What happened in the past few days was a disaster for a large number of residents in Katris City, and they mercilessly destroyed their daily lives.⊙,

Although the people in the city hall dealt with it in a timely manner and sent considerable personnel to evacuate and maintain order, it also means that some people must be active on the front line to fight the enemies that create chaos. They are not just messengers of justice in the story, but just some ordinary people.

This is just a job, and they have faithfully fulfilled their responsibilities - although this responsibility has definitely not received much reward for them. Although each of them knows that their lives are not guaranteed now, they can only work diligently in this position.

The red sky seemed to have cracked, and the dancing lightning danced in the almost bleeding clouds. The vortex red kept making a roar that made people feel cold in their hearts. Even those who had never been afraid of storms in the past would stay away from the vortex as far as possible when they saw this scene.

It was like a doomsday scene, with heavy red clouds covering the sky and completely covering the sun. It was clearly noon now, but the sun was no longer visible - there was only deep red residual light left in the sky, and the ground was also swallowed by the surging darkness.

"Who? Is there anyone?"

Amid the ruins destroyed by the war, a middle-aged guard held the tactical lamp to his cheek and looked at the alley in a little panic in front of him, covered with shadows of the buildings. The circular light moved around the collapsed pile of rubble, sweeping through the edges of the woodwork that was still emitting black smoke.

In his memory, this place was once a bustling shopping street. Several cheap wooden signs are still neatly arranged on both sides of the passage. However, most of the houses that were once shops have been damaged in the battle just now, with clearly visible bullet holes scattered on the walls.

The guards stopped cautiously and used the tactical lights in their hands to sweep through the corners where the enemy might be hiding. The windows illuminated by the kind white lights are like shiny black stone slabs, reflecting a blurry luster like a marble surface. However, there are no signs of biological activity.

Seeing this, he took a deep breath, then held his breath and listened quietly to the movement hidden in the ruins - it was not that he was too concerned. Although it was very weak, there were indeed indistinguishable sounds in that silence, and it was impossible to tell whether the victim who had no time to evacuate or had already set his sights on his enemies.

Cold sweat appeared on his forehead. The inexplicable tension prompted him to hold the tactical lamp with his left hand, and at the same time use his right hand to pull out the mechanic gun that was tied with the armed arm around his waist. The muscles in his body became tense, and the body, which insisted on exercising every day, became extremely sensitive at this time.

"Headquarters, have you heard it? There is something strange about the shopping street in the third area. Request for reinforcements." The object of his speech was a metal device installed on his shoulder. The spells told him that he could use this thing to contact the Ministry, "repeat it and ask for support."

If it weren't for the surging darkness that dispersed their team, he wouldn't be willing to act alone. After all, anyone knows that it's quite dangerous to act alone in a crisis-ridden environment. However, the enemy seemed to aim at this point, which made the black mud cut off their path.

In fact, being dispersed should have been considered a relatively good result, because someone discovered an abnormal situation a few minutes before the darkness rushed over.

The ground was shaking. Even the buildings on both sides of the street made a creaking sound, and the devil sent by the spells to the nearby area suddenly lost contact. This was an obvious abnormal situation, so the captain immediately asked them to scatter into the nearby ruins and hide.

But what they expected was that from the corner at the end of the road, they were not the monsters condensed by mud, nor were the magicians, but the thicker black mucus. They rushed out of the street corners like an explosion of mountain torrents, directly separating the guards hiding everywhere.

"Understand. The location has been determined." A male voice came from the machine on the shoulders of the device, the voice of the guard officer who stayed in the headquarters. "You'd better find a safe place nearby to hide it, and we'll be able to send people to help you soon."

With the help of the communicator handed over by the spell, they did not lose contact—in fact, they were not isolated. Although the surging darkness cut off their way, it was obviously not enough to block all the roads. They just need to take a few long roads to return to the headquarters.

But he had to walk a long way, and there might be a hidden ambush along the way. The reason why the enemy divided them was undoubtedly to defeat them one by one. He had already known that the road ahead was the most dangerous because the situation in the nearby neighborhood was still unclear.

