In the middle of the 17th floor, many three-way intersections began to appear.
While walking in the cave-like passage, the passage under my feet suddenly merged with another passage, and the length and width of the passage also increased significantly.
However, the openness of the terrain did not reduce the difficulty of the battle, but instead increased it significantly.
Because the closer you get to the depths of the 17th floor, the more powerful and numerous the monsters born are. The Minotaurs born here are much stronger than those encountered on the 15th floor, and they often appear.
Just a few.
With continued deepening, the passages gradually merged into one, and the width of the grotto also increased significantly.
In the wide cave, a goosebump-like sense of oppression surged from the front of the road, as if something terrible was waiting at the end of the passage.
"Ahead is the stone chamber where the floor lord was born."
Line's expression gradually became serious, and she was obviously a little afraid of the place at the end of the passage ahead.
"I don't know if there are any new floor lords born in the stone chamber now. If there are, with the strength of our team, it will be impossible to pass..."
Jiang Li picked up the map in his pocket and found that in the last section of the cave on the 17th floor, extremely dangerous words were indeed marked.
Floor lord.
The official name is "The Lone King of the Labyrinth". It is a special and powerful monster that is only born in certain floors of the dungeon. It can be simply understood as a boss-type character that appears on certain floors.
And on the 17th floor, there happens to be the first floor lord since entering the dungeon.
The strength of a floor lord is generally estimated to be the level of the monster on that floor plus two levels. For example, most of the monsters on the 17th floor are lv.2, so the strength of the floor lord on the 17th floor is lv.4.
There is no way that the lv.4 floor lord can be defeated by their team.
"You can't win with Lefiya's magic?"
Jiang Li looked at the elf girl next to him who also had a troubled expression.
"Well, let me sing quietly for five minutes, no, three minutes..."
Lefiya whimpered and didn't look confident.
five minutes.
How could you be given such a long time to chant during the battle with the floor master?
As the only vanguard in the team who could fight the monster up close, Jiang Li could definitely say that if the floor master wanted to kill Lefiya, he would never be able to stop it.
"However, the floor master on the 17th floor should only appear every half a month, right?"
"That's true, but there's no guarantee that there won't be a living floor owner inside now."
After the floor master is knocked down once, the next one will be born after a fixed period. To put it simply, there is a refresh time for the monster.
As for the Floor Master on the 17th floor, its refresh time is half a month. After being killed, the next one will not appear until half a month later.
After all, there are so many adventurers entering the dungeon, and some people will definitely find it an obstacle and defeat it. Generally speaking, the floor leader spends very little time alive and spends most of the time gestating.
"Okay, let's go back today."
Jiang Li was a little reluctant. This was almost reaching the end. He didn't expect to get out here, but even if he wasn't willing, he couldn't risk his life.
Once together with Line and Lefiya, they prepared to return.
They had been working on the 17th floor for a day, and it was almost evening before they could turn back.
"Are the number of adventurers a little small?"
On the way back, Lefiya looked around with some confusion.
Returning from the 17th floor to the 16th floor, apart from them, there was no group of adventurers at all. It was as if they were the only ones left in the entire dungeon, and it was so quiet that it was unnerving.
"After all, it's getting late, and there are usually few adventurers coming and going around the 17th floor."
Low-level adventurers will not come to the middle level, while high-level adventurers will sleep in the deep layers. Only adventurers around level 2 will wander around on more than a dozen floors. There are still very few adventurers in this group.
Moreover, it takes more than an hour to return to the ground from the 17th floor. The adventurers who want to go back have already set off.
"What's wrong with you, Jiang Li?"
Line was answering Lefiya's question, but at a certain moment, she suddenly noticed that Jiang Li at the front had stopped. She thought a monster was coming, and she couldn't help but become nervous.
"I have a bad feeling."
Jiang Li rubbed his chin and focused on the stairs to the 15th floor not far away.
"Premonition?"
"Are you hungry?"
"I'm not kidding."
After casually replying to Lefiya, Jiang Li thought for a moment and turned to look at the two of them.
"You guys wait for me here, I'll go to the front to check on the situation and I'll be back soon."
After saying this, before the two of them could respond, he had already wrapped himself in a dark cloak and quickly stepped into the dark passage.
"what to do?"
"Since he said so, let's wait for a while. With his strength, there shouldn't be any danger."
…………
Level 15.
The terrain here is still like a grotto, and monsters such as minotaurs are born from time to time in the narrow passages.
His strong intuition made him vaguely aware of the malicious intent, and Jiang Li hurried towards the passage to the 14th floor.
A few minutes later.
As the passage to the upper level appeared, figures began to appear in front of Jiang Li's eyes.
He stopped and did not walk up immediately. Instead, he hid at the corner of the passage. In the dim underground city space, he looked very inconspicuous in a dark cloak.
"...Damn fat lady, it's so late and you still don't let us go back to rest!"
"Please keep your voice down, it will be terrible if she hears you."
"But how can a new adventurer go deep into a place like this? Level 2 people like us who have been adventurers for several years have to form a team to get down!"
"I heard that there are thousands of goblins and clown waiters around him. Maybe they form a team to gain experience."
There are only a few lv.2.
They all had hoods on their bodies, so their faces couldn't be seen clearly, and they could only be identified as women from the outline of their bodies and their voices.
At this scale, it should be able to be solved with a little effort.
Jiang Li weighed it silently in his heart.
"bump!"
"bump!"
Just as Jiang Li was about to summon the inherent spiritual equipment, suddenly, the rocky ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled, as if some kind of huge monster was gradually approaching.
"Hey, what are you yelling about? Please take it seriously!"
A monster over two meters tall emerged from another passage, came to several Amazons, and shouted at them with a loud, rough voice.
"It's human...how can someone be so ugly?"
Jiang Li was greatly surprised.
She was a huge woman with a very broad and strong figure, enough to remind people of a toad. Compared with Jiang Li's facial features, it can only be said that the only thing they have in common is that she is impartial. She happens to have two eyes, one nose, and one nose.
Open your mouth and wait.
Ah, my eyes.jpg
"However, the feeling of oppression is so strong, just like Tiona..."
Jiang Li hid in a corner, not daring to move.
But in this way, their purpose was confirmed.
There is no doubt that they are here to find him.
The reason is still unknown, but Jiang Li has reason to suspect that these Amazons are coveting his beauty. After all, no one can match him in terms of beauty, and it is common for him to attract low-quality bees and butterflies.
The expired loli clicked and disliked.
"Click!"
Suddenly, the crisp sound of the rock wall cracking reached Jiang Li's ears.
A huge crack opened in the wall beside him, and the figure of the minotaur Minotaur appeared from it, about to wake up.
"who!"
A pitch-black short ax spun towards this side under the powerful sound of wind.
Jiang Li:???
If you have bad luck, you really can't blame others.
