A pair of frightened eyes, through the crack in the floor, looked at a strong demon soldier above his head, rummaging through the cupboard.

Soon, the demon soldier dropped a few rag skirts and left the dilapidated room with his sword.

At this time, under those frightened eyes, the shriveled hand covering the mouth finally moved away.

"Don't bark! No matter how scared you are, don't scream! Child! The mother looked at the little girl whose face was full of stains, lowered her voice, and admonished.

If it weren't for the faint voice, perhaps the little girl would have had to tell what her mother was saying to herself by recognizing her mouth.

The little girl nodded vigorously, for she had seen with her own eyes that several monsters with three heads had torn a soldier in armor to shreds.

She and her mother were hiding in the cellar, and on the other side of the wall, there were several civilians who were also hiding in the cellar.

Two soldiers also hid in, and the two swords in their hands were one of the few weapons in the cellar.

Several men also hid in, but they were all empty-handed, and they didn't bring anything with them because of the urgency of the situation.

This cellar was originally used to secretly store grain, and several poor people in the vicinity secretly dug it out together and used it together.

So apart from the seven or eight people who had come in hiding, all that was left was a little ration in some coarse cloth pockets.

Obviously, there is no way to make a fire for cooking, and there is no way for these rations to become real food.

Now, all those hiding in this hidden cellar can only pray, pray that those foreign armies like demons will leave here as soon as possible.

Once these people flocked to the castle where the emperor was located, or retreated to camp outside the city, they had the opportunity to come out of the cellar, find some supplies to make some preparations, and then return to the cellar for refuge.

Only then will they be able to hold on to this place longer, until the monsters are completely gone, and they can rebuild their home.

"Are they gone?" A soldier was nervous, moving his body cautiously, for fear of making a sound. He moved to the edge of the small gap that he had used to observe the outside, and asked in a low voice.

The shriveled woman pressed a finger to her mouth, motioned for her to shut up, and shook her head slightly.

She didn't dare to take the risk, because just now she clearly heard someone being caught in the distance, and the screams were getting farther and farther away, obviously being rudely dragged away.

If they still want to save their lives, they must be more cautious and more cautious, and be more cautious.

The soldier holding the long sword in his hand nodded slightly, he had killed a demon dog in a street battle before, but in order to kill this monster, more than a dozen soldiers of their squad, including their captain, were killed.

He and his companions broke into the house, and the civilians in the cellar opened the secret door and let them in.

After that, they could only hear some movement outside, and for them, these movements made them creepy, and they didn't even have the courage to go out and take a look.

"I don't know if it's safe over there...... If the attack is withstood by that side, we will wait until the night to escape, and maybe there will be hope of survival...... "A civilian man is still very assertive, he is far away from the gap, and he speaks in a low voice, and he should not be heard outside.

What's more, as time goes by, the demon warrior who entered the house just now to search should have gone away, so they should not be noticed if they are talking quietly now.

The other soldier nodded slightly, agreeing with him, "That's right, but the outer walls are falling too fast, and I don't know what the castle is ...... Can it be supported. ”

Hearing their conversation, the two women in the cellar hugged their children tightly, their faces full of unease and anxiety.

The fall of a city, for men, may only have two endings: death or immortality. But for women, there are too many more terrible things.

It's not that they haven't heard of it, whether it's the Tempest Empire, the Long River Empire, or the Rock Empire, after their army breaks through the city, they will always plunder, commit adultery and plunder, and they will definitely do it.

Of course, the Flame Empire is not much better, and their army will unceremoniously vent their savage side on the defeated enemy.

Anyway, war is the carnival of the winning side, and the losing side endures everything. This is an eternal truth, and it is also the sorrow of women.

In the dark cellar, there was not much light, and the only light shone through the cracks in some wood, so that people could barely see where everyone was.

There is an oil lamp in the corner, but who would dare to light it at this time? If someone finds out, it's not a simple matter without light.

"Squeak ......" There was a sound above his head, and everyone in the cellar subconsciously shrank their necks. Something else came over them, which made them immediately close their mouths and deliberately lower the sound of their breathing.

They let out their breath slowly, for fear of alarming something above their heads. They could hear heavy footsteps, and they could hear the sound of the floor twisting.

They could even clearly hear the stiff sound of sharp claws cutting across the wooden floor, a sound that made the hairs on their arms stand on end.

The little girl's mother once again covered her girl's mouth with her shriveled palm. She was afraid that her children would not be able to bear the fear and make even the slightest noise and bury them all.

So she covered her daughter's mouth very hard, and a pair of eyes slowly lifted to look at the gap above her head.

She could see a large body, covering the gap from time to time, and quickly leaving, seemingly circling around the room, searching every corner.

Everyone waited motionlessly, waiting for the voice to go away. But the voice did not leave, but became more and more restless.

Suddenly, the woman covering her daughter's mouth felt her daughter's facial strength increase dramatically, and she seemed to want to break free of the palm covering her mouth, as if she was about to let out a violent scream.

The woman looked up again, and through the small gap, she and her daughter could see, a red eye, lying on the other side of the gap, staring at the two of them.
