BXBX NOVEL Chapter 41: Sudden Appearance.
"This is bad..."
Caw!
Just as he was about to notify his group about the feeling that something/someone was approaching their location at an alarming rate... When suddenly out of nowhere, cries of dozens of birds resounded from the far sky in the distance.
Feeling that his soul shiver slightly after hearing the cries of the birds, Leo immediately raised his head toward the horizon in horror.
In an instant, Leo saw black dots of dozens of birds in the distance, flapping their black long wings toward their general direction.
Although the birds were still hundreds of meters away from them, the familiar deep feeling of danger and horror within his soul reminded him of the particular hateful bird from the past.
"Soul Eating Crow!"
"Soul Eating Crow..."
Leo and Roland unisonly said with grave and serious expression. Exchanging with a deep look, Roland quickly turned around before commanding his group.
"Quickly hide toward the building!"
"Choose the high building and quickly hide within!"
Scrambling around, Leo closely followed the rushing group toward the 7th-story tall building in the short distance. Quickly entering inside, the group instantly shut the door and window up, blanketing the surroundings in weak darkness (Only enough for them to see in a short distance).
Caw!
Caw...
Screech!
As the second passed by, as they held their breath in anxiousness, the sound of the cries of the bird magnified by amount, causing the expression of the group to contort in pain...
Ding!
-0.1 health.
"Don't make noise, just bear with the pain."
"Sooner or later, after they didn't find the target they will immediately go away..."
Roland said in a hushed tone as he stared at the concrete above him with a dark expression.
Damn Soul Eating Birds!
If not for their huge number, the ability to fly, and could attack from a long distance Roland would probably fight them off.
Not only that, the thing that they hate the most about this "Soul Eating Crow" is their ability to directly attack the soul of the target! Causing his shield and defense to become useless!
In addition, their soul damage can also increase and stack if they release it unisonly toward the target!
Caw!!!
Screech!
Flying high above the ground, the dozens of "Soul Eating Crows" while flapping their dark wings that expanse at least 3-4 meters wide, gaze toward the buildings in the ground in confusion...
Caw?
CAW! Caw!
Screech... Caw!
Not seeing their initial target, the Soul Eating Crow's unison cried as they unisonly opened their sharp beak widely... Blanketing the surroundings in silence.
...
Leo and the group who was hiding in one of the buildings suddenly felt/heard the silence above them as the feeling of great danger instantly gripped their heart.
In particular, Leo's dark brown eyes instantly constricted as a terrifying guess appeared on his head. Due to his having a "Soul Screeching" skill, Leo was extremely familiar with how it works...
"COVER your ears, QUICKLY!" Leo almost shouted as he hurriedly said to the group before covering his ears with two hands and bending to his knees... Increasing the distance toward the sky.
Surprised at Leo's outburst, the group didn't ask him for the reason as they quickly followed Leo's action, directly slumping to the ground while covering their ears...
As soon as they all covered their ears... Above the sky, the dozens of dark crows in unison, let out an extremely loud screeching sound to the point that it was almost inaudible...
CAWWW!
CAWWW!!
Augh!
Thud...
The group let out an inaudible cry of pain as they slumped to the ground, squirming to the extreme. Their orifices, especially their mouth, ears, and eyes began to bleed, slightly dyeing the floor with thick crimson-red blood... The feeling of their brain and soul being squished by the sound hit them so hard!
After squirming for a while, one of the people from the group lay unconscious on the ground, not able to handle the stabbing pain in his soul. Although the group saw the pathetic figure of their groupmate, they couldn't do anything due to the immense pain...
They are also fighting not to fall unconscious!
After tens of seconds of indescribable cry from above, the Soul Eating Crow suddenly paused as they scanned the ground for any sign of living beings...
Augh... Did it finally end?
Leo opened his eyes in pain as he scanned the contorting expression of the group, due to the blood, Leo's eyes could only see 2-3 meters away from him...
Sighing deeply, feeling that the calamity finally passed by, Leo was about to stand up when suddenly the hair in his body suddenly stood up...
Followed by the deep chills settling on his soul.
CAAAAWWWWW!!!
CAWWW!
Thud... Thud!
Caught off guard by the second loud screech of the crows in the sky. Leo and the group immediately fell toward the ground and began to squirm in pain.
Like a thousand of thin needles stabbing deep within their bodies... The pores in their body began to excrete blood. Further dyeing the ground with blood.
Augh!!
Roy, the child, not able to bear the pain of the second screech of the crow, directly fell unconscious... Followed by Kristine and another one...
Soon, In a short span of ten seconds. 7 out of 10 people directly lay unconscious on the cold ground as their bodies sometimes spasm...
"Damn Black Bird! Sooner or later I would exterminate your race!" Leo after mumbling those words weakly, finally succumbed to pain before directly falling unconscious to the cold floor.
...
Meow?
The white cat, seemingly unaffected by anything, approaches the unconscious child, licking its face in concern.
Meow?
Seeing that the child didn't respond, the gray irises of the cat revealed a cold glint as it looked at the concrete above, as if its eyes could see what was happening outside.
