Chapter 243 242 Common Language MAX
Said weird things!
I have personally experienced why both the good guys and the bad guys like to make endless declarations when they are sure of victory. It feels good to just talk a few words!
It’s worth it to specially create a voice Puji!
It's a pity that they are just some small fry. I can't wait to tell all the heroes the victory declarations I have accumulated over the years!
[Seven Sins of Greed Trigger]
Human Common Language: LV9 → LV10
[Blunt Weapon Mastery: LV4→LV5]
[Crossbow Mastery: LV6 → LV7]
…
The flesh and blood of the bandits were quickly decomposed and absorbed, while the remaining bones, tattered leather armor and weapons were swallowed up by several acid monsters with a slight corrosion sound.
Before long, apart from a few fresh earth pits, there was no trace of the seven bandits left in the area.
I have reached the maximum level of common language, but unfortunately it doesn't mean much.
At LV9, there was no barrier to communication. I guess the only things I didn't understand were some unfamiliar words. Now that it's reached the top, the symbolic meaning is far greater than the actual meaning. It's a pity that one has accomplished everything but not much has changed.
But it’s a good thing after all!
After collecting all the Pujis one by one, Lin Jun let Dylan go back to the dungeon by himself.
Dylan saw the greatly changed Dumbwind Town and the crowds of people nearby looking for mushrooms.
Since there was no one at the horse post in Yafeng Town, Dylan could only trade the chestnut horse to a group of adventurers, and then entered the dungeon alone.
An adventurer who had just completed a deal with Dylan looked at him walking into the entrance without hesitation. He couldn't help but shake his head and whispered to his companion: "Tsk, there are really people who don't care about their lives. Come in now..."
Dylan walked along the strange yet familiar passage, his eyes sweeping over the terrifying cracks that could be seen everywhere, and he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
But since the boss had clearly guaranteed safety, he chose to believe it.
Sure enough, after stepping into the second floor, those disturbing cracks were mostly reduced, and as they went further down, they almost disappeared completely. Dylan breathed a sigh of relief and his steps became lighter.
Going all the way down, Lin Jun told him about the changes in the dungeon in his mind. The most gratifying thing was the increase of "half-mushroom people"!
When Lao Di left, only Xiao Hei lived with him in the Mushroom Forest, but now there are many more people!
In addition to Piglet and Norris, there are also demons and cavemen.
Dylan was also sincerely happy about the growth of the mushroom garden!
This feeling of "no longer being alone" is so good that he can hardly wait to meet these new companions he has never met before.
Arriving at the fifth floor, Dylan subconsciously walked towards the corner where he had built the mushroom house. However, time had passed and the place had changed beyond recognition.
The former nest is nowhere to be seen, replaced by a rough stone tablet standing there alone.
On the surface of the stone tablet, there were a few lines of words engraved in a crooked common language that clearly lacked carving skills:
[Here rest the fellow travelers on the mushroom road, the followers who swore by mycelium]
[You witnessed the first bonfire, and fell before the unfinished dawn]
[Rest in peace, my friend]
Dylan's heart sank.
Someone actually sacrificed themselves!
Dylan thought about it and agreed.
Although the boss said that the mushroom garden is no longer what it used to be, the process was certainly not smooth sailing. He just chose not to mention the pain.
The joy in my heart quietly faded away, and a heavy sadness spread.
This fellow traveler whom I have never met but who is buried here... at least let me know your name.
Dylan squatted down and, with respect, carefully brushed away the dirt and moss at the bottom of the stone tablet with his hands, revealing a deeper line of inscriptions:
[Dylan Slick is buried here]
“…”
"Boss, let me ask you a question," he paused, "How did I die?"
"Ah?" On the other side, Lin Jun's mind was excitedly describing the bright prospects of the lipid worm breeding farm, and the sound suddenly stopped...
…
A few Pujis grunted and moved the troublesome stone tablet away. A digging Puji that had been on standby nearby immediately swung its mushroom cap and smashed it to pieces with two "clangs".
The whole process went smoothly and everyone tacitly agreed not to mention it again, as if the stone with "Dylan Rests" written on it had never existed.
They came all the way to the sixth floor, and from the sixth floor Dylan experienced the feeling of being carried away, all the way to the crack in the stone fortress.
It was not until Dylan was shivering from the cold and his snot even began to condense into small ice crystals that Lin Jun remembered that this guy did not have enough resistance to the cold.
After thinking about it, Lin Jun simply called out all three of them, since everyone was quite free recently anyway.
Just two minutes later, Louisa's figure was the first to step out gracefully.
Immediately afterwards, Norris also leaned forward cautiously.
The most slow one was Xiao Hei. After Lin Jun repeatedly assured her that Puji would help her look after the house, she hesitantly held her big tail and moved out step by step in an extremely awkward posture.
Ever since her tail was broken once, Xiao Hei has been particularly precious to her. It is no longer safe to put her tail behind her when she goes out, so she usually has to hold it in her arms.
Because she was holding her tail, she could only walk in a half-squatting position, which made Lin Jun feel tired just by looking at her.
Seeing Dylan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Xiao Hei tilted his head in confusion, leaned in and sniffed carefully, and finally confirmed the old acquaintance from the smell.
She stretched out the tip of the tail that she had been holding in her arms in front of Dylan and let him touch it lightly as a greeting.
Louisa took a step forward, her scarlet eyes showing a hint of friendliness after scrutiny. The corners of her lips slightly raised, revealing a few sharp white fangs. She extended her hand to Dylan: "Luisa, a diamond-level vampire. We both serve the boss, so please give us your guidance in the future."
Her handshake was strong and steady, and her attitude was calm. She did not show any contempt for Dylan's aging appearance and weak magical fluctuations - as long as the boss cared about someone, she would show respect.
Although Lin Jun had greeted him in advance, Dylan still felt unreal and dazed when a diamond-level vampire who was over two meters tall and exuded a strong sense of oppression shook hands with him so friendly. He subconsciously exclaimed: "You...you speak the common language so fluently..."
"It's just a job requirement. I used to do some intelligence work." Louisa responded calmly.
Dylan nodded, thinking of Chrollo, who was indeed quite proficient in the common language.
At this time, Norris also hurried forward, stretched out his right hand covered with fine scales and with carefully polished nails, and tried to straighten his back: "My name is Norris! Nice to meet you, senior! Please take care of me in the future!"
Dylan held the hand with inhuman features, feeling the cool touch of the scales. Looking at Norris trying to be friendly, he praised him sincerely, "You speak the common language very well!"
After letting go of his hand, Norris felt as if he had been hit hard. He instantly wilted and lay on the ground, almost crying.
Dylan then remembered that Norris seemed to be a human in the boss's description, but... looking at Norris's scales and claws, is he still a human? !
He thought of Lin Jun's casual "joke" about giving him a few more arms and legs, and he couldn't help but shudder...
It was Lin Jun who comforted Norris and said that she would upgrade him to [Mimicry LV7] later, which helped Dylan resolve the embarrassment.
"By the way, boss, I brought back your fruit!" Dylan finally remembered his business and took out a few red fruits covered with spiral threads from his backpack.
