Chapter 269 Vampire Bats

Copperfield's face was so gloomy that it could drip water, and he growled: "Craig, why didn't you tell us such important news earlier? Do you know how many more villagers this delay has harmed?"

Craigie couldn't help but defended: "From the beginning, our suspicion direction was fixed on the Mage Tower of Good Luck Fang. We suspected that it was the red robed mage or those drow elves who did it. We did not go to Cormanso Tower at all. Thinking above the forest.

What's more, the cave was trampled down by the wild boar. We only glanced at it a few times and didn't go deep. Who would think of it? If Mr. Gavin hadn't asked about it, I wouldn't have remembered it. I was not the only one present. How could they not have remembered it? "

"They can't remember it. That's a matter of course, but you are different. You are their leader and you should notice all the unusual things." Copperfield's execution was obvious to his son and ordinary soldiers and villagers. Double standards, just shout out, you are Copperfield's son, you should bear more.

Seeing that Craigie wanted to retort, Regina hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Now is not the time to hold people accountable. The most important thing is to determine who the enemy is and how to successfully rescue the villagers."

"careful."

"Get away!"

Zhizhi!

A dark cloud burst out of the dense forest of Cormanso.

Gavin, who had been riding closely behind the dog demon, was the first to bear the brunt.

But before the dark clouds could reach him, they dispersed faster.

A dazzling light emitted from Gavin, and the second before the dark clouds rushed out, he had already finished putting on his armor, with the Crown Shield in one hand and the Spinner Cannon in the other.

The light emitted from the battle armor revealed every detail of the dark clouds. It was a group of bats, abnormally fat vampire bats with blood-red eyes and exposed fangs.

If you are wrapped in this cloud of vampire bats, even a warrior will be disabled or disabled.

The light emanating from the battle armor is the nemesis of this creature.

Caught off guard, the sudden burst of light blinded many of them.

Although bats do not rely on their eyes to see, they still inevitably panic when they suddenly become blind, disrupting the entire cloud of vampire bats, not caring about attacking others, and trying to pull up quickly.

Just because they want to run away doesn't mean Gavin will let them go easily.

Crystal cluster.

Pointing his hand at the revolver cannon, with the injection of spiritual energy, the entire gun body lit up, especially the crystal pendant in the lower half of the barrel. Mysterious spiritual patterns flowed on it, and countless silver stars gathered quickly, turning into tiny, The finely divided material, not much bigger than a grain of rice, was blasted out overwhelmingly.

This is no longer the improved version of the crystal cluster that Gavin used to use spiritual crystals before.

But in a real sense, it is a crystal cluster that extracts ectoplasm from the star realm.

The crystal cluster amplified by the revolver cannon is still slightly weaker than the improved version Gavin spent money on.

But it doesn’t cost anything, it only requires energy points, and it doesn’t hurt every time you use it.

The crystal cluster has once again proven through actual combat that it was previously ineffective against floating spirit groups. That is because the enemy is too special and is frighteningly powerful against material clusters.

The cloud of vampire bats trying to escape was like dumplings, falling in large pieces, at least forty or fifty.

The remaining vampire bat cloud, without waiting for Gavin's second attack, returned to the Cormanzo Forest and disappeared into the darkness.

If there weren't a large number of fat bats, flapping and screaming on the ground, one couldn't help but suspect that everything that just happened was an illusion.

Most of the vampire bats shot down by the crystal cluster were injured but not dead. Compared with hitting their bodies, it was more likely to hit their broad fleshy wings.

Gavin turned over and dismounted, trampling two vampire bats that were still full of ferocity and trying to attack him into a pulp. He pinched the two severely injured flesh wings and lifted them up like a chicken, observing them carefully for a few seconds. Said: "It is indeed a mutated vampire bat."

Copperfield's face had become extremely ugly and he said: "So, the culprit for the large number of missing people in our village is a vampire?"

A large number of abducted humans.

Silently charming humans.

Wherever it passes, the plants wither.

Vampire bats are out and about.

A series of information merged together, and the direction has become very clear.

"Yes." Gavin nodded, "It's not just a vampire, it's probably an elf vampire. A hungry vampire who has just been awakened. A normal vampire doesn't need so much blood. Now there's a question to explain. It doesn’t make sense, vampires usually prey directly, why bother taking people away?”

Gavin did not dwell on this issue for too long, but glanced at everyone and continued: "If we are facing one or a group of vampires, so many of us will not become a kind of vampire." If you don’t help, it will become a trouble.”

Copperfield obviously knew something about vampires and nodded in agreement: "Yes, the vampire's ability to dominate will make us fall into chaos and internal fighting. To deal with this group of bloodthirsty monsters, we should adopt elite tactics to keep them all here." , a few of us went in to explore the situation."

"General Copperfield stays, Miss Regina and I, plus my servants, are enough." Gavin rejected Copperfield's proposal.

The reason for excluding Copperfield is not that his combat power is not strong enough. On the contrary, it is because he is too powerful and he dare not take him.

Gavin is very aware of the shortcomings of the warriors. He doesn't want his powerful warriors to become the first hurdle he must overcome when he encounters a vampire.

