After quitting the team, the adventurers regretted it

Looking at Haibi's deep crimson-purple pupils, a chill crawled up her trouser legs like a poisonous snake, and Maiev couldn't help but shiver.

Rather than a human, this little girl gave him the feeling of a terrifying monster.

"Haha, of course it's yours. I'm worried that someone else might pick it up, so I'm here to help look after it. I'm going to the southern battlefield to check out the battle situation. Everyone, leave first."

Maiev spread her wings and flew away.

After a brief communication, Linda understood the whole story.

"This woman turned out to be the daughter of [Skeleton] Sarel, one of the twelve followers of the demon clan. No wonder she has such a precious thing."

Linda's eyes lit up and she took the small crystal box without hesitation.

Fragments of the tear of life are good things. Putting them in your backpack is equivalent to half a life.

"I'll go to other battlefields too."

Linda hugged Haibi and disappeared in a flash.

Looking at the backs of the two, Wogang murmured, "I really want to be promoted to the Light Rank."

If Linda hadn't appeared in time, a fierce battle would probably have broken out.

"So, let's join forces?" Luo Manli said with a smile, "If Linda and that little guy enter the Ice Abyss, our situation will be dangerous."

"reject."

Wogang spread his wings and flew into the sky.

Luo Manli glared angrily.

"What a stupid Frostwolf!"

An hour later, the battle in the 20th level of the Great Secret Realm came to an end.

The two sides were originally evenly matched, but with the appearance of a certain person and a small light-level monster, the battle situation suddenly became one-sided.

When Haibi slapped him, a mass of blood and flesh fell from the air.

Most demons leave their lives on the 20th floor.

During the head count, the adventurers gathered together.

"Captain Luanweihua, you have done a great job. I will report this achievement to the capital truthfully."

A knight wearing a golden cloak and black armor said solemnly:
"Monthly Ranking 75, Witch of the Hundred Faces.

Monthly ranking 77, Sunny.

Their bounty is 10 purple gold coins each.

It will be distributed to you through the Adventure Guild within 7 days.

These two demons committed many evil things, and many adventurers died at their hands.

Linda, you have done a great job!

I, the 197th Knights of Judgment, Captain Zedd, pay my respects to you."

Zed took off his black armor helmet and bowed to Linda.

The group of black-armored knights behind them all bent down.

"I just did what I had to do."

Linda sighed inwardly and said lightly.

The surviving adventurers looked at the Luanweihua in a different light.

This team's performance in battle far exceeded that of the ordinary Chaoyang class.

It is hard for them to imagine how blind those newspapers must be to write a report that the Luanwei Flower cannot get over a mountain.

Wogang is ready to give it a try.

Linda is now qualified to fight him.

But Haibi glared at everyone around him fiercely, and Wogang didn't dare to get too close to Linda.

Everyone was curious about the little guy's origins.

Without her, today's battle would have been difficult.

Linda noticed that everyone was looking at Haibi and knew she had to explain.

"Yes, it was Luanweihua who passed the trial in the ancient city of Avis."

There is nothing to hide about this. The level has increased so much that people have already been suspicious.

"Captain Linda, congratulations!"

"Can you tell me what the rewards for the trial are?"

"The Luanweihua Adventure Team has unlimited potential."

Everyone was envious.

"I'm sorry I can't tell you the specific reward, but let's put it this way, Haibi might be one of the rewards."

Linda touched Haibi's head, and the little guy squinted his eyes comfortably.

"award?"

Captain Zedd was confused: "Is she a magic tool or a human?"

"I am not sure as well."

Linda shook her head.

He always remained wary of Haibi.

Haibi couldn't understand human language and sometimes misjudged his orders, almost killing adventurers while chasing the demons.

Like a wild animal cub that acts on instinct without any moral or legal constraints.

Haibi didn't show his fangs to him now, but what about in the future? Strawberry cake has limited temptation for children. Except for a few exceptions, most adventurers will lose interest in this high-calorie sweet food when they grow up.

Everyone thought that Linda was extremely happy as he had picked up a miraculous little monster.

Only Linda's family knows their own affairs.

Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other.

Maybe Haibi is a big trouble.

Seeing Haibi blinking his big eyes and smiling in his arms, rubbing his fair face against his chest, Linda scratched his head and sighed again.

The guilt would be too great if I just threw it away.

After spending an hour harvesting the horns from the demon corpses, Linda led the team back to Baige City.

