Chapter 4 Lu Qi's Advice
"Lord of the city, I brought people here."
The little skeleton stepped forward respectfully and saluted.
Xiao Hei also saluted, but it looked very perfunctory, obviously it didn't respect the city lord in his heart.
Lu Qi still maintained a ball shape, after all, he didn't know how to salute this body.
"Hmm." The Snail City Lord glanced at Lu Qi, nodded, and came from the old and weak: "What's your name?" ”
Lu Qi thought about it and reported his name.
"Lu Qi? I remember, it's a number? How did you choose a name for yourself like that? The Snail City Lord asked.
Lu Qi did not answer.
However, his name is indeed a numerical number.
"No matter ......"
Seeing that Lu Qi didn't answer, the snail city lord also gave up asking.
Next, the snail city lord made up an identity card and handed it to Lu Qi, which was his identity document, although it was useless, but it was full of ritual.
Lu Qi swallowed the iron brand into his stomach and put it away for the time being.
"Shred, this kid will be handed over to you, arrange a place for him." The Snail City Lord then said, "Also, I will do as you say in the past two days. ”
"Yes, Lord Castle."
……
This is the end of the brief meeting ceremony, and the little skeleton leaves the city lord's room with and the dog, goes to the dormitory area, and chooses a house for Lu Qi.
On the way, Xiao Hei couldn't help asking:
"Chesi, what advice do you have for the city lord again?"
The little skeleton sighed, "In a few days, humans will come down to track down the whereabouts of the undead, and I propose that the city lord reduce the number of monsters produced, save resources, and wait for this wave of limelight to pass, and then reinvest resources to produce monsters." ”
Xiao Hei couldn't help but admire: "It's worthy of shredding, and there are many ideas." ”
The little skeleton shook his head, "What kind of idea is this, it can only be a suggestion, after all, we don't have many resources at hand, so we can save a little." ”
"Chesi, you are too modest, in my opinion, it is better for you to be the city lord." Xiao Hei said.
The little skeleton glared at the dog and motioned for him to shut up.
Lu Qi thought for a while, took over the conversation, and asked, "The monsters in the dungeon are all controlled and produced by the city lord?" Including you and me? ”
"No, no, no, the city lord produces just ordinary monsters without intelligence, like us who can think and have the ability to act independently, they are naturally born monsters, and they are different." Little Black replied for the little skeleton.
"But the main body is still those ordinary monsters without intelligence, and only when there are more of them can we continue to obtain resources." The little skeleton explained further.
Lu Qi pondered for a while, and thought of a possibility in his heart, so he asked, "Is this resource obtained by monsters hunting humans?" ”
"Oh, you're so smart, we didn't even say you got it!" Xiao Hei pushed his head to show praise, after all, it is not the kind of yin and yang weirdness.
The little skeleton nodded and said, "Yes, as you think, the source of all the resources in the dungeon is humans, to be precise, from all kinds of creatures outside the dungeon, but because nine out of ten are humanoid, they are generally called humans." ”
"And when a human dies here, the dungeon absorbs ...... A kind of flesh essence, the city lord then uses the flesh essence and converts it into resource points, which can be used to create new monsters, and the monsters go to hunt humans to achieve a cycle. ”
"The same goes for races like elves, dwarves, orcs, and more."
"But as you can see, we're ...... now The resource turnover has fallen into a dry stage, and the monsters produced by the city lord can't win against humans at all, and if we don't kill humans, we can't get resources. ”
"It's all the waste city lord who has caused us to fall to this point." Xiao Hei blamed.
"Xiao Hei, don't talk about this in the future, the city lord was also the pet of the big city lord back then, and it is definitely not as unbearable as you said, but he is just old." The little skeleton defended the big snail.
The lord of the big city, that is, the lord of the last layer of the underground, that is, the controller of the entire dungeon, is rumored to be the existence of the same level as the gods, and all the rules of the dungeon are written by him.
"When you are old, you should abdicate and make way for Xian, occupy the pit and don't!" Xiao Hei snorted lightly, still not changing his attitude towards the big snail.
As he was talking, the dormitory area arrived, and the little skeleton chose a relatively spacious room for Lu Qi, which was paved with a lot of thatch.
