What do you mean by "this is a dating game"?

That's so convoluted.

What are they mumbling about?

Grapefruit was full of doubts and wanted to ask more, but the clear and eerie sound coming from behind her suppressed her curiosity.

It's the sound of wriggling and sliding.

Something walked past them. Grapefruit smelled a strong stench of decay. She instinctively looked at her toes, her gaze not daring to move an inch.

"Buzz! Buzz!"

A strange tremor sounded, and Oz's sensory wand vibrated at a high frequency, indicating that a boss-level monster was nearby.

Xiyou raised her hand to press it down, and her hand went numb from the shock!

Once the gliding sound faded into the distance, Sieg released his hand from the back of her head, and she asked, "Did the Skull-Hunting Maggot go after that Spellbreaker?"

"Not necessarily. Most likely."

Sieg turned his head.

The blood mist in front of them was slowly closing, and on the swamp a dozen meters away from them, there was a clear mark that was visible to the naked eye.

It is about five meters wide and one meter deep. It must be the giant maggot of the leader of the Fire Palace.

Grapefruit's guess is probably correct.

Sieg had foreseen this situation.

Because of the blood mist, the Lawbreaker dared not advance rashly, but he would not give up easily and would definitely use his perception ability to sense the situation inside the swamp.

The energy fluctuations of the leader of the Fire Palace were far greater than those of Sig and Xiyou.

With the added interference of the blood mist, the first thing the spellbreaker will sense will definitely be the giant maggots.

The Skull-Hunting Maggot has a unique mechanism; it is a bizarre monster that cannot be looked at or sensed.

If you don't look at it, it won't see you;

You saw it, and it saw you.

then--

"Ughhhh!"

"Hiss!"

From afar, the sounds of a struggle could be heard from the edge of the swamp.

Grapefruit turned her head and looked, saying, "They've started fighting. Should we go take a look?"

"We should look, but not now."

Sieg remained calm and composed: "Let them fight for a while, there's no rush."

"Uh-huh."

Grapefruit nodded as she pulled out a sensory wand from under the witch's robe.

hum!

hum!

The sensor wand is still vibrating.

Sieg is truly impressed.

What exactly is this person doing?

No.

What is Oz doing? Doesn't she feel ashamed to create something like this?

"Da Gen, look."

Grapefruit poked Sieg's face with its short, studded wand, and Sieg instinctively dodged.

She smiled and said, "It's true! The wands that the teacher makes really do have the ability to sense boss-level monsters."

"...Can you make it stop?"

Grapefruit looked on suspiciously, her slender fingers toying with the wand, moving it up and down: "You're acting strange. What's wrong with this wand? And what was that 'purple mood' you mentioned last time?"

"you……"

Sieg sighed, "Put it away, okay? Don't you think it's weird? Why is it vibrating?"

"Isn't vibration a bad thing? It serves as a warning, and I think that's quite obvious."

Grapefruit raised her wand and placed it behind her shoulder.

She looked pleased and added, "And it massages the trapezius muscle with quite a bit of pressure."

Sieg laughed: "Are you sure it's placed on the trapezius muscle?"

"otherwise--"

Halfway through talking about grapefruit, an idea suddenly struck him.

"what!"

She let out a surprised sound and even lifted the hem of her robe, trying to tuck the sensory wand back underneath.

What on earth is this woman trying to do?!

Sieg suddenly reached out and pressed down on Xiyou's sinful hand, watching her silently.

Grapefruit returned his gaze: "What?"

"What are you doing?!"

"I have a new idea that I'd like to try."

"Please don't do this, okay?"

"...There's no harm in giving it a try. Besides, it was you who inspired me."

Sieg really couldn't understand what Grapefruit was thinking.

He didn't know if the action she was about to take was the same one he was thinking of.

However, this kind of thing is really shameless. He wants to maintain a good social relationship with Xiyou and doesn't want to see anything too filthy, as that would greatly damage the team's atmosphere!

He said, "Stop, okay? At least stop now. Once we're out of the Sui Palace, you can do whatever you want with it."

Grapefruit asked seriously, "Where are the boss-level monsters outside the Fire Palace?"

"You can switch to a manual transmission; it'll be the same."

"...Manual ones aren't unusual, I want to try an automatic one."

I'm going to call the police!

That's ridiculous.

Sieg added, "If you keep doing this, I'm leaving the team."

"..."

Now, Xiyou became serious.

She put down her sensory wand and said, "Fine, don't play then. You're so stingy."

……

……

Nefa suddenly stopped in his tracks.

His face showed surprise. He looked up at the sky and, judging by the positions of the stars, confirmed that he was indeed heading northwest, but—

What about the cemetery?

He had reached a dead end; beneath his feet lay a precipice, beyond which stretched a dark, iron-like ocean. There was no other way out.

Where exactly is the "cemetery" that Da Gen mentioned?

Although Nefarian is a Tier 9 adventurer, he had never left the Scorched Earth before. Scarlet Fortress is a pure "Boundary Palace," and he has been there a few times in the past year, so he is not yet familiar with it.

His "alien pathway" was obtained for him by the Demon King of the East; he was only responsible for engraving the stone tablet and did not personally participate.

He had not seen the so-called "cemetery" during his previous adventures.

Nefarian, his face grim, walked along the cliff for a while and came across an adventurer's camp.

The watchman spotted him, gripped his weapon tightly, and shouted, "This is the camp of the See-Hand Blue Adventurer's Guild! Friend, what are you doing here? What business do you have in our camp?!"

Hearing the noise, the resting adventurers quickly got up.

Within thirty seconds, a dozen or so adventurers stood in a row, coldly watching Nefarian.

Nefa raised his hands to his chest and said, "I mean no harm! Friends, I'm looking for a cemetery. My friend told me there's one in the northwest. Do you know where it is?"

"You old bastard! Get out of here right now!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Where is there a cemetery in Scarlet Fortress?"

"Sir, your friend is lying to you."

Amidst the jeers, a middle-aged man stepped forward with a beaming smile.

He said, "There's no cemetery in Crimson Fortress. The creatures in this palace are mainly vampires, and secondly, carrion-eating monsters. Think about it, vampires are immortal, so what cemetery do they have? Even if there are corpses, they've been eaten clean by the carrion-eating monsters."

"Commander, why waste time talking to him?"

"I think he has ulterior motives! What 'cemetery' nonsense? Ridiculous."

Nepha was struck dumb!

There is no cemetery?

There is no cemetery?

Did Mr. Daigen misremember? Or did he say something wrong?

So now, where should Nefarian use "Rallying Call"?

In the midst of frantic thinking, an evil thought naturally arose:

"Since there's no cemetery at Crimson Fortress, why don't I just go straight to the extraction point? As long as I get out, I'll be safe! If Da Gen has anyone to blame, it's himself; he didn't explain things clearly! It's not that I didn't want to save him!"

Nephallus thought to himself.

This is perfectly normal. Even the most upright role models inevitably have a dark and selfish side.

And the moment this idea emerged.

Nefa finally understands the true intention of "Daigen"!

It's not that I remembered it wrong, nor that I said it wrong.

Dagen knew that Crimson Fortress didn't have a cemetery, and he said that on purpose.

That was part of the plan, a rhetoric used to deceive the lawbreakers.

Dagen knew that the Spellbreakers would definitely chase after them, and they would bear all the risks. He hoped that Nepha would be safe.

But why?

Why did he do that?

A lone blood moon hung overhead. Nefarian turned and looked southwest.
