stood on their horses, and Athir couldn't help frowning as he looked at the town that was clearly visible in the distance.
At this time, they were very close to the town, less than a hundred meters away, and they could see many things very clearly.
The town ahead seemed too neat and clean. In front of the town gate, not only was there no sense of disorder, but there was not even a speck of dust, as if someone cleaned the place regularly.
If this situation happened in those safe areas, it would be nothing special. However, in the dangerous areas that have already fallen, this situation seems a bit strange.
In this world, weirdness often represents danger.
Looking at the abnormal situation ahead, everyone's eyes, including Sidm and Lati, were focused on Athir, obviously waiting for his decision.
As time passed, the wind blew stronger and stronger, and raindrops kept falling around and spread all over the ground.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Standing on the spot, looking at the sky around him, Athir said calmly: "It's almost dark. On a rainy day like this, it's not easy to find a suitable place to hide from the rain."
"As for the town in front of us, just be careful."
He looked at the town ahead and reminded the people around him.
Naturally, Athir had no fear of the strange town in front of him.
The reason why he came out this time was to look for weird things in the surrounding forbidden areas. If there really was something weird in the town in front of him, he would just happen to run into it. He would be so happy that he would naturally not be afraid.
As the order was given, he slowly walked forward with his entourage.
"You can't go in!"
After a while, when they were still a few dozen meters away from the town gate, a voice suddenly sounded from the side.
"who?"
Hearing the sound, Sidru and Lati subconsciously put their hands on their swords and looked directly in the direction where the sound came from.
There, there were some ruins of buildings and a patch of dense grass, and the sound came from there.
There was a slight sound coming from the dense grass, and under the vigilant gaze of everyone, a figure walked out from there.
It was a girl with blonde hair and wearing a ragged linen robe. She looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, with many bruises on her body.
Her face was wooden, and her eyes did not have the agility that one would expect from a person of her age. Instead, she looked at everyone blankly, "You can't go in..."
"Why?"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Athir appeared calm and asked back.
But secretly, he frowned.
He felt a strange breath inside the girl's body, which gave him a strange feeling.
However, the girl's body aura was very faint. If she hadn't been standing in front of him at that moment, Athir would not have noticed it at all.
"There are scary things in this town... If you go there, you will die..."
Standing there, the girl looked at Athir woodenly and spoke numbly.
If you look closely, you can vaguely see some private parts of the girl through her torn clothes, which are faintly visible under the cover of the tattered clothes, carrying a unique temptation.
Beside Athir, looking at the girl's appearance, Sidm's face had turned slightly red. He lowered his head and secretly looked at the girl, looking a little embarrassed.
But in front of him, the girl's expression did not change at all, and she seemed to not care about everyone's gaze.
"It's almost dark. If we don't go inside to avoid the rain, I'm afraid the danger outside won't be any better."
Looking at the blonde girl in front of him, Athir showed a gentle smile on his face: "You live in this town?
Standing in front of Athir, listening to Athir's words, the girl did not reply, but just nodded woodenly.
"Leti, get her a dress."
Looking at the girl's appearance, Atier frowned secretly and turned to Lati and gave instructions.
Listening to Athir's words, Lati nodded, took out a red robe from the luggage behind her, then walked to the girl and put it on her.
After doing all this, the girl glanced at Lati lightly, without saying thank you, and turned and walked towards the direction of the town.
Behind her, looking at her appearance, Xidem and others beside Athir were somewhat displeased.
"Follow me." At this time, Athir's faint voice sounded around.
They slowly followed the girl and walked towards the town gate.
After a while, they walked into the town.
The moment he walked into the town gate, through his powerful mental power, Athir keenly sensed the strong negative energy particles around him, with a very faint and strange smell.
"A high-energy radiation reaction was detected ahead..." The voice of the chip machinery also rose in my mind.
Listening to the prompt from the chip in his mind, Athir's expression did not change at all. He just glanced around casually, and then followed the blonde girl in front of him and walked forward.
Walking into the town, the surrounding scenes began to become clear.
It seems very quiet here, and the surrounding roads and buildings are very intact. There is no sign of disorder, as if people walk around here frequently.
