Having finally escaped the ambush of those unknown creatures, going back now would undoubtedly be like walking into a tiger's mouth.

But Ye Xi was not completely cold-hearted. After thinking it over, he decided to go back and find Xiao You.

If I just turn around and leave without looking back, I will feel very guilty.

"I've been tossing and turning all night. It feels like I'm doing archaeology."

"On this dark and windy night, it's inevitable that we'll encounter some accidents while walking on the mountain road. You better follow me closely."

Xiaer understood what "accident" Ye Xi was talking about. Her heart had begun to waver. It was pitch black all around, and a cold wind blew from time to time.

It felt like a ferocious beast would jump out from behind the tree at any moment and eat them all up.

And there were lush leaves that almost blocked out all the moonlight.

The only light was the flashlight in Ye Xi's hand as they walked along this rugged and steep mountain road.

"Ye Xi...I seemed to see a shadow just now."

"It must be an illusion. I didn't see anything."

“But I really saw it…”

Charles spoke with a trembling voice, and she looked around, feeling extremely anxious.

Just then, Ye Xi stopped.

"Ah...what happened?"

Ye Xi frowned slightly, her gaze fixed on the tree trunk in front of her.

A black shadow slowly appeared in their sight, which frightened Charles and he quickly hid behind Ye Xi.

Ye Xi gradually saw the other party's appearance clearly. It was a four-legged creature. One could vaguely see that it had a lot of hair and a pair of eyes that glowed in the dark.

When it saw Ye Xi, it just wagged its tail briefly, stood there staring for a few seconds, and then turned and left.

Then he turned around and looked again.

"Is it signaling us to follow?"

"Should we follow them then?"

After thinking for a moment, Ye Xi took a step forward and walked forward.

Sure enough, the cat-like creature also started walking.

Gradually, it walked faster and faster, and Ye Xi followed closely behind. Seeing Ye Xi running away, Xiaer immediately chased after it.

“Slow…slow down!”

"Ye Xi, why are you running?"

Ye Xi followed it through a bush. Xia Er, who was not as fast as Ye Xi, also ran through it in a sissy way.

The scene behind the bushes left Charles stunned.

"Xiaoyou!"

Charles shouted Xiaoyou's name. She was floating in fear on the branch of a tree.

Below was a group of unidentified creatures, some with four legs, some walking independently, and even a giant spider weaving a web and approaching Xiaoyou.

"This is what Beelzebub said—the beast that walks at night..."

"We move at night and in groups. Ye Xi, what should we do now?"

At this time, Ye Xi and Xia Er were standing on a slope, looking at the nocturnal beasts below that were eyeing Xiao You hungrily.

I wondered why a nocturnal beast would target a ghost?

Ghosts are not physical, so even if they are caught, there will be no serious consequences.

Moreover, this is in the mountains and forests. If we start a war rashly, it might attract other wild animals or their companions.

However, at this moment, Charles took out his bow and arrow, aimed at the giant spider and prepared to shoot the arrow.

"The number isn't huge, but we can't rule out the possibility that they have companions nearby."

"Char, I'll leave that giant spider to you. I'll go fight the other side."

"Wait a minute, at least let me give you support..."

Before Charles could finish his words, Ye Xi had already rushed down to face them.

Knowing that the action had begun, Charles ignored everything else and drew his bow to shoot a wind magic arrow.

"Wind Magic: Violent Wind Arrow!"

As he gathered his magic power, a clear green light appeared around Ciel, surrounding the arrow.

The arrow's trajectory would leave traces of magic, swift and powerful, directly piercing the spider's abdomen and creating a rapid wind field that tore the spider apart.

Ye Xi was also happy when he saw it, and took away the giant spider with one blow.

When the other nocturnal animals saw the broken spider limbs scattered on the ground, they all turned their attention to Charles.

Charles's temperament was exceptionally calm at this moment, and he looked down without any nervousness on his face.

"Ye Xi, it's up to you!"

Before they could react, there was a sudden buzzing sound in the air, and Ye Xi, holding a laser sword, split their bodies in two.

"Do you even need to say this?"

Heart-wrenching howls were suddenly heard at the scene, and Ye Xi discovered that there were all kinds of faces mixed in with the nocturnal beasts.

There are lions, cheetahs, tigers, and orcs. Their bodies are deep gray, and there is light mist swirling around them.

When you get close, you can smell a rotten stench that is disgusting.

"It turns out they are just zombies. They have been dead for a long time."

Ye Xi threw the laser sword in his hand, and it went straight through the body of the nocturnal beast and finally returned to his hand.

When they are killed, they do not leave behind a corpse, but instead a part of their body suddenly disappears.

Even without a head, you can still move, but without legs, you can only lie on the ground.

Ye Xi soon realized this and cut off all their legs.

When facing orcs, it was so tall and used its powerful destructive power to smash a hole in the ground.

When it punched at him, Ye Xi immediately jumped up and rolled forward, ran along its arm, and then cut off its head with a laser sword.

Cleanly and neatly, after the head fell to the ground, its body was still able to move. Ye Xi immediately kicked it again and knocked it to the ground.

"Let's go!"

Xiaoyou was successfully rescued by Charles, and just as the three of them were about to run down the mountain.

A nocturnal wild boar charged directly towards him, and Ye Xi quickly raised his laser sword and let it hit him directly.

With a sizzling sound, the wild boar was split into two halves.

"Sure enough, there are their companions nearby."

At this moment, ferocious-looking nocturnal beasts were hiding behind the surrounding woods, and they began to approach the location of the three people.

"We are surrounded..."

"Oh no, Sister Xiaer, Xiaoyou is scared..."

"There's nothing we can do. There's no one guarding this place anyway. The worst that can happen is we can just execute a dimensionality reduction attack."

A light flashed in Ye Xi's left eye, a pattern appeared in his pupil, and an electronic sound effect was emitted.

Just when Ye Xi was about to use the one-click clearing plan, an uninvited guest arrived at the scene.

It is larger than any nocturnal beast present, and can clear out the nocturnal beast in front of it with just one claw.

It just let out a loud roar, and the nocturnal beast retreated uncontrollably.

Its eyes are as bright as stars, and its appearance can be seen clearly in the dark.

It was a huge four-legged creature with dense hair and stripes, and it just appeared above the three of them, as if offering protection.
