Chapter 118: Monsters on the 117th-5th floor

By the time Lloyd had combed Everol's hair, she had finally swallowed the little cake, and then hurriedly jumped up and began to change her clothes, despite the fact that her brother was still beside her.

Lloyd hurriedly ran out of the room and packed up his clothes.

Everol quickly changed into a plain light-colored long skirt and a bowler hat embellished with bows, looking intellectual and elegant, like a childish and lovely literary girl.

"Xiao Yi hug~ I'll go first."

Everol hurriedly hugged Lloyd, trotted out the door, and stopped a taxi on the side of the road.

Lloyd also trotted out of the door to catch the 'subway'.

Although his work didn't matter if he was late or left early, he was afraid that Wei Ya would wait for a long time and would not be able to see her.

I'm also afraid that Métis will come and grab the key from him......

Fortunately, none of this happened, Wei Ya was still waiting for him at the entrance of the subway hole, and Metis did not suddenly appear out of breath.

However, on today's notice board, there is a different key, and there are many people chattering around it.

When these people saw Lloyd approaching, they quickly stepped to the side and gave him a fair amount of respect.

"-5 floors? This is already a category of high-risk monsters, right? ”

Lloyd glanced at the different key on the notice board, hanging in the bottom column.

The deepest key that will hang on it is the -5 layer, and there is no more of it below, probably not expecting an executor to deal with the -6 layer, right?

But generally speaking, if it weren't for Lloyd's 'monster grabbing', no one would have taken the key to the -2 floor, let alone the deeper ones.

So Lloyd always felt that this mechanism was quite unreasonable......

Wouldn't it be nice to just send all the keys to my office?

He had asked Wei Ya about this before, and the answer he received was 'respect for tradition', and the traditions that had been passed down from the Eternal City and the City of Order had existed for many, many years, dating back to the time when human civilization was in danger.

"It was the most dangerous period for human beings, monsters were rampant, the transcendent were scarce, and it was everyone's obligation and responsibility to fight against monsters......

That's why this tradition continues to this day, with the aim of awakening responsibility and courage in everyone's hearts. ”

That's how Wei Ya explained it at the time.

Naturally, Lloyd couldn't say anything more, but remembered the previous executioner here, that is, Métis, who had worked hard before Lloyd came......

But now it's easy, even if it's -5 floor, Lloyd didn't hesitate to take off the key.

Then I picked up all the two handfuls of the -3 layer.

Then I heard a shouting behind me.

"Picked! He picked it! I won! Give money for money! ”

"It's really worthy of 'the jealous and hateful Lloyd', willing to gamble and lose, willing to gamble and lose."

"Doesn't he really have bottlenecks and limits? Why is there such a big gap between people? I don't even dare to kill the -2 floor, I feel terrified when I look at it......"

"Haha, it's worthy of being the safest district in the legend, and it's too comfortable to be an executor here, right? It took me a lot of effort to transfer from another district. ”

What are these guys doing every day?

Lloyd couldn't help but sneer, slowed down a little, and stretched his ears to listen to the gossip more.

"Huh? What do you mean by that? Is our 18th district still very popular? ”

"Isn't it always hot? Isn't it more comfortable to be promoted to a priest through the path of an executor than to be a crusader? Do you want to go to those wilderness mountains and see monsters baring their teeth every day? ”

"I understand the reason, but it's not only our eighteenth district that cultivates executors, but also the sixth, ninth, and latest twenty-third districts, aren't they all cultivating newcomers?"

"That's still different, I used to be in the ninth district, and I had to execute monsters every day, and sometimes the -2nd floor had to be the scalp, and then I was dizzy and uncomfortable all day, I couldn't learn knowledge at all, and I felt like a tool man......

Later, my family found a way to transfer me to the 18th district, which is not too nourishing, thanks to this Lloyd senior, I feel like I have returned to university, and I can enjoy a relaxed and happy study life every day, and I am very free. ”

"Freedom is not necessarily good, and if you can't pass the assessment in the end, you can't only be a big soldier?"

"You don't have to worry about that, I have a personal trainer at home...... By the way, you probably don't know, right? In the latest executor assessment, the pass rate of our 18 districts is among the best, beating the old districts of 6 districts and 9 districts. ”

"Alas...... I envy a rich boy like you...... If only Lloyd's predecessors were willing to teach a little skill in eliminating mental pollution, or open an anatomy class. ”

Listening to these people's chat, Lloyd couldn't help but smile.

