Chapter 27 Capturing the princess?
At this time, President He Xi still wanted to stop him.
Shi Cai asked aloud:
"How come I heard on the way that since the rift opened, the death rate of adventurers in Hexicheng has been reduced to almost zero?"
The president was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer.
For those who have been to the Rift themselves, it's easy to explain.
But these guys from the Imperial Capital preconceptionally think that they are acting in accordance with the orders of the Empire.
Nothing you say will work.
But he still bit the bullet and said:
"Zero death does not necessarily mean it is not dangerous!"
Shi Cai suddenly laughed out loud.
"What's the danger in a rift that can't even kill a trainee adventurer?"
President He Xi was so angry that he blew his beard and stared, but he was unable to refute.
Yan Yun was a little confused at this time.
Isn't it said that the rift is quite dangerous? How come even trainee adventurers are not in danger?
I could see Yan Yun’s doubts.
President Hexi suddenly felt funny.
He said to the princess with runny nose and tears:
"Your Highness, you must not go there! Dozens of high-level adventurers are seriously injured in the rift every day. They are beaten so badly that they are covered in blood..."
The people sitting around were filled with admiration. The room was full of insiders, and he worked so hard to cover up what the historians had missed.
He is the true pillar of the country!
If all the lower-level officials of the Yanling Empire were like President He Xi, then why would the empire be unhappy?
"Tch, flatterer~"
Shi Cai curled his lips. He didn't understand. There was nothing to hide. Everyone except the princess knew it.
In the end, President He Xi decided on the itinerary to verify the cracks with the "full help" of all his old friends...
Early the next morning, the president and his team followed the crack verification team and rushed to the crack.
There are also a large number of adventurers accompanying him.
The president is very helpless now. No matter what they say, they don't believe it. They just can't get enough of it.
All I can do now is follow Her Highness the Princess all the way and see if I can be persuaded on the way.
The Demon King's Hall.
Yan Mu looked at the few adventurers displayed on the sand table and went a little crazy.
So, where have all my adventurers gone?
Shouldn't it be?
Could it be that the number of gold coins I dropped is too few?
Thinking about it, he silently doubled the number of gold coins.
However, this is not a temporary idea. Sooner or later, the gold coins will have to be increased. Previously, it was because I was worried about not being able to make ends meet.
After some observation, it seems that the adventurers from Qiling Continent are not yet qualified to go bankrupt.
Besides, now that I have enough souls, only by increasing my gold coins can those adventurers experience the fun of lottery.
This will attract more adventurers.
Only then can you earn more souls.
At this time, on the first floor of the maze, a team of sixteen people stayed in a Goblin camp that had just been cleared.
Tawaka is one of them.
Since the president has personally cleaned up the nearby monsters, the monsters inside the maze are not refreshed as fast as slimes.
As a result, this motley team of adventurers, consisting of four senior level members, twelve intermediate level members, and no priest, has made it all the way to its current position.
Coupled with good luck, we encountered a small camp of about thirty goblins.
It can be said that it has been a smooth journey.
I haven't even encountered the Cold Cave Demon Spider...
Everyone stayed here not to rest or anything.
But I wanted to try to see if I could wait for the passing Princess.
After all, this may be the only chance to see Her Royal Highness in this life.
However, good luck will not always favor these adventurers. At this time, seven or eight coyotes have slowly lurked into the bushes near the camp.
Keep an eye on the flaws of several people.
"Ow!"
A wolf howled, and an intermediate adventurer who wanted to find a bush for a while was suddenly frightened and settled in his pants.
What came face to face was a big mouth splattering with fishy saliva.
Seeing that their companions were suddenly attacked, everyone hurriedly ran towards the adventurer whose head had been bitten by the jungle wolf and tossed around.
At this time, there were several sounds of breaking through the air from behind, but there was no sound of footsteps. Before he could turn around, several more screams were heard.
The team was instantly reduced to five members. The two senior adventurers struggled to block the jungle wolf's bite, and their arms were suddenly bloody.
Everything happened too fast, and along the way, the adventurers unknowingly relaxed their vigilance, which resulted in such consequences.
Tawaka and another senior adventurer did not hesitate, and came to the nearest person to help a senior adventurer. After all, the combat power still depends on the senior adventurer.
