At this point, inside the bus.
Professor Tang found himself completely immobile.
It was clear that his mind was perfectly clear, but his body was out of control. He wanted to run, but his legs were rooted in the bus like lead, unable to move a single bit. His arms could not be raised at all either. He suddenly turned into a statue, frozen in place, and could not move, and around him were densely mutant bats!
He was surrounded by mutant bats!
The monsters each had human faces, but had bat wings and sharp fangs. Moreover, their height exceeds 1 meter.
The visual impact of such a huge bat was extremely shocking, especially the bat hanging upside down on the roof of the bus, their heads were also reversed. Being stared at by these bats, Professor Tang only felt like falling into an ice cellar, and the blood in his whole body almost froze.
He had been devoted to scientific research for many years and had never seen so many terrifying monsters.
The leader of the bat who had been hanging upside-down on the roof of the bus could actually speak. Her cold gaze stared at Professor Tang tightly, and said sharply, “Chase, you can’t let any of them go!”
At her command, the swarm of bats surrounding the bus that did not manage to squeeze in immediately fluttered their wings and flew after them in the direction that Yue Xingwen’s team had fled——
With the light of the headlights, Professor Tang could clearly see the black swarm of bats flying past the bus.
There were about ten bats left inside the bus, and they surrounded Professor Tang, licking their lips and staring at their prey like hungry beasts. Professor Tang’s back was tingled from the stare and his heart was overwhelmed with grief!
That Yue Xingwen said, “We will protect you,” “Don’t worry, we will escort you to the Genetic Research Center in City F safely” … As a result, as soon as the data chip was taken, the group left him behind?!
Their goal was really the data chip, and they ran away when they got the chip.
Bunch of liars!
What was that about buying him oranges before you left?
Professor Tang was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he could no longer be bothered to dwell on this as several of the surrounding mutant bats suddenly lunged towards him, their sharp fangs in their open bloody mouths making one’s heart tremble at the sight!
A mutant bat with a cute little girl’s face aimed at his neck and bit hard——
Professor Tang closed his eyes in dismay.
The mutant bat next to him also flew around and the female bat went to bite Professor Tang’s neck aorta, while the other four male bats then grabbed Professor Tang’s hands and feet, biting down on his wrists and ankles, wanting to share a little blood to eat.
They had been hungry for a long time, and they finally had food.
The hungry bats were quite excited, and quite ready to eat Professor Tang clean at once.
The cold sensation coming from his neck and the eerie touch of licking on the skin of his hands and feet sent chills down Professor Tang’s spine—— It felt terrible to be treated as food!
Completely unable to move, he could only stand still and be surrounded and attacked by five bats, his face was unusually pale. The moment the bats bit his neck hard, he only felt a blackness and a dizziness coming from his head.
Before losing consciousness, he heard the female bat’s voice ringing in his ears, “He passed out?”
“Boss, I’ll hold him while you eat him slowly.”
Professor Tang rolled his eyes once again. He must be a scientist who died in the most undignified manner in human history.
However, just after he passed out, the female bat bit into his neck, and a sharp pain actually came from her teeth, as if she had bitten into hard steel!
We’re sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so we’re going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.
She was stunned for a moment and asked, “What’s going on? His neck can’t be bitten?”

He struggled to wake up, but could not open his eyes.
The female bat, who was the leader, ordered coldly, “You four, keep an eye on him and eat later. Others, follow me to clean up those who escaped—— Destroy them all, leave no one behind!”
“Yes!” The voices rang out in unison around.
Only four bats were left inside the bus to guard the ‘bitten Professor Tang’, and the other vampire bats all flew out to find Yue Xingwen and the others.
At this time, Yue Xingwen had already turned on the whole group acceleration skill ‘Fast as Lightning’, and was speeding towards the bus!
There were so many bats that it would be easy to set the bus on fire directly; After all, there were several barrels of gasoline on the bus, as well as their stored supplies. Blowing it up would mean that they would have to walk if they went to City F later.
Therefore, Yue Xingwen abandoned the fire attack option and decided to activate the Torrential Rain again.
Discharging acid rain directly near the bus could destroy the bus. It was best to draw the bat swarm out to kill it. What made Yue Xingwen happy was that although those vampire bats did not have a high IQ, after finding that they could not bite Professor Tang, they also knew to turn around and deal with others first.
Under the leadership of the bat leader, a large number of bats flew over with their wings——
At this point, their location was about 50 meters away from the bus.
