The wrong person on the ground, the opening sword soul template

Chapter 265 Unusual Situation

The Lone King of the Labyrinth, Goliath was born.

Born from crystal-like ore, it immediately let out a deafening roar upon seeing Liang Yue and the others.

Then you move on the ground and try to kill them all.

The giant roared, his feet larger than a bathtub, and the hard, rock-like ground shattered under his stomping.

"run!"

Upon seeing this, Liang Yue immediately alerted everyone, and the others immediately ran for their lives.

For them at level 2, the floor master Goliath was the true Grim Reaper descending.

With his current physical strength and power, even facing the Minotaur one-on-one would be extremely difficult.

If anything goes wrong, they could very well die.

The Minotaur, when facing Goliath, the master of the floor, was utterly defeated.

Even if a dozen or so attacked together, they would all be instantly killed.

The standard Goliath is rated Lv4 by the guild. With this level of suppression, even dozens of Lv2 adventurers probably couldn't defeat it.

Nina and the others were pale-faced; faced with such immense pressure to die, everyone was squeezing out their full potential.

Liang Yue was at the very back of the group, observing the distance between his team and Goliath.

If he were to kill Goliath at this point, his identity would undoubtedly be exposed.

That was a situation he was unwilling to accept.

He currently possesses too little knowledge within the school district and wants to acquire more knowledge across the entire district.

Therefore, he needs to act more discreetly.

With the exit just ahead and death chasing them, Iglin and his companions had only one thought left: to run.

However, running with all his might caused Chris to neglect to observe the ground.

He tripped over a protruding rock and fell to the ground a short distance away.

Nina's face was filled with despair, while Chris's expression had already become stiff with fear.

Then Liang Yue sped up and, with supplies on her back, carried Chris directly on her shoulder.

Liang Yue urged again, "Keep running!"

Chris's cheeks flushed, and then he couldn't breathe because his stomach was being pressed against his shoulder.

He struggled, but was completely outmatched in strength.

"Gig, its fist is glowing! It's about to smash!"

Liang Yue felt a strong storm coming from behind her.

That was definitely Goliath preparing to unleash a powerful attack, and Liang Yue accelerated again.

He placed Chris in front of him in a princess carry, then gathered sword energy at the soles of his feet.

Since Goliath's attacks are related to the wind element, perhaps he can take the opportunity to convert the Selfless Sword Aura into a wind attribute.

Then, disguise yourself and use that power to leave.

Goliath raised his fist high and then slammed it down onto the ground.

"boom!"

A deafening roar resounded, followed by a powerful shockwave that spread rapidly across the ground and then hurtled toward Liang Yue and the others.

At the same time, Liang Yue stomped the Selfless Sword Qi on the ground.

Suddenly, a strong storm arose behind everyone.

Before Goliath's attack arrived, the hurricane suddenly spread and, with Liang Yue and the others on their backs, blew them away to the entrance of the eighteenth floor.

Nina and the others stumbled and fell into the tunnel on the eighteenth floor, plummeting down the stairs below.

Liang Yue, holding Chris, came to a steady stop.

It's been a long time since I've been so embarrassed by a monster of such a low level.

Liang Yue felt a pang of emotion.

The hurricane just now caused Nina and Rachel to crash into Iglin's back, and the three of them landed simultaneously in the tunnel on the eighteenth floor.

Only then did everyone manage to get up, and then they cheered as if they had survived a disaster.

"Great! I thought we were really going to die."

"Jig, put me down!"

Liang Yue nodded, only then remembering that he was still carrying Chris in his arms.

Based on their recent contact, Liang Yue felt that Chris was most likely a woman.

But that's nothing. He'd seen dwarves who were skilled in shapeshifting magic before, like Lily.

It's a kind of magic that can completely alter the body's structure.

A blinding light shone from the sky above, clearly indicating that this was the eighteenth floor.

After resting, Liang Yue and the others headed to Rivera, the town on the eighteenth floor.

Because this town was built illegally by adventurers, the guild ordered its rectification and demolished it dozens or even hundreds of times.

However, after each demolition, adventurers would illegally rebuild the place again.

