Chapter 28 Storms Followed One after Another

The threat of the shadow snake was successfully dealt with.

This was a very satisfactory result for the obligated patrolmen, including the old man, Buck.

"Hahaha! Julian and Ethan are really good guys! They subdued that annoying big snake as soon as they came out!"

Buck also had a summoning book.

However, just like Hilary, his summoning beast was also killed by the invading monsters on the day when the city was enveloped in the forest.

"Of course! Ethan is very powerful!"

Julian patted his chest complacently.

Behind them, a group of patrolmen was pointing at the coiled shadow snake.

To comfort the frightened patrolmen and to show his current strength, Julian summoned the shadow snake, letting others watch without any hesitation.

It had to be said that although Ethan frowned at this behavior, it was worth it from the other people's relieved expression.

"Are you Mr. Ethan Julian mentioned?"

What was supposed to come would always come.

By accident, Grover, who had obtained three diabolic bats, reported the whole process of killing the shadow snake to Levi.

When many patrolmen were watching the shadow snake, Levi came with Grover.

"I'm Ethan. Nice to meet you, Sheriff Levi. Long time no see!"

Ethan had met Levi once when his parents died in an accident.

However, he just sent the news of his parents' plane crash to Ethan.

"Ethan? Are you the child of the couple who died in the air crash?"

All of a sudden, Levi felt that Ethan looked familiar. After thinking for a while, he remembered the sensational news in this small city.

After all, there was also a part of the news that belonged to him. A role that could not be considered glorious.

"You've grown up! When I knew you quit the archery department and the national competition, you graduated and left this city."

Levi sighed as he looked at the bow hanging on Ethan's back.

If he hadn't been involved in cases, he might have been able to enlighten this promising young man.

However, now, it didn't seem bad.

Ethan might be the key to protecting the city.

"Sir, I'm flattered!"

Ethan shook his head and changed the topic.

"Sir, you must come here for the summoning beasts Mr. Grover got, right?"

After taking a look at Grover, Levi nodded.

The latter stepped forward, sorted out his thoughts, and said slowly.

"According to our preliminary test, the existence of the diabolic bat is the power we urgently need now."

"Is it to build a warning line?"

Levi understood what Ethan meant.

However, the reality did not allow him to separate people he can arrange.

"As far as we are concerned, a cordon is enough for us to do our best. The rest can only be tested after an effective cordon is established."

"If it's just diabolic bats, I'm sure of it. But I need to confirm it before I can make the decision."

It was good for Ethan to help Levi set up the cordon.

Anyway, Ethan had to live in this city.

Otherwise, would he run into the forest with Freya?

It was nice to camp in the forest.

But as a modern city resident, Ethan was more used to living in the city.

Seeing that Ethan didn't refuse, Levi and Grover breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Ethan!"

"No. Don't be so serious. Just call my name!"

Ethan waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for him to call him sir so solemnly.

"Well, I'm sorry!"

Levi nodded his head and then looked a little serious.

"Ethan, there is one more thing that needs your help. No, to be exact, I need the help of your..."

Levi's eyes fell on the beautiful figure not far away, who was always paying attention to Ethan.

From the experience who had experienced many things, Levi could almost be sure that Ethan had an intimate relationship with that beautiful figure.

"We need your friend's help, Ethan."

Although Levi had sharp eyes, he didn't point out the relationship between Ethan and Freya.

"The assistance of Freya?"

Ethan was stunned and then understood.

It seemed that Levi had seen through Freyas identity. But he didn't point it out.

It was because of Ethan's relationship that he requested a friendly point of view.

"Freya, can you come here?"

Therefore, with the help of Ethan, this was the first time that the modern city from the human society had communicated with the creature from another world.

This conversation was not as good as they thought.

Instead, it smelled horrible and bloody.

Under the lead of Levi, Ethan and Freya arrived at a community in the north of the city, which was backed by mountains.

