Makinosuke slapped the ground heavily with the pads of his paws.

"Yes, yes. I'll treat you to some fried potato balls when I get home."

"Well, that's not impossible. I want the Big Mac." Makinosuke agreed without any hesitation.

Yasfi stretched out her fingers and teased Zunsuke's chin, causing him to squint his eyes in enjoyment.

Is this guy really a monster? Why is he so stupid? If other monsters are like this glutton, then why would we fight in dungeons?

All adventurers change their jobs to become cooks, and just need to cook and feed monsters every day!

Lei Yi was shocked:

"My fellow countrymen, did you see this? This is the terrifying power of Master Mamenosuke! He tamed a powerful human with just a few words! How cunning he is!"

“My long-cherished wish has come true!”

"Long live Lord Mamonosuke!!"

"Master Mamenosuke, live forever! We are willing to pursue Master Mamenosuke until our death!"

"Chirp~"

The heretics behind Lei Yi all prostrated themselves on the ground.

……

20 floors.

1000 meters away from Shaga, Reed caught up with Guros, who had already pinned down a poacher.

The gargoyle's claws slowly sank into the flesh, bursting with scarlet blood.

Lid yelled, "Gulus! Stop! You can't kill him!"

"Lid, do you want to stop me too?"

He turned his head and glared, and several of his followers around him also looked at him unfriendly.

Heretics are an extremely protective group. No one can hurt their fellow citizens at will. If discovered, they will definitely try every possible means to seek revenge.

but……

"Have you forgotten? This is my long-cherished wish!" Reed reminded.

This caused Guros to fall silent.

Lid continued to persuade: "You are too impulsive, Guros! How can you do something that hurts humans in front of Lord Black Cat and his companions?"

"What should we do if we are labeled as evil monsters? Do you want to destroy the hopes of all our compatriots?"

Guros fell silent again, and the claws under his feet relaxed a little, as if hesitating.

"Then you're just going to ignore the revenge of our compatriots?! Those guys are the poachers who have been attacking us!"

Lid sighed and said helplessly:

"I know my compatriots are being hunted, and it hurts me too. But we are monsters! At least in front of our friends on the ground, we cannot do anything to hurt humans!"

"Also, I can see that there are other people from different camps inside. If Black Cat-sama is classified as an "accomplice of the evil monster", they will also have to make a choice."

Should we stand on the side of monsters or humans?

This is what Reed doesn't want to see.

"Let's go back. We will discuss this matter with His Majesty Black Cat in the future. I believe they will help us."

Guros retracted his claws and kicked the seriously injured adventurer on the ground: "What about this guy?"

Lid hesitated for a moment and said, "Take them back and give them to them. These people seem to be enemies of His Majesty Black Cat. Now that they have been captured, there is no reason to let them go."

"In short, whether to execute them is up to the humans themselves. We should not interfere."

As he said this, he used vines to tie up the unconscious adventurer who was bleeding on the ground, carried him on his shoulders and returned.

In the forest not far away.

Deeks witnessed this.

"Tsk, didn't they catch up?" His eyes were fixed on Reed and Guros.

Bald Gran asked in a low voice: "Boss, are you just going to let it go? Our goods this time are all in their hands."

"What else can we do?" Dicks gave him a sidelong glance. "Those two guys chasing us are worthless and very difficult to deal with. We should just give in this time and make plans after we find out the identities of these people."

Gran rolled his eyes, as if he remembered something, and reminded:

"Dix, one of the guys has shown up. I heard from the Almighty that she seems to be the [Cunning Rat]."

"Rat? Who? Is he famous?"

Gran is a little older, and unlike Dicks, he doesn't only move around in man-made mazes and dungeons. He said calmly:

"Cunning Rat is the military advisor of the Astraea clan. He was once as famous as the Brave Man and was said to be the best successor to the Brave Man."

"Oh?" Deeks showed a little interest.

Soon, he discovered the blind spot:

"You mean the Astraea clan? Weren't those righteous bitches wiped out by that stupid cat Jalo? Are they the survivors?"

Gran swallowed his saliva and said, "Of course not. The cunning rat is indeed dead. This is what Jha Luo saw with his own eyes. The body was cut into several pieces."

"That……"

"Boss, you forgot!" Gran reminded: "We also have collaborators who have come back from the dead."

Deeks' pupils shrank. "Are you talking about that idiot [White-haired ghost] Olivace?"

Gran's reflective forehead is like a chick pecking at rice:

"Yeah, Dex, do you think it's possible that these people are in league with the weirdos?"

"Didn't we see that leader fight before? She used the magic of Scarlet Flower! I won't make a mistake!"

Dicks's expression became extremely wonderful. He slowly raised his irrepressible excitement and said with a smile:

"Hey, hey, are you kidding me? Did those weirdos actually turn all those righteous bitches against you?"

