Chronicles of Primordial Wars

The five teams sent people to the mountain where the Tiankeng was located every day to investigate the situation, and the three of their team were taken away, and there is no news yet.

The person investigating the situation has been observing from a distance, and it is impossible to enter the cave of the bats. There are flying bats everywhere around the cave, much more than those around the crevices of the Tiankeng.

Seven days have passed, and according to everyone's judgment, the chances of those three still alive are very small. However, because it is about Huojing, and it is still a combination of five teams, it is impossible to act rashly without preparation. In that case, not only three people will be lost, but three teams may be lost.

"However, a lot of prey were caught, but nothing was thrown out," said a person who had just come back from there.

The prey that the bats have eaten outside will not be taken away, and they will not be eaten up. Many times, they prefer blood. When the blood is exhausted, the interest is gone.

In the past seven days, Shao Xuan went to Tiankeng again, accompanied by the top-notch people from the five teams, and this time he was more careful.

Shao Xuan carefully inspected several places, only one was closest to the surface, and the others needed to be dug a little deeper.

The fire crystal closest to the surface was dug out, and of course the big bats in the stone crevices were also disturbed, and they were chased for a distance.

But the strange thing is that they chased a long way before. If the people in the hunting team had not caused some trouble, they would not have gotten rid of them, but this time, Shao Xuan found that those bats gave up earlier and chased a little bit. Yuan then stopped chasing, it seems to them, these people in the hunting party are just trivial matters, and they don't need to worry about it.

It is speculated that in the mountain where the tiankeng is located, the bats gathered slowly. All the bats in this area, all went there.

Fortunately, most of them are not very intelligent. It can only be regarded as a more powerful beast.

Shao Xuan wanted to make some big nets for catching bats, but was unable to make them with suitable materials. gave up. With those bat claws and razor-like teeth, vine nets and the like, they can break open at will.

In the end, the plan finalized by the five leaders was to use smoke.

The five teams had less than 200 people in total, but there were thousands of big bats in that mountain. And, according to the information returned by the observers, new bats are constantly being added.

The good thing is that not all of them were as big as the ones they encountered in the sinkhole that day, and many were about the same size as the one that attacked Caesar.

A single one is easy to deal with,

But more is still a hassle.

Now the goal of the hunting party is to dig up the fire crystals, find the missing people, and minimize head-on collisions with those bats. Either way, the bats need to be driven away first. And smoking is undoubtedly a good idea.

For the hunters. Some smoky plants are often used when hunting, such as removing bugs, repulsing beasts, and so on. And this time. Everyone is also planning to try the smoking method first.

Smoked plants have to be carefully selected. If the bats are not smoked, they will smoke their own people to death, and then they will deceive teammates.

The five little bosses compared several plants that are often used for smoking, and selected the one with the most obvious effect.

"Those things seem to hate this smell very much. I threw a small ball at them yesterday and they just ran away." Lang Ga said proudly.

Yesterday, Lang Ga encountered a few bats that were hunting, and he had almost succeeded. Lang Ga threw a smoking grass ball and landed next to the prey. The prey has lost the ability to move and cannot run. And those bats who could not wait to enjoy a good meal, after the smoke on the grass spread, they screamed and flapped their wings to leave, and were very displeased with the smell of the grass.

"That's great, so we have a better chance of success," Mai said.

In addition to choosing smoked plants, you must also prepare herbs, in case you are bitten and fainted, or you are smoked. The smell of smoky grass is not too annoying to them, but it is enough to smell it for a long time.

At the suggestion of Shao Xuan, the people of the hunting team weaved a refreshing rattan into a mask-like shape and wore it when they entered the cave. The cool smell of rattan could make those who were smoked by the smoke more sober.

"Boss, when can we leave?" someone in the cave asked. The food they eat every day is robbed by those bats. In the surrounding area, many wild beasts and beasts have left, and it is difficult to find food that fits their mouths. They have to be on guard against those bats.

"Soon." Cheng said.

Stone tools, herbs, and other necessary items are all in place, and it's really time to get going.

Shao Xuan sat on the side, listened to them talking about the upcoming action, and looked at his hands. In his hand, he held a small red spar, which was dug when they went to the tiankeng for the second time. There were two fire crystals near the surface, which were not large. One was taken away for safekeeping. And another smaller piece, which Shao Xuan held by himself.

This small fire crystal is slightly larger than a grain of rice, and much smaller than the one dug up for the first time. Therefore, the other leaders did not show any objection to Shao Xuan holding this fire crystal himself. In their opinion, Tiankeng is the most important place.

