Chapter 45: Emergencies

Feeling the magic power that became abundant in his body, Lu Li slowly opened his eyes, stood up and shook the grit on his body, and asked without looking back, "How long have I been lying down?"

"Forty minutes! In terms of the average time it takes to absorb energy and level up an adventurer, you're pretty fast. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 Info" Agnes replied with a smile.

Since she had just finished meditating, her magic had recovered to a certain extent, so she looked much more energetic than before, and her eyes, which had been dull, were rejuvenated.

"Forty minutes? is so long, why don't I feel it at all?" Lu Li raised his eyebrows in surprise, and quickly looked down at his watch, only to find that it had really been so long.

He seemed to be a little incredulous, he only felt that a moment had passed, but why did it actually exceed half an hour, could it be that the spiritual world and the real world had a different speed of time?

Agnes seemed to sense something, and hurriedly explained: "When absorbing energy, adventurers will be in a relatively static state, at this time they will not feel everything in the outside world, they will only remember a few minutes after regaining consciousness, so you don't feel anything unusual, it is said that according to each person's physique, some people will even fall into a coma for more than a few hours." ā€

"I see...... Lu Li nodded in realization, then turned around and glanced at the dwarf who was still asleep, and sighed helplessly. "Alas...... This damn guy won't wake up for a while, so why don't we go back and rest for the night, and then come back tomorrow to explore the second floor?"

Meow Lori, who was sitting on the side, shrugged her shoulders indifferently: "Uncle, you have the final say!"

"What about you?" Lu Li turned around to ask for the opinions of the two brothers behind him.

As a rookie team leader, he knows very well that he still knows too little about dungeons, and it doesn't hurt to hear more about what his teammates have seen.

"Boss, I just want to ask, why do you insist on leaving after dark? You must know that the dungeon is so big, few adventurers can explore the entire level in a daytime, just find a relatively safe place to camp and rest, not to mention that we have so many supplies. ā€

Apollonius, who had always been outspoken, said the question he always wanted to ask.

At the age of sixteen, he can't hide any thoughts at all, plus after so many days of getting along, there is no barrier for a long time, and he can say whatever he wants.

"Of course, it's to avoid the monster riot! haven't you encountered it?" Lu Li asked with a frown.

I don't know why, he suddenly had a bad premonition, and what happened to him that night was probably not normal.

Apollonius hurriedly shook his head: "No! We have been exploring the dungeon for so long, and we have never heard of a monster riot at night, at most there are several special monsters that only appear at night." ā€

As if remembering something, Diodorus's face suddenly turned male, and he quickly asked: "Then can you describe the scene in detail, such as the specific time, how many monsters there were, how long it lasted, and so on!"

Lu Li recalled for a few seconds, and quickly said in an unhurried voice: "It was about seven days ago in the evening, I had only passed through the portal not long ago, and I was cautiously exploring around, and within a few hours, the sky suddenly became completely dark, and there was no light at all, and after a while, a wolf howl sounded all around.

I noticed that the situation was not good, so I immediately found a large tree nearby and climbed to the top to hide.

And guess what happened?

I saw monsters with no end in sight rushing from afar, frantically rushing to the south, and the scene was so spectacular that it took more than forty minutes to an hour to pass through!

I even saw giant two-headed lizards that were more than five meters tall, and they didn't have any conflict with each other, as if they were migrating, moving from one place to another.

In addition, that night, I also noticed a strange phenomenon, that is, the magnetic force was disturbed, and the compass on the watch began to point everywhere until the sun came up. ā€

After hearing this detailed description, Diodorus stood up suddenly, and said in a tone full of fear, "Oh my God, if I guessed correctly...... This is the eighth layer, and a second lord has been born!"

"Second lord?"

It was the first time Lu Li heard of such a strange thing, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes.

After all, according to the creation myth said by the sage of Flastus, there should be only one lord in each dungeon, they are the resentment of the killed gods and demons, and they are affected by the power of the demon king Cook, even if they are defeated, they can be resurrected within a few hours, and he never knew that there would be two lords on one level.

"Yes, boss, if what you just said doesn't have the slightest element of bragging, then I'm 100% sure that a new lord has appeared on the eighth floor.

In fact, every ten years, a certain level of the dungeon will give birth to something called the Seed of Power, and any monster that obtains it will gain infinite power in just a few seconds, and thus be promoted to an extremely powerful lord.

Once this new lord appears, it will cause the monsters of this level to split, half of which will be thrown into the new lord's command, and some monsters will be teleported from higher levels, and under its leadership, they will rush out of the dungeon and attack Kempera.

The guild stipulates that as long as an adventurer discovers a similar anomaly, he must report it immediately, and if it is found to be true, he will not only get a rich reward, but also the title of Warden!

Diodorus looked very excited, especially at the mention of the honorary title, the whole person trembled with excitement, as if in his eyes, it was a treasure that no money could buy, and it was worth exchanging his life for.

It was only at this moment that Lu Li really understood why the Sage of Flastos said that in the eyes of true adventurers, money is just an accessory, and what really attracts them to continue to explore is honor, supreme honor, the honor that surpasses their predecessors.

All material, power, and status, in the face of these honors, have all become worthless stones on the side of the road!

After a moment of silence, he raised his head and asked in a solemn tone, "So what do you think we should do now?"

Diodorus replied without hesitation: "Of course, return to the city immediately and report this matter to the guild!

"Very good, then we'll turn around now!" Lu Li decisively stopped his intention to continue moving forward, and led the team to turn around and walk towards the exit of the second floor.
