The young man walked out of the dark night.
A deep light flashed in his amber pupils.
His face was clear-cut and angular, with a wild and flamboyant look.
At the end of his slender fingers were hidden sharp nails, and between his fingers were still pieces of meat left over from his previous meal.
In the jungle behind him, bones were thrown on the ground at random, and the blood had not yet dried.
The young man slowly walked towards the post station, stretched out his right little finger, and dug out the meat stuck in his teeth.
His eyes were scorching and aggressive, and they looked particularly creepy under the bright moonlight.
"I didn't enjoy the meal just now at all. The meat was tough and dry, not tasty at all.
The young man came to the entrance of the post station and gently blew out the red lantern hanging at the entrance.
"I heard there are many tender girls here, which should be enough to whet my appetite."
He pushed open the door and entered the courtyard of the post station, his gray-white nails extending little by little with his footsteps.
Just as he was about to enjoy a sumptuous meal, he heard a whistling sound of wind.
The young man frowned and turned back.
In the night sky, dozens of arrows flew towards him like lightning.
The young man snorted coldly, and a wisp of dark red demonic energy escaped from his pores and gathered on his two forearms.
Then, he waved his claws as hard as iron and stone, and smashed the oncoming rain of arrows into pieces very lightly.
With the blessing of the demonic energy, these hidden arrows could not even get close to him. His body was unable to move, and it was already showing signs of weakness just one meter away, as if it had hit an invisible wall of iron.
Sparks and the clanging sounds of iron weapons echoed continuously in the night sky.
For the last arrow, the young man put away his murderous aura, raised his right hand calmly, and grasped the unstoppable arrow firmly in his palm with exquisite precision.
He stared at the dense forest under the cover of night and revealed a cruel smile.
The next moment, his expression suddenly turned cold, and he turned the arrow head and"returned" the feather arrow. In an instant
, the birds and beasts in the dense forest were startled, and at the same time, a human scream was heard.
"Now that you are here, why don’t you show yourself?"
The young man turned towards the direction where the voice came from and laughed playfully.
In the dense forest, a group of people were scattered and hiding behind the trees.
They were all wearing the same black and gold robes, and their faces were serious and nervous.
""Old Li, how is the little monkey injured?" A middle-aged man wearing a silver arm guard asked in a deep voice.
In an open space behind the team, there was a pale-faced boy lying. He looked less than 20 years old.
The boy closed his eyes tightly, his lips were slightly purple, and a feather arrow was stuck in the middle of his right chest.
It was the"return gift" given to them by the young man with gray fur at the post station."
"Captain Guo, this arrow carries the evil spirit of the wolf demon. Although it did not hurt the vital parts, if he is not treated in time before dawn, he may die."Li Hu said solemnly. The other members of the team looked at each other with complicated expressions.
The little monkey had just joined not long ago, and he did not expect to encounter an accident on his first mission.
This optimistic and cheerful boy has injected new vitality and passion into this once dead team.
Now that the little monkey is seriously injured and unconscious, everyone is holding their breath and wants to avenge him and kill the wolf demon outside.
But no one acted on their own.
On the one hand, they abide by the discipline. Without the order of Captain Guo Qi, they can only stay where they are.
On the other hand, everyone knows how cruel and terrible the wolf demon is, and it is not something their eight-man team can deal with.
Guo Qi glanced at the little monkey whose breath was gradually weakening, and he was annoyed.
If he had known, he would not have brought him out........
This child is everyone's happy fruit. Guo Qi even regards him as an apprentice and teaches him everything he has learned.
When Guo Qi received the task, he already knew that this task would be dangerous.
But the little monkey insisted on coming along. He said that no matter how dangerous it was, he would face it with everyone........
Guo Qi punched the tree trunk in front of him in self-blame, and a dent the size of a bowl appeared where his fist landed.
"Captain Guo, saving the little monkey's life is the most important thing, why don't we retreat first?"
Guo Qi really wanted to do this. He had risked his life for the court for more than 20 years, and he wanted to be selfish for once.
But.......He looked down and realized that his black feather suit did not allow him to do so!
Wearing this suit represented the supreme glory of the Demon Suppression Division.
If he fled from the battlefield, it would undoubtedly tarnish the duties and missions given to them by the black feather suit.
"We can't retreat." Guo Qi gritted his teeth and said.
He knew that his decision was almost equivalent to sentencing the little monkey to death.
After hearing this, the other people also looked very depressed.
"Captain Guo, can you bear to see the little monkey die in front of everyone? We clearly had a chance to save him. If he knew that we didn't save him, he would be very sad!"
Guo Qi's eyes were red, but his decision could not be changed.
"If we withdraw, what will happen to the people in the post station? If we save the little monkey's life, who will save those people's lives?"
He took a deep breath, and his resolute eyes swept over the team members one by one.
"Don't forget why we joined the Demon Suppression Division in the first place."
"I believe that if the little monkey could speak, he would choose to sacrifice himself and save more people."
Everyone lowered their eyes, with mixed feelings in their hearts.
Guo Qi was right. Although they had not spent much time with the little monkey, they all knew that this was a passionate and kind-hearted child.
If they gave up more innocent lives in the post station in order to save him, the little monkey would resent them even if he survived.
"Cheer up!"Guo Qi growled to boost morale.
"Whether it is to avenge the little monkey or to fulfill his ideal, we must do our best tonight to stop the wolf demon from slaughtering people."
Everyone's expression became serious, and the haze in their hearts was temporarily swept away, and they devoted themselves to the next monster hunting operation.
"Ding Meng, hurry up. We will distract the wolf demon. You go around to the post station from the side and evacuate the people inside as soon as possible."
"The rest of you, follow me and Li Hubing and split into two groups to help Ding Meng delay as much time as possible."
""Yes, sir!"
