Chapter 56: Master, I'm Back
Sure enough, within three minutes, everyone felt a slight tremor on the ground, and everyone looked up the slope, and they could vaguely see the smoke raised by the giant beast.
"Everyone, prepare!" The Persian cat raised his hand and signaled, and all the adventurers clenched their weapons and were ready to fight!
Soon, everyone can clearly see the furious thunder lizards, in front of them, Shangguan is fleeing in a panic, which can be maintained outside the attack range of the thunder lizard, and the thunder lizard behind it emits a lightning bolt from time to time, and every time it grabs Shangguan's heel and slashes on the ground, and this little ghost is also forced to wolf bรจi, and occasionally stumbles, causing the thunder lizards to discharge again and again, thrilling and abnormal.
"Is this kid okay?" A tall and thin bald man frowned and said, "It's all here, let's go up and help him!" โ
"Don't act rashly!" Another grim-faced man reminded, "They're about to go into a minefield, Shirley, help me detect that kid's speed!" The second half of his sentence was said to a blonde woman behind him, the woman was sweet and cute, but she was obviously formally trained to act, took out her electronic equipment and skillfully operated it, and reported in just a few seconds: "That man's target is too small, and the speed is difficult to count, but the thunder lizard chasing behind him, the maximum speed of running downhill has exceeded eighty kilometers per hour!" โ
The man sneered when he heard this: "So that little ghost should be so fast?" No, at least it should be faster! โ
The bald man before was unconvinced: "Faster? Bone wolf, you're exalting him a little too much! It's at least five or six kilometers from here to the top of the cliff, and it's not bad to be able to maintain a speed of eighty miles and run all the way up to five or six kilometers. โ
The man known as the Bone Wolf shook his head: "I'm still afraid of underestimating him!" That's really all he was doing right now, but if he couldn't even shake off the Thunder Lizards, how could he lead them all the way down? โ
As he was talking, Shangguan had already come to the minefield, where the adventurers had planted various mines in advance, some of them were technology-based, some were magic-based, and they were specially prepared for the thunder lizard. However, looking at Shangguan's pace, there is no intention of slowing down and turning at all, could it be that this little ghost is so frightened that he is so frightened that he wants to plunge into the minefield?
It's here! At the moment when Shangguan had already stepped into the minefield with one foot, a smile appeared on the bone wolf's face.
Because he saw that the little ghost, who had been pretending to be panicked, had a sharp look in his eyes the moment he stepped into the minefield. Immediately afterward, his body turned into an illusion, and his speed suddenly increased, as if he were a ghost, cutting through the minefield.
And those thunder lizards behind him still stupidly plunged headlong, causing a series of explosions!
Even if it is an ordinary individual in the thunder lizard, it can be called a giant creature, their basic attributes may not be high, but the vitality brought by the huge individual is extremely strong, each head has more than 5,000 health points, and the damage of the general mine is hundreds, even if it is a science fiction or magic prop, it is only more than a thousand points of power, and three or two are really not enough to kill these behemoths.
But don't forget, adventurers aren't idle. There were a total of four thunder lizards that were lured down by Shangguan this time, three of which were adults and one cub. After the baptism of mines, the young beast had been killed on the spot, and the three adult beasts were also in a state of serious injury, and the adventurers rushed forward, waving their knives and shooting their guns, and killed the three monsters in a moment.
The four Thunder Lizards dropped a total of two treasure chests, which is a slightly lower drop rate considering their strength. However, the adventurers were in high spirits, they didn't expect the first battle to be so easy, thinking that there were hundreds of thunder lizards on the top of the cliff, which were all living treasure chests, and the adventurers were full of expectations for the next battle.
According to the rules set before the operation, the treasure chests dropped by the Thunder Lizard were kept by the Persian Cat, the initiator, and the boxes were opened and distributed after the operation was completed, which was to avoid anyone retreating in advance. Of course, the Persian cat that keeps the treasure chest also has to sign an agreement, and there is a system to restrict it from being smuggled. Not only that, but also applied to the system for a death drop function, which is to set these treasure chests to drop out after the Persian cat dies to prevent the Persian cat from accidentally dying in battle, then everyone is in vain.
Next, Shangguan led several groups of monsters in a row, more than four or five, less than one or two, and they could come back in half an hour at most, and the adventurers below who were waiting for work only needed to go up to mend the knife at the critical moment, and they were extremely comfortable.
However, after a few rounds, two problems were exposed.
First, the risk-takers responsible for laying mines have quit. If it's an energy or skill generated mine, it's good to say, most of the technology mines are bought with money, once or twice is considered to contribute to the team, come a few more times, whose mines are distressed. Thinking about it from another angle, these people who are willing to plant mines were originally under the idea of killing monsters as soon as possible and getting a killing reward. But now I found that these thunder lizards have rough skin and thick flesh, and they were not killed by a few mines at all, and in the end they were half-dead and picked up by others, which is really not cost-effective.
