Chapter 367 - 367: 2733, “The tall and thin and small, at first glance I don’t have any strength ”
Ji Ruo turned around in confusion and looked at Lauren, who was still pale. He asked in surprise,”Why are you up?” Lie down, you’re poisoned and can’t move yet…Emily, cast a healing spell on him.”
“I don’t have enough spiritual energy. I need to rest for a while.”
Hearing this, Ji Ruo stood up helplessly and pressed Lao Lun to the ground.””Then there’s nothing we can do. Brother, hold on a little longer. Our Priest is temporarily useless, and I, a Pugilist who is already useless, can’t do anything.
You’re the pillar of our team. Nothing can happen to you.
After all, I’m thin and small, and I don’t seem to have much strength. I can’t even penetrate the shell of a demon, and I’m not as good as your greatsword…When Emily recovers, she will definitely be the first to heal you.”
The veins on Lauren’s forehead throbbed, and she tried to break free from Ji Ruo’s grip and sat up forcefully. She struggled for a while, but she didn’t budge…
“Get away!” he said angrily.”
What’s the matter? Ji Ruo looked confused.” I didn’t use any strength, Brother Lauren. I’m thin and small, like a monkey. I don’t have the strength to even tie a chicken. You don’t think I can hold you down, do you?”
“You!”
Lao Lun glared at Ji Ruo.
He looked at the ‘sincere’ Ji Ruo, then at Emily and the black-robed mage who were already having fun. He could not help but roar, “Have you guys ever entered the Buried City before?!!”
The three of them looked at each other.
Emily replied,” Although it’s my first time, I’ve read many stories about
Dungeons in books. I have a lot of experience.”
The black-robed mage replied, ” I was here to buy something. Emily asked me if I wanted to form a team, so I came.’
Lauren felt numb, not just physically, but mentally as well.
So he was the only one who had experience in clearing dungeons!
Besides, these people had never been here before, yet they pretended to be familiar with the Buried City!
He turned his eyes and stared at the black-robed mage.”ls this your first time here? Then why did you pretend to be a big wolf before?!”
He was referring to how he had targeted Ji Ruo earlier, and how the black-robed mage had asked him to shut up.
“When teammates quarrel, you have to persuade them. What’s so strange about that?”
Lauren was speechless.
At this point, the black-robed Wizard’s unusually hoarse voice no longer sounded mysterious.
These guys were just a bunch of newbies. Only that Pugilist named Ji Ruo might have some strength, and he was quite strong. Lao Lun admitted that he had misjudged them.
But even so, he did not think that Ji Ruo was that strong. After all, he was a Pugilist and not some special profession. The upper limit was there. No matter how strong he was, how strong could he be?
He began to regret agreeing to form a party.
It was mainly because when Emily tried to recruit him, she had used all kinds of high-end adventure vocabulary. Even Lauren didn’t understand some of the words, but he felt that they were very powerful.
So Lauren mistook Emily for an experienced adventurer.
As for the black-robed Wizard…To be honest, a mage was a high-end profession. Coupled with his black robe and his hoarse and cold voice, one could tell that he was an expert at a glance.
Archers ‘words… Forget it.
All in all, Emily, the black-robed mage, and Lauren were already three experts in the five-man team. The team was considered healthy, and the mission was only to go to the third floor. It was not difficult for the three of them to work together.
In addition, Emily said that if he joined, he could take 60% of the spoils of war.
Lauren was tempted.
However, what he did not expect was…
The ‘high-level adventure vocabulary’ that Emily had mentioned was actually something she had learned from books…He also asked him to take 60% of the spoils of war. He probably didn’t want to take any spoils of war at all and just came in to ‘sightsee’!
Lauren felt both glad and scared at the thought of this.
Fortunately, the problem was discovered early. They had just entered and encountered a problem.
If they had been a little later, they would have died without even knowing how they had died when they reached the second or even the third level!
As a ‘senior’ adventurer, Lauren knew that individual strength couldn’t play a decisive role in the Buried City.
They were humans, and their own race meant that they could not defeat powerful demons alone. They had to cooperate.
After all, even a high-level mage needed enough time to chant a spell before they could unleash their full power.
Lauren, who was lying on the ground, suddenly calmed down.
Fortunately, it was not too late to discover the problem.
Emily looked at the two of them in surprise and said, “Is this your first time in the Buried City? What a coincidence. He didn’t expect it to be everyone’s first time.”
Lauren listened to Emily’s wise voice and finally calmed down. He lay on the ground and said calmly, quit.”
“What? You want to quit?”
Emily was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked,’”‘Why? Aren’t we cooperating well?”
Lauren was furious at the mention of this. She could not control her anger anymore. “Cooperate? If it wasn’t for the fact that those poisonous needles weren’t strong enough, I would’ve been killed by the coordination between you and the Flying Needle Hornets just now!”
Emily looked guilty.
“Anyway, I want to quit.”
Lauren took a deep breath.”
“Brother, you’ve been poisoned. You really can’t move around…” Ji Ruo advised earnestly.
Lao Lun stared at Ji Ruo.
“Alright, alright, I’ll let go.”
Lauren stood up and slowly walked towards the exit with stiff steps.
“Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it”
The archer raised his trembling arms.
He also felt that following these guys wasn’t very reliable. In terms of psychological activity, he was the same as Lauren.
Lauren turned around and said,” I’m leaving now, but before that, we’re still a team, so I’m taking a part of the Flying Needle Hornets with me.””
He stared at Emily.”
There were soldiers guarding the entrance of the Buried City. To enter, one had to form a team. To exit, one had to hand over a portion of the spoils of war. It was equivalent to the entrance fee collected by the dynasty. If one did not hand it over, the soldiers would not let them out.
It was already very uncomfortable for him to accidentally enter the newbie team. If he had to pay the entrance fee, wouldn’t it be even more uncomfortable?
Almost all of the Flying Needle Hornets had been shot down anyway. Those that were not shot down had escaped because the ammunition depot was emptied. With so many of them, the poisonous needles and the Hornets themselves were enough to pay for the entrance fee.
Emily subconsciously looked at Ji Ruo.
After all, if it wasn’t for Ji Ruo, they wouldn’t have been able to defeat so many Flying Needle Hornets.
Emily was innocent, but she was not stupid.
She turned her head sideways, her golden hair flowing, revealing a corner of her cute ears. Lauren caught a glimpse of her, and her pupils constricted slightly.
Ji Ruo waved his hand indifferently and said,”Alright, alright, take it…That archer brother, are you leaving too? Then you can pick one and take it with you.”
“I have a name,” the archer said in a trembling voice.”My name is…”
“I know, archer.”
A moment later, the two of them left after recovering.
Emily looked around and asked carefully, ‘”‘Then what should we do? Should he go back and regroup? It’s just the three of us. It should be very dangerous to go to the third level, right?”
‘ It’s rare for me to come here,” the black-robed Wizard said.” I want to go take a look. What about you guys?””
Jiruo looked at the black-robed Wizard and suddenly smiled.””Yeah, we’re already here.”
Emily saw that everyone was going, so she went too.
“You can go, but we only have three people left, so you must be careful. I’ve seen similar situations in books. You must not act alone later… Goddess, bless us. If we’re lucky, we should be able to gain something..
