The participants in the Demon King Arena are all demon kings from various planes in the multiverse world.

The composition of these people is very complex, but because the way the Demon King System gains fame is to make big news, there are many very inhumane people among them.

Therefore, you must be careful when coming into contact with other demon kings. You don't know if you are meeting a murderer.

Especially the mage profession.

Most mages have a strong curiosity, and in order to satisfy this curiosity, they usually leave law and morality behind.

There are so many spellcasters with eccentric personalities, and many crazy things are considered normal by mages, such as conducting personal experiments and so on.

I thought there was hope of escaping from the pursuers, but now it turned out that there was a wolf in front of me and a tiger in the back.

The man who jumped from the cliff was also wearing a heavy cloak. Philfie could only see the tight lips under the shadow of the hood and could not judge his appearance.

Under the influence of the spell, it fell as lightly as a fallen leaf next to the broken body of the gargoyle. Then Philfie saw him squatting down and checking the gargoyle's condition.

With your back turned, this is a good opportunity.

It's not that Philuffy wants to make a sneak attack, because in the hunting ground of the deceiver, it is best to avoid meaningless battles. Not only will this waste precious magic and physical strength, but too much movement will also attract the attention of monsters or other demon kings.

.

Philuffy wanted to go around while the other person's back was turned to her, but it was obvious that Philuffy still had not given up her intention to climb up the cliff.

Fairy dust can provide invisibility. Although there are still soft dead branches and leaves under your feet, you can still get around it as long as your movements are small enough and don't make a sound.

Philuffy raised her staff to avoid making any noise when the staff collided with her. At the same time, she was on alert. When any danger came, she could use spells to counterattack as soon as possible.

Just like this, he carefully maintained his invisible state and moved out of the dead wood forest step by step. When he stood on the rocky beach with his feet, Philuffy knew that he had already succeeded halfway.

But in order to get out of the dead wood forest as quickly as possible, Philuffy had to take the shortest route in a straight line. As a result, the distance was shortened.

It doesn't matter, he probably didn't notice me.

Comforting herself in her heart, Philuffy didn't even dare to look with her eyes, because some people are very sensitive to sight.

Step by step, the distance quickly narrowed to within 20 meters. Just when Philphy was about to turn around, a strong sense of crisis suddenly enveloped his whole body, like a rabbit being stared at by a snake.

I couldn't help but let my body tremble a little.

Turning her eyes, Philuffy saw the man squatting next to the gargoyle slightly raising his right hand, and on his pale fingertips, a dark shadow seemed to be moving...

Has it been discovered?

Looking up, a translucent sphere almost submerged in the air appeared there. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't have noticed it at all.

Secret eye!

Under the gaze of the arcane eyes, ordinary invisibility would be meaningless. Philphie would probably be noticed as soon as he appeared. If he got any closer, he would probably enter the range of a certain spell, thus incurring a spell strike.

Although he used the sonic spell that gargoyles are most afraid of, someone who can easily defeat gargoyles is obviously not an easy being to deal with.

"Please wait! I mean no harm!"

In order to show that she had no ill intentions, Philuffy immediately lifted the fairy dust and reached out to take off her hood:

"I'm just passing by, and I don't mean to be an enemy to you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Philuffy saw the shadow on the man's fingertips recede, and he also lifted his hood:

"Philphy?"

"Are you... Atlas?"

Philuffy was relieved to meet someone she knew.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

Pei Renli always chooses spells based on the concept of enriching his attack surface as much as possible without leaving any shortcomings.

Although he learns spells quickly, spells are not just learned, they also require a lot of practice.

The effect of each spell, the time required to weave the runes, the time the spell takes effect, the spell consumption, and other details must be mastered. In addition, in order to ensure that the wrong runes are not written in an emergency, the spells must be practiced until they are thoroughly familiar.

This also led to Pei Renli being crazy all the time. Every morning when he got up, he was worried about the hair falling off on the pillow...

However, the liver explosion is not meaningless, and thanks to the liver explosion, Pei Renli has an advantage at this time.

The Mystical Eye noticed someone approaching from the very beginning and did not launch an attack once it entered the 30-meter range of most spells. This was because Pei Renli did not want to fight an unnecessary battle, and he did not feel the danger from the approaching person.

to malicious intent.

Otherwise, Philuffy will be beaten as soon as she shows up.

Until Philuffy got too close, the distance of 20 meters was enough for a very fast guy to charge close to him, so Perrenli secretly prepared to activate the spell. If Philuffy hadn't spoken quickly, he would have thrown the spell away.

Of course you will feel relieved when you meet someone you know and someone you have shared hardships with. Although this guy still makes Pei Renli very confused about his gender.

"Suddenly it feels like we haven't seen each other for a long time."

"Actually, it has only been more than a month, which is not a long time."

Philuffy said as she was about to get closer, she suddenly noticed that one of Perrenli's hands was hanging down. Although the palm was invisible due to being blocked by his sleeve, it was probably a gesture of casting a spell.