Earning experience and bounties themselves, these people earning a learning environment, actually achieving a subtle win-win?

It's good, as an advanced young man with higher education, he likes to win the situation the most.

Perhaps the presiding judge also has this reason for the importance he attaches to himself?

……………………

When Lloyd walked into his cell on the 5th floor, he was confronted with his favorite things:

【Ding~Madness +1】

【Ding~Madness +1】

【Ding~Madness +1】

It's been a long time since I've experienced this feeling of getting stronger with my breath! The mood suddenly got better.

It's a pity that it didn't take long, and the madness in the air disappeared after a minute......

With his current 100 points of [rationality], this slight mental pollution can quickly get used to, and basically it will play a role in improving his mood.

Lloyd looked at the 'guest' in the cell again—

A flower with a slight humanoid silhouette but growing on a tree?

The whole is like a slightly human-shaped dead tree, the appearance is old and dry, and there is a flower larger than an adult's face growing on the 'chest', the whole body is purple, and it looks quite delicate and mysterious.

This was the first time Lloyd had encountered a botanical demon.

So instead of doing anything, he picked up a recycling list posted on the wall.

This thing looks like a big lump, nearly two meters tall, but the valuable part is actually only a tongue?

This 'Flower Demon Tongue', after subsequent processing, will become a very valuable transcendent material, the 'chattering tongue', which is said to be the core material for the promotion of the [Law Order] system to the fifth order, and the price on the market starts at seven figures.

It was because the black chariot Gordron could not afford this 'chattering tongue' that he was all kinds of worries.

And Lloyd's bounty for recovering it was only 2,000 universal coins......

But he didn't feel that there was anything unfair, after all, the monster was not caught by himself, he just collected the 'raw materials', and the real value-added range was actually a series of complex processing and processing.

If only I could process these materials......

Another wave of ambition welled up in Lloyd's head.

But immediately returned to reality and shook his head.

Don't even think about that......

According to the knowledge he saw in the book, the processing of extraordinary materials is a complex and sophisticated, high-investment, high-risk process, involving too many aspects, and basically only large official institutions such as the Holy Court can handle it.

The sale and circulation of these materials is also an important source of funding for the Order.

Some qualified non-governmental organizations may be able to undertake the relatively simple part, but those that are too high and difficult will certainly not be able to reach it.

The production capacity is too low, which may be a major reason for the abnormal pricing of high-end materials.

Realizing this, the 'theater of dreams' suddenly became even more mysterious in Lloyd's eyes.

It's likely that they are able to process this type of material and have a stable source of raw materials, otherwise they can be redeemed just by playing games, and the production capacity alone will not make sense.

It's no wonder that so many people rush to this and place high-priced orders......

Lloyd pondered this as he walked over to the tree-shaped flower demon.

I didn't take this dangerous 5 monster seriously at all.

The tree-shaped flower demon noticed that someone was approaching, and immediately struggled, and the texture of the exterior that originally looked like dead wood began to become congested, becoming like human muscles without skin, and some dark red liquid could be faintly seen flowing inside.

The purple flower that grew on the chest of the humanoid trunk shrank back into petals, turning back into a bud.

But it immediately bloomed again, revealing a human face-shaped stamen in the middle, looking like a person with blurred facial features screaming and wailing.

A weak cry for help rang from Lloyd's ears:

"Help...... Please, save me......"

The voice sounded milky, and the timbre was somewhat similar to that of Everol.

Lloyd also received a panel prompt as a matter of course:

【Ding~Madness +5, Skill Fragment +1】

Well?

The dish is a little dish, it is better to take the 'subway', but there are actually skill fragments?

Lloyd was a little surprised, so he didn't rush to make a move, and patiently listened to it shouting for a while.

It's a pity that this guy doesn't have the ability to organize the language on his own, and can only repeat it vigorously:

"Help...... Please, save me......"

"Help...... Please, save me......"

I have learned the essence of human beings......

Lloyd continued to wait patiently until the panel prompted:

【Ding~ Enough skill fragments have been obtained, skill level increase, offensive speech LV2→LV3】

Then he continued to wait for a few seconds, and saw that he could no longer obtain skill fragments, so he scattered his inspiration, turned on his vision, locked on the tongue hidden under the stamen of the human face, and stabbed it out with a sword.

Then neatly cut off the surrounding muscle tissue and fibers, and remove it intact.

The cry for help in my ears disappeared without a trace in an instant.

But the Tree Flower Demon did not die immediately, and Lloyd did not rush to kill it, but used it for other purposes.