"The matter of our village is completely up to you to take risks..." Copperfield certainly knows that he is not in an advantageous position when facing a vampire, but he is sad about this hurdle in his heart, and it is difficult for him to sit here and wait.

Gavin said solemnly: "They are not only the general's villagers, but also my compatriots. I will do my best to ensure their safety. Besides, we are just going to investigate and further verify the situation. If we really need to go deep into the nest and face a vampire, our current preparations are far from enough. We also need to find corresponding reinforcements."

Speaking of reinforcements, the first person Gavin thought of was not Lord Virginia, but Daniel.

This extraordinary holy warrior is professional in dealing with vampires.

Regina agreed, "Village Chief, we also need someone to look after this place. If a vampire's servant rushes out, we will need your help to solve the problem. If we really have a problem inside, I don't want the village chief to rush to help. Instead, I want you to go to Dun Hill in Tasser Valley as quickly as possible and seek help from the paladins of the Hammer of Justice Monastery."

This bard lady has arranged her retreat clearly.

"Okay." Copperfield took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.

In fact, he also knew that if he was facing a vampire, it would be wisest to seek help from the paladins.

But so many villagers who were abducted could not wait that long.

While checking and sorting out his equipment, Gavin said to Regina, "Wait a minute, our main task is to investigate and determine whether our enemy this time is a vampire. We will lead the way and you will be responsible for the rear. Once you encounter an enemy that you cannot resist, please ask Miss Regina to escape as soon as possible. We all have ways to escape."

A luxurious suit and the Dragon Oak Mother Tree's infallible teleportation are Gavin's biggest trump cards, especially the Crown Shield, which makes him immune to charm control, otherwise he would have gone back to ask for reinforcements.

It's not shameful to eat free food.

It's shameful if you can't eat.

Gavin naturally has his own calculations when bringing Regina with him.

First, an extraordinary bard does have a unique ability advantage in resisting the charm of vampires, not to mention that Regina herself is an expert in this area and her resistance must be higher.

Second, he has tasted the sweetness of an extraordinary bard composing odes for him. Some things can only be widely known and bring enough fame to himself if they are sung.

Different environments require different things.

In the Rocky Land, Gavin doesn't need fame, because he knows that the Kobolds don't value this. They come to you because you are strong enough to feed them and you have a dragon.

The latter is much more important than fame.

In the Valley, it is different. Gavin not only needs fame, but also a lot of positive fame. With this blessing, it will be easier to attract refugees to live here or deal with kind forces and people.

Third, Gavin knows the true details of the other party. His background is unusually strong. From beginning to end, he has not shown his true strength. Gavin has reason to believe that her fighting power is not much inferior to Daniel.

"Okay." Regina agreed neatly.

She is not purely heartless, but she believes that Gavin does have a trump card that she doesn't know.

The prophecy spell is useless to Gavin, but the human connection is very useful.

Gavin's true identity had been uncovered by Regina through the merchants. He should be the half-elf who led a group of dog-headed men in the Rock Land and became famous.

In this matter, Gavin did not hide at all, because he could not hide and there was no need to.

It would have been fine if no one had noticed Gavin before. Once they noticed, it would not be difficult to find out this point. After all, the Black Well was well-known in Cormyr and the Valley.

Under the guidance of the dog demon, Gavin and Regina entered the Great Forest of Cormanthor carefully one after the other.

The trees in the Great Forest of Cormanthor are mainly huge maple trees and towering oak trees, which are at least hundreds of years old, and their canopies are connected into one piece.

Even if you enter it in the middle of the day and walk on the ground, you can't expect to see any sunlight, because it is all blocked by layers of tree canopies. They will make full use of every bit of sunlight.

Along the way, not only the number of bats is frightening, but the number of rats and wolves has also increased significantly.

However, due to the dog demon, the wolves did not dare to approach at all, and all ran away with their tails between their legs.

This reaction was abnormal in itself.

The normal reaction of wolves when seeing the dog demon was to run over and pledge allegiance.

The situation before them was more like they were caught between two powerful men, and no one dared to provoke them, so running away was the best choice.

When the branches of the surrounding plants began to twist and grow thorns, and the shadows cast by the huge trees looked extremely haggard and ready to move, as if something was about to jump out, Gavin knew that the target they were looking for was within reach.

All these abnormal phenomena were telling outsiders in disguise that there was a vampire's nest here, and the vampires living in it were extremely powerful.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Three sharp whistles sounded, and three thin and short arrows were nailed not far in front of Gavin.

Gavin could have put up a shield to protect his face.

A shrill voice came from the depths of the jungle, "Don't go any further. There is a powerful evil ahead that you can't afford to provoke."

Gavin only saw clearly at this time that the sharp arrow that fell at his feet was a sentinel arrow, which was specially used for warning.

If the opponent wanted to shoot him, he would have no chance to put up a shield with the archery skills he showed.

Elf?

Gavin was not surprised but happy.

He was just worrying about not having a source of intelligence, and the intelligence was delivered to him.
