168 Coming in Contact with the Enemy

The next day, the townspeople slowly returned to their houses one by one. Thanks to the timely evacuation and Baiyi's help, there were almost no casualties that was caused by the devils other than a few who suffered from minor injuries from a stampede when the townspeople were rushing up the hill. Most of their houses were intact as well except for a few families who had lost their homes due to fire that was caused by themselves during the panic.

Strictly speaking, the losses that the devils caused was much smaller than the losses that they had caused themselves.

By the river that flowed through the town, Baiyi built a temporary embankment with an Earth-type spell before he finally was able to destroy the barrier completely. Even though the water that had been piling up for one whole night on the upper river raged down the moment the barrier was lifted, it did not cause any damage to the town at all.
