I expected there to be some monsters, I didn't expect them to all be elites.

Even for them, it is not easy to deal with such a lineup. They can play, but the risk is bound to be great.

Although Xiao Jie was determined to succeed in this mission, it would not be good if someone died for his plan.

He suddenly understood why Qianlong Wuyong was under so much pressure in the first place. If everyone formed a normal team to fight the BOSS, there would be no problem. But if there were casualties because of his mission, he would probably not be able to rest easy in the future.

How should I face everyone?
With more concerns in his mind, he naturally became hesitant. Xiao Jie hesitated for a moment and then quickly reported the situation to everyone.

"Everyone, the situation is a bit serious. You should make your decision whether to fight or not. Don't hesitate because of my mission."

As if hearing the solemnity in Xiao Jie's tone, An Ran smiled: "I say, you are too self-indulgent, we fight the BOSS for the equipment drops, helping you with the task is just a by-product. If the danger is really too great, we won't care what task you are on. Haomie - you decide, do you want to fight or not."

Xiao Jie knew that An Ran was trying to reassure him, and he felt somewhat relieved.

I have said everything I need to say. If someone dies again, it won't be my fault.

Haomie said in a deep voice: "I think we can fight."

"Fight, what's there to be afraid of?" Drunken Swordsman also said excitedly.

"Everyone, how about we play it safe?" Fondant Steamed Cake was still a little unsure.

The Drunken Swordsman was speechless. "Damn, are you scared now? Now we have the BOSS to help us fight the monsters. If we want to fight again in the future, we won't have this chance."

Although the five-man team is powerful, for safety reasons they usually fight BOSSes over level 20 and do not touch BOSSes above level 30. This is why the five of them do not have any epic equipment so far.

It would be unreasonable not to take advantage of such a good opportunity now.

The fondant cake gritted his teeth and said, "That's fine with me."

"Then let's fight! Let's follow the original plan and let the BOSS hold the BOSS while we quickly clear the smaller monsters."

Xiao Jie also took a deep breath and said, let’s fight.

“Hehe, I’ll give you one last chance, Ying Baiyu. Kill those returnees with me. You still have a chance to gain the gift of the Monster Star Tower. Otherwise—you and them will become my food.”

"Do it!" Xiao Jie suddenly roared.

Ying Baiyu gritted his teeth, spread his wings, and flew into the air, ordering his men around him, "Kill these bastards!"

As soon as the boss spoke, the demon birds on the surrounding branches immediately swarmed over and attacked the human-faced Zhe and several elite monsters.

Human-faced Zhe was not nervous at all. He let the evil birds attack him. His eyes suddenly widened and a blood-red halo emanated from his body.

Magic - Aura of Fear!
Those evil birds were instantly hit and were so scared that they flew away like headless flies.

Xiao Jie sighed. The level 36 BOSS was indeed not easy to deal with. How could it be so powerful?

But what about group fear? I can do that, too.

"Kill them!" Human-faced Zhe also gave an order, and six evil bat monsters swooped down and pounced on the monsters on the eagle's nest.

Watching six elite monsters swooping down with great momentum.

Xiao Jie suddenly revealed his true form.

The tiger roars with a terrifying roar—roar!

With a tiger's roar, four of the six elite monsters were struck by fear.

The other two were entangled by the monsters on the eagle's nest.

Renmianzhe was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that there was an expert there. Just as he was about to take action, he heard a loud shout.

"I am your chosen opponent!" Ying Baiyu spread his wings and pounced towards Renmianzhe.

Eagle feathers!

Countless black feather arrows were shot out, and the human-faced Zhe was too huge to dodge, so he was hit by dozens of arrows in an instant. Although the eagle feather arrows were not very powerful and only caused a few points of damage each, the number was large enough, and a round of arrow rain still caused over a hundred damages.

At the same time, Haomie and others also rushed out from their hiding places.

"Quick, pull the BOSS down!"

Trap the beast!

Fantang Fagao took out a siege crossbow from his bag and shot an arrow at the human-faced Zhe in the air. The arrow head had barbs on all sides and pierced through the human-faced Zhe's body with a "whoosh". The chain at the tail of the arrow immediately pulled it back.

Right click on the tree nearby, and the other end of the chain will be hung on the tree. Now it will be difficult for Renmianzhe to escape.

Renmianzhe looked down, his pair of scarlet eyes wondering what someone was thinking. On the other side, Zishan immediately began chanting and casting spells.

There is a law of fate between heaven and earth, and all things are born from spiritual charm. Purple air comes from the east and turns into clouds in Penglai to the east.

