His only task was to help the adventure team clear the level.
Deaths are normal.
No one died, everyone's happy.
In contrast, Linda's approach of prioritizing the safety of everyone is somewhat unconventional.
Seeing that Linda still didn't intend to agree, Phyllis reluctantly took out the last savings card: "That's a total of 100,000 gold coins, please!"
Linda sighed.
For the sake of the gold coins... cough, for the sake of Phyllis's sincerity, I accepted the three gold storage cards.
"Let me make it clear beforehand, this is just a regular guide, it might be quite rough, so don't even think about getting it without taking any damage."
Phyllis was overjoyed: "As long as you agree! Then, I'll come and pick it up in three days."
"Don't come here then, go to Villa No. 003 in the Canary Community."
"Canary Village?"
Phyllis paused for a moment, "The one in the city center?"
“Yes.” Linda nodded.
Phyllis held back for a long time before finally uttering two words: "Awesome."
A villa in the Canary Community costs at least a million dollars.
The residents there were mainly business owners.
Also, the three Iron-level adventure teams from White Dove City are all located in the Canary District.
Having received Linda's promise, Phyllis returned to the inner city feeling relieved.
These past few days, he'd been constantly urged by Lia, and it felt like a huge weight was hanging over his heart. Now that he'd gotten Linda's consent, the weight had been lifted, and he could finally get a good night's sleep.
Linda loaded all the furniture onto the carriage and returned to the villa.
They worked until late at night before finally stopping to rest.
The villa's living room was still spacious, but with tables and chairs placed there and decorative paintings hung on the walls, it became more lively and no longer felt cold.
In the bedroom, each person laid out the bedding they had chosen and put up some wallpaper. Looking at the newly renovated bedroom, a sense of accomplishment welled up inside them.
Linda's room was in the center, Monica's was right next to his, and Kaphni went to the far end of the corridor.
After preparing a simple dinner, the three said goodnight to each other in the hallway and went into their new bedrooms.
Lying on the soft, large bed, the magic circle on the ceiling was activated, creating a view of the Milky Way through a transparent skylight—beautiful, cool, and breathtaking!
The environment and facilities here are worlds apart from those in a rented cabin.
Feeling the softness of the large bed, Linda was overwhelmed with emotions.
He rolled over, found a more comfortable position, and opened the system's back-house interface.
[System notification: Sign-in successful, received 2200 diamonds!]
I also checked out the Hell Rift.
Upon opening, you'll see three chibi-style characters being eaten by the Heart-Eating Demon Worm, their little legs comically sticking out of the worm's mouth.
Then the demonic insect gulped down the team member.
Challenge failed
Four large red characters appeared on the screen. After a short wait, the game restarted, and the team members continued their tireless challenge against the demonic insects...
"If I could also join the battle, getting through this shouldn't be a problem."
Linda thought to herself. His healing power and extremely high health would buy Lulu time to deal damage, and coupled with his passive skill [Captain's Aura], which increases the damage of all team members within a ten-meter radius by 10%, it could greatly improve the success rate.
But in this hellish rift, almost all he could do was 'watch'.
Suddenly, he noticed a small red door popping up above the circular arena. Clicking on the door revealed a list:
[Freedom Challenge]
【Coyote Adventure Team, Challenge Difficulty: High】
【Valiant Adventure Team, Challenge Difficulty: High】
【Ice Flower Adventure Team, Challenge Difficulty: Hard】
[White Dove Adventure Team, Challenge Difficulty: Hell]
[Number of refreshes available today: 1]
"Is this...an extra activity?"
Linda blinked in surprise. The teams on the challenge list were all ones he had encountered in real life.
I tried clicking on the White Dove Adventure Team, and the screen suddenly switched to an open space that looked like a dojo.
[Battle Begins]
Three chibi-style members of the Phoenix Flower team descended from the sky, landing on the left side of the dojo. On the right, a magic circle opened, and a chibi-style male swordsman with a long blue ponytail, wearing a white robe and squinting eyes stepped out.
On the left and right sides were 'Wild Panther' Kit and 'Insightful' Gale, with seven other team members with distinctive appearances behind them.
Linda's eyes changed. The squinty-eyed swordsman was none other than Abner, the leader of the White Dove Adventurer Group, a veteran Star-Rank adventurer!
As Abner drew and sheathed his sword, a killing intent erupted between the three members of the Phoenix Flower team.
Kafni and Monica instantly turned into black and white portraits, while Lulu entered a low-health state. With a roar, her battle aura turned pitch black, and her eyes turned crimson!
This is... Lulu has been knocked out of the second stage and has activated her witch form!
