Chapter 18 No Man's Land
"That...... It's for my sake, I'm ......"
After Lin An asked this question, Hei Lili, who was originally hiding beside Dong Chan'er, suddenly said such a half-sentence without a beginning or an end.
Before she could finish speaking, Dong Chan'er opened her mouth to interrupt Hei Lili's stubborn speech.
Staring at Lin An's eyes, he said firmly.
"Has Senior Brother Lin heard about the joint upgrade?"
"I've heard that when two power systems can complement each other, when they sign a natal contract with one person at the same time, they will undergo some kind of mutation and even break through and upgrade because of the unique connection between the two, right?"
Lin An thought back to the knowledge in his mind about the joint upgrade, and then thought of the unique and powerful spiritual abilities of those little phantom demons in the psychedelic forest.
The answer to the matter didn't need to be thought about much, and it appeared clearly in front of him.
"Senior sister, but you want to get a phantom cub?"
"That's right, if you can, it's best to be the heir of a great demon who has not yet reached the rank."
Dong Chan'er's admitting was happy, but it made Lin An a little difficult to judge.
To complete Senior Sister Dong's request, there is no doubt that it is necessary to go deep into the center of the psychedelic forest to complete this commission.
In normal times, this is not a difficult task.
But now, it is obvious that the psychedelic forest has reached the most critical juncture of the secret realm upgrade, and no one knows if there will be any troublesome creatures in the center of the forest now.
Rao is Lin An is holding the little detective Ji who has upgraded the detector armor in his hand, and he still feels that he is not so sure of going deep into the dense forest.
But...... Yes, but under the great reward, there will be warriors.
The price offered by Senior Sister Dong is not high.
An official summoner who has signed a high-level bloodline beast gives up all the proceeds of one of her expeditions to himself.
If he was lucky, Lin An's gains from this expedition alone would be enough for him to make a whole set of Warden armors.
And it's the same version that hasn't shrunk.
Lin An didn't answer, he thought about it and felt that this task still had value worth taking.
Moreover...... Even a summoner apprentice like him, who has no background, can get a soul suppression bullet for self-defense.
As the daughter of the Qianfan Chamber of Commerce, a giant shipping association, Senior Sister Dong Chan'er must have a stronger hole card to get out of trouble.
After thinking about it again, Lin An finally agreed.
However, in order to do insurance, he still put forward an additional condition with the girls of the cute opportunity.
"In that case...... I agree to continue this expedition.
It's just that...... To be on the safe side, there is one condition you have to agree to me. ”
Lin An's expression was extremely serious, and Dong Chan'er was not surprised by this.
"You say, I'll try to be satisfied."
"I'll do my best to help you with the task of capturing a phantom, but until then I must have the right to suspend the retreat at any time!"
Lin An's tone was very heavy when she said this, and Senior Sister Dong nodded without any hesitation.
After the discussion, there was no need for the group to stay where they were.
Because they had seen the power of Lin An's detector, everyone did not hesitate to believe all the information provided by Lin An this time.
The true vision range with a radius of five kilometers is already not small, and thanks to this, Lin An's team can always accurately find those zero-order demonic beasts hiding in the shadows.
Originally, Whittina was still on the way, and kept collecting some strangely shaped exotic mushrooms, planning to use them as raw materials for making psychedelic potions, and subsidize her income when she went out.
But after seeing Lin An's amazing search efficiency, this cute flat-chested girl was like a big brown bear breaking buds, and threw away all the mushrooms she picked before.
Help dispose of the soul bones stripped from those spirit beasts.
But the mechanical erha beside her, perhaps has been coveting the mushroom in her master's hand for a long time.
As Whittina poured out the mushrooms, her mechanical wolf sucked the mushroom storm into her mouth.
Whether the mechanical beast that has awakened the machine soul can taste the taste of food, Lin An really doesn't know this kind of thing.
The strange mushroom, which can be a specialty of the psychedelic forest, will definitely be affected by a little mental impact if you bite into the umbrella cover so much.
I saw this mechanical erha, after eating it in a big bite, he lowered his head aggrievedly and kept humming something.
But it didn't look like he had learned a lesson, so he hummed while eating the mushrooms that the flat-chested girl had dropped.
When it was done, the whole team was up again.
Regarding the strange performance of Whitina's summoning beast, everyone present was not surprised, and there was no intention to delve into it.
After all, there is no need to be so clear about what is going on in the mind of the mechanical erha.
In this way, in the process of fighting monsters and hunting, the group thought about the depths of the dense forest step by step.
During this time, Lin An's detector also noticed several biological signals from other teams.
Looking at the direction they were traveling, it was clear that they were preparing to evacuate this psychedelic forest.
Lin An was still suggesting whether to ask those people about the things that happened in the depths of the dense forest.
As a result, Senior Sister Dong seriously rejected the proposal.
If it had been before, this paranoid blonde beauty would never have talked more nonsense to him after ignoring Lin An's advice.
But today is different...... As the daughter of a merchant.
No matter how much Dong Chan'er despises men, she will inevitably admire a talent like Lin An with unique skills.
What's more, he also saved Hei Lili's life at a critical moment, and the combination of the two points was enough for her to treat Lin An with a relatively peaceful attitude.
"It's important to remember that two different expedition teams should never meet in the wild unless necessary."
"Why?" Lin An asked a little puzzled, but he quickly reacted.
Although in this world, there are also most of the legal codes of the previous life.
But no matter how perfect the law is, it can't withstand the weakness of enforcement.
This kind of thing is true for the Summoning Master, and it is also true for these expedition teams in the "No Man's Land".
Shipwrecked pedestrians and large-scale brigades will not arouse suspicion and fighting among the expedition team.
On the contrary, an adventure team of the same size is more likely to become a car robber road rage in this environment.
After figuring this out, Lin An stopped talking.
At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the crowd, which had traveled about 40 kilometers, also gathered around the ground and set up a fire to prepare for a rest.
The cooking was done by a blue-haired girl named Larakuya.
This girl's appearance and personality are like the kind of timid and shy librarians in Japanese comic works.
Lin An has been in the team for so long, and she hasn't said a word to herself.
The others were helping to find fuel, others relaxing and massaging each other.
Only Lin An, who was the hardest, set up a furnace, planning to refine those soul bones collected during the day and make them all into easy-to-carry soul steel!