The spiritual rhythm turns into purple clouds, thunder appears in the clouds, thunder falls from the sky, subdues demons and destroys the devil star...

After reciting a spell, the skill bar is only halfway through...

The fondant cake on the side was speechless. The reading time of this skill was too slow. No wonder it was not used normally.

At this time, everyone else also locked on to their own targets.

The battle seemed to be going according to the previously planned schedule.

Ying Baiyu circled and flew, shooting out bursts of arrows, pulling Renmianzhe's hatred.

Drunken Swordsman and Haomie activated their Qinggong skills and each found an elite monster, trying to kill it quickly.

I wanted to become an immortal, so I used my demon-catching hand to pull one off, and swung my battle axe to chop it off on the head.

Ye Luo controlled the zombie crows and fought a fierce battle with a wolf-headed evil bat.

It was a bit difficult for the two of them to fight against elite monsters of higher levels, but fortunately their professions were quite strong and they did not fail. However, it was unlikely to kill it quickly.

The other two elite monsters swooped down towards the fondant cake.

Fantang Fagao and An Ran hurriedly released their pets, a giant eagle and a huge crow, which rushed over and stopped the two elite monsters.

Although their babies are ordinary beasts, they are both over level 26 in strength, and can fight against level 7 or elite monsters without any disadvantage.

Xiao Jie looked at the situation and felt a little relieved, but he noticed that the human-faced monster was watching the battle around him without any reaction.

Hey, is this guy so arrogant? No, this guy is holding back a big move.

Xiao Jie suddenly noticed that the man's belly was swelling rapidly, like a huge tumor, and there seemed to be something squirming inside, getting bigger and bigger.

Suddenly, there was a tearing sound, and a huge crack appeared on the belly.

Evil magic - the art of spawning evil offspring!

Just look at the belly, and countless little monsters with bat wings swarm out.

These monsters have no heads. The place where the head should be is empty, but in the neck cavity there is a spiral mouthpart full of sharp teeth, which looks extremely ferocious.

And there are so many of them, hundreds of them are born all at once.

Ying Baiyu was the first to be hit. He was instantly torn apart by dozens of little monsters and his blood volume dropped rapidly.

Because the monster was too small, the name above its head was not displayed. Xiao Jie clicked it with the mouse and finally saw it clearly.

Evil-winged bat hatchling (offspring of the human-faced Zhe): Level 5. HP 60.

Although this thing was only level five, its attack power was extremely amazing, and there were many of them, and they were extremely fast. In an instant, Ying Baiyu's feathers were bitten and flew everywhere, making him look miserable.

Ying Baiyu swung his eagle claws, killing one with each claw, but there were too many young ones and he couldn't kill them all.

After using this big move, Renmianzhe's body became much smaller. Looking at Ying Baiyu's embarrassed appearance, he laughed and said, "Haha, you see, this is the true power of the Monster Star Tower, life, evolution, transformation, reproduction... You ignorant monsters don't understand what a great power God has given you.

Surrender and witness everything with me."

Ying Baiyu's health dropped rapidly and he had no way to fight back. He turned a deaf ear to the words of Renmianzhe, spun his wings and rushed towards the sky, trying to get rid of the attack. Hundreds of evil-winged bat hatchlings were chasing him closely behind him.

The evil-winged bat hatchlings, now without a target, pounced directly on the monsters on the eagle's nest and the surrounding monster birds that had recovered from their fear.

These monsters were all the good-for-nothings left over from yesterday. They were no match for the beasts and instantly fled screaming in fear. The monster birds still had some fighting power and fought closely with these evil-winged bat larvae, but the gap in numbers was too great and many monster birds were beaten to death or gnawed to the bone.

Only Xiao Jie, who was besieged by a dozen evil-winged bat larvae, did not react at all.

White words "immune, immune, immune" kept appearing on his body.

Xiao Jie was quite pleased with himself. His specialty [Invulnerability to Swords and Guns] was indeed powerful. It was not very effective against powerful attacks from masters, but it was very effective against these small monsters.

Secret——Sweeping away everything in its path!
The blade spun and swept wildly, and in an instant, it was as if a blood rain was falling in the air. More than a dozen evil-winged bat hatchlings were chopped to death by the rotating blade.

When the man saw this, he nodded and said, "You are quite capable! Could it be that this ambush today was your doing? Well, how about you take my move again?"

Seeing that Renmianzhe was about to cast another spell, Xiao Jie's heart suddenly tightened, and he was on full alert, ready to respond.

However, at this moment, Zishan finally finished chanting the spell.

A bolt of white lightning fell silently from the sky.
-
758 (Destroy the Demon)!

