Only Shao Xuan could absorb the energy of the Fire Crystal in his hand, and no one else could. Shao Xuan had tried many times in the cave.
No matter if it was a junior totem warrior or an intermediate totem warrior, it was the same.
Therefore, Shao Xuan always thought that no one else could absorb the energy of the Fire Crystals in this way, including the five team leaders and Caesar. They didn't have any absorption reaction.
But now, with his special vision, Shao Xuan saw that part of the red energy released by the "burning" Fire Crystal in his hand was floating behind him, and was not absorbed by him.
Who was behind him?
Uncle Mai? There seemed to be another team leader?
Not just one, but several people. They had been on guard, so that Shao Xuan could focus on finding the missing people. But now …
Shao Xuan turned around and looked at the place where the red energy line was floating.
There was a floating object, about three meters high and shaped like a rhombus. Shao Xuan could not see the skeleton, but only a shining rhombus.
Mai and the others had been paying attention to the surroundings, but they did not feel anything unusual. They were still wondering if the leader of the bats was not in the cave, or if he was weak and did not come out. Shao Xuan had found the missing three people, and they were still alive, which was really a good thing.
But when they saw the expression on Shao Xuan's face when he turned around, Mai and the others suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.
They turned around abruptly, but before they could see clearly, the long spear in Mai's hand had been thrown out. The long spear flew rapidly in the direction where Shao Xuan had been looking at.
The long spear did not hit anything, and kept flying. After a while, it made a sound of hitting the stone wall, and then fell to the ground.
They did not see anything. This was what Mai and the others saw after they turned around.
Shao Xuan looked down at the hand holding the Fire Crystal.
The red energy line had changed its direction, almost at the moment when Mai moved.
The red energy lines emitted from the Fire Crystal floated upwards.
Mai and the others looked at Shao Xuan. Seeing Shao Xuan raise his head again, they also raised their heads. This time, they did not move, but decided to observe first.
Mai and the others still saw nothing above their heads. At least, they did not see anything within the range of their vision.
But Shao Xuan did not.
When he looked up, Shao Xuan's pupils suddenly shrank.
When they had walked into the fog, Shao Xuan had also paid attention to the top, but he did not see anything, nor could he see the top. Now, they were stepping on a large number of bat corpses, climbing higher and higher. Shao Xuan could already see the top.
There were many shiny rhombuses was hanging at the top.
And the one he had seen was the closest one was the one was closest to Shao Xuan
They still gave him the feeling they were still floating floating floating floating was floating floating floating '''s.
Was this the reason why the bats's strange?
If, there were too, there were too many!
There was more than one, there was more!
There were at least a hundred of them!
But there was still some distance to the top. Although it was not more than fifty meters, it was beyond the range of Mai and the others' vision in the fog.
But the spear that Mai suddenly threw did not even touch the edge of the thing.
Not only that, the few leaders couldn't even sense the existence of that thing!
The gap between the two sides was too obvious. If those things attacked Shao Xuan and the others, Shao Xuan could only use three words to describe their situation — they were dead meat.
The energy line of the Fire Crystal in his hand was still floating upwards.
Looking at the red energy line floating upwards, Shao Xuan wanted to stop the burning of the Fire Crystal and put it away. But then, no one would know the position of the thing above them. Even Mai and the others could not sense it, let alone the others.
"Uncle Mai!" Shao Xuan felt it was difficult to speak.
"Xuan, what did you see?" Mai had a bad feeling.
Shao Xuan was about to answer, but suddenly there was a slight cracking sound above them.
Mai and the others could also hear the sound. Their faces changed, and they shouted, "Be alert!"
Cheng and the others, who were checking on the three missing people, quickly put up their guard. However, they could only hear the sound coming from above. They couldn't see or hear anything else.
Crack, crack, crack —
The sound of a brittle shell cracking continued to ring out.
Shao Xuan saw that the shining diamond cracked from the middle.
The cracked shell broke and fell, revealing the creature inside.
Shao Xuan could only see the skeleton. The skeleton was very similar to a bat. It was not big, but the pressure it brought was a hundred times stronger than other bats.
When the hunting group walked into the mist, there were still bats coming in from the outside and throwing them here. But somehow, not a single bat came here.
The creature above them was still breaking out of its shell, and its wings stretched out silently. Its wings were not flapping, but it was almost floating there!
After breaking out of its shell, it looked down at Shao Xuan.
Shao Xuan felt a chill down his spine, and every strand of his hair seemed to be trembling. He could only see the skeleton and the sharp teeth in its mouth. He could not see its eyeballs, but he could still feel a pair of bloody eyes staring at him.
It just glanced at him, and then turned its head to look at the other "diamonds" hanging above them.
Those were its own kind.
The next moment, Shao Xuan saw it open its mouth, and the bones in its nose and throat started to move in a strange way. It was very fast, but very regular.
