The moonlight was faint, and the fog grew denser, adding a touch of eerie atmosphere to the mountain forest. Logan and his group were already cautious, not wanting to stir up trouble on their way to the Demon Beast Mountain Range, but it seemed fate always enjoyed its jokes.
Suddenly, a disordered sound of footsteps came from not far away, with a group of people rapidly approaching their direction. Logan's heart tightened, and he whispered to his companions, "Everyone, be careful and keep quiet." The others nodded, watching the front with wary expressions.
But things didn't go as they wished. The group of over a hundred people headed straight towards them, their eyes revealing ill intentions. The leader, a tall and burly man with a playful smile on his face, strode up to Logan and his party and asked loudly, "Where are you all heading, hmm?" His voice was particularly jarring in the silent forest.
