"And what about you?" Sun Muchen asked curiously, "You're considered one of the best among the younger generation. Although you're not skilled in combat, you're a talented individual with strong intellect. Didn't they invite you?"

"I can only say that they did mention it!" Lin Han said. "It's a pity, actually. I also wanted to go in, but the Holy City said I was still young and wanted me to study more, saying that I would be of great use to the Holy City in the future. That's why they haven't let me in yet."

“I see,” Sun Muchen nodded, closed his notebook, and said, “I’ll keep this list. I’ll start preparing for it in the next few days. As for the rest, we’ll talk about it later.”

"And what about me?" Lin Han pointed to himself and asked, "What should I do next?"

“You…” Sun Muchen thought for a moment and said, “Let’s wait and see for now. This is no small matter, and looking at this list, it involves far too many people. I’m afraid…”

"Waaah—"

Before Sun Muchen could finish speaking, a huge horn sounded from the direction of the Holy City. Along with the sound, more and more people in the village came out of their homes and looked towards the Holy City.

Sun Muchen frowned as she looked out. Her eyesight far surpassed that of the villagers. She saw the gates of the holy city open, and one after another, white-armored soldiers walked out. At the same time, chariots loaded with weapons also drove out.

"This...this is going to be bad?"

Sun Muchen thought to himself, then turned to look at Lin Han and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

Unexpectedly, Lin Han was speechless, stammering and unable to form coherent sentences, "No, it's terrible! It's a monster!"

"monster?"

"No, that's right!" Lin Han nodded vigorously and said, "The last time the monster appeared, it was this horn sound, that's it! It's the monster!"

"Monsters are attacking Hope Village!"
