Chapter 357 False Accusation
Kailin put away her two guns and waved her hands: "You're welcome. We were also asked by Miss Ye Lan to help guard against any abnormalities in the city."
The captain's expression was solemn. "These monsters don't look like a natural invasion, but rather like they were deliberately released. Their location is so precise that they have directly cut off our route to reinforce the city gate."
Kailin lowered her head in thought: "So, someone wants to stop the defenders from supporting the city gate?"
"I think it's a collaboration between inside and outside," said Mo Yan.
"I'm afraid so." The captain nodded. "Also, a brother just sent me news that both the east and west gates were attacked by mutant monsters. The situation is not good."
Hearing this, Mo Yan sighed angrily: "Everything is just as Miss Ye Lan expected..." Then he looked at the captain of the soldiers and said, "You go and evacuate the people around first. As for the monsters, leave it to us."
"Really? Thank you so much!" The captain clasped his fists in gratitude, then turned around and directed the soldiers to evacuate the people.
Mo Yan and Kailin stood there and continued talking. Just as they were about to move on to other places, an obvious dangerous aura suddenly caught Mo Yan's attention.
"Are there enemies?" Mo Yan gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and turned to look at the street on the left.
At this moment, two pairs of dim lights appeared in the darkness. When the monster walked out of the shadows, he put down his sword.
Ahead stood two dark-skinned shadow wolves. These monsters gravitated toward the shadows, making their movements unpredictable. Strangely, they showed no intent to attack. Instead, they turned and walked toward the street. After looking back at Mo Yan for a few seconds, they quickly ran off into the distance.
"What was that just now?" Karen asked.
Mo Yan shook his head. "I'm not sure, but those two shadow wolves seem to be signaling us to follow them."
"Really? In that case..." Kailin turned around and then summoned her motorcycle with her ring, "Get on."
Mo Yan jumped onto the back of the motorcycle. Kailin stepped on the accelerator, and with the roar of the engine, the motorcycle rushed out like a flash of lightning, chasing the two shadow wolves.
The night wind howled, and the streets on both sides quickly receded. Shadow Wolf nimbly moved through the alleys, occasionally looking back to check if the two were following.
"Something's wrong..." Mo Yan narrowed his eyes. "Shadow Wolves don't usually take the initiative to guide humans."
"You mean someone is controlling them?" Karen asked, turning her head slightly.
"I'm not sure, but judging by their appearance, they are somewhat similar to the abilities Miss Ye Lan uses during the day."
"So it's Miss Ye Lan..."
Before Kailin could finish her words, the shadow wolf in front suddenly disappeared after crossing the street, followed by an attack from five skeleton crystal beasts and dozens of monsters.
“There are some here too?”
Karen braked suddenly and spun her tires, making a sharp sound as the tires scraped against the cobblestone road.
"It seems that it is true. Miss Ye Lan asked them to help us lead the way. The purpose is to accurately find these monsters scattered in the city."
"What are you waiting for? Let's go together!"
Kailin slammed the throttle, and the motorcycle roared like a beast, charging towards the group of monsters. The Skeleton Beast let out a piercing roar, its claws tearing through the air as it lunged towards them.
After getting off the car, the two of them once again cooperated with each other, and with the help of the patrol soldiers, they quickly eliminated all the monsters in front of them. After separating from the patrol soldiers, the two shadow wolves reappeared in the shadows and ran away again.
Kailin and Mo Yan exchanged a glance, then, in tacit agreement, followed Shadow Wolf's lead once more. They throttled sharply, and with the roar of the engine, the motorcycle raced like lightning, chasing Shadow Wolf down the next block. The night wind howled, and the buildings on either side merged into a blurry gray shadow in the peripheral vision.
So time passed slowly, and the two of them had no idea how many places they had passed by that were attacked by monsters.
By the time Kailin and Mo Yan had finished dealing with the seventh gathering point of monsters, the sky in the east was already turning pale. In the morning light, the two shadow wolves finally stopped leading the way and crouched on a high wall, their dark green eyes watching them quietly.
"Huh, is it finally over?" Karen shook her sore arms, and the sound of the motorcycle engine also became a little tired.
Mo Yan sheathed his sword and looked up at the city wall in the distance.
"No, it's not over yet. According to Ye Lan's plan, this is just the beginning." He said seriously, and at this moment, a dense crowd of figures came running in the distance. "Look, the audience is here."
Kailin followed Mo Yan's gaze and saw a large number of heavily armed soldiers rushing towards the end of the street. Leading them was Keqing, who rushed over in a hurry, as if something serious had happened.
At this moment, she sighed angrily: "Oh, what a hassle, can't you just let me have a good rest?"
"There's no point in saying more. Are you ready?" Mo Yan turned his head and asked.
Kailin flexed her wrists, a confident smile on her lips: "Of course, although I'm a little tired."
Keqing and her soldiers approached, her long purple hair gleaming in the morning light, her eyes filled with anxiety. "How are you? Are you all right? I heard from Ye Lan that something happened in the city, but she couldn't leave because she was guarding the city gate, so she had to ask me, who was the closest, to come here."
"Don't worry, Lady Keqing, it's easy with our strength." Kailin said with a smile, putting her hands on her hips.
Seeing this, Keqing couldn't help but chuckle. "Really? That would be great. I've heard about your exploits tonight from the patrol captain here. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's a small matter. Although it's a bit tiring, it's worth it if I can help you!" Karen smiled again, putting her hands on her hips.
"Really? It seems Miss Karin is really full of energy." Keqing said with a smile.
Just as they were talking, a man dressed as a soldier came to Keqing impatiently, dragging another injured civilian.
"Warn Lady Keqing, we have something important to report!"
Keqing frowned and turned to look at the soldier: "What's the rush?"
With the help of the soldiers, the civilian dragged his heavy body and pointed at Mo Yan and Kailin with difficulty, saying, "My lord, these two guys are acting... I saw it with my own eyes before. They were the ones who brought those monsters into the city quietly!"
"what?"
These words resonated like a thunderclap. Kailin's smile froze, and Mo Yan's hand was already on the hilt of his sword. The surrounding soldiers instantly became alert, their spears pointed at the two men.
Keqing's pupils suddenly contracted: "What did you say?"
"We really saw it with our own eyes," the soldier agreed. "At first, when he told me about it, I didn't believe it. But when I saw them following the two shadow wolves to clear out the monsters, I felt something was wrong. Shadow wolves are obviously ferocious monsters, so why would they help humans lead the way? Unless..."
The soldier's words instantly froze the atmosphere. Kailin stamped her feet anxiously, "What nonsense are you talking about? Those two shadow wolves were clearly summoned by Miss Ye Lan to help guide us!"
Hearing this, Keqing's voice suddenly turned cold: "You said that those two guide wolves were sent by Ye Lan to lead the way for you?"
"Yes, otherwise how would we know that so many monsters appeared in the city!" Karen nodded quickly.
However, Keqing's next answer stunned everyone present: "Ye Lan does have the ability to transform shadows into monsters, but she is currently supervising the battle at the city gate and has not sent any familiars."
