Chapter 169: Owl Crying in the Deep Mountains

The python is a super-large creature. The sandworm is one level smaller in comparison. Its strength and agility are not as good as the python, so it is at a disadvantage in the confrontation.

Fortunately, Jiang Feng is not fighting alone.

Wang Daqing did not forget his duty as an MT. He bravely rushed up with a large shield and joined forces with Jiang Feng to attack the python and help her share the pressure.

Ma Tao needs to take care of three things on the battlefield.

As a priest, the most important job is of course to pay attention to the health of the front-line teammates, to heal the sandworm and Wang Daqing in time, or to apply "blade protection" to reduce half the damage.

Ma Tao also took the time to fire a shotgun to directly damage the python.

Finally, he had to take care of Li Jiajia beside him, and from time to time he blessed her with "Secondary Anti-Enemy First Move" to ensure that even if her pistol could not hit the python, at least it would not accidentally hurt friendly forces.

In fact, Li Jiajia's performance far exceeded the expectations of her teammates.

When she first saw the python, this timid girl was almost scared to death.

However, when she had to fight, she quickly adjusted her mentality and bravely fulfilled her mission.

In addition to shooting occasionally, Li Jiajia focused most of her energy on supporting her teammates - holding the amplified harmonica in her left hand, she continued to play the "Song of Courage".

This signature professional ability of the bard can boost the morale of friendly forces within 60 feet (20 meters) around, and gain advantages in attack rolls and will saves.

Li Jiajia's harmonica has the "amplification" enchantment effect, which can double the playing radius, so that Gao Fei, who is farther away, can also gain the benefits provided by the "Song of Courage" - although Gao Fei, who is brutally ravaging the giant python at this time, does not need extra courage.

The most playful person in the team is Qi Tian.

He just took a ferocious bat to escape from the bamboo forest in an emergency, which triggered inspiration and opened the door to a new world.

Since he had personally verified that the ferocious bat could bear his 90-pound weight in a short period of time, Qi Tian was not polite. He tied himself tightly to the back of the ferocious bat with a belt, rode the bat to the sky, and frequently shot at the giant python from a high position, enjoying the joy of freeloading.

Gao Fei singled out a giant python and successfully killed it. Almost at the same time, Jiang Feng and others also teamed up to kill another giant python, and the five of them shared 1,100 experience points equally.

Gao Fei enjoyed the experience points of a giant python alone, which was not too little, but not too much either.

It was a big span for Sky Special Police to upgrade from level 5 to level 6, which required 7,500 experience points. Gao Fei had to kill at least six more giant pythons to upgrade.

However, there were no other giant pythons to hunt in the bamboo forest, and there was no need to upgrade the level of the secondary profession for the time being, so he saved these 1,100 experience points for emergency use.

After the battle, it was already 11 o'clock in the afternoon.

The mission was urgent, so Gao Fei and his companions did not dare to delay any longer. They took a short rest and continued on their way.

Going straight through the vast bamboo forest like a blue sea, a ravine appeared in front of everyone. The giant panda breeding base was in the ravine, and there was a bluestone staircase leading directly to the destination.

Gao Fei and his companions walked down the steep mountain road. When they were about to reach the base, a strange bird cry suddenly came from the forest in front.

It sounded like an owl calling, but it was even more sharp and piercing, and the echo echoed in the empty valley for a long time.

Gao Fei hurriedly stopped and exchanged glances with his teammates, feeling that the situation was not good.

Qi Tian blew a whistle with his little finger in his mouth, summoning back the ferocious bats hovering over the base for reconnaissance. After some spiritual communication, he looked back at his teammates with a gloomy face, and told them the bad news word by word.

"We are in big trouble!"

"Tell me in detail, what's the situation?" Ma Tao asked.

"Don't let the panda get into trouble?" Li Feifei's voice was trembling with worry.

"The pandas are fine for now, but it's hard to say how long they can hold out."

Under the nervous gaze of his companions, Qi Tian continued, "Four very ferocious mutant monsters are attacking the base. The high-voltage power grid and iron fence have been broken by them, and the bulletproof glass has also been smashed. The park staff seem to have moved the pandas indoors for protection. The specific situation is still unclear."

"What kind of monster is it? It's so powerful that even the high-voltage power grid and bulletproof glass wall can't stop it!" Ma Tao's face changed slightly.

"With the intelligence level of the fierce bat, I can't see through the details of those monsters, but I can share the impression that the fierce bat has after seeing the monster. It looks like a huge brown bear, covered with fluffy and dense feathers, but the head looks like an owl..."

"Owlbear! It must be an owlbear!" Wang Daqing rushed to say, "I've seen this kind of monster in the Paladin module! At that time, I was already a level 5 Paladin, and I had two NPC helpers of the same level. We worked together to deal with a mad owlbear that broke into the pasture and killed cattle and sheep, but it still took three reloads before it could be defeated. Just barely kill it!"

"I've also heard rumors about the owlbear..." Li Jiajia timidly interrupted, "In the game, a bard wrote a ballad about the owlbear, saying that this monster was created by a crazy wizard who mixed the blood of a brown bear and an owl and cast a spell."

"The owlbear in the game can be a product of magic, but how did the owlbear in the real world come from?" Gao Fei muttered to himself, "It can't be that a bear or an owl was infected by magic and mutated spontaneously, right?"

"We'll discuss the origin of the owl bear later. The most important thing now is to get to the base as soon as possible and stop the four crazy owl bears from attacking the pandas and staff!" Ma Tao added with a guilty conscience, "If we have the ability to stop them..."

"Anyway, I'll turn into a dragon and fly over first." Gao Fei made the decision without hesitation.

Ma Tao nodded, and suddenly his eyes flashed. He grabbed Gao Fei's arm and asked anxiously: "Brother Fei! I have an idea! Can you fly with people?"

Gao Fei was stunned for a moment, touched his chin and thought: "I haven't tried it, but judging from the strength and physique of the red dragon form, it shouldn't be a problem to carry two or three people on your back to fly together."

Ma Tao breathed a sigh of relief and turned to ask Qi Tian: "What is the upper limit of your bat's load-bearing flight?"

"The maximum is 100 kilograms. If it's heavier, it won't fly." Qi Tian smiled bitterly.

"Then, Xiaotian, you ride the bat, Brother Fei takes Jiang Feng and Brother Daqing, and if there is spare energy, take me and Jiajia, fly directly to the base to stop the owl bear from committing crimes!" Ma Tao said.

"You can try." Gao Fei smiled and patted his old friend on the shoulder, "Brother Tao, you have matured and are becoming more and more like a general!"

"Stop making fun of me, kid. Change quickly!" Ma Tao laughed and scolded and slapped his hand away.
