"Evacuate everyone! Head to the underground shelters! Quickly!"

"All knight wolves, prepare for battle! This is an attack!"

"Ports are places where people gather, so they should be protected as a priority!"

The orders of the Wolf Knights echoed through the streets, and every household rushed out to flee, heading to underground shelters as they had done in the previous air raid drills. The shadow of the Golden Eagle Demon reappeared, obscuring the entire street and causing the already fragile order to completely collapse.

Screams erupted as carnivorous monsters circled overhead. Each time the Golden Eagle Demon moved, the resulting waves were like churning ocean tides, easily toying with humans and displaying all sorts of grotesque antics.

"Get out of my way!" The shorter people were knocked down by the taller ones, and the taller ones were hit by cars and thrown into the air. For a moment, there was no traffic rule on the street.

Explosions erupted as air blasts were launched from the sky towards the ground, bombarding people's fields and destroying their "nests." The Golden Eagle Demon's targeted attack aimed to destroy human life and erase their will to live.

"Hehehe, why not take it if it's free?" Some people stuffed things into their pockets while everyone was fleeing, their eyes only on the glittering treasures. In the end, they were left behind by the flaming roof beams.

Fear gripped them as the golden eagle demon swooped down, blocking the path of the crowd heading to the refuge. It howled as it chased after the humans who were with the wolf beasts. The life-or-death struggle for survival had begun, yet some were willingly allowed to be hunted by the enemy.

"Where did those wolf riders go? Where did those damned bastards run off to?!"

"They must have gone to help the rich people escape first, leaving us here to feed the monsters!"

"Get out of here! Don't come near me! Ah—"

The Golden Eagle Demon's wings cracked the surrounding walls, and it stretched out its sharp claws to stomp on the humans at its feet. The giant bird's claws, which were thirty meters tall, were larger than an adult human, and each stomp left tearing marks.

The eagle's claws were already out, but the wolf's fangs arrived first. The female wolf warrior, attacking from behind, bit the golden eagle demon's shoulder and used the momentum from her run to slam the golden eagle demon into another street, completely opening up the passage that had been blocked on the way to the underground shelter.

"Everyone, follow me! Quickly to the underground shelter! Don't be greedy for money! Hurry!"

Zhao Yu's call brought most people back to their senses from the panic they had just experienced, and without saying a word, they quickly ran towards the shelter. Ajiu followed Zhao Yu to assist with the evacuation work. The members of the Magicians' Guild only knew about the two of them at the moment.

More golden eagle demons appeared in the sky, and explosions were heard continuously at the distant port. The shadowy figures of the golden eagle demons moved back and forth on the ground, while the knight wolves, who were on guard nearby, were also watching with predatory eyes.

After another street assault, the female wolf was hit by a gas blast and rolled to the ground. However, the blood on her lips and the broken feathers made her ignore the pain, and her whole body was in a wild state.

The golden eagle demon, with its injured shoulder, tried to take flight again, but its desperate flapping of wings was merely a last-ditch effort. Unable to soar high, it was spotted by the knight wolves because of its actions, and the three wolves attacked together, pinning the golden eagle demon to the ground.

"What should we do, Haruki? Should we join the battle?"

"No, there are too many people here. We can't fight the monster with people all around us."

Sean carried a person with a leg injury out of the hospital, handed him over to the others, and then met up with Yaohui. The hospital was now a key evacuation zone, as there were too many humans and wolves with mobility issues who needed help.

A blast of air struck this direction. Haruki had already set up a protective barrier to shield everyone, while Yuuji Junsei maintained the physical condition of the wounded around him while also preparing energy to deal with the monster's attack at any time.

Moreover, the situation in the distant port area must be even more dire, as it is the most densely populated area, with many people who have boarded the ship and have nowhere to retreat.

If the place were besieged by the Golden Eagle Demons, the consequences would be unimaginable for Haruki. Once the hospital was almost completely evacuated, Haruki would have to go there immediately to provide support.

