Chapter 311 The Old Priest's Request
Chapter 311 The Old Priest's Request
[PS: The plot of the previous chapter has been slightly changed. Rob learned from Miss that there is a shortcut to the next level in the dungeon. The price is to go one step ahead and prevent Cassius and Marknick from clashing. (Miss forgot to tell Rob her real name. In Rob's mind, Miss has always been a supporter of Blake.) That's all. ]
"Give up, we are no match for it. We still have time to escape now!" The magician completely lost the desire to fight.
The fake Miss did not accept the advice of the magician next to him.
"Rand, don't joke around, we took them into the dungeon right under the noses of so many people.
If he cannot bring them out safely, he will definitely be laughed at by everyone and his reputation as a hero will be affected.
Everyone knows that a true hero will never abandon his companions! "
The magician named Rand looked at the impostor Miss with an incredible expression.
"Fico, we pretend to be heroes to make money, you are getting too deep into the role!"
Fei Ke's original battle-damaged yellow crystal wand had been bitten to pieces by the mountain-devouring crocodile, but the amethyst wand in his hand continued to flicker.
"Rand, don't forget, the reason why I pretended to be the Brave Lord was because I received a commission from that old priest. He is the elder who claims to be the Brave Lord."
"So what?"
"If the old priest knew that we had brought shame upon the hero, would he still pay us the balance?
Rand, think about it, in this situation, if these rich people were rescued by me, what would they think of me?
Even if they knew I was a fake, they would still be grateful to me.
Not only will I get the balance of the mission, but these wealthy people will also help me build my reputation.
In the future, we will be able to make more and more money!"
Through this operation, Fei Ke and Rand earned the same amount of money that they could only earn in the previous two or three years.
The deposit for the mission commission from the old priest alone was enough to make them dizzy.
The final payment promised afterwards was an even more staggering figure.
That's why they are fearless and come to the vicinity of the dungeon, disguised as heroes and making huge fortunes.
Even though most adventurers knew that Fei Ke was a fake, the two of them didn't care.
Anyway, this is a mission, you can get money if you complete it.
This time, if they can bring these rich guys out alive, the rich guys will not only give them more gold coins to repay them, but also help them with free publicity.
After that, I'm afraid you will become rich and famous.
However, Rand had no intention of looking forward to such a bright future.
Fei Ke's idea was too idealistic and could not be realized at all.
"Fei Ke, in the current situation, our own lives are obviously more important!
Our opponent is a high-level monster, we can't hold out for much longer.
There is no way to leave here alive, and all your subsequent plans are in vain."
Rand did love money, but he loved his life more.
How can I spend money if I’m dead?
Rand wanted to escape alone, but halfway through his run, he found that they were surrounded by a group of mountain-eating crocodiles.
Flocks of scavenger birds that live in symbiosis with mountain crocodiles circled in the air, their sharp cries making people dizzy.
"There is no other way out... I would not have earned this money if I had known."
Only now did he feel regretful.
The bonus the old priest promised was so huge that he had no intention of refusing.
The joining of a LV5 swordsman made him overconfident.
The mission was just to have them move around the dungeon in the name of heroes and spread the location of "Miss".
But the two were controlled by their own greed and wanted to make extra money.
This is how the "Brave Travel Group" came into being.
The original plan was to only be active in the first ten floors after entering the dungeon, and at most take the rich guys to experience fighting against mid-level monsters.
Even if you encounter a high-level monster, you can still escape.
But with Rob's joining, their greed deepened.
After arriving at the area after the tenth floor, I thought I could earn more money by relying on the LV5 blade-level swordsman.
After all, they paid the swordsman a lot of money and wanted to squeeze out his value.
Unexpectedly, the swordsman ran away and they were unable to protect themselves.
Finally, the crystal of Fei Ke's amethyst wand was shattered by the mountain-eating crocodile.
At this time he also realized that he had overlooked the most important point, that they could not defeat high-level monsters at all.
Fei Ke was instantly deflated.
The little courage left in his heart disappeared in an instant, and a look of fear crept onto his stiff face.
Turning around, I saw a number of giant crocodiles slowly approaching from behind.
There is no way out.
"It's over. I'm going to die. My balance, my gold coins..."
When Fei Ke looked at the mountain-eating crocodile in front of him again, the giant crocodile seemed to have grown even bigger, and the strong feeling of oppression made him breathless.
The instinct for survival pulled him back continuously, and he finally fell beside his rich friend.
For a moment, Petra was the only one left facing the mountain-eating crocodile.
When the rich guys saw that their only hope had collapsed, they were completely devastated.
"How could this happen? The hero can defeat even the Demon King, so why can't he defeat this demon beast?"
"We will be eaten by these beasts. I don't want to die yet. My brave lord, please quickly set up a defensive barrier, like the one protecting the city of Sojer!"
"You can't win in a fight, and you don't know how to set up a barrier. Are you really a fake?"
Fei Ke huddled into a ball, not listening to what other people were saying.
The rich guys' eyes were focused on the demi-human girl who was fighting alone.
At the same time, the last hope of the rich brothers is also placed on her.
They hadn't expected that in the end they would have to rely on a sub-human to survive.
"Don't lose..."
"You must hold on..."
"Please, don't give up on me, I haven't lived enough."
As Brother Fu prayed silently, Petra was hit by the mountain-devouring crocodile's tail attack and flew backwards.
The still intact wooden sword rotated in the air for who knows how many degrees before finally sticking diagonally next to the girl.
"It's over, it's completely over!"
"It's all your fault, you faker. You're going to kill me!"
"Is there anyone who can save me? I'll pay any gold coins you want!"
Amid the screams and howls of the rich brothers, Petra still wanted to get up and fight again.
But the physical pain made her unable to stand up temporarily.
Seeing the mountain-eating crocodile approaching step by step, there was still no trace of fear in Petra's lively eyes.
At this moment, a voice that only she could hear appeared in her mind.
“Why do you still persist?”
Petra was stunned for a moment, and then she spoke unconsciously: "I can't die before I become a member of the Judge team, before I let my mother live a good life, and before I rescue Mr. Black."
"If you had run away at the beginning, you might have had a chance, but you wasted your precious time for a lowly supporter. Is it worth it?"
Petra's eyes were determined and her tone was firm.
"Mr. Black doesn't care about other people's opinions and doesn't look down on my race. I was a little self-righteous and took it upon myself to treat him as my friend. I couldn't tolerate my only friend being eaten by a monster."
The voice in my head fell silent.
Petra thought she was hallucinating, but the voice appeared again the next second.
"Alas, he is another stupid one indeed."
At some point, a figure appeared behind the girl.
When she just noticed it, the figure had already walked slowly forward, holding her wooden sword in her hand.
