Chapter 308 Group Attack
Xiao Han had a bad feeling when he saw those bats.
It's estimated that Chu Qing is the only one by the hot spring pool right now. They're hovering above him; could they be heading towards him?
With that thought in mind, he quickened his pace.
Only when everyone got closer could they see that those circling in the air were indeed a swarm of bats, and the larger ones were also bats, not eagles or other birds of prey.
"I didn't expect it to actually be bats!" Qingzhou said. "The sheer number is terrifying!"
Such a huge swarm of bats, their sheer number is enough to make one's scalp crawl.
"Your Highness... the hot spring pool that the girl booked is the small courtyard with the lights on in front."
The manager was so frightened by the dense swarm of bats overhead that he could not move, and the bats seemed to be flying towards the yard in a group.
"W-w-w-how can there be so many bats? This has never happened before."
Bronze glanced in the direction of the courtyard, then at the steward.
The appearance of these bats was extremely strange. Not only were they numerous, but he could also sense a strong sense of malevolence emanating from them, which might harm people, especially the larger ones.
If the Dragon Girl really is inside, could it be that she attracted these bats?
If that's the case, it's best not to let outsiders know about it.
"You don't need to lead the way. Go back and arrange accommodations for us, and prepare some food. Our prince hasn't had dinner yet!"
"Yes, yes, yes..." Upon hearing Qing Tong's instructions, the steward hurriedly nodded in agreement, "I will go back and make arrangements for the Prince and the other gentlemen."
Bats are ugly, and so many of them came all at once; it was quite creepy, and he really didn't want to go with them.
Those large bats were even more frightening; he also noticed that one of the bats had reddish eyes and looked very eerie.
He doesn't know martial arts and has no weapons for self-defense. If the swarm of bats goes berserk and hurts people, it will be troublesome. Getting scratched is no joke.
He's not the type to join in the fun, so it's best to stay away.
Without hesitation, the manager turned around and walked back.
After receiving the bat demon's command, the swarm of bats began to launch continuous attacks on Long Chuqing.
Phoenix Feather's spiritual power was no longer enough to support her in transforming into human form, so she transformed into a sharp sword and swiftly slashed down at the bats that were swooping down.
The bat demon intended to use the swarm of bats as bait, while they lay in wait, planning to launch a surprise attack on Long Chuqing when she wasn't paying attention.
The bats were just ordinary bats, but there were so many of them that they attacked relentlessly, as if they didn't care about their lives. Even when they saw countless of their companions being killed, they showed no fear or hesitation, as if they were being controlled.
They chose to win by sheer numbers, and some of them managed to evade the Phoenix Feather Sword's attacks, finding an opening to strike Long Chuqing from the side.
Fortunately, the protective shield erected by Feifeng was able to keep these bats that had slipped through the net out.
Long Chuqing also used ice crystals formed from water to kill the swarm of bats that attacked.
"Qingqing," Feifeng reminded her, "I noticed a few people outside approaching this way."
"They're probably the patrol guards from the villa! They probably saw the swarm of bats and came to check," Long Chuqing said.
Fei Feng sensed them carefully again, and as they drew closer, she detected several familiar auras.
"It's not patrolling guards...it's the Prince and Qingying and the others who have arrived."
"Xiao Han! Why are they here?" Long Chuqing asked, puzzled.
Fei Feng said decisively, "Is there any need to guess? The Prince must be here to see you."
"Didn't he know that you suffer from cold air entering your body every fifteenth of the month? He must have been worried about you, which is why he took time out of his busy schedule to rush back to the city. But when he returned to the palace, he found that you had actually gone out. So he questioned Lin Mama and Ziguang. Through questioning and some speculation, he guessed that you had come to the villa, which is why he rushed here overnight."
Feifeng was particularly satisfied with her analysis: Haha... She's really a genius; she managed to deduce such a complex problem.
"I must say, the prince is really good to you."
Long Chuqing did not deny Fei Feng's words. If Xiao Han really came to the manor, then he must have come to find her.
The Phoenix Feather Sword flew up and down in the courtyard, leaving many afterimages, constantly killing the attacking bats.
Even with heavy casualties, the bat swarm showed no sign of stopping their attack.
After being killed by Feng Yu, the bats began to fall like raindrops, and as far as the eye could see, many bat corpses had fallen to the ground.
The hot spring pool was also affected, and Long Chuqing quickly got out of the pool.
As soon as she left the hot spring, a chill swept over her from all directions, and the water droplets on her face instantly froze into frost.
After taking only two steps, Long Chuqing found it difficult to move her legs. Only then did she notice that the wet clothes clinging to her body had become stiff from the cold.
"There's actually such a drawback?"
Long Chuqing was somewhat taken aback. The power of this chilling aura exceeded her expectations, comparable to water turning into ice instantly, which was truly terrifying.
"Chu Qing, are you inside?"
Xiao Han's voice rang out from outside the courtyard.
He saw the bats flying towards the courtyard, and he wondered if they were heading towards Chu Qing, which made him uneasy.
Even so, we cannot rashly barge in.
"Chu Qing, Chu Qing... are you inside?"
Not hearing a response, Xiao Han became even more anxious and continued to shout loudly into the courtyard, his voice very urgent.
He could hear quite a commotion coming from inside, including the clanging of swords as they were swung and the shrill screeching of bats.
Standing outside the courtyard gate, he could still smell the stench of blood emanating from inside, and he knew something had happened.
Long Chuqing used her inner strength to shatter all the clothes on her body that had been frozen stiff, and was able to escape, but the clothes were ruined.
She quickly put on the clothes that were prepared to the side, then put the Phoenix Feather Sword back into her hand, and the Phoenix Feather quickly transformed into a whip.
"I'm here, come in."
Upon hearing Long Chuqing's response, Xiao Han immediately pushed open the door and entered.
Upon entering, he saw bats attacking Long Chuqing from all directions.
"Chu Qing." Xiao Han rushed towards her.
Upon reaching Long Chuqing's side, Xiao Han quickly removed his outer cloak and draped it over her shoulders, then took the whip from her hand to deal with the bats that were attacking them.
"Be careful." Long Chuqing wrapped her outer cloak tighter around herself and took a few steps back.
"Bronze, bring the men in."
The group of Qing Tong waiting outside had long wanted to rush in, but they dared not enter rashly. If Miss Ruolong were still soaking in the hot spring, and they saw something they shouldn't, their eyes might be in danger.
Upon hearing the prince call for help, they rushed in immediately.
Upon entering, I was immediately shocked by what I saw. The ground and the hot spring pool were covered with the remains of many bats, a huge, dark mass.
Because the lantern was dim, the bloodstains on the ground were not very clear, but the smell of blood and the stench of bats in the air were very strong.
