When it broke through the fog and reached the castle, everyone saw its appearance clearly.

The thing was five meters high, and its body was covered in silt, making it impossible to see its real appearance. Its thick feet stepped on the swamp, crushing the wild flowers blooming in the swamp.

As it moved, the mud on its body kept falling down.

Anthony quickly extinguished the still burning bonfire.

But he soon discovered that even when the campfire went out, there were other lights flickering.

Anthony looked at the shiny hole shoes on Yu Youyou's feet, with an indescribable expression.

But at this moment, Yu Youyou moved a little bit, and there was another duck cry in the silent air.

The monster stopped moving, and slowly turned its head to look towards the forest.

Lu Keming held Yu Youyou down, quickly took off her shoes, and threw them into the dark forest behind her.

When the monster's head finally turned to the forest, the surroundings fell into darkness again, leaving only the moon half covered by the dark clouds still emitting dim light.

The dark forest concealed everyone's figure, the monster didn't see anything, turned his head back, and continued walking towards the castle.

Under the dim moonlight, the people standing at the intersection of the forest could not advance or retreat, they could only watch the swamp monster move towards the castle.

At this time, Yu Youyou reacted from the shock of being thrown her shoes, she opened her mouth, and she was about to cry with a "wow", but Lu Keming quickly covered her mouth with eyes and hands, and could only utter "uh huh" the sound of.

The monster had already walked outside the gate of the castle, raised its huge hand, and knocked on the gate of the castle.

"Boom...boom..."

Yu Youyou's attention was attracted, she stopped crying, and looked at the monster sideways.

Heavy and powerful voices resounded in the silent night, waking up the birds on the trees, and they sang and flew to the sky.

The monster was not disturbed by the chirping of the birds, and slowly moved its head back, continuing to knock on the door.

Those voices were like urging the soul, making everyone hold their breath.

Fang Ziang's head was covered with cold sweat, and his clothes were completely soaked by the sweat on his back.

Seeing the whole picture of the monster, Yu Youyou quickly lost interest. When she turned her attention, she remembered her shoes again. Just as she was about to continue crying, her mouth was covered again.

Lu Keming covered Yu Youyou's mouth with his hand to prevent her from making any more noise.

The monster knocked on the door for a long time, but there was still no response from the castle, so it left the castle again, walked towards the swamp in the direction it came, and slowly sank into the swamp.

Only when its black voice disappeared under the moonlight did everyone at the entrance of the forest dare to breathe a sigh of relief.

"That's why it's written on the note in the castle that you can't stay in the castle at night?" Fang Ziang took a deep breath, fortunately he didn't stay inside, otherwise, wouldn't it be cold already.

"Why are there all these inhuman things here?"

For a time, most people began to feel sympathy.

Lu Keming glanced at the direction the monster was leaving, and let go of Yu Youyou's mouth.

Yu Youyou's face collapsed, and she looked into the forest with her hands, but there was no sign of shoes in the pitch black.

She turned her head, her eyes were full of tears, and she squatted to the side with her bare feet, wiping her tears alone.

Lu Keming stood aside, glanced at Yu Youyou, his eyes were unclear, and he didn't speak.

Ye Li didn't notice what happened to Yu Youyou, she was still thinking about the monster just now, she pressed her brows, and asked Shen Minghua: "Is there any hope for all of us to meet it?"

"There should be, but now we don't know the situation here, and we don't know the strength of that thing, so it's better not to bump into it." Shen Minghua weighed it in his heart, and finally decided to act cautiously.

Anthony lit the bonfire again.

Everyone sat down.

"Is Andi a human?" Ye Li took it for granted that Andi was a girl, but after seeing the strange creatures here, he became unsure.

Shen Minghua shook his head, and answered Ye Li in a warm voice: "This mission is just a few short words, and there is too little other information available. Let's wait until dawn?"

Ye Li nodded, turned to look at Yu Youyou who was squatting on one side with his back to the crowd, and noticed the bird in her hand.

"What do you want a bird for?"

Yu Youyou was still sad because of the shoes thrown away by Lu Keming, but when Ye Li reminded him of the bird in his hand, he forgot about the shoes in an instant, and replied cheerfully to Ye Li.

"Baked it."

Lu Keming looked at the smile on Yu Youyou's face again, and looked away lightly.

"You know how to bake?" Ye Li looked at Yu Youyou with doubts all over his face.

Yu Youyou shook his head as a matter of course, "No."

Ye Li twitched the corner of his mouth, "Then how do you bake it?"

Yu Youyou turned to look at Lu Keming expectantly, Lu Keming turned his face away without changing his face.

Shen Minghua, who had witnessed all this, laughed, and said to Youyou: "Give me the Youyou, and I will bake it for you."

Yu Youyou's eyes widened in surprise, and immediately abandoned Lu Keming beside him, and ran towards Shen Minghua.

"Brother Minghua, you can also bake, you are amazing!"

The previous compliments to Lu Keming were immediately transferred to Shen Minghua.

Lu Keming looked at the two talking and laughing over there, and the corner of his mouth raised a mocking arc.

Yu Youyou stretched out her hand, about to hand the bird to Shen Minghua.

But it was intercepted by one in the middle.

"What do you mean?" Shen Minghua looked at Lu Keming's hand and asked with a dark face.

Lu Keming looked at Shen Minghua, the gemstone on the ring reflected the cold blue light, and his voice was like the sound of water, with a bit of contempt and irony.

"Such a simple thing, even if I don't do it, people will naturally do it, so I don't bother President Shen to take care of my teammates."

His eyes were cold, with bright disdain, and in front of Shen Minghua, he threw the bird into Anthony's arms, looked at Shen Minghua again, and said something to Anthony indifferently.

"Toasted."

"Yes." Anthony quickly responded.

Shen Minghua's eyes darkened, and he clenched his fingers tightly.

Lu Keming turned around and walked back, Yu Youyou scratched his head, looked at Shen Minghua with a bad expression, took out a few candies from his bag and stuffed them into Shen Minghua's arms.

"Thank you Minghua."

Hearing Yu Youyou's crisp voice, Shen Minghua came back to his senses, and a smile appeared on his face.

"You're welcome, I didn't help you with anything."

Yu Youyou nodded and turned to leave, but Ye Li held her hand.

"What's the matter, Ah Li?" Yu Youyou looked at Ye Li suspiciously.

Ye Li stared at Yu Youyou's bare feet, and reproached: "I told you not to bring your weird things in, but you didn't listen."

Yu Youyou pursed her mouth.

Ye Li sighed, took out a pair of shoes from his space and handed them to Yu Youyou, "You should be able to wear these."

When Yu Youyou saw those shoes, his eyes lit up, he stretched out his arms to hug Ye Li, and said happily, "Thank you, Ah Li!"

"Okay, let's go." Ye Li waved his hand.

Yu Youyou just put the shoes on her feet and chased after the bird in Anthony's hand.

Ye Li looked at Shen Minghua, who was not too emotional, and comforted Shen Minghua, "Lu Keming's personality is like this, don't take this matter to heart."

Shen Minghua shook his head.
