Unfortunately, Bai Ke and Lililuka knew this man's identity in advance, so they naturally couldn't be fooled by him.

"it is good."

Bai Ke had no intention of exposing anything, otherwise how would he know what these people were up to, so he nodded and agreed on the surface.

At the same time, Bai Ke recalled the map information around him and compared it. It was exactly the same as what the other party said. It seemed that the other party's killer move was in that cave.

Or maybe the opponent was misleading him, and the killer move was actually hidden in the three caves in front, waiting for him to run into it.

When Bai Ke thought of this, his vigilance was raised to the highest level at this moment. He was carefully alert to everything around him. At the same time, he slowed down a little to let Lilyluka get closer to him, so that he could protect her when encountering danger.

At this moment, Bai Ke felt the hem of his clothes being pulled at his waist. He lowered his head slightly and looked to the side, and saw Lilyluka with a serious look on her face.

"Master Bai Ke, let me handle the latter part, and you can handle the former part later."

Lilyluka deliberately lowered her voice and said that she also understood the current situation, so she took the initiative to step forward and wanted to do her part.

"it is good."

Bai Ke hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Lilyluka has the magic sword and the advantage of terrain, so she should be able to defeat the opponent. He can then distract her attention and be able to rescue her immediately even if something goes wrong.

Next, everyone in the group ran away, and no one spoke. If you ignore the roar of the monster behind you, the atmosphere would seem quite quiet.

One, two, and three cave chambers were crossed, and when they were about to reach the fourth cave chamber, the knife-wielding adventurer behind them suddenly sped up, trying to overtake the two.

"I'm sorry! My mother is still waiting for me at home. I'm sorry, but I don't want to die in the dungeon."

He kept talking, as if he couldn't bear the pressure of death. In the end, he didn't plan to lure the monster away, but to escape.

Faced with this situation, Bai Ke and Lililuka both quickened their pace to keep themselves ahead of the adventurer.

As they accelerated, the distance between them and the monster was rapidly increasing, until after turning a corner, the monster disappeared.

After turning a corner, as we move forward, we see the entrance to a cave room getting bigger and bigger.

Bai Ke was the first to rush into the cave. At this moment, two sword blades flashing with cold light slashed towards Bai Ke from both sides. The speed was so fast that it was difficult for ordinary people to react.

However, Bai Ke had already been prepared for this. He instantly drew out the Zhan Qiu and dagger at his waist, blocking the swords attacking from both sides.

Clang!

The weapons collided, making an extremely harsh noise.

At this moment, the adventurer holding the knife at the back suddenly increased his speed. It was obvious that his previous speed of running was just a pretense, and now it was his real speed.

At this moment, Lililuka took out the magic sword that had been hidden in her sleeve for a long time, turned around and activated the magic sword, and more cracks appeared on the sword body.

The next second, red flames spurted out, covering the passage behind and spreading inside. The adventurer with the knife had no time to react and was directly engulfed by the flames, letting out a miserable scream.

The screams of their companions distracted the two people near the entrance subconsciously. Bai Ke seized this opportunity and did not rely on his overwhelming ability to break through.

Bai Ke took a step back, and the strength in his hands that was in a stalemate with the opponent was lost. The two of them lost their target and, driven by their own strength, they couldn't help but stagger forward a few steps.

Bai Ke selected a target and used his dagger to knock the sword of the sword-wielding adventurer away. Then Zhan Qiu took advantage of the opportunity, rushed in, and defeated the enemy with one blow.

In an instant, a huge gap was cut in the throat of the sword-wielding adventurer, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

The adventurer covered his neck with both hands, but the blood flowed out uncontrollably. No matter how hard he tried, it was useless. He opened his mouth to say something, but only made a few "ho ho" sounds.

Bai Ke dodged the splattering blood and rushed straight towards the remaining middle-aged orc adventurer without stopping.

Everything happened in a flash, and the middle-aged orc adventurer had just reacted when he saw his companions being killed.

Ganu was not angry about his companion being killed. Although the other party was nominally his companion, they were actually partners. They often fought each other for money, and the relationship between them could be imagined.

At this moment, the long-lost fear and terror appeared in Ganu's heart, suppressing his greed for money and allowing him to regain some of his sanity.

Ganu understood that they had chosen the wrong target this time and misjudged the opponent's and their own strength, which led to the current situation.

