Slime, who was squirming for his life in the dark environment, cursed silently in his "heart" (if slime also has this organ)
Rebelion's intricate sewer pipes have not been cleaned for countless years, and the strong odor emitted by all kinds of filth and sewage can simply make people faint.
The narrow, dark sewer with complicated paths was originally an excellent escape route for him who could basically ignore terrain obstacles...
But were those adventurers on drugs today or what happened?
The first failure in his assassination career actually attracted so many adventurers to chase and intercept him in the sewers...
"The traces left by the assassin were found!"
Hearing the call of adventurers in the distance, Gram couldn't help but speed up his movements.
After being injured, he could no longer maintain his deformed state. His escape speed in his original form could only barely match the speed of an ordinary human being.
The speed of the pursuers behind him was obviously faster than his escape speed. If he continued like this, he would be overtaken by them sooner or later.
No wonder a big shot like Lord Nanlisifus feels like a difficult target for assassination...
"It should be not far ahead."
Karl, who twisted the gray sticky marks on the ground with his fingers, turned to Yanni and said.
Since using fire magic in the smelly sewers may cause an explosion, most adventurers can only use a kind of crystal lighting that emits weak fluorescence. The dim light and complicated paths make it impossible for most adventurers to get here.
Use the speed you deserve.
And the reason why they are one step ahead of everyone else is...
"I really don't know why Shi Junjun has so many weird things."
Jenny, who held a flashlight to illuminate Karl, covered her mouth and answered in a low voice.
Unlike the short metal stick that can produce thunder and lightning, the one in their hands seems to only be able to emit light for illumination.
This is actually a custom-made magic item that works without inputting magic power...
An E-class adventurer who can own two or more custom-made magic items...
The strong sense of fragmentation made Shi Junjun's identity a little confusing for a while.
Could it be that she is hiding her true strength?
Or maybe there is a prominent family behind her...
"We have to move quickly. Not far ahead is the underground of the slum, which is probably the lair of the slime."
Karl, who looked a little ugly, added, "He must not be allowed to escape unless the president has made up his mind to go to war with Rebelion's underground forces..."
They all know that the energy of the underground forces hidden in the slums is beyond the reach of one or two ordinary adventurers.
"Let's do our best. If we fail to block the assassin in the sewer, we can only return to the ground and consider the long term..."
On the second floor of the Adventurer's Guild, except for the president's office, staff dormitories, and two utility rooms filled with things, most of the other rooms are arranged into guest rooms for adventurers to stay temporarily.
To ensure Shi Junjun's personal safety in the next few days, one of the guest rooms was packed into her temporary residence.
As a trainee magician in the team of C-level adventurer Bearded Uncle Wundt, he spent a lot of effort to set up simple magic circles inside and outside the room, which not only played a weak protective role, but also made their team aware of it immediately.
The existence of assassins.
In fact, Shi Junjun didn't feel that infrared alarms would be less effective than these magic circles from other worlds, so he declined the request of several adventurers for around-the-clock personal protection.
Then there would be no privacy at all, and the secret of being a time traveler would also increase the possibility of being exposed...
After repeatedly confirming that the bearded uncle and the others did not know how to use magic like perspective, the girl closed the door.
Lying on the cleanest bed she had ever seen since traveling to another world, she slowly emptied her mind.
All other worlds, magic, and the thin line between life and death were temporarily abandoned. At this moment, she seemed to be back in the bedroom of the old neighborhood with ivy climbing on the windowsill. The newly-sunbed bed beneath her was soft and warm. Not long after, the fragrance of vegetables wafted into her.
room, there would be a familiar voice calling her to wake up.
Just when she was about to fall into a pure dreamless sleep, a vibrating touch came from the middle of her clothes, causing her to wake up again in an instant.
Shi Junjun stood up and hung up the phone and replied:
[It’s not convenient to answer the phone in the Adventurer’s Guild]
Did he get in so quickly? Looking at the text on the phone screen, Shao Wei, who had just walked out of the classroom, replied with suspicion:
[Already got in? They don’t suspect anything about you, right?]
[Not at all, it’s just that the identity I made up was looked down upon by a foul-mouthed native from another world... so there was a bit of a conflict]
[There was a conflict? Are you okay? Are you injured? Do you need any other supplies? 】
Shao Wei, who suddenly became nervous, had already begun to plan in his mind the fastest way to reach the nearby pharmacy.
[It’s okay, it’s okay, the bad-mouthed guy opposite has no martial ethics in a duel, and he wanted to attack from behind, but luckily I dodged him]
Shi Junjun regretted pressing the send button just as he was about to withdraw the message, but Shao Wei's message popped up first.

[In fact, a duel is more like a martial arts competition in the ring. There are rules and restrictions. As long as you admit defeat in time, you will basically not be injured...]
When he thought of the word duel, this scene immediately came to Shao Wei's mind:
Shi Junjun raised the heavy sword tremblingly, and struggled to block the slashes that were several times larger than his opponent's. Facing the attack like a violent storm, he was surrounded by dangers...
wrong.
Could it be that she beat her opponent to death...
After explaining the cause of the duel in writing, Shi Junjun waited for a long time but did not see Shao Wei's reply.
After waiting for so long that the girl thought he was busy with other things, a new message popped up in the chat bar.
[Next time you encounter this kind of situation...just be patient as much as possible and try to avoid conflicts with those people]
Is this what the Shao Wei I know would say?
The girl tapped the screen and expressed her attitude in words.
[Unilateral tolerance cannot solve any problem, it can only make the perpetrators worse]
She waited for a long time before she received Shao Wei's next reply:
[Perhaps you are right when you say you are in our world, but the place you are in now is a different world]
