After the holes in various places came out, the five hunting parties gathered together.

In front of them, there is a very wide hole, and it is impossible to see where the top is above, and the front is even more like a fog.

I thought that some bats would be forced to hide here by the smoke, but I didn't expect that in this wider area, there was not a single bat.

Maybe ran to other holes, but not all here. What's so special about this place? People can't know.

"How are you over there?" Mai asked the other little bosses.

"Fortunately, there are not many left in the cave, and it is not difficult to deal with."

"It's the same with us."

"It seems that most of them are out."

This is a good sign.

"Something's coming!" said Qi suddenly.

There are more than five bat caves that can be found outside, and there are other caves that also lead here.

"Do you want to put out the torch?"

"No, it's useless to put out the fire. Just wait, there are only two here."

Cheng gestured towards the others.

The hum of wings flapping was very clear in the quiet cave.

Soon, everyone heard the sound of bats flying out of another hole.

Whoosh whoosh!

Although everyone may not be able to see the appearance of the two bats, they can judge their specific positions by hearing.

The spears in the hands of Mai Jiren threw them as soon as the two bats came out.

After a few puffs, the two bats only made short syllables and fell to the ground.

Let a few people throw smoked grass in other bat caves, and Cheng stepped forward to look at the bats on the ground and the prey they caught.

The two bats had already been stabbed into hedgehogs, and the ox that was caught was also affected, and was hit with a few spears, though. The cow is still alive, just in a coma. like other prey,

Those bats just stun their prey. But not directly killed.

"Look at the direction they fly, it's towards that side."

Everyone looked in the direction that Cheng pointed. Even with the light of the fire, it was impossible to see the front, like a fog.

"Acheng, will they..." Qi looked at the misty place in front of him and said.

The prey caught by the bats was sent there. Are the three people who disappeared from the hunting team also sent to that direction? Also, they came here this time to find the reason for the abnormal behavior of those bats. If you can figure it out, you can fundamentally solve the problem, otherwise every time you want to dig fire crystals, you have to risk being chased and killed by the bat swarm.

And the reason for the abnormality of bats is probably there.

The five little leaders once analyzed and felt that the bats were probably preparing food for a leader, a phenomenon that occurs in many animals. This possibility is very high, and if it is, they will do everything they can. Kill the leader.

That boss is in there?

After killing the leader, did the group of bats disperse?

"Go and have a look. Be careful!" said the pair.

As soon as they walked into the foggy place, the torches in the hands of everyone were obviously much smaller.

Visibility is low. There was an extremely unpleasant smell around, like a heavy fog.

miasma? Shao Xuan was puzzled.

The smell that hit their nostrils made them dizzy, not a bat cave smell, but a dizzying smell. Fortunately, the smell of vine grass soothes this feeling.

Put a piece of medicinal herbs in the mouth, the medicinal herbs have a cool and bitter taste, so that everyone's spirits are slightly lifted.

The sound of wings flapping sounded again, this time more, the effect of smoky grass was limited after all. There were about a dozen bats flying from other caves, all catching their prey. Mai Jiren also planned to throw spears to kill him. Unexpectedly, they did not attack the hunting team. He didn't even look at the crowd, but grabbed the prey. Fly into the misty place.

Somewhere in the fog, there was a thud of a heavy object landing, and after a while, the bats flew out of the fog and flew back into the cave.

"Their leader must be there." Cheng whispered.

The further you went in, the smaller the flame of the torch, as if it was about to burn out. Due to the influence of the "dense fog", even Mai, holding a torch, can only see the situation within ten meters, let alone other people.

"this place……"

Before he could finish his words, he kicked an object under his feet.

The nerves were instantly tense, and he entered a state of preparation. But soon, he found that the objects under his feet did not have any breath of life.

"Dead?" The ballast kicked the object under his feet.

What the ballast kicked was a dead bat that had been dead for a long time.

Not only at the foot of the ballast, but also in the surrounding fog-shrouded area, the ground is full of bat skeletons. That is to say, here, there are corpses of bats everywhere, and in some places there are several layers, which is a bit scary.

Going further, the bat corpses piled up thicker and thicker, like a hill.

dead bat.

All dead bats.

And there are many tragic deaths, incomplete corpses, and cruelly bitten off before they die.

No wonder the bats in the cave can't come, this is simply a bat's cemetery!

"Each one is very big... It's been dead for a while." Cheng said after looking at the few on the ground around him.

"Looking at the marks left on them, it's like killing each other."

"Why do they kill each other?"

"I remember that in some herds, to choose a leader, you must go through a fight." Mai said.

