A desperate wish for peace echoed back into Shiao Yi's mind.
Without hesitation, Shiao Yi reached to his waist holster, pulled out his needle gun, and shot the man right between the eyes.
Immediately afterward, a chill ran down his spine.
From beyond the wall of fire, something dark began to emerge, as if oozing into existence.
One creature. Then another appeared behind it.
They had noticed him. Now, they were coming toward him as their target.
As the dark shapes stepped out of the ring of firelight, Shiao Yi could finally see what they were. It was the Doshaguma.
With the starry sky and bright moon behind them, their forms became clearer in the open space. Looking at them now, Shiao Yi was struck again by how massive they were.
At first, he thought they were the size of hippos, but they were even bigger. About the size of a small elephant. If those things started rampaging, it would be a complete disaster.
And now they were running straight at him.
