274、The Boss(1/2)

Even though the black-robed mage seemed to be out of character, Ji Ruo knew that this guy was not simple at all.

Not to mention that he could sense the arrival of the Flying Needle Demon Bee Swarm in advance. If this guy hadn't reminded him, even Ji Ruo wouldn't have noticed it.

Although Ji Ruo possesses spiritual consciousness, he is not very used to using it to detect surroundings and does not use this method very much. This black-robed mage was not seen chanting any spells along the way, yet he has such a large range of perception.

This alone is enough to prove that it is not simple.

Not only that, when the Flying Needle Demon Bee arrived earlier, Ji Ruo didn't hear anything this guy chanted, but he was able to directly open the elemental shield...

There are various signs that this guy is definitely no ordinary magician.

The previous threats to Lauren were most likely not just words.

This guy was really murderous at that time!

As for what the other party said, "I just planned to come here to buy something, and happened to be invited by Emily, I came here," Ji Ruo didn't quite believe it.

But for the time being, it seems that this guy doesn't have any ill intentions towards him, so Ji Ruo plans to see what the other person wants to do first, and it's better if he doesn't threaten himself. If he threatens himself...

Ji Ruo narrowed his eyes slightly. At that time, he would not be able to show off his power as a star-level warrior.

His consciousness scanned again, and the place where the black-robed mage was was still blank, as if there was nothing.

Other than that, Ji Ruo can't sense anything.

The young man had a smile on his face, but he was already wary of the black-robed mage.

As for Emily?

This guy is purely a rich girl who has seen too many adventurers. To put it nicely, she is innocent, but to put it worse - she is just a fool and is nothing to worry about.

...

"By the way, Xiaoli, what kind of god do you believe in?"

In the deep underground passage, Ji Ruo asked curiously.

Don't blame him for being curious, it's really that the faith shown by Emily is a bit strange.

Logically speaking, as a professional, you should only have the main belief in one god.

But on Emily's side...Ji Ruo listened to Emily's singing with a learning attitude.

And Emily didn't avoid anything, Ji Ruo couldn't be considered eavesdropping.

That's it... Emily successfully released the healing spell several times, and the names of the gods she chanted were always different.

Ji Ruo knows that those informal professional inheritances are not particularly standardized, but this is too...

Moreover, being a pastor is a serious profession.

"Xiao Li..."

Emily's mouth twitched. Although she didn't quite understand the meaning of this title, a simple picture appeared in her mind.

"I believe in the goddess of nature and life, who..."

Ji Ruo suddenly realized that he was such a god.

But, goddess?

Isn’t it a beautiful one?

After thinking about it, Ji Ruo felt that it had nothing to do with him, so he lowered his head and started tinkering with the magic bee he had just caught.

He kept three magic bees, one was tied with a rope and straddled diagonally on his back, and the other two were trying to tie them to both sides of his waist.

The main reason is that the demon bees are still alive and can struggle.

"Don't move around." Ji Ruo whispered, lowered his head and looked around, picked up a few small stones and blocked the muzzle of the gun, muttering: "How can a gun leak bullets on its own? When you are in danger,

What should I do if I have no bullets?”

Demon Bee: "Buzz~ (Devil! Devil!)"

When it came to the gods she believed in, Emily didn't care that Ji Ruo called her "Xiao Li" and introduced her to Ji Ruo with excitement.

It looked like he was preaching.

The black-robed mage asked curiously: "I remember, isn't the priest's belief in the God of Light? Light has the power of purification, and evil injuries are eliminated under the light..."

The hoarse voice was the same as before.

Emily didn't wait for the black-robed mage to finish, then waved her hands and said, "I'm not that kind of priest. My healing skills mainly rely on vitality."

"I can tell."

The black-robed mage tightened the Flying Needle Demon Bee tied behind his back with a rope, and said: "This is the first time I have seen a healing technique that can even cure monsters... For a normal priest, any skill will cause damage to monsters.

harm."