"what do you mean……"

"There really is their leader here?!"

Everyone suddenly became nervous. If these bats were all alive, with such a huge number and size, five small leaders would not dare to bring people over directly. And so many bats emerge decisively, what kind of beast would it be?

Even so, there was no retreat in the hearts of everyone.

In fact, when discussing with Mai and the others, Shao Xuan once proposed to return to the tribe to find reinforcements. After all, the hunting has just begun, and they are only at the first stronghold. It is faster to return to the tribe to find people than to find the advance team. Moreover, back to the tribe, you can find many people to come to help, which is safer.

However, Shao Xuan's proposal was rejected by everyone. One is the rivalry between the two hunting teams. The five little leaders did not want the other team to participate, and they did not even want to let them know the news. Second, the more people involved. At that time, the less everyone gets, the less everyone is willing.

Shao Xuan's idea is. If you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood, but other people's thoughts are, for the sake of Huojing, let's die.

This is what the tribesmen thought. In the front, Mai also reprimanded Shao Xuan for "digging something is more important than life", and everyone became crazy afterward.

Shao Xuan underestimated this madness, so when the five little leaders were discussing actions. Only then did he know that these people were really going to fight for their lives.

As they continued onward, bats could still be heard in the air transporting their prey. Not a single bat cares about people in the fog and goes about its own business.

boom!

Another sound of prey falling to the ground.

The place where the prey fell, was already very close to everyone in the hunting party.

"Wait!!" Cheng whispered.

"Breathing." Mai Jiren also noticed it.

There were a lot of breathing sounds around here.

The breathing of living creatures other than hunting party warriors and bats in the air is very, very much. It's just that every breath is weak.

Like climbing a mountain, step on the thick bat corpse and continue to move forward.

The light of the torch was already very weak. It was reduced to only one-fifth of the original size, and the vision was severely limited. Now everyone relies more on hearing. to find out what's going on around you.

Some junior totem warriors can't bear it anymore, this is approaching their limit, and they are almost forced to not faint. The effect of vines and herbs has been minimal, and they can't resist the poisonous miasma in this fog.

"Those who can't hold on stop first, and those who can hold on continue." Mai said.

The other four teams did the same.

Shao Xuan held the small fire crystal in his hand, and the energy from the fire crystal kept him clear and bright, which took longer than other junior totem warriors.

"It's a big horned deer!" Someone found a living thing on the ground.

"And the antelope!"

"There are wild boars too!"

Live animals began to appear one after another around. It's just that these animals are in a deep coma, in this foggy place. They can't wake up. Even when he woke up, he took a breath. will faint again.

The people who became the hunting team were overjoyed. The three missing persons should also be here and should be alive.

There are all kinds of animals thrown on the hill-like bat corpse, and it is difficult to find people in such a large place.

"A Xuan, can you see?" Mai asked, remembering that Shao Xuan's night vision was better than the average person.

"I can't see far. I'll try my best." Shao Xuan said.

Shao Xuan used his special ability to be able to see the surrounding objects, but he also felt that there was a layer of fog blocking him. Even so, Shao Xuan is much better than others.

Because all you see are skeletons, you can only tell what animals these are from the skeletons.

Others were vigilant around them, while Shao Xuan looked for three human skeletons in a field of vision full of skeletons.

Most of the junior totem warriors had already stopped and failed to follow, and Shao Xuan was the only young warrior who followed here.

However, everyone thinks that it should be the reason that Shao Xuan has learned from Wu, and this is why he can persist here.

The energy of the fire crystal in the hand was continuously absorbed into the hand, so that the totem in the mind that had been gradually wilting continued to persist, but it was only barely maintained.

Shao Xuan thought to himself that the energy of Huojing was about to run out, and the energy absorbed now is far less than before.

The sound of airflow with a breathing rhythm still exists, but Shao Xuan could not find the source of this sound, and other people could not hear such a sound.

His eyes swept through the pile of skeletons, and finally settled on the place that resembled a human.

"I found it!" Shao Xuan whispered.

Cheng led the people towards the place Shao Xuan pointed, and really saw the people on the ground. The three of them were not far away, and they were still breathing.

The three were found, but Shao Xuan was still uneasy, and he always felt that there was something around him.

Looking down at the hand holding the fire crystal block, with just one glance, Shao Xuan felt his scalp numb, his hair was about to stand up, the hair on his body exploded, and coldness penetrated into every bone.

In Shao Xuan's hands, the red energy lines released by the "burning" fire crystal did not all enter Shao Xuan's body as usual, and some of them floated behind Shao Xuan. (To be continued)
