Most of the adventurers who can reach the 18th floor have participated in expeditions. It stands to reason that patience cannot be so poor, but there is obvious commotion in the team. Many people seem to be eager to leave... No, they should be eager to escape from the 18th floor. It seems that
It's like I already knew something dangerous was going to happen.
Just when he was about to call someone to inquire, the ground beneath his feet suddenly shook violently.
earthquake?
No, something is coming out of the ground... just like the feeling on the day of the Monster Festival!
"It's over! Those things are coming!"
While the ordinary adventurers didn't know what was going on, the player adventurers had already broken through the team and fled.
The adventurers of Rivera Street who were responsible for maintaining order were unable to prevent such a large-scale riot, and now they were facing a more difficult enemy.
Corpse flower!
A plant monster with a level as high as LV.4 that appeared at the Monster Festival!
This time there were not just a few plants, but the entire Rivera Street!
The few unlucky ones who stood at the germination point of the Demon Corpse Flower were bitten by the huge flowers that burst out of the ground before they had time to react, causing them to scream and rain blood all over the sky.
Countless air roots emerged from the cracks in the stone, twisting like venomous snakes, attacking all moving objects within the length range unscrupulously. Adventurers with less equipment could not even block the frontal attack of these emerald green roots.
Dozens of people were instantly killed on the spot, and some adventurers who narrowly survived were mostly seriously injured.
"It's this kind of monster again! Don't panic, everyone, be prepared for battle! High-level adventurers will form a formation to cover, and low-level adventurers will evacuate in an orderly manner! - Ais Lefiya?"
The footprints of "Brave Finn" have reached the fifty underground floors. He has seen scenes that are more chaotic and dangerous than the current one. After a brief shock, he immediately regained his composure. While organizing the members of the Loki Familia to fight, he discovered that there seemed to be something in the team.
Two people are missing.
"Riveria, have you seen Ais and Lefia?" "Brave Finn" asked loudly to "Nine Demons - Riveria" who was preparing to activate magic.
He is not worried about "Sword Queen - Ais", but "Thousand Fairies - Lefiya" has been promoted to LV.3 under the protection of a large team. In terms of combat experience, it may not be as good as a person crawling around in the dungeon alone.
I'm playing LV.2, so it might be dangerous if I go alone.
"Don't worry, I just saw the two of them chasing a suspicious adventurer."
Luo Jie told "Brave-Finn" what he saw.
Hearing that "Thousand Fairy Lefia" and "Sword Princess Ais" were staying together, "Brave Finn" breathed a sigh of relief.
"careful!"
"Finn" stabbed out the spear in his hand, cut an air root that sneaked up from the ground into two pieces, and saved a middle-aged adventurer with a shield beside him.
"The roots of this plant-type monster are very obstructive. It is difficult for melee professions to break through the defense of the roots and attack the main body. Long-range professions also need to be prepared for sneak attacks from underground at all times. They must be protected by someone around them... Mr. Nightmare,
I'm a little worried about Ace and Lefiya, can you help me take care of them?"
It sounds a bit unbelievable to let a LV.3 take care of a LV.5, but "Brave Finn" does know Luo Jie's unique stunts. When facing this kind of plant monster, his combat effectiveness is completely comparable to that of Luo Jie.
LV.6 or above.
Luo Jie was also a little unsure about the situation on the side of "Sword Queen Ais". After all, according to the original plot, the real enemy she faced was not these corpse flowers, but a group of people named "Rei Wei" who belonged to the dark faction. "Silk" mysterious woman.
Although the two are both at LV.5, the opponent's strength is obviously superior to "Sword Queen - Ais". In the original work, this is due to the timely timing of "Brave - Finn" and "Nine Demon Queen - Riveria". With reinforcements, they were able to push back the red-haired woman "Revis" who was about to take "Ais"'s life.
Affected by the butterfly effect, Luo Jie was not sure that "Brave Finn" could arrive in time in this world.
Just as Luo Jie was about to agree, the two Amazon sisters who were fighting with the Corpse Flower in mid-air seemed to have discovered something and exclaimed: "Mr. Nightmare, your shop!"
Luo Jie looked around and saw fire and smoke rising from the direction of his pharmacy.
With the intelligence of the Demonic Corpse Flower, it is impossible to set a fire, and the dark faction behind it would not be stupid enough to burn the monster he worked so hard to cultivate. This seemingly coincidental arson obviously has someone else.
Recalling the previous report from the clerk, Luo Jie narrowed his eyes and already knew something about it.
Those guys from Miao District kept poking their heads but never took action. It turns out they were just waiting for this opportunity.
Looking at the direction in which the fire was rising, "Brave Finn" also realized something. He is one of the most senior adventurers in Orario. He has experienced various intrigues among adventurers, and he couldn't help but frowned and said: " It seems that someone is planning to take advantage of the situation... We will go to Ace's side later, Mr. Nightmare should go take care of his own shop first."
Luo Jie shook his head and declined the kindness of "Brave Finn", and said indifferently: "If those people think they can destroy my store because I am not here, they are destined to pay a heavy price."
…
Rivera Street, outer corner.
The brown-skinned dog-man girl "Mud Dog-Lulune" was chased so hard that her legs were weak. She sat on the logs repairing the fence and gasped for air. She still held tightly the worn and worn animal skin bag in her hand.
The two girls standing in front of her were none other than "Swordswoman-Ais" and "Thousand-Fairy-Refia" from the Loki Familia.
"I received a commission before, asking me to come to the 18th floor to bring something back. I thought it was just an ordinary commission, but I didn't expect that the trader would die... I heard that the murderer rummaged through the deceased's belongings. She must be looking for this backpack, the murderer can easily kill even LV.4, I will definitely die if she finds out."
The dog-man girl's body couldn't help but tremble as she spoke. Even though "Swordswoman Ais", known as Orario's strongest female swordsman, was by her side, it didn't give her much sense of security.
"This thing is a very important piece of evidence. Can you leave it to us for processing?" "Lefiya, the Thousand Fairies" comforted the frightened dog-man girl in a good voice.
"Mud Dog-Lulune" handed over the backpack without any hesitation, and she let out a sigh of relief as if she had thrown away a hot potato.
Inside the backpack is a spherical object wrapped in cloth.
"Thousand Fairy Lefia" handed the thing to "Sword Princess Ais", who carefully opened the rag on the surface, revealing a gem-like emerald green ball inside.
Inside the hard shell, curled up was an ugly little monster that looked like a fetus.
"What's this?"
None of the three girls recognized this thing. The monsters in the dungeon were all born directly from the walls, and the ordinary beasts outside did not have such weird shapes.
