[This is just a beginner’s filter dungeon, how co there are such advanced hidden tasks?]
[Right! No one has ever triggered a side quest before, has the dungeon been reworked?]
[There’s even an unknown boss now, and it’s known that bosses of unknown levels are extrely rare and often above the SSS tier.]
[In this dungeon, she can summon a boss of SSS level that listens to her, trigger hidden tasks, hidden bosses, and side quests, is she pulling strings behind the scenes?]
Josh glanced at the barrage: "Weakness is the original sin, stop complaining."
"And as a newbie, sorry for outshining all of you~"
[Damn it, why is she insulting people again?]
She ignored the barrage and turned to search for equipnt.
She conducted divination three tis in a row, and all three pointed toward Fuer backstage.
Could it be that her second piece of equipnt is with Fuer?
This is a bit tricky.
Josh looked at the big guy: "Who’s stronger, you or Fuer?"
The big guy shook his head fearfully.
Josh thought for a mont, true enough.
One’s a monster in the dungeon, the other’s an NPC in the dungeon, there’s no comparison.
But Fuer is an NPC, and she was doing divination to find equipnt.
Can NPCs drop equipnt?
The ga rules forbid killing NPCs.
She recalled triggering the little monkey’s side quest and gaining favor.
Is it about strategizing with Fuer, maxing out favor to get a gear drop?
Josh stared in the direction of the backstage, deep in thought.
The other five were still aimlessly searching for trigger monsters to farm equipnt.
Josh was just continuously circling the edge of the performance stage around lions, little monkeys, dolls, and even octopuses.
Afternoon.
Josh was utterly exhausted, lying in the big guy’s arms.
She exchanged for so antipyretics on Pinduoduo, but it was useless.
Her constitution was just too weak.
Josh coughed, then slowly closed her eyes.
The big guy’s body was pieced together from various monster remnants and had no warmth.
Josh felt scorching all over, curled up on it, feeling uncomfortably comfortable, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
In a blur, she felt her body slowly sinking.
A faint sound of flowing water ca to her ears.
In the darkness, a glimr of light was approaching.
She felt a chill, her chest being crushed, unable to breathe.
Cold, so cold.
Where is Master?
Where are the senior brothers and sisters?
She felt so uncomfortable, why aren’t the senior sisters coming to hug her?
As she thought this, the distant light drew nearer.
"Junior sister! Junior sister! Wake up!"
It was the voice of her senior sister.
Josh slowly opened her eyes and saw the second and third senior sisters by the bedside.
The second senior sister held a bowl of dicine: "See, you know you’re weak, yet you braved the wind and fell sick? Quickly, drink the dicine!"
The third senior sister held a packet of sweet fruits: "Second sister, don’t nag at her, little junior sister’s already sick."
She turned to Josh: "Be a good girl and drink the dicine, I’ll give you so candy~"
Josh grinned: "Thank you, senior sister!"
The eldest senior brother pushed open the door: "Where’s Seventh Junior Sister? I’m so mad! That little bastard, pretending to be to steal wine, the Third Elder smashed my Infinite Peak!"
The fourth senior brother’s jovial laughter approached from afar: "Is Little Qi ho? I’ve created a new poison, co help test it since you’re sensitive!"
The second senior sister glared: "Enough! Don’t you know Little Qi has a fever? Do you want her dead?"
The fifth and sixth senior brothers pushed their way in: "You’re wrong, let’s find Little Qi and ask her about that dice ga, was it up or down last ti?"
Josh looked at her senior brothers and sisters, eyes welling with tears: "Senior brothers, senior sisters..."
"Why are you crying, junior sister? Did anyone bully you?!"
"It’s your fault, our little junior sister still has a fever, can you be quiet and let her rest?"
"Who made my Little Qi cry?" Master’s voice ca from outside.
Josh’s eyes brightened: "Master..."
Before she could see her master, an overwhelming frost covered them.
In an instant, the lively figures turned into icy statues, and the warmth of the bedroom beca a devil’s lair.
Her body was uncontrollably pushed back.
The voices from the sect ca from the devil’s lair.
"Little junior sister, run! You must survive!"
Josh struggled fiercely, calling out instinctively: "Master, senior brothers, senior sisters... wait for , I’ll co back to save you!"
She was pulled into endless darkness.
Soone approached from behind, an indistinct chuckle resonated.
Josh’s eyes suddenly cleared.
The rmaid swam out of the darkness, his tail glowing with a dim blue light, illuminating the way ahead.
Only then did Josh realize she was floating underwater.
The beautiful rmaid King smiled, approaching slowly, tenderly cupping her face: "Poor little thing, is this your weakness?"
Josh stared blankly ahead, her gaze level with the rmaid’s but unfocused.
The rmaid gently brushed away her disheveled strands of hair, looking down at her finely featured face, eyes full of bewitching amusent.
"Do you want to fulfill your wish?"
Josh, like a soulless puppet, responded: "I do."
The rmaid’s smile deepened: "Then bring the key."
"What is the key?" Confusion flickered in Josh’s unfocused yet beautiful eyes.
"The key is just the key."
"Go on, beautiful little one, I’ll be waiting here for your return."
Josh slowly opened her eyes, seeing herself still lying in the big guy’s arms.
The big guy worriedly patted her head: "Earlier, you were in such pain."
Josh smiled slightly: "I’m fine now."
The rmaid King’s magic wasn’t all that profound.
He went to great lengths to create such an illusion just to have her find the key for him?
The key... hmm...
Seems like Fuer is the key to advancing the dungeon.
Based on Fuer’s post-performance explanation, soone here dies every day.
However...
She coughed, stroked the little black dog beside her, reheated the leftover grilled octopus legs, making a fail-safe sauce-flavored barbecue, and sent it over to Fuer.
Dusk fell.
Fuer had just awakened and was dressing up backstage.
Josh brought over the calamari: "Here, a little sothing for you to try."
Fuer raised an eyebrow at her: "What, trying to bribe ?"
Josh smiled, her fragile appearance surprisingly inviting abuse: "Certainly not."
Fuer’s gaze lingered on her face, then he coldly said: "Good, because bribing never works."
Josh placed the octopus on the table: "I bet you haven’t tasted your own underlings. Isn’t soone who sotis eats their subordinates when in a good mood more interesting than soone who just cruelly whips them?"
Fuer gave her a strange look, adjusted his hat, "Then I’ll reluctantly give it a try."
Josh smirked, knowing she guessed correctly.
