When the gate of dusk finally closed, the night spread out an infinite net, swallowing up the last shred of light on the horizon.

Dark clouds rolled strangely in the lead-black sky, and faint lightning bared out the white teeth of the forest like jagged teeth.

Even Rowan didn't expect that when Faceless ran below the mountainside, there were signs of a rainstorm in the sky.

He closed his eyes tightly and didn't let Faceless come back, and if even the rain could make him relent, then he was destined to laugh that day.

The forest at night hides a deep and endless darkness, the craggy trees are entwined with enchanting vines, and the owl hiding in the darkest and darkest corners opens its dark eyes and quietly looks at the increasingly dead forest.

Suddenly, a black shadow flew through the thick branches, and the owl, pretending to be deep, was slapped by the claws of a black cat-like beast, and the comical cry of "mmmmmmmmmm

But the sky was still overcast, and the air was still dreary.

Before the rainstorm fell, Faceless finally ran down the hill.

It crouched on the tree, clutching a thick branch, its dark eyes staring nervously at the village not far away.

From there, it faintly smelled an ominous scent.

......

"In the past, I first found a sheltered place to shelter from the rain. ”

Rowan observed the world in front of him through the golden pupil mark.

There was not a single glimmer of light in the dark mountain village, and the imaginary children and women of the farmers did not appear, and the atmosphere was somewhat depressing.

Faceless jumped from under the tree, used all fours, landed steadily, then straightened up, started to accelerate, and flew out violently!

Since it has become sapient, it has become more and more reluctant to use its forelimbs to assist in running, although it is not human, it has a heart that yearns for humans.

The wind blew past my ears, and the scenery changed very quickly, and the faceless ran faster and faster.

Rowan was engrossed in his second vision, taking in his surroundings one by one.

Darkness does not hinder the snooping of the golden pupil.

The closer you get, the clearer you can see.

It was a small village, and the border outside the village was separated by stones and fences, and there was not even a village gate.

On the mountain road, five or six meters from the village, there is a rotten wooden sign engraved with the word "leaving the village".

Faceless passed under the cards and rushed into the mountain village in three or two clicks!

It was also at this moment that the heavens and the earth suddenly changed!

"Whew!"

The faceless fur stood up sharply, and the claws of its lower limbs stomped the ground, and the sharp nails scratched the dirt.

It held its breath and stopped at the edge of the village, nervously observing its surroundings.

It's dark around, even darker than outside the mountain village.

A slightly gray mist drifted through the village, like a disembodied ghost.

Faceless wrinkled its nose, it smelled blood from the mist.

"Calm down, go back!"

Rowan gave it instructions through the golden pupils.

It found support in its heart, and immediately calmed down, and then slowly retreated back according to Rowan's instructions.

But its back touched the cold wall, and it was blocked!

The remnants of its beastly nature caused it to swing its claws before thinking, but the wall didn't move, and its claws felt pain instead.

There is an invisible wall that separates the village from it, and only allows you to enter and not to leave?

Rowan felt its thoughts, understood the situation, and his brain was running at high speed, thinking quickly.

He hadn't encountered this situation, but he had seen it in many horror novels.

What to do?

Before the crossing, Rowan was just an ordinary person.

If he encounters this situation on the street of a modern city, he will panic, he will be chaotic, and he will run around aimlessly.

But he doesn't now.

It's not because he's become a saint who can't even understand himself, or because he's suddenly changed.

Sadly, it was only because his real body was not in the village, but far away on the cliff, so he could think calmly.

But...... That's the advantage!

There's no reason to give up that advantage because of that.

Rowan said to Faceless:

"Lift your head up a little and look at the sky. ”

Faceless looked up.

There was also fog drifting above the village, but it was thin.

The night sky was not obscured, it was just darker.

The tiny lightning like the white teeth of a ferocious beast has become thick, and the rain is about to fall!

Rowan knew that there were ghosts in this world, and those ghosts were all ...... by him The king of the dead country was released from the gates of hell!

"Any idea what's going on?"

Rowan asked about the system, but didn't get an answer.

This is not surprising.

Rowan already knew that the system would only explain some basic things.

For example, if Rowan sees a ghost now and asks about it, it will most likely tell him what the ghost is!

Anyway, it can be used as an encyclopedia.

But that's enough.

Rowan said to Faceless: "Don't be afraid, go inside, don't make a sound, and hide from the shadows." ”

Faceless has a thick pad of flesh under its paws, and if it wants to, it can move silently like a cat.

With Rowan's encouragement, it mustered its courage and quietly infiltrated the village.

You can't escape, either you hide or take the initiative.

Rowan chose to take the initiative, but there are also many ways to attack, from the front, from the side...... And what Faceless is doing right now, from the dark side!

Rowan put down the dagger in his hand, tugged at the peeled dead branch tightly, and looked intently at the faceless surroundings.

There is not much mist that forms in the clumps, and it drifts very slowly.

As long as you are agile, you can easily dodge.

Apparently, Faceless had that skill, and without touching a single bit of mist, it quickly leaned under the edge of the wall, and then quietly explored it while using its ears, nose, and eyes to probe its surroundings.

From the initial restraint to the later smooth and calm, it gradually has a little cat elegance.

It's hard to imagine that four or five days ago it was a ferocious beast.

The walls of the village are all of the same kind of earthen walls, and they are very broken and rotten, some of them are loose, and some of them are simply half-collapsed.

Faceless sneaked along the wall for a while, but didn't notice anything strange other than fog, whether it was sound or something that moved, nothing!

But there was no movement, but it was weird.

Rowan had seen from his faceless memories that there were people in this village, and there were quite a few of them, and it didn't make sense that they would all disappear in just a few days!

"Stop. Rowan pondered for a moment and instructed, "Go inside the house and be careful." ”

Faceless paused, and in front of it was the door of an earthen house.

The door was open and cracked, and it was dark inside, and I couldn't hear it even if I put my ears against the wall.

"Is there anyone in here?"

Faceless stretched out his front paws and pressed the meat pad against the door, widening the gap in the door a little bit, and continued to look inside.

No one, no one in sight.

But there is still room in the house.

"Shw!"

The black shadow flashed, and the faceless had already penetrated through the narrow crack in the door!
