"Mr. Xu Shuo, don't you think this story is very romantic?" Lilian said.

Xu Shuo shook his head, "What should I say...... It may be a bit like that, but if I want to take a lifetime to find a woman who is not related to me, I don't do it, romance is romantic, but it's too silly. ”

"But Mr. Xu Shuo, if your beloved woman is gone, won't you go to find her?" Lilian asked.

"If you look for it, you will find ......" Xu Shuo thought about it, indeed, when the man in the story first started looking for his beloved goddess, he didn't know that he would spend the rest of his life for it, "I'll probably look for it for a while, if I can find it soon, of course, but if I look for it for several years, things still don't make progress, I will probably give up." ”

"Why?" Lilian asked in a surprised tone, "Isn't it a beloved?" ”

"Uh......"

Lilian's questioning made Xu Shuo feel like a scumbag in his answer, but he really thought so, if the person you like disappears and you can't find her after looking for a long time, shouldn't you give up and find another partner?

"What about you, Lilian? Will you keep looking? Xu Shuo asked rhetorically.

"Well, I will." Lilian replied without hesitation.

Xu Shuo stopped and glanced back at Lilian.

Lilian's eyes were firm and confident, and there seemed to be some kind of dazzling light from her body, which Xu Shuo had seen in several different people - a gentle class leader with a sense of responsibility, and a Chinese teacher who liked to talk about chicken soup for the soul.

It's like telling others how high their literacy is, dazzlingly, selflessly radiating light, no matter who sees these people, they will feel that they are the pillars of this society.

Xu Shuo admired such people, but he also stayed away, because these glowing guys would always remind him and make him understand that he was just a despicable villain.

(yes, I'm just an otaku who only knows how to play games in the corner of the bottom of society.) ）

The distance between him and Liliam seemed to be out of reach at this moment.

"What's wrong, Mr. Xu Shuo?" Lilian said.

"Nothing." Xu Shuo smiled, "I think it...... She deserves to be the eldest lady. ”

"Huh? What do you mean? Liliam asked.

Xu Shuo shook his head and continued to walk along the trail.

The atmosphere became a little strange, and neither of them spoke anymore.

The trail twisted and turned, getting narrower and narrower the further back they went, from more than two meters wide at the beginning, gradually narrowing to one meter, half a meter, and finally, just when they were about to have no way to get off their feet, Xu Shuo also hesitated to return the same way, a rope appeared.

It was a rope embedded in the ground with a grappling hook, and I don't know if it was originally in the labyrinth, or if it was left here by other adventurers. The other end of the rope leads to a protruding rock about fifty meters below the cliff.

"Do you want to go down?" Liliam glanced at the rocks below, feeling a little worried.

Xu Shuo nodded, "Well, after all, there is no other way to go, let's go down and have a look." ”

After the two discussed, it was decided that Xu Shuo would go down first to see if it was safe, and after confirming that there was no problem, he would gesture for Lilian to come down.

It was the first time for Xu Shuo to climb such a long rope, he used his right hand to wrap a looping circle around the rope, and his right foot also wrapped the rope, and then the whole person slid down a short section.

Although he had done a cursory inspection beforehand, he was still worried about the instability of the grappling hook on his head and caused him to fall, but fortunately there was no such accident until the end. Except for the fact that the rope swayed a little in the second half, there were no major problems.

After falling on the rock, Xu Shuo found a new rope, which was also embedded in the rock surface by the grappling hook, and led to the bottom, but this rope was obviously much longer than the one he had just climbed, and at a glance, he could not clearly see where the other end of the rope was, and it seemed to lead to the bottom of the cliff.

Xu Shuo waved his hand to Lilien above, signaling that the latter could come down, and when he saw Lilion start to climb down, he began to grasp the rope on the rock and slide down.

At first, because he was afraid of accidentally falling, Xu Shuo has been sliding quite cautiously, so it can be said that he is moving little by little. But after ten minutes of moving like a snail, he looked down and saw that he was still some distance from the bottom of the cliff, so he quickened his speed impatiently.

Finally, after wearing some of the skins of his hands, his feet finally touched the ground.

"Whew, I'm tired, why are you so tall?" Xu Shuo muttered and glanced up, the protruding rock looked so small at the moment, and it was already so tiring to slide down, he couldn't help but start to worry about how to climb up when he turned around.

Suddenly, something slipped down from above with a "bang", and suddenly arrived in front of Xu Shuo.

It's Lilian.

"Ah, my hand slipped and scared me to death!" Liliam said, patting her chest in shock.

"Slide down at such a high speed, are your hands okay?" Xu Shuo asked worriedly.

Lilian spread out her hands, which were covered with a layer of silver scales, and the moment she saw the scales, she quickly hid her hands behind her back with an "ah".

Lilien lowered her head and whispered, "I'm sorry......"

"Why apologize? Isn't it good, it's dragon scales, right? Xu Shuo said.

"Mr. Xu Shuo, don't you feel disgusting?" Lilian was a little surprised.

"Why do you feel disgusting?" Xu Shuo asked incomprehensibly.

Lilian looked at Xu Shuo in disbelief, since she was a child, people around her often told her that subhumans were low-level creatures, similar to wild beasts. Although she herself does not agree with this point of view, she can't help but be shocked when she realizes that she is also a subhuman. But Xu Shuo didn't seem to have similar thoughts at all.

"Can you show me? Hand. Xu Shuo said.

Lilion hesitated, then slowly reached out, the silver scales still attached to it, which seemed to Lilion to be creepy and disgusting.

"Well, it's dragon scales." Xu Shuo tapped his fingers lightly on Lilian's palm a few times, and then there was a metallic touch on his fingertips, "It's so good, it's so hard, the wolf can't bite it, and it won't wear out your hand if you slide down from a high place, ...... it's "

Xu Shuo suddenly remembered something.

"At that time, you were stabbed in the stone forest, but you didn't suffer any injuries, and it was this scale that protected you, right?"

Liliam was in a trance, thinking about it, it is true that she has rarely been injured since she was a child, and sometimes she sees accidents, but in the end she can always get through it unscathed, perhaps thanks to this scale.

She tried to clench her fist, but she didn't feel any difference from her usual scales, the hard scales bent easily under her control.

"Oh, it's nice to be able to move flexibly." Xu Shuo held Lilian's hand and stroked it gently, "No wonder you are a teacher tomorrow, but you have so much strength, not bad speed, and you are cold and heat resistant." It's really enviable, if only I could be like you, with this scale armor, it's not an exaggeration to say that it's invulnerable, right? ”

"That, that, Mr. Xu Shuo......"

"What's wrong?"

"Well, hand ......," Lilian said with a blushing face.

"Huh?" Xu Shuo was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly noticed that he was rubbing the girl's hands mercilessly, like a hand-loving idiot, he hurriedly raised his hands and said, "I'm sorry!" Accidentally ......"

Lilion smiled and shook her head, looking down at her palm, realizing for the first time that being a subhuman also has the benefits of being a subhuman.
