I, Kevin, joined the chat group

"Thanks, but no thanks."

"Oh~"

A few minutes later, Ling Xuan finished his meal and immediately lay down on the picnic blanket, closed his eyes and dozed off. His appearance made Liu look sideways.

Then, as if recalling something, Ryu hesitated to speak.

But after some hesitation, he made up his mind.

"Speaking of which, Mr. Ling Xuan..."

"uh-huh?"

"After the expedition, could I take up a bit of your time?

"How to say?"

"Regarding the safe area on the eighteenth floor... I finally made it into the dungeon, so I thought I'd go there."

"If it bothers you, then that's fine...?"

The words have not yet completely fallen.

Ling Xuan's voice echoed!

"The 18th floor, right? It's not too far, let's go and take a look on the way."

When he heard that they were going to the 18th floor, Ling Xuan already knew what Liu was going to do.

I won't refuse too much...

And he was quite curious about the 18th floor, the safe floor.

You can also rest and recuperate.

Liu had never expected that Ling Xuan would agree so readily.

"Wouldn't Mr. Ling Xuan be very curious?"

Ling Xuan shook his head.

In fact, he already knew what the other party wanted to do.

It's just a matter like this, there's no need to ask too many questions.

While Ling Xuan was chatting comfortably with Liu, he also opened his own panel.

Obviously, through the monster-killing just now, his attributes have also increased significantly.

Not bad.

On the other side, the Jianyu Lei clan, who were also exploring the dungeon, were not as comfortable as Ling Xuan and his friends.

Like Ling Xuan and the others, they were also attacked by monsters.

However, their strength is not as strong as Ling Xuan and Liu.

When faced with the attack of a group of unicorn rabbits, they were completely unable to fight back.

Soon, one of the girls was hit by the unicorn's axe.

Seeing this scene, the leading male couldn't help but call out the name of his companion.

"——Chigusa!"

As soon as these words fell.

The human girl who was hit by the monster did not make a sound, but just fell to the ground suddenly.

The still warm blood splattered all around!

Seeing this scene, the monsters around also let out extremely sharp roars.

Obviously, this kind of slaughtering prey makes these monsters extremely excited!

Although one member had fallen, the leading man did not lose his composure.

"A center back forward! Fill in Chigusa's gap!"

"Hurry, hurry and treat it! The wound is deep!"

But even so, the members of the Jianyu Lei clan themselves are not very strong.

Even if there were six of them, they might not be able to defeat the monster in front of them.

Not to mention that there is now one member missing, leaving only five people.

The flaw that was revealed in an instant was immediately taken advantage of by the monster.

With the cooperation of this group of monsters, the encirclement surrounding several people was immediately reduced!

Ming also realized that something was not right. If it continued like this, there would probably be casualties here!

Thinking of this, fate also issued its own instructions.

"Sakura, prepare to retreat! I'll cover the rear!"

"Sorry, please!"

Accompanied by these words: Ming also watched his companions evacuate while gripping the big knife in his hand: and began to counterattack the monster in front of him.

“…Drink aa ...

Accompanied by a roar.

She mercilessly killed any unicorn rabbit that came within attack range, and easily saw through and dodged the opponent's attacks.

Under a series of operations such as Ming, the monsters that originally had the advantage in numbers were unable to do anything to Ming for a while!

But this is also normal.

After all, he is also a level 2 adventurer.

Its strength at this 13th level is undoubtedly first-tier.

The unicorn rabbits in front of us, although extremely fast, are actually not very strong. Their terrifying thing is their powerful team combat ability.

However, Ming still has a way to protect himself from these monsters.

however……

Something unexpected happened!

Not only did the number of monsters on the field not decrease, but more monsters appeared.

Armored rats, hellhounds...

One after another, monsters that made adventurers despair appeared in everyone's sight.

Faced with so many monsters, a sense of despair emerged in everyone's hearts.

We can only fight and retreat...

The direction they retreated to was exactly where Ling Xuan and Liu were resting!

They noticed it immediately.

Lingxuan and Liu!

"Is that... the new [Family] that has entered the middle level?"

How could you actually rest here so leisurely?

How careless these two adventurers were!

But that's fine too...

"I'm sorry. I feel a little sorry for those two people, but this is the only way if I want to survive."

Sakura said in a low voice, and the people around her were slightly stunned when they heard such words.

Not yet, waiting for them to react.

“…Let’s rush over there.”

Hearing this, Ming immediately reacted and turned around to look at Sakura in surprise.

This is a dungeon-based combat tactic. It involves forcing any monsters your team encounters onto other teams in a random manner during a retreat—a tough, emergency evasive tactic called a monster giveaway.

One of the unwritten rules in the maze is that you basically should not interfere with the actions of others, but adventurers often encounter some urgent matters and cannot take care of others.

In the dungeon where accidents happen frequently, this is also a common method used by teams to communicate frequently.

"Please wait, Sakura! If you do something like that now, those people will...!"

Offering a monster now would be like asking the team in front of you to be the "sacrifice".

Although I don’t know why the two adventurers dared to enter the dungeon in this manner, if they were attacked by monsters of this scale, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"You are much more important to me than the lives of strangers."

"...!"

"If you're sick of my order, feel free to curse me afterwards."

But before they could take action...

Ling Xuan and Liu, who were still resting not far away, also started their own actions!

Chapter 52: Now is the time of judgment

Liu and Lingxuan also noticed Ming and his group.

"Mr. Ling Xuan..."

Hearing these words, Ling Xuan looked into the distance calmly.

Hey, isn’t this the Jianyu Lei clan from the original novel?

It seems that we encountered quite a few monsters...

Liu looked at Ling Xuan.

"Mr. Ling Xuan...should we take action?"

Adventurers in dungeons generally do not steal other people's prey.

However... the current situation clearly cannot be judged by ordinary circumstances.

When Ling Xuan looked at this monster, a hint of excitement burned in his eyes.

In his eyes, these were all walking experience points...

And you can also do a favor for the Jian Yu Lei clan.

Of course, the most important thing is Wo Ming.

A female adventurer from the Far East.

A Level 2 adventurer formerly of the Takemurai Clan. As their main deity, Takemurai, is a war god, those born into the Takemurai Clan are adept with swords, katanas, spears, axes, bows, and shuriken. While they favor sword combat, they are also proficient in taijutsu. Possessing qualities of both samurai and ninja, they also possess the ability to use gravity magic and detect, making them valuable all-rounders when exploring dungeons.

Such talents...are truly too reliable to be members of the team!
