Nero, The Legendary Hunter

Chapter 128 - 127: Giant Flying Fox?



A few hours later, Choko and the rest had finished meditating. Their power didn't level up, but at least they had improved their foundations. As such, their fighting power was superior to their level.

At that time, they were confident of fighting those who were 2 to 4 levels above their own. Of course, that was individually. If they coordinated, it was even possible for them to fight those who were 5 levels higher.

"Ahhh, almost leveled up~" Honda got up off the floor and sighed as she stretched. Her muscles were a little tense from spending a few hours meditating.

"Yui has leveled up~" Yui's cool, yet soft, voice sounded like a summer breeze. While warm, it caused shivers in those who weren't used to hearing it.

Choko got up.. She looked at Yui, then looked at Nero. "I've reached level 23."

She was happy with the fast forward. Although a little unhappy with Yui being the same level as her, it wasn't so much. Currently she didn't feel so uncomfortable with Yui, however, she still wanted to be stronger than the rest of the group. Well, she knew it was practically impossible to overtake Nero, but at least she wanted to try. If she was stronger, she could help her even more...

"Congratulations, you two." Nero smiled at the two girls softly. The rest of the group also congratulated them and couldn't wait to level up.

The next floor was going to be more difficult. These were bat monsters from level 25 to 28. Although their party was stronger than those of the same level, monsters that could fly were more difficult to kill, especially if they were higher level than one's own.

"We'll have to depend a lot on Nero again, degozaru." Jingu sighed, a little disappointed.

"If you're really feeling unfulfilled, push yourself and you can take the weight off my shoulders next time. In the meantime, it's up to me. We're a group after all." Nero smiled.

"Yes, degozaru." Just like that, Jingu smiled a little.

It was true, rather than lamenting not being strong enough, they should try harder and not be a burden to Nero. Thus, the group was motivated to get stronger, at least before going up to the floor.

They formed teams of two to kill the monsters. If they coordinated together, the monsters would be easier for them to kill. From there, the group packed their belongings and moved on to the next floor.

When they reached the next floor, Nero narrowed her eyes.

"Giant flying foxes?"

Obviously, they weren't foxes, but that was what they resembled were known by on earth. Nero was quite surprised to see these bats. In addition to this resemblance, another thing was the gigantic size. They were even bigger than the giant flying foxes that were on earth, some even reaching 500 cm in wingspan. The open wings were almost 3 times larger. They were monstrous, even scarier than Nero's two dragons.

"Scary." Jair took a step back at the sight of these bats.

Not only were they frightening, but they were also too many.

"This is going to be difficult," Jingu said in a slightly shaky voice, "These bats are scarier than I thought they were, degozaru."

Nero, though surprised by the bats' appearance and size, was not intimidated. "If we take too long to prepare, they might notice and attack us. We should act first."

Nero's voice was neither loud nor quiet; it was loud enough for Choko and the rest to hear. Hearing this, the party looked at each other and nodded. It wasn't the right time for them to be stunned by bats.

Nero's summoning monsters were already prepared. The little skeleton was particularly attractive. Nero hadn't tested it in a fight yet, so she was curious to know how it would evolve.

Roaring, the two dragons went out in a pair. Nero's instructions were to ground the bats and let the rest of the monsters kill them. Meanwhile, Jana and Honda were already preparing to attack from a long distance, aiming for the wings to knock the bats out of the air.

Nero was the most effective. The moment she held the bow and drew arrows darkly, a shower of perfectly calculated arrows fell on the bats' wings, ripping and making them fall like kites that had lost their tails.

"Let's go!" The first to act was Choko. She was fast. Each step Choko took covered 10 meters. She only lost in a matter of speed to Nero and Yui.

When she got in front of a bat that fell, Choko punched the bat fox in the head.

*Bang!*

Though she couldn't crush the bat's head, she did make the head spin erratically, hitting her forearm.

"Hard head…" she muttered.

Yui, instead of punching, gave a vertical kick. Something similar happened, only that the head hit her chest, breaking the bat's neck, but the skull was still intact.

Breno who pierced his bat's head, but was unsuccessful in killing it, as something hard prevented him from fully piercing the head. He was only able to tear the skin a little, and said. "Don't attack the head! Try to attack the neck or body there."

He said this mostly because Jair, who was beside him, cut off the head of a bat with his sword. Jana and Honda also listened. Now the two girls attacked.

"Oh?" Nero smiled. The little skeleton surprised her greatly now. Without needing the bats to fall to the ground, the little skeleton was jumping quickly and agilely, each leap slashing at least one bat's neck after he had removed the backbone of a bat and made it a weapon.

This was not something Nero had ordered. The little skeleton was smart enough to do this on its own. From the beginning, Nero didn't try to control the little skeleton; she just asked it to kill the bats, while paying extra attention in case he got in danger, but it seems that her concern was invalid.

Incidentally, the skeleton could also make the bats stop moving, and because of that, fall to the ground and be killed by the other monsters summoned by Nero.
