"Kill a few monsters to change your mood and free your mind. If you really can't learn it, just give up and accept your own shortcomings. Pressure often comes from overestimating yourself."
Janet suppressed her laughter: "Well, I agree~"
How should I put it? Omega was not deliberately being disrespectful, and even the philosophy in his words was worthy of reference, it just sounded a bit weird.
Shanuoya was so angry that she was no longer in the mood to be depressed. She replied expressionlessly: "I really hope you can shut up."
The biggest pressure actually comes from within the team, it’s so frustrating!
Chu Yan was joking and bickering with the taboo sisters, but the two mothers, Evelyn and Tiffany, did not participate.
The two of them are mature enough and beautiful on their own.
However, after they knew about each other's close relationship with their sons, the two mothers never looked at each other directly. When their eyes met, there seemed to be a faint smell of gunpowder.
Chu Yan couldn't change the situation, and it was already a good thing that they didn't fight.
Entering the Tower of Babel, the entrance camp was much more crowded, and it was crowded with adventurers just resting there.
Some adventurers didn't even have a place to sit down. After all, they couldn't block the aisle for others to walk. As a last resort, they could only sit on the ground outside the camp.
They had no injuries on their bodies. They were basically adventurers who came to explore the deeper layers of the map. When they were tired, they came back to the camp to rest for a while.
Some are happy, some are worried, and some new adventurers from outside are envious.
Rookie Adventurer: "The monsters in the depths are getting more dangerous now. We don't dare to get close. I wonder if it's too late to improve our strength now... Why is the Adventurer's Guild here so generous?"
Veteran Adventurer: "Indeed, I don't know if it was Guild Master Zhilan or someone else who came up with this idea, but it actually benefited us adventurers!"
The rookie lamented with tears in his eyes: "I really envy you for being able to earn this money so easily."
The old bird soothed him gently: "It's a little early to be envious now, don't be anxious."
The rookie was surprised: "Oh? Could it be that the senior has some inside information about making money?"
The old bird shook his head: "What I mean is, you don't have to rush. There's no point in rushing! It won't be long before this commission ends, and the funding will probably not be able to keep up."
The new adventurer wanted to curse.
Chu Yan and others passed by and listened to this conversation, sweating on their foreheads.
"Why do the adventurers think it will end soon?" Chu Yan was puzzled and stopped his companions. He listened to the adventurers' chat for a while.
The previous judgment of the veteran adventurer also aroused the curiosity and anxiety of others. No one wanted the guild's welfare mission to end so early.
"What makes you say that this commission is about to end? The remuneration has been paid out regularly to this day, and has never been delayed or in arrears!"
"You came late and didn't notice it. In the early morning, a large-scale adventurer team went deep into the cave. They were obviously going to defeat the monsters."
"Poaching?"
After hearing the news, the adventurers immediately understood the reason.
Everyone who has been in the Tower of Babel area for so long knows that the guild is not releasing the latest map now because it is preparing to rely on those monster strongholds to recover funds.
The adventurers are not stupid. They can see the intention and understand the guild's approach. Otherwise, where would they get so much money to give them?
Although the guild did not insist that it had reserved those monster spots, the adventurers would not touch those places out of conscience.
Now some people have started "poaching", and this trend will spread. Everyone will go to the black market to buy information, and then rush to grab those monster points.
Sooner or later the guild will be unable to pay out money. If you stick to morality, you will suffer losses. Anyway, I have already earned the money after defeating the monsters.
When everyone is robbing together, no one is immoral, everyone is just forced.
Upon learning of this situation, many adventurers' faces tightened and they could no longer sit still.
"While the guild still has money, I have to explore more maps to get rewards."
"I guess in a few days, the adventure group will have to call us back to grab the monster site together."
In just half an hour, more than half of the adventurers had left the crowded and bustling entrance camp and were engaged in the exploration.
Chu Yan looked at the situation, frowned and thought, then decided to ignore it for the time being.
