I Will Teach You How to Hunt Gods

Chapter 615 170: Initial Sequence

"I won, as agreed, you should tell me everything you know, completely and thoroughly."

Yun You casually picked up a smooth marble, placed it underneath, and sat down effortlessly, staring directly at Shen Ye in front of her.

The reason why she didn't directly use the Heaven and Earth Grinding Disc to crush Shen Ye earlier was to obtain information.

"Cough... cough..."

Shen Ye lightly coughed twice; he had long lost the sensation of pain since his nerves and central system had already been destroyed. The most "merciful" aspect of Heaven and Earth Reincarnation lies here... aside from fear, it doesn't bring much pain.

At this moment, there wasn't much agony on Shen Ye's face; instead, there was a hint of relief.

What was he thinking? Was he regretting his past actions? Or confessing his sins?

Yun You had no way of knowing, so she wanted to know everything.

"Of course, I will tell you the answer, Wu Ming Miss."

"However..."

He raised his head with difficulty, indicating with his eyes the audience watching the Great Colosseum.

With that gesture, Yun You immediately understood his meaning.

The Great Colosseum had many eyes and ears; though normally the audience couldn't hear the contestants on stage due to the distance and invisible barriers, it's not impossible for some skilled individuals to deduce Shen Ye's words from "lip-reading" and "facial expressions".

That information is crucial; if leaked, it might bring unnecessary trouble to Yun You. Hence, Shen Ye proactively suggested that Yun You find a concealed place first.

Upon this realization, Yun You nodded lightly but didn't go to the trouble of finding a completely enclosed structure. Instead, she heavily stomped down, breaking through the concrete floor beneath, taking Shen Ye directly down into the sewage pipes, while not forgetting to activate "Glimmering Moon," summoning layers of fog to further conceal their presence.

Now, no one can detect their conversation topics.

Some audience members, still puzzled, summoned service staff to ask what on earth was happening and questioned whether Yun You and Shen Ye were still fighting, why they hadn't seen the execution phase...

But the service staff merely kept silent, noting that neither had violated any rules, forcing the audience, despite their curiosity and dissatisfaction, to wait patiently.

"Now, can you speak?"

Amidst the mist, Yun You spoke again.

Shen Ye gently nodded, slightly organizing his thoughts.

"I think, as an Apprentice Death God, Wu Ming Miss, you should know how many tiers we Death Gods have, correct?"

Upon hearing this, Yun You was instantly taken aback.

What was Shen Ye talking about? Wasn't he supposed to reveal the truth about the massacre that night? Why did he suddenly switch topics to this?

Death Gods have seven tiers—a fact known by every Apprentice Death God... and most civilians. What is there to say about this?

Yet, at this point, Yun You wasn't angry or anxious; she simply replied softly, "Seven tiers, this is something every Death God knows, right?"

Shen Ye evidently saw the confusion in the girl's heart and lightly shook his head.

"Have you ever understood the strongest Apprentice Death Gods in our various Nest Cities... and even on various well-known planets, what tier they are at?"

"I'm talking about the strongest, not those who seek fame and fortune."

Yun You froze.

The strongest...

She searched her memory for related information.

Fortunately, this information wasn't hard to find, as Apprentice Death Gods worth being called the strongest must be widely renowned, famous enough for ordinary people to know, so Yun You quickly found a dozen examples.

The strongest in Nest City No. 1 is an old guard sequence Apprentice Death God named Li Qing, holding the Leader position in the city's Death God Organization, who made a name for himself in the 8th Corporate War 50 years ago, at Tier Six.

The strongest in Nest City No. 2 is Gustar, from the Regulator Sequence, Tier Six.

Nest City No. 3... Previously, there was a recognized strongest, but he fell in the Corporate War 30 years ago, and his tier was also Tier Six...

Then, there's Nest City No. 5's "Kael," Nest City No. 7's "Mongoose," and Moon Colony's overall in-charge "Alan."

At first glance, these people don't seem to have much in common, but upon closer observation, Yun You quickly discovered an issue.

That is... these widely renowned Apprentice Death Gods, whether natives born on Earth or people from other colonies, regardless of their positions or strengths, all equally occupy "Tier Six."

No exceptions.

This was odd.

It stands to reason that people differ in height, weight, talents, and skills, and even as the strongest, differences should exist among them.

Yet why do these favored by the heavens uniformly stop at Tier Six? Not a single one is Tier Five or Tier Seven?

Yun You thought, perhaps the current strongest of Nest City No. 3 is Old Jin, but it's unlikely he reached Tier Seven; there's a high chance he's like the others, stuck at "Six," which evidently doesn't add up.

"Notice the problem?"

Shen Ye lightly coughed a few times, murmuring, "If only one or two top figures are stuck at Tier Six, then this example wouldn't hold much sway. But if they're all like this, the doubt arises: the issue is not with those strong characters themselves."
