In the Snake Shadow Society, in addition to the Earth Ghosts, there are an unknown number of top-level cadres, middle-level cadres and lower-level cadres.
According to Heloise's current strength, he can't even be a low-level cadre and can only be a reserve cadre.
"Don't worry too much, Heloise. Since the Earth Ghost is using the Tiger People to do things, he won't do anything to them in the short term."
Fike touched Heloise's head. Incredibly, as long as he touched her head like this, Heloise's restless heart would calm down.
"What we need to do now is to become stronger as quickly as possible. To do this, we need to first cure the 'parasitic blood snake' in you, and then strive to conquer the maze and gain new power."
After listening to Feike's calm analysis, Heloise felt much better. She admired Feike for being able to maintain such a calm attitude at all times.
——(But… if only you could be a little less calm when examining me…)

In the wasteland about twenty kilometers away from the town of Dris, a vulture stood quietly.
It has been waiting here for almost an hour.
Obviously, it is not an ordinary vulture. The reason why it behaves so strangely is that it is currently being controlled by a being called "Sky Demon".
Another half an hour passed, and Tiangui finally heard the voice he had been waiting for for so long.
"Not bad, you are a man who keeps his promises." (Demon language)
A light voice came from behind Tiangui. He turned around and found that a ball of black mist had appeared behind him at some point.
The black fog seemed to have life, floating above the ground, neither dispersing nor drifting away, and sounds continued to come out of the black fog.
"This vulture isn't your body, is it? This is truly as powerful as the rumors say, Master Tiangui."
"You're the real deal, Kuchi. You're not called the 'Invisible Assassin' for nothing."
Until the black fog appeared, the Sky Ghost kept scanning the surroundings.
In this vast wasteland, with the bird's 270-degree vision, it should be impossible for it to suddenly appear behind the Sky Ghost, but this group of black fog named "Kuchi" did it.
And this is exactly what the Heavenly Ghost wants.
"Invisible Assassin Kuchi", he is the top killer among the demons.
The reason why Kuchi ranks first is not because of how powerful he is, but because his killing method is almost impossible to defend against. Not only does he not reveal his murderous intent, but he also does not leave any traces.
Those killed by Kuchi were often strangled by the throat and covered with their chests, as if they died of a sudden illness.
Tiangui contacted Kuchi through an informant and agreed to meet here.
Tiangui arrived half an hour earlier than the agreed time, and then waited for a full hour and a half.
Assuming that Kuchi arrived on time, he deliberately observed the Sky Ghost for an hour and only showed up to talk to the Sky Ghost after confirming that it was safe.
Such a cautious and defenseless killer is exactly what Tiangui needs.
If Kuchi hadn't always been a maverick, Tiangui would really want to recruit him.
"Okay, let's get to the point, Lord Tiangui. What does the person you want to kill look like?"
"It looks like this, remember it."
The Sky Ghost controlled the vulture's body and used its claws to draw the image of a stern young man on the ground.
"He used to have black hair, but now he's dyed it brown, so don't let the color fool you."
"clear."
"As I said before, this guy named 'Banning' or 'Fiche' is currently staying in Dris Town. My birds are keeping an eye on him. If he leaves, I will contact your informant again."
"clear."
"You decide the time of the kill. The sooner the better."
"clear."
Kuchi showed great professionalism and carefully wrote down his employer's words. Then, when "Tiangui" finished speaking, Kuchi had only one thing to confirm with him.
"Master Tiangui, let me confirm with you one last time. This time, our target is a combat profession below level three, right? My rule is not to accept orders above level three."
"Don't worry, Kuchi, I've confirmed that he's only at level two at most."
"Okay, then wait for the good news."
As he finished speaking, the black fog suddenly became transparent in an instant and completely disappeared before Tiangui's eyes.
The Sky Ghost looked around in disbelief, flapped its wings and wandered around, but could not find any trace of Kuchi's departure.
He secretly marveled in his heart that the "Invisible Assassin Kuchi" really lived up to his reputation.
——(Banning, tomorrow is your death.)
——(Sorry, Earth Ghost, this time the credit... belongs to me.)

6.72 - Maze Instructor
Summer afternoons are particularly hot and humid, and usually people don't go out unless they have something to do.
But this afternoon, the Task Union in Driss Town was particularly lively.
This is because the instructor in charge of forming the "Maze Subjugation Team" has arrived.
Among all the towns, the town of Driss is relatively marginal, and people living here often do not have the opportunity to meet those famous people.
But this time, as the "Maze - Green Ghost Lair" was designated as a maze that must be conquered by the Green Lizard Lord, the strong men from all the towns in the Green Lizard Family's territory will arrive in Dris Town one after another.
The people of Dris Town never thought that this broken maze that produced neither mines nor food could actually bring them some good things.
In order to increase the success rate of conquering the maze, the king of the Kingdom of West established the position of "Maze Instructor". Whenever a lord is ordered to form a maze conquering team, the royal family will assign an "instructor" to go to the corresponding lord's territory to provide guidance.
Just this afternoon, the Maze Instructor arrived in the town of Driss in a royal carriage.
As soon as the townspeople saw the royal family's luxurious carriage, they all put down what they were doing and rushed to the streets to welcome the maze instructor.
Amid the people's welcome, the royal carriage drove all the way to the door of the Mission Union before stopping. Then, the door of the carriage slowly opened.