"We will act according to the predetermined plan and do the things at hand first. We will consider this additional situation when we return."
The purpose of a plan is to ensure that you stay on track when unexpected situations occur.
However, the plan can also be fine-tuned.
If you meet adventurers along the way, you can ask them which direction the group is going.

Right now,
In the high-risk monster ruins, a well-equipped team of adventurers gathered here.
Magic roared, swords flashed, and the roars of monsters were deafening. The situation on the front line was extremely intense.
But a complete team can support the rotation arrangement of personnel.
A key member who had just retired to rest could not help but ask Captain Conan:
"Boss, wouldn't it be a waste for us to clear the monsters now? The exploration commissions given by the Adventurer's Guild are easy and the rewards are high."
Taking into account the time, potion consumption, and equipment repair costs of conquering a high-risk monster ruins, the cost may be only slightly higher than the guild's commission.
The advantage of the guild's exploration commissions is that they are easy and risk-free, and this is all specially calculated.
Captain Connan explained:
“There is a noble person who will reimburse the expenses, and there will be additional rewards afterwards. Don’t worry about the reward. You can treat this expedition as a high-value bounty commission.
Besides, if we take the lead here, many adventurers will come to seize the monster points, and we will then go explore the map and get the guild's rewards, which is the same."
The generous reward soothed the morale of many team members. Nothing could be more practical than this.
Thousands of words of melodramatic chicken soup are not as practical as the two words “lots of money”.
At the front line, the team members shouted: "Captain, an unknown monster has appeared, a spirit or soul!"
Captain Conan frowned. The difficulty of this relic was higher than he had imagined. There were even monsters like spiritual souls. This was a bit tricky.
But, they are a professional team!
"Don't panic, just follow the old method. Take out the Holy Word Shield and the corresponding magic scrolls!"
Author's words: I'll finish the update tonight, and then I'll catch up on the extra chapters. I'll almost have it finished. I haven't written for a long time, so I'm a little slow in writing.
It should be sent out tomorrow.
Chapter 3: Undead Monster (k)
The journey is long and cannot be skipped, but with the incidental goal of obtaining information along the way, the process becomes less boring.
From the surface to the deep levels of the Tower of Babel, the information that can be obtained varies greatly.
When Chu Yan asked the surface adventurers about the unusually active adventurer team, the only response he got was basically "I don't know."
When we arrived at the deeper levels and asked a few adventurers, the answers were unusual, "I saw it before, but I don't know now."
The three words "I don't know" seem to run through life and even the whole world...
"An adventure team with unusual activities? You mean the one that's conquering the monster ruins? I saw them heading west, but I don't know where they went, and I didn't dare to follow them and join in the fun."
Chu Yan finally heard some valuable responses from the passing adventurer.
He pressed, "Which position did he turn around at? I'm the delivery man they called from the city. The potion they ordered was wrong, so I have to deliver it quickly."
The passerby adventurer was a little hesitant at first. If he rashly gave directions to others in the Tower of Babel, he might offend them. What if he got into trouble for murder? Wouldn't he be in trouble?
Hearing Chu Yan claiming to be the one delivering medicine, the passerby adventurer's concerns were reduced, and he gave up the line of "I don't know" and said:
"Snowflake Avenue, the turn in the northwest corner... Are you guys delivering medicine? They don't look like good guys."
Snowflake Avenue refers to a main road in the deep map, with intersections radiating in a "M" shape in all directions. Adventurers call it Snowflake Avenue.
Northwest corner... Chu Yan remembered the location and couldn't help but feel curious about what he said. He casually handed over a bottle of intermediate healing potion. The bottle was filled with blood-colored liquid, but it gave people a sense of security when looking at it.
"Do you know that group of people? Why do you seem to have a bad impression of them?"