Emily chuckled: "This means that my faith is stronger...Ji Ruo, do you want to believe it too?"

"ah?"

Ji Ruo was studying how to tie two fully equipped Flying Needle Demon Bees to his waist, thinking about performing a 'double gun' style when he encountered monsters again, when he suddenly heard Emily ask him,

Subconsciously he asked: "What are the benefits of believing in it?"

"benefit?"

Emily scratched her head, obviously not expecting Ji Ruo to ask such a question.

If you believe in gods, how can you ask for benefits?

wack.

The black-robed mage asked with interest: "Then what benefits do you want?"

"You ask me?" Ji Ruo didn't even raise his head. After trying for a long time, he decided to put the magic bee directly into his trouser pocket. It was convenient to take it out, but it didn't look very nice.

"Then I definitely want all the benefits."

"for example?"

"Like... yo, slime!"

While Ji Ruo was talking, he suddenly saw several translucent gelatinous monsters wriggling by the wall. His eyes lit up and he quickly rushed over and grabbed two fist-sized slimes.

When Emily saw this, she said with a look of disgust: "What are you doing catching this? It's so disgusting."

Ji Ruo said casually: "I thought of a fun idea, let's try it later and see if it works."

The three of them walked towards the second floor while chatting.

The overall structure of this dungeon is spiral downward, and there are many monsters along the way. Fortunately, the black-robed mage has good perception, and except for the demon bee swarm, the three of them did not encounter any danger.

You will even occasionally encounter "gifts from nature", such as wooden treasure chests placed in a corner waiting to be opened. When you open them, you can get various bottled potions and so on.

However, since it is only the first level, the quality of the medicine is not much better.

Ji Ruo looked at the turbid potion in the glass bottle with a look of disgust.

"How long has this been stored? There is no production date or shelf life. I don't know if it has spoiled. Is this a dungeon?"

There is also fruit residue visible to the naked eye in the potion, which shows that it has not been carefully handled.

Emily nodded and said, "Although I don't quite understand what the production date and shelf life are, this is how the dungeon looks, just like what's written in the book."

"Fine."

...

Outside the underground city, market town.

Lauren was carrying a big sword on her back, with bruises on her face. She endured her heartache and spent money to buy a bottle of antidote. After drinking it, her swollen body returned to normal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If Ji Ruo were here, he would definitely be able to recognize at a glance that the antidote that Lauren just drank was really the bottle of turbid potion that Ji Ruo got from opening the treasure box in the dungeon, which made him look disgusted.

As the saying goes: When a poisonous snake appears, there must be an antidote within seven steps.

Although there is no scientific basis for it, this is indeed the case in underground cities.

For ordinary adventurers, it is not easy to fight against monsters, and it is inevitable to be injured. However, even so, adventurers still flock to dungeons.

In addition to the rich materials contained in the dungeon, the most important thing is that the dangers in the dungeon are actually limited.

Otherwise, if Chun Chun died, who would take the risk?

Aren’t you tired of living?

In short, if you encounter a poisonous monster in a dungeon, as long as you don't die on the spot, then after you survive, there will definitely be an antidote in the subsequent 'treasure box reward'.

Lieutenant...Ah, no, that's what it's like to break into a dungeon.

However, Lauren did not trust the strength of Ji Ruo and others, and was not at all sure about following them to find the 'level treasure chest', so she came out early.

Although it feels a bit distressing to spend money to buy antidote, it doesn't matter. This loss can be made up for quickly and you can still make a lot of money.

"That guy named Emily turned out to be..." Lauren narrowed her eyes slightly, hiding the shock and ecstasy in her eyes, and walked away in a certain direction without saying a word.

After a while.

"Are you serious? She is really..." A man holding a cigarette was shocked at first, and then said suspiciously: "If it is true, you should understand her value, and you would be so kind to tell this news
