{cw: cannibalism}
Ning Zhous talking eagle circled far ahead and then returned to its master.
Theres movent ahead, Ning Zhou relayed after being told by the eagle.
In the darkness, only so buildings could be seen vaguely ahead. The rich black blinded their vision, and they couldnt help but feel fear because of the darkness and the unknown.
Ning Zhou looked forward, and on the other side of the street several figures were staggering. Although his night vision was good, he still couldnt see clearly. The eagle on his shoulder flapped its wings again and flew there in the dark.
Its demons, Ning Zhou said coldly.
Sure enough, as in Nightmare Ga, demons began to appear in the Holy City after the night of the new moon began. At that ti, Qi Leren had been attacked by these demons and died, but this ti he wouldnt repeat the sa mistakes.
Dont worry, they wont find us, Su He said, and walked on.
This group of solitary demons walked in the dark streets, wobbling, and seed to have no mind or thoughts. Qi Leren observed them closely. Although the darkness made him unable to see their appearance clearly, he could see that they were walking slowly like zombies.
As a group of people walked into the market area of the Holy City, the number of these demons increased. They had no organization or discipline, but they followed strange instructions and wandered here Waiting
Are the Holy Citys residents ok? Will these demons attack humans? Dr. Lu asked nervously.
There are no humans, Su Hes voice sounded in the dark. Now, there are only demons left in this Holy City.
A chill climbed from his foot to the back of his neck, and Qi Leren couldnt help but feel disturbed. Although he knew that the Holy City would be full of demons after zero, he didnt expect that these demons were the residents living here?
Why is this? Do the residents here know that theyll beco demons? And then, if you dont sleep Qi Leren rembered the previous residents who disappeared on the night of the new moon, and a more terrible guess welled up in his mind.
Once you fall asleep on the night of the new moon, you will be transford into a demon after zero. If you stay awake, then Su He paused and said slowly, Youll beco the demons prey.
As if to confirm Su Hes conjecture, there ca the sound of a door in the street ahead. The door of the roadside house opened and a young man scread as he rushed out: No, demons! Dont co near !
Behind him, two strange demons staggered after him.
As he escaped from the house, the demons wandering aimlessly in the street were awakened. This group of irrational monsters roared excitedly and chased him in the direction of the four people. The young man ran away crying. In the dark, he tripped, got up, and continued to run, but the greedy predators behind him were getting closer and closer, about to catch him in the next second
Qi Leren felt the hand on his wrist loosen, and when he turned to look, Ning Zhou had already rushed out.
Dont kill them! Theyre living people! Qi Leren shouted.
Ning Zhou didnt kill them. He hurriedly took the young person whod fled, kicked away the demons who had pounced on him, carried the adult man in one hand, and grabbed the roof of the nearby house with one hand to pull them both up. More demons were alerted and they rushed towards him crazily
There was a short lody in the dark, but it wasnt beautiful. Instead it made one anxious, but in this strange lody, the originally crazy demons cald down. They stood there blankly, and after standing still for a while, they continued to wander in twos and threes, turning a blind eye to the two living people.
The sound of this lody was too strange. Could it be the little blonde girl? Qi Leren stared in the direction of the sound, where it was imrsed in pure darkness, and vaguely saw several figures coming towards them.
Three people in cloaks ca to Ning Zhou, one of whom was still playing a flute. The front man looked up at the two people on the roof and said in a hoarse and erratic voice, Foreigner, please give him to us.
The frightened young man knelt on the roof, shivering, and shouted with a broken voice: No, no, no, dont hand over I want to go ho, I want to sleep
We will send you ho, you will sleep safely until dawn, and then you will forget this matter. Co on, well send you ho, the cloaked man said.
Who are you? Ning Zhou asked. He was wary about these three people wearing cloaks because he felt that these people also had strong demon energy.
Qi Leren beca nervous and took a step forward only to be dragged back by Su He: Wait, lets see what this group wants to do first.
The cloaked n were silent for a mont, and two of them talked in a low voice. Finally, they said, You can call us the night watch.
Demons? Ning Zhou coldly asked.
The demon under the cloak smiled bitterly, took off his hood, and showed a ferocious mutated face: Yes, but we are lucid demons.
The young man saved by Ning Zhou shook even harder, his teeth rattled in the shaking. He seed likely to faint at any mont.
On this night of the new moon, all those who fall asleep will beco demons, while those who are awake will beco the targets of demons. Although were standing here now, we can walk and talk, but in fact we are also sleeping. It can be said that were sleepwalking. On every night of the new moon, we look for the living who havent fallen asleep while we sleepwalk and save them before the demons eat them. We let them forget all this, and then sleep peacefully. Foreigner, promise to keep this a secret like we do, the cloaked man said huskily.
Why dont you tell people? Arent you letting this kind of thing continue? Ning Zhou asked.
Within the faint flute music, a ferocious yet sad smile appeared on the night watchmans mutated face.
The cris committed by people in ignorance can be forgiven by God. Every night of the new moon, these people who fall asleep take off their clothes in their dreams, beco cannibals, hunt their own kind everywhere, then clean up all traces before dawn, put on the cloak of human beings again, and wake up safely This night has passed for eight years without incident. If one day, this hypocritical peace is broken and innocent people know that they were eating people, then the city will really be finished. They Us, anyone will fall into hell and will no longer be redeed.
Eating people Once again, Qi Leren rembered the young man who recorded all this in his notebook. Did he end up being eaten by demons? Thinking again about the knock on the door he had heard that last ti the people who appeared in his ho that night were probably only his relatives who had already fallen asleep.
Qi Leren felt a tumult in his stomach, as if it were burning. He covered his stomach and tried not to imagine the bloody and cruel picture.
The young man saved by Ning Zhou let out a cry of despair and threw up on the roof. On every night before this night, he slept like the bloody demons and greedily attacked the living. He couldnt help thinking of one day many years ago, when hed spent the night of the new moon safely in his dream, he woke up feeling happy and satisfied physically and ntally, as if he had had a beautiful dream. On that day, the old woman next door whod watched him grow up had disappeared in the disaster of the new moon
That kind smile reappeared on the demonic face of the night watchn: Look. Knowing that youve eaten people is far more terrible than the eating of people itself.