The streets were in complete chaos. After seeing their companions being killed by a pack of wolves, the other golden eagle demons no longer dared to descend to the ground easily. Instead, they kept releasing air blasts to attack the wolves and humans on the ground, trying to kill as many as possible.

The way of survival for wild beasts is never to confront difficulties head-on or engage in fierce battles. The key is to use one's own strength to achieve absolute dominance and acquire the resources one needs with minimal risk.

The golden eagle demons circling in the air possess extraordinary, top-notch eyesight. They are using their eyes to search for potential targets that can achieve the above conditions, regardless of whether they are old, weak, sick, disabled, young, or children. Once they are eaten and buried in the ground, they are all the same.

"How's the situation now, doctor? Have all the humans and wolves in the hospital been evacuated?"

"Most of them have been moved, but the little wolf you brought today is a bit out of control and doesn't want to come with us. We can't persuade it no matter what we do."

After most of them evacuated to underground shelters, Zhao Yu went to the hospital to check on the situation, but the news she heard was not good. The Golden Eagle Demon in the sky was still there and did not retreat. Zhao Yu could not let a child hide in the house alone for refuge.

Rushing into the hospital, Zhao Yu slammed open the door to Xiao Lang's room. Seeing Xiao Lang curled up in the corner, she slowed her pace and slowly approached him.

"It's alright, little one, it's me. Do you remember me? Your mother and I brought you here. It's dangerous here now, you have to come with me to a safe place, okay?"

With her heart pounding and her voice soft, Zhao Yu was desperately trying to control her fear. She knew very well that she was just a human being, and if the hospital were to be destroyed now, she would be in grave danger.

The wolf cub's eyes revealed fear—fear of the view outside the window, of its surroundings, of everything here. It could understand the meaning of the words spoken by the humans in front of it, but it found it difficult to listen. All it wanted now was its mother.

"Listen to me carefully. I will protect you, just like your mother does. Trust me, okay? Your mother is protecting everyone right now, and what I need to do is protect you."

Zhao Yu slowly approached the little wolf, reaching out to try and stroke it, to soothe it. If she could touch the little wolf, her magic would have a better effect.

A snapping sound came from the wolf's teeth. The uncontrollable fear transformed into anger and violence. The little wolf glared fiercely at the human who tried to approach it. After forcing her back, the little wolf quickly fled along the wall.

The little wolf had rarely seen humans and didn't understand how it could understand human speech. But regardless, its fear far outweighed its reason. Compared to a human who kept talking as soon as he entered, the little wolf preferred to believe the wall behind it.

Another series of explosions occurred on the street, this time with far greater force than any before. The railings near the explosion point were blasted to smithereens, and walls a little further away were also shattered and collapsed by the shockwave.

The sudden turn of events caught the little wolf completely off guard. The danger from behind made it instinctively close its eyes, its body tense and ready to endure pain and pressure. But things didn't go as the little wolf feared. Instead, it felt a sense of relief being released in its heart.

"It's alright, child. I told you, I will protect you, just like your mother protected me."

When the wolf cub opened its eyes, it found that the human was embracing it. It could smell smoke and blood on her. When it looked up, it saw that her once pretty face was now covered in dust and had several cuts.

The emaciated wolf cub was easily picked up by Zhao Yu. Although Zhao Yu used magic to enhance the process, the result was good. The fearful and uneasy wolf cub finally calmed down and was willing to follow the arrangements of itself and the others, cooperating with everyone to go to the shelter.

After the magic's enhancement was removed, Zhao Yu felt soreness all over her body. It was clear that enduring the collapse of the wall was not something an ordinary person should do, and now even if Zhao Yu wanted to stand up, she would have to exert all her strength.

A fierce wind swept in, churning the surrounding ground. Now was the opportunity the golden eagle demons had been waiting for. They seized the last wolf cubs that had managed to escape, then flapped their wings and flew away with their companions who were hunting prey.

The hunt never stopped!
