Chapter 486: 486
As they ran past some of the houses in the village, Shen Yanxiao and the Vermillion Bird saw many people as they ran in desperation .
They were a group of men who looked to be in the prime of their age . Based on how they dressed, Shen Yanxiao deduced that they were a team of mercenaries . However, they did not look like hot-blooded warriors at that moment . All of them looked ghastly pale as they ran for their lives . It also looked like they had similar wounds on their body, and it looked as if sharp claws had made those wounds . The injuries cut through their clothes and into their flesh . Red liquid oozed from their wounds and yet none of them stopped to dress the cuts .
Shen Yanxiao finally understood the reason for that . She saw some crazy dark shadows chasing those men from behind . When they had a chance, they would jump on the mercenaries as they ran for their lives at an incredible speed .
Shen Yanxiao and Vermilion Bird found a low-rise thatched cottage that they could hide in .
However, what they saw next shocked them greatly!
They could finally see the real appearance of those black shadows under the moonlight . It was the villagers! They roared as they chased after the mercenaries with their farming tools . The villagers had a dull expression in their eyes, but they had looked ferocious! They leaned forward, just like the preying beasts .
Shen Yanxiao saw Ah Ke and Old Ba, the two men that she met in the day, amongst that group of insane villagers .
The two of them had no weapon in their hand . That was probably because they had to use them to run around the village on all four limbs .
It looked like the kind and pleasant villagers had turned into animals under the moonlight . It was a nightmare for everyone involved!
Shen Yanxiao took a deep breath . The kind villagers that she had met in the day had turned so savage and violent at night . She found such contrast was too difficult to accept .
She finally understood what had happened to the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group that night . It was an utter shock!
Who would have known that the kind villagers would transform into beast-like behavior after night fell?
Shen Yanxiao could imagine what the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group had gone through the night of the attack .
Some of the mercenaries would scream in terror and desperation every few moments . They also tried to summon their magical beasts to deal with those crazy villagers . However, the villagers had ignored those magical beasts . It was as if they could not see them! They ran past the magical beasts and rushed toward the mercenaries instead .
The magical beasts attacked the villagers at their master’s command . Still, the villagers ignored the magical beasts and did not fight back them all . Their angry eyes were still fixated on the mercenaries . The villagers ran amok as they completely ignored any magical beast that stood in their way .
It was as if they saw nothing else other than the mercenaries . Everything else was only the air that they breathed .
Shen Yanxiao looked at the situation with a heavy heart .
It seemed like the villagers had caught every one of the mercenaries . Based on the look on the villagers’ faces, she could only assume what had happened to them .
She had no idea what triggered the villagers into that state, and she did not have the time to think about that .
She had a feeling she knew why that had happened, though . Whether it was the Cave Wolves Mercenary Group or the mercenaries she had just seen, it was likely that they were on their way to the Graveyard of the Sun . The village existed so its inhabitants could stop those who wanted to go to the Graveyard of the Sun!
