In Zongman, he transformed into Fu Hua at the beginning

Che Huiyi, who was originally a little embarrassed to reveal her inner thoughts, suddenly remembered that with Xiadie's emotional intelligence, it was impossible for her not to notice her mistakes.

After realizing that she was the one being taken care of, Cha Huiyi almost pouted.

"Sorry, because Senior Che doesn't want to be exposed..."

Xiadie was not embarrassed when her identity was exposed, but just smiled helplessly.

"Forget it, let's go back first."

Cha Huiyi sighed and led the way back.

"Um...are you not going to continue this time?"

The other hunters were very excited to have just admired the friendship of the two beautiful girls up close, but they were a little sad to hear that the exploration was cancelled.

"I'm not sure I can protect you without the gear."

Cha Huiyi explained, "After all, if a monster possesses the same level of intelligence as the White Ghost, then its leader must have even higher intelligence."

After she finished speaking, she saw that the others had sullen but still lost expressions on their faces, and then she realized what was bothering them.

"Because I unilaterally terminated the commission, the commission fee will not be recovered."

"As expected of Vice President Che!" X6.

Change of face so quickly?

Xiadie didn't care about it. Money was not important to her. Recognition was important. As an S-level player, if you wanted to gain recognition, conquering an A-level dungeon was the most meaningless thing because everyone knew you could do it.

What she was actually expecting was an S-class portal, but... this kind of portal is really hard to come by. It seems that the only S-class portal in Country H is on Qizhou Island a few years ago.

According to the information on the Internet, many S-level hunters went there at that time, but the final result was that they returned empty-handed, and many intermediate and advanced hunters were killed.

Among them, an S-class hunter was even killed, and now the portal there has been completely opened, becoming a paradise for insects.

Cha Huiyi had mentioned this to herself before, and also told herself that Choi Jung-in had always wanted to take back Qizhou Island. The reinforcement of the two "youngest S-level" in the past two years made Choi Jung-in even more determined to take back Qizhou Island.

Not to mention Che Huiyi, who is the strongest S-class overall, Xiadie is also the strongest S-class among the maids known as the Death Shadow.

Although she does not have an actual record in the eyes of the public, judging from the hunters who team up with her and her special abilities that are almost like a conceptual god, there is always a reason to say that she is the strongest S-class.

With the addition of these two S-levels, it’s no wonder that Choi Jung-in is eager to make a move.

According to Cha Huiyi, when Choi Jung-in's application is approved, he will pay her a high employment fee and invite her to go with him.

Xiadie knew that this was a pure tactic to win him over. Even if he didn't pay, as a hunter registered with the Hunter Association, he was obliged to obey the Hunter Association's orders. Going to Jeju Island must be decided by the Hunter Association, which means that once combat power was needed, he would have to go even without paying a penny.

Unless you don't want the license anymore.

Of course, this is basically impossible. If you lose your license, other countries will immediately come to win you over. So even if you can revoke your license, most likely you won't, but it will undoubtedly reduce your reputation to freezing point.

Whether it is for recognition, maintenance of order, or inner choice, Xiadie will not refuse the association's dispatch.

Choi Joong-in didn't know the details, but he definitely knew that he would make the same deployment. In this case, paying an additional hiring fee was an obvious attempt to win him over. And it was likely not just Choi Joong-in, other guilds had also been paying attention to him for a long time.

Xiadie was somewhat grateful to him at this time. If it weren't for Hantes, she would probably have to face invitations and harassment from several guilds at the same time.

Are you the one who protects me and Senior Che in our daily life?

Chairman Cui, you are really gentle now (cow horse).

As their thoughts turned, they had already arrived in front of the portal, but...

"It turned... red?"

Chapter 27 The Sweating Orc Lord.

"Why...why?"

"It's not a red portal."

Hearing the terrified cry of the D-rank hunter beside her, Xiadie spoke to comfort him, "Although it's red, this isn't a red portal. It's a force blocking the escape route."

Her clear and gentle voice immediately extinguished the restlessness that had just been aroused in everyone's hearts.

After taking a closer look again, everyone realized that although the portal looked red at first glance, the red was not actually the color of the door, but a seal covering the door.

The main reason is that these D-level and E-level people have little chance of seeing the red portal, which leads to their mistake.

Cha Huiyi also explained: "If it was a red portal, the strange phenomenon would not appear so late. Normally, it would turn red when we entered."