The bats were so fast that they flew in front of them in the blink of an eye. The humanoid bats that covered the sky squealed, a scene that was comparable to a horror movie!
It was dark all around, and it was difficult to see the movements of the bat swarm. Xin Yan’s right hand jerked up, and countless spirit lamps shot out from his hand, one after another, soon surrounding the crowd in a warm circle of light.
Under the illumination of the spirit lamps, everyone clearly saw how terrifying the bat swarm above them was.
Bats had poor eyesight and relied on echoes to locate the location of the target when acting at night, but the transformed ‘mutant bat’ was not afraid of light. Their vision and hearing had been strengthened. Finding that Xin Yan surrounding them with spirit lamps, they were not afraid, and they rushed fiercely towards Yue Xingwen and the others——
With the help of the light of the spirit lamps, Yue Xingwen quickly opened his idiom dictionary and said, “Torrential Rain!”
As he recited the idiom, a large 100 square meters of dark clouds suddenly formed overhead. Seeing that a torrential rain was about to fall, Xin Yan immediately raised his hand and injected the extremely corrosive Aqua Regia into the clouds.
The downpour, mixed with strong acid, poured down from the sky——
The bats within the Torrential Rain’s range suddenly let out a mournful scream!
The corrosiveness of strong acid made their bodies instantly melt into a pool of blood. Seeing a large number of companions sacrificed, the bat leader hurriedly said, “Dodge the rain!”
The mutant bats moved swiftly as they flapped their huge wings and darted out of the Torrential Rain.
However, after the upgrade, Yue Xingwen’s Torrential Rain could move. Seeing them dodging to the sides, Yue Xingwen’s right hand swiped towards the side, and the clouds in the sky suddenly moved to the right, and the bat swarm that was dodging to the right was washed by acid rain, squealing and screaming incessantly!
This wave of operation wiped out almost half of the bats.
The leader of the bat shouted, “Fly upwards, fly through the clouds!”
The remaining bats’ eyes were red. The death of their companions making them turn fiercer, squealing and howling as they flapped their wings and quickly flew high up into the clouds.
The Torrential Rain could only move horizontally, not vertically upwards. Yue Xingwen’s Torrential Rain could really no longer attack them, so he simply put away the Torrential Rain. Seeing the rain disappear, those bats immediately swooped down, turning their claws towards Yue Xingwen and his teammates!
Zhuo Feng concentrated his gaze, looking at Lin Manluo.
Both of them raised their hands tacitly at the same time and said, “Series Circuit!”
“Twisted Vine!”
Several successive green vines swept and twisted all the way up towards the sky, quickly forming a natural green defensive umbrella, propped up overhead to block the swooping of the bat swarm. Zhuo Feng’s golden electricity shot out at the same time, and the Series Circuit effect caused several bats that rushed ahead to be directly burned to a crisp!
The vine could conduct electricity, Zhuo Feng injected electricity into the vines and the golden electricity flowed rapidly along the vines. In the blink of an eye, an artificial grid that was hard to break through was actually formed overhead them!
The bats that hit this ‘power grid’ were all electrocuted and killed.
They flew over one after another, were knocked out by the power grid, and most of them died in the blink of an eye.
Yue Xingwen praised, “Beautiful!”
Senior brother Zhuo and senior sister Lin’s cooperation, the vine power grid, defending while attacking at the same time was even better than Xiao Nian’s walls against such flying type monsters like this.
The bat leader had an extremely ugly face and sharply said, “Retreat!”
The remaining bats heard the leader’s order and hurriedly turned around, flying to the rear, but Yue Xingwen would not let them go easily. He looked at Zhang Xiaonian and said, “Stop them!”
Zhang Xiaonian erected a wall in front of them at an extremely fast speed.
The hard wall rose up from the ground, growing all the way up to a height of over 10 meters in an instant, directly blocking the bat swarm’s path.
Jiang Pingce’s right hand was raised. Countless transparent and thin triangular rulers shot out like a rainstorm, and many of the bats flying in the air were shot in the neck by him, killing them directly in one blow!
Zhuo Feng followed and raised his right hand, “Fall!”
The gravity effect caused nearby bats to instantly land on the ground and were directly smashed into meat pies.
Ke Shaobin released Xiao Tu, who moved fast with pulleys under its feet, sweeping red lasers all the way. The fan-shaped laser passed through the bats’ bodies like sharp arrows, shooting down the surviving bats.
Liu Zhaoqing followed suit by using his scalpel.
