More than twenty days have passed since the "Monster Festival", and people have gradually forgotten the massacre during the monster riots. Orario's market is still bustling and noisy, and young men and women with dreams continue to gather from all over the continent.
Here, we seek wealth, fame, and... an encounter with the gods that will accompany us throughout our future lives.
The expedition supply station, Rivera Street on the 18th floor, is also welcoming a group of new faces.
"In just over two months, LV.2 has already become a mainstream level."
In the lounge on the second floor of the "Cyan Crystal Light" main store, holding the herbal tea carefully prepared by "Gojono Kaguya", Luo Jie sat on the window sill and squinted at the streets, which were obviously more crowded than usual.
Order of magnitude huge crowds.
"Your Highness!"
A girl with a long fiery red ponytail ran up the stairs in a hurry, grabbed the newly brewed tea from "Gojono Kaguya", drank it down in one breath, wiped her mouth and said, "Someone came to the store just now.
To spy on the information, I followed His Highness's instructions and did not alert them or reveal my rank."
"Alixe, is this the reason why you came here to cheat me into drinking tea? I prepared this for His Highness..." There were obviously veins trembling on the forehead of "Gojono Kaguya".
"It tastes pretty good! But I feel a little dry after drinking it. Did you put something wrong? Fortunately, my "abnormal resistance" level is high. Kaguya, don't be so careless next time..."
"Asshole! Alishe, shut up!"
"Gojono Kaguya" glanced at Luo Jie guiltily, with a slightly embarrassed look on her face.
"Oh, are those people here again?"
Luo Jie casually put down the tea cup without looking into what was inside.
About half a month ago, when "Light of Green Crystal" just started to expand, some sneaky guys appeared near the main store.
Luo Jie originally thought he was one of those former Rivera Street adventurers who were unwilling to accept the closure of the drugstore, but after seeing the red outline of the other party, he realized that he was being targeted by the hostile camp forces in Miao District.
It's not surprising when you think about it. Although the aboriginal adventurer couldn't detect the logistics channel of "Cyan Crystal Light", fellow players could definitely guess that he had rare large-capacity space equipment in his hand.
The drug business on Rivera Street was a piece of meat that anyone would want to take a bite of if they had the chance.
Whether it is the current cash flow of millions of "Cyan Crystal Light" or the space equipment in his hands, it is enough to attract some greedy people to take risks.
The opponent has not taken action until now, obviously they have not figured out the identities and levels of "Kaguya" and others. Luo Jie also specifically ordered them not to reveal their strength. Even if the opponent hired gangsters to provoke several times, only Luo Jie took action.
, deliberately creating the illusion that there are no high-level adventurers in the store.
There is only a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no thousand days to guard against thieves. Luo Jie's show of weakness is also to lure the other party to take action earlier, otherwise he will always be remembered like this, and he will not be able to sleep well.
A blinding golden light suddenly penetrated Luo Jie's field of vision, and the whole street seemed to light up by several colors.
"Alysee, Kaguya, take a good look at the store, I'm going to meet a friend."
While talking, Luo Jie turned over and jumped from the window sill on the second floor to the road below.
"sacred."
"Oh, Ye, so you are here too."
Accompanying "Holy Glory" were two sisters, "Succulents", "Fiery Red Cactus" and "Emerald Cactus". They were already acquaintances with each other, and when they saw Luo Jie, they each came up to chat and greet each other.
"By the way, Holy Spirit, you should also have LV.3, right?" Luo Jie asked casually.
"Holy Glory" shook his head: "It should be said that it is 99.9% of LV.2 - I am stuck at the bottleneck."
"Isn't it? You encountered an upgrade bottleneck so quickly?"
Luo Jie was a little surprised. In his opinion, such things as bottlenecks could not happen to "Holy Glory", the chosen European emperor.
"It's not just me. Fire Red and Jade are also stuck at the final bottleneck of LV.2. The last point of "Great Deeds" cannot be filled up no matter how many monsters are killed."
"There is no bottleneck in Succulent?" Luo Jie noticed that "Holy Glory" seemed to have missed someone.
"I only have 50% experience, and I'm still far from the bottleneck."
"Succulent" gave a thumbs up with flashing teeth.
You are so proud...well, you shouldn't have high expectations for this twist.
"Then what are you..."
"We are preparing to fight "Goliath" this time." "Holy Glory" pointed meaningfully at the top of the head, which is the location on the seventeenth floor, "Actually, many players are like us when they are leveling up to LV.3. We have encountered a bottleneck. In the original book of "Di Er", adventurers have a high probability of breaking through the bottleneck by killing the floor leader or killing high-level monsters by leapfrogging. We cannot sneak into deeper places in the dungeon, so we can only try to kill the 17th floor. The Lone King of the Labyrinth... In fact, most of the players who have recently arrived on the 18th floor came here for this reason."
In the dungeon, there are one or two particularly powerful monsters on each floor. Although they are generally called "floor masters", in fact they can only be regarded as enhanced versions of elite monsters.
Currently, the only person who is truly recognized as a BOSS-level floor master is the "Lone King of the Labyrinth" who appears every seven.
Seventeenth floor - the black giant "Goliath".
The twenty-seventh floor - the double-headed water dragon "Anphispina".
The thirty-seventh floor - the undead overlord "Udaios".
The forty-seventh floor - the evil-eyed demon "Balor".
As for the lonely king in the deeper parts of the labyrinth, I am afraid that only the strongest family members of the original Orario, the "Zeus" and "Hera" families, who have been destroyed by the black dragons, have records.
The floor master's refresh location is random, and there is no fixed time. If you want to encounter him, you basically have to rely on luck. If you don't have such luck, if you want to break through the bottleneck, the only way is to refresh the "Lone King of the Maze".
There is no need for a final blow, as long as a certain amount of output can be achieved, or a certain amount of auxiliary treatment can be given to the output person, the most critical achievement leading to the next level can be achieved.
"Ye, haven't you encountered a bottleneck yet? Or..."
"I'm already at LV.3, and I just happened to meet the floor master."
For people like "Holy Glory", Luo Jie has no need to hide his level.
It seems that he was lucky. When he was leveling the 15th floor of the food warehouse, there happened to be two floor masters among the monsters eating, which allowed him to pass through the final bottleneck of LV.2 without even noticing it. exist.
"Oh, then your luck is really good." "Holy Glory" seemed to be relieved, and approached Luo Jie, lowering his voice and said: "Ye, be careful lately, you are making too much noise on the 18th floor. There are several main teams in Miao District that seem to be planning to join forces to ambush you."
"Thank you, I've noticed them."
Although Luo Jie has already set up a dragnet waiting for those reckless people to show up, he still expresses his sincere gratitude to "Holy Glory" for his kind reminder.
Suddenly there was a commotion on the street, and a large crowd of onlookers gathered outside a nearby hotel.
"It seems something happened. Let's go take a look."