Therefore, the landmine planters first made a fuss, and finally it was decided that the cost of laying the mines would be shared equally by everyone, and the adventurers who provided the mines would receive a subsidy. After all, it's just an alliance, and in the end it's not in the same team, and there are many problems.
Second, it is Shangguan's behavior of attracting blame. Because Shangguan seemed extremely relaxed these few times, after a few times, everyone could see that this kid's panic was completely faked, and in fact, he was able to play with those stupid thunder lizards all the way. This also made the other adventurers mumble, could it be that the Thunder Lizard was actually not that dangerous? The previous rumors were all exaggerated?
You must know that it was because Shangguan's behavior was very dangerous at the beginning, so when everyone distributed the benefits, the Persian cat and Shangguan had the right of first choice, and all the things that were opened in the treasure chest, these two imps could unconditionally take three pieces first, and then distribute the rest fairly.
At first, the adventurers didn't have any opinions, but now that they see, these two imps have taken advantage of it! Such an easy job can be exchanged for such a huge profit, pie in the sky! So other adventurers began to volunteer to take over the place of Shangguan to pull the monster, or go together, of course, they also have a share of the priority.
For these people, Leslie and other discerning masters still scoffed, and they all restrained their subordinates and the people around them not to join in the fun, but the more scattered and lonely adventurers with no reputation and average strength, the happier they were.
"Bone wolf, aren't you going to try it?" Seeing that more and more people questioned Shangguan's strange behavior, the bald man who looked down on Shangguan before hid in the crowd, smiled and encouraged the cold man beside him, and the bone wolf just smiled: "Lao Gai, if you are not satisfied, you can go by yourself, don't pull me!" โ
"Yo-he!" The bald man known as Lao Gai said with a surprised tone: "The bone wolf known as the silver spear for thousands of miles actually confessed? Don't you think you're as good as a little ghost? โ
The bone wolf looked at the adventurers who were vying to apply to go up the mountain to pull monsters together, and sneered: "If you just want to fight, I am not afraid of anyone, but for the job of pulling monsters, I am afraid that no one present is more suitable than this Shangguan." It's been a few hours, and the other adventurers have spent most of their time recuperating, only this kid keeps going up and down the mountain, looking for monsters, and now he doesn't look like he's in any physical strength at all, and this endurance and physical fitness skills alone are not comparable to ordinary adventurers! Dare to rely on two people to unite such a big alliance, these two guys must have enough confidence! โ
As he spoke, the bone wolf smiled at Lao Gai: "Of course, this is just my side of the story, if you don't believe it, you can go to the top of the mountain together to see if what I said is right!" โ
Lao Gai snorted coldly: "That's it, I'm not interested!" โ
While the two were talking, the adventurers had already discussed countermeasures, and unexpectedly, in the end, Shangguan actually agreed that other adventurers would go with him to pull monsters, but they couldn't bring more, at most they could only bring two more people, otherwise the target was too big and easy to attract the attention of the entire clan, and it would be difficult to do it at that time.
In the end, after a simple selection, to put it bluntly, everyone recommended each other and briefly demonstrated their abilities, two adventurers who were good at hiding and escaping joined Shangguan, and the three of them took advantage of the night to walk towards the top of the ramp together.
Meanwhile, in a tavern in the bazaar behind the Second Tower Fortress on the Middle Guard Road (which feels like a real trouble), a slender man is gulping down ale. Around him, more than a dozen able-bodied men had fallen drunk, and large wooden beer glasses were tumbling on the ground.
One of the bartenders at the bar stood on the counter and rolled a piece of cardboard into a megaphone and shouted, "Ladies and gentlemen, the king of our bar is about to be born today, and if no one else can beat this Mr. Iter, then he will be the lucky customer who will spend all his money for free tonight!" โ
It's the bar's weekly drinking competition, and anyone can take part in that night, and if they drink more than everyone else, he'll get all his money free tonight. In order to get this lucky spot, countless drinkers competed, but they all fell into the hands of this emaciated strange man in the end.
Just as the bartender was about to announce that Mr. Iter was the champion, the door of the bar suddenly opened, and a purple-haired woman dressed in a strange costume walked in from outside. This woman is beautiful, noble, and has a bright smile, but she reveals a faint murderous aura.
"Which clan is in charge?"
"It's not like it, how can their women be so good-looking?"
Some of the drinkers present were discussing, and they had the impression that only the clansmen who were wearing similar styles of clothes were dominated by the heroes of the guard.
The woman didn't care about it, and walked straight up to the victorious Iter. The bartender stepped forward to talk to him: "Is this beauty going to participate too?" This Iter has already drunk twenty cups, girl, you have to take care of your body! โ
The woman smiled at the bartender, "I'm not competing, you can declare him victorious!" With that, she looked deeply at the victor, and then knelt down on one knee: "Master, I'm back!" โ
