In Eve's not-so-short life, she felt that her life was going smoothly. As the daughter of a duke, she could have whatever she wanted, and no matter what her wish was, it would be fulfilled.
Such a life is enviable, just like a beautiful fairy tale in a storybook. But at some moment in the past, this story seemed to have a new author. The beautiful fairy tale was covered by the stench of blood and rushed in a direction that could not be shown to children at all.
Eve still remembers that day clearly, the day when her life took a 180-degree turn.
The prosperity and magnificence are gone, replaced by blood and corpses. Monsters called demons have walked out of the dusty shadows and laughed greedily at the world.
That’s too bad…
Eve was muttering to herself. At this moment, she was hiding in the damp corridor. She raised her head slightly and observed the rain and fog outside through the gap in the window sill.
More than ten minutes ago, Eve also received the news that the war had begun. She was originally planning to look for Shao Liangxi and Rhodes, but after receiving the news, Eve immediately changed her target and moved towards the nearest stronghold to participate in the action.
It was learned from the communication that the one guarding nearby was Gawain, one of the Knight Commanders. After they established the defense line, they began to evacuate the citizens outside the defense line, trying to save more citizens before the disaster broke out.
Eve also participated in the escort on the way to the base, but unexpectedly, the demon tide came faster than they thought.
Everything happened so suddenly.
Eve slowed down her breathing and tried her best not to make any unnecessary noise.
The encounter ended in a tragic victory, with Eve assisting the rioters and briefly holding off the demons, giving the others time to evacuate the citizens.
The resistance did not last long. More and more demons emerged and engulfed the rioters. Eve had no ability to stop them. She could only hide here during the crisis and avoid death.
But safety is only temporary. The intensity of the erosion will only increase, and there will be more demons wandering the streets. They will smell the breath of living people and attack Eve.
Holding the folding knife tightly in her hand, Eve turned to observe the outside. The heavy rain and fog interfered with her vision, resulting in limited observation.
Gradually some scarlet things appeared in the field of vision. It was the blood that permeated the stagnant water. Not far away, there were two broken rioters lying. They looked extremely miserable, with scratches all over their armor and their limbs roughly torn off. Looking inside through the gaps, one could see a bloody mess.
Around the riot suppressors, there were countless corpses of demons piled up. This place was like a slaughterhouse, with body parts and internal organs scattered all over the ground, both human and demon.
After the encounter, the demon tide did not stay for too long. They continued to advance towards the defense line and soon disappeared here, but Eve still did not dare to leave.
Eve is still able to fight against a few scattered monsters, but once she encounters a group of monsters, Eve can only run for her life. If she is unlucky and encounters a strengthened monster, she will most likely die here.
When the situation is still unclear, moving forward rashly would be tantamount to seeking death, not to mention that if Eve left here, she would not know where to go.