"No, no, the other party has discovered me and maybe he has targeted me from the beginning." The voice of his speech was pressed to the limit, and even the security officer opposite the machine subconsciously cooperated with him and lowered his speech. "It's better to catch them off guard than passive defense."

Although he knew that the other party proposed the safest plan, he refused to do so. The direction of the sound coming was getting closer and closer, and he could no longer find a place to hide. He walked out of the hiding cover and leaned half-squatted against the part of the wall covered with shadows and walked towards the direction of the sound coming.

The sky is red like blood, and the ground is covered with darkness. All light sources are eliminated, and only the vortex clouds illuminated by blood lightning. The buildings arranged on the ground are like tombstones. They have lost their former role and are now silent as if they are cemeteries.

"Be careful."

The advice from colleagues came from the machine, which calmed the middle-aged security officer's mood: "It is said that the clouds in the sky are emitting abnormal magic power, and it is those things that interfere with the normal operation of the magicians, which makes us unable to send envoys to help you now."

The "eyes" sent by the spells to monitor were knocked out by the enemy, not only causing the demon to lose control, but also the magic power of the spell to control it. Although the connection between the various strongholds has not yet been disconnected, their reconnaissance range has been compressed to the limit.

In this case, the defenders had to send several teams carrying light equipment to the surrounding area for alert. This is why the guards and his companions were separated by the enemy in the city and fell into a dilemma where they could be attacked at any time. Although it is not clear what the situation of the others is, most of the city where the guards are located is covered by black shadows and the road ahead cannot be seen.

Tick, Tick, he felt that the sound that could be captured by his ears became clearer and clearer. The sound that seemed to be dripping water was approaching. The tactical light in the guard's hand flashed for a while and suddenly went out. The aperture that was still enlarging suddenly disappeared, and his eyes, which had not yet adapted to the changes in the light, suddenly fell into the darkness.

It's going to be bad!

The guard officer was shocked and immediately jumped to the rear, pointing the sound with the mechanic gun in the direction of the sound. But at this moment, another different sound came, and the sound came from the darkness behind him. Although it was not very clear, the obvious vibration was more direct than the previous faint sound of water droplets.

He was trapped, and the guard soon realized from his surprise. He understood what the sound was - the sound of footsteps. The sole of the leather boots was stomped on a layer of buffer material. Someone used some method to create the sound of water drops before, which might be spells or instruments. Then he tiptoed to his back from the other side of the road, preparing to launch an attack.

"Who is it!"

He yelled and turned around, and turned the mechanic gun that had been loaded with magic bullets behind him, which became his last sentence before his death.

A "creature" hidden in the dark suddenly rushed out and grabbed the guard officer tightly with his claws as big as a door panel. The huge force made his bones creak——————————————————— as if he was about to crush him to pieces on the spot.

But the monster seemed unwilling to give him a pleasure. Before the guard could react, it was lifted up high by it and then threw it onto the rubble-covered ground. The huge force caused him to break several bones in an instant, causing him to almost faint.

If he fainted like this, it might be a little better. At least he would not have to withstand the continued torture. However, the monster constructed from darkness saw the dying security officer, opened his mouth and started eating bit by bit.

The flesh and blood were torn off effortlessly by sharp knife-like teeth, and in the bloody mouth, the solid bones were easily crushed like a shortcake. Before being completely killed by the monster, he still maintained a little sober rationality, but he could only watch as he was swallowed by the monster.

"Hey! Hey! What's wrong with you?" The police officer who found something wrong in the communicator shouted loudly, but the only response to him was the ambiguous voice of tearing things with the beast. "Damn it! Hey - what's wrong with you? Respond quickly! The reinforcements have rushed over now, hold on!"

With his hoarse shouting, the sound of a crowd rushing to the road came from afar. The guards sent from the headquarters had already arrived nearby. The monster seemed to have noticed the crowd approaching and quietly escaped into the darkness, leaving only a corpse that was eaten unbearable.

So it won't take long to add a "53-year-old security officer who belongs to the security team to be killed by a monster" to the record in Katris City.

——Maybe, this should have been the case. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster! u
