Lin Yue almost reacted instantaneously, he dropped to the ground and leaned against the roadside fence, lifting the steel repeating crossbow in his hand!
A fierce wind swept in, accompanied by the sound of wings flapping.
Bai snuggled close to Lin Yue, tilting his head as they both looked towards the sky.
A shadow flashed by in an instant!
However, the thin mist was scattered by the gust, then quickly merged again, while the sound of wings flapping moved in another direction.
The monster hadn't noticed them huddled together on the ground; it was more eager to feast on the prey under its talons, exuding a strong scent of blood!
After a while, the sound of wings flapping disappeared, and their surroundings fell into silence once more.
"Poof." Bai's calm sound signaled the crisis had passed.
Lin Yue breathed a sigh of relief, temporarily safe.
The mist became a natural barrier, and it seemed like the monster had more important tasks to attend to.