Fortunately, the guild stopped paying attention to it afterward.

Liang Yue and her group arrived in Rivera, and Iglin went around asking people in the town.

They had a very poor impression of the houses, which were simply assembled from crude wooden planks.

However, it's clear that this is practically the only place in the dungeon where you can get supplies.

Therefore, despite their reluctance, they still had to buy supplies and make repairs here.

Eglin approached the innkeeper and asked, "We need to stay at the inn. How much do you want?"

"We're full, let's go to the next one."

Nina and the others looked at each other, disappointed, but still left.

I asked several more people after that, and they all said the same thing.

Iglin's face turned very ugly.

Nina thought for a moment and then approached the next hotel owner. "Hello, we'd like to stay here. What's the price?"

"Five hundred thousand falies for one room per night!"

"How many?"

Nina was clearly stunned; that was 500,000 falies.

What is this boss thinking?
Although these students in the school district didn't have much contact with Orario, they still had some understanding of the prices here and the income of town residents.

"I remember that the townspeople here, even factory workers or dockworkers, only earned a thousand falies a day."

Isn't this price too high?

"The past is the past, the present is the present. If you can't afford it, get out!"

Iglin's face turned ferocious, and he was so angry that he almost went up and attacked.

The innkeeper looked at Iglin smugly and said, "Oh dear, these young noblemen from the school district are about to start a fight."

The boss is going to get beaten to death!

Hearing this, Iglin and the others became even angrier. But it was clear that they couldn't take action now.

Adventurers from the vicinity of Rivera gathered around at this moment.

Clearly, if they were to actually fight, Iglin and his men would be at a disadvantage.

Liang Yue sighed, "Let's go, they don't welcome us."

Nina and the others nodded; their social experience was still far too lacking.

After everyone had left Rivera, Iglin roared at the sky, "I'm so angry! Those guys are a bunch of thugs!"

Liang Yue began to explain to Nina and the others, "In my opinion, there are two reasons for the conflict between the school district and the adventurers of Orario. The first is our identity; basically, each of us is a student of the highest academy."

This is too much of an eyesore for those grassroots adventurers who have nothing to offer but their lives.

Eglin slammed his fist on the ground, gritting his teeth. "The problem is, my grades aren't good either! It's infuriating!"

Nina looked at Liang Yue and asked in surprise, "Is this how adventurers see us?"

Liang Yue nodded, "Besides that, there's also the fact that the students in the school district have an overly strong sense of morality and justice."

There's nothing inherently wrong with that, but demanding that others meet the same standards is unreasonable.

"They were wrong to begin with! For example, that bastard, heartless boss, he actually dared to ask for 500,000 fares per room!"

Why? "

Liang Yue sighed, "Adventurers are basically always in combat. Unless their main interests are threatened, they shouldn't worry about so much."

Then Liang Yue's gaze swept over everyone present, "Also, everyone here is too bookish."

If someone is your enemy, are you prepared to kill them?

"Murder? Isn't that a bit too serious? And isn't murder a crime?"

Liang Yue drew her weapon and planted it in the ground. "In this world, strength reigns supreme."

If you have the power to be an enemy of the world, then you can do whatever you want.

If those adventurers really touch their sore spot, then kill them all.

If a direct confrontation doesn't work, use poison. If your strength isn't enough, work hard to level up.

Adventurers can't be on guard 24/7, keeping a list of everyone who's offended them and then figuring out how to kill them.

Nina looked horrified, as if she was seeing Liang Yue for the first time.

"Gig, isn't what you're saying a bit too dark?"

"So my meaning is clear: either swallow your anger and forget about it."

Alternatively, find an opportunity to kill the other party completely.

Instead of being like you are now, angry but too afraid to step in.

Liang Yue rummaged through her backpack and took out a small package.

"These are the camping supplies I prepared in advance: fishing line, fire starter, seasonings, etc."

Afterwards, Liang Yue led everyone to a lake near the Great Forest.

Under Liang Yue's arrangement, everyone received their own task.

Liang Yue then took out a fishing line tied with a tree branch and started fishing, using earthworms dug out from the edge of the lake as bait.

