Chapter Seventy-Three: The Fifth Floor

Finally, the fifth layer.

After the Slime, the Unicorn, the Thorny Wolf, and the Earthmen, the fifth layer they have to face is the Minotaur.

If you find it hard to remember, they have another nickname - the Minotaur.

Compared to the other magical beasts that Xu Shuo has encountered so far, the Minotaur can be regarded as his "acquaintance".

The Minotaur is the most common in the game and one of the most frequently seen Warcraft in Otherworldly comics, and its popularity is comparable to that of slimes and goblins, but the strength of the Minotaur is incomparable to the other two, just like the "Russians" in Warcraft.

If you are not careful, it can lead to serious consequences.

"Are you really okay?" Xu Shuo looked at Lilian beside him, and said with some worry: "Otherwise, I'll send you outside first, right?" ”

Lilion shook her head, her loose blonde hair swaying slightly.

Three thousand troubles - Xu Shuo's mind suddenly popped up with such a sentence.

Five minutes ago, Lilian finally calmed down the emotions in her heart and followed Xu Shuo down the stairs to the fifth floor of the labyrinth, but she still looked like she was lost and depressed, which made Xu Shuo a little unable to let go.

"You, you still have the heart to worry about others, it's the Minotaur who will be killed in a while, these guys look naïve, and the earth and stone people who really start to do it are not opponents, with your current strength, it's very dangerous not to be cautious." Angela said.

(Got it.) )

"By the way, when you go out, don't go the same way, just use the teleportation crystal card."

(Why?) That card is expensive. )

"Now there is a bunch of masked guys outside the labyrinth, I looked at their stats, and it seems to be the same group of people as the guys who chased you last time, but there are more of them."

Xu Shuo paused and looked at Lilian beside him, who continued to walk forward absentmindedly, not noticing that Xu Shuo had fallen behind.

(…… Is it really for Lilian? So, is the inner ghost in Wink Manor? Is it Herschel? )

Herschel Wink - As Lilian's uncle and Adam Wink's younger brother, Xu Shuo was the first person who came to mind, he was one of the most motivated and suspicious people in the manor, and when he met Xu Shuo, the blood-red number above his head happened to be right.

The reason why Herschel has so much resentment towards Xu Shuo is probably because Xu Shuo ruined his "good deeds".

If you say this, then it's not just an internal ghost, it's completely behind the scenes.

But if that's the case, then what's going on with Captain Alamo? The Alamo was also very hostile to him, so did this mean that Herschel was an accomplice to the Kingdom Guard?

But when they returned to the city that day, the guards did not take the opportunity to do anything, but looked very happy to find Liliane.

What about the Black Turban Thief? That day, the president insisted that it was the hand of the black scarf thief, and he looked very sure.

Could it be that Herschel, the captain of the guard, and the black turban thieves all have a share? With the black and white lines and her own backyard, it's a miracle that Lilian has survived until now.

"Don't make up your mind so early, Lilien, as the first heir, if she dies, shouldn't the property fall into the hands of her husband?" Angela said.

(You mean Lilian's fiancé?) But aren't they still married? )

"It's hard to say, but occasionally there are people in this country who marry dead singles for political or other reasons, and although it is only in the name of it, it is semi-legal in this country. Liliam and his fiancé are already engaged, and his fiancé can use this as an excuse to request the completion of his marriage to Liliam and then inherit the estate. ”

(That is, is that fiancé also suspicious...... )

Xu Shuo fell into chaos for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more complicated things became.

But he figured out one thing, the most critical thing in the whole incident was the captain of the guard. Whoever is the real mastermind behind the scenes, as long as this whole incident is related to the captain of the guard, it will be difficult for him to go through formal channels to solve the problem.

In other words, it is useless to report to the officer.

"By the way, this is the end of the matter, I'd better warn you." Angela said: "This eldest lady is a good boy and has helped you a lot, I can understand your desire to help her, but you have to do everything you can, don't put yourself in it." ”

(I know...... )

Xu Shuo touched the short sword that Lilian lent him after his body, took it in his hand and looked at it, the short sword inlaid with sapphires was still sharp after several battles, which showed that the quality of this short sword was very good.

With a flick of his wrist, he stabbed his short sword towards the rock wall beside him, only to hear a "click", and the blade of the sword went deep into the rock wall to the root.

(Do what you can, I'll do what I can.) )

"There's a nasty feeling...... Don't mess around. Angela instructed again.

Lilian, who was walking in front, heard the voice, and only then turned back consciously, "Mr. Xu Shuo?" ”

"Ah, nothing." Xu Shuo pulled the short sword out of the wall, shook off the dust on it, and then retracted his waist, "Let's go." ”

Walking down, the temperature in the air gradually became hot, at first Xu Shuo thought it was caused by his walking exercise, but the further down, the higher the temperature became, and slowly there was a feeling of sauna.

"It's hot, Mr. Xu Shuo." Liliam noticed too.

"yes, how can it be so hot...... Is it close to the center of the earth? ”

After a while, the stairs came to an end, and after entering the fifth floor, the sound of "ping-pong" metal colliding came from nowhere.

The scene of the fifth floor is different from the previous four floors, it looks a bit like a mining cave, and from time to time you can see the tunnels with torches on both sides and have been reclaimed into a boxy area, but compared to the tunnels in ordinary mines, the tunnels here are obviously wider, and walking in them, there is an inexplicable feeling of becoming small.

The two of them wandered around the fifth layer for a while, but they didn't manage to run into the Minotaur.

"Strange, where have all the people gone?"

Xu Shuo muttered as he walked around a corner.

"Huh? It's ......"

A rough track appeared in front of them, it was very wide, it looked like a train track, and I didn't know where it led, and as far as I looked, one end of the track disappeared at a corner.

"How can there be railroad tracks here?" Liliam asked.

"I don't know, but I guess I can get some out of following the rails." Xu Shuo said.

The two of them followed the railroad tracks. Gradually, the sound of "ping pong" from nowhere became louder and louder, the temperature became hotter, and the foreheads of both began to seep sweat.

"Mr. Xu Shuo, it's so hot here, my clothes are sticky." Liliam tugged at her collar and stirred it up a few times.

Xu Shuo smelled the faint scent of milk, and he inhaled it with his nose for a while.

"I can make three bowls of rice." Xu Shuo said.

"Mr. Xu Shuo, what are you talking about?" Lilian asked.

"Nothing."
