Chapter 3990 Howls
It was already dusk and the village was being engulfed by darkness little by little.
Earlier, some rays of light were strongly shooting into the thatched hut. But as the sun went down, the small hut was also enveloped in darkness.
Fortunately, everyone possessed good eyes that they could still use to see their surroundings clearly, even in the pitch darkness.
"Waah! Waah!"
Soon after, loud howls were heard outside.
Just then, a ball of light was seen not far away. It was so bright that everyone could see it even through the thick thatches of the hut.
"Cover your ears quickly!" Fuxi ordered urgently.
Just after the ball of light appeared, piercing screams resounded. "Waah! Waah!"
After a while, the screams stopped.
"So, that's a Treacherous Being?" Eastern Emperor Taiyi asked as he pointed at the ball of light seen roaming outside.
When they looked through the thatches, they found that the ball of light had a rather irregular shape and that the piercing screams actually came from it.
"That's right. It seems that they have begun to move," the Snake Goddess replied with a nod.
While they were still conversing, another Treacherous Being appeared from the distance.
And like the first one, it also let out shrilling screams.
As time passed by, more and more Treacherous Beings appeared.
In the beginning, they were still able to bear the head-splitting howls, but as the Treacherous Beings grew larger in number, the howls seemed to be endless and it was as if their energies were being drained.
Soon, their faces contorted badly and turned blue as they became distressed.
"Is it going to continue for the whole night?" Zen asked in a low voice, holding his aching head.
The Snake Goddess smiled bitterly and said, "One thing is for sure, it's just the beginning. There is a division of labor among the Treacherous Beings. Every night, they will gather together and howl desperately. These deafening screams could actually be heard even from faraway places."
The howls had been so terrifying. If ordinary people were on the receiving end, they would surely drive them crazy.
This was because it wasn't just a simple howl, but an aggressive spiritual attack.
"I don't think we can bear this for several hours. Is there something that we can do?" Yasamin asked with a livid face. Her heart was thumping so fast because of restlessness.
"Destroy your hearing," Fuxi blurted out of nowhere. "We can still use our spiritual senses to communicate with each other. We just need to repair our hear
t what happened. After knowing what happened, they were rendered speechless, and they looked at Zen with sympathy.
After stabbing his own ears for over a hundred times, Zen finally chose to give up and just let the howls resound in his ears.
Currently, the ancestry-level bloodline was still unable to replace him. Otherwise, it wouldn't need such a troublesome method to make him suffer. However, there must be other reasons for it to do so.
Zen gritted his teeth and sat with his legs crossed. He gathered his resolve and wore a serious face.
Since he couldn't avoid hearing the howls, he had no choice but to do his best to bear them.
Neither Fuxi nor the Snake Goddess knew how devastating the Treacherous Beings' howls could be. Every night, they would destroy their hearing before they experienced a much more intense level of the howls.
An hour hadn't even passed but the intense pain had already been unbearable for Zen. The entire night would last for twenty hours. That meant his suffering would be unimaginable.
While everyone was staring at Zen with a worried face, they still maintained sharp vigilance.
If the Treacherous Beings found out where they were hiding, it meant immediate death for them.
They also had to keep watch on Zen. If the moment came that he wasn't able to control himself and started wreaking havoc because of the pain, they would need to stop him at all costs.
Fortunately, Zen's pain and suffering only lasted for about four hours. As the painful expression on Zen's face gradually disappeared, it was replaced by a suspicious look.
He knew that there was something wrong going on. The howls had changed and turned into low chanting sounds.