The consequences of this were also obvious. In less than five minutes, all the struggling intermediate adventurers were eliminated.
Three jungle wolves were lost, and two were killed by four high-level adventurers.
Looking at the five jungle wolves surrounding them again, the remaining three senior adventurers laughed bitterly.
"Everyone, I can only meet you at the Adventurer's Guild station~"
"But I don't want to go out and fuck them like this!"
"Yes, fuck them!"
Tawaka looked at the bloody appearance of the three people, and then looked at himself who seemed to be unscathed, and fell into silence.
The jungle wolves seemed to ignore him, making him embarrassed to take action.
The battle ended quickly right next to Tawaka.
The coyotes are down one again.
Looking at the jungle wolf striding towards him, Tawaka held his breath and did not dare to take a breath.
Fortunately, the leading coyote just sniffed him, turned around and left.
It wasn't until their backs disappeared from sight that Tawaka slowly exhaled.
It really scares the pig-headed man to death!
Although I don’t know why those guys didn’t attack me, but judging from my experience in previous books (novel), it is probably related to the dragon that came to catch me.
In fact, he guessed it right...
The dozen or so people who were kicked out got their wish to see the princess they had longed for.
Her Royal Highness the Princess even personally made way for herself and others.
It's a pity that lying on a stretcher doesn't look very pretty.
Naturally, they did not receive the in-situ treatment that Qin Xin and others received. They simply saved their lives and were sent to the guild's headquarters on a stretcher for further treatment.
But they feel that their life is worth it!
They are the ones that Her Royal Highness the Princess took the initiative to give way to...
The accompanying city lord and president even gave President He Xi a big thumbs up.
As expected, you are still better at acting. Even the wounds on the injured person's body don't show any evidence of forgery.
With their vicious eyes, they even analyzed the specific scenes they encountered in battle from the pattern and distribution of wounds.
If the historian didn't know the imperial decree, he would almost believe it.
He, who had always disliked President He Xi's flattery, actually felt a hint of admiration.
In terms of execution ability, perhaps even his father can't compare to him.
President He Xi’s face turned even darker.
After trying to persuade the princess along the way to no avail, he set his sights on the three old friends, hoping that the rift would be verified and the three old friends would go together.
After all, his strength has been weakened a lot, and he will not be able to enter the rift again in a short time.
Unexpectedly, the three of them ignored it and paid another round of compliments to the princess.
The remaining members of the Rift Verification Team are looking at their noses, and their noses are looking at their hearts.
No intention of interrupting.
Even on the surface, he has an indifferent attitude.
Not taking the danger seriously at all.
The group seemed to be worrying alone.
"Tired, destroy it!"
Watch the princess and her entourage enter the rift.
Only the last option can be launched now.
He called the nearby priest and ordered:
"Enclose the crevice where the injured are exposed and prohibit anyone from approaching."
"By the way, bring the three senior priests of the guild here and keep them on standby."
The pastor took the order and left, but the president still looked melancholy.
The other people didn't take it seriously, said goodbye, and turned back to Hexicheng.
After all, it usually takes anywhere from a few days to several weeks to verify a crack.
There is no need to stay here.
The verification team this time consists of a senior priest, a senior earth-attribute shield warrior, a wood-attribute senior shield warrior, a thunder-attribute swordsman, as well as historical talents who have just entered the advanced level, Yan Yun who has touched the edge of the extraordinary.
In addition to being a talented person, it can be said to be extremely luxurious.
Shi Cai: Don’t mention my name!
Everyone except Shi Cai knew about Yan Yun's strength.
I was shocked for a long time.
You must know that under the age of twenty-six, it is difficult to touch the edge of transcendence, even if the royal family has an unlimited supply of Naling Crystals.
After all, the extraordinary level requires talent. No amount of Naling Crystals can make a mediocre person without extraordinary level talent break through to the extraordinary level.
Shi Cai, who had been watched several times for no apparent reason, always felt offended.
The goal of this verification team is very clear: to explore as far inside as possible.
After all, with this crack reaching a height of six to seven meters, the one with the highest strength would probably be around the extraordinary level.
With four top-notch advanced adventurers in his team now, plus a near-supernatural princess, there is absolutely no problem.
Shi Cai: Shall I leave?
There were also a large number of adventurers following everyone into the rift. If they could only verify the team, it would be too late for the adventurers to hide.