“Is… is that so…”

The others relaxed slightly.

"but……"

Cha Huiyi's expression became even uglier: "I've never seen anything like this before. The ability to block the portal, and an S-class leader with intelligence..."

Why does it sound like... it seems worse than encountering a red portal?

The D-rank and E-rank hunters became nervous again at this sudden change of attitude.

"It's okay. Although death is always around, I promise it won't find you today."

Xiadie still had a peaceful smile on her face, and did not feel any negative emotions because of the current situation.

"That's right, Xiadie and I are here, so you don't have to worry."

Cha Huiyi also noticed the other hunters' worried expressions. Not being very good at comforting people, she simply redirected their attention: "This accident was caused by me. I will apply for compensation from Hunters afterwards."

She actually wanted to say that she would give compensation, but she really had no income now, and the money from the sale of the magic crystal would not be credited to her account immediately. Even if it was credited, she would have to repay Choi Jung-in's favor first.

She is now more financially strapped than ever before.

After saying that, Che Huiyi gave Xiadie an embarrassed smile: "Sorry, Xiadie, I didn't expect that this time..."

"It's ok."

Xiadie never minded this kind of thing. She knew that Che Huiyi wanted to thank her and that was why she found a way to get access to the dungeon, but what Xiadie paid was not as high as Che Huiyi imagined.

For various reasons, the input and output between friends may not be proportional. Xiadie only said a simple sentence, but Che Huiyi invested huge energy and financial resources. From the perspective of results and universal rationality, this is really equal. Che Huiyi even took advantage of it, but Xiadie does not think so completely.

At least she felt a little unworthy, which was why Xiadie did not take the others away directly.

After leaving here, Che Huiyi had to do favors again. Although it would definitely not be as difficult as the first time due to reasons, the operation of the guild was very complicated. Even if there were reasons, it would be a major operation that changed the guild's action plan.

She was confident that she could protect everyone, so there was no need to make Cha Huiyi suffer any more.

But this matter was not easy to explain, so he simply decided to give Che Huiyi some things somewhere else later.

Just think of it as a give-and-take between friends.

Che Huiyi didn't know what Xiadie was thinking. Seeing that Xiadie had no intention of blaming her and didn't even have any negative emotions, she just thought that the other party had an unexpectedly good temper. She even thought about Xiadie's loneliness in school and wondered if she was excluded because she was too soft-hearted.

But no matter what, the more important thing now is to deal with the portal.

Thinking of this, Che Huiyi couldn't help but regret going out without wearing equipment. If a hunter has no equipment, his combat effectiveness will drop a lot. Although she is still S-level, without equipment she can only be seven or eight times stronger than an ordinary fully armed A-level hunter.

This doesn't reach the S-rank level that should be achieved when entering a dungeon... Even if this was due to negligence due to not intending to enter the boss's area, negligence is still negligence.

Just as everyone was about to turn back again, Che Huiyi smelled an unpleasant smell coming from a distance, which made her heart tremble and she moved closer to Xiadie. Amid the slightly surprised expressions of Xiadie and the other hunters, she inhaled a hint of fragrance from her hair.

Feeling that she was alive again, Che Huiyi breathed a sigh of relief and then looked towards the far corner of the cave.

As she was on high alert, the other hunters realized something and hid behind the two of them.

Xiadie and Che Huiyi looked at each other, and then they both walked forward.

The heavy but orderly footsteps were clearly audible, and dozens of huge red figures walked out from the corner. The appearance reminded Xiadie of the orcs she saw in the first dungeon, but those orcs were obviously not as tall as the ones in front of her, and their color was completely different.

"Giant orc..."

Cha Huiyi frowned.

Giant orcs are not a highly intelligent race...but such a large number of them are indeed difficult to deal with.

"I'll take the lead!"

Che Huiyi knew that she had no equipment, so she didn't plan to be so brave as to solve the problem alone, but she still took on the responsibility of being the main tank and tried her best to make Xiadie fight comfortably.

Xiadie naturally knew Che Huiyi's mentality, so she didn't say anything polite: "Then I'll leave it to Senior Che."

It just so happened that she also wanted to see Cha Huiyi's battle in person, so that she could decide what gift to give her later.

After getting the answer, Cha Huiyi did not hesitate. Her figure was like a flying arrow. In the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of the giant orcs, dragging a golden light. The long sword in her hand was wrapped in dazzling magic power. With a simple swing of her sword, she cut the three giant orcs in front of her in half.