The passing adventurer did not refuse the bottle of medicine, which was the hard currency in the Tower of Babel, comparable to gold. He said:
"I can't say I know them very well, but they are not a local adventure group. They are sent by a local kingdom. They are quite mature in all aspects...
A while ago, there were reports that information about Monster Relics was being resold on the black market, and even members of the Rat Gang showed up covertly to poach Monster Relics.
These people will make it difficult for everyone to carry out easy commissions!"
The Rat Gang can be said to be a notorious group of people in the Tower of Babel area. They are criminals wanted by the church and a team of old acquaintances who specialize in harming adventurers for a living.
With the involvement of this group, it will definitely not be a good thing.
Considering the little rumor I heard from President Zhilan before, maybe there is some connection.
After saying goodbye to the passing adventurer, Chu Yan continued to inquire several more people, and the information he obtained was almost the same.
Some people didn't pay attention to the members of the Rat Gang, but they found that the local adventure group was doing similar things.
"Yes, there are two 'princess syndrome' adventure groups that are also fighting monsters. They actually started quite early, two weeks ago. At that time, they were only looking for some low- and medium-difficulty monster locations."
"Everyone from the local adventure group is involved? Why?" Chu Yan really couldn't understand.
"Do you remember the time when the Empire blocked the line?" said Adventurer B, a passerby.
447
When we united to hold a meeting, there were a few people who were against us. It was said that they had received money from the empire, and everyone was ostracizing that group of people during this period of time. "
Chu Yan had heard something about it. At that time, the negotiations were almost over, but there were a few people making sarcastic remarks and finding all kinds of faults. Behind them was a hot-tempered dwarf brother. He took a sip of wine and took the lead to rush into the tower.
It is understandable that those stray clowns are causing trouble.
"From what I hear, it seems like a gang-sponsored crime. Or has the long-standing conflict erupted during this guild welfare period?"
Chu Yan looked at his companions and felt a little pain in his head.
Janet comforted him, "This is normal, isn't it? Didn't the young lord also work hard for a long time to overcome all difficulties in order to gain a foothold in Paradise City?"
That's true. There are so many forces on the Tower of Babel side, so it's normal to have such conflicts. We can't expect everything to go smoothly.
Xia Nuoya looked at Janet in disbelief and asked, "Why didn't you use pressure phrases when you comforted Chu Yan?"
Omega rationally analyzed the rumors and information he had gathered along the way, summarizing them in his mind.
I originally thought that there was only a certain high-risk monster ruins being conquered, but now it seems like several places are being conquered at the same time?
She pondered:
"Are these 'minorities' colluding together, or is there someone who has united them and are actually 'poaching' at the same time, not wanting to leave funds for the guild?"
It seems that this is no longer important. The other party has already implemented it. There is no point in considering the other party's motives. The key is what choice you make.
The group continued on their journey. As Chu Yan walked, he suddenly said:
"I was wondering if we could treat these people as monsters in the monster ruins and eliminate them together."
Originally, Chu Yan would still hesitate for a while, wondering which place to go and which not to go to in order to save time. Now someone helped him make the choice, which might not be a bad thing.
Tiffany was very perceptive, and she warned: "There is a sound of fighting ahead, someone is using spiritual protection magic."
Chu Yan's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Let's go and see what's going on."
*
"Captain Connan, this is bad, our priest is under mind control!"
"Captain, we're running out of magic scrolls. Something's wrong!"
Listening to the news from the members, Captain Kangnan's face became serious, his brows furrowed, and he was thinking about countermeasures.
The "Shield of Holy Words" is their treasure for dealing with spiritual and soul magic. The holy words contained in it not only provide a special enchantment for the shield, but also enable the person behind the shield to resist mental attacks.
This treasure was invincible in the past, but it fails here from time to time...
Suddenly, several team members were controlled and slapped their teammates unexpectedly.
But this is not the key point. The key lies in this monster ruins.
They had already dealt with two elite monsters, each of which they had killed twice, but they always resurrected.
