Spirit summons? I want to do it myself!

Tonight it is Huo Feng's turn to partner with Lei Qianjun to guard the first half of the night, while Yan Chaoyang and Jin Feng will guard the second half.

As expected, although it didn't rain tonight, the dew fell like a drizzle. If there was no shelter, the tent and the fire would definitely get wet.

Unfortunately, the shelter didn’t last long. After all, it was just made of stacked branches, and there were inevitably gaps between the branches and leaves. By the second half of the night, water had already started to drip.

Fortunately, everyone had the foresight to cover the tent with the waterproof cloth they brought. Although the tent itself is waterproof, it is just in case. The sound of water dripping on the tent cloth is a bit loud and can easily wake people up.

The people resting in the tents were not affected much, but the people keeping watch suffered a bit. Not only was there water dripping from the shelter, but more of it was the dew that was falling diagonally that was pouring down on them. This was easy to understand. With such a strong wind in the valley, how could the dew fall straight down? !

Also under the influence of dew, tonight's bonfire is destined not to be as strong as last night's, but the fire is big enough so that it will not be extinguished by the rain.

So tonight, whether it was people resting in the tent or those on night watch, they all clearly felt that it was not as warm as last night. Especially those on night watch, they all moved to the center and closer to the fire so that the temperature of the flames could dry out the moisture on their bodies to prevent them from catching a cold.

While camping by the river, the night watchers saw from afar many animals coming down in groups from a slightly gentler slope and coming to the river to drink water.

The distance was too far to see clearly, but I guessed there were gazelles, sika deer, muntjacs, roe deer, elk, etc. I also saw carnivores following them hunting.

Neither Huo Feng nor Yan Chaoyang paid any attention to these animals. As long as they didn't approach the camp, it would be best if they lived in peace with each other.

But tonight, in addition to these ordinary animals that came to drink water and hunt, a group of more than a dozen devil bats flew over the camp.

There is no devil bat leader among these devil bats, and the direction they are flying in is not the direction pointed by the monster passage. It seems that they are flying from somewhere else.

I don’t know if it just happened to be heading towards the camp, or if it sensed the spirit’s presence halfway and flew over here.

Yan Chaoyang and Jin Feng were on night watch at that time. Among the two, only Yan Chaoyang had a Wendy elf that could be used for long-range attacks, while Jin Feng simply had three Rock elves. They seemed a little helpless facing a dozen devil bats.

There was no choice, the two had to wake everyone up, and then the situation was reversed, everyone and the elves attacked together, and in one round all the devil bats were sent to the underworld.

Everyone quickly collected the corpses of the devil bats that fell within the visible range, and those that fell in the mountains and forests or floated downstream in the river were left alone.

After opening a small psychic stone, everyone piled up the corpses at a distance from the camp. Huofeng summoned his red lotus elves, and with a burst of flames, the corpses began to burn.

Huo Feng was woken up not long after he fell asleep. He was in a bad mood and was venting his anger on the corpse of the devil bat.

They had originally planned to burn the bodies after daybreak, but now, after Huo Feng had finished his fire, he and the others went back to the tent to sleep. Yan Chaoyang and Jin Feng, who were on guard, had to pay attention to the movements around them and watch to see if the magic flame of the Red Lotus Elf would run out of energy and go out on its own after burning the bodies of the devil bats.

If the flames are not extinguished, they have to find a way to put them out, otherwise it will easily cause a wildfire.

Neither of them had a Nymph, so it was a bit difficult to extinguish the Red Lotus Elf's magical flame.

However, Lido doesn't plan to continue sleeping. If the situation requires, she will ask Fumei to come out and help.

Perhaps the scent of the monster has dissipated, and no more animals came down to the river to drink water. It seems that no animals will come here to drink water for a long time.

Then until dawn, no more monsters came and the night passed peacefully.

Although Lido felt that there were areas that needed improvement during the two nights of vigil, she did not say anything. Some experiences can only be understood by experiencing them yourself. So far the results have been good, so there is no need to be overly critical.

It's already the third day. It would be best if we could find the monster's lair today. We have to start our return journey by tomorrow afternoon at the latest.

So after breakfast, they checked the place where the bodies were burned last night. After making sure that the bodies of the devil bats had been completely burned to ashes and had not burned to other places, everyone returned to the monster passage from the wooden bridge they had built last night.

Before everyone left, they dragged the wooden bridge back to the monster passage and left it there. Maybe it could be used again if they encountered it in the future. The most important thing was to prevent the monsters from using the wooden bridge to cross the river.

Since the monsters' route is blocked by this stream, it's better not to let them cause trouble on the other side.

Everyone continued on their journey. The further they went, the wider the monster passage became, and the more intense the dark magic elements became. The spoiled Yunxi couldn't hold on any longer, and after drinking a bottle of purification potion, she was finally able to keep up with everyone else.

This made Liduo determined that even if she had to suppress them in the future, she would gradually increase the resistance of these young masters to dark magic elements.

Throughout the whole day, due to the interference of dark magic elements, everyone's progress was much slower than yesterday, and they only walked a little over 30 kilometers in total. In fact, after several days of continuous travel, the physical strength of others was no longer as sufficient as it was at the beginning.

Speaking of which, the Monster Passage is probably the most decent road in the Hengduan Mountains. It was trampled out by waves of monsters over hundreds and thousands of years.

In other words, there are not many monsters on this route, and now it is a window period, otherwise Lido would not dare to lead everyone to walk on the monster passage in a high-profile manner.

If you change to a route where there are many monsters and they appear frequently, not only is the chance of facing monsters directly on the route extremely high, you will even have to face a steady stream of monsters coming from behind.

Lido didn't care, but the others were doomed to fail. Even Lido didn't have the confidence to deal with the monsters and escape with so many people at the same time.

When the sun set, although there was no sign of the monster's lair, everyone knew that it was definitely not far away!

Not only the elves could clearly sense the presence of the monsters, but everyone else also felt something. A faint sense of crisis lingered in everyone's hearts, making no one able to sleep.

As usual, we set up camp on the other side of the river, but since tonight would not be a peaceful night, we did not force ourselves to sleep. Instead, we sat by the campfire with our eyes closed, waiting for the coming storm.