He was not in a hurry to offer sacrifice, as his first priority was to find out Haibi's identity.

Whether the snake is poisonous or not is the key to Linda's decision on whether to adopt it.

He prepared a separate room for Haibi, forbidding anyone to approach, and he was the only one who delivered three meals a day to her.

The first day was normal.

The next day, Haibi was annoyed that Linda didn't let her go out, so she smashed the room and almost demolished Luanweihua's villa.

Linda used double shields before he dared to approach Haibi who was slapping him with golden palms.

Fortunately, Haibi was just a child throwing a tantrum. After being scolded by Linda, he returned to his room feeling aggrieved.

In order to avoid hurting others, Linda temporarily rented a villa and lived alone with Haibi, silently waiting for the arrival of the ancient historian.

Anna helped find this person, who was from the Michele family in the royal capital, which is also Anna's family.

On the 15th day, the other party arrived riding a fiery red griffin.

"Level 55 legendary monster, the flaming griffin!"

Linda politely invited the old man to the villa.

In the living room, he was holding Haby, and sitting on the sofa opposite him was an ancient historian named Angus.

The man had white hair, wore an elegant scholar's robe, and black-framed glasses, and he exuded a strong scholarly air.

Angus took out a magnifying glass and carefully examined the sarcophagus brought out from the ancient city of Avis. He looked up at Haibi from time to time, muttering something, and his expression became more and more solemn.

Linda was a little nervous.

"Ugh"

"Old sir, is the sea bigger than her?"

"Nothing, I just feel chest tightness."

"."

Linda's heart was at ease again. After a while, Angus sat back on the sofa, drank a sip of water, and said to himself: "Everything is right, but there is one thing missing."

"what?"

"Logically, she should have a gold lock around her neck."

"You mean this?"

Linda took out a half-moon shaped golden lock from the space ring.

"Yes, that's it!" Angus slapped his thigh and stood up excitedly.

"What do you mean? Please stop keeping me in suspense."

"Haha, don't be impatient, Captain Linda. I have to congratulate you in advance. You are so lucky."

Angus laughed, and when he looked at Haibi, his eyes became playful.

"Da da!" Haibi puffed up his cheeks and a golden slap appeared in the air.

Linda quickly tried to stop him and gave Hebi a lollipop, which finally appeased him.

Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Linda said solemnly: "Old sir, what is Haibi's origin?"

"Haha, Captain Linda, do you know what this golden lock is?" Angus asked instead of answering.

Linda was speechless. If I knew, what would I ask you to do?
Inviting Angus to come to White Dove City was not free, and it cost him a full 10,000 purple gold coins. It also shows from the side that Anna's status in the family is not very good.

"Captain Linda, please don't be anxious. This is the first time I've seen Princess Avis alive and well. I was frightened."

Angus sighed: "The secret realm is really a magical place. It allows people who lived thousands of years ago to appear in the present era."

"Princess Avis?"

Linda raised her eyebrows.

"Yes. The golden lock on Miss Hebi's neck is called the 'Lock of Destiny'.

Thousands of years ago in the Avis Dynasty, only the bravest snake warriors could obtain the key from her mother and open this lock.

The person who opens the lock will become the destined person of Princess Avis. This lock can be regarded as one of the great magic crystals of the Kingdom of Avis, allowing the most powerful warriors to combine with the descendants of the royal family, ensuring that the royal family will always be strong.

Furthermore, the golden lock can suppress the snake people's sexual desire and only affect the destined person."

Angus said with a half-smile: "Captain Linda, if you don't have a pledger, you can consider Miss Haibi."

"This"

Linda was stunned.

He pulled the Avis badge from his pocket.

After opening the golden lock on Haibi's neck, the magic of this thing completely disappeared and it turned into a broken stone.

Now it seems that the Avis badge is the key to unlocking the lock of destiny!
That's why Haibi was unusually intimate with me, slapping others with his golden palm but not himself.

All of this is because I am the "destined person".

"No, I think that in Haibi's eyes, I am more like her mother than the 'destined one'? It's a kind of familial dependence."

Angus laughed, “That’s because Miss Haibi is still young. When she sheds her skin three times and becomes a young girl, she will develop feelings for you.

You will have a hard time then.

Ordinary people simply cannot withstand the 'death entanglement' of the snake people. This race is extremely crazy in order to give birth to excellent offspring.

