The camp was attacked, and the map was taken away. This was an ominous sign. Hailig had lived here for more than ten years, and this was the first time he encountered something like this.
Killing and interrogating were not things that would normally happen between hunters. Even if there were always people that they disliked in social life, hunters had a wide range of activities. As long as they were careful, hunters might not even meet each other once a year.
Therefore, this should not be a premeditated revenge. And there were no benefits. Hunters who could come to the second level, as long as they could live until retirement, would have a very comfortable life. They would not have to worry about material things, and they would have a high prestige in the tribe. No one was willing to give up this and do something stupid.
Hailig, who was squatting at the entrance of the camp, frowned. He sighed, and his heart could not calm down.
Chestnut felt his emotions and suddenly licked his face. A warm and itchy feeling came, and Hailig instinctively pushed it away.
"Yes, I'm scared."
Hailig said to himself.
"Oh, that, that's really … uh, you know, that's too bad."
Suddenly, a voice that he hated was heard. It was the shadowless cat sitting on top of his head that spoke human language.
"Shut up, I'm not talking to you."
Hailig said coldly. Then he stood up and looked at it with a murderous and disgusted look.
"The hive hunters are coming. If you continue to stay here, I can guarantee that they will choose to kill you first."
Hearing this, Mr. Rabbit's ears immediately trembled. He shrank back and quickly stood up.
"Oh! Oh! Okay, then I'll hide. Uh, I mean, I'll go walk around. "
Then he patted his butt and strode out.
It was a Hybrid Demon.
Hailig reminded in his heart. This was a cunning Hybrid Demon named Shadowless Cat, but it could talk and communicate, which often made him forget that it was a Hybrid Demon.
This was a very dangerous thing. After all, it was a Hybrid Demon. Only it knew what it wanted to do.
"I'll go hide too."
The human girl sitting not far away suddenly said. She patted her butt and stood up.
"At least it'll save some trouble."
"Alright, be careful. The prisoner might still be wandering around nearby. If you encounter any situation, you must shout for help."
In the past, Hailig wouldn't have agreed. But now, he was annoyed by these questions.
Just then, Mr. Rabbit, who had walked far away, raised his fist in protest and shouted, "This is not fair!"
Neither of them paid any attention to it. Soon, Linna and Mr. Rabbit's figures disappeared from Helig's sight, and he could not detect their auras. While waiting, Helig could not help but wonder if they had already left. However, if he noticed it, it would be dangerous. The investigation team sent by the Beehive was made up of elite hunters. They were almost the strongest hunters.
Unfortunately, Hailig could not be ranked among them. According to the ranking of the power pyramid, Hailig was at most at the second level. The most powerful hunters were the group of people called the Guardian Bees.
No, they were not ordinary demons. They were all monsters. They possessed strength and talent that ordinary people did not have.
Sitting in front of the camp, Hailig was nervous because of how difficult the situation was. Also, he had to make contact with the monsters and prove his innocence. As the first hunter to discover the crime scene, he had to prove his innocence.
Three hours after he discovered the attack on the camp, they came.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of Hailig, about five or six meters away. When Hailig noticed it, the figure was already there.
When?
Hailig felt a huge pressure. His face tightened as he looked up.
Strange.
That was the feeling he had for the person in front of him. Yes, the person was also a one-horned ghost like him. However, his horns were very long. It was rare to see such a long horn among his kind. Also, he was not tall.
Hunters were generally strong. Very few of them were thin.
"Are you Hailig?"
The man asked. He glanced at Heilig carelessly, but Heilig felt a chill run down his spine.
"Yes, it's me. Three hours ago …"
"Enough. I only asked you one question. Don't talk nonsense with me."
"Don't be so arrogant, Oak."
At that moment, a voice came from the sky. Hailig looked up and saw a smiling face facing him.
Chestnut roared. Hailig immediately pressed it down.
It was a mask, a smiling face mask. Hailig did not notice when the person appeared behind him.
"Ha, you still have the nerve to talk about me. Damn seventh place."
Seventh place?
Hailig's heart skipped a beat. There was a ranking among the Bee Guardians. The ranking was related to strength and ability.
He remembered that seventh place was the Mocker Lian Ren. He had killed the Invisible Blade Demon on the second floor alone.
"Sorry, sorry. It's an old habit. I hope you don't mind, Hailig."
Bee Guardian Lian Ren said to Hailig in an insincere tone.
"Are you sure this furball is not a Hybrid Demon? I've never seen such a creature. "
"Chestnut, it's a beast. It's my partner."
Hailig immediately stood in front of Chestnut. He must be very nervous.
The seventh place was in the top ten Bee Guardians. They were very scary. That Unicorn Ghost should be the sixth place, Unicorn Ghost Oak. Although they were from the same tribe, Hailig had never seen him before. He was not a hunter. Instead, he was an elite selected from the tribe.
The two glanced at Chestnut. Chestnut's fur stood up, but Hailig held it down. It did not break free. Soon, the other party lost interest.
"Forget it. Let's see the situation inside first."
Oak said and entered the camp. Hailig sighed. When he stood up and wanted to enter, he was stopped by Lian Ren.
"You just need to guard outside. Leave the inside to us."
After saying that, he followed in.
Although Hailig felt uncomfortable, they were experts after all. It was better to leave it to them.
The next second, unsettling noises came from inside. There were sounds of bodies being moved and chairs being knocked against each other. Of course, there was also their infuriating conversation. Perhaps it was because Hailig was outside, they did not say anything about the camp or the murderer.
Soon, the two walked out.
"The investigation … is over?"
Hailig stood in front of the door. He quickly took out six maps and said, "The murderer took six maps. I …"
"I know. There's no need to say anything. You're definitely not a criminal."
Oak suddenly said.
Although Hailig was secretly relieved to be trusted, he was still a little confused.
"After all, you can't do these things at your level. The murderer is an interesting monster. Hehehe, we can play to our heart's content."
Following that, Lian Ren added with a smile.
Hailig clenched his fists. He was very angry. These two did not care about the dead hunters at all.
"Let's go. We still have to catch that murderer."
After saying that, Bee Guardian Oak and Lian Ren brushed past Hailig and left just like that.
