"Either they are newbies or they are powerful hunting groups."

The giant made such a judgment.

"In the ruins, lighting a torch means exposing your position and may attract other monsters. Generally, only rookies would rashly light a torch. Of course, another possibility is a hunting group of more than a dozen people. They are well-equipped and can handle most enemies."

Since the fire had not been lit up before entering the city and had only just started, we could preliminarily judge that the people on the opposite side had also just arrived at the edge of the ruins.

"Don't worry, we can wait for them to explore first and help us attract the monsters."

Yanxin was not panicked.

Xiaya followed Lu Ban without saying a word.

She glanced at Lu Ban, then snapped her fingers silently with her gloved hands.

A certain ripple spread, her eyes lit up, and she soon had the answer.

"Sixteen people, more than twenty camels, and some large equipment are gathering together, about seven hundred meters away from us."

She used detection skills to briefly scan the surroundings.

Lu Ban remembered that Xia Ya said that her detection skills could only detect enemies about a hundred meters away, but now she could detect enemies seven hundred meters away. Was it because she had specified a direction?

He doesn't know magic.

But it seems that magic is not static. It does not mean that Fireball can only produce a fireball. Maybe Fireball only creates a ball of fire. How to use it specifically is up to the mage.

There is no weakest spell, only the weakest mage.

A powerful wizard, even if he only knows the art of illumination, can still drive away the fire demons. A foolish wizard, even if he knows the forbidden spell of destruction, can only be in dire straits.

"…Also, there are some things in the city that are not very friendly. They are underground, like bugs."

Shia added.

"A city occupied by bugs?"

The giant wrist touched his chin, and the crystals on his hands seemed to spread a little more, and the joints were covered with crystals.

"Let's get away from these people first. They should move towards the city center and let them trigger traps and monsters."

After finalizing the plan, they dispersed and waited for a while.

Lu Ban stood on a high place and could clearly see the moving paths of the flames.

First, the dimmer fire moved forward, followed by the brightest fire, and finally the dimmer fire caught up. In addition, flames also rose where they were stationed.

"Should we send scouts or advance teams to investigate the situation, with the main force following up, and then a small team to cover the rear?"

Lu Ban roughly understood the way they explored.

This is completely different from the operation often seen in movies where the exploration team acts separately and finally reunites at the grave.

"Because the biggest enemy in the ruins is not monsters, but humans?"

Lu Ban guessed that the reason for this was probably because this mode of travel had a very strong suppressive effect on wilderness hunters, and was not afraid of most monsters. As for the saint, if they really came face to face with the saint, even if one or two people escaped, they would still die in the desert, so it was better to act together.

While watching the team of wilderness hunters searching the city, Lu Ban suddenly had an inspiration and felt as if there was something behind him.

He turned around and saw a man in white standing there.

It was hard to tell the age of the buildings here. Due to long-term weathering, there were no tall buildings left. The tallest ones were two-story houses. Lu Ban stood on the roof of one of them and hid behind the wall.

And that person was right within Lu Ban's reach.

It looks like a boy or a girl, and its gender cannot be told. It has long, dark hair and delicate facial features, but its eyes are completely black, with no whites, making it look a little hideous.

The robe it was wearing concealed its body, leaving only a pair of bare feet exposed, spotless.

The man leaned forward slightly, as if he was curious about what Lu Ban was looking at. When Lu Ban was observing the group of people before, this guy seemed to be following and watching from behind Lu Ban.

"who?"

Lu Ban clenched the crowbar in his hand and asked.

He didn't know whether the other party had any ill intentions, but this guy showed up and didn't attack him directly, which at least meant that he was not his mortal enemy?

Hearing Lu Ban's question, the man also took half a step back.

"***?"

It made some sounds, as if it was imitating Lu Ban.

"?"

A question mark popped up above Lu Ban’s head.

"?"

A question mark also appeared above the other party's head.

Lu Ban raised his left hand and waved it gently.

The man also raised his left hand and waved gently.

You can see that its hands are also very slender, like a woman's hands.

Lu Ban reached out his hand to the other party and gently patted its shoulder.

The silk-like fabric gave off a soft yet cold touch.

Like a corpse that has passed the rigor mortis stage.

At the same time, the other party stretched out his hand like Lu Ban and pressed it on Lu Ban's shoulder.

Its hands are also very soft. If they were not cold, they would definitely be very delicate hands.

In this ruin, it looks like a corpse. Even if Lu Ban used his knees to think, he could guess that this thing might be the remains of a saint.

It’s just… shouldn’t the remains of a saint be something so awesome that just one look at it can make the earth devastated, cold and indifferent?

What's going on with this guy who looks like a naughty kid?

Lu Ban glanced at Xia who was hiding in the shadows in the distance. The girl in full armor was staring at the fire intently while releasing detection skills to investigate the situation.

However, her detection skills obviously did not cover Lu Ban's surroundings, or perhaps her detection skills were too low level and she was unable to detect any abnormal conditions around Lu Ban.

"Are you the remains of a saint?"

Lu Ban spoke directly and asked in a low voice.

"＊＊＊＊＊＊＊?"

It tried to imitate, but only made incomplete sounds.

Just when Lu Ban didn't know what to do and was looking for an opportunity to inform Xiaya, a loud noise came from the direction of that group of people.

It sounded like the sound of a building collapsing. Lu Ban turned around and saw that it was the sound of a team of people completely destroying a building that had already collapsed and was blocking the road.

When Lu Ban turned back to check the status of that thing, he found that it had disappeared at some point.

"...At least it shouldn't be hostile?"

Lu Ban couldn't figure out what was going on.

"Come to think of it, what I need is the remains of a saint. Do I have to pack up that guy and take him back with me?"

Feeling a little cruel, Lu Ban saw that this group of people were walking towards the center of the city, where there was a circular square. In the center of the square, there seemed to be an altar.

After coming down from upstairs, Lu Ban found Xiaya and told her what had just happened.

"It suddenly appears and disappears, and it's walking in this city?"

Xia didn't quite understand the other person's behavior, so she rested her chin on her hand and thought.

At this moment, Lu Ban suddenly discovered that behind Xia, about one step away, the "saint's remains" in white clothes were standing there again, with no whites in his eyes, and his pitch-black eyes were staring straight at the mage girl.
