They now had exchanged blows . He threw his punch while the bats all of a sudden made a rectangular formation and did a scratching scream. Which in normalcy the scream could have pulverized an ordinary person's eardrums and still would have killed in a mere instant. Well of course this guy wasn't an ordinary human to begin with. He instantly rendered the bats attack useless and so was his.
" These little mammals are strong once they start fighting you in numbers , and their battle IQ is insane. I just adapted to their old formation and in an instant they made me look like a kid just now" . Even so the impact that they had made was devastating , the sound of the clash made the trees away erratically for some moments . The sound could be easily heard a mile away.
Some of the magical beasts instinctively ran in the opposite direction when they felt this uneasy feeling, they knew that this wasn't the right place to be because in an instant it could change and become a battle field. Some were drawn to this immense pressure they felt , emanating from the edge of the forest . The only enigma was that the pressure coming from this specific area was that there were tiny little molecules of mana being displaced,showed something to the beasts that no humans could see.
And what message they felt was that "if you disrupt my hunting then you are next on the menu." These little monsters were never that big to begin with they were smaller than their cousins the venom bats and just like the family they belong to they were perfectly attuned to maneuver the forest of this density their estimated size ranged from one to two feet long they had slightly larger ears than the venom bats and could easily move during day or night time and that was the main difference between them. The bats had slightly longer talons than venom bats.
Yet that wasn't the most terrifying thing about them . " Clock bats now I remember you perfectly "John monologues himself. They were terrifying because of their intelligence. They were smarter than most secondary beasts. Even though nobody new how they could be so smart. The bats mostly traced their prey by quality. They would never eat beasts or humans who were of lower quality than them . They would go for only equal or higher quality than them. They were prideful by nature. And when one would go into their territory there were only two ways to survive the encounter .
Silence now emmanated from the battle field , both John and the clock bats alpha checked each other out. " It seems that the alpha is the one keeping them together." In a dire situation like this there needed no hesitation just to strike while the irons hot.
The exchange of throws continued in a flurry of attacks in which both parties did not relent and continued blocking dodging and returning back the attacks. All of a sudden a projectile energy hit John, he could barely sense the attack since he was concerned about blink and concentrated almost all his efforts on evading the sonic sound bursts which were coming his way. Which is why in this case he did not expect to see an attack like this coming or to be more precise he had long forgotten about about this kind of hit from the bats. " I didn't even see that one coming,how clumsy of me." " I should get my shi together," he said this while he grunted from the pain and rolled a couple of times on the ground and just as fast he stood up and continued running but this time he was bleeding from his back . He now instinctively used the trees as cover and continued dodging another after another. He dodged " ahhh," he said to himself now visibly panting " I'm now getting tired of this " he was panting for breathe because he had been dodging for a while. He was waiting, the a chance to strike back came and that was what he wanted. " I see the patterns clearly now so that's it, cleaver but not enough to outwit me, he added."
It seems that the bats were hiding something that for most fighters it would have been nearly impossible to disearn the situation they're in and more importantly they would have been food for the bats, but not this man."Dinner is served, you little shits" he said this as he remembered a bit about the distant past. " Well we would have died back then if it hadn't been for Janet's intincts , well at least I'm starting to remember this little guys." "The bats are strong in numbers but they had a few weakness to be exploited. They were not invincible just overwhelming to most.
In the next instant they did a sonic sound attack, but this time the bats did not entirely miss, John had stumbled a bit but it was just what each of the needed an opportunity. " Shit I'm cooked,"he said it as he was hit by the sonic voice. The sound was so intensifying that it made him loose focus, he became disoriented his eyes rolled back and he nearly lost consciousness and down he went as he passed out , he all but lost. The ringing couldn't stop his brain and eyes were foggy. Blood was perfusing from his ears and nose, his eyes were redder than an over ripened tomato.
" If I drop down now I'm dead " that was the only thing that was hitting in his mind. " I can't stop now,no, not now " and just as he was about to drop down his body moved on his own and because his body was now weakend his natural restraint was gone .
The bats which were now attacking for the killing and thought that they had won seems to have felt the incoming danger but it was a bit too late. " I've become far too complacent," he said this as he took in a deep breath.
In the next moment all hell broke loose for the bats it seemed . A loud thud had hit them. The bats had a system in which they maneuvered in four groups which made their attacks stronger and for their alpha was just as smart as a nine year old kid made all this possible by maintaining the order among the cauldron of bats.
The two beasts who were standing at the edges of the forest seemed like they were keenly following the battle between the two parties, in an instant the bear seemed to have radieted a negative energy's which showed displeasure and disappointment, his partner on the other hand was radiating the what he was, happiness, joy and excitement. Just then in an instant their expressions flipped to the opposite beasts.
John who seemed that he had most likely lost the fight and he would end up as dinner tonight. In the next moment his limiter had broken . He used his own technique which he named it antiflow, with this style he had just killed an entire squad of the bats.
But not all were dead, the sunset was now creeping in and night was just beginning.