Ganu wanted to escape, but Bai Ke did not give him the chance. Taking advantage of the opponent's panic, the dagger bypassed the greatsword's defense and cut off his right hand holding the weapon.

Bang! Bang!

Along with the sound of two objects falling to the ground, the next moment, an even more miserable scream pierced through the entire cave, lingering for a long time.

At this moment, the middle-aged orc adventurer was kneeling on the ground, holding the broken end of his right hand tightly, blood constantly flowing out of it like a faucet. His whole face was twisted and distorted in pain, and he looked extremely miserable.

But Bai Ke did not pause at all. He raised the dagger in his hand, then brought it down, stabbing into the intact left arm of the orc adventurer and cutting off the bone inside.

Then, Bai Ke ignored the opponent's miserable appearance, raised his foot and stepped down hard, breaking the opponent's calf.

Bai Ke took out a tube of healing potion from his waist, crushed the mouth of the bottle directly, and poured the potion mixed with glass fragments into the mouth of the beastman, keeping him alive so that he would not die for the time being.

In other words, Bai Ke wanted to know something, otherwise the last Soma clan adventurer would have been killed by Bai Ke directly, and there would be no need to go through so much trouble.

Bai Ke turned and walked towards the entrance, intending to deal with the monsters chasing him and send them to reincarnation.

At this moment, in the passage, Lililuka was staring blankly at the scene in front of her. After the flames disappeared, a nearly charred corpse fell in the passage.

Lililuka looked at the charred corpse. At this moment, she felt as if a shackle in her heart was broken, and she felt infinite joy and satisfaction after revenge.

But then, the guilt of killing her own kind quietly emerged in her heart, and the two emotions intertwined in her heart, making Lilyluka unable to adapt for a while.

At this moment, Lililuka was very confused and didn't know whether Lord Bai Ke would accept her with blood on her hands.

Human beings are strange animals. When a person who has been in darkness sees a ray of light that illuminates himself, he will hold it tightly in his hands and not want to let it leave.

Any changes and situations of this light will make this person think too much and do many meaningless things.

At this moment, Lilyluka was immersed in this emotion, unable to extricate herself, and even ignored the monsters that appeared at the end of the passage.

This is because there are people she trusts around her. Otherwise, if this happened in the past, Lilyluka would have run away to save her life instead of standing there in a daze.

Bai Ke arrived just as Lililuka trusted, but he did not comfort the other party at the first moment. Instead, he walked straight into the passage.

When Bai Ke passed by a severely burned corpse, his foot stepped on the corpse's neck, and with a "click", he stabbed it again.

Then, Bai Ke walked faster and faster, and finally broke into a sprint. The next second, he rushed directly into the oncoming tide of monsters and started the slaughter.

The tide of nearly twenty monsters, facing Bai Ke alone, was like a tide hitting a solid wall. It did not cause any impact, but instead shattered itself.

For Bai Ke, dealing with these monsters was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables. There was no difficulty at all.

Although Bai Ke did not have any magic or skills, with his overwhelming abilities and techniques, he slaughtered all the attacking monsters in a short time.

"Lord Bai Ke."

Lilyluka had come back to her senses by now. She looked at the tall man who was walking towards her after killing the monster, and spoke involuntarily.

"Lily, you did a great job."

Looking at Lilyluka's anxious face, Bai Ke reached out and rubbed her little head, comforting her.

Lililuka's eyes gradually brightened. She first took back the broken magic sword in her hand, and then she asked nervously:

"Master Bai Ke, Lily, can I still follow you in the future?"

"You are my supporter, so you must follow me. Unless you want to leave on your own initiative, I will not drive you away without reason."

Bai Ke looked into Lililuka's eyes and answered seriously.

"Thank you, Master Bai Ke."

When Lililuka heard this, she was overwhelmed with joy and couldn't help but hug Bai Ke's thighs. She couldn't control her tears and cried with joy.

It was a heartwarming scene, but because of the height difference between the two, their posture at the moment was a bit awkward, that is, Lilyluka was lying on the side of her hips, which was awkward but not too embarrassing.

Bai Ke felt a little helpless, but this was still within the tolerable range.

The little man crying with joy, the helpless young man, the wailing seriously injured person, the corpses of monsters and humans, at this moment, combined into a weird picture.

Lililuka quickly calmed down and her sanity gradually returned. She let go of the thigh she was hugging, took two steps back, and looked up at Bai Ke.

