Jiang Chanji didn't dare to tell Mio the truth, so he ignored him and changed the subject.

If it were anyone else, his explanation would be full of doubts and unconvincing, but this is Senior Mio who is not very bright, and in this harsh environment of depressive and hypoxic conditions, he is surrounded by a large number of disgusting people.

Bats, people's judgment will be affected by nature, so Mio was confused when he heard it, and there was no doubt that he was there.

"That's right! Let's go out first. It's so scary here! It's like falling into a rat's nest!" Mio nodded, "By the way, where is the exit?"

The exit was behind them, but now that they had finally gotten in, they couldn't give up halfway, so Jiang Chanji pointed forward, "It might be in front, let's go to the front and have a look."

Mio covered his nose with his hand and followed Jiang Chanjiji quietly.

Jiang Chanji thought, there are tens of thousands of bats here, and he doesn’t know how many extraordinary bats there are among them. Counting the ones that fly out to look for food, there may be more than just a dozen. Then the success or failure of this mission is to get rid of all the extraordinary bats.

Kill or capture alive? This seems unlikely. Even if you use fire and smoke, there may not be only one entrance and exit here.

According to common sense, all animals that live in groups usually have a leader. A monkey group has a monkey king, and a wild goose array has a leader. People know very little about the social nature of bats, but it stands to reason that there should be a leader in a bat group.

The one who can control a group of extraordinary bats must be a more powerful extraordinary bat. As long as the head bat is found, the remaining extraordinary bats will become birds and beasts and disperse, right? At least they will no longer harm the poultry and livestock of this village.

Generally speaking, the leader would not leave the nest easily, and the daily foraging was carried out by his subordinates, so he estimated that the head bat was probably still deep inside the cave.

Sometimes the ceiling of the cave is high, sometimes low. When it is low, the bats hanging upside down on the ceiling almost brush the heads of Jiang Chanji and Mio, and their feces and urine even fall on them, but this is still a good thing.

Because bats' scent masks their own scent.

The sense of smell of ordinary bats is generally degraded, but vampire bats have a more sensitive sense of smell in order to smell the location of blood vessels through their skin.

Miao had a look of despair on his face, and he would hold his hand and shake it from time to time, asking him how far he had to go before he could get out.

Jiang Chanji didn't know that if he couldn't find the theoretically existing head bat at the bottom of the cave, he would have no choice but to go home.

He lowered the light of the flashlight and adjusted the brightness to the lowest level, and kept shining it on the ground.

No ordinary bats can be seen on the roof of the cave, and a stone chamber-like space appears in front of it.

As I was walking, I caught something with my flashlight.

It was a little lamb, lying on the ground, with blood on its back. Not only had it been sucked, but there seemed to be traces of being chewed.

If those vampire bats in the past just wanted to fill their own stomachs, there was no need to go to all the trouble to bring prey into the cave. They must have done this to feed something in the cave, maybe it was young bats, maybe

It could be a head bat, or it could be both.

Moving forward, the flashlight illuminated more carcasses of poultry and livestock, as well as the carcasses of dogs, as well as the carcasses of some ordinary small animals and large birds, many of which were state-protected animals that could make ordinary people sit in jail.

Mio's hand that held him was shaking uncontrollably, and his palms were all sweaty.

"Is the...exit really in front?" she asked in panic.

Jiang Chanji was also very nervous. It seemed that they were close to what they were looking for.

"Don't worry, Miao-senpai, even if there is any danger, as long as we stay calm, there will be nothing to fear," he comforted.

With Miao's strength, even if she just clears this cave, there won't be much problem, but she can't overcome the fear and nausea in her heart. This is normal. In this kind of environment, many people will be afraid and nervous, let alone just a young person.

girl.

After walking around a row of irregular stone pillars, the flashlight suddenly illuminated something again.

Jiang Chanji and Miao were startled at the same time, and it took them two or three seconds to confirm what they saw.

A human skeleton.

Judging from the size, it should be the bones of a child. Only the white bones are left. I don’t know how long ago he died here.

Jiang Chanji held his breath.

Someone died, which meant that the incident escalated, and those bats were no longer just extraordinary animals, but ferocious beasts.

"Ah! How terrible! How cruel!"

Mio couldn't bear it anymore and let out a scream.

At the same time, a series of commotions suddenly sounded from the dark cave ceiling.

Jiang Chanji didn't care about anything else and raised his flashlight to shine on the roof of the cave.

A row of huge vampire bats hung upside down from the ceiling of the cave. They were disturbed by the flashlight and Miao's screams. When they sensed an enemy invasion, they spread their wings and let out high-pitched and sharp whistles in unison, like countless steel needles.

Pierce the eardrum.

Jiang Chanji had been mentally prepared for a long time. He had to turn on the flashlight, so it was only a matter of time before the vampire bats discovered them. In fact, the ordinary bats also discovered them before, but they would not actively attack people, and these vampire bats...

"Stop screaming! Shut up!"

Mio covered his ears tightly and was so agitated by the screams of the bats that his hair stood up.

In the closed stone cave, the screams of the bats could not be diffused, and the screams of the bats stirred back and forth inside the cave, which was ten times more serious than in the open outdoors, especially for her who has sensitive hearing.

"Wait...wait! Sister Chanji, why are you taking off my clothes!" She suddenly noticed Jiang Chanji pulling on her clothes, and she couldn't help but become even more panicked.

"Nya-senpai! It's time to turn into a cat! Otherwise we will turn into bat guano!"

"I hate it! I told you to stop screaming!"

Mio was distracted by the screams. Fear, panic, anxiety and other emotions weighed heavily on her, and she was eventually swallowed up by anger.

Anger erupted from the bottom of her heart like a volcano that had been suppressed for a long time, and she was completely angered.

"Meow!"

A big cat wearing a red and black school uniform skirt appeared.

Jiang Chanji only had time to take off her school uniform top, otherwise it would affect her movements, but the skirt had no effect.

Normally, Mio already looks like a cat in terms of her demeanor and movements. Now that she even looks like a cat, her thoughts are further dominated by cat instincts.

Girls are afraid of bats, but cats are not afraid of bats. Bats are just cats’ playthings.

"Damn stinky bat! Let you scream!"

The angry Mio jumped up and rushed towards the vampire bats on the roof of the cave like a cloud.

Vampire bats detect the enemy's attack through echolocation, loosen their claws hooked on the rock, flap their wings while falling, and start flying, trying to avoid the enemy's attack.