According to the records in ancient books, during the mature stage, 24 hours of the 20 hours a day are spent
Ahem, you know. "

"Ah? This is too outrageous."

Linda looked down at Haibi. The little guy blinked his eyes innocently and snuggled in his arms, acting like a pure elf.

"I think Haibi will be a reserved, polite, and well-behaved child when he grows up."

“No, no, no, that’s just because Miss Haibi hasn’t shed her skin yet.

Have you ever seen an adventurer who has a treasure chest in front of him but doesn’t want to open it?

Every year, more adventurers are eaten by treasure chest monsters than those killed by horse-drawn carriages.

When instinct strikes, reason cannot be suppressed."

Angus observed Haibi with interest and said, “But your case is rather special. I have never seen in ancient books a precedent of a foreigner opening a golden lock.

Miss Haibi's dependence on you is extraordinary. Theoretically, she is too young to understand things now, and the effect of the chain of destiny will not take effect until she sheds her skin at least once.

The only explanation is that even without the Destiny Chain, you are still Miss Hebi's destined person."

"I see."

Linda believed Angus's words. After coming to the other world, he has always been popular with beautiful girls. It is natural that he is liked by beautiful young snake girls.

At this time, Angus changed the subject and said seriously, "Avis snakemen have to shed their skin three times before they reach adulthood. Each shed is extremely difficult, especially the last one, which is a life-or-death struggle. With Miss Haibi's current condition, if no one teaches her, she will definitely die in the last shed."

"What should I do then?" Linda's heart sank.

"Simple. I happen to have a swordsman friend who is good at Avis fighting skills.

As for me, I am proficient in the language of Avis and can guide her to learn the Imperial language.

If Captain Linda is willing, can Miss Haibi take me as her teacher? "

Angus stood up and said righteously: "I won't take a penny of the appraisal fee of 100,000 purple gold coins.

Captain Linda, please accept my advice!

Only by coming to me can Miss Haibi become a qualified Princess of Avis."

"Wow! Wow!"

Haiby felt uneasy and hugged Linda's neck, looking pitiful, like a calf that knew it was going to be sold.

"Let me think about it."

Linda looked reluctant.

He first went back to the Luanweihua Villa to find Anna to confirm Angus's background.

I felt a little relieved when I learned that Angus was a highly respected scholar who loved to study ancient history all his life.

Assuming Angus didn't lie to him
Letting Haibi study with Angus is the only way to survive.

I don't know the Avis language, and I can't teach Haibi fighting skills.

Having bangs around would mean ruining her future.

Back in the living room, Linda bowed solemnly to Angus.

"Please teach Haibi."

"Hahaha, this is what I've been waiting for."

Angus helped Linda up with surprise, rubbed his white beard, and said happily: "It is the honor of my life to teach a princess personally. Captain Linda, don't worry, I will do my best to make Miss Haibi the best princess in the history of the Avis Dynasty."

"However, Haibi is a Light Rank."

"Don't worry about that. In my early years, I was a famous adventurer in the capital. Even though I'm retired and my body is not so good, I still have level 58 magic power. The swordsman I mentioned who is good at Avis's fighting skills is a level 77 Heavenly Rank Adventurer."

Angus laughed.

Linda was relieved. Those who were willing to be disciples of the Heavenly Sword Master could line up and circle the White Pigeon City three times.

Angus took the sleeping Haibi from his hands and said, "While Miss Haibi is asleep, I will return to the capital without further delay."

"it is good."

Linda looked at Haibi's sleeping face reluctantly.

When it's around, I worry it's a monster, but when it's gone, I feel uncomfortable.

That afternoon, he saw Angus and Haiby off.

One day in the future, we will definitely meet in the royal capital.

Linda thought silently that by then, Haibi might have grown into a stunningly beautiful girl.

Since the little guy left, Linda's life entered a brief period of calm.

On the third day, Wang Du delivered the bounties for "Bai Mian" and "Sani", a total of 20 purple gold coins, and Luanweihua became rich instantly.

Linda originally planned to go to Bingyuan immediately, but after thinking about it, Luanweihua's strength seemed to be able to roam freely in the Jiuchongshan area. He had the skill [Blessing of the World Tree Goddess], which increased his luck, so he had to make good use of it.

Just like that, before we knew it, a year had passed.

When I came to my senses, it was already spring.

(ps: Starting tomorrow, the plot rhythm will be accelerated and we will go straight to the main storyline!) (End of this chapter)
