They were laughing. Although no sound came from those cold and delicate faces, 042 could feel it when he looked into those empty eyes.
These ominous guests, angel-like beings, are laughing at themselves and at everyone who resists here.
"It's always like this. These guys are always so high and mighty, as if we are livestock kept in captivity by them."
The old man looked up at the angels, the burning light illuminating his face.
"But things are different now. Are you surprised too? You used to be hunters, but now you are hunted by the weak like us."
There were constant sharp screams. The demon hunters of Shangdafeng had already seen the appearance of the angels and hunted them down before they had fully built their bodies.
The blood-stained corpses kept falling, and the withered blood spread out like a majestic rain curtain, baptizing everyone from top to bottom.
042 watched all this in horror, and then moved his gaze with difficulty to the old man. The old man seemed to feel his gaze and gave 042 an ugly smile.
"They are those guys, right?"
The boy asked. In the face of the horrific erosion, he was not even as good as the casual old man in front of him. His body was shaking violently, and every nerve was wailing in pain.
"Yes, a kind of creature we don't know yet. But what is certain is that these creatures are related to the origin of demons. Moreover, most of the time, they exist in a ghost-like form, spying on everything in the world. This is why we have not discovered them, because they are invisible."
The old man patiently explained to 042, shaking the wine glass gently. As the angel died, its body crumbled into dust and the blood in the glass evaporated quickly.
It was as if an unknown force was exerting itself on these bodies, constantly erasing their existence.
"But the will of nothingness cannot interfere with our decision. They need an entity to act, but at the same time, they can be discovered and captured with an entity..."
He said meaningfully, with a somewhat crazy look but extremely clear eyes. The old man was clearer than ever before and remained absolutely rational.
But the more rational the old man was, the more uncontrollable fear 042 felt. It was not because of these sudden strange things, but because of the old man in front of him who was still smiling.
Although he failed to obtain power, he still had secret blood flowing in his body and his will had been beaten by the [Baptism of Divine Favor], which was enough to resist erosion. But even so, 042 still felt like a dead leaf in a storm, being torn by countless air currents and on the verge of collapse.
But even in such a doomsday, the old man as a mortal was still able to remain lucid and even smiled at 042.
"It has an angelic appearance, but is a hateful false god. I usually call it the Silent One."
The old man raised his index finger to his lips and spoke softly.
"Hush, keep quiet. Anyone who tries to wake up the hidden things will be killed by them."
There were wailing sounds, the sound of swords swinging, and in addition to the corpses of the fallen angels, there were also the bodies of the demon hunters. The preemptive surprise attack did suppress the angels, but as time went on, the cowardice of mortals was fully revealed.
