Chapter 191 The Unlucky Guy Who Was Caught to Take the Blame
Luluwo announced that the pirated Furnace Knight in front of them was the biggest surprise that the Cangyin Dungeon had brought them.
No, it's fright.
This kind of thing, this kind of thing.
“Puff——”
Luluwo was the first one who couldn't hold back. Her saliva almost spurted out, and a smile instantly appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"What the hell is this? Oh my god, how can it be so ugly and still look similar at the same time!"
She laughed so loudly that she looked extremely rude, and in order to appear polite, she covered her mouth.
"Hahahaha." Then the wild laughter turned into a muffled laugh.
With her good example, the new strategy group also started laughing, and the Cangyin Dungeon suddenly became a sea of joy.
The big toad that imitated the curse frog and the skeleton monster in the front and the vegetative man couldn't make them laugh, but this pseudo-Furnace Knight was really funny.
Being too ugly is one thing, but another thing that makes people laugh is that every detail about this guy is full of "stereotypes".
The axe-shaped helmet of the Crucible Knight has turned into an axe that wraps the entire head. The style of the armor is also a rough combination of polygons, and the delicate patterns have turned into the veins of leaves. Rather than calling it a Crucible Knight, it is better to call it a vegetable with an axe on its head.
It feels like the creator simply heard someone describe the general appearance of the Crucible Knight and then created it based on his imagination.
Just like when Gong Qiying was a child, when he heard people talking about the three admirals of the navy, he really imagined Kizaru as a yellow monkey. It was not until he grew up that he realized that the Kizaru he imagined should be called the Passionate Golden Lion.
The Cangyin Dungeon is so full of life!
Probably stimulated by the laughter, the Pseudo-Furnace Knight rushed over brandishing a greatsword, running quite well. Judging from his fighting ability, he was at least an elite monster - an elite monster in the general sense, which could not be compared with Sean.
According to Sean's rating standards, ordinary elite monsters are around D level. This level of battle can be over in a moment in front of the new strategy team.
“Bang!”
The Pseudo-Furnace Knight fell heavily to the ground, and the vines on its body were still struggling to reassemble its severed legs, but as a mid-level fire magic hit it, flames ignited and it began to struggle violently.
"It's quite burn-resistant."
If one flame is not enough, then two, three, and eventually it will be burned to ashes.
Compared to the previous one, this monster is indeed quite powerful, and it is estimated that it can trap quite a few people. But what's the point of trapping people here! ?
Could it be that the powerful adventurers who hoped to defeat it went through so much trouble to enter the valley just to find the dryads to extract juice for fertilizer?
Luluwo rubbed his brows and sighed. If the design of the Sean Dungeon was 90 points, then the Cangyin Dungeon would be a "flawless work" of 10 points.
“Is it really necessary to release a guide for this dungeon?” She muttered to herself. “If we leave it alone, I’m afraid no one will come here in two years.”
She felt that the two years she had mentioned was still too conservative. Charon even said that they could make a name for themselves here. Now Luluvo was beginning to doubt the Count's vision.
But even though she disliked it, as a veteran dungeon speedrunning expert (self-proclaimed), she noticed some useful details even if she didn't pay special attention.
The fog gate that appears when fighting elite or boss monsters is a specialty of the Senn dungeon. Other dungeons either do not have it or use barriers or special terrain instead.
There are no obstacles on the road to the valley, which means that people can easily lure this fake Furnace Knight out and then sneak into the valley.
If I think about it further, maybe I can look for traps in the swamp that can trap monsters, so as to buy more time for exploration.
"I am really a genius." Luluwo smiled confidently and walked into the valley.
The scenery in front of them suddenly became clear, the air suddenly became fresh, and a emerald green forest appeared in front of everyone, with green grass and flowers everywhere, and the bright sunshine evenly projected on every plant.
"No wonder people in the city miss the old Cangyin Underground City."
In a professional spirit, the new strategy team searched inside, trying to see if this was a wolf in sheep's clothing and whether there were any traps hidden under the beautiful scenery.
The result was completely different from what they had guessed. There were indeed monsters here, but the style was very different from the previous ones. They changed from big toads to tree elves that looked like big trees, palm-sized flying forest elves that looked like dancing, cabbages with fat dog heads, and birds that would explode fireworks when they died.
Luluwo didn't know what to say. The scene before her could only appear in fairy tales.
Then she fell into deep thought, and the more she thought, the more she wanted to complain.
Since the scenery is so beautiful, why don’t you just concentrate on art? There will always be people who come in just to see the scenery!
Who are you trying to disgust by building a swamp in front?
If this dungeon has a conscious existence, Luluwo would really like to pull it out and question it. Why does it imitate the Sion dungeon? Isn't it better to stick to its own way?
But another question arises: why did the Cangyin Dungeon change?
People have never figured out how the dungeon works, but there is a theory that has been supported by many people: external stimuli will cause the dungeon to respond.
The most intuitive evidence is "runaway". If we summarize the runaway incidents in underground cities in history, it is not difficult to find that those underground cities were all stimulated by external factors.
