Linda didn't particularly like the orcs, except for Lulu and a few other team members.
More than 70% of this race are all muscle and no brains. In the later stages of the game, they will be seduced by the Doomsday Cult and stand against the adventurers.
Moss's face flushed and paled, then he gritted his teeth and said, "The situation is critical! If this continues, the Giant Rhinoceros Adventure Team will suffer further losses! Please, have mercy and save us!"
Linda: "So, it's a 'request for help,' not a 'cooperation,' right?"
"Um, well..."
The two characters differ, but their meanings are quite different.
Seeing Moss's hesitation, Linda shook her head and said, "Then forget it, let's find other boss-level monsters and defeat them ourselves."
"Wait—wait a minute! Yes, it's 'call for help'!"
Seeing Linda about to leave, Moss was on the verge of tears.
He understood what Linda meant.
If it's a cooperative venture, the spoils will be split equally between the two sides.
But if they ask for help, the Giant Rhino Adventure Team will not get a single piece of the spoils!
They saved your life, and you still want spoils?
Orcs may be thick-skinned, but they're not that thick-skinned.
"The Phoenix Tail Flower has agreed to support you, so lead the way quickly." Lin Da turned back.
“No way.” Kaphni stopped Linda, glancing at Moss with disdain: “Do you really think we, the Phoenix, are some kind of elven lady in a tavern, to be summoned and dismissed at will? One hundred thousand gold coins, or forget it!”
"What? That's going too far!"
Moss's face flushed red as he roared, "With the monster tide looming, we're all adventurers. You're disregarding the bigger picture and still thinking about asking my Giant Rhino Adventure Team for money? Do you even know what 'putting the bigger picture first' means?"
"ha!?"
Kaphni kicked Moss in the stomach with a thud.
Moss was furious, but like a worker begging for a favor, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and swallow his anger: "You... how could you hit someone?"
"Screw the bigger picture!"
Kafni rolled up her sleeves, ready to strike a few more times. "Trash orc! If you knew the bigger picture, why did you try to scare your father with a crossbow earlier? Either give me 100,000, or get out of here!"
"you...!"
Moss's eyes were practically bulging out, and his fists were clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
But thinking of his teammates still in danger behind him, Moss released his fist in humiliation. He looked at Captain Linda, feeling that this human was easier to talk to:
"And you, you just promised to help even if you didn't want the gold coins, right?"
Linda thought for a moment and said, "No, I've changed my mind. The team members are right, 100,000 gold coins, or it's off the table."
Moss eventually gave in.
To put it bluntly, this orc had no right to bargain.
The only team in the vicinity capable of defeating the Black-Armored Crab General is the Phoenix Tail Flower.
"100,000 gold coins... I'll pay!" Moss said angrily, "But let me make this clear beforehand, I don't have that many gold coins on me. The team's adventure funds are all with Captain Lai Xi!"
"There's no time to lose, lead the way."
Linda nodded.
A short while later.
The group found the Black-Armored Crab General who was wreaking havoc.
The scene was a mess, with crimson liquid everywhere.
Two front-line members of the Giant Rhinoceros Adventure Team were killed, their bodies chopped into several pieces by the blade and pincers.
Lai Xi, Fini, and three other team members were exhausted from running around.
Fortunately, the healer had learned the spell 'Swift Wind', otherwise they would have been caught up by the Black-Armored Crab General long ago.
"Moss, you've finally arrived!"
Lai Xi's tense expression eased slightly upon seeing his reinforcements.
However, when Lai Xi noticed that there were only three of them, and their levels and auras were not high, his heart tightened again.
"You're the captain?" Linda said calmly. "Just a heads up, this is a paid rescue operation. 100,000 gold coins, and I'll help you deal with the monsters. Of course, all the spoils are ours."
"If it can be done, of course there's no problem."
Lai Xi, breathless from being chased, arrived near Luanweihua, his eyes filled with deep doubt.
He glanced at Moss questioningly, as if to say: What's going on?
Moss nodded vigorously, his eyes replying: Captain, don't worry, these people are absolutely fine!
"Let's go." Without saying a word, Lin Da led his two teammates toward the Black Armored Crab General, which was approaching from afar like a war chariot, with a rumble.
Their composure stood in stark contrast to the disheveled rhinoceros adventure team.
In particular, the grade of the Phalaenopsis is much lower!
Fini, the dolphin girl, looked at Linda with great interest.
The members of the Giant Rhinoceros Adventure Team didn't seem saddened by the deaths of the two front-line warriors. Fini's attention was even focused on Linda's lower body—dolphins are worse than foxes and snakes, and are extremely lewd animals.
Fini secretly decided that if this trainee team could really take down the Black-Armored Crab General, she wouldn't mind rewarding them with her own body.
Linda stood at the front, sword in hand, with Kaphni and Monica beside her.
The distance between the Phoenix Tail Flower and the Black-Armored Crab General is getting closer and closer.
When they were within 20 meters, Linda charged forward.
He chanted a spell rapidly and threw out a purple magic orb.
Kaphni then used the level 15 rogue skill 'Assassination'.
His figure became concealed, his aura almost disappeared, and he quietly slipped behind the Black-Armored Crab General.
Monica chanted a spell to bombard the earth, and a brown magic circle appeared in the air.
Battle is about to break out!
The Venom Orb was the first to strike, hitting the Black-Armored Crab General.
Like an ice bucket in summer, it instantly extinguished the monster's anger, corroding a hole in its hard shell, causing it to hiss in pain.
