Mary tightly gripped the bow and arrow, her gaze as sharp as a knife, and in an instant, she made a decision. She abandoned the original plan of shooting the bow and arrow and chose a more direct approach. Using the bow as a melee weapon, she swung it with force and ferocity, intending to deliver a merciless blow to the monster. The wooden bow struck the unusually protruding back of the monster violently, producing a deafening impact.
The sound of the impact was like intense thunder, causing the ground to tremble slightly. The monster, taken aback by this unexpected and fierce blow, let out a heart-wrenching howl, a scream of agony that seemed capable of tearing through the night sky and resonating in people's hearts. Its body contorted intensely from the immense pain, resembling a bug being roasted by fire, and its limbs flailed about in disarray.
Kevin at this moment caught a glimmer of hope for survival. He exerted all his strength, rising to his feet and delivering a powerful kick to the monster's belly, which was covered in viscous fluid. The force of his kick sent the monster staggering backwards. The creature was overwhelmed by his strength, and its massive body, like a weightless boulder, crashed heavily into a distant rock wall, producing a seismic roar.
Kevin swiftly reached down and picked up the flashlight that had fallen during the struggle. He urgently flipped the switch, directing the intense beam of light toward the monster, which was swaying from the impact. In the cold, harsh light, the creature's form was terrifying, its skin appearing even more contorted and unstable in the glare, its eyes a mix of rage and fear. Kevin and Mary tightly gripped their weapons, every pore exuding intense tension.
Alan's hands moved quickly and skillfully on the complex circuit board as he worked hard to repair the damaged parts. However, his concentration was quickly interrupted by the chaotic sounds coming from behind. The sharp sound of arrows cutting through the air, the painful screams of monsters, and the intense battle cries of Kevin and Mary all filled his ears in an instant.
A cold sweat formed on his back, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are you all okay?"
"Right now, it's still manageable," Kevin responded with a slightly breathless tone while dodging the monster's attacks, "but if the power can be restored quickly, our situation will improve a lot!"
Mary, at this moment, had no words. She focused all her attention on shooting arrows at the monster. Each arrow carried all her anger and determination, but the monster's movements were just too fast. Even for an experienced archer like Mary, it was very difficult to hit it in an instant. Whenever the arrow was about to touch the monster's body, it always managed to cleverly dodge at the last moment, avoiding a fatal blow.
Mary's arrows may have been shot in wave after wave, but very few of them actually hit the monster. She saw that despite the numerous wounds on the monster's body, it could still move swiftly on the battlefield like the wind, which made her feel deeply frustrated and powerless. However, she had no intention of giving up, as long as the power could be restored, they still had a chance of winning.
The monster's fury burned fiercely in its bright red eyes, and the feeling of being provoked by the weak filled its heart with anger. Watching Mary's arrows flying one after another, the monster no longer chose to confront head-on, but completely concealed its figure in the darkness of the environment, as if blending into the darkness.
The feeling of oppression in the air became noticeably stronger, heavy and icy. Kevin gripped the axe, the beam of his flashlight moving unsteadily and quickly across the ground, like a solitary light sword exploring the darkness. Behind him was Mary, nervously pulling the bowstring, ready to counter the impending monsters.
The air seemed to be filled with suffocating silence, only the faint hum of the power system and the short, rapid breaths of Kevin and Mary. Mary could feel cold sweat trickling down her back, her heartbeat echoing in her ears like ancient drumbeats.
Suddenly, a cold wind with a strange aura swept through, as if ancient magic was being cast in the space. Within the wind, there was a faint whimper of an unknown creature, as if there were not only them and the monster in this space, but also other creatures lurking in the shadows. All these anomalies made one's nerves tense to the extreme.
As time passed, the rustling sound grew closer, echoing through the enclosed space like the sound of a wild beast running in the night, causing heart-pounding fear. Mary tried to calm her heartbeat and focused all her attention on finding the monster's location.
Suddenly, a tall dark figure swiftly flew past them from the side. The speed was so fast that it completely exceeded their expectations. In that brief moment, Mary only managed to make a small evasive movement, but the monster's force still struck her side, causing a strong sense of pain that almost made her lose consciousness. Her whole body was sent flying several meters and crashed heavily to the ground.
In the instant that the monster dodged Kevin's axe, Kevin only struck the air, but he did not stop. Seeing the monster pounce towards Mary, a huge surge of anger and determination welled up in his heart. In that life-and-death moment, Kevin completely disregarded his own safety and once again charged towards the terrifying monster with an unstoppable force.
Mary saw the sickle-shaped claws piercing her heart, feeling only despair. However, at that moment, a figure swiftly collided with the monster, successfully pushing it away from Mary. It was Kevin. He used all his strength, wielding his axe fiercely at the monster, once, twice... each strike focused on the monster's vital points.
The monster let out a piercing scream. Disrupted by Kevin's sudden attack, it temporarily lost its ability to counter. Kevin did not relax at all; he knew he had to drive the monster away, or Mary's life would be in great danger.
Mary looked at the scene of Kevin battling fiercely with the monster, feeling both worried and grateful. She tried to get up to support Kevin, but her body wouldn't obey, and every attempt caused her unbearable pain.
