Mu Qingxue figured out the reason almost instantly.
"Is it dangerous there?"
"Yes."
"How dangerous can it be in a beginner dungeon?" Mu Qingxue narrowed her eyes. "Unless the dungeon boss has some kind of ability that can disable the near-death teleportation mechanism..."
After hearing this, Hua Bo sighed and then said with a wry smile, "Don't guess anymore."
This is pretty much the answer, but it's also within expectations and not hard to guess.
Mu Qingxue didn't say anything more and sat down to rest. Hua Bo breathed a sigh of relief. If Mu Qingxue had asked a few more questions, he probably would have guessed everything.
...
Rest time is simply a time to recover stamina and mana.
The professionals gathered in twos and threes and quickly became acquainted.
"Hey...look over there."
Fu Chen pointed to Mu Qingxue, who was alone, and asked, "Do you know her?"
Several people shook their heads, indicating that they did not recognize the person.
"You don't recognize any of them?" Fu Chen was somewhat surprised. "You don't even know her name?"
"I don't know."
"I've never seen it before."
One of them noticed Fu Chen's thoughts and glanced at him, "You're not thinking of hitting on him, are you?"
“How can you call that flirting!” Fu Chen cleared his throat, pretending to be righteous. “I’m trying to help her fit in! Look at her, she doesn’t know anyone, sitting there all alone, how pitiful!”
After hearing this, everyone turned to look at Mu Qingxue.
At this moment, Mu Qingxue sat alone to the side, lifting the hem of her long purple robe and staring intently at the staff in her hand.
It's true that I was sitting alone.
Unfortunately, they didn't notice at all.
Such a stunningly beautiful woman sat to the side.
To be honest, among these twenty-odd roughnecks, quite a few had ulterior motives.
You can walk over, or people simply ignore you.
Or, those starry eyes look over, so cold it's like being naked in the dead of winter, freezing you so much you can't even speak.
After several attempts, all efforts were in vain.
"Dude, I advise you to give up on her."
Zhu Boxuan, who had been listening silently for a while, suddenly spoke up.
"Huh?" Fu Chen was taken aback. "You've taken a liking to it?"
"I wouldn't dare!" Zhu Boxuan smiled. "However, if you trust my judgment, I'd like to say a few words."
"See the robe she's wearing? To my eyes, it's at least a C-grade item."
"As for the staff in her hand, it looks pretty much the same."
Only then did everyone notice that the wooden staff in Mu Qingxue's hand was exceptionally smooth, reflecting the sunlight shining on it in a variety of colors.
"However, that's not the point."
Seeing the crowd gathering around, Zhu Boxuan lowered his voice and said to them:
"Did you see that? The handkerchief she used to wipe her hands just now was embroidered with holy symbols, which means it was contaminated with holy water. It can break low-level curses, enhance perception, and even give her a small amount of holy resistance."
Fu Chen was taken aback for a moment, "I've heard of it, it's called... 'Saint-Bressin'? That stuff isn't cheap!"
"Pretty much." Zhu Boxuan chuckled. "Judging from her words and actions, I'd bet you all that she comes from a very prestigious family!"
"Having provoked them, there's definitely going to be a lot of trouble..."
Only then did everyone understand what Zhu Boxuan had just said. If Mu Qingxue really came from a prestigious family, then she was indeed a girl not to be trifled with.
The term "prestigious family" implies at least several high-level professionals and considerable wealth. There are bound to be many rules and regulations. If you were to actually date a girl of that caliber, the daily surveillance and background checks would be incredibly annoying.
At this moment, Mu Qingxue turned her head slightly and glanced in this direction.
"Oh my god, did she hear us talking?"
"Nonsense, we're speaking so softly, and we're still more than ten meters away!"
"However, she is really beautiful... She is just as beautiful as Ye Qianyu."
"You're so useless, all you know is Ye Qianyu."
"cut!"
If Ye Qianyu is a bright peony in the Jiangdong School Alliance, then Mu Qingxue in front of us is like a snow lotus from the Tianshan Mountains.
"Ye Qianyu..." Zhu Boxuan thought for a moment, scratched his head, "My personal aesthetic preference leans a bit towards Ye Qianyu."
Just then.
Sizzle————
Oh my god!
Zhu Boxuan sprang up from the ground as if he'd been bitten on the butt by a dog.
The commotion drew the attention of the twenty-odd people resting there.
Hua Bo glanced at Zhu Boxuan and asked, "Did someone step on your tail?"
Zhu Boxuan grinned, his upper and lower teeth trembling uncontrollably.
His expression was somewhat unnatural, and he forced a dry laugh, saying, "My leg... my leg cramped up."
"cut!"
The tense nerves of everyone immediately relaxed.
Then, Zhu Boxuan sat down.
"You, a heavily armored knight, managed to sit so long that your legs cramped up?"
Fu Chen looked at him suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"
"Stop asking!"
Zhu Boxuan inwardly groaned; his buttocks were tingling from the electric shock, clearly indicating that Mu Qingxue had overheard them gossiping about him behind his back.
One more thing, the next spell might just hit him somewhere.
Just then.
He suddenly frowned, then lay down on the ground, turned his head to the side, and pressed one ear against the ground.
At the same time, the two hunters in the team made the same move as Zhu Boxuan almost simultaneously.
Something's coming!
Hua Bo turned his head instantly, "A person?"
"It's a monster!"
Footsteps can reveal a lot of information, such as location and the individual.
Hua Bo frowned, and all the professionals stood up, ready for battle.
"Each squad, arrange your positions!"
Everyone sprang into action.
"Where is the monster?"
The hunters' faces were solemn.
Zhu Boxuan took a deep breath, "From all directions!"
Rumble— Rumble—
Everyone's expression changed instantly.
The next second, a dark green mud pillar burst through the ground and gushed out!
"Damn it, it's that black mud again!"
"Be careful and take cover!"
Before the gunner captain could finish speaking, he saw Hua Bo point at him, and almost instantly a giant magical hammer appeared in front of him.
Clang!
The gunnery division captain was sent flying a great distance!
A tree trunk as thick as an arm flew straight out, grazing his face!
If it had been any later, his body would definitely have been pierced by this tree trunk that flew out of nowhere!
"Brother Hua, thank you!"
"Prepare for the enemy!"
Hua Bo gritted his teeth, his face more solemn than ever before.
"They're here!"
The words had barely left his mouth.
"roar!!!!!!!!"
A deafening roar came from the forest.
Zhu Boxuan held a long sword, his face somewhat pale.
Several monsters emerged from the woods, followed by a dozen or so, eventually multiplying to over a hundred.
