"Do you want to know the answer?"

"What answer?"

"The cause of death of the owner of the Greon ranch, or the secret of the night. ”

"You know?"

With a scream, the silver threads nimbly reversed, sharp hooks and locks gripped the walls fiercely, and dust fell from the top of their heads. They hung on the outer wall, Xia Ming held a fire fold in his mouth, and asked vaguely at the wall at his feet, "Guess whose blood is this?"

Circular fires shone on the walls, and these blood stains were pinpoint-like and could only be formed by high-speed falls and friction.

"This... Could it be.."

"Yes, someone once came up and pushed a dead man off the wall. This dead man is most likely the owner of Grim's Ranch. ”

"How can you be sure it's dead?"

Xia Ming said: "I think it's more likely to be a dead person. ”

"What does this mean?"

"This shows that the rancher Dorbin Greon was dead before the so-called 'night' appeared, which is murder. Of course, we had to go down and look at the body to determine its owner. ”

He hesitated for a moment and said, "First master.."

"How.."

"If you die, I can't die, and if I die, you don't have to die, go find the murderer, he must be an accomplice of the 'night'. ”

Who knows what awaits them down there?

"Do you have any last words?" Mu said.

"Uhhhh Xia Ming scratched his head and said, "No." ”

The hook lock was released from the wall, and the two of them fell together. Unable to see anything clearly in the dimness, Mu Siyu suddenly launched the shaft type, grabbed Xia Ming, and the two stopped about a meter from the ground. Xia Ming's heart beat faster, and the fire fold in his mouth also fell out. Black sprouted a few sharp bamboo seedlings from the ground, and he was almost chilled.

"Thank you.." He said with a sigh in his heart.

"I've said a long time ago, it's good that a rookie like you can live well within the walls, and you don't even know how to die one day when you go out. She said in the tone of an instructor.

"What about the corpse you are talking about?"

Xia Ming looked around, "It must be around here, can you go down and take a walk." ”

Mu Siyu let go of him, and she jumped off the wall as well.

Xia Ming staggered to his feet, he picked up the fire fold from the ground, he felt a little cold, no matter how he blew it, he couldn't burn, he simply took out a box of matches and wiped it. At the same time as the match was lit, Xia Ming suddenly let out a scream.

"What's your name?" Mu Shiyu frowned.

"My hand is burned!" Xia Ming hurriedly shook off the match, and at the same time threw the cold, rotten finger out.

"You lost something. Mu Siyu asked.

"Hands, fingers. ”

But I didn't expect her to say, "What a fuss." ”

"Be careful. Mu Shiyu suddenly pulled out his hunting knife.

Xia Ming hurriedly leaned over, "What did you see?"

"No.. Nothing?" Mu said.

"Let's wait until dawn to come back, it's always a little weird. ”

Xia Ming hurriedly agreed, he didn't want to stay in this ghost place anymore.

Hunter's Academy, Prometheus Hall, Underground Labyrinth.

Somewhere in the labyrinth, someone had nailed a cone-shaped locust branch to one of the walls, and the head of the unknown lord was now pierced on it. Of the seven lord heads collected at the Hunter School, each of them was flesh and blood, they were nailed to locust branches, and their souls were sealed against the walls. In a sense, they are not dead, and from the source matter of perceiving life, one can feel the strong life consciousness of the lord.

This labyrinth is not designed to prevent outsiders from entering, it is actually designed to block the stubborn consciousness of the lord.

This unknown lord is really dead at this moment, and the perception stone rests quietly under the lord's skull, so quiet that it thinks of an ordinary stone.

"The experience of our predecessors tells us that the lord cannot be killed, but is it really dead, or is it not a lord at all? ”

Hoigre Varga faced the wall like a pilgrimage apostle. The Daiana behind him, as well as many of his executors, are all armed.

Another weird problem, in a cage, the puppet with a soul connection that appears to be half alive and half dead. What's going on with its owner?

Hoigre said, "Put that thing in the hands of that kid." ”

"Headmaster, are you sure you want to do this? She is a knight and will probably become a knight in the future. ”

"If, as the professor said, only special people can use it, it is useless for us to keep it. ”

"The mimicry of order can be used by both knights and hunters, and the professor must have made something wrong. Said a hunter from a former investigation unit.

"If only I could see the mimicry of order. Connor said.

"The mimicry of order is lost, and the mimicry of the Second Artifact is still in that basement. "I'm going to get it back." ”

"No, I don't. "In the next phase of the investigation, we can arrange for secret hunters." ”

"Is there any news from the South?"

The executor in charge of receiving the echo from the south said: "The latest news has not been transmitted from the south for the time being, and at the speed of Xunniao, it will take at least two days to arrive." However, the last time the Rangers reported back the movement of monsters, they found traces ten kilometers south of the wall. Strangely, those tracks appeared as if they had appeared out of nowhere, leaving a pair of footprints and then vanishing, and the pursuers have not yet ascertained their whereabouts. ”

“i943?”

The person in charge of the test subject stood up and said, "Subject i943, a netherworld creature, was a wolf type I before evolution, and a piercing wolf type II after evolution. At 11 a.m. on October 9, he was hunted by trainee number 114.

Investigation and analysis showed that the use of the drug was not sufficient, resulting in its evolutionary failure.

Then, with no possibility of regenerating tissue, i943 unexpectedly evolved into Type II, and witnesses claimed that it had a hunter next to it.

