Chapter 291: Between Companions

"What's going to happen at the bottom, you say?" said the lizardman Stante, flicking the blood from his twin knives and glancing deeper into the dungeon, where the faint light of the torches was anything but beautiful.

"Who knows? Maybe a nest of lizard eggs. Diller, the halfling, shrugged his shoulders and habitually talked about the topic of 'eggs'. Diller wanted to laugh, but he didn't, because now the hunting party is four people.

In addition to Thor Steint and Diller, there is also a halfling beauty named Rose Anella in the team at this moment. A second-order thief, with dark red hair, and a swift and athletic body.

It's hard to say whether it's a beauty or not, after all, there are three races in the team, and it is inevitable that the aesthetics are different.

In Stante's eyes, most humans may look alike, even halflings. In Saul's eyes, it is already good, on the one hand, because the halfling looks similar to a human in addition to her height, and on the other hand, because she is Diller's woman.

Whether or not it was Diller's woman is also debatable, and although both Staunt and Saul thought it was, and hoped so, so that Diller could throw off his hat of being a lonely, Diller never dared to announce his relationship with Sloss in any public setting.

According to Diller's private disclosure, he 'captured' the little beauty in Afriel.

Yaflel is a medium-sized main city, certainly somewhere on the mainland, and of course none of that is the point.

The point is that some of the local wealthy families were repeatedly burglarized at the time, and unnamed wanted bounties were posted all over the city, and then Diller passed by and prepared to get involved. For example, come to a black and eat black, or throw the pot on the thief's head after doing a vote yourself.

Basically, in terms of Diller's position in the territory of Liberty City, as an intelligence chief, he must not be short of money. Wanting to do something out of the blue, Saul and Stante think that Diller has been lonely for too long, so he wants to show his presence to the world.

For this reason, Staunt even made a cameo appearance as a healer, and it was very expert to conclude that Diller was suffering from a disease called 'autism'.

Anyway, Diller began to lay out his plan, and he started to do it late one night.

It's just a coincidence that Diller and Rose collided with each other during the operation. What Diller later told Saul and Stant privately was that he had saved Rose from danger with his nimble and powerful skills, and finally relied on his charisma to impress others.

This kind of nonsense Saul and the others must not believe it, but it doesn't matter if they talk about it behind closed doors. After a private discussion between Salbeth and Steint behind Diller's back, it was decided that the real version was likely to be like this.

During a theft, Diller met Rose, who was also a thief, and it was inevitable that they would not accept each other.

In the end, somehow, maybe there was a ** collision, maybe not. Or maybe it's just a look from Rose, and Diller has since become a halfling waste who can only run errands and work hard all day long.

There is actually a certain basis for this speculation, after all, looking at Diller's loyal puppy's legs, Stant habitually makes sarcasm, and casts an old father's look of 'the goblin family's stupid son has finally grown up'.

The strange thing is that as long as Rose is there, Diller actually endured it all, and the Diller who exploded with a thorn is gone.

Staunt hurriedly seized the opportunity to beat the reservoir dog, but Diller kept showing forbearance and bluffed Staunt instead. can only control his arrogance and wantonness, lest Diller remember it in his heart and turn over old accounts.

So there is the current situation, as long as Rose is there, Diller is deep and serious, like a halfling university scholar walking among the people, this style makes Saul and Stante very uncomfortable.

This is the fourth layer of the 'Reincarnation Dungeon', and there are some more third- and fourth-order monsters. The types of monsters have also gradually changed from carrion rotten flesh skeletons in the previous layers to hot guys such as gargoyles, ghosts, and fallen banshees.

Now that the autumn breeze is gone, winter is coming at a scheduled pace.

Heavy snowfall flooded the continent and buried the city of freedom.

Such a season seems to be easy for a while, but pleasure and leisure are common,

Even in such a season, Thor and the others still have to take advantage of their free time to hunt demon spirits and pursue their respective powers.

Since hooking up with Rose, Diller approached Thor to advise.

said that he was going to divide the intelligence department in half and assign half of the people to Rose to bring. As the head of the intelligence department, he usually helps Rose from the side, that is, Rose is equivalent to his deputy.

Saul suspects that Diller is likely to have taken the initiative to throw out some humble conditions when he seduced Rose, but that was Diller's own business, as long as he was happy.

Thor still supports this kind of autonomous decentralization, because one more talent in the territory is a good thing after all. What Thor really cares about is the person's character, whether he has a sense of responsibility, etc., which will be judged in future observations.

Now the four of them have come to the secret realm of the dungeon to hone their relationship with each other through battle.

The three of Thor had long passed that stage, so this kind of combat experience was actually for Rose.

This kind of run-in is not only about tactics, but also about deepening mutual understanding and cooperation.

