Chapter 50: Inspired Competitiveness
It seems that this fiancé is not very well treated by someone, Xu Shuo thought to himself.
After Lilian finished peeling, she cut the potatoes into slices, sprinkled salt on them, and held them in front of Xu Shuo.
"Mr. Xu Shuo, you didn't have breakfast, eat some potatoes." Lilian said.
"Thank you." Xu Shuo didn't really have much appetite, but considering Lilian's mood, he still took some to eat, "Are you okay?" ”
"I'm fine." After Lillian finished speaking, the two fell silent.
After that, Lilian didn't know what she was thinking along the way, in short, she was sullen, and Xu Shuo couldn't think of any good words to comfort her, after all, he was completely an outsider in his position, and it was not appropriate to say anything, so he simply chose to sleep with his eyes closed.
At this moment, Xu Shuo's carriage was much better than the shock absorption effect of the last one, so he quickly fell asleep.
When he was woken up by Lilian, the carriage was already outside the entrance to the maze.
"Mr. Xu Shuo, we're here." Lilian's expression seemed to have returned to normal, and she wondered if she had put her worries behind her for the time being.
After getting out of the car, Xu Shuo found that the scenery in front of the maze had changed a lot.
Unlike before, outside the entrance of the labyrinth, tents and wagons were stationed everywhere, and there were adventurers carrying swords and swords, and some people had built a bonfire in front of their tents, and were cooking and roasting food.
"What's going on? The last time I came, there was no one here. Xu Shuo muttered.
Angela's voice appeared at this point.
"It must be that the Precursor you met yesterday sold the information of the labyrinth to the Adventurers' Guild and the Bounty Hunters Guild, and then the guild revealed the location of the labyrinth, so everyone came." Angela said, "You have to hurry, if it's a little later, the monsters will be killed, and you will have to drink the northwest wind." ”
(Wait, won't the monsters in the labyrinth regenerate?) )
"Yes, but it won't be refreshed in seconds like a computer game, the maze of this world has its core, and the kernel will continue to give birth to Warcraft, but this process takes time, and if you kill it all at once, the maze will automatically close, and it will not open again until it recovers to a certain extent." Angela said.
Xu Shuo was a little confused.
Angela continued: "By the way, in the general labyrinth, the demonic beasts in the low-level level will be emptied in less than a week, and the number of layers in the high-level will be a little longer, but it will generally not exceed a month. ”
(So, if you want to rely on the maze to brush the level, do you still need to use the robbery?) )
"yes, otherwise why do you think some bounty hunters are already middle-aged, and their level is only level three or four? This is because Warcraft resources are few and not easy to obtain. Angela explained.
(Can't you gain experience by killing?) )
"Aren't you talking nonsense? If the rules are really set like that, before the Demon King is defeated, most of the human race will be wiped out! Angela said, "The only people who can gain experience through killing are Warcraft and Demons." ”
Xu Shuo smacked his tongue, sure enough, reality is reality, and the setting of the game is still very different, the statement that most of the human race is extinct sounds exaggerated, but there is nothing wrong with thinking about it carefully.
There are not a few guys who do not hesitate to sacrifice others for their own sake.
Lilian noticed that Xu Shuo's face was not very good-looking, and asked with concern, "Mr. Xu Shuo, what's wrong?" ”
Xu Shuo shook his head and said, "It's okay, let's go in quickly." ”
The two left the carriage and coachman outside the labyrinth, and then entered the maze together.
The first layer of the slime lair is still wet, and you can occasionally see some slime corpses, it seems that many people have indeed come in, but the number of corpses is not much, it is estimated that no one needs to level up with slimes, they just killed the guys who stood in the way.
The main room on the first floor was empty, and Angela told Xu Shuo that the main room on the floor that had already been successfully challenged would not be given another trial, so they could go directly to the next floor without having to defeat King Slime again.
On the second floor, Xu Shuo encounters a group of people who are dismembering unicorns.
At first, Xu Shuo was quite wary of this group, because theoretically, in a maze like this, there were very likely to be bad-hearted adventurers who blocked the road and robbed, so he wanted to walk past this group quickly. But after the other party noticed Xu Shuo, he immediately greeted him in a friendly manner.
