"Eh?" Li Huailin paused for a moment. He did see a figure running past, but he didn't know why the person was hiding from him. Since there was only one person alive, Li Huailin immediately chased after the person. Sure enough, he saw a person running in front of him.
"Hey, wait a moment!" Li Huailin shouted as he chased after the person. However, it seemed to have an effect because the person ran even faster.
"Damn idiot, if you keep running, I'll open fire!" Li Huailin roared at the person in front of him. However, it was still useless. The person was still running.
Of course, Li Huailin couldn't open fire. With a wave of his hand, a golden light flashed, and Millet appeared in front of Li Huailin. Then, she flew forward. Millet's flying speed was much faster than the person's running speed. In an instant, she appeared in front of the person and landed on the ground with a "thud". The impact caused the surrounding houses to shake. Of course, the person was also sent sprawling on the ground by Millet.
Of course, Li Huailin didn't waste much effort. He took a few steps forward and caught up with the person who was running away. Looking at Li Huailin, he discovered that he was an NPC Demons called Kadilla. He looked to be around 15 or 16 years old. Of course, just by looking at his appearance, he knew that he was also frightened. He looked at Millet in front of him with a trembling face. It was obvious that he had never seen such a monster before.
"So why are you running?" Li Huailin pulled the young Demons up from the ground. "Are you a resident of this city?"
"No … I'm not," Kadilla was obviously frightened and immediately answered when he heard Li Huailin's question.
"No?" Li Huailin was slightly surprised. "Then who are you?"
"I … I …" Kadilo hesitated for a moment.
Li Huailin pointed at Millet and said, "Can you please explain it to me? You saw the dragon over there, right? I don't think you want to become its lunch, right?"
"Wuu …" Millet expressed her innocence. I don't eat people. Of course, Cadillo obviously did not understand what Millet was trying to say. He was already scared out of his wits, so how could he think so much? He hurriedly said, "I'll talk, I'll talk …"
"Yes, tell me quickly."
"I … I came here to steal something." Kadilo lowered his head as he spoke. It seemed like he wasn't a habitual thief and still had some sense of shame.
"Steal?" Li Huailin was stunned. He didn't expect that answer.
"Yes, I live in Klenwen Village, south of here. I … I really need money now, so I came here to take a look …" Kadilo said. "My … my sister is sick and needs treatment, but treatment requires money …"
System Notification: Cadillo has issued a D-rank quest: Treat Linlin. Do you accept?
"No." Li Huailin didn't even think about it and directly rejected it. What kind of damned quest was this? He didn't have time to do some D-rank quest, so he directly asked Cadillo, "You said you came here to steal something, right?"
"Yes, yes …" Cadillo hurriedly nodded. "Because I know that everyone in this city will leave at this time, so there shouldn't be anyone here. That's why I came here …"
"Huh?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. "You said that everyone in this city will leave at this time? Why?"
"Uh …" Cadillo was slightly stunned. Only now did he dare to look up at Li Huailin. Because he was so scared, he completely forgot to look at the person who caught him. But now that he looked at Li Huailin, he realized that the person who caught him was a human adventurer. It was fine if it was an adventurer, but why was it a human? Why would a human appear in the territory of the Demons, and here at that?
"Hey, I'm asking you!" Li Huailin shouted at the dazed Cadillo.
"Oh, I'll say it, I'll say it," Cadillo hurriedly said. Kadilo hurriedly said. Yes, he was scared again. According to his education since he was a child, humans were evil creatures. All humans were evil, despicable, and cruel. Of course, killing a demon child like him was something that could be done easily. Kadilo was obviously panicking. "Every day at this time, there will be monsters coming from the east to catch people and eat them. I heard that the central government can't do anything about it, so every time at this time, the people in the city will leave the city and escape to the forest in the north. Then, there will be no one here. Although I'm also very scared, for the sake of my sister's illness, I still want to take the risk to come and take a look … "
"Monsters?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. This was the third time he heard of this monster. "What kind of monster?"
"I … I've never seen it. I heard them say that it's a huge monster, black, and can fly …" Halfway through his sentence, Cadilla suddenly looked at the sky in horror, as if he had seen something terrifying.