If we use this theory to speculate about the Cangyin Dungeon.
Is it because the number of people entering the dungeon has dropped dramatically?
To put it another way, it's because the Sion Dungeon stole its "customers"?
Luluwo suddenly shook her head, patted her cheek and said, "Why are you thinking about these things? I'm not a scholar."
"Is it time to rest? Everyone needs to work hard these days."
She looked outside the valley, intending to make a strategy for this place as quickly as possible. With their experience in the Fran Fortress, it would not be difficult for them to deal with this "skin-changing monster".
As for how many days they will stay here, Count Charon said that they will use magic to notify them after they find any trace of the demons, and they will go back only then.
No matter what, the new strategy group are all allies of the Fran Guards, and since the other side is currently in a relatively weak situation, Luluwo wants to take better care of them when fighting the demons.
She bent down and picked a wild flower. The faint fragrance lingered around her. The feeling of being close to nature was comfortable.
So she had to complain again.
"Why add manure outside such a beautiful scenery? I always think Cangyin Underground City is stupid."
——————————
"I'm not stupid!"
In the Cangyin Underground City, in the city lord's room, a little man who was only a dozen centimeters tall and had transparent wings on his back shouted in frustration.
She was so angry that her delicate facial features were twisted into a mess. At least she was a master of facial expressions.
This is the lord of Cangyin Dungeon, named Leileniye.
But for now, she prefers her original name - Henesse.
A month or two ago, she, the daughter of a noble family, ran away from home with her bodyguard Fili to go out and play, and ended up becoming the first victims after the incident in the Sean dungeon.
After experiencing a hellish ordeal, she and Fili were successfully sent back to the resurrection house. Since then, she has developed a psychological trauma towards the Sean Dungeon and feels scared whenever the name is mentioned.
She originally wanted to issue a bounty after returning home to recruit warriors to clear the Senn dungeon.
As a result, he was put in solitary confinement by his furious parents as soon as he got home, and there was no way he could even think about issuing a reward.
After living a boring life at home for a long time, one day when she woke up, her life had changed dramatically.
Heinis suddenly became the lord of Cangyin Dungeon, Leleni!
She was really scared in the first few days. No, until now she is still wrapped in great anxiety.
For some unknown reason, the previous city lord here suddenly lost his mind, and she was unlucky enough to be caught and taken the blame.
Unable to leave the dungeon, unable to communicate with the outside world, unable to see my parents and Fili again
She didn't even have a way of knowing her family's reaction after she disappeared!
She thought about seeking help, but every time she wanted to confess her identity to the adventurers entering the dungeon, she felt inexplicably fearful, as if as long as she took the initiative to expose her identity, she would face a terrible end.
The feeling of fear enveloped her, and the pressure from her mental strength made her tremble. She had little mental strength left in this dungeon. If she reached the bottom, she would die!
It took Hainess several days to figure out how to operate the dungeon lord's system, and she also saw that the flow of people in Cangyin Dungeon was constantly decreasing.
Must gain mental strength!
But how can we obtain a large amount of mental power?
In desperation, she thought of the Thane Dungeon.
If I imitate its design, I should be able to gain a lot of spiritual power, right?
But she had only seen the monsters and terrain of Sean. This shallow knowledge could not support her to make something exactly the same. She could only select some usable monsters and buildings left by the previous city lord and stitch them together.
She had seen the skeleton monster and the big iron ball with her own eyes, but she had only heard of the curse frog, furnace knight, etc. from adventurers, so she used a big toad to imitate the curse frog and a bunch of vine monsters to imitate the furnace knight, creating something abstract.
It turned out that the traps she had set up in imitation of the ones in the Senn dungeon were indeed useful. Her mental strength surged in the first few days, and she thought she could keep it up forever.
However, on the fourth day, the flow of people dropped sharply.
If life is about ups and downs, then hers is about ups and downs and there is no sign of improvement so far.
I am going to die, die in this unknown corner. If I can recycle all these terrains into spiritual power and leave only a little space, I may be able to maintain my survival for a while, but what is the difference between that and death?
To make matters worse, not long ago, a group of weird people who were dead but could not emit any spiritual power came to the door.
"We give you our spiritual power, and you help us make props."
Heinis still remembered that it was a "person" with a frog head who was talking to himself in the dungeon, but she was very aware that the person was talking to her.
She was very scared because these strange-looking people looked exactly like the demons in the legend.
The demons threatened her that if she didn't cooperate, they would come in and cause trouble every day, increasing her mental energy expenditure and hastening her death!
Heinis didn't dare to reply at that time. The other party left after saying "We will come again".
From that day on, her mind became a mess. She was in a daze all day long and wanted to give up thinking. Her condition was very similar to that of Sean's predecessor Godwin, as if she had Alzheimer's disease.
It was not until today, when she sensed the powerful mental power of Luluwo and others breaking in, that Heinis regained consciousness.
And when she was awake, nightmares also came to her.
The demons are coming again.
