In the darkness, ten villagers ran desperately, constantly striking their flint and calling for help.
Behind them, alarmingly, was a pack of ferocious Shadow Beasts, smelling the scent of humans and relentlessly pursuing them.
The number had now reached a full thousand; their dense, blood-red eyes formed a horrifying darkness.
They kept making loud panting and roaring sounds, exceedingly excited.
In the plan of the Sea God Pirate Group, the villagers hadn't considered the town's issues, resulting in the entire town becoming a paradise for the Shadow Beasts.
With no guards to protect the town, the villagers could only rely on their own legs and on auxiliary hunters like Chen Qi.
"Light, we need light..."
The villagers ran desperately and suddenly, ahead, they saw a small source of light.
They then fiercely stepped into the light source, finding temporary shelter.
The light shone behind the people, and under the lantern's light, the Shadow Beasts also temporarily stopped their pursuit.
The leading burly man gasped heavily, giving thanks:
"Thank you!"
However, the next second, the leading strong man froze as in the light source ahead, there were no humans.
A light source with no humans, how did it escape the Shadow Hand's attack?
"Vakuvaku (Hello!)"
Strange sounds issued.
They looked down only to discover six round, small creatures with mining lamps on their heads.
In this environment, they seemed rather cute...
At the very center, there also sat a special high-bright lantern.
The leading burly man shed a drop of cold sweat:
"Thank you... we didn't trigger some special plot scenario, did we?"
"Vakuvaku (You're welcome!)"
The Water Elf Number One politely hopped.
"Everyone, we've come to assist!"
At that moment, two Second-tier Hunters, each holding a torch, rushed out from the streets to support everyone.
Behind them, the ferocious Shadow Beasts converged and pursued, forming a dense pack.
The scale of these Shadow Beasts was so immense that even the bright light source could hardly stop them!
"Prepare to fire!"
They had no time to contemplate the current anomalies, they simply overlooked the water elves underfoot, drew their weapons, aimed into the darkness, and violently opened fire.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
The gunfire temporarily calmed their emotions.
Suddenly, a child next to one of the villagers shakily raised his hand, pointing:
"Someone... someone in the darkness..."
Everyone was sharply startled.
On Shadow Tide Night, once one is shrouded in darkness, the spiritual value keeps decreasing, longing for light.
Normally, under no circumstances would anyone stay in the darkness for long.
But now, they faintly saw a human figure in the darkness!
A human-shaped monster, could it be the special BOSS of Shadow Tide Night? The crowd guessed anxiously, not knowing what to do!
With their ability, they were no match for the BOSS.
"What in the world is this!"
"We need support, we need the bishop's support."
Their hands trembled slightly, as they were preparing to fire, but then they saw the human-shaped monster's back, constantly spreading out dark black tentacles.
The target-less Shadow Beast horde instantly set their sights on this human figure in the darkness.
In the next instant, the pitch-black human-shaped monster and the Shadow Beast horde converged together.
Yet, contrary to everyone's expectations, facing thousands of Shadow Beasts, that person did not run at all.
Almost instantly, the Shadow Wolves and Shadow Serpents were entwined by thick tentacles and violently smashed to the ground.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The pack of Shadow Beasts issued tremendous roars.
"Waited so long, finally caught..."
Chen Qi activated Qi Power Transformation, enhanced with Steel Qi, enveloping himself in a strong layer of Qi Power.
Now, it was time to hunt!
At this moment, because of their numerical advantage, the Shadow Beasts, rather than retreating, bared their fangs and charged towards Chen Qi!
With a thousand against one, how could they lose?
Boom, boom.
The ground continuously transmitted dense thuds!
Tentacle Meteor Fist!
Each punch from the tentacles was like a large cannonball! All the Shadow Beasts rushing toward him were swiftly blocked by the tentacles!
Three hundred sixty degrees of flawless defense.
In an extremely low spiritual state, Chen Qi, like a cold war machine, continuously used tentacles and blades to slash, decapitate, and obliterate the Shadow Beasts!
At this moment, the entire street emitted terrifying cries of agony.
[Kill Shadow Wolf, obtain 100 inspiration points!]
[Kill Shadow Dog, obtain 300 inspiration points!]
[Kill Shadow Bird, obtain 250 inspiration points!]
[Kill Shadow Fire, obtain 50 inspiration points!]
...
Chen Qi's Tentacle Punch, densely packed, formed a terrifying storm, obliterating all the encroaching waves of Shadow Beasts.
With increasingly intense blows, a massive flood of inspiration points notifications, like a tide, jumped out before Chen Qi's eyes.
Meanwhile, the splashing black blood, like exploding fireworks, burst open, spraying onto people's faces.
What's happening!
At this moment, those within the light source were stunned, retreating collectively. Continue your journey on My Virtual Library Empire
Although they couldn't see clearly in the darkness,
merely from the sound, the humanoid monster's stance, and his attacking movements, they could feel... that person was terrifyingly powerful!
The BOSS of Shadow Tide Night, beating up the Shadow Beasts!
An internal conflict?
Or, was this a monster from the research institute?
People let their imaginations roam.
Before they knew it, nearly a hundred bodies of Shadow Beasts lay on the street, turned into fragments.
The formerly aggressive Shadow Beast horde, having finally been frightened by this terrifying power, started to flee en masse.