"From a hero who saved the world, to an absolute villain! The story from four years ago is repeated again!"

"Hahaha, they are so interesting!"

Chapter 178: Sword Pointing at the Artificial Maze

20th floor, center of the explosion.

Lied returns to the team with Guros.

Black Cat and the others continued to collect materials for the floor, as they had promised to do as commissioned by Tachibana Kanade.

Because a large number of monsters were killed in one fell swoop, the 20th floor is relatively safe now, especially near the center of the explosion. The dungeon is repairing the environment, so no monsters will be hatched.

Lei and the others are responsible for identifying the monsters captured by Dex. If they are not heretics, they will be dealt with by Shaka.

Shaka and Yasfi exchanged information:

"I didn't find Liu, but I think she will follow the clues of the dark faction."

"So, I set my sights on the Ikelos clan a few days ago. They are the group of people who are most like the dark faction among the entire lower class. In order to find the enemy's base camp, I have been following them."

"I just didn't expect you to show up and get involved with the armed monsters."

Yasifei sat on the tree roots and briefly explained her mental journey.

"So, you have no news about Liu? Where did she go?" Xia Jia asked?

Yasifei shook her head:

"I don't know. I can only confirm that she is not on the nearby floors. Otherwise, if you make such a big noise, it will definitely attract people with ulterior motives, such as the Ikelos family who want to take advantage of the situation to rob, or Liang who wants to rescue."

Yasfi glanced at Leila and added:

"Well... with your face, given the character of that useless elf, he will definitely rush out roaring."

Leila sat cross-legged on the ground and nodded:

"really."

Xia Jia turned to look at Lei Yi:

"What about you? Have you ever seen similar elves?"

Lei gathered her companions and asked each other about it, then shook her head:

"We haven't seen the masked green-haired elf on the nearby floors either."

Xia Jia thought:

"Ryu isn't on the lower level? But there is information proving that she entered the 18th level. Unless she returned to the upper level at night or went deeper, there would be no information at all."

Could it be that the guy rushed into the artificial maze? But that was impossible, and she didn't have the key?

The reason why Xia Jia never traced Liu's whereabouts to the artificial maze was because the possibility was too low.

First, we must confirm that Chanis can find the core members of the artificial maze, which has a very low probability;

Secondly, this core member must foolishly lead Liu to find the entrance to the maze that no one has discovered for hundreds of years;

Once again, if this core member is smart, Liu will not get the key, and Liu will only be able to wander around the periphery, and fail;

Finally, Ryu needs to crouch down by chance and see the person who holds the key, and recognize that the "Eye of Daedalus" is the key to the gate!

If any one of these four conditions cannot be met, Liu will not be able to enter the artificial maze.

So, Xia Jia didn’t even think about it.

but now……

"After eliminating all impossibilities, we have to believe the final answer, no matter how outrageous it is." Xia Jia sighed.

Upon hearing this, Yasifei interrupted and asked, "Do you know where Liu is?"

Xia Jia said in distress:

"I'm not sure, but if it's really the place I think it is, then we're in trouble. It's not a place that people like us can conquer smoothly."

This is beyond the scope, dear. That is a copy that can only be played in the later stage of the game!

Leila's expression was stiff, and she said anxiously: "Even if it's dangerous, just let me go. Tell me the location."

Leila is now in a state where she is not afraid of life and death and can even pass on information. She is indeed the most suitable candidate.

"makes sense."

Xia Jia took out a map from his four-dimensional pocket and spread it on the ground, speculating:

"The information we can confirm at the moment is that Liu did enter the 18th floor, and no one saw her leave. So, my guess is that she is now on the 18th floor."

Yasifei interrupted, "I have been searching on the 18th floor for two days and have not seen [Swift Wind]."

"Are you sure it's all the locations on the 18th floor? Does it include unexplored areas?"

This……

Yasfei shook her head. “There is no unexplored area on the 18th floor. We adventurers have lived on the 18th floor for hundreds of years. If there is an unexplored area, it would have been discovered long ago.”

"That doesn't mean there isn't one, does it?"

It was impossible for Xia Jia to directly tell Yasfi the information about the artificial maze, so he could only remind her in a tactful way.

Of course Yasifei knew that this was nonsense, but it was indeed one of the possibilities.

and so……

"If there is such a secret place that is unknown to the public, where is it?"

Xia Jia looked at the map and was very distressed. How could he reveal the information reasonably?

Lid reminded: "Perhaps, we can interrogate the captured prisoners?"

Leila shook her head: "I just asked him, but he was very stubborn and didn't say a word."

Shaka didn't expect that there would be a traitor on the other side... People who hang out with Thanatos are more or less a little crazy and will self-destruct if they say so.

Just when everyone was at a loss.
