When he woke up in the morning, Chen Ming, who woke up, didn't find Shaqiluo's figure, and immediately hurriedly looked around.

At this time, Hilty walked in through the door and said, "Don't worry, she's just outside." ”

"Thank you, senior. ”

Chen Ming said gratefully, and then stretched out easily, and said, "Let's go to Dongcheng today, we searched for most of the area of Xicheng yesterday, except for the energy beast, there seems to be no one else, although Dongcheng is dangerous, but there are many people and it is easier to inquire about some news." ”

Hilty thought for a moment and nodded, "It's okay." ”

Chen Ming smiled and asked Hilty for some dried meat before leaving the room.

Walking out of the door, Chen Ming saw that Shaqiro was sitting on the stone steps in a daze, perhaps she had spotted him, and the girl turned around and beckoned.

Chen Ming walked up to her side, sat down as well, and handed the dried meat he had taken from Hilty to Shaqiluo, "I haven't eaten for a day, I'm hungry." ”

Instead of taking it, she looked up at him and said, "Do you eat?"

Chen Ming shook his head and said, "I'm not hungry. ”

"Oh. ”

Shakiro withdrew her gaze, put her chin in her small hand, and said, "I'm not hungry either." ”

Chen Ming frowned slightly and said, "Really?"

"Hmm. ”

Shakiro nodded, and stood up to walk back to the room, but before she could take two steps, she stopped, glancing into a corner in the distance.

"What's wrong?"

Tatsu asked puzzled, looking there as well.

"Here they are. ”

As he spoke, in the corner of Chenming's eyes, the skirt that was like snow turned red in an instant, and a magic power that made Chenming feel difficult to breathe surged out of Shaqiluo's body.

Inside, Hilty also noticed the abnormality, turned into a gray wolf and rushed out of the room, baring her teeth and saying, "There is a strong man coming, Chenming, be careful." ”

After Shaqiluo's lesson, Hilty obviously restrained a lot of wildness, and no longer rushed directly like before, but stood with Shaqiluo and protected Chenming behind her.

"You know them?"

Hilty asked, and the question was clearly not for Chenming.

Shaqiro nodded and said, "It's the Fifth Tribunal." ”

"Fifth Tribunal?!"

The wolf's pupils shrank, and it was clear that Hilty knew the term, "How could they show up at the hunting tournament?!"

"Wait, what is the Fifth Tribunal. ”

Chen Ming asked puzzled, he was very curious, what was unique about this so-called Fifth Ruling that would make them so jealous, and Hilty would forget it, but Sha Qiluo, why was it so solemn?

"In hell, the Demon Palace is like an official political institution, and the Demon Palace has seven offices under its jurisdiction. ”

Hilty didn't look back, and there was a deep awe in her deep voice, " These seven offices are the First Demon King Palace, the Second Elder's Pavilion, the Third Knight Palace, the Fourth Executioner, the Fifth Judgment Office, the Sixth Assassination Department, and the Seventh Military Office, among which the first three offices are absolutely impossible to leave the Demon Palace at will, and the last four will be sent to various places in the thirteenth layer world to carry out tasks, and the fifth Judgment Office is responsible for coordinating the intelligence and determining what harm the information or individual has to the hell world, and then dealing with it, and normally, every time they appear, it will be accompanied by a large number of deaths. ”

"If you want to become a judge, even the lowest-ranking reserve members need at least a sixth order, they must get rid of the shackles of their families and factions, and be absolutely loyal to the Demon Palace. ”

At this time, there was finally some movement at the end of the street in the distance, and before they could get closer, that terrible magic swept in.

Ten bloated black-robed figures appeared in the sight of the three of them unhurriedly, as Hilty said, powerful and mysterious.

"Ten Sixth-Order ......"

So far, no single faction in the withered city has ever had such a number of sixth orders, and even the most vampire was only eight of them in the information that Tatsunami had gotten.

To the relief of Chen Ming and Hilty, these black robes didn't seem to have any intention of approaching, but after saluting from a distance, they left from the other direction.

