"Alert!"
Li Chen issued the command the instant he realized the gravity of the situation.
No matter what the opposing creature was, he was prepared to take action, but before doing so, Li Chen felt it was best to first ascertain exactly what they were dealing with.
Once upstairs, Li Chen instructed Lisa to hide well and left a member of the Nether Army to watch over her. Only then did he approach a window in one of the rooms and quietly lifted a corner of the curtain to peek outside.
The sound of the bell continued for a while before gradually quieting down.
The town, although devoid of pedestrians, occasionally still had some noise coming from inside the houses.
But at this moment, the town had become a true dead town, completely silent without a single sound.
The only sound, if any, was the gentle rustling of the evening breeze.
Li Chen and Ning Wangyang each stood at one side of the window, observing the movement on the streets below.
