"boom!"
Like a missile being launched, the dark hatchet embedded itself into the wall with a rumble.
"Ahhhhhh-!"
The minotaur, which was not yet fully born, was stillborn. Before dying, it let out a miserable scream. The black smoke dissipated, and only a fist-sized magic stone fell to the ground.
"Monster?"
The ugly toad-like woman came over, picked up the hatchet, looked around, and didn't see anyone.
"You all should be watched carefully by me! If the legendary beautiful boy escapes from here, don't blame me for not being considerate of my companions!"
After shouting in a voice like a broken gong, she left the passage with a hatchet and continued to search the area on the 15th floor.
"Tsk, when did that ugly guy show mercy? He always snatches away the man we like!"
It wasn't until she left that a hooded woman looked angrily.
"Continue patrolling. It should be on these floors. I hope she can let us drink some soup when she eats meat..."
Several other people sighed one after another, and then continued to wander around the entrance of the passage.
"Having brown skin and stealing men... is this Amazon's style?"
at the corner.
Jiang Li's figure appeared here without warning, as if the space was moving. Seeing that no one noticed, he stepped back step by step, and then walked quickly towards the depths.
…………
Level 16.
After reuniting with Line and Lefiya, Jiang Li informed the two of them about the information he had gleaned.
"The Amazons are blocking the entrance to the 14th floor?"
"Is there another ugly girl whose strength is comparable to Miss Tiona?"
Line and Lefiya looked at each other, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.
"Among the Amazons with so many high-level adventurers, Ishtar Familia should be the only ones, but do they actually dare to attack us?"
After all, they are also Loki Familia, one of the strongest Familia of Orario, and they are proud of being a member of the strongest Familia.
When walking outside, almost no one dares to take the initiative to provoke them. Even the Freya Familia, which is also the strongest Familia, there is rarely any real conflict between the two parties.
"Not everyone in this world is rational."
Jiang Li shook his head.
If intelligent creatures used reason to restrain themselves, there wouldn't be so much rubbish in the world, but most people would choose to follow their own desires.
Especially his charm is enough to make people lose their minds.
That ugly girl probably knew about him from somewhere, or had met him once before, and then threw away her brain.
"What should we do now?"
Lefiya looked at Line on the left and Jiang Li on the right, looking a little at a loss.
"I'm afraid the three of us are all being targeted. We shouldn't be able to get out in pieces... Do we have to wait for the cadres of the dependent clan to rescue us?"
Linie frowned slightly, and she was also a little undecided.
"But support won't arrive until at least tomorrow morning."
Jiang Li retorted: "And now those Amazons are searching layer by layer. They will definitely find us before tomorrow morning."
The Loki Familia does not have the habit of checking wards at night. At least until tomorrow morning, the Familia cadres will find out that they have not returned home all night, and then send people to rescue them.
But the Amazons are coming soon, and they can't wait that long.
Breaking through from the front is never a good idea.
If there were only some Lv.2 or Lv.3 adventurers in those Amazons, it would not be difficult for them to take some risks and get through, but the trouble is that there is also a Lv.5 among them.
That ugly girl whose sense of oppression is comparable to Tiona's is definitely Level 5.
It would take at least an hour for them to get back to the ground from here. It was impossible for them to win against Level 5 in an hour-long chase.
"Um... Then hide and seek with them in the maze?"
Lefiya made a somewhat naive suggestion.
If we can continue to deal with the Amazons in the maze, it will be enough if we can hide safely until tomorrow morning, but the shortcomings of this plan are also very obvious.
"It depends too much on luck, I don't recommend it."
Jiang Li shook his head, paused, and continued: "There is another very important thing - we have no food."
"Gululu~"
As soon as they mentioned food, the stomachs of the three of them growled loudly, making Lefiya blush instantly.
"Without food, that's really the worst possible situation."
Linye touched her flat belly, and the look on her face couldn't help but look ugly.
Stamina potions can only restore stamina, but cannot replace food.
Once they don't eat or drink water for a long time, their condition will definitely decline significantly, their brains will become unclear, and their bodies will lose strength... Let alone escaping Amazon's hunt, I am afraid that even the monsters in the dungeon will be difficult to fight against.
"There is a safer way."
Line struggled for a while, but finally chose to speak out.
"what way?"
Jiang Li just planned to say that he was going up to attract the attention of Level 5, so that they could take the opportunity to escape back to the family members for help. When he heard Line's voice, he looked over in surprise.
"18th floor."
Line raised an index finger with a solemn expression.
"The 18th floor is a safe floor in the dungeon. Monsters will not breed there, and there are fruits special to the dungeon. There are even adventurers who have built streets there!"
"Is there such a place?"
Jiang Li was surprised. He had been here for twenty days, but he had never heard of such a thing.
"Because we wouldn't go in at all, so we didn't say anything."
Linye shook her head.
They all leave early and come back late, and rarely enter the 18th floor, so they did not introduce them to Jiang Li.
"If the 18th floor is a safe floor and there are even adventurers to settle down, that is indeed the most suitable place for us to stay."
Jiang Li's expression cheered up slightly.
"When we get there, we can use high wages to let some adventurers report the news to the Familia for us. In that case, even the Istar Familia with Level 5 will not be able to make any trouble, right?"
It is impossible for the Amazons to risk the disapproval of the world and directly block the passage. Their purpose should only be to let Jiang Li and the others stay below, so as not to stop other adventurers.
This method is much safer than the method he thought.
If he chooses his method, he is confident that he can escape safely from Level 5, but Line and Lefia may be targeted by other Amazons, which is not advisable.
"That's what I thought too."
Line also smiled and nodded in agreement, but then her heart became heavy again.
"The only problem is that there may be a lonely king of the maze deep in the 17th floor..."
really.
If they happen to meet the floor owner who has completed pregnancy, it will be miserable. In a real sense, it will become a death situation with a tiger in front and a wolf behind.
No.
Rather, if Jiang Li is in this team, I am afraid that such a situation will not be accidental, but inevitable.
"...Let's go and have a look."
Jiang Li closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his head.
"Thinking about it here is not an option. The more you hesitate now, the closer the danger will be. We must take action now. As for the situation, we will wait until the time comes!"
When he said this, he looked very determined, as if he had made a decision.
"good!"
Line and Lefia looked at each other and nodded solemnly in response.