"Hoo ......"

When they completely disappeared from sight, Hilty also transformed into a human form, he wiped a cold sweat, and said with palpitations, "Fortunately, they have no intention of attacking, otherwise we would have to run away." ”

Shakiro also gathered all her magic power, but the color of the skirt on her body was still scarlet.

She returned to Chen Ming's side and spoke, "The appearance of the Fifth Ruling means that there is something happening in the Blighted City that even the higher-level leaders of the Demon Palace have to take seriously. ”

"So serious?"

Chen Ming's gaze froze for a moment, and he said, "According to what the senior just said, if it is really so serious, then the Demon Palace should be more than just these sixth-order demons, right?"

"Of course it's not that simple. ”

Hilty glanced at Shakiro and said, "Regular adjudicators need at least seven orders, and if the demons of this level want to hide, it is impossible for us to find out, they must have come, but because of the hunting competition, they did not appear." ”

Instead, he said, "But these things have nothing to do with us, clean up, we should go." ”

"Good. ”

It has to be said that the area of the withered city is particularly large, and at Hilty's speed, they ran for four hours, but they only reached the center, and they still did not meet their companions.

"By this point, the number of demons that have appeared has already begun to increase. ”

Hilty twitched the tip of her nose and said, "The various factions have begun to send advance troops to search for the whereabouts of the throne. ”

"We are not in a hurry about the throne, a faction only needs to occupy one throne to win, and we can plunder a ready-made one when the time comes. ”

"The immediate priority is to inquire about the whereabouts of the Drakes. ”

Hilty nodded and said, "I'll go and see the situation now, and in addition, about Shaqiluo, I hope she can hide her strength first, although the information of the red-clothed students of the other camps has been transparent, but I don't think they haven't hidden it, so in order to deal with some unexpected situations, it is better to avoid exposing too much first." ”

As soon as Chen Ming was about to speak, Sha Qiluo said, "I will only protect Chen Ming, and I am not interested in other things." ”

"...... of that"

Chen Ming smiled bitterly and said, "I will try my best not to expose Shaqiluo, senior be careful." ”

Although a little uneasy, Hilty nodded, and then turned into a gray wolf and ran into the distance.

"Exploratory Demons?"

Looking at Hilty's back, Chen Ming gradually had a trace of speculation in his heart, "Is it a coincidence, or is it a deliberate arrangement by you?"

It wasn't until late evening that Hilty returned to Tatsunaru's location, and this time, he suffered some minor injuries.

"On his way back, he was ambushed by the vampires. ”

Letting Chen Ming clean his wounds, Hilty said, "There are too many of them, and in addition to the purple clothes, there are not a few other low-level demons of the fifth order. ”

"Every war must be well prepared. ”

After the bandaging was completed, Chen Ming smiled, "We should be glad that you didn't meet the team led by the red clothes. ”

"Definitely. ”

Hilty nodded approvingly, he himself is a sixth-order, he knows the terrible thing about the sixth-order, with his strength, it is still reluctant to deal with a red-clothed person, if there is more help from a low-level demon, he can't get it back, it's two words.

Gently stroking the bandage covering his arm, he said, "By the way, although I have some injuries this time, it is not completely without gain. ”

"Oh?"

Chen Ming paused in his hand and said, "Have news of them?"

"Hmm. ”

Hilty nodded, "Drake and Zach were seen in the southeast of the city. ”

"They're all together?"

Chen Ming smiled in surprise, "The two sixth-order, the president is about to break through the seventh-order, it seems that their safety factor is higher than ours." ”

Hilty pursed her lips and looked meaningfully at the girl who was sitting still at the window in a daze, "Provided that she's not there." ”

Chen Ming smiled bitterly, "Do you mind senior?"

"Nope. ”

Hilty shook her head and said, "I just think she's a little bit uneasy." ”

Chen Ming smiled, "It's not easy, but at least, I'm happy to be with her." ”
