Chapter 64 Blue-skinned Frogmen
Chapter 64 Blue-skinned Frogmen
As soon as Chen Hao reached the top of the stairs, he saw many people rushing upstairs as if some monster was chasing them.
"Run! The monster is catching up!"
Someone shouted from below.
"Run! The monster is coming! I don't want to die!"
"Ah!" A short, sharp scream rang out.
Upon hearing the scream, the crowded people on the stairs shuddered and pushed forward even more desperately.
"Get out of my way! If you delay my escape, we'll all die together."
A man wielding a long knife roared madly.
However, due to the congested crowd, no matter how frantically he moved, he could only advance slowly.
He wanted to raise his knife to strike the person in front of him, but he found that he couldn't bring the knife down.
It's too crowded.
At this moment, Chen Hao, holding a torch, came out and was immediately blocked at the door.
The raised knife gleamed in the firelight.
Those around, struck by the reflection, felt a chill and quickly reached out to snatch the knife.
Some people even saw the brightly lit fifth floor behind Chen Hao and wanted to rush in all at once.
However, Chen Hao stood like a stone wall, firmly blocking the entrance, and no matter how much they pushed and shoved, they could not budge him an inch.
"close the door."
Chen Hao said.
"Close the door quickly!" Ren Xue shouted upon hearing this.
So the door was quickly and tightly closed.
"Are you trying to kill us? Quickly tell the people inside to open the door and let us in to hide."
"Yeah, open the door quickly."
The people around Chen Hao became anxious when they saw the door on the fifth floor was closed, and they questioned Chen Hao.
Chen Hao ignored them. Holding a torch, he looked at the crowd thronging the stairs. If he wanted, he could still push through the crowd and go against the flow if he wanted to.
But that would be too slow.
He pushed aside the people blocking his way, and amidst a chorus of curses, he flipped over the handrail and jumped down.
"Hiss, what is he doing? Is he looking for death?"
Because Chen Hao was holding a torch, many people saw his actions clearly and couldn't help but gasp.
"It's Chen Hao. I know him. He's Chen Hao. He must have gone to deal with those monsters."
"Chen Hao, so it's him. But is he really that good? I only remember him being good at killing people."
"Yeah, Chen Hao is only good at showing off in front of his own kind. If he really encountered a monster like that, he'd probably be killed."
Most people were not optimistic about Chen Hao, and some even made sarcastic remarks.
Chen Hao had no time to pay attention to these people. He flipped over the handrail and, pulled by gravity, quickly plummeted downwards.
Just as he was about to touch the water, he hooked his right hand and firmly grasped a section of the handrail.
The steel handrails creaked.
The handrail was deformed by Chen Hao's immense force.
Fortunately, Chen Hao's downward momentum was stopped, and at this moment, Chen Hao's toes were almost touching the water surface.
Then, Chen Hao rolled over and went back up the stairs.
On the steps, a water snake was stepped on by him. It quickly opened its mouth, trying to bite Chen Hao's calf.
It missed.
Chen Hao pulled his leg out and kicked.
The water snake's head was kicked off by Chen Hao, and its body flew into the water.
Then, Chen Hao climbed several steps and arrived at the third-floor platform.
Looking up, there were crowds of people; looking down, there was floodwater that had already submerged the second floor.
Looking ahead, there was the third floor, filled with screams and roars.
Among these voices, some were familiar.
Chen Hao's expression was cold and stern as he rushed into the third floor.
The third-floor corridor was littered with corpses—human, snake, and lizard creatures.
There is also a blue-skinned monster.
This monster was humanoid, but its hands and feet had webbed feet like a frog's, five fingers, and its toes were connected by a layer of translucent skin.
The monster had a large belly, large and bulging eyes, a split mouth with sharp, serrated teeth inside, a black and thin tongue, and a smooth body covered with irregularly distributed black spots.
Overall, it looks like a large blue frog.
"Is this the monster they were talking about?"
Chen Hao thought to himself.
As Chen Hao rushed in, the people fighting in the corridor and the blue frog monster simultaneously spotted him.
"Mr. Chen, help!"
The one who shouted was Jiang Meiya, who was facing an attack from five blue frog monsters with a group of people.
The moment she saw Chen Hao, she felt like she had seen a savior, and she almost burst into tears.
