The elf girl realized these things and instantly turned her gaze to the man in front of her, a tall, strong, and stern man with a long sword in his hand.
"Sir, could you please help us? Let's work together to solve this monster feast. The number of monsters chasing us is not more than the corpses here."
The elf girl said in an almost pleading voice. Such an expression and demeanor would not normally appear on elves who claim to be "noble".
But at this moment, Liya could no longer care about so many things. Losing two companions in one day was something she could not accept. Now that she had hope of saving her companions, she would catch them no matter what.
[Ding~ Trigger mission]
【Name: Rescue】
[Difficulty 1 Stars]
[Introduction: The elf girl and her companions are in a desperate situation and hope to be rescued.] (Note: The hero saves the elf and brings the elf back. Come on, I'm counting on you~)
[Reward: 200 experience points, Elf's Tears. ]
【Do you want to accept this task? 】
Bai Ke paid some attention and after reading the message, he directly chose to accept it.
At this time, Liya thought that she needed help now. If she didn't have bargaining chips, she wouldn't be able to impress other adventurers, so she immediately shouted:
"As long as you help us get through this difficult time, we can give you all the money and belongings we have. After we return to the ground, I can also give you all the 400,000 faris I saved."
Bai Ke shook his head and said:
"Forget about your reward. The magic stones and items dropped by the monsters will be mine later."
Bai Ke heard the conversation between the two in the passage, and the male adventurer's actions afterwards further proved the truthfulness of the other party's words.
The other party really wanted to stay there to hold back the tide of monsters, just to let the newcomer who had just joined his clan escape, and he even reminded this strange adventurer to escape. All these were undoubtedly telling him that he was a good person.
Bai Ke admires such good people from the bottom of his heart. He thinks he can't do such a thing, but that doesn't stop him from admiring such people.
If such a good person encounters trouble and he is present, he doesn't mind helping, and he can also complete the task indicators by killing the monsters that chase him.
Why not do something that kills multiple birds with one stone?
Bai Ke's first sentence made the elf girl feel despair, but Bai Ke's following words made her feel like she was reborn and saw hope in the darkness.
"Thank you...thank you."
The elf girl was so moved that she was incoherent. If she wasn't in crisis right now, she would have bowed to express her gratitude no matter what.
Tuka looked ahead and saw a group of dog-headed men appearing at a corner a few dozen meters away. They were rushing through the passage with a very loud momentum.
He clenched the sword in his hands with both hands, fear and terror in his heart made Tuka want to turn around and run immediately, but he did not move. Even though his body was shaking, his eyes were firm.
At this time Tuka heard the voice coming from behind, and his suppressed emotions burst out. He was angry. Why not run? Why waste time!
"Yali Kesi Vina, why are you wasting time, run!!!"
He couldn't help but roar, and even used the full name of this member of his team, which shows how angry he was.
"Tuka, come to the cave quickly. This gentleman is very powerful. He solved the monster feast that just happened here by himself. If we work together, we can definitely solve the monsters that are chasing us."

The elf girl cut to the chase and quickly recounted what had happened in that short period of time in a concise and clear manner.
After hearing these things, most of the negative emotions that had been pent up in Tuka's heart dissipated, and a feeling of joy for escaping death surged up.
Tuka believed that in such a critical situation, Liya would not lie to him, so he turned around and ran towards the cave without any hesitation.
As a human being, Tuka is naturally afraid of death, but as an elder in the clan, he has the responsibility to protect the newcomers, so he stood up and bought time for Liya.
Now that there is hope for life, Tuka will naturally not give up. Who would want to die when they can live?
He also wants to go back and marry his childhood sweetheart….
Well, I will never be an adventurer again. Let the dream of becoming a powerful adventurer die. Tuka now just wants to go back alive and then quit the ranks of adventurers.
Old things and a few Lingjiulong stables
Only by touching death can one understand what one is pursuing. After this life and death decision, Tuka figured out a lot of things.
After just a few steps, Tuka rushed out of the passage. At this time, he also noticed the situation in the cave, which was full of corpses.
Tuka was not too surprised. As an experienced lower-level adventurer, he had helped higher-level adventurers in his clan before, so this scene was just average.