The hunters who were standing on top of the dead bats suddenly felt that their heads were about to explode. Their vision, hearing, and everything else disappeared at this moment.
Lang Ga and the others fell down without saying a word.
Mai and the other intermediate totem warriors were bleeding from their mouths, noses, and ears.
Puff!
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Mai and the others fell down one after another.
All the torches went out, and there was no light in the cave.
Before they passed out, all they saw was the extinguished torches, and then endless darkness.
They were all thinking about the same thing: Why didn't they go back to the tribe for help?
They were willing to die for the fire crystals, but it did not mean that they wanted the five teams to be wiped out!
Who would bring the fire crystals back to the tribe?
In that case, they would not only fail to make a contribution, but also become the sinners of the tribe!
The only one who was still holding on was Shao Xuan. In fact, Shao Xuan was also dizzy. Even with his special vision, everything he saw was almost distorted. What helped him to hold on was the fire crystal in his hand.
When the thing above broke out of its shell, it no longer absorbed the energy of the fire crystal. So now, all the energy of the fire crystal was supplied to Shao Xuan.
Shao Xuan regretted it now. If he had not dug out the fire crystal, would these things not have happened? Or, he could have stopped them from going back to the tribe for help before taking action? No, even if the tribe used all their strength, they might not be able to defeat those things above.
More than a hundred of them …
Bang!
Bang!
Bang! Loud explosions came from above. Shao Xuan struggled to hold on and looked up.
Damn it!
The one that broke out of its shell first was killing its own kind.
The "diamond-shaped" hanging on the top began to explode one by one. They did not break out of their shells, but really exploded into pieces.
Some of the "diamond-shaped" actually had cracks before. Some were breaking out of their shells, but now, they were all being slaughtered. Those that were still diamond-shaped were directly exploded by the sound waves, and those that had begun to break out of their shells were torn apart and bitten to death one by one.
The reason why a leader was called a leader was because it was the leader of the group.
As for the leader, only one would be enough.
Ignoring the broken limbs and incomplete corpses that fell one after another, Shao Xuan struggled to walk to Mai and the others. He stretched out his hand to feel them, and found that they still had a pulse. He immediately felt relieved. It was good that they were still alive.
Unable to stand steadily, Shao Xuan sat down directly. Then, he watched as the one that broke out of its diamond-shaped shell first brutally killed its own kind one by one. One of them had its head bitten off and fell in front of Shao Xuan.
Without a torch, Shao Xuan could not see with his normal vision. He could only see the skeleton that fell in front of him.
He reached out to touch it. There was fur on its body, and its flesh was very hard. Its wings were like a shield.
If they could survive, this group might become the top overlords of this forest. However, there was only one leader. The others were destined to be tragic and become stepping stones for the leader.
No wonder the bats in the cave did not come over. Now that the guys above were fighting, the other bats did not dare to join in at all. They would die if they came.
There were countless bat corpses piled up here. Every one of them was a strong member of their species when they were still alive. However, after a series of battles, only a few hundred of them survived. Then, after a special transformation that Shao Xuan could not understand, they transformed from powerful wild beasts into top-tier fearsome beasts.
After that, the ones that were selected were the strongest in the group. For example, the one that was slaughtering its own kind.
One step ahead, one step ahead.
Although many of the bats above had not broken out of their shells, they still had some ability to move. They could not be killed all at once.
The slaughter went on for about half an hour. Shao Xuan sat on the ground and watched for half an hour. He could not get up now and could not control his body's balance. He could only sit there for the time being.
When the killing above was over, the sound waves finally stopped. Shao Xuan felt that his swollen head was much better, and his vision was no longer distorted.
Feeling something strange, Shao Xuan looked up.
Less than half a meter away from him, a skeleton stood there silently. Shao Xuan could even clearly smell the blood on it.
Shao Xuan and the bat looked at each other for a few seconds. When Shao Xuan was wondering if the bat had finished slaughtering its own kind and was going to kill someone, he saw the bat leader bite the headless corpse that fell there. Soon, it let go, looked elsewhere, and walked over.
It also had folded wings and strong hind legs, but when it walked, it was much lighter than the other bats. Even in front of Shao Xuan, Shao Xuan could barely hear the sound of it walking.
The bat leader walked along the battlefield. Everywhere it went, it would bite its own kind that it had killed, and the living things that the other bats had sent over.
Strangely, it avoided the people in the hunting group.
When the bat leader walked away, Shao Xuan reached out to touch the headless skeleton. It was shriveled.
It did not look big, but its appetite was amazing, and it ate very fast. The other bats had to lick it. The bat leader seemed to bite it very casually, but soon it let go. However, the prey that was bitten had turned from a coma to a dead one, and its body had become shriveled.
Almost all the food sent by the bats in the cave and in the stone crevices had been bitten, except for the people in the hunting group.
Looking at it eating, Shao Xuan had a feeling that the last winner of the battle was disdaining the food it had just eaten.
