The Fourth Calamity: Starting with Dungeon Slimes

Although Lilith is silly and has no money, and her strength is no match for him now.

However, the most important thing about Lilith to Jiang Chen is that she possesses a lot of knowledge that Jiang Chen does not know.

Whenever I have a question I don't understand, I can always find the answer by asking her.

It was only at times like this that Jiang Chen remembered that Lilith was, after all, a well-informed young lady.

"I'm numb... Where did this thing go?"

Jiang Chen looked around with some confusion, and soon spotted that familiar figure.

Meanwhile, on the players' side, a group of players were asking each other what Salty Fish had just talked about with them.

As for the advancing salted fish, it seems he's become addicted to bragging and has started making up stories again.

Lilith was behind the salted fish.

Just as the salted fish and the others were boasting and having fun.

"Salted Fish, you wouldn't want others to know about your conversation with the leader, would you?"

Lilith moved closer to the salted fish and whispered.

As Lilith finished speaking, even the boastful Salty Fish was taken aback.

He subconsciously glanced at Lilith beside him, who had a mischievous grin on her face.

At this moment, Lilith stared at the salted fish like a little devil who had succeeded in her wicked scheme.

"Little salted fish, you never thought this day would come, did you? I still remember how you pretended to be innocent and tricked me into signing the contract."

Upon hearing what Lilith said, Salty Fish felt a chill run down its spine.

"She still remembers something that happened so long ago!"

This wretched succubus is terrifying.

However, just as Lilith was about to say something, Jiang Chen pulled her away.

As he watched Lilith's departing figure, Salty Fish seemed to be deep in thought.

"This succubus knows far too much..."

"Looks like I need to find a way to shut her up."

........

Meanwhile, on Jiang Chen's side...

"Hey, hey... Jiang Chen, what are you doing? I finally got a chance, why did you pull me away?"

Lilith, who was following behind Jiang Chen, pouted and looked dissatisfied.

He had originally planned to exact revenge on the previous incident, but Jiang Chen pulled him away before he could even begin.

Looking at Lilith behind him....

"Sigh...you're so naive. I might as well call you Wu Xie from now on."

"Didn't you see the look in Salty Fish's eyes just now? Let me tell you, if nothing unexpected happens, he's probably plotting how to shut you up forever, and you're still acting all cocky."

Upon hearing this, Lilith's expression stiffened. "No...no way...he's a very good Pata...it shouldn't be."

Jiang Chen snorted in response.

"Probably not. You've probably forgotten how ruthlessly they used to blow people up with magic crystals on the battlefield."

"Do you think if you really push him too far, he might explode at you?"

Upon hearing this, Lilith's face turned deathly pale.

Yes, how could I have forgotten something so important?

After the war ended, I have been in contact with these little Pata during this period.

Although these little Pata gave me the impression of being cunning merchants, they were quite ruthless on the battlefield.

At this moment, Lily completely panicked.

"Jiang...Jiang Chen...you must help me."

"I'll definitely help, Lilith. Don't worry, I'll go and persuade Salty Fish in a bit, but don't go there to cause trouble anymore, or you won't even know how you'll get burned."

Jiang Chen knew, of course, that the players would at most teach Lilith a lesson, after all, she was an NPC.

But Jiang Chen wanted to scare Lilith on purpose.

"Something's not right, Jiang Chen! Something's really off about you!"

"Jiang Chen, are you trying to trick me again?"

Before Jiang Chen could even use this as leverage to ask Lilith a question, Lilith realized something was wrong.

"What are you talking about? How did I betray you? Have you forgotten what I told you before? We're comrades-in-arms, don't you understand camaraderie?"

Lilith looked on with suspicion.

"But none of that matters. What matters is that I helped you deal with the salted fish. At least I put in the effort. Everything is about an equal exchange."

"What do you want now?" Lilith became increasingly wary.

"By the way, do you know anything about some special items that are considered essences?"

"Special items of the essence type?" Lilith suddenly realized something.

"Impossible, Jiang Chen, I'm telling you, absolutely impossible! No matter what you say, I will never give you something like this!"

Lilith's voice rose several octaves, completely losing its usual soft and gentle quality.

"No, is this another puncture of the lung tube?"

"Wait...why did I say 'again'?"

But none of that matters. Judging from Lilith's reaction, Jiang Chen immediately understood that this girl definitely knew something.

"Why are you so agitated?"

As he spoke, Jiang Chen quickly found a chair and had Lilith sit down.

Then she took out the juice she had bought from the player that morning that she hadn't finished.

"Drink this... I bought it especially for you."

Seeing Jiang Chen's unusual behavior, Lilith became even more wary.

"No way! Jiang Chen, don't think I don't know what you're up to."

"The Dark Essence of our Succubus race is absolutely not something I can give you, and it's guarded by my father; I have no chance of obtaining it!"

"Essence of Darkness?" Jiang Chen keenly caught the word.

It's clear that this thing is very important to the succubus race.

This gave Jiang Chen quite a headache.

Just from hearing Lilith say that, Jiang Chen knew that this thing was extremely rare and would probably be treated like a treasure no matter where it was.

Its rarity is comparable to that of a divine artifact; otherwise, Lilith would never have reacted this way.

"Tsk...see, you're in such a hurry again." After figuring this out, Jiang Chen decided to ask for more useful information.

"I didn't say I wanted yours."

"Besides, you know what kind of person I am. I value fairness the most, especially fair trades, and these trades are based on mutual consent. Look how unwilling you are now, do you think I can force you to trade? Obviously not."

However, it was clear that Lilith was still watching Jiang Chen with a wary expression, and she wouldn't believe nine out of ten things he said.

As for why she was so wary, Lilith said that people who have been scammed for a long time will become like this.

"Well, I wanted to ask you what this thing is, how it's formed, and where to look for it?"

"So that's what you wanted!" Lilith instantly grasped the key point.

"Sigh..." Jiang Chen sighed as he saw Lilith's lack of trust.

"I had my heart set on the bright moon, but alas... Lilith, we've worked together for so long, but I never expected you to see me this way."

"But I don't mind, because I'm a generous person. Don't worry, I won't take the one you added; I can find it myself."

"Of course, I know you don't trust me, but that doesn't matter. I will find a way to prove myself and make you trust me completely."

"So Lilith, can you trust me now?"

Jiang Chen asked again with genuine concern.

"Believe...believe it now..." Lilith stammered, looking at the fire spirit beside her self-destructing with a crack, the blood-red scythe held to her neck, and the magic crystals piled up under her seat.

"That's right, now I'll ask you questions and you can answer them."