However, Tuka was happy. This scene completely confirmed the truthfulness of Liya's previous words. With the help of this strong man, their chances of survival increased greatly.
"I'm sorry to bother you this time."
Tuka first thanked Bai Ke, then he quickly said:
"I'm good at close combat, and Liya is a long-range fighter using a bow and arrow. If there's anything we can do to help, please feel free to arrange it."
The most taboo thing in an adventurer's team is chaos, not being able to distinguish between the primary and the secondary, and not understanding the situation of other members. This can easily lead to a loose team and easy destruction.
Tuka was very clear about this, so he handed over the leadership of their team to the other party. Since he was prepared to rely on the other party to overcome this difficulty, there was nothing wrong with trusting the other party once.
"I will attract the attention of most of the monsters, and you guys will hold off the attacks of the remaining monsters. It would be best if you could provide me with support during this time."
Bai Ke said directly that he understood the meaning of the adventurer's words, but he knew very well that he was not cut out to be a commander, and blindly giving orders could easily cause big trouble.
"Okay." x2
Tuka and Liya looked at each other, then nodded in agreement without any rebuttal or questioning, and then the two quickly retreated to a distance.
Bai Ke stared at the monsters approaching quickly in the passage, and moved to one side of the passage. While avoiding the impact of the monster tide, he could also effectively break into the monster group and kill them.
As the monster tide approached, the ground in the cave began to tremble slightly, and at the same time, the roars and shouts of monsters were heard.
The next second, the monster rushed into the cave from the passage.
The first to be attacked were a dozen or so Kobolds, followed by two purple moths flying in the air, and three dungeon lizards crawling in from the walls and even the ceiling.
Some of the ogres in front were running too fast and didn't notice the corpses of other monsters on the ground. Many of them were tripped to the ground, which caused a chain reaction. The ogres following behind were also tripped.
Suddenly, there were a bunch of rolling gourds on the ground, and only a few dog-headed men were still standing.
Faced with this sudden opportunity, Bai Ke would naturally not let it go easily. He immediately sprinted forward and started hacking and killing.
A bright flash of knife light flashed across, cutting a dog-headed man's neck, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
With one step, the head of a dog-headed man who was knocked unconscious and struggling to get up suddenly caved in, and his body twitched unconsciously. It was obvious that he was about to die.
With a leap and a swing, a purple moth two or three meters in the air was cut in half, fell to the ground, and gradually became motionless.
The head of a dog-headed man that was rushing towards him fell to the ground and gradually turned into ashes. A large amount of blood gushed out of its body, dyeing the surroundings red.
The two people watching from a distance were greatly surprised by Bai Ke's extremely bold move.
Small monsters like the Gnoll are actually not that scary. Either of them has the ability to kill it easily.
But when there are too many monsters, it becomes scary.
Again, one-on-one and one-on-many are two different concepts. Once you face more than ten monsters, a normal team of three level 1 adventurers can only run for their lives.
Bai Ke's proactive sneak attack can be said to be extremely bold.
At this time, some of the confused dog-headed people stood up one after another, and their instinctive bloodthirsty desire made them target the people in the cave.
Since Bai Ke was closest to them, most of the gnolls rushed towards Bai Ke, while a few gnolls broke away from the main group and pounced towards the two people in the distance.
Although Tuka was surprised at Bai Ke's bold move, he was not distracted at all when he saw three gnolls coming towards them.
He immediately went to meet him, and at the same time he shouted:
"Liya, don't just stand there, kill the last purple moth quickly."
The purple moth has the ability to release poisonous scale powder. If people are contaminated or inhaled, they will quickly fall into a state of poisoning. Although it will not be fatal in a short period of time, it is extremely disgusting.
In a dungeon that is a place full of dangers, being infected with this thing is equivalent to slow death. The decline in various conditions will definitely cooperate with the monsters to drag people to death.
So when facing a group of monsters, the first thing you need to do is kill this type of monster, otherwise you will definitely be disgusted to death by it.
"okay."
Tuka's shouting directly woke up the elf girl. She immediately bent her bow and arrow, aimed at the purple moth in the air that posed the greatest threat to Bai Ke, and started shooting.