This immediately attracted the hatred of all the orcs. It was not because they cared much about their companions, but because they instinctively wanted to resolve the threat in front of them.

And this is exactly what Cha Huiyi wants.

Every move of the giant orc was filled with terrifying power. Even an A-class tank would feel its arms go numb from its powerful attacks, but it was meaningless if it missed.

Cha Huiyi's figure among the orcs was like a dancing butterfly. It was more like performing a gorgeous dance than dodging and moving around.

Sure enough, there are only wrong names, but no wrong nicknames.

Taking her figure in and assessing her strength, Xiadie didn't plan to continue slacking off.

Just when all the orcs' attention was on Che Huiyi, a deadly and chilling chill suddenly crept up their backs. The sudden premonition of death made their wild survival instincts alert to an unprecedented level.

However, this alertness did not make them run away immediately. As if they knew death was inevitable, they just stood there stupidly.

A purple blade that seemed to tear through space flashed among the orcs. Without even a scream, several giant orcs turned into purple particles and disappeared into the cave.

"What's this……!?"

Deep in the cave, the giant orc lord who had been calm and composed began to sweat on his forehead.

Chapter 28: Business mutual praise.

"This is Xiadie's..."

It was actually the first time that Che Huiyi saw Xiadie take action. Although she had known about it for a long time and could vaguely feel the breath of death from Xiadie, this scene that seemed to materialize the concept of death and bring it to reality really opened her eyes.

This is a nice way of putting it. In reality, even as a teammate and companion, her strong life instinct is urging her to stay away from here.

The fear of death unsurprisingly sowed the seeds.

But soon, Cha Huiyi poured boiling water on it and it could no longer sprout.

It’s not that her rationality is so strong, it’s simply that she is stubbornly convinced that Xiadie is not a bad person and not a threat.

Off to the side, how could the wilder and more instinctive beastmen, who could sense the presence even Cha Huiyi, ignore it? The giant beastmen that had been about to smash their weapons at Cha Huiyi immediately stopped their movements and, roaring, ran deeper into the cave without looking back.

Xiadie was not unfamiliar with this scene. She had been to many dungeons. Any magical beast would react the same way after seeing her power. She had seen it too many times.

Compared to Che Huiyi and the orcs, the other hunters in the attack team did not have such strong perception abilities. In their eyes, only Xiadie and Che Huiyi were so powerful that they made the ferocious and fearless monsters flee in panic.

This severely intensified their perception of 'S-level = powerful'. As I said before, knowing and seeing it in front of your eyes are different after all. Only by truly experiencing the oppression of the enemy can you understand how real the power shown in the video is.

However, Cha Huiyi had no intention of letting the tiger go back to the mountain.

Unlike Xiadie, who knew she had a backer and therefore always had ample room for maneuver, Che Huiyi, who had a good understanding of the dungeon and a formulaic process, knew the benefits of defeating them one by one. The moment the orcs tried to escape, she decisively switched from defense to offense, and the sharp blade in her hand drew a golden arc, cutting off all the orcs passing by her.

The giant orcs that were extremely troublesome for A-level were easy for her to deal with with just a little effort.

Seeing this, Xiadie naturally cooperated in the harvest. These three-meter-tall beasts could not even escape as they were being chased by two S-level monsters.

"solved."

Cha Huiyi didn't retract her sword until all the orcs were killed.

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xiadie said with a smile.

"No, you contributed more in the fight just now."

Cha Huiyi waved her hand and smiled. "This is obviously my first time participating in an A-level dungeon, but I feel like you, Xiadie, are more comfortable with it than me."

She is not the kind of person who clings to her status as a senior. Xiadie's performance exceeded her expectations and imagination, so she naturally would no longer consider herself a senior.

On the contrary, Che Huiyi felt at ease and happy because of her teammates' reliability.

"After all, Senior Che isn't in top form."

Xiadie knew that her starting point was different from others, but being too modest was a bit inappropriate. Since nothing she said would be good, she just said something nice.

Anyway, this is the fact.

However, Cha Huiyi and she have a lot in common in terms of their different starting points. In this world where the starting point is the end point, Cha Huiyi is a natural born strong person.

In addition, she was not the type to think she was superior to others, so she could empathize with Xiadie's mentality. Even though she knew that she might not be able to do better even if she was fully armed, she just smiled and did not make excuses.