The monsters that attacked them were very strong, but their weapons were very simple, just some moss-covered wooden sticks.
Even so, they still had a crushing advantage over more than a dozen people.
Those people, after being hit by these monsters, kept retreating, and some were even beaten until they vomited blood.
Seeing this, Chen Hao remained silent and quickly took down the longbow from his hand.
Draw the bow, nock the arrow, and shoot.
As if he had practiced tens of thousands of times, Chen Hao's arrow accurately struck the head of a monster.
The arrow pierced straight through the frog's head.
[Congratulations! You have successfully killed an elite creature—the Blue-skinned Frogman—and obtained two one-star cards.]
This is just the beginning.
Within three seconds, Chen Hao fired five arrows in succession.
Three arrows hit the head of the "Blue-skinned Frogman," and two arrows hit his body.
The blue-skinned frogmen that were hit in the body let out a loud "ribbit" sound, which was their scream of pain.
Immediately afterwards, two more arrows struck, and the two blue-skinned frogmen died without even being able to scream, their heads pierced by arrows.
Five [Blue-skinned Frogmen], three of which dropped cards.
"Where are Chen Zhong and the others?"
After dealing with the five [Blue-skinned Frogmen], Chen Hao quickly asked.
"Where?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Meiya recovered from her shock and quickly pointed to a room.
Roars could be heard continuously coming from that room.
Chen Hao rushed inside immediately.
"President Jiang, this President Chen is too exaggerated. He was suppressing the monster we were fighting, but he killed it with just a few arrows."
Jiang Meiya's men stared in disbelief at the corpse of the Blue-skinned Frogman lying on the ground.
Jiang Meiya herself was also shocked.
But in front of her subordinates, she remained calm and said, "Of course, with President Chen here, these monsters are nothing to worry about."
"That's great."
The crowd cheered.
Some of these people were not under Jiang Meiya's command; they were forced by the monsters to fight alongside Jiang Meiya.
Looking at Chen Hao again, the first thing he saw after rushing into the room was Chen Zhong, who was holding a long sword and wearing iron armor, fighting against a blue-skinned frogman who was a head taller than the others of his kind.
As you can see, this larger "blue-skinned frogman" not only has a more sophisticated weapon in his hand, but also a simple, rusty iron fork.
The iron fork clashed with the long knife, constantly sparking.
Despite having used two purple enhancement cards, Chen Zhong was still at a disadvantage in terms of power.
They were being overwhelmed by the [Big Blue Frogman].
But Chen Zhong was not discouraged. He roared and swung his sword even harder at the [Big Blue Frogman].
Besides Chen Zhong, the others were also fighting.
They were being attacked by more than a dozen "blue-skinned frogmen".
Leading the way were Li Laoshi, Kong Hao, Li Zhan, Liu Wei, Fang Zheng, and others.
These five individuals either used enhancement cards or learned a skill, and all possessed considerable combat capabilities.
Several corpses of the Blue-skinned Frogmen lay dead beside them, clearly killed by them.
Chen Hao quickly surveyed the battlefield on both sides.
Then take swift action.
He immediately activated the armor-piercing effect of the Purple Tiger Bow, and a purple aura instantly wrapped around the arrow.
Chen Hao instantly drew the Purple Tiger Bow to its full draw, aimed at the large blue-skinned frogman, and fired an arrow fiercely.
The "Big Blue Frogman" was fighting Chen Zhong when he was attacked from behind and was hit in the head by an arrow.
The frog-like head exploded, large amounts of blue blood mixed with bone, and brain matter scattered everywhere.
After the arrow blew open the head of the "Big Blue Frogman," it pierced through the tempered glass and fell into the forest outside.
This shows just how terrifying that arrow was.
[Congratulations! You have successfully killed a one-star elite creature—the Big Blue Frogman—and obtained six one-star cards.]
"Are they still elite beings?"
A hint of disappointment flashed in Chen Hao's eyes.
With no opponent now, Chen Zhong felt much less pressure and was finally able to catch his breath. He also finally noticed Chen Hao who had arrived.
His face immediately lit up with joy: "Yes, my lord."
"Do you still have the strength?"
Chen Hao looked at him and asked quickly.
"Yes, of course."
"Okay, then let's clean up these blue-skinned frogmen together."
"Yes, my lord."
Chen Zhong shouted.