As soon as he entered the community, Ethan sensed that something was wrong.

Depressed.

Panic

Silent.

It was the feeling of this community.

The atmosphere here was more like a city suffering from the invasion of monsters and the fear of living.

"Did goblins invade here?"

Ethan saw the footprints of goblins in the alley behind a house.

"Yes, there were several intrusions. But they were soon chased away by the men in this community."

Levi said, pointing at a house not far away, after passing an intersection with Ethan and Freya.

"That's where we need the assistance of Ethan and Miss Freya to investigate today. There is a shocking murder case here. It should have happened last night."

"A murder case?"

Ethan and Freya looked at each other.

The two of them didn't think it was as simple as a murder case.

It must have something to do with some strange things.

Under the hood, Freya felt that people were looking at her.

It was not an open and honest sight.

Instead, they looked furtively in extreme fear and uneasiness.

"Are the people here scared by something?"

Freya's long and pointed ears trembled slightly under her hood, trying to capture the sound from around.

But what she heard was the fear of the adults and the cries of the children.

"Ethan, we have to be careful! I'm afraid..."

Freya pulled Ethan's collar secretly.

"Is... Is she?"

Ethan sensed the nervousness in Freya.

The only dark elf could make Freya so nervous!

"I don't know, but it's very likely."

Freya didn't notice any traces of Audrey.

But intuitively, she felt that these abnormalities might have something to do with Audrey.

"Here we are!"

When Ethan and Freya were talking about this strange atmosphere in secret, Levi, who was leading the way, stopped.

Ethan looked up subconsciously and found that it was a three-story duplex villa with a typical architectural layout.

"I seem to smell something uncomfortable."

Freya frowned.

If she hadn't seen the gate of the villa guarded by the subordinates of Levi, she would have picked up her bow the first time.

"Miss Freya, you are right. The thing in it is indeed uncomfortable and even disgusting!"

Levi waved his hand and asked his men to open the door. At the same time, he also pointed out the abnormality of the villa.

"The owner of this villa is a couple and their two children. When the forest enveloped the city, they also obtained the summoning beasts. And when they fled home, they successfully saved their summoning beasts."

"It sounds that the master of this house is a capable person."

Although he hadn't stepped into the gate, Ethan had noticed that there seemed to be several wooden targets lying in the corner of the courtyard.

Judging from the residual marks on the wooden target, it seemed to be the bullet marks left after using the shotgun.

"The man of this family is a little famous in this community. When he applied for the hunting license, I talked with him. He is a great man."

Knowing that Ethan had noticed the wooden targets, Levi casually told him something about the owner of the villa.

However, Ethan became more vigilant at the mention of it.

How could such a capable man's house be invaded without being noticed?

The moment the three stepped into the villa, the smell that made Freya feel uncomfortable suddenly intensified.

"Oh!"

Freya suddenly covered her chest and let out a muffled groan!

"Are you okay, Freya?"

Ethan moved his feet and almost at the same time appeared beside Freya to support her.

"No. I'm fine. I'm just not used to it."

Freya managed a smile, which made Ethan more worried.

"Well, Miss Freya, if you feel uncomfortable, you can wait outside."

Levi gave a dry cough and said apologetically.

"That's because I was thoughtless. I'm sorry!"

"No. It has nothing to do with you. Now I can confirm the reason why something is wrong here."

"What?"

Freya shook her head and pushed Ethan.

"Ethan, go over there and have a look. Is there a rune pattern behind the pillar?"

Freya pushed Ethan away and stepped back a little. After she steadied herself, she pointed at a pillar not far from the left.

Ethan looked at Freya worriedly and then walked towards it.

There was indeed a rune at the bottom of the pillar.

Besides, this symbol was the rune that Freya had drawn in front of Ethan.

However, there was no rune pattern at that time.

But at this moment, streaks of shining runes surrounded the pattern at this time!

It was the runic pattern representing evil.
