After leaving the team, the adventurers regretted it

Chapter 223 Linda's response to Aiko, the power behind Lulu

Echo's voice was very soft.

But it was like a bolt from the blue to everyone's ears.

The room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Linda and the others were all stunned.

This feels unlikely.

After all, Echo has repeatedly stated in public that he only regards Linda as a good friend.

Leah also asked Echo what he thought of Linda, and Echo replied that they were just ordinary old teammates.

"You, what are you talking about!" Leah was stunned. "You must be lying, right? If you like Linda, why didn't you say a word when I kicked him?"

Lulu looked alert and grabbed Linda's hand in protest.

Linda...was the most surprised.

He didn't think that Aiko's attitude towards him was special. They hadn't touched each other's hands for three years.

You know, every man has this special ability: the ability to sense whether girls like him or not. When you have the thought of "does she like me?", nine times out of ten it is accurate.

But so far, Linda has not felt a similar intuition from anyone other than his own teammates.

Especially Aiko, the least likely!

"It's true, I didn't lie to you!"

Echo's face turned as red as a monkey's butt.

On the one hand, there was the shame of being executed in public, and on the other hand, Echo was worried that this "lie" would be discovered, so she had to exaggerate the description of this relationship so that Linda and the others would believe it.

"Before Linda left the team, I didn't realize it, but it was only after Linda left that I understood it!"

Ai Ke argued: "Look, my cooking skills are so good, I actually practiced them all for Linda!"

"I put the pollen of spring sunflower in the chicken soup just to improve my relationship with Linda, but you guys blame me. So sad!"

Aiko lowered her head and pretended to cry again. But somehow, the tears in her eyes flowed down without her having to think about the sad things.

Leah was the first to believe it, and she stammered, "You...you...you can't do this. You are a member of the Xueyan team, and the captain forbids you to have a relationship."

You are too nosy! ?

Aiko scolded Leah in his heart for being a loser. He couldn't do it himself but wanted to hold others back.

Lulu said: "I refuse."

Aiko:?

Who asked you?

It’s just a tail with multiple ways to play, what can that do?

Lulu's face was cold: "Linda doesn't have the energy to deal with women, all his energy is focused on adventures."

That's fart.

Aiko was indignant in his heart. Looking at the big white silk stockings of this lady, Linda would be envious. How could someone not be interested in women and only want to take risks?

Linda's huge holy sword means that she is the most popular womanizer. When Linda becomes her slave, she will probably beg six or seven times a night and will not let her master sleep.

But Linda's voice broke Echo's fantasy.

"Lulu is right."

Linda said slowly: "The Demon King is about to break the seal, and my sister has become a lackey of the demon clan. With the enemy at hand, I have no time to focus on other things."

"Aiko, I know you are a good person. I hope you can focus on the right path and help Xueyan wholeheartedly in the future."

After hearing this, Aiko's heart skipped a beat: What does it mean, her "confession" was rejected by Linda?

Although it was a false 'confession', Linda responded with her heart, which was real.

In other words, even if Aiko confessed sincerely, she would still be rejected by Linda!

Cricket Linda actually rejected her!

Echo's face was as white as snow.

As a talented mage, she had never suffered such a tragic failure in her life.

She said unwillingly: "Okay, I know you are now thinking about the adventure, so let me ask you, what will happen after the adventure is over? After you have dealt with the Demon King and Lin Xi, you should find your own [Oath Keeper], right?"

Linda thought about it and nodded: "Yes."

Echo said: "At that time, I can reluctantly be your pledge."

This made Leah on the side stunned again.

Linda shook her head: "The Oath-takers usually look for them in their own team. There is no one more reassuring than the companions who have been through life and death together."

Aiko: ...

It made her want to lower her status and join Luanweihua!

"But I suggest that you don't limit yourself to your own team." Leah said in one breath after holding it in for a long time.

Linda wondered, “Why?”

"Because... there might be better or more powerful people out there..." Leah didn't know what she was saying, she was just talking nonsense.

Looking at Leah, Linda suddenly remembered something: "When I was 'poisoned', it seemed..."

If Aiko and Lulu hadn't arrived on the way, the current situation might have been that Leah would have pulled Xueyan's people over and forced him to take responsibility in a huge manner.

Leah's ears turned red, and she said stubbornly, "Don't think too much. Nothing happened."

Linda breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."

It was as if I had avoided some trouble and I felt relieved instantly.

When Leah saw Linda's look, she became inexplicably angry.