Although the surroundings were dead silent, there were no traces of blood or mutated monsters, which seemed a bit abnormal.
Before they had walked far, several figures suddenly appeared in front of them.
He was an old man who looked to be around seventy or eighty years old. He was wearing a worn black linen robe, his hair had turned white, and he had a kind smile on his face.
Beside him, there were two middle-aged men with indifferent faces and a young blonde woman who looked to be in her early thirties, following behind the old man step by step.
After seeing Athir and his group, as well as the blonde girl in front of him, the old man walked up to them with some surprise: "Bonnie, you're back!!"
He quickly walked to the front and hugged the blonde girl in front of him, saying with concern: "Where have you been? Grandpa is leading people to look for you everywhere."
Being hugged by the old man in front of her, the girl's body was shaking slightly, but it was not obvious.
She did not respond to the old man's words, but just stood there blankly, with the numbness on her face becoming more and more obvious.
"How many adults are there?"
At this moment, the old man noticed Athir and others in front of him. He could not help but take a few steps back with the girl in his arms, and a look of vigilance appeared on his face.
"We are travelers passing through. It's getting late now, so we plan to stay overnight in this town. Is there anything wrong?"
Looking at the old man in front of him, a meaningful smile appeared on Athir's face.
"That... is no problem at all."
Standing there, listening to Athir's words, the old man showed a hint of hesitation on his face: "This town is very big. If you just want to find a place to spend the night and avoid the rain, just find an empty house."
"Master Blue...don't say that."
At this time, a blonde young woman in her early thirties also spoke up: "Since you adults have come to our town, why don't you come to our place."
"We can prepare some hot water for the adults so they can wash up."
As soon as she said this, the people in front of her, including Xidem, felt a little moved.
After trekking in the wild for more than half a month, the conditions were naturally not very good. In addition, it rained a little, so if there was hot water and warm food at this time, it would definitely be a pleasure.
However, despite this, they were still wary of this place.
In a dangerous area where strange things are rampant, there is such a family living in a small town. It doesn't seem normal no matter how you look at it.
Thinking of this, they couldn't help but turn their eyes to Athir in front of them, obviously waiting for his decision.
Being watched by many eyes behind him, Athir raised his head slightly to look at the sky, and finally nodded reluctantly with a smile on his face: "Then thank you for your help."
"It's okay. It's rare for us to have guests here."
Standing in front, holding Bonnie in his arms, Blue showed a kind smile on his face: "Please follow us."
After saying this, he turned around and walked forward with the people around him.
Behind them, looking at the old man's back, Athir frowned slightly, and then walked forward together.
After a while, they reached the center of the town.
There were some tall buildings around, which looked quite new. Some figures gradually appeared everywhere, and they were all a little surprised when they saw Athir and his party.
"Another outsider is coming." A faint voice continued to sound from the side.
Riding his horse on the road and looking around casually, Athir's expression did not change at all, but his heart could not help but skip a beat.
After arriving here, the concentration of negative energy particles in the surroundings suddenly increased, and the strange aura became more and more intense, with a faint ominous meaning.
This is very abnormal.
The negative energy particles here are so dense that living here for a long time will definitely have a certain impact on the human body. Not only will it make people weak, but it may even cause sudden death.
However, there are a large number of ordinary people living around this area, and none of them seem to be corroded by negative energy, which is obviously extremely abnormal.
Athir also sensed a strange aura from these people, which was deeply rooted in the body of everyone here and was well concealed.
Among them, the old man named Kuru has the strongest aura, which is far from being as simple as it seems.
Looking at the residents around him who looked no different from ordinary people, a faint green light flashed before Athir's eyes, with a large amount of data streams constantly emerging in them.
"Name: Kuru. Strength: 2.1. Agility: 1.7. Constitution: 2.2."
In an instant, the opponent's physical fitness appeared in front of Athir.
This physical fitness is extremely terrifying, comparable to some senior knight apprentices, and it is no problem for him to deal with several elite warriors.
Among those present, apart from Athir, only Sidm and Lati could possibly deal with the opponent. Even if the rest of the guards attacked together, they might not be able to take him down.
Ahhh, there will be no second update tonight, I owe you +1
