Chapter 1126: The Monster in the Night

A villager pondered and said: "Could it be to deceive people, to prevent anyone from breaking in here, and to prevent anyone from accidentally destroying the Demon God's seal?"

This idea was agreed upon by quite a few people.

However, the Peacock Man raised a question.

"I think that layer of black mist is not simple."

"Judging from the color, the formation of the black mist is very likely some kind of method used by the Demon Race."

"Moreover, if it were to stop others from destroying the seal, they could have completely set up a barrier to make people unable to reach this place; why make it so mysterious?"

"I think the reason why they make us keep walking in circles in place is that they don't want us to find the Demon God's seal."

The villager who spoke just now curled his lips, thinking to himself: Isn't what you said the same as what I said?

"No matter who did it, they don't want us to find the location of the Demon God's seal." Shui Linglong stood out to ease the somewhat awkward atmosphere.

Everyone discussed it again, and then they each went back to rest.

At night, a slender black shadow suddenly appeared outside a tent.

In a brief moment, the black shadow shot into the tent like a sword.

Following that, someone let out a scream.

It was exceptionally loud in the quiet night.

It made people's eardrums ache.

Chen Ang and the others immediately crawled out of their tents and ran toward the location where the sound came from.

Arriving in front of the tent, they saw that one of their teammates had already died miserably inside the tent.

And the other person who lived with him was sitting blankly inside the tent, seemingly not having figured out what had happened.

"What's going on?" A villager asked.

The person in the tent shook his head, looked at the companion who had fallen beside him, and said tremblingly: "I don't know what's going on either."

"I was sleeping, and suddenly he started screaming, and then he became like this."

Everyone carefully observed the surroundings and discovered that there was a hole the size of a finger pad on the tent.

There were two smaller holes on the right side of the corpse's neck, as if it had been bitten by something.

Shui Linglong carefully observed the wound and said: "It seems to have been bitten by a snake."

As he spoke, he furrowed his brows and added: "But, what kind of snake is so powerful that it can make someone die from poison immediately?"

Just as everyone was thinking and discussing, a black shadow suddenly drifted past their eyes.

The speed of that black shadow was extremely fast, and because its figure was relatively long, it was captured by everyone.

Everyone immediately chased in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.

But after chasing for only a few steps, the black shadow disappeared without a trace.

A villager scratched his hair and said: "It seems to be a snake."

"However, how can a snake fly from mid-air?"

The Peacock Man sneered, "Heh, don't you guys forget what place this is."

"Perhaps that is not an ordinary snake, but a kind of demonic creature."

Everyone nodded silently.

Subsequently, everyone buried the corpse on the spot.

After such an incident, everyone had no mood to rest, and they didn't dare to rest alone.

Everyone decided to stand guard here for the night; perhaps that monster would appear again.

But after the night passed, that monster never appeared.

After dawn, everyone checked the surroundings again.

Especially the ground.

What shocked everyone was that there were no traces of anything being pressed on the ground.

In other words, that thing did not crawl, but was always in a state of being off the ground.

This made everyone more convinced that it was not a snake, but some kind of demonic creature. ===== CHAPTER 1127 =====