Lu Qi jumped on the dog's head and rolled on the thatch twice, softly, feeling okay, and then the little skeleton asked him to spit out the identity card and help hang it at the door.
In this way, Lu Qi can be regarded as settling down.
"Oh, Lu Qi, there's a monster party at night, do you want to participate?" The little skeleton that was about to leave asked back.
"No, I want to take a break." Lu Qi twisted his body to refuse.
The little skeleton didn't force it, turned around and took Xiao Hei away.
The moment the door was closed, the surroundings suddenly quieted down, Lu Qi, who was alone in the room, was there, and he wanted to rest, but his heart suddenly became quite complicated.
From being cut into ribbons by the little skeleton, all the way he has seen and heard, they are telling him one thing...... He must be the enemy of humanity.
In this regard, Lu Qi has no diaphragm in his heart, which is naturally impossible, after all, he was once a human being.
Although when he was a human being, he killed a lot of his kind, after all, once he went out of the city, he was basically not controlled by the law, and there were bandits who killed people and goods, fanatics who sought money and killed people, and some groups that wanted to kill him because they violated the interests of some people.
But no matter how you put it, the situation is different, to be precise, the difference between legitimate self-defense and indiscriminate killing of innocent people.
What's more, the humans who came to the dungeon were not all bad people, and there were many people who chose to hang their lives on their belts in order to support their families.
The more he thought about it, the more melancholy Lu Qi became, and he rolled on the grass uncomfortably.
"But monsters, in essence, are also innocent ......"
Lu Qi suddenly stopped rolling and began to think about this problem from the perspective of a monster.
Humans are invaders in dungeons, and no matter how many families stand behind them and how many things they carry, for monsters, they are the villains who come to destroy their homes.
It's like if you catch a thief and he cries that there is an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child, can you clear the charge of stealing?
Obviously not, it should be sentenced for a few years, and it will have to be sentenced for a few years.
Besides, there are so many opportunities to make money in human society, you have to venture into the dungeon......
So since you are here, do you have to take the initiative to take the risk of death?
It's all adults who say that you have to be responsible!
Take 10,000 steps back, he Lu Qi opened the net to the human race, so when the human race meets him, will he choose to open the net?
The answer is...... Definitely not! Because he's a monster now!
So, maybe it's a good idea to use this as a justification for self-defense?
Thinking about it, Lu Qi gradually figured out a lot of things, many of which were self-comforting, but he finally calmed down the contradictions in his heart, and at the same time made up his mind: Since he has become a monster, he will honestly be a monster and do what a dungeon monster should do!
So, Lu Qi decisively got out of the crack in the door, and he was ready to help this group of down-and-out monsters.
…………
"Monsters over here, let me see your hands!"
"Monsters over there, let me hear your voices!"
"Come, shout our slogan!"
"There are no humans!"
……
"Oh, Shri, when is this Nana going to shut that damn mouth." Blackie put the dog's head on the table, his tongue licking the bones on the plate.
"Oh, Blackie, can you please stop me talking?" The little skeleton pressed its head with its bony hand and glanced at Xiao Hei.
"Oh, no."
As soon as Xiao Hei finished speaking, his nose sniffed, and his eyes lit up, "The is here." ”
Lu Qi saw Xiao Hei running towards him, dodged a lime and collided, accurately dodging the tongue of a certain dog, and moving the precise position to the dog's head.
Not far away, the little skeleton secretly praised.
"Oh,, didn't you say you wanted to rest?" Xiao Hei asked, tilting his head.
"I'm looking for shredding when there's something to do." Lu Qi said, asked Xiao Hei to bring himself to Che Si, and said, "I have a few questions I want to ask you." ”
"Okay." The little skeleton nodded.
"It's so noisy here, I want to change places." Lu Qi said. When he entered the lobby, he noticed a weakness in himself, afraid of sound.
As soon as there were too many voices, his body would unconsciously begin to tremble, which was very uncomfortable.
So the three monsters found a secluded place.
"I want to ask, how much hay do we have here? It's the kind in my room. Lu Qi began to ask.
