Chapter 688: Of Course An Archer Can Engage In Close Combat

F*ck, there really is a f*cking lizardman!

Barton only had time to curse before he heard a sharp hiss in his ear.

His years of experience of walking on the edge of life and death made him subconsciously grab the branches tightly with his legs, and then made a gesture of fishing the moon in the sky. A ball of transparent slime almost instantly brushed past his face.

The ball of transparent slime fell on the trunk behind him, and almost instantly a large amount of sour and stinky white smoke rose.

At the place where the mucus fell from the tree trunk, a long gully had been corroded, and the depth was about half the size of a palm.

Seeing this scene, Barton felt a sense of lingering fear in his heart.

If his reaction had been a little slower just now and he had been hit directly by this slime, most of his head would have been corroded.

"Kill him!"

The white robed lizardman in the lead let out an angry scream.

The remaining nine lizardmen took off their white robes, revealing strange bodies that looked like lizards but also like humans. They then used their four limbs to crawl at an extremely fast speed, surrounding Barton along the trees around them.

"Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

These lizardmen were very cautious. They did not rashly approach Barton but first spat out transparent mucus.

Knowing how terrible the corrosive slime was, Barton did not intend to test the bullet-proof vest. He used his legs to swing his whole body again. Then he took the opportunity to pull out several arrows from the quiver on his back. Almost without aiming, he pulled the bow and shot them out.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.

Three arrows broke through the air at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye.

And because the environment was in the jungle, the sky was relatively dark and there was no moonlight, so the position of the arrows was even more difficult to see.

However, in this harsh environment, the lizardmen reacted extremely quickly. Their eyes seemed to be able to capture objects moving at high speed. They easily avoided all the arrows. One of them even bit off the alloy arrow shaft.

"F*ck, what kind of bite force is this?"

Barton saw this scene and was stunned.

That was an arrow shaft made of alloy. Although in order to take into account the range and accuracy, the hardness of the alloy was not particularly high, but it was still an alloy after all. It could actually bite through it. Could it be that these guys' teeth were harder than alloy?

Taking advantage of the moment when he was absent-minded,

A lizard man directly pounced over from the tree trunk.

Before he got close, a fishy smell filled his nose, mixed with some kind of corrosive gas, which made Barton wake up in an instant. His legs that had been hooked on the branch loosened, and he fell freely.

Kacha!

The lizard man waved his hand, and the thick trees that were surrounded by four people were directly scratched with several deep claw marks.

Barton, who was in the air, twisted his body and kicked the trunk. He landed on the ground and rolled out. After seeing the claw marks on the trunk, he finally understood why the two policemen had died so miserably.

Huhuhu-!

The remaining lizard men did not give him time to think, and rushed over from the surrounding trees.

Barton had to roll again to dodge the attack. He took the opportunity to take out a few more arrows. The moment he got up, he put them on the alloy bow. He aimed and pulled the bow. There was no pause or hesitation in the middle.

Huuummm ---

This time, the speed of the arrow was even faster than before.

Barton, who was hiding behind the thick tree, was lucky to avoid a large part of the damage from the lightning, but he was inevitably grazed by a few bullets, leaving a few deep wounds, and blood kept flowing out.

"Fortunately, I set some traps in advance when I came here, otherwise it would be really dangerous." Barton smiled bitterly.

"Very good, you did well, human."

At this time, the leader lizard man came over and said with a gloomy face, "I lost nine men. Let me think about how to kill you to quench the anger in my heart!"

Barton staggered to his feet, reached for the quiver behind him, and grabbed nothing.

It turned out that in the fierce battle just now, the arrows had been used up unknowingly, and there were no mines or weapons.

"Hmph, it seems that you have used up all your arrows."

The lizard man leader revealed a sinister smile, as if victory was in his grasp, and said, "I will tear off all your limbs and empty out your internal organs so that you can slowly die in pain!"

"Tsk. It's really troublesome."

Barton clicked his tongue and immediately put down his hand. He sighed, "I originally didn't intend to use it. I didn't expect to use it in the end."

The lizardman leader was stunned for a moment, and then his pupils suddenly enlarged.

Countless light blue substances floated up from the forest and began to gather in the direction of Barton. After fusing with those light blue substances, the deep wounds on his body suddenly healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In a few breaths, the wounds were completely healed.

"You... Who are you"

The lizardman leader had an ominous premonition and was horrified. "It is impossible for humans to have this kind of power. You are definitely not a human!"

"Almost... I am a soul hunter."

Barton clenched his fists hard, making a crackling sound. He said lightly, "It's easy to understand. Humans who hunt souls. If you are willing to be honest, I can consider making a move."

"Stop joking, human!"

The lizard leader was furious and roared at Barton, its sharp claws aimed at his face.

But the next second!

The lizardman leader's vision blurred, and his face was like a heavy cannon as a huge force pushed him flying.

After smashing a dozen trees along the way, half of the lizardman leader's skull collapsed. He lay on the ground on his last breath and looked at Barton in disbelief. "No.. Impossible. Since you are so powerful, why did you have to act weak just now?"

"Pretending to be weak? No, no, no, you misunderstood."

Barton shook his head and said lightly, "I just don't want to use this ability. After all, it comes from the human soul that I devoured. Every time I use it, I feel guilty. That's why I want to use normal methods to solve it."

The lizard leader widened his eyes and struggled to get up and escape.

But Barton directly stepped on its head, and the huge force forced half of its head into the ground.

"Now, it's the interrogation time."

"The question is, who are you? Why did you kidnap Dr. Eric ? What conspiracy are you planning?"

"I'll give you ten seconds. If you exceed this time, don't blame me for using inhumane methods."
