Chapter 6 - Hunting in the dark

The stun baton emitted a "sizzling" blue light, and every time it was swung, an animal fell down with a mournful cry.

The air was filled with the smell of burnt fur and a thick smell of blood.

Daniel's brain was overloaded, and countless animal fears, anger, and desperate emotions flooded his consciousness like a tide, hitting his nerves. He saw the brave Doberman, who, after biting a hunter's leg, was hit from behind with an electric baton by another man, his body convulsing violently. He "heard" the despair of the white cat on the beam being dragged out of the air by the net after letting out its last scream.

No way!

If this continues, they will be wiped out!

These hunters are well-trained and well-equipped, and the animals are not afraid of death, and in the face of absolute technical suppression, they are just futile sacrifices.

His eyes were fixed on the huge rusty electric gate box in the corner of the factory.

That's the only chance to win!

"Black pupils!" Daniel roared with all his might in his mind, condensing his thoughts and the picture of the electric gate box into a clear idea and conveying it.

At almost the same time, the one-eyed orange cat "Black Pupil" in the center of the factory arched its back suddenly.

"All the birds! Attack their eyes! All beasts, break through to the left, at any cost! "

The old and majestic command resounded in the heart of every animal.

"Roar!"

"Hiss!"

The offensive of the animals changed suddenly. All the crows, sparrows, and even a few daring bats pounced on the hunters' faces like black arrows, like crazy.

The army of cats and dogs on the ground, like a tide of unified orders, suddenly turned to the left side of the factory and launched a suicide charge.

The hunters' formation was instantly disrupted. They waved their arms to drive away annoying birds while turning their guns to prevent the animals from breaking through from the left.

Scarface roared: "Steady! Don't mess around! Grab that white ... first."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw a black shadow rush out from the right edge of the battlefield like a cheetah taking advantage of this last-minute chaos.

It's Daniel!

"Stop him!" Scarface instantly understood Daniel's intentions and immediately turned the gun.

But it was too late.

Daniel's speed exploded to the extreme, and the wind howled in his ears. He could feel the nets from behind him grazing his shoulders, and he could smell the chemical smell of the anesthetic needle in the air.

Just when he was only a few meters away from the electric gate box, a hunter was already standing in front of him, with a hideous smile on his face, and the stun baton in his hand stabbed him in the heart!

The shadow of death instantly shrouded me!

"Be careful!"

Gina's anxious voice sounded in his head.

In the midst of this lightning and flint, a golden shadow rushed out from behind like lightning, not pounced on the hunter, but slammed into Daniel's waist.

The huge impact caused Daniel's whole body to fly out uncontrollably to the side, and he rolled to the ground in embarrassment, just in time to avoid the fatal blow.

It's Gina! She used her weak body to block this for him.

The hunter, on the other hand, was thrown to the ground by a group of red-eyed stray dogs that followed closely behind, and was instantly submerged.

Daniel didn't care about the pain, jumped up from the ground, and used all his strength to pounce on the huge electric brake lever.

The tie rod is full of rust and does not move.

"Give ... I... Move... Yes! "

Daniel's eyes were red, and the blue veins burst out, pressing the weight of his whole body up.

"Click-squeak-"

After a tooth-biting metal rubbing sound.

"Bang!"

The whole world instantly fell into boundless darkness and dead silence.

All the lights in the factory, the tactical spotlights on the hunters' helmets, were all extinguished at this moment.

The only light source was a few stun batons that were still "sizzling", drawing a strange blue light in the darkness, and then quickly dimming.

Reaching out and not seeing the five fingers.

After the dead silence that lasted less than a second, there was complete chaos.

"Turn on the lights! Backup power! "

"Ah! Something bites me! "

"Help! My eyes! "

The screams of humans replace the screams of animals.

In the dark, human vision is deprived, and animals, especially felines, their night vision and keen sense of hearing and smell make them the real masters of this darkness.

Although Daniel couldn't see it, the "battlefield map" in his mind became clearer than ever. He could "see" the location of each hunter, and the fear and panic emanating from them were like a lighthouse in the night. He can also "see" the location of each animal, the flames of vengeance burning in them and the hunting instinct.

"Meow..."

A soft cat meow, but with an unquestionable command.

It is a black pupil.

The hunt began.

Darkness has become a natural barrier for the animals, and they are no longer living targets, but silent assassins.

A cat quietly jumped on the back of a hunter, its claws accurately slashing across his neck.

Several rats came out of the ground and gnawed at the ankle of another hunter like crazy.

The members of the Hunter's Guild, who had just been invincible, had now become lambs to be slaughtered, wielding their weapons indiscriminately, but they could not even touch the shadow of the enemy, and could only let out a desperate wail in endless fear.

Scarface is the only one who still maintains his composure. He threw away the useless gun, pulled out a saber that glowed with cold light from his waist, and with his rich combat experience, he leaned against a pillar and was vigilant around.

"Come out! You damn bastard! He roared in a low voice, trying to provoke Gina.

His opportunity came.

In the chaos, Gina's breath was faint, but for a top hunter like him, it was still the most obvious target in the night.

He rushed forward, and the saber cut through the air, stabbing in the direction where Gina was!

However, just a second before the tip of his knife was about to touch the target, an indescribable coercion from the depths of his soul descended!

It was not a physical attack, nor a sound, but a fear that came from the deepest part of the bloodline. Like an ant, trying to challenge the dragon that crushes the heavens and the earth.

Scarface's movements froze instantly, his brain went blank, and only a pair of vertical pupils like molten gold were left in his eyes.

It was the gaze of the king.

"Poof."

Scarface's legs went weak, and he fell to his knees directly, and the saber in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.

"Let's go!"

Black Pupil's command sounded again.

Daniel immediately reacted, rushed to Gina's side, and picked her up.

"This way!"

Several huge mice quickly ran to the corner and used their teeth and claws to lift a heavy sewer manhole cover.

A damp and moldy smell came to my face.

Without the slightest hesitation, Daniel hugged Gina and jumped into the dark sewers.

Black pupils and several sturdy leader animals followed.

The moment they fell into the sewer, the manhole cover was recovered, completely isolating all the screams and chaos on the ground.

The world is finally quiet.

"Huh... ... "Daniel leaned against the slippery wall, gasping for breath, the joy of the rest of his life and the sharp pain all over his body made him almost collapse.

Gina moved in his arms and gently licked his chin, conveying a sense of comfort and gratitude.

"Boy."

The voice of the black pupil sounded in Daniel's mind, and it walked over with elegant cat steps, and the one-eyed eyes looked at Daniel in the dark, full of unprecedented solemnity.

"You are not an ordinary human. Your body is flowing with the blood of 'Words of Beasts', although it is very thin, but it is enough to make you our friend." "

The language of the beast?

Daniel was stunned, this was the second time he had heard the word.

"But," Black Pupil's tone sank, "Her Majesty's 'Source Core' was severely damaged in previous battles and is now very unstable. Hiding alone is not enough, the Hunter's Guild will never give up. "

The old orange cat raised its head, a hint of hope flashing in his one eye.

"You have to make her stronger. Only in this way can we have a chance to live. "
