Infinite Survival: I Can Plunder Passive Skills
Chapter 50 - Shadow Monsters and Conjectures
Night gradually fell. The ponytail girl and the young man in military clothes were sleeping soundly.
Considering the danger of being sitting ducks to the shadow monsters, Zhou Chen got up and woke them up.
He first woke the young man in the military uniform. When he finally woke up, he quickly rubbed his head and said that he was a little dizzy and exhausted.
The ponytail girl was similar. After waking up, she said that her body was sore and her head felt heavy.
“Where is that naked man? Where did he go?”
The girl then realized that the underwear man was not near the fire, and asked Zhou Chen where he was.
“I’m not too sure. When I woke up, I realized that he was gone. I think that he might have gone to gather firewood or fruits.”
Zhou Chen blabbered nonsense without a change in expression.
“I feel that there’s a problem with his fruit. I only wanted to take a nap, but I didn’t expect to sleep so soundly. I’m also feeling uncomfortable.”
The man in the military uniform interrupted. He frowned, clearly in a bad mood.
“It’s almost completely dark. I think those shadow monsters are coming. Everyone, be prepared.”
Zhou Chen looked up and reminded.
“Oh no… In my current state, I might be beaten up by those shadows.”
The ponytail girl immediately became a little worried when she heard Zhou Chen’s words. She felt that her body was not in a good condition.
Zhou Chen could do nothing about it. He held the machete in one hand and the round shield in the other, and was already prepared to fight the shadow monsters.
Time gradually passed. The second night did not seem to be much different from the first. No monsters attacked them even after a long time. It was not until late at night that a few shadows with malice suddenly crawled out of the ground and attacked the three people who were huddled around the fire.
On the first night, only one shadow monster appeared to attack. On the second night, the shadow monsters attacked one person each.
Zhou Chen’s Spirit attribute was very high which resulted in a strong perception. On the first night, he had even dodged the shadow monster’s surprise attack. This time, he was prepared and would not be hit.
He raised his round shield, and the sound of claws scraping the wooden board came from the surface of the shield. Then, he swiped his machete across the front of the round shield and pierced through a very blurry cat-sized four-legged beast shadow that was extending its claws.
The sharp machete slashed across the shadow monster’s body, as if it had cut through air. The shadow monster did not seem to be injured at all. It fell and sank into the ground.
“This… really immune to physical attacks?”
Zhou Chen could not help but feel a headache when he saw this. This monster could be said to be his bane. No matter how strong he was, he could not injure a hair of this monster.
“That’s not right. If this monster is immune to physical attacks, how did it attack my round shield? Could it be that only a part of its body is immune?”
Zhou Chen was puzzled, but he could not figure it out.
“Forget it, I’ll try to use fire.”
He turned around and picked a thicker branch from the fire, planning to use it as a weapon to counterattack the shadow monster’s next attack.
“These damn little things! Why are they always grabbing my face? Are they jealous of my beauty?”
At this moment, the ponytail girl had also been attacked by the shadow monster. She had not completely dodged it when she was in a good condition on the first night. This time, her body was poisoned and she was being beaten one-sidedly. Three long scratches appeared on her face, making her feel very angry.
The young man in the military uniform appeared as stable as ever. He did not complain. He was attacked in the chest. There were three more cuts in his military uniform, and blood was seeping from inside.
The injuries they suffered were actually quite light, far from being serious. However, constantly being attacked one-sidedly by sneak attacks was making them feel quite stressed.
Zhou Chen ignored them and continued to focus on sensing his surroundings, preparing to use the round shield to defend at any moment and counterattack with the burning branch in his hand.
In less than a minute, he was attacked again by the cat-sized shadow monster.
The monster’s attack speed was still fast, and there was no obvious sign before it attacked. Just as Zhou Chen sensed an abnormal movement on his side, the monster’s claws arrived ten centimeters away from his face.
Zhou Chen quickly dodged to the side and used the round shield to protect his face to defend against its attack. At the same time, the burning branch in his hand pierced through its blurry figure.
The flames were burning inside the shadow monster’s body. The shadow monster still did not look like it had suffered any obvious damage, but Zhou Chen observed that after the monster was attacked by the flames, it immediately sank into the ground. Its reaction was faster than when it was attacked by the machete last time.
“It’s useless, but it’s not completely ineffective.”
Zhou Chen was speechless. He felt that the fire attack had failed but not completely.
After some thought, he shared this information with the other two.
“This shadow monster is a little afraid of fire. You can try using the burning wood to defend!”
The ponytail girl and the young man in the military uniform had yet to receive the second attack. They heard Zhou Chen’s words and looked at his unscathed appearance. They each took out a burning stick from the fire and continued to defend against the shadow monsters.
The night passed gradually. Unlike the first night, the shadow monsters did not stop attacking for a long time. The three of them were attacked by the shadow monsters every once in a while. They used the burning sticks to chase them away, and the wounds on their bodies gradually increased.
Even Zhou Chen was careless once, and the shadow monster left three scratches on his abdomen.
These three wounds were shallow. With Zhou Chen’s physique and his Life Recovery passive skill, they would be completely healed within a day.
However, Zhou Chen still felt very displeased. He was angry that he could only defend and take a one-sided beating.
“Is this thing f*cking impossible to fight?”
Zhou Chen felt that the setting of this monster was too disgusting. Although its attack was not high, it could make people feel despair. They could only be toyed with endlessly.
“Maybe I can try to counterattack the moment it attacks. Perhaps its body is corporeal when it attacks people.”
Zhou Chen had been tortured by this monster for most of the night, and he had some guesses about its ability. He felt that it might be an agile monster that could turn into phantom and not completely an illusionary body.
