They carefully checked the corpse of unknown creature which has ugly face and wounds all over the body. Pedro said, "I know what this is. It should be goblin. I've seen them in many comic books. I had always thought they only existed in fantasy. But this time experience is making me rethink about my life. We might be in a big trouble because goblins only hunt in group. We better pray there would be no demon lord here. The ones we saw at the outside has green skin and this one here actually has red skin. I wonder why their skin colors would be different."
Tina rolled her eyes and other people wanted to laugh. But, Glenn got another idea and nodded in agreement. Tina never knew that Pedro would read comics and he would actually think a lot on strange issues in a critical situation like now. But she felt that one thing he said might be true. They are probably already in a big trouble, she worriedly sighed in silence. However, they are still not in a hurry because they are confident that they will be able to get out of here as long as they want.
Several people stood in guard while other people searched the entire house but they found no one. The only useful thing they found was a family photo of three people; a tall man, a beautiful woman and a little girl in the man's arms. The man is tall and burly. The noticeable thing is his bald head and a cold smile which only Russians can have. The woman is a beautiful blonde in a floral dress. The young girl is also a cute blonde.
It was Mark who found out. He passed the photo to other people immediately. After a while, they all regrouped in the front living room. Several people didn't dare to relax and they were intently watching at the outside.
At that time, a loud bell rang. Although they could not tell which direction the sound came from, Peter made a conclusion that it came from the direction of the church. There were also gunshots sounds coming out from time to time. The police officers wanted to go to there but they couldn't figure out the exact locations. And they also understood that things would be very dangerous.
Tina was afraid to go around to take a big risk. Peter also agreed with her. He was also hoping to secure their safety first especially as they saw the strange creatures. With the veto of two highest ranking officers, other people had no comment anymore.
After all, the first code to follow when one met with weird and mysterious thing to run away and seek a safe environment. Do not follow curiosity. Although they were also afraid but they didn't choose to flee. After all, they know that they are police officers who have to stand and protect the citizens.
At that time, the back door was suddenly opened and a man in his thirties got in quickly with a ten years old little girl. He opened a drawer and took out a box full of yellow bullets, then he started to load the emptied magazines and told the little girl, "Ava, go to the kitchen and take that black backpack on the table. Quick!"
It alarmed all police officers. Peter raised his hand to stop other people and asked loudly, "Hello, are you the residents here? We are the police officers from San Christobal City. We are coming. Please stand by right there. I think we need to talk about the situations here."

Everyone didn't dare to relax because they could not determine whether that was the sound from enemy or friend. Fortunately, the reply from the man relaxed their tensions. When the two came out, they slowly put down their raised guns. Because these two were exactly the man and the little girl they saw in the family photo. They are also the owners of the house they're in.
"Yes. We are. Police? Thanks god. Did the outside world notice about us?"
The man was excited when he heard the question. He stopped doing things and called back his daughter who was about to walk into the kitchen. Then the two came out to the front living room. However, he suddenly asked when he saw many officers standing here and there cautiously in the living room, "How did you get into this? Do you know we are in a strange space now right?"
Everyone was surprised by his question. Peter said, "We were just walking into the Church and suddenly we found out we arrived here. So, what's going on here?"
After a short introduction, the two sides knew each others' names. The man is called Kevin. His daughter is Ava. As for his wife, she died years ago in a car accident. He was a marine and he is a combat readiness person. That was also the reason why they survived. He then recounted the things they experienced during an hour ago. It was literally Hell. The police officers also got to know the strange and mysterious side of the world.
When the strange monsters appeared, Kevin made a quick fight. Although he wanted to save his neighbors, he didn't dare to take the gamble. After killing several wolves and strange creatures, he took his daughter and fled away from his house directly for their safety. Since he thought that they might be easily able to escape from this right and wrong place, he only took a rifle and two pistols with a few magazines.
However, his thoughts were very simple and naive. After driving out of the town towards a safe direction without monsters, he found out that they couldn't get out of the village. It seems that something is restricting them from going away from the village. His car crashed into invisible barrier and they were almost injured.
Desperately, the man has to take his daughter and walked back to his house to take other things they would need to survive. At least, he knew that going back to the house would give much higher chance to survive than staying in the wild without foods and any ammo. As a survivalist and a gun lover, he has the habit of storing foods and ammunition in his house. These were also his confident for him to come back to this dangerous place.
He just can't imagine of being a powerless father who would have to watch his daughter dying in front of him. Who knew that he would actually see a group of fully armed officers in his house.
Kevin's story was also quite simple. He was trimming his lawn in the morning. Then, he found several wolves and small humanoid creatures at the end of the street. They appeared from the corner of the street and started to raid the houses and killed the living humans. Kevin immediately ran back into the house and took his guns. Soon, he fought and killed several dangerous creatures. He wanted to go and help neighbors but he found that more and more strange creatures and wolves were appearing. So, he made a decision to flee first. He took his daughter and quickly fled the scene with his truck. Fortunately, they escaped the scene without any damage taken. It was a smooth sailing until the truck hit the invisible barrier.
