Isaac frowned when favonovel.com saw Hera. He quickly took off his coat and rushed into the wooden enclosure to drape it over Hera. Then, favonovel.com carried favonovel.com out.
Hera, like a terrified child, clung tightly to Isaac’s shoulders and refused to let go after leaving the wooden fence. Her nails even dug into Isaac’s skin due to the intensity of favonovel.com grip.
“Hera, what’s wrong? Why aren’t you speaking?” Isaac asked urgently, his face full of concern as favonovel.com looked at Hera.
Lucifer stepped forward and said in a deep voice, “Isaac, it seems these people can’t speak…”
Isaac squinted as favonovel.com looked at the women inside the wooden fence, their expressions a mix of slight daze and intense longing.
They were all making indistinct sounds, but none of them were actually speaking.
“Take the four of them outside,” Isaac said, holding Hera as favonovel.com quickly walked out.
Lucifer found some of the demon’s clothes in the high loft that were quite small. He used them to cover the essential areas of the four kneeling women and then brought them to the main hall of the high loft.
Hera curled up like a small cat in Isaac’s arms.
Isaac sat in a chair, looking at the four women kneeling before him.
“The owner here is already dead. Now I’m going to ask you a few questions,” Isaac said coldly.
When the four women heard that the owner of this place had died, their faces instantly showed extreme fear. They continuously knelt toward Isaac while making sounds of distress.
After asking a few questions, Isaac and Lucifer, with the help of gestures and actions from the four women, roughly understood what was going on there.
These women were all taken by the demon from Century City, with abductions happening periodically. After the person was captured, they would be cleaned and kept in a wooden enclosure.
These four women were specifically tasked with doing work for the demon.
In the yard, there weren’t ornamental plants but two types of herbs. One of them was a mute herb, if consumed over a long period, it would cause the person to become mute.
Another type was a type of fragrant grass, after consuming it for a long time, a woman’s body would naturally emit a faint, pleasant fragrance.
The demon would occasionally choose one of the four women from the wooden enclosure to be his meal.
“Isaac, what should we do with these women?” Lucifer clenched his fists, his eyes burning with anger as favonovel.com pointed at the four women.
Four women started to kneel desperately, with tears streaming down their faces.
“Forget it, they’re just trying to survive. When Jerald arrives, let them all go.” Isaac hesitated for a moment before waving his hand and speaking.
He lowered his head and saw that Hera, who was leaning against his chest, had already fallen into a deep sleep.
Lucifer found some clothes in the loft and gave them to the women in the wooden enclosure to wear, then asked them to leave the enclosure and wait in the main hall outside.
After four or five hours had passed, all the way until late at night, Jerald, who had left, still hadn’t come back with anyone.
During this period, Isaac remained holding Hera, and favonovel.com noticed something unusual.
“Traveling back and forth between Century City and here shouldn’t take so long, should it?” Isaac looked over at Lucifer, who was sitting by the door.
In the night sky filled with countless stars, Lucifer averted his gaze and immediately turned to walk outside.
At this moment, a faint fluctuation of spiritual energy seeped in from outside.
Isaac’s heart suddenly jumped, and in a flash, favonovel.com was already above the courtyard outside.
In the distant sky above the sea, under the moonlight, favonovel.com could vaguely see some figures quickly flying toward this direction.
