8. Don't be eaten
"Hold, hold hands?"
For the invitation of the large demon girl Luo Bai, I suddenly bumped into the deer and was at a loss.
Although I imagined holding hands with my girlfriend, I was extremely flustered when I actually wanted to hold hands with the opposite sex.
I swallowed and foamed at the mouth and reached out to Rose.
"Ahem! What are you doing? ”
I was startled by the hot breath behind my ears, and when I turned my head, I saw that Mr. Hulu had actually come out of my backpack.
I remember that this backpack was stuffed to me by the hostess when I was about to go out.
"You, why are you here?" I asked.
"I'm your watchdog, do you need a reason here?" Mr. Hulu said arrogantly.
I looked at Rose, and I couldn't read any emotion on her face.
She's not going to be angry, is she? I secretly speculated.
"Don't forget he's a hostage!" Mr. Hulu angrily yelled at Luo Bai, "Even if you have the boss's assurance, you must act under my surveillance." ”
"Oh." Luo Bai replied lightly.
She's really angry?! Did I fail my first contact with girls (albeit of a different kind)?
"Luo Bai, this ...... Uh, sorry. "I don't know why I apologized.
"It's okay." Rosewood quickened her pace, and I could catch a distinct glimpse of her face flushing slightly.
"What are you guys playing dumb puzzles? Don't mess around! Mr. Hulu said meaningfully.
The good thing was disturbed by Mr. Hulu, and I said angrily, "Can you fly by yourself?" ”
"No, I'm still a little dizzy." Mr. Hulu said.
"Do you want to pass through here?" An extremely soft voice asked.
"Scared!" Mr. Gourd's face suddenly turned green, and he let out a strange cry and got back into his backpack.
I followed the prestige, and at the entrance of the passage in front, there was a door more than ten meters high, with colorful patterns painted on the door, and a table and a chair were placed next to the door.
A female snake man sits in a chair with her elbows resting on the table, resting her sharpened chin in place.
It can be seen that she is an "extremely thrifty" monster, because the fabric of her clothes is very small, probably because the gatekeeper's salary is not very high.
"Ah, human?!" The gatekeeper called out in surprise when he saw me.
"Well, we're going to the Molten Chicken Ranch." Luo Bai stepped forward and took out the prepared pass.
The gatekeeper raised an eyebrow at Luo Bai, and after expressing his dissatisfaction, he slowly took Luo Bai's pass, looked at it and said, "Your pass is fine." ”
"But," the gatekeeper pointed to me, "is this human the brave?" ”
Luo replied with a blank face: "Yes." There is the boss's signature and a letter of authorization from the supervisor to allow the companions. ”
"Oh~!" The gatekeeper winked at me, "There's nothing wrong with the program." But where is the Overseer? ”
I pointed to the bag behind me and said, "Mr. Hulu is in here." ”
"Mr. Hulu?" She rolled her eyes, then smiled, "I see." ”
Then, she tapped her lips with two crooked fingers, then pressed on the paper, which left the marks of an orange chicken and a black dragon.
"Approved. The passage time is five hours, and your approved area is the Molten Chicken Ranch, so don't run around. She said.
The censorship is so strict!
I think of the layer master mentioned earlier, could it be...... But she didn't look like it.
In my impression, the layer master is at the boss level, and the image should be more tall and mighty, and the momentum should be majestic.
When I followed Luo Bai to enter the gate, the gatekeeper waved his hand at me and said, "I hope you won't be eaten so soon~!" ”
Seeing her lick her red lips with her split tongue, I couldn't help but shudder.
When I entered the door, there was a hall inside, with many doors on the wall, and a small sign hung above the door, which was written in Hanyu Pinyin about the place on the other side of the door.
There are many monsters gathered in the hall, and some monsters wear armbands on their arms, which are dragon patterns.
"Those are the rangers." Luo Bai explained.
After finding the door with "ronghuoxiaoji" written on it, Luo Bai showed the pass to the hunting ground keeper.
We entered the door without a hitch and walked up a winding passage.
I was eager to learn more about the dungeon, so I said, "I didn't expect there to be a ranch in the dungeon." ”
"It's normal to have ranches." Luo Bai said of course.
"Well, I mean, the city is so big, and it can be divided into so many areas for farming." I say.
"It's not as good as it used to be." Luo Bai frowned.
"There are five floors in the dungeon, and there was no special area for breeding like now, and wild slimes, molten chickens and other ingredients are basically concentrated on the first and second floors until humans forcibly occupy the first floor."
"The first level has been taken over by humans?" I was a little surprised by that.
"In order for the dungeon's inhabitants to survive, the Dragon Lord implemented this breeding plan, and rationed it, prohibiting indiscriminate killing." Luo Bai said.
"It wasn't easy." I exclaimed.
It seems that the evil dragon is not just brute force as in the past, and after staying in Dragon City for a day, I feel that the management model here has reached a certain level.
"It's not easy, resisting human aggression while maintaining a livelihood." Mr. Hulu got out of his backpack and asked, "Ha, are you in?" ”
"Are you afraid of that gatekeeper?" I asked.
"Well, it's just a romantic debt." Mr. Hulu's face showed the demeanor of having gone through vicissitudes and standing proudly on a lonely mountain.
But for what he said, Luo Bai and I didn't believe it at all. "Oh."
"How can you do this?!" Mr. Hulu scratched his head angrily, "I'm not lying, really, if we hadn't agreed to keep it secret, I would have told you in detail." ”
"I'm not interested in that." Luo Bai was blunt.
"Ahh Mr. Hulu said he was hurt.
I was amused by Mr. Hulu's expression.
Although they are monsters, in addition to their different appearance from humans, they are actually more straightforward, easy to understand, and will be easy to get along with.
I was about to ask more about the human invasion when it dawned on me and we arrived at our destination, the Molten Chick Ranch.
The pasture is different from the ordinary, there is no blue sky, white clouds and green grass, it is still a cave, but the walls of this cave are full of small holes like honeycombs.
"The prey lives in small holes." "We need to catch as many of them as we can in five hours. ”
I took a pair of gloves from Luo Bai and listened to her continue to instruct: "This is made of the skin of an ice rhinoceros, which can withstand the flames on the molten chicken. They are irritable, so be careful. ”
"Hmm!" I put on my gloves and licked my lips eagerly.