Triangular ruler, laser, and senior brother Liu’s flying scalpel——
Various weapons were shot together, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
It was not until Jiang Pingce’s triangular ruler accurately hit the bat leader that the surrounding finally quieted down.
The sharp triangular ruler actually plunged right into the bat leader’s throat, killing her with a single blow! The seemingly light and thin triangular ruler, when used as a weapon, was terrifying, and it also made the teammates frightened.
With the corpses of bats all over the ground, Yue Xingwen glanced at the chaotic battlefield and said, “Go and save Professor Tang!”
The four mutant bats inside the bus had long heard the scream of their companions outside, and they tried to take Professor Tang to escape, but strangely enough, they could not move Professor Tang with all their might. This Professor Tang was as heavy as a thousand pounds!
They had to leave Professor Tang and rushed out of the bus.
As soon as they came out, they heard a girl’s gentle shout, “Sentencing four suspects to three years in prison!”
Four iron cages fell from the sky, instantly shrouding them in the cages.
The mutant bats widened their eyes and flapped around the cage for a moment before Yue Xingwen looked to Ke Shaobin and said, “Scan and see if they have control chips implanted in their brains?”
Ke Shaobin nodded and let Xiao Tu scan them with radar detection, “Everyone has a metal chip in their head.”
Yue Xingwen concluded, “It seems that mass-produced mutants, which are biochemical weapons, are controlled by the organization through a chip implanted in their brains to control their actions. These mutant bats received the organization’s order to slaughter us.”
Shivers ran down their spines as they listened.
Qin Miao said coldly, “We have special abilities and still take a lot of effort to deal with them. Ordinary humans won’t have a chance to fight back if they attack human cities directly.”
Imagine thousands of mutant bats raiding human cities at night, and these vampire bats’ combat power could kill ordinary humans on several streets in a second. Wouldn’t many humans be bitten to death?
City C had fallen, and they had been taking a remote path these days. They did not know where the power of mutants had expanded. Judging from today’s large-scale dispatch of the mutant bats, the situation was not promising. In case City F was also occupied by mutants and the Genetic Research Center fell, how could they complete the task?
Yue Xingwen took a deep breath, suppressing the uneasiness in his heart and said, “Let’s see how Professor Tang is doing.”
When the five minutes were up, Yue Xingwen took the lead and got on the bus, intending to give Professor Tang an orange so that he could eat it to calm down, but he was surprised to find Professor Tang lying on the floor of the bus with his eyes tightly closed and his limbs in the shape of ‘大’.
Yue Xingwen stepped forward in two steps, squatted down and gently shook Professor Tang’s shoulder, “Professor Tang? Are you okay?”
Liu Zhaoqing put his finger on Professor Tang’s wrist and touched his pulse, and said, “His pulse is normal, he’s still alive.”
Ke Shaobin wondered, “So, has he passed out? Or is he pretending to sleep?”
Liu Zhaoqing probed the other party’s nose and said, “It’s not pretending, he’s passed out.”
Lan Yarong smiled helplessly, looked at the man lying there sympathetically, and said, “Too much stimulation, exceeding the upper limit of his mental tolerance, so he’s passed out, I guess.”
Xu Yishen smiled and said, “Or maybe he’s pissed off by Xingwen. He must be thinking that you bastards actually left me alone, let me be besieged by bats, and said that you want to buy me oranges! You say that you will protect me? A bunch of scoundrels who leave me alone when in danger!”
Senior brother Xu imitated Professor Tang’s voice quite well, and everyone did not know whether to laugh or cry as they listened.
Yue Xingwen held his forehead gently and said, “At that time, the situation was critical and I couldn’t explain it to him. *sigh* It’s hard work for him.”
Jiang Pingce said faintly, “He is passed out, but it’s actually quite good.”
Everyone looked back at Jiang Pingce.
Jiang Pingce continued, “That way, he won’t give us any trouble, just carry him straight to the Genetic Research Center.”
Everyone: “……”
The escorted NPC was stunned by their strange operation.
Could it be counted as completing the task if they carried an unconscious NPC to the end?
The author has something to say:
Professor Tang: Piss me off! I don’t want to see you!
Being NPC in horror or survival games, it’s always not easy
Thank you for your translation 🤍🤍🤍💙🤍💙💙
LMAO
for a cannon fodder, life truly isn’t easy! stay fighting Professor Tang this is the homestretch!
Such a big shame though, this must be one of my most favorite chapters so far.