On December 26th, at 11 p.m., Piercing Wolf II shattered its skull and removed something from i943's skull after being severely injured by a known guest.

As it turned out, the hunter did exist, but not among us.

According to Designation 114, the hunter was short in stature. It was initially suspected that he had dwarf symptoms. And none of the hunters left to us from the territory have reached this level. ”

"Elsewhere about the collection of 'night'. ”

"The last time Night was seen in the main city of the territory, which is now completely locked down. Three days earlier, while the apostles were burning a batch of 'unfruitful things,' a boy who had been rumored to have seen 'Night' had been kidnapped and had left the main city for a night in a nearby village, after which they had left for Sanam. Preliminary guesses were that they didn't get an answer from the boy. ”

"Internship group?"

The executor in charge of the internship group looked embarrassed, "Execution number 8251201 Internship Group 1201 hides the team leader number 114, and has successfully arrived at the destination. But... However, there are only two people left in the execution team..."

"Leave things to 114, and whatever happens, first make sure he can't die. ”

"This matter has been arranged for the only descendant of the Murong family according to your wishes, and among the remaining two people in the execution team, the strength is also the strongest. ”

Hoigre nodded, "If you have some secrets about the Murong family, let 114 discover them." I want to leave things to him, it's reassuring. ”

"Headmaster, we've lost track of that guest. ”

"Just leave it to 114, he'll definitely go back to him"

They spent the second half of the night in the "pillars" of the wall, the early morning sun shining on the wall, and the transparent force field refracted the sunlight like a layer of water. Xia Ming had to secretly erase Harazi, but fortunately he was not seen.

"Eh, you look like a rat stealing lamp oil. Mu Shiyu, who was sitting opposite with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at him, his clear pupils reflecting the sunlight, and then said, "Don't touch me with your right hand for a while, otherwise I will definitely beat you after you go down." ”

Xia Ming immediately hid his hand.

perimeter of the wall. Xia Ming had never seen so many trees, dense and endless, similar to the ocean depicted in that strange book.

Standing on the ground, the ground is still hard under your feet, but it is true that the outside world is very big and not a place for humans to go.

The air outside the wall was not good, dry with a pungent nose, he didn't know what the reason was, but after staying for a long time, he would inevitably have a bad mood. The thin force field emanating from the wall pillars, he touched it lightly, and it could really ripple like water. In addition, it seems to have the ability to make objects float, like on the surface of a lake with a boat. It's just that the lake is small, and when the leaves fall, it slows down when you knock it down.

On a stone brick on the wall pillar, an ancient symbol of "∞" is marked, which is said to symbolize infinity.

Xia Ming had no intention of looking at this, because they hadn't found anything other than the rotten finger he had found last night.

What about corpses?

Mu Shiyu asked the same question last night, her eyes are like cats, and she can see things at night.

Xia Ming said: "Don't worry, I think there is another way." ”

Mu Shiyu asked, "What way?" ”

Xia Ming straightened his clothes and combed his hair: "For the sake of the truth, even if you give it up, it's worth it." ”

Mu Shiyu said: "You don't want to get the truth through that eldest lady. ”

Xia Ming said: "It's okay, but let's go and ask Mrs. Greon quickly, after all, it's the pillow person." ”

"You know the rumors of Night, and she should have known something about Greon when she disappeared. ”

"Also, find out if there is a motorized device in the ranch, and if there is any other way to get up besides the motorized device. ”

He said: "It seems that we can only know the owner of that finger if we find the murderer first, and the clue of 'Night' is hidden in it." ”

Mu Shiyu said, "Okay, you go to Mrs. Green, and I'll go find those things." ”

She returned the Qiu Tu Clan's coat to Xia Ming.

Xia Ming asked, "Did you see anything last night?"

"No," she said. It's just a feeling, the 'hunter's sense of smell' you said last time."

The two were pulled up by motorized crossbows.

"It was the last time I was hunting outside the north wall, and I felt like someone was watching me. ”

"Hey, hey, don't be so scary, okay... Are you sure you're right?"

"Horror?" she said indifferently. "It's all about feelings. ”

"Scared me to death, I thought there were really ghosts in the world. ”

"Diana Noe is a ghost. She said it suddenly.

Xia Ming almost fell.

"When the wooden family learned carving, there was a technique of using blood to put the finishing touch, which is said to retain the soul of the dying person. "I don't know if Diana Nuo is really a soul, she may also be a mimic of some kind of personality, in short, she is not a human being." ”

"It's better to feel ignorant .."

"Captain, can you still say a little cool talk? ”

"I don't think I can anymore. ”

The maid Sarah didn't come to him today, and Yudo didn't come, which made it impossible for him to get close to the current owner of Green's Ranch.

Rand blocked the door tightly, sheep crowed in the sheepfold, pigs crowed in the wooden house, and Xia Ming really felt the urge to set fire to the door.

So he had to pick up the barrel and go to collect the goat's milk himself.

Those creatures had cold and strange tempers, and Xia Ming was kicked several times before he managed to coax one. When he moved to the bench, rolled up his sleeves and was about to make a move, Mu Siyu somehow appeared, could it be that she had made a discovery so quickly.

was about to greet him with a smile, when a fist flew over and smashed him out, only to hear her scold fiercely, "Indecent!"

Xia Ming burst into tears in his heart.
