"So, Mane, why are you here?" Sensi asked in a deep voice while Marusil was thinking wildly.
Mane, the burly orc leader, showed extraordinary vigilance: "It has nothing to do with you,"
He asked back: "Senxi, it's you, why do you appear in a place like this?"
Sensi said nothing.
The atmosphere was silent for a moment.
Laos scratched his head, as if he couldn't read the air, "So you two have known each other for a long time."
Sensi sniffed and stretched out his hand to introduce Laos and others: "This is Zong. He is an old acquaintance of mine. We have met a long time ago and have dealt with him several times."
He folded his arms across his chest, with an expression on his face that said he would not let strangers approach him.
Laos said "Oh" and then said nothing.
Chilchak pursed his lips and couldn't help but think to himself: "Although I have long thought that it would be quite strange for an acquaintance to appear in such a place, I thought it was at most a goblin or a kobold, but I didn't expect it to be an orc."
ah."
All I can say is that interpersonal relationships are more complicated than imagined, and the relationship between races is truly wonderful.
At this moment, Jon said: "Mane."
Mane's attitude immediately changed 180 degrees, and he said respectfully: "I'm here, Lord Jon."
Jon: "Actually, these adventurers and I are going underground. If I remember correctly, your family doesn't live on this level, right?"
"To be honest, Lord Jon, a powerful monster suddenly appeared on the fifth floor where we live." Mane sighed and said truthfully: "That guy is a very small number of red dragons, and it suddenly appeared not long ago.
Near our village. In the village... there were some reasons why we couldn't fight temporarily. In order to take refuge, we all ran to this floor."
"Wait a minute, the red dragon? Is that the dragon you are talking about?" Laos was a little surprised, and then he came to the front of the mane excitedly: "Please, please tell me where that dragon is."
Where did you see it? Please tell me quickly!"
"No!" Zong's attitude towards others became a lot colder. He blew out two streams of white air from his nose and said in a buzzing voice: "The location of the orc village is an important secret, and there is no way I can tell you."
"I won't do anything to your village. I just want to know the location of the red dragon." Leos still insisted.
But the more he acted like this, the more alert he became.
The green-skinned orcs behind them also increased their vigilance and tightened their grip on the weapons in their hands.
Jon looked here and there, knowing that he couldn't continue to watch the fun, so he had to stand up and smooth things over: "I said, there is no conflict of interest, so there is no need to make it so tense."
Turning his head and looking at the burly greenskin: "Mane, others don't believe it. You still don't believe me? You should know that I will not take action against your village. Likewise, neither will my friends."
.”
"Lord Jon..." A hesitant look flashed in Zhuo's eyes.
After thinking for a moment, he had no choice but to compromise: "Since you said so. Hey, you bastard with droopy eyes over there."
Leos:???
The so-called droopy-eyed bastard is not talking about me, right?
Zhuo said with a serious expression: "Although I don't know what you want to do after asking about the red dragon, that guy is not a small character who can be defeated easily."
"My sister was eaten by the red dragon. I must save her." Meeting the orc's eyes, Laos spoke solemnly.
"Sister..."
I don't know what he thought of, and Ming's expression softened slightly.
"In that case, listen carefully. Our village is near XXX. It can be easily found by going down the stairs on the fifth floor and heading west."
The burly greenskin told the location of the village and took away everything looted from the tavern.
Survive and live.
Eat and be eaten.
This is the law of the maze.
It’s not easy for anyone…
Looking at the backs of the orcs, Leos couldn't help clenching his fists: "There is no time to waste, let's set off now!"
"Wait a minute." Chilchak said, "Is it really okay to just leave these people's bodies here and leave them alone?"
"But, they are going to attack us before that." Laos scratched his head.
Although he is relatively dull, he still has a clear stance. He will not attack other adventurers unless there are special circumstances, but he will not hold back if he is attacked by others.
An accident like this happened, resulting in all the unruly people in the tavern being killed by the orcs. Not only did Laos not feel unbearable, but he actually felt that he had really helped a lot.