After all, these guys are notorious for looking down on adventurers in safe areas.
But who let the princess be inside...
[The Princess was detected near the Immortal Labyrinth. Please prepare the kidnapping of the Princess as soon as possible. 】
The Demon King, who was sitting on the throne with his legs crossed and eating the summoned grapes, suddenly widened his eyes.
Look at the golden spot under the pop-up window on the edge of the sand table.
With a thought, a screen appeared above the light spot.
The picture shows a plump big sister with a very gentle and contagious smile that makes people feel like spring breeze.
"A gentle big sister type princess?"
He was a little surprised.
It seems that this kind of thing has never appeared in novels. In Blue Star, Yan Mu also read a lot of novels and anime about Demon King and Warrior. Most of the princesses are cute little lolita type, and a few are energetic girl type.
But he just wanted to say:
"amazing!"
This kind of grown-up princess is simply a benefit to me!
Don't think about it.
Simple Yan Mu felt that such a gentle elder sister would not cry or cry if she was caught here.
After all, what I fear most is girls who cry.
Just thinking about it makes my scalp go numb.
He stood up directly, jumped high into the sky, turned into a black and golden dragon, flapped his wings and flew towards the entrance where the princess entered.
As the princess entered, a large number of following adventurers poured out of the dark tunnel, almost continuously.
Many adventurers who entered the maze for the first time were shocked.
This also includes Yan Yun.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is a miracle to see the endless flat grassland. There are no ups and downs at all as far as the eye can see.
Not to mention the weird high wall in the distance that is many times higher than the [-]-foot city wall of the imperial capital.
She believed that gods once lived here.
As an imperial princess, her knowledge is naturally not comparable to that of these ordinary adventurers.
You must know that in those extremely high-level space rifts, the highest level of civilization is equivalent to the current Qiling Continent.
I can't imagine what kind of existence it is that actually built such a wonder.
And why is the crack level so low?
There were a large number of adventurers leading the way along the way, and the verification team was quite happy. They continued until they reached the entrance of the Immortal Labyrinth, where most of the middle and low-level adventurers stopped.
When the crowd entered the Immortal Labyrinth, Yan Mu also stopped on the high wall above their heads, but he was not immediately exposed.
There are still too many people down there.
Although I really want to pretend to be 13, but how can a max-level boss lick his face and run to a group of adventurers in their twenties and thirties to pretend.
It's just a shame.
Moreover, after pretending, the adventurers looked at it and said, hey, it’s okay.
No one was injured.
This devil's face has been lost to his grandma's house.
All we have to do now is wait for the opportunity.
The guard BOSS room at the back is a good time.
The gatekeeper lord can only enter the upper limit of 12 adventurers each time. After passing the level, you can choose to return to the first floor or go to the second floor.
However, a lord's room can only be cleared once a day.
After entering the second-floor maze, there is currently no way to return, you can only die.
But this is not something difficult to solve.
Do you want to know about the teleportation potion worth [-]?
There are also return scrolls and the like, but I can’t afford them now.
But as long as the princess is caught, the matter will be solved.
The first floor of the maze, the Goblin camp.
Tawaka stared blankly in the direction where the dragon disappeared just now, thinking of the news that went viral outside the rift yesterday and that the princess personally came to verify the rift.
I felt a chill running down my back. Why is this plot so familiar to me?
Is the story translated into reality?
Or are you in the story yourself?
He suddenly felt that his pig head was not enough.
He shook his head vigorously to get rid of his ridiculous thoughts.
How can a person live in a storybook~
I must have read too many novels and got confused.
But just in case, he still chose to chase the direction where the dragon disappeared.
At the very least, you should pass on your guesses.
Although he felt that the chances of those adventurers believing it were small.
And the fact was as he expected, the group of adventurers laughed after hearing this.
"If the dragon wants to capture the princess, why wait until now?"
"That's right, you guys just want to show off in front of the princess!"
The historian is even more shameless in his words:
"If the giant dragon really dares to come, I, the young master of the Shi family, will have to become a dragon-slaying hero again, hahaha."
Yan Mu currently chose to change back to his human form, sitting on the high wall and looking at the people laughing and joking below.
It looks like someone told some interesting joke.
"I really want to know! Damn it!"
