The lizard attacked extremely fast, but Wang Ergouzi still managed to react in time!
Wang Ergouzi nimbly rolled on the spot, dodging the giant lizard's attack, and ran forward without looking back, choosing a random path.
The giant lizard quickly fell from the ceiling, chasing after Wang Ergouzi.
...It runs pretty fast! Don't be fooled by that lizard swishing its rear and tail; it's actually much faster than Wang Ergouzi.
Is this lizard really that straightforward?!
I've already run away, why are you still chasing me?
"Huh..." Wang Ergouzi suddenly paused, taken aback.
I am a celestial dog at the Golden Core stage!
Why are you running?!
Turn around and fight!
Having regained his senses in the rush, Wang Ergouzi began to unleash his fury.
He quickly summoned his natal flying sword and even transformed it into its natal form.
Laser lightsaber.
...Um...like in Star Wars.
Most Golden Core stage players' Blade Spirits are pretty unconventional right now, like Hydra's rocket launcher or White Cat's... I haven't come up with a complete list yet.
The lightsaber hummed twice as it shot towards the lizard.
With a single sword strike, the giant lizard's eyes were sliced off, and it instantly vaporized.
Laser lightsabers have extremely high temperatures!
Whoosh!
The flying sword rolled on the spot and slashed down, cutting the lizard's head off instantly, as easily as slicing cheese.
The giant lizard's legs gave way, and with a loud crash, it slammed to the ground like a mountain collapsing.
So weak!!!
Why did I just run?!
Wang Ergouzi was confused.
Wang Ergouzi, who had just eliminated the lizard, immediately received a system notification.
"Congratulations to the player for defeating the giant lizard. You have gained 400,000 experience points and your exploration progress has increased by one."
Wasteland clearing progress?
So this is a completely new map!
Seeing that his hunger level had decreased considerably, Wang Ergouzi quickly lay down on the giant lizard's corpse and began to eat the meat.
At first, Wang Ergouzi didn't turn off his taste buds, but after taking a couple of bites, he turned them off with a dark expression on his face.
This giant lizard smells like dog poop that's been sitting out for two days!
Don't ask Wang Ergouzi how he knows the smell of dog poop!
Wang Ergouzi devoured lizard meat and drank lizard blood, quickly restoring his health to full.
This is the advantage of players – they're not picky eaters.
If all else fails, eating some stones can also supplement calcium, iron, zinc, and selenium.
While Wang Ergouzi was having his meal, he realized that he seemed to be surrounded.
Numerous eyes peered furtively from hidden places around the giant lizard's carcass and him.
But these gazes couldn't escape Wang Ergouzi's notice!
Wang Ergouzi not only has good eyesight!
My ears are also very sharp!
It's just an average nose.
Hmm... This was a setting that was explained before.
Wang Ergouzi's dog ears clearly heard many footsteps.
The footsteps were like the rustling of tiny insects, very frequent and numerous.
"Who goes there! Show yourself!"
Wang Ergouzi's low shout echoed through the underground space.
Wang Ergouzi struck first!
He's going to try and bluff first, to see if any fools will come forward.
Upon hearing Wang Ergouzi's shout, the footsteps abruptly stopped, then suddenly began to move frequently.
Wang Ergouzi instantly prepared for battle.
"Wind Armor!"
Wang Ergouzi was, after all, a cultivator at the Golden Core stage, and he possessed a wide variety of magical abilities.
When fighting, buff yourself first.
This is common knowledge for players.
Suddenly, many tiny figures, each about ten centimeters tall, appeared from various corners.
One by one, they ran to Wang Ergouzi's front, knelt down, and trembled with fear.
Huh? Wang Ergouzi was taken aback. What were these little people?
How come they were defeated before even starting?
"Please, Great Demon God, spare our lives! We meant no offense." A small, old man with gray hair and a cane stepped out from the crowd and said respectfully and fearfully to Wang Ergouzi.
Great Demon God?
Are you referring to me?
"Congratulations to player Wang Ergouzi for mastering the language of the little people. Please continue to explore the story."
It seems that Heaven found it very interesting and specially sent a system notification.
“We are the Dwarfs of the Underground, and we have lived here for generations. A hundred years ago, this evil dragon came and occupied our land. We were no match for the dragon and had to leave our home. Now, the dragon has been destroyed and eaten by the Great Demon God. We beg the Great Demon God to let us return to our land. We are willing to give everything.”
The little old man started by telling an epic story, which left Wang Ergouzi a little bewildered.
Is the evil dragon referring to that large lizard?
Where exactly does it resemble a dragon?!
We've left our hometown; do you have a well here?
And... where exactly is this so-called clan territory?!
Wang Ergouzi was exhausted by all the things he wanted to complain about.
Looking around, Wang Ergouzi saw that it was just an ordinary underground space.
Perhaps noticing Wang Ergouzi looking around, the little old man pointed to the ground ingratiatingly, "Our clan's territory is located beneath this ground, and only we little people can open it."
"Alright, you don't have to give everything. Just tell us which way we can leave."
After killing the lizard, Wang Ergouzi returned to the crossroads, since he couldn't just wander around aimlessly.
Wang Ergouzi curiously grabbed a little human and examined it closely, finding that apart from being small, it was no different from a human.
The little human being held in Wang Ergouzi's hand had his eyes closed and was trembling with fear.
Seeing how scared the man was, Wang Ergouzi felt it was pointless and put him down. The little man quickly ran to the group of little men and continued to kneel before Wang Ergouzi.
Upon hearing Wang Ergouzi's question, the old man from the Lilliputian race quickly pointed to the path in the middle, "If you want to leave this level, you can go down via the middle path."
"Go down?" Wang Ergouzi shook his head. "I don't want to go down, I want to leave this place. By the way, where is this place?"
The old man from the Lilliputian tribe looked troubled. "This is an underground labyrinth, and it's impossible to go up. Only the bravest who reaches the bottom can leave."
In other words, you can only go down and not up?
"How many floors is the bottom layer?" Wang Ergouzi rolled his eyes. What a hassle. He never liked mazes.
"We little people don't know either. All we know is that to get out, we must defeat the lowest-level labyrinth guardians," the old little man said more cautiously, perhaps sensing Wang Ergouzi's impatience.
"If Your Majesty wishes to leave, we are willing to offer our most powerful Valkyrie as your most loyal subordinate to guide you."
It seemed the little people were afraid of Wang Ergouzi getting angry, so they quickly offered a solution.
In other words, does it mean having the most powerful Valkyrie among the Lilliputians lead the way?
