Home?
I wonder if my mother is all right?
He knew things might have changed after they returned, but Bernal’s heart remained calm.
Without the ability to feel sorrow, Bernal suddenly felt like he had become a monster.
He should be feeling sad, but he could only feel anger and fear.
Buzz!
His mind buzzed, and Bernal suddenly realized that his fear was fading.
Am I even denied the right to sense fear?
Buzz!
When the fear completely disappeared from Bernal’s heart, he realized that his anger was laughable.
“I guess that’s good too.”
“What can I do for you, Young Master?”
Hearing Bernal’s voice, Victor looked at him, puzzled.
“Nothing. You may carry on.”
Bernal shook his head. He looked around, tilted his head, and thought.
Isn’t this too slow?
The next moment, the black tide surged on the ground. As the black water advanced, the entire team began to accelerate.
That’s better.
Thud!
As Bernal controlled the black tide to speed up, a large tree at the side collapsed, and a huge black shadow darted out of the bushes.
“Be careful, Young Master. It is the Night Bat Ape!”
When the moonlight shone on the black shadow, its figure was completely revealed.
The so-called Night Bat Ape was a combination of a bat and an ape.
For some reason, when Bernal saw the so-called Night Bat Ape, he had this thought: It did not feel like a species from nature but like a product of some experiment.
“At night, this type of Night Bat Ape will become very active. Although it’s only at level three, under the moonlight at night, it can unleash the power of a level four.”
“The most important thing is that the Night Bat Apes often act in groups.
As soon as he finished speaking, black figures sprang out from the surroundings, either hanging from trees or flapping their wings as they looked over hungrily.
The moment they saw these Night Bat Apes, the knights immediately protected Bernard and formed a circle around him.
“As expected of the forest, it seems like it’s impossible to go home smoothly.”
At night, did they not even have the basic animal instinct to avoid danger?
Or was it that being in a group gave these monsters a sense of security?
“Alright, let me see how you guys perform after the transformation.”
As he spoke, the night bat apes were the first to attack.
Victor did not hesitate to release the battle aura in his body to counter the attack.
Unlike the silver battle aura from before, everyone’s battle aura, including Victor, had turned dark red.
Usually, the color of the battle aura represents the strength of the person, from weak to strong, and is ranked in order of bronze, silver, and gold.
However, some specific cultivation methods could change the color of the battle aura.
Combat Aura of a different color often had its specialty.
For example, the dark red battle energy released by Victor and the others now had the ability of corrosion.
The wound created by such a battle aura would be difficult to heal. At the same time, it began corroding away and gradually expanded until the victim’s death.
The nearest Night Black Ape was slashed to the ground by Victor. The wound was huge, but no blood flowed out.
The Night Bat Ape, who had been knocked down to the ground, began to go mad with bloodshot eyes.
Are they losing sanity?
Bernal, who was protected at the side, observed these Night Bat Apes with great interest.
When he saw the Night Bat Ape losing its sanity after corrosion from the battle aura and beginning to attack indiscriminately, excitement flashed in Bernal’s eyes.
Is it that painful?
Meanwhile, the Night Bat Apes were all startled by the unexpected attack from their companion.
They could not understand why their kind would attack them.
The situation immediately became chaotic.
The Night Bat Ape that got attacked had a temper as well. After the initial confusion, it quickly stood up to counterattack.
Soon, the Night Bat Apes began fighting each other.
The pressure on Victor’s side lessened greatly.
What happened next was simple. Facing an enemy that was divided internally, Victor quickly finished off the battle with his subordinates.
After more than half the Night Bat Apes were killed, the remaining Night Bat Apes gradually came to their senses as fear enveloped them.
Many lost their will to fight as they spread their wings and began to flee.
Seeing this, Victor stopped his attack and returned to Bernal’s side.
“Young Master, are you alright?”
Bernal shook his head to show that everything was fine.
He looked at the Night Bat Apes on the ground. Many of them were still barely alive.
Some of them were losing their lives bit by bit while they lost all hope of survival.
Since it’s so painful, let me give you a helping hand.
Gulp gulp!
A familiar sound reverberated through the forest.
The ground flowed again, and the black ocean swallowed all of these Night Bat Apes, whether they were alive or dead.
They should be useful after some modification.
With this thought, Bernal began to think about how to improve on them.
If it was just a random modification, the creatures after the transformation might not be as strong as before.
He had to consider all aspects.
Just like Victor and the others in Bernal’s dream, Rogeria’s modification of them was random.
Otherwise, the bloated meatball would not have appeared.
After settling the issue, Bernal and the others began their journey home.
On the way, Bernal began to think about his modification plan for the Night Bat Ape.
Hmm, there was indeed something strange.
In his initial observation of the Night Bat Ape’s body structure, Bernal confirmed his previous guess.
The internal structure of this demon gave him a strong sense of discordance. The connection between the bat’s wings and the ape’s body was not natural.
It was just that he did not understand how someone could forcefully combine these two types of creatures to the extent that they could reproduce normally.
After discovering the problem with the Night Bat Ape, Bernal suddenly developed a strong interest in this magical forest.
Why were there so many monsters here? Why was it so terrifying at night?
Why would those people choose to hold the ritual of the evil gods in this dangerous forest?
Bernal was filled with curiosity about all of this.
His instincts told him that there must be a secret more shocking than the Evil God hidden in this forest.
With this in mind, Bernal looked at Victor and asked, “Victor, do you know what this monster forest used to be like?”
