On the other side of the cave, Perenli certainly didn't know what Dürer was thinking, and he didn't even have time to look back.

Large pieces of gravel fell from behind, as if chasing them, and smoke quickly filled the narrow cave, making it difficult to continue breathing.

The two of them had to hold their heads with their hands and lower their bodies, running as fast as possible in this posture. For a time, Pei Renli thought that he would be buried alive.

Fortunately, Philuffy was very measured in her actions. The Chaos Arrow only collapsed the cave seven or eight meters away from the entrance. Besides, the speed of the collapse, which was relatively fast at the beginning, immediately slowed down within a few seconds.

The cave itself was not long. The two of them touched the cave wall and turned a slight corner. A hazy light in the smoke appeared in front of them.

"The exit is ahead! I see the light!"

Phil Fei's words shocked Pei Renli.

Although in a short period of time Pei Renli formulated a plan to fight if he could, and to use circuitous terrain if he couldn't, and even arranged an escape route. But the time was too short after all, and Pei Renli was not sure about this plan that ran through the mountains from the sky.

Are the caves connected? If not, Perrenli and Philuffy will have to find a way to dig out again.

They quickly broke out of the cave, the sun shone on them again, and the fresh air poured into their noses. They suddenly felt like they were alive again, especially since the cave they came out of was emitting a lot of smoke like a chimney.

Pei Renli propped up his body with his staff, ignoring the disgrace and planning to touch a bottle of healing potion first.

Although there was nothing wrong with the plan, there was one variable that could not be taken into account, and that was Dürer's intensity, which far exceeded Perrenli's expectations.

This resulted in that although he had no serious injuries such as fractures, he had numerous scratches and bruises and felt pain everywhere in his body.

Just when he touched the potion package, he sensed a sharp reminder of danger. Pei Renli immediately gave up the potion without hesitation and directly took out a scroll. Due to the emergency situation, he didn't even know what he was taking out.

What kind of magic scroll is it? Let’s use it first.

Facing the direction of the source of the sense of crisis, about to crush the fire seal of the scroll, Pei Renli saw a creature that could hardly be called a human standing behind Philphy.

The whole body is covered with a layer of thick black leather with a hint of dark green, which looks like crocodile skin. He is over two meters tall. When standing next to Phil Fei, who is shorter than Perrenli, the latter looks like a junior high school student.

The torso, which was strong and covered with many bones and food, was covered with a breastplate that was easy to move, and was also specially painted black. A scimitar, also painted black, was stuck around Philuffy's neck.

It looks like a reptile's head is inlaid on this tall painting, and the corners of its slightly opened mouth reveal razor-sharp teeth. The overall look is like a human-shaped lizard.

These are lizard people. They mainly live in humid and rarely inhabited places such as swamps or wetlands. Although they are also intelligent races, they rarely interact with other people. The most contact with other intelligent races is when they lack

When he ran to the trade route and plundered the caravan with little food and clothing.

Over time, the reputation of lizardmen has become so bad that almost all cities have banned lizardmen from entering. In many places, lizardmen's heads are even exchanged for bounties.

Lizardmen are tall, but they move very quickly. Their physiques are much better than humans. The stagnant water full of duckweed is considered drinkable by them. They have high resistance to diseases and toxins, and they are also very resistant to diseases and toxins.

Born with leather armor.

The shortcoming is that the lizardmen are incapable of magic. Although there may be druids among them, there are unlikely to be mages. Moreover, the lizardmen are easily blinded by magic, and they will also have outstanding effects when attacked by magic.

After quickly going over the lizard man's information in his mind, the lizard man holding Philuffy hostage said:

"I can guarantee that I'll slit your throat before you can even recite a spell."

Although the lizard people speak in common language, they have a strong accent. To put it bluntly, it sounds like a snake-like hissing sound. This is because the lizard people do not have soft cheeks, which causes the speech to leak.

Now that she was discovered, Philuffy had no choice but to slowly loosen her fingers holding the seal.

This sentence was not only said to Phil Fei, but also to Perenli. Under his gaze, Perenli had no choice but to slowly put down the scroll.

This lizard man pushed Perenli down the stairs in the Castle of Horror, and he was also the one who kicked him on the crumbling wall. If not for the perfect timing, Perenli and Philuffy would have become literal scum by now.

"Don't look at me like that. I'm really surprised that you are still alive."

Perenli recognized him, and of course the other party also recognized Perenli and Phil Fei.

The amber snake-like pupils moved downward slightly and looked at the number plate in Philuffy's hand:

"I followed you all the way, and I planned to find an opportunity to strike, but I didn't expect you to dare to steal Duler's number plate. He is one of the strongest among the new Demon Kings."

Pei Renli said in a deep voice:

"Stop talking nonsense, what is your purpose?"

"Of course it's also a number plate."

Pei Renli narrowed his eyes. People who are familiar with him will know that this is a small action that Pei Renli makes when he is unhappy.

"Aren't you afraid of retaliation for doing this?"

"Revenge? If I, Shadow Kent, were afraid of revenge, I wouldn't be alive now."

Kent said, pressing his claws with sharp nails against Philuffy's waist. He knew very well the weaknesses of human beings, whether it was damage to the neck or liver or kidneys. If there was no skilled priest to rescue at the scene, Philphy could just take action.

It's dead.

"It's just a number plate. It's only worth one point to you. It's not a price that cannot be paid. If you exchange it for an ally, don't you think it's a good deal?"

There is a saying that Pei Renli does not mind exchanging unused number plates with other demon kings for something, but he does not like to be coerced.

