Fuyesi's support arrived at the scene shortly afterwards.
The team leader was Gao Yuanlin. When Gao Yunlin saw the bodies scattered all over the ground, he showed a hint of surprise on his face and immediately asked, "Did you kill all these people?"
Yun Li quickly explained, "Most of them were killed by Brother Zhou."
Gao Yuanlin glanced at Zhou Zhilu, who was silent beside him, in surprise. He had lost the initiative and was injured, yet he could still do this...
If this guy hadn't been there, perhaps the Fuyesi recruit camp would have been destroyed.
However, Gao Yuanlin immediately noticed the emotions of these people, and looking at the corpses on the ground, he roughly understood something.
"This is the final lesson for you, the new recruits. This world is full of dead, whether they are unarmed civilians or those of us wielding swords. This is a road of no return. Only by becoming strong can you control life and death. So, do your best to become stronger, and struggle to survive... I also hope you will remember those comrades who fell beside you."
After collecting the bodies of the Fuyesi people, the survivors gathered in the center of the village.
The mission had to continue. After resting for a while, people began to look for traces of the demon tribe in the village.
But after searching through several rooms, they didn't see even a shadow of a demon.
Gao Yuanlin's face turned dark when he saw this.
"Boom, boom."
Zhou Zhilu was searching aimlessly in a dilapidated wooden house when he was suddenly startled by the sound of a hollow drum under his feet.
He squatted down and knocked again.
"Knock, knock, knock."
The sound was different from that of other surfaces, and Zhou Zhilu confirmed that there must be space underneath.
After searching for a long time, I finally found a gap and pried it open with a knife.
A secret underground warehouse was exposed to Zhou Zhilu.
He jumped down carefully, and as the sound of landing was heard, several low growls sounded one after another.
The scene before him shocked Zhou Zhilu greatly. He saw dozens of iron cages crammed into the small space.
And in these iron cages, there are all kinds of monsters.
There is a tiger with only half a wing left, a listless monkey, and so on.
And without exception, their mouths were tied up, and they could only look at Zhou Zhilu who jumped down with terrified eyes, and finally let out a series of uneasy growls.
Zhou Zhilu continued to explore inside. As he went deeper, the monsters in the cage gradually began to take on some human form, which also meant that these monsters were of a higher class.
Perhaps to prevent these high-level monsters from escaping, their injuries were more serious than those on the periphery.
It was not until he reached the deepest part of the warehouse that Zhou Zhilu saw three even thicker iron cages, which were engraved with all kinds of strange patterns.
The three iron cages respectively held a strong man with a tiger head, a woman with three fox tails, and a girl with cat ears and a cat tail.
As if hearing Zhou Zhilu's footsteps, one of the scarred cat-eared girls weakly opened her eyes and whispered in a daze, "Save...save me."
Zhou Zhilu was startled and was about to ask something when he suddenly heard a voice asking questions from behind him.
"Brother Zhou, where is this?"
Zhou Zhilu looked back and found that it was Yun Li. He must have seen that he had not left the house for a long time, so he came in to look for him.
He nodded and said, "The demons hidden by the Xianling Sect should all be here. Let's go and notify Commander Gao to come over.
After finding the traces of the monster, Gao Yuanlin's expression finally became less ugly.
After all, if this trip yields nothing and they suffer an enemy ambush in vain, then Fu Ye Si would be truly disgraced.
After moving all the iron cages out of the warehouse, everyone began to escort them back to the city.
The bodies of the dead were also brought back to the city.
On the way, Zhou Zhilu couldn't help but ask, "Are all these demons being escorted to Fuyesi? Directly through the capital? That would probably cause panic."
Gao Yuanlin replied, "Don't worry. Fuyesi has a heavily guarded base on the outskirts of the capital. Most of the demons are taken there and dealt with before being sent to the capital."
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the back of the team.
Gao Yuanlin immediately ran backwards upon hearing the sound.
After a while, the commotion gradually subsided, and Zhou Zhilu also received news that a demon had escaped from the cage.
Zhou Zhilu couldn't help but think of the cat-eared girl in his mind. Could it be her?
…
After arriving in the capital, Zhou Zhilu returned home exhausted, fell powerlessly on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.
"Save me... Zhou Zhilu, save me! Why don't you save me!"
In his dream, the scene of Fang Xu's death once again appeared before Zhou Zhilu's eyes.
Zhou Zhilu suddenly woke up, touched the cold sweat on his forehead, and was silent for a long time.
Finally, Zhou Zhilu walked out of the house with a long knife in his right hand.
“Whoosh! Whoosh!”
The sound of long swords waving continued to ring out in the yard.
The moon was high in the sky. In the yard under the night sky, Zhou Zhilu changed his mindset and began to practice swordsmanship tirelessly.
"I don't understand why I came to this world, nor do I know why I possessed a treasure like the Book of the Realm. I originally thought I could ignore all of this, stay out of it, and live my life comfortably, but I discovered I was wrong.
"Every world has its own rules. The only rule in this world is that power is supreme. Whether you want to live freely in this world, protect those around you, or... resolve the anxiety caused by the red light behind the secret I traveled through, you need power!