Chirchak: "No, no, no, you must have misunderstood something. What I mean is, although the orcs stole the food here, they didn't touch the money or anything like that."
Please be considerate, this is an occupational disease.
There is no treasure chest to open, but you can touch the corpse.
Laos blinked and suddenly realized: "Oh, so this is what you are talking about."
He spread his hands: "I don't think it matters, but it's too troublesome to collect them bit by bit. We have limited time..."
"Indeed, we must rescue Faline quickly. I just think the opportunity is rare." Chirchak sighed.
Having said that, he still got a big windfall from the tavern owner.
Now, the halfling locksmith finally felt a little more balanced.
Continue down——
Walking to the stairs leading to the fourth floor of the maze, the group unexpectedly encountered a team that had been wiped out.
"What happened? We seem to have a special affinity with corpses today." Chilchak raised an eyebrow.
Then he discovered that there were many gold coins scattered around this group of adventurers, and they looked like they were "unevenly divided, fighting, and then perishing together".
"It seems that the group was destroyed on the way back. How pitiful." A trace of pity flashed in Malusil's eyes.
Laos looked around and said, "There are no traces of monster activity, and judging from their bodies, there are no obvious injuries. Were they attacked by ghosts or something like that?"
Senxi said blankly: "It's also possible that I didn't eat well and starved to death."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "How can there be such a weird reason for death?" Chirchak slapped his forehead: "If it doesn't work, can't we still eat monsters?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone had different expressions.
Malusil's eyes were full of confusion, while Laos, Sensi and Jon had happy expressions on their faces.
"Very good, Qilchuk, your thoughts have been sublimated at this moment." Jon gave a thumbs up to Qilchuk, "That's it, you have embarked on the path of eating demons."
What the hell is the ‘Way of the Eater Demon’?
Chirchak's head was covered with black lines.
Malusiel pinched her eyebrows and said: "Okay, okay, let's get back to the topic - although the corpse collection team will come soon, the situation on the third underground floor is special after all. If we leave it alone, they will soon turn into corpses.
Become the undead we saw before."
"Then there's no other way, Malusiel, do you know how to pray?" Laos asked.
"If you chant slowly, it should be fine..." Malusiel was a little unsure.
But for the sake of face, she decided to try her best.
In full view of everyone, Malusiel took out a book from her luggage and said, "Wait for me, don't be in a hurry."
While Malusil was casting her prayer spell, Chirchak squatted down curiously and carefully observed the gold coins scattered around.
Suddenly, Laos's scabbard moved.
The slight sound did not escape Chilchak's ears. The halfling locksmith turned his head sharply, "Leos, what was that noise just now?"
"Nothing, nothing, I accidentally touched the decoration on the scabbard." Laos deliberately pretended to be stupid.
However, because he is usually a bit out of line, now that he is acting like this, he appears to be acting like his true self.
Chirchak looked suspiciously.
After such an interruption, he actually discovered some strange things, such as the patterns of these gold coins being completely inconsistent.
"You can't go wrong, this is a treasure bug." Chirchak took a few steps back calmly.
Then he suddenly remembered something and quickly shouted to Malusil: "Hey, get away from those corpses!"
Malusiel couldn't react at the moment.
At this time, the pearl necklace wrapped around a certain corpse suddenly cracked, and thin legs grew out of the gaps between the pearls. The first pearl revealed its sharp mouthparts.
Maluciel:!!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ
In an instant, a strong light illuminated the entire corridor.
I don't know how long it took.
The light finally disappeared.
Senxi and others were so shaken that they couldn't open their eyes.
Only Jon was prepared in advance. At some point, he secretly took out a pair of sunglasses and put them on: "Tianjin Fan, it's a hundred years too early for you to sneak attack me with the Sun Fist."
Maluciel:???
What kind of dish is that? It sounds so strange.
"What a terrifying magic rampage..."
"She is indeed a talented girl from the magic school."
Leos and Chirchak gradually recovered and rubbed their eyes.
Malusil was covered in cold sweat, holding the staff and breathing heavily.
"Now is not the time to talk about this." She said with a pale face, as if a drowning person had regained the right to breathe.
