Why did he call me again?

Did you change your mind and plan to kill me too?

Thinking to myself, Liliya's little face tightened.

She gritted her teeth and quietly reached into the front pocket of her overalls, intending to take out a homemade retractable electric baton.

"I have another question."

Gilan glanced at the female student's movements and said calmly, turning a blind eye.

"What's the problem?" Liliya slowly turned around and asked.

"Do you usually like watching movies?" Gilan asked.

Based on the previous conversation, he guessed that the background time setting of <Moon-Scorched Village#1> should be decades ago in the real world.

He wanted to know if movies had already appeared in this timeline.

"Movie...?" Liliya looked confused.

She felt that the young man in front of her was really strange and always asked strange questions, but she did not dare to be perfunctory, so she added:

"I don't watch much. My sister warned me that there are bad things in movies. If you watch too much, you will easily learn bad things."

"Miss Barbara hates movies?"

Gilan thought this might be a clue, so he asked.

Liliya hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"My sister is a devout Dawn Era believer. The priest who preaches in the church has warned believers more than once that there are devils hidden in some unhealthy films, which will corrode people's hearts, expand their desires, and make people indulge in indulgence and depravity."

Hearing this, Gilan sighed secretly.

Come on, asking is in vain.

He has heard this kind of words countless times in his past and present lives.

In fact, the subtext is that people should watch less movies, be less exposed to the stimulation of sensual dogs and horses, and know how to exercise moderation to maintain physical and mental health.

The church's intentions were good, but the two sisters seemed to have misunderstood the priest's meaning and truly believed that there was an evil force hidden in the movie.

But Gilan also learned a piece of news.

It is in this timeline that the "movie" has already come out.

'Then it was during these decades that movies were completely banned and forcibly classified as contraband...'

Gilan thought.

'Well, we cannot draw an equal sign crudely and directly. True Film Reel is related to reality, but it is not necessarily a completely equivalent portrayal.'

"Miss Liliya, thank you for your answer."

Gilan nodded.

"Be careful on the road."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked straight into the dense forest on the left.

Liliya looked at him, confused.

Didn't it say there were headless beasts in the woods?

Why did you go in like this?

Could this person be lying to me?!

Gilan doesn't know or care about the psychological activities of female students. He shuttles through the forest and runs in a straight line.

Not long after, I saw the outline of a row of long wooden pile walls deep in the woods from a distance, like a giant brown snake lurking in the dense forest.

That's where Oldraf Village falls.

The train track actually goes to the east of the village and goes north, and the village is located in the middle of the forest.

Gilan plans to take advantage of this movie viewing to see if he can hunt down the Black Goat in front of the village chief's house - the host of the evil worship activity "Witch Demon Society", Old God Cult "Dawn Golden Bough" member, Mr. Mick.

At this time, indistinct male and female voices began to appear in the surrounding woods, shouting:

"Hello-"

"Is there anyone-"

Accompanied by the rustling of the bushes, there seemed to be something strange.

Gilan turned a deaf ear to this.

His body moved, his legs crossed in large strides, and he ran forward quickly.

The nearby Tribute Wolf group has already been attacked once by his Corruption. Even if he kills them again, there will be no benefit and it will be a waste of time and energy.

After approaching the wooden pile wall, Gilan took a few steps forward and jumped up.

Snap!

He stepped hard on the wooden pile wall, directly making a dented footprint, then used the force to pull himself up, and grabbed the top of the sharpened wooden pile. He immediately turned over, crossed the wall, and fell into the village.

Gilan looked up and saw that he was in the path area on the right side of the village, surrounded by large banyan trees.

He could even see the looming red brick house in the distance, which was the residence of Scribe Espi.

Gilan After identifying the direction, he walked straight back along the muddy path.

Encountering several crazy villagers on the way, he ignored them and shook them off at an extremely fast speed, quickly arriving at the Stone Brick Square.

Immediately afterwards, he adjusted his direction and headed towards the main road directly ahead.

After passing through the Stone Brick Square, it took about ten minutes to successfully reach the deepest part of the village.

A two-story wooden building with a sloping roof still stands on the roadside.

Under the awning at the door, the Black Goat was tied to a wooden post, with his head lowered, grazing silently, looking harmless and indifferent to the world.

Gilan knew how powerful it was and did not approach it rashly.

He first loaded the ammunition for the revolver and shotgun. Then, about thirty meters away, he raised the revolver and fired at the black sheep.

The harsh sound of gunfire broke the silence all around.

Six rounds of bullets were fired in a surprise attack.

However, that Black Goat twisted its body in an extremely weird posture, and even the sheep's head twitched several times quickly like an epilepsy, leaving an afterimage.

He dodged all the bullets!

'You can't hit even a sneak attack?'

Gilan's eyes narrowed.

Black Goat was attacked by a sneak attack and suddenly turned to look at Gilan.

The pair of indifferent horizontal eyes stared at him at an asymmetrical angle, while the mouth was still chewing grass.

Collapse!

It shook its head and easily broke the tether.

Immediately, he stood up like a human, and his body swelled up like a balloon, turning into a two-meter-tall goat-headed monster.

"Come and play." Black Goat spoke, sending out two strange bytes that were deep and powerful, but full of invitation.

Gilan ignored the monster at all, picked up Double-Barreled Shotgun and opened fire.

Bang!!

Black Goat quickly stepped on his backward bent legs, and his entire tall body dodged forward to the left. The shotguns were scattered in the empty space and splashed with soil.

After it landed, it stepped on it again, using its strength to rush towards Gilan.

Gilan put away the revolver, carried the shotgun in one hand, and took out Demon-Hunting Axe with the other.

He looked coldly at Black Goat, who was jumping from left to right. When the two were ten meters apart, he suddenly took a step forward to meet him.

Gilan was nearly half a meter shorter than his opponent. When the four black dagger-like hoof claws swung towards him, he had no choice but to slash upward with the ax.

Clang!!

There was a snap and sparks flew.

In this head-on confrontation, Gilan was pushed two meters horizontally by a huge force, and his feet dragged two traces on the ground.

Black Goat, on the other hand, did not take a step back. He just raised his paw and glanced. He noticed that there was a slight scratch mark on it, and he couldn't help but growled, as if he was annoyed.

Although Gilan is slightly behind in terms of strength, it is much better than the first time.

After all, at this stage, he is more than a little stronger than before, and he is fully capable of competing head-on with Black Goat.

He raised his eyes, stepped on his feet, and rushed forward again.

The ax swung horizontally and struck the sheep-headed monster in the belly.

Black Goat stretched out its slender dark red tongue and grinned a weird smile. Its hoofs and claws slapped from top to bottom and hit the ax head straight, making a crisp sound.

The ax blow was interrupted, slashed downwards, and swung in the air.

At the same time, its head tilted like a poisonous snake's bullet, and it opened its mouth and bit Gilan's neck.

Snap!!

Black Goat is full of sharp teeth, but he bites nothing!

Gilan bent down and lowered his head, avoiding it by just a hair.

He raised the shotgun in his left hand and pressed the muzzle against Black Goat's chest.

"Let's see how you hide this time!"

Gilan looked fiercely and immediately pulled the trigger.

Bang!!