Feeling the warm current coming from his palm, Shao Xuan was very puzzled. Mai and the others said that the energy in the fire crystal can only be absorbed after the fire is burned. However, from the first time he held the fire crystal, Shao Xuan absorbed a little energy from the fire crystal, not much, but obviously . And this time, he wanted to keep a piece for himself, just to make sure.

In the sea of ​​​​consciousness, you can see a trace of red "lines" gathered on the totem and integrated with the totem. Even though this fire crystal is small, the energy it contains far exceeds Shao Xuan's expectations.

If he uses another ability vision in his body, Shao Xuan can see that the fire crystal on his palm is "burning", and the red energy released by the burning makes a bend in the air, and then gets into the palm, arm, or other parts of the body. Finally gathered into the totem.

------

Two days later, five hunting parties began their operations.

The assigned work has been done, and each performs its own duties.

Shao Xuan followed Mai and the others to a bat cave. He originally planned to enter directly through the gap on the side of the Tiankeng, but in the end he was rejected after discussion. On the Tiankeng side, it was difficult to hide around. And the bats operating there are much larger and easier to spot. Compared to other places on the mountain, the bat cave is much easier. The bats there are easier to deal with, and there are places around for them to hide.

"The crevices on the mountain should be connected to the holes in other places. Let's go in through one of the holes first." Mai said to his men.

Everyone wears masks made of vines, which is not very comfortable, but it is practical. The cool smell of grass and vines calms their irritability.

Looking at the wind direction, Mai motioned for everyone to take action.

Some people hid in the grass and covered themselves with grass, while others carried grass for smoking. near the hole.

In their hands they carried long, slender spears, all of wood, with wads of smoked grass tied to the tips.

Start a fire, and after the fire is almost burned, put it out, and thick smoke suddenly rises from the spearhead.

"shoot!"

The slender spear body was thrown, like an arrow off the string, flying towards the bat cave in front.

One by one, each of them held dozens of spears tied with smoked grass, and breathed. All accurately projected into the Batcave.

Soon, thick smoke rose from the bat cave.

The choice of the bat cave is also based on the wind direction. And in front of this, the wind is blowing into the cave at this moment.

A small portion of the smoke inside the cave is blown out, and more is blown deeper into the cave.

squeak-

The sharp voice came from the cave, and these Lang Ga and others could also hear it.

Seeing smoke from inside the cave start to rise, it's proof that the bats inside are flapping their wings towards the outside of the cave.

The thrower is also immediately ready.

Huhu——

Bats flew out of the cave quickly, and hundreds of them came out in the blink of an eye.

The bats that were forced out of the cave were flying outside the cave, and some were shouting angrily. When they looked around, they saw a group of people standing there.

squeak--

A sharp cry rang out. A group of bats that were forced out of their holes flew towards the person who just threw the spear.

"Run!"

These spear throwers are the fast runners in the hunting party. As soon as the group of bats came after them, they ran away.

the direction they are running. There is a gray area. A former hunting team walked through once and knew that there was a group of huge spiders in the woods there. In addition, the gray area was not on their hunting route, so the hunting team usually did not go there. . But now, they plan to use those big spiders.

Lead the bat swarm over and let the bat swarm fight with those big spiders!

When a large group of bats chased away, the people hiding outside the cave came out and walked into the cave. Go in and don't forget to throw some smoked grass at the entrance of the hole.

According to common sense, on a sunny day like today, when the sun is just right, those bats should hide in the cave, but the fact in front of them is not the case.

Some of the bats had gone out long ago, some were chasing them out just now, and some flew deeper into the cave, and not many are still in the cave at the moment.

These bats are not difficult to deal with. Mai led people and torches to hunt down the bats that came over. These bats have big eyes, but in this dark cave, they don't do much, and they rely more on their keen sense of smell and hearing.

The members of the hunting party wore thick leather shoes. Many people were not accustomed to wearing shoes at ordinary times, and they were also forced to wear them before the action.

The bat poo in the cave has accumulated a thick layer, and there are some small bugs crawling in the bat poo.

puff!

Lang Ga stabbed a bug that crawled over in half with a spear, frowning tightly: "This place really stinks."

Mai didn't speak, took the torch, and continued to walk in with the people. While sweeping the bats, some smoky grass is thrown as well.

The other four hunting teams, like Mai, have also entered the cave now, in order to seize the time in case something changes.

Everyone endured the stench in the cave and the smell of smoky grass, and went inside quickly. The inside of the cave was not flat, with raised stones everywhere, some of them so sharp that they could hardly move if it wasn't for the light of the torches.

Everyone had guessed before that the rock crevices on the mountain were connected to other bat caves, and after a while, the five hunting teams heard the voices of others.

"Sure enough, there is a connection here." (To be continued)
