After the news that the holy relics could be used to deal with the monster was confirmed, the lifeless camp finally regained some vitality. Everyone began to pack their belongings and set off for the inner city. They agreed to meet at the central square of the inner city seven days later.
Lolo and the rest also followed the others on their journey to collect the holy relics. In fact, when most people chose to move out, no one was willing to stay in the camp. After what happened that night, everyone knew that the monster had its eyes on this place. Originally, they could rely on their numbers to give each other a sense of security, but now that they didn't even have the advantage of numbers, they would only be waiting for death if they stayed.
Harris sighed. He didn't know if his decision was right or wrong. If Xavier could recover before the monster did, then everyone would undoubtedly be wiser to stay in the camp. However, if the monster recovered first, then everyone would spread out into the inner city to buy more time.
However, when the students came to find him, the old man realized that he actually had no other choice. Faced with the spreading panic in the camp, Lolo's suggestion was practically the only chance for everyone to unite.
"So after we collect the five holy relics, we will have a chance to deal with the monster?" The girl carried a backpack filled with food and water, still walking at the front of the team.
"I don't know." In the end, Luo Bu's reply caused the other three members of the team to stagger and almost fall to the ground.
"Hmm? Didn't I say it clearly before? This is just to calm everyone down and bring hope to everyone. As for whether the five holy relics really came from the church, no one can be sure until they see them, "the future Supreme Magister Your Honor said calmly.
"Uh, then have you thought about this problem? What if after finding the holy relics, they realize that they are useless …" Genji cautiously reminded.
"Oh, that's something that will happen in seven days. At least in these seven days, everyone will be able to pull themselves together," the magister said calmly. "And now everyone knows that the source of the news is from Caesar."
"I knew it," Fatso smiled bitterly.
"Actually, you guys don't have to be too pessimistic. The appearance of a monster in the freshmen arena is a completely unexpected event. Logically speaking, the school wouldn't have been able to predict it in advance, but that doesn't mean that no one else knew about it." Rob paused for a moment before continuing, "I had a brief conversation with Caesar just now. He admitted that he had already obtained a copy of the rules of the freshmen competition through some small means before the start of the competition. He remembered very clearly that there was no mention of the five sacred artifacts in it, which means that the rules were changed the night before the competition started. Therefore, it is very likely that the five sacred artifacts were added to the competition at the last minute. If that is the case, then there is at least an 80% chance that the five sacred artifacts were added to the competition to deal with the monster in the freshmen arena."
Genie was astonished. "Is there such a powerful person in our school? He can change the rules of the tournament the night before and send five Sacred Weapons into the Dungeon? Wait, what's with your expressions … Am I the only one who doesn't know that there's such a guy in the school? " Fatso noticed that apart from himself, Lolo and Jenny did not seem to be too surprised when they heard this.
Genie said with a bitter expression, "Are you kidding me? Aren't you guys going to tell me anything? Aren't we all friends? "
"It's precisely because we're all friends that we chose not to tell you some things that might bring about danger. Of course, if you really want to know, I can also share all the information we have with you right now," Rob said leisurely.
"Forget it. I think the current situation is pretty good." Genie patted someone's shoulder. "If there's anything else I can help with, don't hesitate to ask."
… …
The four of them continued venturing deeper into the inner city for the entire morning. Even when there were no signs of other teams around them, Rob still did not seem to have any intention of stopping. Jenny finally held back her words and said weakly, "That … Aren't we here to search for the sacred artifacts? But we haven't searched a single place along the way. Is this really okay? "
"Oh, you're talking about that. Isn't there still that group of people behind us? They will search most of the buildings in the inner city," Rob replied.
"Eh, then what's our objective this time?"
"Our objective is to search for places that are easily overlooked." Rob took out the map and glanced at it. The map in his hands was very different from when they first entered the Dungeon. The traps, treasure chests, and the activity range of the Magical Beasts were all marked out. This was because Teacher Harris had contributed his judge's map. That map was originally forbidden from being shown to the contestants, but now that the situation was special, no one cared about such a trivial matter.
"We're less than half a mile away from the first suspicious location. Everyone better get ready for battle."
Genji came over and said, "Is there something strange about this place? Why can't I see anything?" The place marked on the map looked like a warehouse, but it was already empty. Now, it was occupied by a Black Hump Camel. It was different from ordinary camels. Black Hump Camels were more aggressive among the tier-one Magical Beasts. They would attack any creature that stepped into their territory without any warning.
Fatso looked around for a long time but did not find anything suspicious about this place. In reality, there was no need to enter the warehouse. As long as they chose a vantage point outside, they would be able to see everything inside. There was nothing that looked like a sacred artifact.
"What I wanted to see was not this warehouse, but the Black Hump Camel inside. Magical beasts like Black Hump Camels, other than mastering tier-one Fire Magic, are famous for having a very diverse diet. They basically eat anything, so their digestive system is very strong. They also have a stomach that can be said to be made of iron. Black Hump Camels are often cut open after they die, and strange things like rocks and boots are found in their stomachs."
"Ha, are you suspecting that the sacred artifact might have been swallowed by this big fellow?" Genji was very skeptical. "That's too ridiculous. Would anyone do something like hiding a sacred artifact in the stomach of a Black Hump Camel?"
