"Halt! What fiendish abomination are you? Stop!"
At that very moment, a thunderous shout rang out, halting the approaching creatures in their tracks.
The beasts looked closely. It was not Qin He, nor was it Lamborghini.

Holding a firewood stick, it pointed its "sword" at the creatures, standing ramrod straight with an imposing expression.
