The moment Gu Li saw the scene outside, her pupils contracted, and she quickly drew the curtains, shutting out the moonlight from the room.
Everyone stared at her in astonishment, their gazes falling on the curtains she was gripping tightly.
Anneville asked blankly, "What's going on outside?"
With a serious expression, Gu Li gazed at the enormous moon that had become deeply ingrained in her mind at first glance. She took a deep breath and said with a splitting headache, "The night of the full moon... so this is the night of the full moon."
She barely managed to reach out to block Anneville and Wang Li from stepping forward to check.
"No one is allowed to go see it. All our plans must be moved to daytime!"
Wang En, the captain of the first squad, stepped forward solemnly, his face filled with a resolute determination: "But we don't have much time left. Now that the night of the full moon has arrived, the mysterious church will surely have another move to make!"
"For the Federation, we are willing to execute the plan now!"
Gu Li's head was throbbing so badly it felt like it was going to explode. The heavy pollution almost crushed her, but at the crucial moment, a familiar force brought her back, and the sound of tearing clothes came from behind her.
In an instant, in the cramped room, a pair of large wings shimmering with silver light suddenly unfolded.
The tavern fell silent immediately. Someone reflexively gripped the handle of a gun, then restrained themselves and put it down.
Most people were stunned into standing still by the immense sense of oppression.
The Federation members were familiar with those wings covered in fine silver scales, but this was the first time they had felt such a sense of oppression from Gu Li, which was at least at the level of a missionary... no, at least at the level of a familiar.
Cold sweat beaded on Wang En's forehead, and the words in his mouth were like a block of ice, unable to be uttered any further.
Gu Li's sky-blue eyes gradually turned black from the edges of her pupils due to the rapidly increasing pollution. She frowned and said, "Once you get out, the moon will turn you into mindless monsters the moment you leave."
She almost turned into something else after just one glance, but luckily she was no longer human.
He Shiyi's pollution-causing effect was quite effective on her.
Gu Li listened intently to the screams that gradually rose outside the room, his eyes growing increasingly solemn: "Today is destined to be a day of chaos for Bellamy. You must conserve your energy and set off to rescue him the moment the sun rises."
"Then sabotage the mysterious church's plans!"
Wang Li was the most polluted person present, besides Gu Li. He was already unsteady on his feet, his pale, soft insect legs crawling haphazardly under his feet, and his arms could only be limply resting on the table.
Upon hearing this, he was the first to stand up and walk upstairs under everyone's gaze.
"In that case, I'll take a nap first."
Wang En's face turned extremely ugly when he saw the insect's tail grow even larger, but he had no choice but to lead the team to rest under Gu Li's orders.
Gu Li stood by the window, trying to retract her wings. After everyone left, she covered her mouth and yawned, her dark circles under her eyes particularly noticeable.
Before setting off, no one expected that the mission would be so dangerous that even sleep would be hard to find time.
Gu Li blinked her blurry eyes, and suddenly a figure appeared before her.
Anneville's face looked like she was about to cry, but she still forced a smile: "Miss Gu Li, thank you."
Gu Li's gaze fell thoughtfully on the exceptionally bright curtains, and she subconsciously replied, "This is what we should do."
Anneville twisted her hand in front of her, opened her mouth as if to say something, but ultimately closed her mouth, a hint of disappointment flashing deep in her eyes.
"I'm going to prepare breakfast for everyone tomorrow. I hope everything goes well for you tomorrow."
Gu Li turned around and suddenly said to her back, "Do you know why this house is the quietest right now?"
As the moonlight fell, Bellamy's was engulfed in madness. Countless people unknowingly underwent transformations in their sleep, while others instantly reverted to their original forms.
Terrified screams were the dominant theme tonight.
But the neighborhood where the pub was located was unusually quiet.
Anneville paused, looking blankly at Gu Li, tears welling in her eyes: "Is it because of you?"
Gu Li felt somewhat helpless.
These two, father and daughter, are just like each other.
Hagrid had already taken the opportunity to escape with them when the presidential palace was in chaos yesterday, and they arrived at the roof of the tavern last night.
Even if he tried his best to hide it, the moment Gu Li saw the moon, his figure was already completely exposed in Gu Li's eyes.
He darted past on the street, his pleading gaze landing on Gu Li.
She reached out and touched the pendant at her waist, and a long sword appeared in her hand.
Gu Li: "He begged me not to tell you, but given how dangerous and presumptuous his actions were, I have to tell you anyway."
“Your father is right outside, holding off all the monsters that are trying to rush in.”
Anneville covered her lips, her eyes blurry with tears as she looked towards the window. She staggered a few steps and murmured, "Father?"
Gu Li raised her hand, and the heavy scabbard landed on her head.
“We are partners, and unilaterally terminating the agreement beforehand is not a good idea. I will go and check on things. You stay at home.”
On the quiet street, the old door of the tavern creaked open, standing out prominently in the bright night.
Emerging from the tavern was a petite girl with light blonde hair, clutching a silver longsword that seemed disproportionate to her size.
Her eyes were covered by a black hairband, yet she walked in one direction without hesitation.
But what is most striking is the pair of wings behind her that shimmered silver in the moonlight, fluttering gently with her steps.