But the lizard man is right about one thing, allies are indeed more important than number plates.

The Demon King's Arena is not just a one-time event. If Perrenli and Philuffy are thrown into the situation again, having someone they can trust to help will definitely be a big help.

It can be seen from the other demon kings Pei Renli met that most of them chose to join forces, either in twos or threes, or in groups of three or five, and few walked alone.

It was said that Pei Renli and Kent were at war with each other, but Philuffy, who was being used as a bargaining chip, had a calm expression on her face, not showing any fear at all, and she didn't know whether she was really arrogant or had something to rely on.

Looking at Philuffy, his eyes were still calm, and Pei Renli could only say:

"What's the date?"

"No. 6, don't tell me that you don't have it. This is the information I got kindly from the mouths of the warm-blooded females who call themselves the Demon Lord Three Stars. And I'm sure they told the truth."

The lizard man opened the corners of his mouth slightly and seemed to be smiling, but the lizard face felt even more ferocious.

"Trust me, you don't want to know the details."

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

Pei Renli poked hard, inserted the staff into the soft soil, and kept his eyes on the lizard man. He slowly squatted down and untied his backpack and placed it in front of him.

He put his hands into his backpack, as if looking for something, and the sharp-eyed lizard man immediately saw a string of dim magical lights emerging from the backpack.

"Don't try any tricks!"

The sharp scimitar left a bloody mark on Philuffy's fair neck, and the threat was clear.

Pei Renli didn't answer at all. The next moment, he saw a dark shadow explode in front of him, like a balloon that was inflated and popped quickly. Several number plates fell out of thin air and fell into his backpack.

Kent recognized that it was the Magic Box of Shadow, and the aura he just saw was probably the one that dispelled the spell and made the number plate visible.

Then he saw Pei Renli take out a number plate with the number six written on it.

"Give it to me and I promise to free your allies."

"I don't believe a word of your promise."

"So, this means the negotiations have broken down?"

Pei Renli picked up the staff beside him and put the number plate on the head of the staff:

"You can try, I will destroy it as soon as possible."

Although you can feel a weak magic attached to these number plates, they are made of pure wood. Let alone using magic to attack them, even if you break them with a lot of strength, they will probably break.

Philuffy was kidnapped and Pei Renli threw a bullet, but this did not mean that Kent had an absolute advantage.

The lizard man is afraid of magic damage. It just so happens that both Philuffy and Perrenli are mages, and he saw the battle between Perenli and Du Le with his own eyes.

Asking yourself, even though I am fast-moving, I could not last more than a few battles with Du Le, but Perenli not only managed to survive, but also took the opportunity to steal the number plate. This in itself shows that Perenli is not weak at all.

If it was a sneak attack, Kent would be very sure of winning, but if they were to fight face to face, it would be very uncertain.

In other words, Philfield is not only a bargaining chip, but also a talisman.

The atmosphere fell into a solid silence for a moment. The two sides looked at each other without hesitation for several seconds before Kent relaxed and said:

"What do you want to do?"

Pei Renli picked up his backpack again, threw the number plate on the ground, and trampled it under his feet:

"I will move 5 meters away from the number plate. You and Philuffy will also move 5 meters away. Then you let go of Philfield and return to the original position. When the two of us meet, you go and get the number plate."

For Kent, this distance is not much different from being close to him. If Perrenli wants to cheat, Kent will immediately regain control of Philuffy.

Moreover, the distance effectively ensured Pei Renli's safety. The chance of keeping Kent was slim, but he could protect himself.

So after thinking about it for a while, Kent agreed.

Both sides were nervously watching each other's every move. In order to avoid unnecessary stimulation, no one made any large movements, which made it look rather slow.

When he reached the position, Kent let go of Philuffy and moved back to the original position step by step.

Perrenli nodded towards Philuffy and motioned to come over.

Both sides were moving forward at the same time, but Philuffy was walking towards Perenli, while Kent was aiming at the number plate.

The exchange went smoothly, after all, everyone has their own concerns. As soon as Philfie stood next to Perrenli, Kent also picked up the number plate.

"Chaos Arrow!"

Feeling safe, Philuffy turned around and raised her staff without hesitation.

But of course Kent also expected to be attacked by spells. The Chaos Arrow missed the target and made a shallow pit on the ground. The tall lizard man swayed and quickly disappeared into the shadows created by the woods.

"Save it, you can't catch him."

Perrenli stopped Philuffy from chasing, raised his head and drank the healing potion.

Despite Pei Renli's strong performance just now, in fact he has no confidence in his heart.

It would be extremely difficult to find him in the vast woods for a guy who didn't even notice the secret eye or the voyeuristic eye, and even sensed the danger before taking action without any warning.

What's more, this grandson moves extremely quickly, and this kind of enemy is the Achilles heel of rune magic.

Pei Renli has few scrolls left, and his magic power has been consumed in the continuous battles. He only has potions that are not used much. The only effective trump card is that the magic power in the magic storage ring is not used yet. So he can use a number.

A peaceful resolution is indeed the best outcome.

"I'll make him pay the price next time!"

After all, it was Philuffy who had a knife held to his neck. Can you put it aside for now? You must say harsh words.

However, Pei Renli’s education from an early age taught him that it is bullshit to say that suffering a loss is a blessing, so he said:

"I never wait for next time."

Philuffy showed a puzzled expression, thinking that Perenli was just talking angrily.

"Didn't you stop me from catching up?"

Pei Renli didn't explain, he just picked up the staff and left:

"Come with me, we should be able to watch a good show."