Before the people inside came out, the townspeople saw a translucent white mist overflowing from the bottom of the carriage, and everyone touched by the mist shivered with cold.
"What the hell, isn't it summer now? Why is it suddenly so cold?!"
People were wondering when a tall snow-white hat popped out from the carriage first. Then, a tall lady in a white fur coat and black leather high-heeled boots got off the carriage in a very imposing manner.
Her appearance made time at the scene seem to stand still, and all the focus was on her.
As the lady walked, her long gray hair and the gold-edged dress swayed back and forth, and her emerald green eyes emitted a sharp gaze under her thick eyelashes.
No one was surprised by the lady's thick clothing, because since she got off the carriage, everyone standing around her was shivering with cold!
However, in order to see a few more glances at this lady's stunning appearance, the surrounding townspeople felt that it was worth it even if they froze to death today!
"Oh my god! Is this the 'Maze Instructor'? This is so beautiful!"
"If I had known earlier, I would have signed up. I wonder if it's too late now?!"
"Does anyone know her name?"
Even though the townspeople were shivering with cold, they still discussed the matter excitedly. However, this lady completely ignored everyone's discussions and walked straight towards the door of the Task Union.
At the door, Branch Chief Pame had been standing there waiting for a long time.
"Welcome, Lady Ice Star Shirley."
Facing the warm welcome from the head of the Pame branch, the lady known as "Ice Star Shirley" simply nodded indifferently and walked straight into the mission union.
Branch Chief Pame was not displeased by the neglect and immediately followed him in. As for the townspeople watching outside, they did not have the courage to enter the mission union at this time.
However, the onlookers did not disperse immediately, but continued to discuss heatedly.
"So it's 'Ice Star Shirley'. I've always heard her name, but this is the first time I've seen her in person!"
"What? Do you know her? Tell me!"
"Tsk, you country bumpkins, you don't even know 'Ice Star Shirley'? She's the Ice Valkyrie who's made great achievements on the front lines these past two years!"
"Ah, now that you mention it, I remember. Isn't it the one who was abandoned by the Snow Deer family because of his lack of talent, but then shone brightly under the royal family..."
"Hush! How dare you say such a thing here? Are you going to kill yourself by gossiping?"
"..."
·
At this time, in the mission union, there was no one else except Branch Chief Pame and Ice Star Shirley.
For those low-level reward hunters, if they were locked in the same room with Ice Star Shirley, they would really be frozen to death.
Early this morning, Branch Chief Pame received news that the "Maze Instructor" would arrive in the afternoon, but he never thought that the royal family would be willing to send Ice Star Shirley over.
This shows that the royal family is determined to conquer the "Maze: Green Ghost Lair".
——(But why is this ordinary maze, which was abandoned for a long time... now being taken seriously again?)
Branch Minister Pame had some doubts in her heart, but facing the powerful aura of Ice Star Shirley, she did not dare to ask unnecessary questions, but just answered every question she asked seriously.
"There are currently five members of the maze subjugation team that have arrived in Dris Town. They are..."
"That's fine, no need to tell me in so much detail."
Ice Star Shirley's style is quite decisive. If you close your eyes, Branch Minister Pame can't even sense a trace of feminine aura from her, which makes her secretly sigh that it is such a waste of such a good-looking face.
"Chief Pame, go gather all the people who have arrived. I'll be waiting here."
Ice Star Shirley's words carried unquestionable pressure. After hearing this, Branch Chief Pame immediately stood up and went out to look for someone, not daring to delay for a moment.
·
Fifteen minutes later, Pride, captain of the cavalry and one of the representatives of Cuilin City, was the first to enter the mission union.
What caught his eye was a beautiful ice-cold girl sitting on a bench with her eyes closed and resting.
However, Pride did not dare to approach at all, because he knew that this beauty was the famous Ice Star Shirley;
Secondly, he could feel the biting cold, as if if he took another step closer... ice spikes would appear out of nowhere and pierce him.
·
Thirty minutes later, Barber, the representative of Medison Town, entered the Mission Union with his men. These noisy men only made noise for five seconds and then fell silent because they all became harmless ice sculptures.
Babol didn't dare to get angry at all when he saw this, because he found that the Silver Heavy Chariot Pride, whom he respected, was actually huddled in a corner in an orderly manner, not daring to move.
·
Forty minutes later, the representative from Goode Town also arrived, and he quickly became a new member of the "Terrifying in the Corner Group."
·
Fifty minutes later, Branch Chief Pame arrived at the Task Union with the last two people. When the three of them entered, they first saw a row of ice sculptures of little hooligans, then saw Ice Star Shirley who was sleeping while sitting, and finally saw the other three members of the Maze Expedition Team with a layer of frost on their bodies.
They were huddled together to keep warm and hadn't noticed that Branch Chief Pame and the others had returned.
(This is outrageous...)
Jiang Ran sighed not because of how terribly cold these three people were, but because he saw the level of this maze instructor.
This was the first time Jiang Ran saw a human with a combat professional level exceeding 100.
6.73 - Shirley's Speech (Part )
"Lady Ice Star Shirley, all members of the expeditionary force that have arrived in Dris Town have arrived."
Branch Chief Pame walked in front of Ice Star Shirley, and this "feat" made Babol and others change their views of her.
