The Fourth Calamity: Starting with Dungeon Slimes

These players are despicable; they're eyeing the wallets of these two races every day.

Jiang Chen allocated a sum of money to himself, so in addition to the rewards given by the players, Lilith would also give them an extra portion as a reward.

Lilith is not like Jiang Chen, that wicked man who only knows how to exploit his subordinates.

Then, in order to swindle these small sums of money, this group of pats used every method imaginable.

These Pata always like to get their hands on novel things, such as candied hawthorns, which are a favorite of the Bloodthirsty Lizard Clan.

Another thing is the roasted meat that the demon wolf tribe especially loves to eat. In fact, Lilith really wanted to roast meat for these demon wolves herself.

She wanted to stop these bad Pata from making money, but it was clear she didn't have the ability to do so, and she herself sometimes bought food to eat.

But I must say, it actually smells quite good.

Lilith quickly shook her head, dismissing the terrible idea.

Then Lilith's face fell again, looking mournful.

"I don't know what those Pata added, but even I couldn't resist, let alone those clueless little wolf cubs."

Lilith couldn't help but sigh at this.

"I have to say, how come these little Pata know so many things? And the other day I heard them talking about building some kind of high-end residential community, what's that?"

Although she didn't know what it was, Lilith knew that her wallet was probably going to suffer again.

Lilith sighed, feeling somewhat helpless.

However, just as Lilith was thinking this, a commotion suddenly came from afar.

Then, the charging saltwater fish arrived, accompanied by a small skeleton.

"Huh? What's with the skeletons? And it's that intelligent skeleton, no less?"

As she spoke, Lilith joined the other players in curiously examining the surroundings.

Meanwhile, the salted fish are on the offensive.

"Look, Brother Skeleton, this is the soap you used to wash your body. We are exquisite skeletons, of course we should enjoy life."

"What is that? Skeleton Bro, you're asking what that is over there? That stuff is a really good drink, but you're just a skeleton, you can't drink it."

"Hmm? You want to give it a try?"

"Okay, let's give it a try. This one's on you!"

"Wow, Skeleton Bro, you're so awesome! Can you tell me how a skeleton like you drinks a beverage without spilling a drop? What's the principle behind it? I don't understand!"

"You asked me what I just gave him? This stuff is currency. Let me tell you, Skeleton Brother, with currency, you can buy whatever you want here."

"Let me explain the uses of this currency to you in detail. Also, let me tell you about our upcoming self-built housing plan, which includes a villa project that I think would be perfect for you."

As he spoke, the salted fish led the little skeleton to the other side and began to explain things to it in detail.

Lilith rolled her eyes at this.

"These little Pata, they don't even want to let the skeletons go."

For some reason, seeing this group of sluts made Lilith associate them with those greedy human imperial merchants outside.

Exactly the same, the same snobbish face.

However, just as Lilith was still complaining, a peculiar magical fluctuation suddenly came.

Lilith was also taken aback.

Before Lilith could react, she noticed a crack appear on the little skeleton's body, and then the evolved salted fish was sucked in.

The sudden change left both Lilith and the players bewildered, clearly unsure of what had happened.

"Wait, what's going on? The little skeleton swallowed the salted fish?"

"That can't be right, can it? Isn't this guy on friendly terms with salted fish?"

"Holy crap! Salty Fish isn't dead. He just spoke in the channel, seemingly saying that he entered a strange space and encountered a strange person."

Hearing the whispers of the players, Lilith was a little confused. What was a channel?

Another word that I don't understand at all?

However, Lilith was relieved to find out that the salted fish was not dead.

"So what kind of space was it?"

Lilith was also somewhat curious about this.

Meanwhile, on the salted fish's side...

Salty Fish, who had been inexplicably dragged here, was also a bit confused and didn't understand what had happened.

However, at this moment, the salted fish instinctively realized that the situation seemed to be in trouble.

Standing before him was a being exuding an aura of death and decay, with only one eye gleaming with an eerie light, and one hand that was even an iron hook.

It looks very uncomfortable.

He subconsciously swallowed.

"Who...who are you?"

"Me?" a hoarse voice came.

"I have many names, but if I had to pick my favorite, it would be Velen."

"I am the god who governs death, secrets, and knowledge."

Upon hearing Viren's explanation, Salty Fish felt a sudden choking sensation.

"Gods!!"

The salted fish was startled.

The thing in front of me is actually a god!

Why did this deity approach me? Did it recognize my extraordinary talent and intend to give me some kind of opportunity?

The salted fish thought to itself.

However, things clearly did not go as he had hoped.

"Of course, who I am is not important."

"You are special. You are just a weak Pata, but you killed a high-ranking succubus."

"This is extremely rare."

"You've been watching me all this time?" Salty Fish felt a little flattered. It seemed that his heroic performance had caught the attention of the gods.

Indeed, gold shines wherever it is; the gods will surely reward him next, allowing him to soar to great heights.

But just as Salty Fish was still thinking about this, Velen's voice came again.

"I noticed you through that little skeleton."

"You are indeed a very special Pata, possessing intelligence that is no less than that of humans."

"Little Skeleton? You mean Brother Skeleton?"

"Oh? That's what you call it... But the name doesn't matter. I acknowledge your potential. I now grant you the opportunity to become my follower, to travel among the earth and recruit more followers for me."

Upon hearing this, Salty Fish was immediately overjoyed, for this meant he would be given a golden mission.

"I'd go through fire and water for you!"

Salted fish immediately responded to this.

"Very well... In that case, drink it, and you will forget your past and become my loyal servant!"

The next moment, a bottle of purple liquid appeared in Velen's hand.

Upon seeing this, the salted fish's eyes lit up. Based on its guess, it was highly likely to be something good.

Without saying a word, Salty Fish took the bottle and gulped it down in one go.

Seeing that the salted fish was so sensible, Velen nodded in satisfaction.

"From now on, your mission is..."

However, before Velen could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Salty Fish.

"Um, are there any other rewards?"

"Hmm?" Velen's gaze also sharpened.

"Do you remember what just happened?"

"I remember," the salted fish replied.

It's clear that the salted fish didn't realize the seriousness of the situation.
