Night came for them
Raindrops fell to the roof of their shelters. Everyone looked outside of their doors, but they heard Zhou Qing shouting.
"Everyone doesn't leave your houses!
This is another world and we can't be sure if the rain is safe! "
They immediately closed their doors and hid inside. He is right, it hasn't rained for weeks now and this world is different from theirs.
As the rain continues to hit hard, a soft growling could be heard outside.
Everyone trembled at the sound and quickly prepared their weapons.
Jiang Yin Yue wore her clam armor and her spear. Similarly, Song Nuan got his shield and club.
The soft growling continued until it stopped.
They waited for some hours before the rain finally stopped.
"Stay quiet, let's wait here until it's morning"
Zhou Qing whispered to them. Zhao Xiu and her team are also at the side, they just visited to join the feast they usually have at night.
No one managed to sleep.
Midnight
Soft growling occasionally appeared and also scratching sounds on the wall.
They are still highly alert, suddenly a loud sound of falling lag sounded not far from them. It is the sound of one of their traps for intruders being activated, but even so, no one dared to whisper.
Morning eventually came.
"Everyone, behind me"
Song Nuan exit the house with his shield in front of him and everyone follows him with their weapons.
Not far, there is also everyone coming out of their shelters with others carrying shields to protect everyone.
"Those are wolf tracks!"
Someone from the animal group pointed at the vague tracks on the wet soil.
People from the animal group feel surprised, they never saw anything big in the forest by the times they always search there.
"Wolves? Everyone, guard the food and water, we are going to investigate the traps."
Zhou Qing feel alarmed at the development of things.
He immediately ordered everyone to postpone their usual resource gathering and rather plan to defend the area and create traps and defense.
He then went to the traps with Jiang Wang Shue and Jiang Yin Yue together with some people
They soon arrived at the traps and the scene surprised them.
Hanging tied by the thick vine is a creature new to them.
"It doesn't look like a wolf at all"
Everyone gossip among themselves
The beast is still struggling on the vines. It is the size of a human with a muscular body, it is also quadruple and possesses 2 horns twisted like a drill, a long snout, and a long whip-like tail. Its Back has 6 long sharp spikes growing on it.
It growled at them, the same growl they heard last night.
They all backed down then they saw it about to sweep its claws.
"Let's return, we can't kill it right now"
Jiang Wang Shue suggested and they all agree.
They backed down and retreated, but they didn't leave their eyes on the beast, afraid that it will escape and pounce at them once they turn away.
