is coming.

A foul, fishy smell wafted into Heishan Village.

As screams began to spread throughout the southern part of the village, it was clear that many people had been attacked and killed.

Without any hesitation.

Shen Yi and his three companions climbed up the Yinmu Arrow Tower with perfect coordination.

Shen Yuan followed closely behind her elder brother. When the two reached the top of the arrow tower, they looked towards the south of the village.

in the dark.

Flames soared into the sky from the campsite south of the village.

"Someone burned the house down?" Shen Yuan asked in astonishment.

"It's not human, it's a kind of spirit!"

Shen Yi's eyes were sharp, and he could barely make out what was happening at the camp south of the village.

Clumps of blood-red flames, each the size of a human head, surged toward the camp south of the village. The firelight was not bright, but extremely dim, illuminating a small area in a ghastly red.

Wherever it passes, the crimson flames immediately ignite upon contact.

Shen Yuan's eyes widened. "What kind of monster is this? I've never seen anything like it before!"

"This isn't a spirit that lives near our Black Mountain Village; it's from elsewhere!"

Shen Yi frowned.

He discovered that not only these fiery red spirits, but also mud monsters, mist shadow monsters, and many other spirits had flooded into Black Mountain Village at this time!

It's as if they were deliberately driven here by some kind of being!

He quickly looked around his house and saw that many spirits were not following the original route, but were unintentionally approaching their manor!

The twenty wooden puppet soldiers placed on the outer wall sensed the monster entering their area, and a burst of dark light swept across their bodies as they slowly rose from the ground.

He drew his knife and plunged it fiercely into the body of the approaching lantern ghost, shattering its soul fire!

However, the lantern demons were mixed with many swamp monsters, which wriggled forward and attacked the wooden golem soldiers.

The filthy yellow mud instantly formed a muddy hand, which stretched three meters and landed on the wooden puppet soldier.

The wooden puppet soldier possessed immense strength. Ignoring all else, he took a sudden step forward, his wooden sword slashing down like a heavy axe, splitting a swamp monster in two.

pat-

The swamp monster died instantly from this blow.

However, the mud that gets on the wooden golems also affects their joint movement, hindering their actions.

The efficiency of wooden golems in killing monsters is thus greatly reduced.

But it's alright, since they're all low-level monsters and not difficult to deal with.

However, as the Shadow Monster engaged in battle with the Wooden Golems, the Wooden Golems found it difficult to withstand the Shadow Monsters' offensive and began to falter.

The wooden golem's durability keeps decreasing!

"Dry!"

call out--

Shen Yi raised his longbow and shot an arrow that struck the Shadow Fog Monster in a vital spot!

He shouted in a deep voice, "Don't let the Shadow Monsters get close to the Wooden Golems! Everyone move and lighten the load for the Wooden Golems!"

"receive!"

The Yinmu Arrow Tower where Shen Kun and his group were located immediately responded.

Shen Kun licked his dry lips, a hint of fanaticism appearing in his eyes.

He hasn't hunted any monsters for quite some time.

My hands are itching to get started right now.

The four men gripped the Yin Wood Longbow, constantly drawing and pulling the bowstrings, aiming at the monsters above the arrow tower, and the arrows fell like raindrops!

'Vision' + 'Aiming' + 'Rate of Fire'!

The characteristics of the Yin Wood Arrow Tower and the Yin Wood Longbow complement each other, allowing the longbows in their hands to unleash extremely terrifying power.

Every swamp monster and mist shadow monster that entered the 300-meter range was annihilated!

As for the lantern ghosts, the wooden puppet soldiers can handle them perfectly well, so there's no need for them to waste their energy on them.

at the same time.

They noticed that the camp south of the village seemed to be in chaos.

Many people rushed out of their houses.

They were immediately overwhelmed by the spirits roaming the village.

Before it could even scream, its flesh and blood and essence were completely devoured by the monster, leaving only a withered shell.

"How could this be? How could it be so terrifying!"

Liao Ning and the others gathered together, desperately resisting the monsters that were attacking them, their faces pale with horror.

Tang Jing, Liu Dachuan, and several other people from Yanling Village had faces as black as the bottom of a pot.

They originally thought that at most only a nest of six or seven weasels would come to cause trouble, and all they needed to do was help Liu Yu fight off the weasels.

But the current situation is clearly not just a single group; at least several groups of relatives and in-laws have come together!

They deliberately drove a large group of monsters into Black Mountain Village.

The target is no longer just Liu Yu, but to wipe out the entire Black Mountain Village!

"What a dilapidated house! It'll catch fire at the slightest touch!"

Qin Lie looked back at the house they had just been in, which had been set ablaze by several fiery monsters.

When Liao Ning and the others heard Qin Lie's cursing, they pursed their lips and did not refute him.

"Black Mountain Village only possesses a set of low-level spirit runes to defend against monsters, so there's no need to have too high expectations."

Tang Jing offered a reassuring remark.

"We told them to buy a set of powerful spirit runes from us a long time ago, but they absolutely refused, insisting that it was enough and we didn't need to worry about it. Now look what happened!"

Tang Jing said helplessly:

"Our set of spirit runes requires materials from spirits, but they don't have the habit of hunting spirits."

"Moreover, this place is in a special location, so there aren't many spirits or monsters around, and there's no corresponding source of spirit or monster materials."

"The set of spirit patterns they have only requires the essence blood of cultivators to set up, which is very convenient, and materials can be obtained at any time."

Qin Lie said with a hint of sarcasm, "I heard they wanted to go to town to buy better ones, which just means they think our spirit patterns aren't good enough."

"Alright, that's enough."

Tang Jing frowned.

Qin Lie snorted coldly and said nothing more.

If it weren't for the low level of spirit patterns in the houses of Black Mountain Village, they wouldn't have been exposed to danger and become easy targets for the spirits.

Faced with a barrage of fierce attacks, everyone couldn't help but feel some anger and resentment.

Liu Yu looked at them with a look of fear, afraid that he would be abandoned by these people.

Black Mountain Village was plunged into chaos.

Many houses were burned down by the red-hot monster, leaving the villagers homeless.

Liao Ning and his group rallied together to fight off the monsters, but there were always areas they couldn't cover.

Many people instantly became lambs to the slaughter, their flesh and blood devoured by the monsters.

Screams erupted from all sides.

A hint of paleness and confusion appeared on their faces.

The village had never encountered such a situation before...

"It's all your fault! If you hadn't summoned the weasel, how could our village have become like this?" An aunt strode over, her eyes red, staring intently at Liu Yu and cursing him.

Her eldest son and two daughters were just devoured alive by the monster.

His spirit had collapsed.

Upon learning that Liu Yu was the culprit, she immediately pounced on him.

"Auntie Xiaohua, I didn't want to either! If I had known that Uncle Lin Hui's kettle would attract weasels, I would never have dared to touch it even if you beat me to death!" Liu Yu cried out in protest.

"This is the most dangerous time for us, Aunt Xiaohua. Please calm down and let's talk about it after we get through tonight, okay?"

"Hand him over! As long as we hand him over to the weasel, we'll be safe! We'll be safe!"

Aunt Xiaohua shouted hoarsely.