The fourth layer is a little difficult, but the combat power of the four people is quite strong, and there is no danger along the way, and they have already embarked on the way home at this moment.

Rose raised her hand to wipe her chin, and Diller handed him a handkerchief to the side and asked if he needed to wipe his sweat, and the handkerchief Sol remembered that it seemed to be given to Diller by Raz.

Stint, on the other hand, looked left and right in the dungeon, his eyes a little melancholy, as if he had become a lizardman philosopher. Saul suspected that Staunt was too sour from Diller's side to try to redeem himself.

"You guys go back first, and help me get Petty over. Back at the door of the secret realm, Thor waved his hand.

After a while, Petty, wrapped in a thick winter coat, poked her little head out of the door of the secret realm.

After seeing Thor standing by the door with his sword in hand, his eyes closed like a statue, she stepped into the secret realm nervously and expectantly.

Petty has been involved in the administration for a week, and it is undeniable that she has done a good job. She then pestered Thor to say that she wanted to visit the secret realm as motivation to continue working hard in the future.

Originally, Thor would not agree to such a thing, and usually if it was not necessary, even Beth Thor was not allowed to enter the secret realm and run around. After all, although it is a small probability event, once you encounter those secret realm nightmares of the 'Collector', it is almost a mortal situation.

The reason why I agreed to Petty today is because after this shiitake mushroom was bold, he launched an attack of five hundred ducks against Thor, which caused Thor a headache. On the other hand, Thor is ready to send Petty to the next level.

There is no risk in being promoted to the first rank, and it will not sleep for long, and it is always good for the fragile shiitake mushroom to have a stronger physique.

The dim and bloody environment of the dungeon obviously tests the mental endurance of the little shiitake mushroom, but Petty is not afraid. Anyway, when you see the monster rushing out, you just need to scream and hide behind Thor.

"Is it really okay for you to take advantage of me like this?" Thor was a little speechless as he looked at his tightly held arm, and he suspected that if he pulled like this a few more times, the sleeves of his coat would probably be pulled off.

"But in such an environment, isn't your role a guardian knight?" Petty argued.

"I'm not a guardian knight, and you swore that you would never go back even if you became my slave, so I'm your master, my master. Thor emphasized, grimacing, splitting the monster in half.

"You're amazing!" Petty squatted down with her skirt around her skirt and hung her white palm over the demon soul with a look on her face that felt amazing. At the same time, he didn't forget to turn his head and praise Saul, but unfortunately Saul was not happy at all.

"Thanks, it's just a basic fight. Thor clasped his hands, looking like I could save the world at any time.

"This time I came to the secret realm doesn't count, at most you took me to visit, so when I go back, I still have to take me with you next time you go out to play. Petty ignored Thor's stone face and happily made the decision alone.

Thor sighed slightly, he felt that in a few days, it was likely that another shiitake mushroom would go to heaven.

With the strength of Thor now, as long as he doesn't encounter a secret realm nightmare on the first floor of the dungeon, he can walk in all kinds of postures.

More than a dozen demon spirits were collected quickly, and soon Thor was on his way home with Petty.

"Can I really sleep and advance to the next level, and what will happen to me after I get promoted?" Petty looked curious.

"There will be some changes. Saul replied.

"What's changed?" Petty was stunned.

"From a shiitake mushroom to a first-order shiitake mushroom. ”

Petty was just about to fight back, but was slapped on the little ass by Saul, and quickly jumped into the door.

Thor took one last look in the direction of the dungeon, then turned and closed the door to the secret realm.

Back in town, Petty suddenly became much more normal, and the two were silent, encountering many greetings from the people along the way.

Coming to Petty's place of work in the wind and snow, the managers of the administrative department gathered one after another, first greeted Thor, and then began to report the progress of the matter to Petty, just in front of the lord to earn a wave of performance.

Petty quickly issued one instruction after another, and the whole scene was orderly.

There are not many things to do, Petty mainly brought people over today to count the firewood for the winter, and by the way, informed the people to clear the snow in time.

"What's the winter like over there Kennaze?" Thor looked at the little children running and frolicking in the streets, these children were not yet infected by the gray of this world, innocent and energetic.

"It's pretty much the same as here, just prepare some firewood, clothes, food, and so on. However, winter has always been a season of sorrow, and even if we ensure that we are well fed and clothed, we still can't stop some old and weak lives from passing. Petty picked up a handful of snow and threw it out.

"Your tone...... If I hadn't known your true colors, I would have thought you were a lady and lady who I am. Thor teased, and was slapped by Petty's raised hand.

"I'm going to have a stew in the evening, and Sister Beth approves of it. Petty turned to Saul.

"Good. Thor snapped a bowler hat over Petty's head and waved his hand away into the snow.