She realized what she had just done, and Lilyluka's cheeks turned red in an instant. At this moment, she didn't even dare to look at Bai Ke, and said stutteringly:

Qianxun③㈠②㈧㈠⒋①③㈨

"Master Bai...Master Bai Ke, I'm going to...collect materials."

After saying that, Lililuka rushed directly towards the monster's corpse without looking back. The shyness and embarrassment in her heart made her dare not look directly at Bai Ke.

After watching Lilyluka go to the monster's corpse, Bai Ke turned and walked towards the cave. There was another person there, waiting for him to ask something.

ps: I now owe two thousand words for the bounty. In the coming period, I will work hard to pay it back and try to pay it off this month.

Chapter 40: Redemption

At this moment, a piece of information flashed across the side of his vision, attracting Bai Ke's attention and causing him to pause slightly.

【Mission name: Redemption.】

【Progress: Completed.】

Is it done? It seems that Lily has completely let down her guard, which is really a gratifying thing.

This prompt message made Bai Ke feel relieved, but he was still a little confused and didn't understand how this task was completed so quickly.

Originally, Bai Ke thought that this task would require a long period of time together to complete, but he didn't expect it to be completed so quickly. You know, he and Lilyluka had only been together for a few days.

But then, Bai Ke suddenly thought of the days he had spent with the other person, the first time he called for help, the second time he saved his life, the third time they became accomplices...until now.

After thinking about what he and Lilyluka had experienced in the past few days, Bai Ke had some understanding. If even these could not bring redemption to him, then this person was rotten to the core.

But now is not the time to think about these things. Bai Ke shook his head, threw away these distracting thoughts in his mind, and stopped thinking about these messy things.

Then, Bai Ke continued to move forward towards the cave, intending to do his own thing.

At this time, the screams in the cave had subsided. The middle-aged orc man had already adapted to the pain, and he gradually recovered, and his remaining sanity gradually returned.

Ganu understood that the other party did not kill him immediately because he was still useful, so he still had a chance to survive.

With the help of the healing potion, the middle-aged orc's wounds stopped bleeding, but other than that, his injuries did not improve further. After all, it was only a tube of low-level healing potion worth a few thousand faris.

At this moment, Ganu looked at the man walking towards him with fear in his eyes. He understood that the moment that would decide his life or death had come.

"grown ups……."

Ganu opened his mouth to say something, but before he could finish his words, a long knife was placed on his neck, forcing him to swallow the words.

"I ask, you answer, understand?"

The cold words, as well as the stinging and cold feeling coming from the skin of his neck, instantly defeated Ganu's rationality. He immediately nodded rapidly and replied:

"I'll tell you everything...I'll tell you everything..."

"Why did you choose to rob us?"

Seeing that the other party had quieted down, Bai Ke asked one of his doubts. During this time, he kept an eye on all directions and listened carefully, guarding against other adventurers coming and seeing this scene.

"this……."

Ganu hesitated for a moment, but looking at the other party's calm eyes, he shuddered and immediately told the reason:

"I saw that your backpacks were bulging, and it seemed like you had a good harvest, so I became malicious."

So, these guys were simply attracted by the money, not because they recognized Lilyluka's identity.

When Bai Ke heard this, his thoughts turned.

At this time, Ganu did not stop talking and continued:

"And the reason why we need money is because our Soma clan's main god can brew divine wine, and in order to drink the divine wine, we need to contribute a large amount of money every month. We are still a little short of the quota, so we have to do things like robbing."

After saying this, Ganu gritted his teeth and said:

"If you are willing to let me go this time, I will give you one third of my share of the Moon Goddess Wine... No, half, I will give you half."

After hearing these words, Bai Ke looked at the reluctance on the other person's face and knew that this person was hopeless. Even at the critical moment of life and death, he was still pursuing the magic wine.

At the same time, Bai Ke was also very wary of the magic wine, because this thing was too similar to that thing. Although it did not harm the body, it was wine after all, but the dependence and desire were the same.

Bai Ke resisted the urge to kill the other party, stared into his eyes, and continued to ask:

"What do you know about Lilyluka Erd?"

Ganu was puzzled by this question, but immediately answered:

"She was a member of our clan, but she seemed to have died in the dungeon a few days ago along with a group of adventurers."

He finished speaking and then explained:

"But she is one of our moneybags. Because she has a criminal record, we suspected that she was faking her death, so we deliberately looked for her, but we didn't find her. Obviously, she is very likely dead."
