After dinner, everyone gathered around the fire, and Karens also helped Art treat the wound-although it was just a simple replacement of the bandage.

To Art's surprise, Karens, who seemed to be smooth-talking and not serious at all, was actually a good hand at treating wounds.

"Okay!" After stuffing a roll of bandages back into his waist pocket, Karens clapped his hands.

"Thank you very much." Art expressed his thanks.

Seeing Karens bandage up Art, Lourdes nodded and said: "Take care of this, and then assign the night watch."

Although it is said that wild beasts will basically not approach such a large team, they cannot relax their vigilance. In order to prevent accidents, night watchmen are still deployed.

Lourdes' eyes swept around everyone's faces: "Yesterday, Lawrence and Karens were the patrollers. Baft, Mars, Caulius, and Dogart also patrolled. Who are the remaining people?"

Are you willing to take charge of patrol today?"

They set out from the border of Serra County three days ago, and they can reach DeLord County tomorrow. They only need to patrol for one more day and night.

Each mercenary team will send two people to patrol the night. Basically, they only need to walk around the team.

He also did not specify who would join the patrol team. Anyone who wanted to can come, and he would also patrol as a night watchman today.

Everyone looked at each other, Maiya and Hughes blinked, and turned their heads in unison. Andos thought about it and was about to speak out, but then he heard Art's voice: "I

bring it on."

Because of his injuries, he couldn't lie down and rest, so he could only meditate instead of sleep. He could just patrol by himself, and it wouldn't affect anything anyway.

"You're injured, so you should rest." Andos glanced at him and shook his head, "It's fine if the captain and I come, and you'll do it next time."

Lourdes also nodded, his sense of Art was very good: "I'll wait until next time."

Art didn't insist and went to rest. The two looked at each other and walked out of the camp, preparing to patrol the night.

...

As time passed and the weather gradually cooled down, Art, who had replaced sleep with meditation, suddenly woke up from the peaceful feeling of meditation.

The sudden sting caused him to open his eyes and look at the culprit - Black Crow Glora.

"What's wrong?" Under the light of the campfire with only sparks left, Art looked at his thighs with some doubts. He lay on the hat on his thighs to rest Black Crow Glorora, with no intention of resting at all.

Pulling on the hem of his clothes, the pair of black eyes that reflected a little light stared straight at him.

"Yeah - yeah -"

A low and hoarse crow sounded, and Art could feel a sense of impatience in it.

At this time, a voice sounded from his right side:

"Did you feel it too!?"

Art turned his head, and through the slight sparks of light and the moonlight leaking from the clouds, he could barely make out who the broad silhouette was standing not far away.

"Mars? What's wrong?"

"I'm not sure." Mars' voice was solemn. "Little Wei Lun suddenly bit my ear and woke me up. I'll wake up the others first and light the fire."

"Get up! Get up! Karens! Lawrence! Baft..."

Art stood up, listened to the low shouts coming from behind, and looked around, looking in the direction of other camps, and found that the fires in many camps were gradually lighting up.

Something must have happened.

Led by the gathering place of the mercenaries, the fires of many camps lit up one after another. At this time, Art heard another cry:

"Wolf! There is a wolf!"

Ouch——

Awww——

The howls of wolves echoed around the camp.

"Rat!"

Hearing his name, Art quickly turned his head and saw Lourdes and Andos running quickly.

"What happened? Wolves!?" he asked quickly. The others had already woken up, knew there was a situation, and hurriedly came over.

Lourdes and Andos had very ugly expressions, and they kept holding their weapons in their hands, facing away from the camp.

"Wolves, so many wolves!" Lourdes said solemnly, "They are all on guard and ready to fight."

After hearing Lourdes' words, everyone immediately drew their weapons, got into formation, and prepared to fight.

Because of the movement of the mercenaries and the howling of wolves, some people in the caravan woke up. Even the mercenaries were a little panicked. These ordinary people were not so calm and gradually became commotion.

At this time, Art also saw the wolves clearly...

Densely packed, dozens, no, hundreds of wolves glowing red appeared in front of everyone's eyes, but in front of them, there was also a sea of ​​red in other directions.

Thousands? Tens of thousands?

The huge number made everyone in the Lourdes Mercenary Group widen their eyes, and Art could even hear the hissing around him.

The same goes for him. These wolves are not ordinary beasts, but monsters.

The lava-like black-red fur and the orange-red light gaps on the fur seemed to come from the abyss.

The demonic wolves immediately reminded Art of what they were talking about last night - the demon warlock.

Mercenaries may be able to deal with hundreds of wild beasts, but... thousands of demon wolves?

The sea of ​​scorching red wolves that had surrounded the entire camp, and the wolf howls full of madness, filled everyone's hearts with despair.

"Why are there so many..." Andos's voice trembled. He, who had always been very calm, couldn't help it at this time.

"Don't be timid!" Lourdes growled, "If you fight hard, you still have a chance to survive. If you try to escape, you will only die!"

Maiya's face was extremely pale, and her voice was a little hoarse and a little desperate: "...If you try hard, you will die. There is no way you can survive."

Art clenched his fists and said nothing.

Are you going to die?

"No, no..." Art said in a hoarse voice, "They haven't launched an attack yet, maybe there is still a chance..."

A glimmer of hope emerged in everyone's hearts, which were filled with despair.

Is there really hope?

However, at this moment, the wolves launched an attack.

The wolves rushed over like a sea of ​​burning red.

"ah!!!"

In the outermost mercenary group, a pale man screamed in surprise when facing the terrifying wolves.

The swordsmanship that he was originally proud of could not be used calmly. He swung his sword in a panic, trying to block the wolves. Some of the other mercenaries around him raised their weapons, and some ran away desperately.

However, it's of no use.

In an instant, they were overwhelmed by the red-hot, crazy wolves. There was no room for resistance at all, and the demon wolves rushed directly and tore them into pieces of flesh and blood.

...

Behind the wolves, a humanoid creature with a wolf head and two horns on its head was watching all this silently.

The other parts of his body were like a combination of humans, demons, and wolves, twisted and chaotic. His bright red eyes were filled with madness and hatred, and a glimmer of clarity that flashed from time to time was eventually overwhelmed by the chaos.

"All die...all die..."

The hoarse voice, amidst the screams of humans and the crazy roar of the demon wolf, did not stir up any trouble.

He slowly turned around and looked in the direction of Delud Town: "I'm back, Duff Simmons, I'm back for revenge."

He looked at his palms, which were no longer humanoid at all because of his desperate efforts to obtain the power of the abyss.

"I, An Suxi, have come back for revenge..." he roared, with unquenchable hatred in his voice, "I did nothing wrong! Nothing wrong! I didn't kill anyone! Still!

Hidden the castle! Why!?”

The words that have been spoken tens of thousands of times are heard again.

The screams behind him gradually disappeared.

All that's left is the howl of the wolf.

The red demon wolves gathered behind him again, but after the killing, the eyes of these demon wolves were filled with the madness of killing, and the eyes looking at their master An Suxi also had a rich look in their eyes.

murderous intent.

"The target is over there." An Suxi turned a deaf ear to the strong murderous intent, raised his arm and pointed at Dilude Town in the distance.

A series of mental waves were emitted from his body, guiding them.

Most of the demon wolves howled and roared, and rushed towards Dilude Town. A distance of more than ten kilometers was nothing to these crazy monsters. They had plenty of endurance.

An Suxi just quietly watched the red wave rushing toward Dilude Town, took steps, and moved forward with the wave.

Time passes slowly and the sky gradually gets brighter.

All that was left in place was a blood-red patch.