Earthworms are usually found in the damp soil on both sides of the river.

However, due to the special environment of the underground city, the earthworms here look rather strange, but their soft bodies and protein-rich functions remain unchanged.

When food is scarce, roasting earthworms is an option to consider.

However, considering Nina and the others' current condition, Liang Yue still did not let them eat such things.

After that, Liang Yue was in charge of grilling the fish, while the others were responsible for finding dry firewood.

After everyone else had fallen asleep, Liang Yue got up and walked deeper into the forest.

"Come out, who are you?"

"Liang Yue, how was your experience leading the students from the school district through the underground city?"

"So it was Fels. It seems Hermes or Badr told you about my situation."

Fels deactivated his invisibility device, still wearing a cloak that covered his entire body.

Even its face was covered by a mask. It took the mask off, looked at Liang Yue, and then put it back on.

"Actually, it was Leon who notified me, but it wasn't far off. This unusual situation is quite large, and with Leon's intelligence, I came to check it out."

"Then how did you get here? I remember the passage on the fifteenth floor was blocked."

Could it be?

"That's right, it's a man-made maze."

Liang Yue had originally planned to have Leiqi and the others use the artificial maze, but later gave up on that idea.

The entrance to the man-made maze is not suitable for high-profile publicity, and currently only Loki's Familia and Freya's former subordinates are using it.

As for the other clans, there are basically very few adventurers above level 4.

So basically, it's equivalent to the forces of only three clans being used regularly.

Fels began to explain the current situation to Liang Yue: "The current situation is that, apart from the third class, all the trapped students have been rescued by Leon."

As for the other adventurers, I knocked them unconscious and hid them inside the man-made maze.

Liang Yue, I'm sorry, students in the school district cannot navigate the man-made maze.

Liang Yue nodded in understanding; this must have been a decision made by Fels and his group after some consideration.

Liang Yue expressed her understanding.

Afterwards, Liang Yue returned to the campsite because there wasn't even a basic tent.

So Liang Yue and the others simply used weapons to dig some drainage ditches, and then sprinkled some wood ash and insect repellent materials.

Afterwards, everyone rested in the central area of ​​the forest, within the coverage area of ​​the campfire.

The insect repellent materials that Liang Yue purchased were very effective; burning them in the campfire or sprinkling them around the area provided excellent insect repellent properties.

After returning to camp, Nina came over.

"Gig, why aren't you asleep?"

Liang Yue glanced at Nina, who looked somewhat bewildered, and figured that the other woman had just woken up.

"I went out for a short while during my patrol to check if there was any danger around."

"That's it."

Nina waved to Liang Yue, and the two moved a little distance away from the campfire.

"Actually, I really envy you, Liang Yue. You and everyone else have clear goals, while I've been stuck in the same place."

Rachel wants to create a kingdom of dark elves, but it is clearly a very slim chance.

Chris wants to become a knight of the empire and achieve even greater feats than the hero Finn.

Iglin, on the other hand, wanted to become a blacksmith. To become a blacksmith even better than Tsubaki.

"Only I can't find any target..."

Upon hearing Nina's words, Liang Yue realized that Nina had been following in Eina's footsteps all along.

Eina studied synthetic theology, mastered sacred writing, and was admitted to the Guild.

No matter what Nina did, she couldn't learn Syntheology well enough to master the sacred texts, and she could only get a C grade in the guild's recruitment exam.

This left Nina feeling extremely frustrated.

"Nina, everyone is born with different talents. Just do what you are good at and what you like, and that's enough."

Iglin and the others are able to maintain their strong survival ability precisely because of your healing abilities.

This is all thanks to you.

"Thank you."

Liang Yue wasn't very good at comforting people.

It was clear that it would take some time for the underground passages to return to normal, so Liang Yue decided to take them to a deeper level.

Based on their current abilities, as long as they coordinate well, they can go very far.

After waking up, Iglin and the others looked at Liang Yue excitedly, "Jiglin, what did you say? We're going to keep going?"

"That's great!"

Iglin and his companions felt no fear, but rather were filled with anticipation.