"Review based on the situation at the scene." Leos, who had regained his sight, picked up the treasure bug that was stunned by the strong light, and murmured to himself: "So it turns out that the true identity of these monsters was not discovered, so...
Speaking of which, we rarely see treasure bugs recently."
At the same time, he secretly thought in his mind: "Did that mollusk react to the treasure bug? They are both mimicking monsters, so there seems to be some competition."
While thinking wildly, Sensi, who would never miss any ingredient, had already begun to pick and choose.
He moved skillfully, placing the treasure bugs and ordinary treasures on the left and right sides respectively, like a silent and efficient machine.
Malusil's face was still pale, "No way, Sensi, you don't want to..."
"You can eat the one on the left, but you can't eat the one on the right." Senxi said with a normal expression.
Duck!
Duck!
Duck!
Eat insects or something, duck!
"Ah, Malusiel is having trouble again."
"Things of the level of treasure bugs should be easy to accept after experiencing the iron-clad rat film."
Leos and Chilchak exchanged words with each other, almost breaking Malusiel's defenses.
Malusil, who is naturally afraid of bugs, kept shouting: "Duck!"
Leos looked forward to it: "Treasure bugs can also be eaten. By the way, is this delicious?"
"Of course it's delicious." Sensi nodded affirmatively, "Treasure bugs are a rare and precious ingredient in the maze."
Then he looked at Jon, "Am I right?"
Before Jon could answer, Malusiel showed an incredulous look: "Isn't that right? You even eat bugs? Hey, Qiao Qiao, answer me."
"The treasure worm is a monster. Its protein content is even 6 times that of ordinary beef." Bell Jogris said calmly.
Senxi echoed: "Yes, yes, bugs are rich in nutrients and are excellent food ingredients. They have great taste and aroma! And their appearance is also pleasing to the eye."
"You're just talking about the front of the treasure bug, right? Have you ever seen the back? I can see it clearly now." Chirchak twitched the corner of his mouth.
"That's not important!" Senxi stared with round eyes: "It's not important at all! As long as it's delicious!"
Laos rubbed his hands: "So Sensi, where are the treasure bugs edible and where are they not? How do you judge this?"
Sensi: "Analyzing the specific situation, for example, this necklace insect, the edible and inedible parts are very clear. As for the insects I have that look like brooches or coins, it depends on the position of the head and claws. By the way,
The male and female coin bugs have different patterns, the male has a human head and the female has a flying lion."
"I don't want to know that kind of boring knowledge at all..." Malusiel's head was full of black lines.
Sensi ignored Malusil and continued: "...and like this."
He picked up another ring, "This kind of ringworm has an elastic ring, which is its abdomen, and the jewelry decoration is the head."
Leos looked like he had "really learned something".
Finally, Senxi took out a pot from his luggage. "Let's eat these treasure bugs as soon as possible before they react."
"Duck!" Malusil kept chirping about eating insects.
Unfortunately, no one respects her opinion at all.
This happens not once or twice. The one who opposes the most harsh words will eat more happily than anyone else.
Elf, you are so arrogant and weird.
Senxi took care of himself and started dealing with the treasure bugs.
Remove excess tentacles and claws.
Chirchak and Laos skillfully lit the fire and set up the pot.
Either roasted, oiled, or stir-fried.
"The treasure worm is delicious. Just add a little salt and you can cook it. Of course, in order to make it more beautiful, try to turn the mimic side up." Senxi said while turning the treasure worm over with chopsticks to reveal its golden shell.
"In such a strange place, he really has a different kind of persistence." Chirchak complained to Leos quietly.
Sensi Quan pretended not to hear it and started to deal with the only crown-shaped treasure insect again.
"The crown is the main body, and the jewels inlaid on it are the larvae and insect eggs. Crush these things, then put them in a pot over high heat to collect the juice, and put them into bottles. You will have the rare treasure insect jam!"
"There's no fruit in your jam at all, right!" Malusiel hugged her arms, her brows almost twisted into knots, "It's just insect jam at best!"
