Mu Jinyu led the ten or so Star Lords, riding in a carriage toward the small village in the outskirts of the city, where the Ghost-Faced Demons wreaked havoc.
On the road, he saw many people in despair, looting or fighting each other, venting their anger and fear.
Then suddenly, someone would transform into a demon, causing the crowd to scatter, but still, many died at the hands of the demons.
In the end, it was the military that stepped in, decisively executing those who had transformed into demon minions.
They were not true demons and could be killed, not requiring gold to suppress, so the demon minions currently spawned by the panic were generally executed on the spot.
The carriage continued to move, and Mu Jinyu noticed that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road; he guessed that most were hiding at home, cautiously guarding against their family members.
