Are you kidding me?! The boss of the Hell Dungeon is a loli!

The aged voice above the city gate was still trembling, and Jiang Luo had already swallowed the crushed candy.

She raised her head, her red eyes sweeping towards the depths of the city gate.

"Open the door wider, Lolo's scythe is a bit long."

The eyes that covered the black city wall all rolled around in unison, making a soft, rustling sound.

The heavy city gate was pushed open from the inside, and the sound of the iron chain winch turning was deafening.

The first person to run out from behind the door was the withered old man.

The emaciated skeleton, draped in a dark gray robe, had run so fast that the bones in its left leg had dislocated, and it had already bent over before it had even come to a complete stop, its spine making a cracking sound.

"Lord Jiang! Why have you come in person! We were planning to deliver the compensation to Red Moon Castle tomorrow!"

Jiang Luo twirled the lollipop stick halfway between her fingers.

"Lolo has a bad temper; she won't wait until tomorrow."

Another group emerged from behind the old man with withered bones.

A dozen or so high-ranking lords, dressed in black robes, clad in bone armor, and with three horns on their heads, crowded at the city gate. Everyone wanted to stand at the front, yet no one dared to stand at the very front.

"Welcome, Lord of Calamity!"

A dozen voices shouted out in a disorderly manner, but their movements were terrifyingly synchronized, and they all bowed down to Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo didn't move.

She stared at the pile of drooping heads for three seconds, then snorted.

really interesting.

How did these guys insult Lolo at the entrance of Red Moon Castle a few days ago?

An empty shell, a useless piece of trash, a little girl who intimidates people with the name Jiang Juechen.

Now her waist is bent even more perfectly than Stella's.

"look up."

More than a dozen heads raised up in unison.

"Were you the one who shouted the loudest at Luo Luo's door last time?" Jiang Luo pointed his scythe forward, the tip of the blade stopping in front of the nose of a lord wearing bone armor.

The lord's bone armor shattered with a crash, and he immediately knelt down.

"It wasn't me! Those were Lord Caesar's men! I was in the back row! I didn't shout anything!"

"The back row is also a kind of walled city."

"I'll pay! I'll pay you back!"

Jiang Luo then put the sickle back on his shoulder.

The times have changed.

The crow stood half a step behind Jiang Luo, its beak agape, unable to close for a long time.

The high-ranking members of the Senate bowed to them.

No, she was bowing to Lord Jiang; she was just tagging along to get some attention.

But that's enough.

The crow couldn't help but raise its hand and pinch its arm.

It hurts.

If this scene were to be relayed back to Burial Canyon, Father's jaw would drop to the floor.

She secretly moved two steps closer to Jiang Luo, standing even closer.

Cling tightly to this powerful figure.

I will never let go, even if it means death.

"Lord Jiang," the skeletal old man rubbed his bony fingers, "a seat has been prepared inside. Please go in and rest your feet, have a drink—"

"etc."

Jiang Luo interrupted him.

Her red eyes scanned the group of heads at the doorway twice.

wrong.

"Where is Shura?"

The old man's jawbone clicked.

"And Herman's tin can, and Moen's fire stick." Jiang Luo pulled the lollipop stick out of his mouth. "Luo Luo counted twice, and none of them came out to greet Luo Luo."

None of the lords at the gate dared to speak.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Luo's voice softened, so much so that those in the front row took a half step back. "Luo Luo came to collect the debt, and the creditor has gone into hiding?"

"It's not hiding! Absolutely not hiding!" The old man with the skeletal bones raised his bony hand and waved it for a long time. "Lord Shura and the others... went to raise money."

"Raise money?"

"The 300,000 high-purity soul crystals you requested, plus compensation for the floor tiles, the siege, the steward's injuries, and the life cost of Satan, total 473,000." The skeletal old man recited the numbers fluently, clearly having memorized them many times. "The Senate treasury only has about 200,000 in stock; the rest will have to be transferred from various territories. Lord Shura personally led Herman and Moen to the South and West districts to collect the payments, and they won't be back until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest."

Jiang Luo chewed on the candy and thought for two seconds.

That makes sense.

Forty-seventy-three thousand is no small amount. Even if the Senate had been sucking blood from the strange world for a hundred years, they wouldn't be able to just casually pull it out.

"Tomorrow afternoon."

"Yes."

"An hour later." Jiang Luo tilted her head, revealing two small, sharp white teeth. "Luo Luo will twist your heads off one by one and feed them to Xiao Bai."

There was a trembling sound coming from the doorway.

It turns out that the Senate wasn't the first to take this statement seriously.

The shadow at Jiang Luo's feet swelled up.

"Hmm?"

Jiang Xiaobai peeked halfway out of the shadows, his round eyes scanning the pile of heads by the door, his mouth already open.

one meter.

Two meters.

three meters.

The enormous black maw stretched out to cover the entire city gate, its gleaming white teeth pressing outwards in layers, and the abyssal aura from the depths of its mouth smeared the ground.

"My older sister says it's okay to eat!"

"Lolo didn't say 'now'!"

Jiang Luo slapped Jiang Xiaobai on the forehead.

The giant mouth slammed shut, tearing off a piece of the robe from the corner of the robe of the three lords in the front row.

The three collapsed to the ground, and water began to drip from the hem of one of their bone armor plates.

"Little White is just biting into it for now, it'll chew on it tomorrow afternoon."

"Spit it out."

Jiang Xiaobai opened her mouth, looking aggrieved.

A bone crown, whose owner was unknown, fell to the ground and rolled twice.

The skeletal old man raised his hand to wipe away non-existent sweat from his forehead, his movements stiff as if a gear had jammed.

"Lord Jiang, this... this must be Lord Gluttony."

"Lolo's dog."

"Yes, yes, yes, the Glutton is so majestic."

"It's called Jiang Xiaobai."

"Jiang Xiaobai is so majestic!"

Jiang Xiaobai triumphantly shook off the cloud of black mist behind him and rubbed against Jiang Luo's leg.

He raised his head and stared blankly at Jiang Luo, poking his little hands with a pitiful expression.

"Big sister, Xiaobai isn't a dog."

Jiang Luo patted Jiang Xiaobai's head.

"Okay, okay, Xiaobai isn't."

The crow watching from behind felt its legs go weak, a feeling of both weakness and pleasure.

Wow, they don't even know how lucky they are!

No wonder he's a glutton.

If it were me...

I am Lord Jiang Luo's most loyal dog!

Woof woof~( • ̀ω•́ )✧

Lin Xiao stood beside her, his pale eyes staring at the skeletons hanging on the gate of the Senate, twirling the resentful pen in his hand.

"Jiang Luo".

"Um?"

"Those skulls hanging on the door, their aura is S-rank, there are 108 of them in total." Lin Xiao's voice was hoarse and flat. "They are engraved with the Senate's rule patterns, it's a security system."

"A silly woman can be quite useful."

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up.

"Shall we come in?" The withered old man cautiously reached out his hand to invite them inside. "Lord Jiang, and a few other lords, please."

Jiang Luo shifted the sickle to his shoulder and stepped onto the first stone brick inside the Senate gate with his black leather shoes.

This is the step.

The mark of calamity on his chest suddenly trembled.

It wasn't the kind of tremor you feel when you're being attacked.

It's more like... something inside the body moved on its own, probing in a certain direction across the city wall and the ground, and then retreating.

Jiang Luo's foot remained on the stone brick, without lifting her toes.

The source of the calamity circled within her body and then fell silent.

But she remembered that direction.

It's not the main hall.

It's right under my feet, very deep down.

Something was drawing her in...
