Chapter 451: Chapter 451: The Demonized Bat

Seeing the towering zombie that was over two meters tall, Falakfu tightly held his great sword, glanced at Song Jian and said, “Be careful of the Zombie Commander. Legend has it that he has received the power of the devil, capable of commanding all mutated zombies, he is the king among zombies!”

Song Jian took a look at the boss in front of him, and couldn’t help but gasp. He didn’t expect that this was only the second boss in the instance, yet it was already a level 25 lord-level boss.

“Mutated Zombie Commander, Level 25, Lord level, Vitality Points: 9000/9000”

“It’s just a level 25 lord-level monster, it shouldn’t be a big problem!” Song Jian glanced at Falakfu standing beside him. Even without the help of this level 25 elite, Song Jian alone was confident that he could take out this Zombie Commander. Now with Falakfu’s aid, dealing with the boss should be even easier.

Just then, a black speck suddenly appeared in the distant sky, and a piercing cry resonated in everyone’s ears. The militiamen couldn’t help shouting, throwing down the weapons in their hands, and covering their ears. Despite this, many of them had fresh blood oozing from their ears.

“Damn it, another one is here!” Falakfu’s face changed drastically, he trembled and looked upwards into the distant sky.

A giant black bat was rapidly approaching from the distance. Its two eyes were blood-red, and it fixated on Falakfu. Its furry body had a huge scar that seemed to have just healed, surrounded by a ring of pink, raw flesh.

“Mutated Bat Leader, Level 25, Lord level, Vitality Points: 5000/10000”

“Damn it, even this bat has come to join the fray. I should have killed it completely earlier!” Falakfu roared angrily, glancing back at the village gate, his eyes filled with deep worry.

If it was just the Mutated Zombie Commander, as long as it couldn’t break through the village gate, it couldn’t harm the villagers inside. But this Mutated Bat Leader was different. It could bypass the village’s defenses and enter the village to kill the inhabitants.

It was because of this bat that dozens of villagers were killed during a previous night raid. Although Falakfu managed to seriously wound it, he didn’t expect the Mutated Bat Leader to appear in front of him once again, taking advantage of the chaos caused by the mutant zombies attacking the village. It seemed that it was here for revenge.

“Mutated Bat!” Song Jian looked at the giant bat and felt a thrill of excitement rather than fear. The main reason he had chosen to venture into this real difficulty instance was to obtain the Magic Source Stone from the Mutated Bat. He did not expect to encounter the bat so soon.

As Falakfu was about to speak, Song Jian interjected: “You deal with the Zombie Commander, the bat is mine!”

After saying this, Song Jian jumped into the air, sprouting a pair of iron wings from his back and flew towards the giant Mutated Bat.

Falakfu knew that without Song Jian’s help, he wouldn’t be able to defend the village. Although the Mutated Bat was injured and had only half its vitality points left, it could fly, making it a tougher adversary than the Zombie Commander.

Falakfu initially intended to take on the bat himself, yet Song Jian had chosen the most difficult opponent. This filled Falakfu with gratitude.

“May the Holy Light bless us!” Falakfu roared, holding his double-handed sword high in the air. A brilliant golden light radiated from his sword, covering all the militiamen. A faint golden circle even appeared under Song Jian’s feet.

“Holy Light Blessing? All attributes increased by 10%, vitality restoration rate increased by 30%, the effect is quite good!” Song Jian looked at his status bar and nodded slightly in approval.

Swish ~

On seeing Song Jian rushing at it, the Mutated Bat Leader immediately gave up its original target and pounced at Song Jian instead. The bat leader radiated a black aura, and its claws, resembling sharp blades, seemed to shred the air to pieces.

Its shrill cries emitted from its mouth, each one like a sharpened arrow, leaving Song Jian with no chance to dodge, forcing him to endure the force of the BOSS’S sonic attack.

Clang, clang, clang~

Song Jian’s steel wings, as though conscious, fluttered continually, maintaining their flight while simultaneously launching themselves toward the demonic bat leader’s claws, defending against its damage.

Song Jian, of course, showed it no mercy, his long sword consistently chopping at the demonic bat leader’s body. Streams of purplish-red blood splattered out, and tiny bits of fur were shredded by the Sword Qi. Within three minutes, the demonic bat leader’s Vitality Points had plummeted down to less than 30%, leaving it looking haggard.

At this moment, Song Jian still had half of his Vitality Points left, over one thousand points. He initially struggled with aerial combat, but later was able to deftly navigate the battlefield, actively evading the demonic bat leader’s attacks.

Squeak,squeak, squeak’

A burst of frantic, piercing noises sound out. Song Jian was preparing to deliver his most powerful blow to finish off the demonic bat leader, but upon hearing its urgent cries, he immediately halted.

“It’s summoning small monsters!” A look of excitement emerged on Song Jian’s face, as he waited for the BOSS to summon the small monsters.

Before long, a black fog appeared in the distance and tens of level 25 Elite Level demonic bats rapidly descended upon Song Jian.

“Just what I wanted!” Song Jian thrust his sword into the demonic bat leader’s chest, then fiercely dragged it downwards. The wound that had been stricken by Falakfu once more splintered open, causing over a thousand points of critical damage, floating up from the head of the demonic bat leader.

A mournful scream erupted as the demonic bat leader shook uncontrollably. Its massive wings lost all strength and it plummeted down like a stone, squirming helplessly on the ground.

Without sparing another glance at the bat leader, who was on the brink of death on the ground, Song Jian began to charge towards the monsters it had summoned.

The skies were soon filled with demonic bats which plummeted to the ground like dumplings boiled in water. Those who were critically wounded but not dead struggled on the ground, unleashing pitiful cries.

Meanwhile, Song Jian was covered with minor wounds. These demonic bats had tough skin and their small sharp teeth inflicted high damage. Eventually, Song Jian also suffered considerable damage, with his Vitality Points falling below three hundred.

“Phew, I underestimated them. I didn’t expect these little creatures to be so formidable. I nearly got surrounded and killed by them.” Song Jian pulled out an Advanced Healing Potion and gulped it down.

At this moment, the zombie war general had pushed Falakfu to the village gate, with all the remaining militia heavily injured and carried back into the village. The heavy gate was closed, left outside were only Song Jian and Falakfu.

Up on the ramparts, the militiamen continuously used crossbows to attack the zombie war general. However, their arrows could not break through the zombie’s defence, sparking off its body like they were hitting metal.

Falakfu was a mess. The once vibrant golden glow surrounding him had dwindled to a thin layer barely clinging to his body’s surface. The back of his sword was marked with a crack; it seemed likely it would shatter before much longer.

“Humans, die!” The zombie war general swung his enormous bone club, ruthlessly hammering it toward Falakfu’s head.
