Glaze took a list from a guard, glanced at it with a solemn expression, and took out several similar lists from the inventory. After comparing them, he crossed out a group of names on each of the two lists.

These are the lists of dead or missing adventure teams that are routinely sent to him every month, recording teams that have not returned to the city for more than two months.

Usually exceeding this time means that those people are in bad luck.

Unless there are special circumstances, very few teams will exhaust the durability of equipment and personal supplies too completely. This will not only increase the risk, but also make repairs to seriously worn equipment much more expensive. That's why the teleport station uses this time standard to judge the team's status, which has always been relatively accurate.

There are cases where the whole team is suspected to have died, and there are also teams where the survivors confirmed that they were disabled. The two groups of names crossed out before were those who had been away for more than two months but had returned safely.

After crossing out these two groups of names, Glaze felt somewhat relieved, but the statistics from these lists showed that nearly 60 job transferees had died or disappeared in the past two months. Even though Lugaoin City had just added thousands of adventure teams, this number still shocked them.

A sudden increase in the death toll several times would make anyone feel extremely uneasy, and the reasons for this have been confirmed by some adventurers who have narrowly escaped death.

Many monsters with leader-level strength appear in the wilderness without warning, and they often gather together. Many teams were caught off guard and suffered fatal attacks.

The same situation also appeared in other human strongholds such as Rogge Camp, and it was even more severe.

The number of job transferees in Rogge's camp was less than one-tenth of Lu Gaoyin's, but the death list Kasha got was almost thirty. Even when he faced the monster army, there were no such casualties. The escape ability of the novice team was really lacking, so those in charge of the camp could only feel regretful.

Fortunately, these news have spread all over the country in recent days, making everyone realize that a new threat has quietly arrived.

Job changers who go out next are more cautious than before, but the risks have still increased several times, and some dangers are simply impossible to guard against.

Just like Mo Bei and others, people who learned about the possibility of a third invasion also connected it with the inexplicable appearance of powerful monsters, but they also did not reach the conclusion that there was an inevitable connection.

Although they don't know how the hell side achieves this kind of combat power transfer, it is obviously not paving the way for a full-scale invasion, because it would be a bit stupid to slowly apply pressure like this.

This situation sounds more like there is a being who wants to suppress the advantages currently shown by the human side in order to maintain the balance of the battle between the two sides.

But this statement also makes people feel unreasonable. It is not that no one doubts the angels of the highest heaven, but there is no evidence to prove that they have the ability to control the combat power of hell.

If the purpose of the person behind it is just to check and balance, then the situation is not bad. As for whether there is a larger conspiracy lurking behind this chaos, we can only hope that there will be a force among humans that can compete with it. .

Can the legend that countless people, including the founding king of the Western Realm, Lakis, have been searching for, can appear again and save the fate of mankind?

It was only after Akali and the others returned that Mo Bei had some understanding of the anomalies that appeared in the wilderness. Because he had been staying at home in the past few days, trying to make a breakthrough on the basis of the second phase of the charge, he was very concerned about the appearance of career changers. No reports of massive losses have been heard of.

And at this time, he was also troubled by another problem that he thought was very serious.

After last night's experience, he felt like he was in Teddy mode. He was attracted to Akali all the time. The scenes from that time flashed over and over in his mind, and his thinking was completely different. It's almost life-threatening to be controlled.

Because it was the first time this happened, he even doubted whether he had unlocked some abnormal attribute.

I like her, but I keep thinking about how the other person looks without clothes, and all kinds of evil thoughts just can't go away. Is this a mental activity that normal people have?

He could only restrain himself and not pay attention to Akali's every move, and then he felt a little calmer inside.

It has to be said that the synchronization rate between the two is still very high. Akali also feels confused and unable to control herself. I couldn't concentrate on training, so I had to dig out the items in my inventory to sort them out.

"There's something wrong with you two!" Alvin said suddenly, staring at Mo Bei with burning eyes.

Mo Bei was startled and almost lost his composure.

When did this guy become so sharp!!??

He felt that he shouldn't have shown anything strange, and this could have been noticed!?

Akali on the side also froze when she heard this, but continued to pretend to focus on the matter at hand and did not look here at all.

Just when the two of them were at a loss, Alvin continued in a persuasive tone:

"Why don't you two talk to each other today? Don't hold it back if you have any conflicts. Tell them and I will help you resolve them. Everyone is fine, ah."

Mo Bei is so speechless. You are the only idiot who can help people mediate conflicts! ?

However, Alvin seemed to be trapped in the peacemaker persona and couldn't extricate himself, and continued:

"Our captain is indeed a bit brutal sometimes, but he has never had bad intentions. Admit this, right? So don't take it personally if there is anything wrong with you."

Mo Bei looked at him with a strange expression, wondering why he was so barbaric. He was so good when he was with me, okay?

And are you sure you're not secretly expressing dissatisfaction with being beaten as a child? How long has passed and I am still resentful. Although it is quite pitiful. . Why don't we think of ways to compensate you in the future? .

"What are you talking about... It's inexplicable. How could there be any conflict between the two of us? By the way, aren't you planning to go out today?"

In the end, he could only hold back this sentence to prevaricate, and hinted that the other party was a little too busy.

"I don't want to go out... Anyway, Akali said she was going to send equipment for repair."

"Look how you've spoiled him..." Mo Bei turned to Akali and said.

Akali pursed her lips and smiled, raised the back of her hand to rub her face gently, her eyes were a little evasive, as if she was still embarrassed by what she had just done.

"I want to study the shock wave fusion technique! Ned's poor mage's range attack is not strong, so I can only shoulder this burden."

As Alvin spoke, he picked up the two freshly cut wooden plugs and looked at them. Then he turned directly into the bear form. He put the two wooden plugs in the bear's nose and tried the size. He felt quite satisfied. Then he turned around and left the yard, heading towards the seaside.

Ned was trying to find some inspiration from Perona's use of the fire spirit, but he was despised for no reason, and his whole person felt bad.

I, an ice mage who is less than level 30, is lame because he lacks large-scale attack methods? Have you ever seen that mage teleport into a group of monsters to share the damage with his human shield without even thinking about it? Doesn't your conscience hurt?

Although the more he thought about it, he became more and more angry, but he still resisted the urge to chase the guy out and freeze him in the sea and let him go with the waves. He couldn't be more serious about this kind of loser!

Turning his head, he continued to look at the fire spirit with envy, and let out a long sigh.
