Chapter 104 Enjoying the Blessings of Two Women? A Night of Ghosts Strikes!
Among them, a particularly large male porcupine was especially eye-catching.
Its quills were larger and had a metallic sheen, clearly indicating that it was the leader of the porcupines.
The aura emanating from it indicated that it had risen to the mid-level of apprentice, and its strength was not to be underestimated.
The dozen or so female porcupines surrounding it, though slightly less formidable, also possessed the ability to launch long-range attacks using their hard quills.
Once the attack is launched, it will be enough to form a dense web of death.
Puff! Even porcupines can enjoy the bliss of being surrounded by pigs.
Fang Zhou thought this through, but his face remained calm.
These ferocious porcupines dared to occupy the campsite he had chosen for the night, so they couldn't be allowed to stay.
Since they can attack from a distance, the only option is to surround them from all sides and then launch a full-scale attack!
Ark quickly formulated a battle plan, directing most of its forces to deploy in formation around the building, using the terrain to encircle the porcupine horde.
Then, he selected a small group of swift skeletons and ordered them to circle around to the flanks and use the complex terrain of the ruins to sneak into the building.
In the darkness, the skeletons, using the faint remaining light, silently approached the hiding place of the ferocious porcupines.
The male porcupine, who was indulging in a sweet embrace, was the first to sense the danger.
It stood up, looked around, and quickly spotted the cluster of skull soul fires in the darkness.
!
The male porcupine let out a deafening roar, and the female porcupines behind him also raised their back quills, ready to fight back.
The main battlefield instantly descended into chaos.
The quills on the porcupine's back shot towards the approaching skeletons like a dense rain of arrows, sparks flying as they collided with their skeletal bodies.
However, under the Ark's command, the skeletons skillfully dodged or blocked the flying thorns.
The hollow skeletal body then revealed its unique advantages.
As long as they didn't hit the skull containing the soul fire, many thorns simply pierced through the gaps in the bones without causing any effective damage.
At that moment, the skeletons that had circled around approached silently like ghosts.
They suddenly leaped out of the shadows and launched a swift charge. The ferocious porcupine herd only had time to fire two volleys of arrows before the overwhelmingly numerous skeleton army successfully closed in.
As soon as the battle began, several apprentice-level female porcupines screamed in agony under the unsportsmanlike attacks of the skeletons, with one even collapsing from serious injury.
Seeing this, the male porcupine was enraged and tried to break through the encirclement to rescue its companion.
It charged furiously against the skeletons' defenses, but the Ark kept a close eye on its movements.
Seeing that the male porcupine had made a mistake, in order to finish the battle quickly, Ark immediately launched a double skeletal attack.
Skeletal Garg!
Bone Spears!
Faced with the incredibly sharp bone spears, the porcupine's prized glossy skin offered absolutely no protection.
As the bone spear pierced his body, the male porcupine let out a final, painful roar, finally collapsing to the ground. After struggling a few times, it fell silent.
With the leader down, the remaining dozen or so female porcupines lost their will to fight and scattered in all directions, but ultimately could not escape the encirclement of the skeleton army.
After a quick and easy battle, the ruins returned to peace, and the threat of the ferocious porcupine herd was completely eliminated.
Hunting points +33.
"Soul Power +1".
Fangzhou tirelessly directed the skeletons to both clear and collect the spoils scattered throughout the building ruins and to set up tents on higher ground.
By using the ruins and debris to build a camp, which can be used for both offense and defense, the Ark can be safely rested under the cover of night.
Soon, he stood in front of the tent, counting the spoils the skeletons had collected.
The keratinous layer on the back of a ferocious porcupine is a good material for making arrows, and it is naturally on the materials list of Haicheng Military Academy.
Fangzhou estimated that the materials this group of ferocious porcupines provided him were worth at least 10 contribution points.
The night wind howled through the ruins, brushing against the ark's cheeks.
After setting up camp, he should have gone to his tent to rest, but he remained somewhat restless.
Just now, the army had thoroughly searched the ruins of the collapsed building, but only found a little bit of ferocious porcupine droppings.
This indicates that the ferocious porcupine herd that was previously wiped out by the Ark was not the native inhabitants of this area.
They only recently occupied this place.
Where did the monsters that used to inhabit this town go?
Soft whimpers echoed in every corner of the city, like countless ghosts on a parade.
Gazing at the gradually fading magical moss in the distance, Fang Zhou frowned slightly, a sense of doubt creeping into his heart.
As night falls, a time when all sorts of nocturnal monsters should be active, they seem to have vanished en masse.
Only silence and cold remained in the vast ruins.
The cold wind howled among the ruins and broken walls, as if whispering some unknown secret.
Suddenly, the temperature plummeted, becoming even colder than during the day in the howling winds of the frozen wasteland.
This cold is not only physical, but also a chilling cold that penetrates to the very marrow of the soul.
It was as if the skeletal doppelganger was in the desolate wasteland of the underworld, mercilessly bathed in the cold light of the blood moon.
Ark sensed an unprecedented deathly silence and eeriness.
This phenomenon was extremely strange, which made him extremely vigilant.
He immediately took out his hunting recorder and tried to look up information about the town ruins in hopes of finding some clues.
However, just as Fangzhou was anxiously flipping through the documents, the recorder's signal suddenly cut off, emitting a piercing buzzing sound.
The text on the screen vanished instantly, leaving only a blank screen.
This unexpected situation was like the last straw, bringing Fang Zhou's anxiety to its peak.
When faced with unknown dangers, caution is always the best strategy.
After weighing the options, he made a decisive decision: to evacuate the eerie town ruins and choose to camp in the distant frozen wasteland. Although this meant he would face an attack from nocturnal monsters and would not be able to get proper rest, it was clearly the lesser of two evils compared to facing unknown threats in the ruins.
Ark quickly issued the order, and the army immediately packed their belongings and quietly withdrew from the building ruins.
He carefully retreated to a safe distance along the path he had come from.
In the darkness, the army of skeletons moved like a swarm of ghosts, trying to avoid attracting any unnecessary attention.
The outline of the town ruins gradually blurred under the night sky, and the cold wind howled in my ears on the frozen wasteland.
The biting cold made even the physically robust Ark shiver.
Although such coldness is chilling, compared to the bone-chilling coldness of the town ruins, the chill of this wasteland seems much more welcoming.
At least, the cold here is a physical chill that is visible to the naked eye and felt on the skin, rather than the invisible yet piercing atmosphere of despair and death in the ruins.
