Even in a one-on-one fight, Aiko believed that Lia was inferior to Isha. The reason was simple: Lia wasn't very bright.
Normally, it would be Linda who was responsible for persuading her at a time like this; this dreadful task shouldn't fall to her. Eko sighed again, adopting a more amiable expression, and said to the indignant Leah:
"Captain, shall we go to the small secret realm in the wild or hunt monsters? We've run out of resources from conquering level 11, and we need to replenish them. Potions, magic scrolls, and the armor of the front row are all damaged. The loot we got from level 11 isn't even a fifth of what we lost."
The methodical analysis silenced Leah.
Suddenly, it dawned on them: the Snow Goose Adventure Team was out of money!
The props need to be replenished, and the equipment of the front row needs to be replaced.
Orlu was also injured.
Even with healing techniques, it still takes half a month to recover.
The difficulty of conquering floors 10 and above increases significantly.
Lia had also sensed this, and she was considering equipping her teammates with return scrolls.
However, return scrolls for levels 10-20 are much more expensive than those for levels 0-10.
Buying a Town Portal Scroll requires gold coins, as do magical items.
Leah felt a little embarrassed.
The three main members all had purple rare weapons, and she herself was equipped with purple rare equipment from head to toe, having already spent almost all of her adventure funds!
It seems that what Aiko said makes sense. Going down to the 12th floor in this state is not good.
"Um, Captain, I have something to say."
Orlu's one hand was wrapped like a mummy, hanging in front of him with a white cloth, while his other healthy left hand was raised, and he spoke hesitantly.
"What is it?" Leah asked.
"Should we hire Linda to help us with the strategy for level 12?"
"Absolutely not!"
Leah's expression changed, and she immediately slammed her hand on the table in refusal!
"But..."
"There's no 'but' about it. Asking him for a strategy guide would just mean our Snow Goose Adventure Team is incompetent, wouldn't it?"
Lia interrupted Oru.
Everyone fell silent.
After conquering the eleventh floor, most people gradually realized a harsh reality: Xueyan's strength was not due to the genius swordsman Liya.
It was Linda.
But no one could persuade this fiery-eyed redhead.
Phyllis glanced at Oru furtively, thinking that it seemed the team members all agreed with Linda's strategy.
The latter noticed Phyllis's gaze and said in a muffled voice, "If only Brother Linda were here, I would only suffer minor injuries at most."
Phyllis detected a faint hint of sarcasm in Orlu's words.
He smiled but didn't say anything.
He secretly thought that Linda must have left the team penniless because she violated the contract, and he heard that she couldn't even afford a decent set of equipment.
If that's the case, why doesn't he use the gold coins to ask Linda for help with the strategy? Even though Leah disagrees, he can just keep it from Leah and secretly go to Linda.
Phyllis admires Linda's strategic abilities even more than she admires her own teacher, and has long wanted to meet her!
Just because Leah and Linda don't get along doesn't mean that the team members have to have a bad relationship with Linda, right?
"that,"
Leah suddenly sat awkwardly at the end of the conference table, playing with her long, bright red hair, and said nonchalantly, "Does anyone know what that traitor is doing now?"
“Linda?” Kayne asked.
"hold head high."
Leah felt uneasy upon hearing the name, picked up the cooling array controller in the conference room, and switched it to the powerful fan mode.
Krona, who had been intently spinning the Rubik's Cube, looked up and raised her little hand: "I know, I know!"
"I heard when I went to buy a new puppet toy that Uncle Linda, the nobody, has actually formed a team!"
"Build a team?" Leah laughed, shook her head, and said, "He can find teammates and build a team with him? He probably just grabbed someone randomly."
No, not at all.
It was Eiko who spoke.
Despite being in a wheelchair, she is actually the messenger of the Snow Goose Adventure Team and often enjoys going out for a stroll, basking in the admiring glances of a group of adventurers.
Aiko's tone held a hint of jealousy: "I heard she's an orc girl, and she's level 25 in the adventurer level test."
Level 25...?
Leah fell silent.
The highest level member of the Snow Goose Adventure Team is only level 24.
It's still Eiko.
As the team leader, she was only level 23.
"Why would someone like that join Linda's team?"
"I don't know," Aiko replied.
"It's definitely a scam."
Leah felt a lump in her throat and couldn't swallow it.
Why did Linda leave the Snow Goose Adventure Team? It seems like everything went smoothly.
A busty blonde woman liked him, and then a high-level orc girl came along.
Hearing that there were other girls around Linda, and the news about 'Aiko hugging Linda' mentioned in the White Dove Morning Post the day before yesterday, made Leah feel inexplicably uncomfortable.
Eko actually likes that traitor...
Fortunately, they had an open and honest conversation. Aiko said that it was all nonsense from the newspapers, and that she, like Leah, shared a common hatred for Linda and was determined to punish that traitor.
Leah regained her composure and asked again, "What's Linda's team called?"
"It seems to be the Phoenix Flower Adventure Team," said Aiko.
"A weak name," Leah scoffed.
"The iris is a common flower in the orc territory, you know? It represents friendship and companionship." Aiko tilted her head, looking innocent and charming. "Is Linda subtly mocking us?"