In the fraudster's hunting ground, cooperation with other people does have great advantages. After all, the non-target number plate only has one point, which is dispensable compared with the increase in combat power brought by cooperation.

But the problem is that everyone knows to hide their number plates. Before you meet a person, you don't know whether he is your target or whether you are his target.

Philuffy was not stupid and immediately understood Perrenli's warning.

If no concessions are made, the situation will not change.

So Philuffy immediately reached out and grabbed the scroll and unfolded it:

"My goal is number 15."

The magic numbers displayed on the scroll are also the same as Philuffy said.

It turns out that the scroll was made unforgeable in order to gain initial trust among the demon kings.

Thinking of this, Perenli also reached out and took out the scroll, injected magic power into it and showed it to Philuffy. This move would let Philuffy know whether Perenli's target was him.

Upon seeing this, the latter patted his chest and took out his number plate:

"I'm not your target."

The number plate says '77'.

Perrenli also took out his number plate and showed it to Philuffy, which completely relaxed the tense atmosphere between the two parties.

Philuffy took a few steps closer:

"Is this gargoyle a monster mentioned in the hunting grounds rules?"

"Yeah, but there's a problem."

Pei Renli pushed aside the gravel blocking the road and approached:

"I discovered that not all monsters have number tags."

According to the rules, you can get number plate No. 0 by killing monsters, which is equivalent to 1 point. If you think about it this way, there is no need to play this deadly hunting game with other demon kings. You can simply become a monster hunter and use your arcane eyes to search for traces of monsters and kill them.

Ten will do.

But not every monster will 'explode' a number plate, which makes it difficult to win.

What's more, monsters are not easy to find.

Pei Renli felt that most monsters were probably gargoyles who were very good at hiding and camouflaging.

The name "The Trickster's Hunting Ground" refers to the fact that the demon king is both a hunter and prey at the same time, and on the other hand, it refers to the fact that these monsters all belong to the "Trickster".

"I only found some loot on the gargoyle, which is better than nothing. It seems that it is more appropriate to aim at the target number plate."

The so-called trophy is actually a piece of material called 'Gargoyle Heart'.

A gargoyle is a statue activated by magic. It is somewhat similar to a golem made by alchemy. The difference is the existence of the heart of the gargoyle. This thing can be used as an alchemy material, but it is not too rare. There are too many

Many other materials can be substituted.

"By the way, do you know where the end point is?"

"No, I just walked out of the woods, and I haven't seen anything that looks like the end."

The rules state that it ends when you collect 20 points and cross the finish line, so of course the location of the finish line is also important.

What's more, Pei Renli knew with his butt that someone would definitely be ambushing him near the finish line. After all, it was better to wait near the finish line and wait for work than to run around looking for him.

"According to the notes, there are many different landforms in the fraudster's hunting ground. Sometimes the surrounding environment will change significantly as you walk. The end point is usually marked with eye-catching marks, but the location is different every time.

.”

Compared to the tyrannical Demon King who left almost no information to Perenli, Philuffy had the notes of the previous Demon King in her hand and knew more than Perenli.

This sentence is not just a simple chat. After Philfie said it, she stretched out her hand:

"Let's cooperate. I think whether it's to gain points by killing monsters or to protect ourselves, cooperation should have more advantages."

If Perrenli showed his fighting ability to easily deal with the gargoyles, and Philfield showed his understanding of the venue, the so-called cooperation should be on an equal footing, otherwise it will be very unstable.

Perrenli thought about it for a moment and agreed to Phil Fei's suggestion.

After all, the two of them share the same sorrow, and their goals are different, so there is no conflict of interest. Compared with cooperating with other people who have never met at all, it is more reliable to work with Philuffy.

Seeing that Perrenli agreed, Philuffy's expression completely relaxed and she said with a soft smile:

"Atlas, you have changed so much that I almost didn't recognize you at first. I didn't see you in the Demon King Arena last time, so I thought I might meet you this time."

"Last time?"

"Yes, even though it wasn't my turn to participate in the battle, I was in the audience watching the battle during the Demon King's Arena."

Philuffy said doubtfully:

"What's wrong with this?"

Pei Renli always thought that he would be thrown into the Demon King Arena when it was his turn, but think about it, every time the Demon King Arena starts, not all the Demon King are thrown in, most of the Demon King are there.

Watching a play in the auditorium.

Philuffy has been to the Demon King's Arena three times in total, the first time was the Terror Castle, the second time was watching the battle in the stands, and the third time was this time the trickster's hunting ground.

But Perrenli has only been to the Demon King Arena twice, including the Castle of Horror, and each time he was a participant, not an audience.

I have a problem, why is my Demon King system different from others?

I wanted to ask Philuffy what she thought, but even though the two of them had established initial trust, they were still strangers who had met once, and it might be detrimental to them to ask these questions rashly.

"No, it's nothing..."

Halfway through her words, Philuffy saw Perrenli covering one of his eyes and reestablishing visual connection with the mystical eye.