Of course, Li Huailin also noticed his gaze. He turned his head and looked at the sky behind him. Narrowing his eyes slightly, Li Huailin really saw a few black dots on the edge of the sky in the east. Looking closely, they seemed to have two wings, and now they looked a bit like black birds.
"It's … it's them. Hide!" Cadillo said in horror.
"Oh, it's them, right?" Li Huailin nodded. Of course it was them, so he let go of Cadillo. "You can go first. Thank you for your cooperation. If you want to steal something, you can continue …"
"Ah …" Why would he steal anything now? Kadilo screamed as he rolled and crawled away. It seemed like he ran straight out of the city. On the other hand, Li Huailin put away Millet and then stood in the most obvious position in the middle of the square, waiting for the group of guys in the sky to fly over.
Sure enough, the things in the sky were coming over here. As they got closer, Li Huailin also saw what they were.
There were about ten 'monsters' flying over in the sky. Rather than saying they were monsters, they actually looked more like 'birdmen'. Yes, it really looked like a birdman. It looked like a humanoid with a pair of black crow wings on it. And just as Cadillo said, their bodies were much bigger than humans, about 1.5 times the size of a normal person. However, they did not look very big, but rather very thin. Their bodies were thin and long. Then, all of them were wrapped in various black and brown strips of cloth, almost like mummies. Only a pair of fierce-looking red eyes could be seen on the outside.
What was more curious was that they were actually holding weapons, not empty-handed. Each of them had a strange scythe in their hands, which showed the feeling of the Western Grim Reaper in reality. Indeed, this kind of ghastly appearance looked very ominous, as if it was really scary.
But what made Li Huailin a little strange was the opponent's combat power. Only a dozen of these things came, but they actually made the entire city run away. This was too exaggerated. Although this city was small, it still had a population of tens of thousands. They couldn't even deal with a dozen of them? Or was this thing's combat power very strong?
In any case, this should be what he was looking for. After all, this thing also came from the east, and the east should be Keshna Island. The information he heard here was similar to the information he received before. This should be the monster that ate humans.
While Li Huailin was observing the other party, the other party also seemed to have noticed Li Huailin on the ground. After all, the entire city was now empty, leaving only Li Huailin standing on the empty square. It was too obvious. Obviously, the other party also had their eyes on Li Huailin. After several Birdmen hovered in the air for a while, they all landed on Li Huailin's side.
Li Huailin stood in the same place without moving, but these Birdmen directly swooped down towards Li Huailin. Seeing that the other party was about to attack him, Li Huailin didn't dodge. He mainly wanted to test the other party's strength. Anyway, no matter how high their attack was, they shouldn't be able to kill him.
But a little unexpected was that when the other party approached Li Huailin, they didn't attack. Instead, two Birdmen directly grabbed Li Huailin's hands, and then Li Huailin felt that he was directly flying.
"Oh? Are you going to capture me? " Li Huailin was a little stunned, but he immediately understood the intention of these Birdmen. It seemed that they were going to directly capture him. After all, they said before that they were going to capture people here. Of course, if Li Huailin wanted to resist now, he could just leave directly. But after thinking about it, Li Huailin felt that it was better to let them capture him directly. Anyway, the place he was going to now was Keshna Island, and these people should also take him to Keshna Island. It was basically like hitching a ride, and it seemed that he could see the situation without alarming the enemy.
In this case, Li Huailin directly gave up resistance and let the other party grab him. The two Birdmen pulled Li Huailin and flew to the sky, then they stopped in the air for a while. Li Huailin looked at the other Birdmen wandering around the city, probably looking for people. But it was obvious that everyone had escaped, including Kadilo who was lucky enough to escape. Therefore, these Birdmen circled around the city and slightly destroyed some buildings, but they didn't catch anyone.
"Uh uh uh …" Suddenly, all the Birdmen began to cry out strangely. Their voices were really unpleasant to listen to. This was probably the cry of some sort of retreat. Soon, all the Birdmen gathered back. Then, they brought Li Huailin and flew towards the east.
