Chapter 269 was arrested
Liu Chi and Zhu Xiu quickly continued their previous exploration plan into the spiritual sea.
Until Liu Chi heard Milia's notification.
"Dad! It looks like we're here!"
Knowing the huge time difference between the inside and the outside, Liu Chi did not stop exploring immediately, but sped up and completed the itinerary he had planned before saying goodbye to Zhu Xiu.
As his consciousness turned, Liu Chi saw the sparse lights in the distance and found it hard to believe that this was Hel, the imperial capital of Los. It was not as bright as Liro, the imperial capital of the Sunset Empire, at night.
Compared to Lillo, Hull's lighting seemed decades behind.
Seeing that Catherine was still sleeping beside him, Liu Chi closed his eyes again.
"Katherine, we're here, time to wake up!"
After informing Catherine in the spiritual sea, she returned to reality and the comatose Catherine immediately woke up excitedly.
After she saw the scenery in the distance clearly, she was also slightly stunned.
"Liu Chi, are we really here?"
"We're here. I was confused at first, but the map showed that we had indeed arrived."
"Since you are all awake, I will put you down."
After Millia finished speaking, she let the two of them down from a high altitude. Because there were three tall towers in Hull, Millia did not dare to fly directly into the city.
After landing, Liu Chi and Catherine walked slowly towards the city of Hull with the help of the lighting from the city wall.
From a distance, the two demihuman guards spotted Liu Chi and his companion approaching the city gate.
"See those two sneaky guys over there?"
"Maybe he's an adventurer."
"Have you forgotten the city's rules?"
"Oh, right!"
After a conversation, the two men gave a signal to the other guards in the city, and in a moment a team of armored demi-humans hid behind the city gate.
As the two approached, a guard pointed his spear at Liu Chi.
"who?"
"I'm traveling here from the Eastern Continent."
Seeing that the tip of the gun was almost against his neck, Liu Chi quickly explained,
"What about the person next to him?"
"She's my partner, let's travel to Hull together! Hehe!"
"Let her take off her hood, we need to see clearly!"
Liu Chi gave a somewhat awkward smile, and had to use the illusion of his soul to change Catherine's hair color to black.
After seeing that there was no threat under Catherine's hood, the guard was speechless for a moment.
"Don't you two know the rules of Hull?"
Liu Chi smiled and scratched the back of his head in a pretentious manner.
"I seem to have forgotten that! Haha!"
"Get it for me!"
One of the guards seemed impatient and shouted loudly.
In just a moment, a team of guards "jumped out" from the city gate and surrounded Liu Chi and the other man tightly.
"I'm sorry, I think you two are unknown outsiders, so please cooperate with us so that we can report to the higher-ups."
Seeing that the group of people were directly using violence against him, Liu Chi immediately gave up the idea of bribery. With so many people present, even if he bribed them, there would be too many people to tell lies, and once they started investigating, he would have no way to escape.
After weighing the pros and cons, Liu Chi raised his hands slightly and signaled to Catherine with his eyes, and the latter also raised her hands.
The guards then put shackles on the two men and separated them for a thorough interrogation.
Along the way, Liu Chi lowered his head. The technological system was constantly scanning the surrounding terrain. In just a moment, all the nearby buildings appeared in front of Liu Chi, and Catherine's location was also displayed on the interface.
"Hello, may I ask what race you are, brother Demihuman? I see you have a pair of long ears."
Liu Chi tentatively spoke to the guard leading the way in front, but there was no response.
As he felt a pain in his shoulder, Liu Chi was thrown directly into an interrogation room by the guards.
"Behave yourself here. Until your identity is clear, we have the right to treat you as a threat."
After saying this, the guard left with his team.
Seeing the guard leave, Liu Chi began to look around.
The place where he was imprisoned was like half a cage, with an iron fence in front and a rectangular table behind the iron fence. The cage was covered with a layer of hay, which gave off a faint foul smell, probably because many detainees had to relieve themselves on the spot due to urgent needs.
Seeing that Catherine's position had also stopped and did not move, fortunately the distance was not particularly far, only separated by a few walls, and the branch line was no more than fifty meters away.
Liu Chi closed his eyes and prepared to try to contact Catherine. Because Liu Chi's blood was flowing in her body, in addition to being able to enter and exit Liu Chi's spiritual world at close range, Liu Chi was ready to try another possibility, which was to communicate with the mind like he did with his familiars.
Following an invisible sense of energy, Liu Chi seemed to be setting it up, constantly transforming his spiritual energy like a radio receiving signals.
It worked!
The moment he heard and sensed Catherine's heartbeat, Liu Chi suddenly opened his eyes.
"Catherine?"
Hearing the sudden voice in her mind, Catherine looked around in horror and did not answer Liu Chi's voice. She was not sure if this was a bait to expose her.
"Third Princess! I am in your mind, and I am talking to you through telepathy. You can also communicate with me this way, just like in the spiritual sea!"
As a test, Catherine responded to Liu Chi,
"Are you Liuchi?"
"What's wrong? You can't even recognize my voice, Master Zha?"
Liu Chi joked that in this way, the communication between him and Catherine would be opened up, and if they were questioned, they would be able to speak with one voice without revealing anything.
"Hmph! Chou Liuchi, you caused this princess to be captured! Why don't we just go into the city?"
"The Third Princess doesn't know that the three towers of cultivators are all in Hull, right?"
"What does that matter?"
"Milia is a vampire! Once her identity is exposed, we're all done. This should be a routine inspection. As long as we cooperate, we can leave after the inspection."
"Humph! I'll just trust you for now! But you have to compensate me when you get out. Buy me lots and lots of food!"
"Okay, okay! I will listen to you, Princess!"
So the two of them chatted intermittently. During this time, Liu Chi also tried. At such a long distance, Catherine could not connect to his spiritual sea at all. Moreover, facing the interrogation with no fixed time, it is better to pay attention at all times.
Soon the sunlight shone into the cage through the small window on the wall behind him. Although he was mentally prepared, Liu Chi was still depressed. Why did he have to wait so long? Does this also have to be divided into working hours?
Sure enough, after nine o'clock, a fat female demihuman yawned and walked into Liu Chi's sight.