At this time, the last purple moth flapped its wings and sprayed the poisonous scale powder it carried towards Bai Ke. Bai Ke also noticed the situation on the side and immediately prepared to dodge.
The next second, an arrow accurately hit the purple moth's wing, shooting it down and eliminating the trouble for Bai Ke.
Bai Ke glanced at the two people in the distance and then continued fighting.
Bai Ke moved nimbly among the group of dog-headed people, attacking their weaknesses with every move. Every attack either killed the monster or crippled it, making it lose the ability to stand up and fight in the short term.
In a short period of time, half of the gnolls fell.
At this moment, Bai Ke dodged and a dungeon lizard fell down from the spot. The next second, the long knife pierced into the eye socket of the dungeon lizard, causing it to ascend to heaven on the spot.
Drawing out his long sword, Bai Ke slashed behind him and beheaded an attacking dog-headed man. Then he rushed into the remaining dog-headed men and continued killing.
Click.
Accompanied by a crisp sound of bones breaking, Bai Ke threw the last ogre whose neck he had crushed in his hands to the ground.
Then Bai Ke looked to one side and saw that the two men there had finished their fight. There were three corpses of gnolls and two corpses of dungeon lizards on the ground, which were obviously killed by them.
Seeing that nothing was happening over there, Bai Ke turned his attention to the ground around him and began looking for monsters that were not dead to finish off.
The long sword stabbed down one by one, sending the half-dead monsters away.
After a moment, Bai Ke looked around. When there was no other movement on the field, he swung his long sword to shake off the blood on it, and then put it back into the sheath.
After finishing these things, Bai Ke shouted to the man and the elf next to him:
"Help me collect some magic stones."
"Yeah, okay." x2
Tuka and Liya both nodded when they heard this. They finished the battle earlier than Bai Ke, but seeing that there were only two or three monsters left on Bai Ke's side, they did not go forward to help.
Besides, Tuka asked Liya about the previous events and learned about what happened before. For this, the two were very grateful to Bai Ke.
Compared to saving their lives, helping to dig magic stones was just a small matter.
ps: I accidentally fell asleep while thinking about the plot at noon, so it’s posted a little late, sorry.
Chapter 22: Cruelty
So, the three of them began to get busy in the cave, digging the magic stone with skillful or unskillful movements.
It seemed that Liya was a newcomer, and her movements in digging magic stones were as unskilled as Bai Ke's, and she was sometimes flustered.
Tuka's movements in digging magic stones were extremely sophisticated, and his speed was even faster than Bai Ke and Liya combined. This was the speed of a seasoned adventurer.
"The Kobold's magic stone is located one inch below his chest and abdomen. Be careful when digging it out..."
Tuka saw the poor skills of the two and subconsciously began to teach them. This was a habit he had developed over the past few years of training newcomers. When he saw that the newcomers did something wrong, he wanted to teach them properly and correct their mistakes.
But as Tuka spoke, his voice gradually became lower. After all, the other party was much stronger than him. Wasn't it a bit impolite for him to give instructions like this?
Wouldn't people think that I'm showing off skills that only supporters use, and that these are just skills that supporters need to learn, and would they look down on me?
Supporters are non-combatants who follow adventurers into dungeons and are responsible for various logistical matters for adventurers, and recovering magic stones is one of them.
Bai Ke was listening to Tuka's description of the techniques and trying to memorize them carefully when the voice suddenly stopped, leaving him a little confused.
Could it be that this thing requires inheritance and is not taught to outsiders?
Bai Ke was puzzled. He looked at the man who was in a daze and asked:
"Why don't you continue?"
“Ah… um….”
Bai Ke's words immediately woke Tuka up. He looked up and around and saw that the people who saved him and the newcomers he brought were all looking at him curiously.
"Uh, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Tuka asked somewhat at a loss. At this moment, he just felt that the atmosphere here was a little wrong.
"Why don't you continue? Don't you want to pass on these skills to others?"
Seeing that he didn't seem to react, Bai Ke couldn't help but ask again.
"No... not."
Tuka quickly shook his head upon hearing this, and said a little embarrassedly:
"I just think that you might not appreciate these skills that only supporters would learn."