", don't you think there is too little grass and you panic?" Xiao Hei quipped, "Won't it? Aren't slimes quite soft? ”
"Shut up." The little skeleton was keenly aware that Lu Qi was here this time, and he was talking about business!
So he changed his previous lazy appearance, put on a serious look, and responded: "That hay is the city lord's ration, but the city lord generally only eats the most tender part, and the rest of the parts will be saved to dry and kept for other uses." You're going to say the quantity...... There are six warehouses, and a large meadow field. ”
"That shouldn't be a problem." Lu Qi pondered for a while, and then made up his mind again: "I have a way, so that none of the humans who will gather here to look for the undead clan in the near future will not be able to go back!" ”
Hearing this, the little skeleton's body trembled, and there was a clicking sound between the joints.
"...... like this" Lu Qi told his plan in full.
……
The party ended, and all the monsters began to prepare in an orderly manner under the assignment of the little skeleton.
A day later, at noon, the human world.
At this time, twenty-four hours have passed since the kingdom issued the order to track down the mages of the undead clan, and a large number of large mercenary groups appointed by the kingdom with heavy money, adventurers attracted by bounties, and a small number of righteous people from various races have arrived at the entrance of the dungeon.
As far as the eye can see, there are countless heads and flags.
"The convoy of the four highnesses, no one else gives way!"
In the distance, a splendid carriage galloped in, splitting through the crowd and coming to the front.
As soon as the carriage stopped, a young man with light blue hair and high-end armor walked on the carriage, and the small crown on his head reminded the surroundings that this person was noble.
"His Highness Rex!"
"His Highness Rex!"
……
The people around saluted.
One of the attendants beside Regus hurriedly stepped forward to introduce the salute to Regus.
"This is Kohler, the deputy head of the White Heart Mercenary Regiment, and this time the White Heart Mercenary Group brought three front-line squads over."
"This is Eriske, the leader of the fourth brigade of the Lei Shanlan Mercenary Regiment."
"This is ......"
"There are also a few people standing over there, they are representatives of the elves, dwarves, and orcs, Your Highness, go over and say hello, if you can get their support......" the attendant reminded.
Although it is now the world of the human race, as the three overlords of the past, it is still necessary to give some face, after all, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. Therefore, if a certain prince is closer to the important people of these races, the right to speak will naturally be a little higher than that of other princes.
Rex understood, and stepped forward to say hello to the people of the three clans.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you don't have to be polite, I was just ordered to track down the undead clan, and I don't want to get involved in your politics." Elven Wind Whisperer. Lan tactfully refuses to deal with Rex.
The orc Coleman who was present this time also had an attitude, even more indifferent than the elves, and he didn't even want to say a word, which made Rex a little embarrassed.
Fortunately, the representative of the dwarf clan hurriedly stepped forward to talk to Rex, which eased the atmosphere.
After a round of greetings, Rex called the guards and asked about the situation.
"Report to Your Highness, since the three escaped yesterday, we immediately cordoned off this place and cleared the field, and no one has been in or out since." The captain of the soldiers responded.
"Well done." Regus patted the Soldier Captain on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement.
"Your Highness, it seems that the undead clan is most likely on the first or second floor of the basement, let's search the first floor, and then the second floor." The attendant on the side stepped forward and said.
"What about the third and fourth floors?" Prince Rex asked.
"Your Highness, the monsters after the third floor are very powerful, and we have not officially opened the road to the third floor, we all go to the third and fourth floors underground through secret passages. Even so, we can only reach the special areas on the third or fourth floor, these areas are all dead ends, and if the undead go in, we can come to the urn to catch turtles. The squire responded.
"Understood." Rex nodded, drew his sword, stood at the entrance of the cave, and after saying a bunch of beautiful words, he waved his big sword and took the lead in killing his subordinates.
The rest of the team followed, answering the call and carefully searching the basement floor, leaving no corner unturned.
I have to say that the shadow brought by the undead race to various races is too serious, and just the words of three adventurers can lead to such a large number of people and horses.
There is no way, every appearance of the undead in history is the beginning of a disaster, and they cannot be sloppy.

The large chapter of nearly 4,000 words will not be split.
