"Someone has really come."

A soft murmur came from below the cellar, the voice trembling.

"Great, we're saved!"

"Waaaaah..."

Some cheered, while others burst into tears.

"Let go, I'll move the things aside, and you can come out yourselves."

Chen Lin said.

The survivors in the cellar then realized what was happening and released the chains they were tightly gripping.

These planks and steel pipes were clearly hastily tied together, but they still have some weight to them.

However, for Chen Lin, it was just a matter of waving his hand.

"Where are the rest of your village?"

Chen Lin watched them all climb out and asked.

He also discovered the problem: all of these people were men, and all of them were in good physical condition.

There are so many elderly people and children in the village, but not a single one is to be seen.

This is not reasonable.

"I wonder if Xiaolong and the others escaped."

A middle-aged man sighed.

"Escape? What on earth happened here?"

Chen Lin was somewhat surprised.

Another person spoke up to explain, "We're actually here to stall these beasts; the rest of the village fled to the back..."

Upon hearing Chen Lin's question, the others also shared their experiences.

After they finished speaking, Chen Lin finally understood what was going on.

They discovered that the village was cut off from the outside world and had suddenly arrived in this unfamiliar mountain forest where the animals were enormous. Their first thought was to see what was going on outside.

Several brave souls ventured out of the village, but only one returned alive. That very night, a pack of wolves stormed into the village.

These gray wolves are enormous, far exceeding the size of wild wolves on Earth; even three or five adult men would be no match for them.

At first, the gray wolves killed several families, which is why the other villagers united to fight back.

But they later discovered that there were not only wolves, but also other wild animals.

More than 50 of the village's 200-plus residents died in one night.

Although most of them are elderly people with limited mobility, they felt desperate in the face of such a desperate situation, and many of them suffered a mental breakdown.

Fortunately, someone suddenly arrived.

Zheng Yue.

After she entered the village, she realized that something was wrong, but she had no way to get out. However, the fact that someone could get in gave the villagers a glimmer of hope.

They organized themselves to find wood, piled it up, and set it on fire to protect themselves while waiting for rescue.

But the wood eventually burned out, and they only lasted for less than half a day.

In the end, the village chief stepped in and organized the villagers into two groups. The elderly, children, and women, who had little fighting ability, retreated to the back of the village, while the able-bodied men stayed behind to attract and resist the wolf pack.

Because they discovered that no wild animals had ever appeared behind the village.

Staying in the village any longer would only lead to certain death.

Although I don't know why no wild animals have ever appeared on that mountain behind, it's still better than staying here and waiting to die.

"I see. You all stay here and don't wander off. I'm going to rescue them."

Chen Lin said.

"What a huge eagle!" A panicked shout suddenly rang out.

After the survivors calmed down, someone finally noticed Da Jin, who had been sitting still on the side.

They all took a few steps back in unison, their faces filled with terror.

"It's the golden eagle we saw yesterday," someone said, trembling.

The wolves are still able to put up a fight, and there is a glimmer of hope.

But such a huge golden eagle could wipe them out with a single wing strike.

Yesterday, it just flew over the village and scared the wolves so much that they didn't dare to utter a sound.

"Don't be afraid, it's my pet."

Chen Lin gave an explanation, then waved to Da Jin.

The golden-haired creature let out a cry and walked over step by step, its two huge wings stirring up gusts of wind as it swayed its body.

The survivors were sweating profusely with tension, and many of them felt their legs go weak.

Unexpectedly, the giant golden eagle lowered its head and rubbed against Chen Lin.

It's as tall as a house when it's standing, and this coquettish behavior is just too jarring.

"What a pet..."

Someone exclaimed in surprise.

"Da Jin, call your men over here."

Da Jin looked at Chen Lin with some doubt, but still did as he was told.

It let out a few loud cries towards the sky.

Less than two minutes later, a group of small black dots appeared in the distant sky.

More than a dozen giant black eagles flew towards the village and landed.

Although they are only half the size of the giant goldfish, they are still terrifying.

"This...this..." someone stammered, backing away, their face filled with panic.

"Can they understand you?" Chen Lin asked Da Jin.

Da Jin nodded.

"Then let them guard the village, so that these people won't be harmed by other wild animals."

Big Gold nodded again and called out to the other black hawks a few times.

Although the giant black eagles didn't understand why, they strictly followed their leader's orders, taking off in unison and landing around the village.

The survivors were stunned.

They heard everything Chen Lin said.

These giant eagles are incredibly intelligent.

"Oh no, the wolf king left earlier with a few wolves, they must have gone after the village chief and the others."

A man seemed to remember something and called out anxiously.

Upon hearing this, the others realized what was happening and started talking all at once.

It turned out that after they split into two groups, the wolf pack that had been drawn to this side of the village by them was able to tell that someone was missing.

The largest wolf in the pack led several others away midway, leaving the rest of the wolves to continue attacking them.

One of them knelt down and pleaded, "Brother, please save the village chief and the others! They're all elderly people and children over there."

Upon seeing this, the others knelt down before Chen Lin without hesitation.

"Get up, I will definitely save him."

Chen Lin frowned slightly and called out.

He then unleashed his divine power towards a nearby courtyard, using the power of the Heavenly Ranking of Life and Death to create a barrier.

"You all stay inside this courtyard and don't come out. I'm going to rescue people first, and I'll take you out later."

After Chen Lin finished speaking, he leaped up and stood on the back of the giant golden goose.

Da Jin understood, flapped its wings, creating a gust of wind, and flew towards the mountain behind the village.

According to them, the village chief had led most of the people away four or five hours ago, and if they hadn't encountered any obstacles, they would probably have reached the mountain behind them by now.

But the villagers also said that no wild animals have ever appeared in this area. Whether it is a pack of wolves or other wild animals they have seen, they all come from the front.

Chen Lin had only one thought about this.

That is, this mountain has something that even wild beasts fear.

The villagers were just grasping at straws in their desperation.

Da Jin quickly arrived at the outside of the mountain.

Just as Chen Lin was about to instruct it to land, he noticed that Da Jin's body stiffened and it fell straight down.

"What's going on?"

Chen Lin picked up Da Jin and gently placed him on the ground.

All he saw in Da Jin's small eyes was terror.

"Are there any powerful wild beasts in this mountain?" Chen Lin asked.

At the same time, he also sensed the presence of many humans, which should be the village chief and Zheng Yue.

But there was a faint smell of blood in the air.

When Da Jin heard Chen Lin's question, he hurriedly nodded and then shook his head.

"Not a wild beast? But it scares you?" Chen Lin asked again.

Da Jin nodded repeatedly.

Chen Lin said, "That's strange. I'm going in. Are you coming with me?"

Without the slightest hesitation, Da Jin shook his head frantically and flapped his wings a few times.

Recalling the image of Da Jin suddenly stiffening its body and not even flapping its wings, Chen Lin couldn't help but ask, "You can't even fly into the mountains?"

A look of fear flashed in Da Jin's eyes, and he nodded vigorously.

"Alright then, you wait outside. By the way, those wolves over there should be the wolf king and his men. Go and deal with them."

After saying that, Chen Lin flew directly into the mountains, following the scent of the villagers.

"I'd like to see what's here that can frighten the animals so much."
