Chapter 248: Lost in the Town

As the lights illuminated the city, the glazed dusk faded into the night. As Mu Hua and the other two drove back to Bear Pig Town, strange events seemed to have occurred in the town.

Bear Pig Town is located in a remote area. Although it is close to the eastern coast, it is located between mountains.

There are still large areas of forest near the town. Originally, neither the garrison nor the night hunters would have set their sights on this place.

The guard team, which functions as a police force, is the earliest law enforcement agency in the town.

The town, which used to lack traffic, has a relatively simple living atmosphere, and the residents of the town are also familiar with the members of the guard team.

On the highway outside the town, Toby, who was driving, had a flicker of anxiety in his eyes, and Belika, who was in the co-pilot, had a solemn face.

Even if they gave up flying and chose to speed on the highway, they should have returned to the town long ago, but they still seemed to be running around on the same road outside the town.

"Ms. Alex, can you tell me the specific situation you encountered?" Belica asked Alex, who was sitting in the back seat, thinking that it was just an ordinary police call, but encountered a strange situation.

Alex, a beautiful female attacker and a member of the Odysseus team, had met Mu Hua once in Webster's manor.

Alex was obviously very tired at this time, with a little uneasiness in her eyes. She held a pendant-sized bone carving in her hand. Because of the strong grip, her knuckles had lost some blood.

"I just arrived in this town today. I wanted to get familiar with the environment of the town, but I walked into the forest for no reason."

"Because I couldn't get out of the forest, I thought I met a lost demon, so I called the police, and then you all know what happened." Alex frowned and said.

"Lost demon? Could it be that the lost demon in the academy ran out to play a prank?" Toby slowed down and asked Belica.

"Academy? Spring Branch? You actually allow them to raise demons?" Alex questioned, Belica and Toby looked at each other, but didn't respond to Alex's words.

"When we found you, you were very close to the road, and the trees in the roadside woods were not dense. Did you see the airship or hear the sound of the car?" Belica asked Alex.

"No." Alex was very observant. He found that Belica and the others did not want to talk about topics related to the academy, so he stopped talking.

Demons, also known as demons, are creatures that occasionally roam in the human world. They have different forms and different IQs.

From human form to beast form, demons have many external forms. Most of them are not physically strong, almost the same as ordinary humans.

But because of their strange abilities, they are good at hiding, and their strengths and weaknesses are uncertain.

And they seem to be bred by men and male demons who have transformed into women. . .

Demons have a human side and a demonic side.

Usually they avoid humans because they have a strong sense of territory. Untamed demons are also very aggressive towards humans, and they are more taboo in the human world.

"It shouldn't be a lost demon. I've never heard of a lost demon interfering with a speeding car. What's the matter with your pendant?" Belica asked, glancing at Alex's palm.

"I bought this in town because I felt it had a strange magic. I thought it was something like a garden key."

"But after the strange things happened, I have thrown it away several times, but every time it would come back to me inexplicably." Alex said.

"Garden key? How could someone in town sell garden keys? Which store did you buy it from?" Belica asked questioningly.

"Not in the store, an adventurer who set up a stall on the street." Alex's face flashed with embarrassment, and he only answered the source of the dominoes.

Needless to say, I'm afraid Alex bought the dominoes with the mentality of picking up bargains.

"It seems that the problem lies with this domino, Toby, stop the car first." Belica said to Toby.

They have been driving on the road for a long time, and their perception of time is even a little hazy. At this time, it's like encountering a ghost wall and unable to get out of the lost path.

Familiar environment, endless cycle, tense psychology made several people very tired. If they don't find the root of the problem, they may encounter other dangers if they keep driving.

"I just fired a signal flare, but I didn't see the 'eye'." Toby stopped the police car, wiped the sweat from his palms, and said to Belika.

People in this world are familiar with demons, and demons can be said to be the source of all mysteries, so even if they encounter this situation, people may be afraid and panic, but they will not be at a loss after their cognition is overturned.

"Mu Hua's ravens generally do not leave the town. Now we are not sure where we are. How about the positioning device?" Belika asked Toby.

The so-called 'eyes' are Mu Hua's blind ravens. People in the town have become accustomed to their existence.

If there are some loud noises in the town, they will also attract their attention. Toby is from a small town. Compared with the new night hunters, he trusts his own people more. When he fell into a strange lost earlier, Toby had tried to attract the attention of blind ravens or townspeople.

Blind ravens will not leave the town, but Toby and Belica do not know that when Mu Hua is not in the town, these ravens will not appear in the town either.

Because they are summoned beasts, their independent range of action cannot be too far from Mu Hua.

"The positioning device still shows the outskirts of the town. There is no response from the security team. We have been moving within a range of ten kilometers south of the town."

"Miss Alex, can you destroy it?" Toby said to Belica, and then to Alex.

"You can call me Alex, or Bonnie. I have tried. Even if I smash it, it will appear near me after a while. We can't get rid of it." Alex said helplessly while holding the dominoes.

"Then I still don't recommend you to hold it in your hand." Belica was a little impatient. She seemed to be more resistant to Alex's "we" statement.

"What can I do? As soon as I throw it away, it's as if someone is whispering and calling me. I hate that feeling! Damn it! I shouldn't have come to this damn place in the first place!" Alex said irritably.

"Calm down, Alex, Belica, we all need to calm down." Seeing that the two women were getting angry, Toby hurriedly advised.

"If your legs weren't shaking, it would be quite convincing." Belica said to Toby unhappily.

Two women and one man, among the three, Toby seemed to be more afraid of the situation in front of him. He was just an ordinary person. Although he joined the guard team, he just wanted to find a job close to home.

"No matter what, we all need to calm down. We didn't leave the town too far. Recently, there are night hunters in the town. Damn, it seems that they are not as useful as the legend says." Toby raised his tone and said a little toughly.

Well, don't worry about whether you are afraid or not. Toby is still a young man after all.

A young man with two young and beautiful women, especially when in danger, usually wants to make himself look more manly. . .

Facing Toby's toughness, Belica raised her eyebrows, as if she wanted to teach her partner a lesson. At this time, Alex in the back seat suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Wait, look, there's someone!" Alex pointed out the car window.

"Witch." Belica frowned, and while speaking, she had already taken out the pistol she carried with her.

"Witch?" Alex was surprised.

"Yes, a wandering witch." Belica confirmed, and the three of them were a little more nervous than before.

In this strange environment, they met a wandering witch who seemed to have expected it and walked towards them. Obviously, her appearance made the three people's lack of security even more uneasy.