A man wearing an armband and holding a saw greeted Xu Shuo: "Good afternoon, two friends, are you here to do the quest?" ”
"Hmm." Xu Shuo nodded perfunctorily, and then continued to walk forward.
"Wait a minute, friend!" The man called.
Xu Shuo wanted to ignore him and leave quickly, but Lilian stopped, this eldest lady didn't know the sinister world at all.
"Is there anything wrong with you?" Liliam asked politely.
Xu Shuo sighed silently, and also turned around, wanting to see what was the matter with this man.
"That's right, my name is Qi Chuan, and I'm the business representative of the Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce." The man named Qi Chuan showed Lilian his armband, which was printed with a red leaf, "If you have collected any materials, you can sell them to our Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce, our purchase price is definitely more favorable than the two major guilds, if you are willing to sell, go to the entrance of the maze to find the carriage with maple leaves painted on it, that is our temporary purchase point, it is troublesome to run around with materials, right?" Then sell it to us directly, we ...... Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce."
Sukawa chattered to Lilion about the merits of their chamber of commerce, while his companion focused on dismembering the unicorn without lifting his head, apparently accustomed to the scene.
It turned out to be a salesman. However, since there are ready-made buyers, after killing the Warcraft for a while, you can bring some light materials and sell them back, Xu Shuo thought to himself.
Liliam listened politely without interrupting Sukawa's words, but she obviously realized that except for the first few words, what Sukawa said later was just a cliché, and the expression on her face stiffened a little.
Xu Shuo couldn't stand it anymore and said, "I'm sorry, we still have something to do, let's go first", after speaking, he took Lilian's hand and left.
It wasn't until he couldn't see anyone from the Maple Leaf Chamber of Commerce behind him that Xu Shuo said to Lilian: "You don't have to pay attention to him if you sell advertisements like this, otherwise he will keep talking endlessly." ”
Lilian didn't answer, just looked at the hand held by Xu Shuo in a daze, and her little face was red.
Xu Shuo realized something at this time, and hurriedly let go of Lilian's hand, "I'm sorry, I ...... subconsciously."
"No, it's fine." Lilian shook her head and said with a red face, "Mr. Xu Shuo is no one else......"
Although the latter sentence was very quiet, Xu Shuo still heard it.
The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Fortunately, a unicorn that doesn't look at the atmosphere appeared in front of the two.
"Here, be careful." Xu Shuo drew out his short sword, his eyes were fixed on the unicorn that had been looking at this side at this time, although it was not the first time that he had taken a unicorn as his opponent, Xu Shuo was still very cautious.
"Mr. Xu Shuo, do you want me to come?" Lilion took the bow she was carrying behind her and said, "I'm confident that I can take it with one arrow." ”
When Xu Shuo heard this, he glanced at Lilian beside him with some suspicion, "Really? ”
Without speaking, Lilian drew an arrow from her quiver and put it on the string, drawing her bow and aiming it at the unicorn that was plowing the ground.
The unicorn seemed to be provoked by this move, and it let out an unpleasant roar and rushed towards Lilien.
Xu Shuo set up his short sword with some worry, ready to meet the enemy at any time.
However, before the unicorn could rush to the front, it heard a "whoosh" sound, and the bow and arrow in Lilian's hand shot out like thunder, hitting the center of the unicorn's eyebrows.
The unicorn fell to the ground after being shot, and rolled a few times under the action of inertia, rolling in front of Xu Shuo.
Xu Shuo squatted down to inspect the unicorn corpse, and found that a third of the arrows fired by Lilian had not entered the unicorn's head.
He looked at Lilian in disbelief: "It's really fake, although you say you're Lv3...... But aren't you a teacher? ”
You must know that the last time he killed a unicorn, he first tried to break one of the opponent's legs, and then made up the knife, and Lilian actually used only one trick to get the unicorn, which really made him a little embarrassed in comparison.
At this time, as if she had been prepared, Angela appeared as soon as possible and began to laugh at Xu Shuo.
"Hahaha, Xu Shuo, I found that Lilian's strength is twice as strong as yours! Don't you usually exercise hahaha! So weak! Angela laughed.
(......?!) I'm an otaku?! Damn, what right do you have to laugh at me?! Wait for me...... )
Xu Shuo stood up and said, "Let me come next." ”
His competitive spirit has been fully aroused.