Boom! The thunder sounded after it hit the target again.

The dull thunder echoed in the sky, and the human-faced Zhe was struck by lightning and fell straight to the ground, hitting the ground hard.

Xiao Jie was also shocked. Damn—so fierce?

Although the noise was quite loud, the damage was not that exaggerated. Over 700 damage looked scary, but the reading time was too long...

Xiao Jie did not hesitate. It would be bad if he let it fly again.

Just as Renmianzhe got up from the ground and prepared to spread his wings and fly, Xiao Jie leaped into the air from the eagle's nest and fell from the sky.

Wolf King killing style!
Xiao Jie swooped down, crossing his sword and slashing at the back of the human-faced Zhe.
-
118!

The moment he saw the damage number, Xiao Jie realized that the power of the lightning just now was really strong.

This guy’s defense is too high!

The man's face was hit hard and he finally lost his composure. He roared, "Boy - you're looking for death!"

The wings twisted instantly, like two huge fleshy palms, slapping towards Xiao Jie left and right.

The fight started the moment Xiao Jie landed.

Secret - disillusionment!
The two twisted flesh wings suddenly solidified in mid-air.

Five seconds is certainly not enough to kill the opponent, but it is enough if you just want to remove a wing.

Cut it off!

Xiao Jie slashed at the left wing with a knife, but because time was frozen, it was impossible to tell whether it triggered limb amputation or not.

So to be on the safe side, Xiao Jie swung his knife again.

Cut it off!

Another slash on the left wing.

Still not enough.

The blade of annihilation—cut in two with one stroke!

Swish, the third knife came down, Xiao Jie thought, let's see if you can still do it this time?

At the moment when the third sword was slashed, the time of illusion came to an end.

Puff! -337 (broken limb)!

This guy's defense is truly amazing. It took three cuts to deal more than 300 damage.

Fortunately, the limb-breaking effect was successfully triggered, and the left wing of the human-faced Zhe was cut off by one blow.

It worked! Xiao Jie suddenly felt relieved. Without wings, you will not die?
"The boss is weak, everyone come together!"

"Damn, I can't do anything!"

"I'm busy right now."

"Hold on for a while."

"immediately!"

There were ghostly howls from YY force, and Xiao Jie turned sideways to see the others being chased around by the evil-winged bat larvae.

These little monsters are of no harm to Xiao Jie, but it is different for others.

They are fast, and it is difficult to dodge them no matter how good your martial arts skills are. There are so many of them that it is useless to kill a few of them. They cause high damage, so it is very dangerous to ignore them.

In addition, they also had to deal with elite monsters of their own choice, and the situation was full of danger for a while.

At this point it all depends on your own operations.

Xiao Jie felt a chill in his heart and thought, Oh no, now I have to fight the BOSS alone again?

The man with a frown on his face had already looked at Xiao Jie.

He didn't care about the broken wings at all. An excited grin appeared on his weird face. "Good swordsmanship, good magical power, good strategy. If I eat your flesh and blood, understand your skills, and absorb your wisdom, it will definitely help me to reach a higher level in life... Hehehe, I didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain today."

Listening to the monster's laughter, Xiao Jie sighed, but his heart unexpectedly calmed down. A thought suddenly popped up in his mind - so this is what the "jiejiejie" laughter sounds like? He always thought it was just a random joke in martial arts novels, but he didn't expect this kind of weird laughter really existed.

"Come on then." Xiao Jie said lightly.

He didn't dare to hope to kill the BOSS alone, he just hoped to delay it for a while, so that others could deal with the monsters and come to help quickly."

"No hurry, since you are using a sword, I will play with you."

As the man spoke, he suddenly opened his mouth and split backwards at a 90-degree angle. A section of bone slowly rose from his neck.

Magic—the demon body turns into a sword!
Xiao Jie looked at it carefully and thought, holy shit, this is - a spine?

The bone looks like a spine, but it is not connected to the body. Instead, there is a handle-like bone segment at the end.

Renmianzhe grabbed the end of the bone and pulled it hard, actually pulling the spine out of the body.

That wasn't a spine, it was clearly a scarlet bone sword.

The blade was emitting a scarlet aura, and countless red flesh-like things were wriggling on the blade.

The man-faced man's head closed again, and his originally huge body was only three meters tall. As he had given birth to a bunch of bastards, his body became thin, with skin covering his bones, looking weird like a human alien.

Coupled with the red bone sword in his hand, it makes people feel creepy.

Renmianzhe grinned and slashed towards Xiao Jie with a sword.

Xiao Jie's heart trembled—here it comes!