She was made like a piece of taffy, and you were afraid your feet would get stuck if you stepped on her.

No one asked whether Echo was injured. Even Leah, who stood on Echo's side, felt that Echo had deserved it.

Linda only treated her as an ordinary teammate, but she actually wanted to use such a treacherous method to win Linda's favor.

What's the difference between this and those lowly elves in the tavern who are trying to take customers' money?

Leah crossed her arms over her chest and acted like a captain: "Aiko, you should apologize quickly. If this matter is reported to the law enforcement bureau, you will be arrested for several months, which will delay the progress of Xueyan's strategy."

This is a very sophisticated statement, almost squeezing out Leah's wisdom to the extreme. Leah seems to be threatening Echo, but in fact she is talking to Linda: Don't let the law enforcement bureau arrest Echo, Xueyan still has to conquer the World Tree.

After Linda knew Aiko's reason, she was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

I saw this beautiful blonde wizard wiping her tears pitifully, with a delicate look as if she knew she was making a mistake and was reflecting on it.

"For the sake of our old teammates, we can let bygones be bygones for what happened today, but Aiko, I hope you can behave yourself in the future. Stop thinking of these crooked ideas, assist Xueyan well, and fulfill your duties as an adventurer."

Linda said with a straight face and serious tone.

Aiko hung his head and hummed weakly.

The chicken soup plan was a complete failure.

She should have won and ascended to the top, but instead she fell to the bottom and became the biggest loser!

Even Leah made progress, and Krona was forgiven by Linda, but her favorability not only did not increase, but decreased instead.

How could Ai Ke be willing to be defeated like this?

Linda asked her to be an honest adventurer, but she did the opposite and started planning her next plan to capture Linda.

With the experience she learned from the Sese picture album, she could judge whether this was a first-hand item based on the posture of Linda's holy sword. The answer was obviously "yes"!

This shows that Lulu is only a small step ahead and the gap is not so big that it cannot be crossed.

Aiko secretly made up her mind that next time, she would definitely overtake on the curve and step on both Lulu and Leah!

...

After Xueyan and the other person left, only Linda and Lulu were left in the room.

"The guests have almost all left, right? I need to clean up..."

Before he could finish his words and was about to take a step, Linda's wrist was grabbed.

I turned around in surprise, and the person who came to me was a girl with short light blue hair and her feet crossed...

Something soft blocked Linda's mouth.

Linda: “!!!”

Lulu had a trace of uneasiness on her face, and her hands tightly grasped Linda's back.

After a while, they separated, breathing heavily.

"Before the adventure is over, you are not allowed to let either of them become your pledgers." Lulu looked straight at Linda.

Linda was even more confused: "This is only natural."

Lulu's expression relaxed a little.

"That's good."

She walked towards the door of the room, "Should I go clean up the third floor?"

Somehow, Linda felt that Lulu's mood had improved again.

Even with the help of temporary waiters hired, Linda and the others had to clean the first and third floors until night.

For dinner they heated up some leftovers to fill their stomachs.

The four members of Luanweihua came to the trophy display room together - there were mountains of gifts piled inside.

Linda and the others had not yet counted how many gifts they had received and how much they were worth in gold coins.

At present, not all members of the Luanweihua team are wearing level 20 equipment, and some outdated equipment of level 10 or so is mixed in.

There is still a long way to go to reach Linda's goal of having all the players in orange equipment.

He planned to sell the gifts for gold coins and arm Luanweihua as soon as possible.

As we all know, each adventurer has six equipment slots.

They are:

head.

chest.

leg.

arms.

Jewelry x2.

Linda's breastplate, boots, and weapon have not reached level 20.

Monica and Kafni are similar, only half of them are level 20 equipment.

There is also Lulu, a level 28 Frostwolf warrior.

"Is this all the equipment you have?"

Linda looked at the warm clothes neatly placed on the table.

Looking at Lulu, who is wearing a large black robe, covering her exquisite body, her mind can't help but think: just a few seconds ago, these were all worn on Lulu.

No wonder it smells so good.

Kafeni woke up drunk and swam in the pile of gifts. His eyes widened when he saw the money: "Hey, hey, OK, OK, it turns out that I have collected so many good things. I want to buy an exclusive carriage."

After spending many days together, Linda saw through Kafni's true nature: a money-hungry, lazy and useless god.

He first checked Lulu's equipment:

Main weapon level 25, orange.

Head, chest armor, and boots are level 23, purple.

Two pieces of level 25 jewelry, one purple and one orange.
