The Fourth Calamity: Starting with Dungeon Slimes

Players were naturally very happy to receive the main quest.

However, after the initial excitement, everyone's eyes immediately turned to the advancing salted fish.

"Wait, why are you looking at me like that?" The attacking salted fish asked, looking puzzled.

"Salted Fish, I remember you said before that we were the ones who actively developed the game's quests. What's going on now? It seems like we don't need to take the initiative anymore."

"They swore they were professionals, and this is all they amounted to?"

"Never lost in theory, never won in practice."

Upon hearing the teasing from the crowd, the salted fish immediately became unhappy.

It has to be said that the sudden release of the main quest caught him completely off guard.

In Salty Fish's original imagination, it should have been that they went to Lilith to negotiate, and that's how the main quest came about.

Who could have imagined it would turn out like this?

However, since he had already shown off his 13 skills, the salted fish naturally had to save face.

"What do you know!"

"This was within my expectations."

"And just like I said before, you need to broaden your perspective to play this game."

"The NPC has released a main quest; is it related to Lilith?"

"Will this prevent us from talking to Lilith?"

The crowd naturally didn't buy into the salted fish's attempt to save face.

"Your whole body is limp right now, only your mouth is still hard. Guess why the NPC suddenly issued a quest?"

"Guess what the NPC talked about with Lilith before issuing the quest?"

"I estimate that it's highly likely that the NPCs and Lilith reached some kind of agreement."

"Simply put, they've already reached an agreement; you can go over and finalize it now."

Upon hearing this, Salty Fish immediately objected, "What do you mean they've reached an agreement?"

"Haven't you heard of 'two birds with one stone'? They've reached an agreement, so can't we discuss things further based on what they've already agreed upon?"

"Easier said than done! Why don't you go and negotiate?"

"Fine, I'll go!"

..........

To be honest, the attacking salted fish deeply regretted it.

Especially when he looked at the other players watching from a distance behind him.

I was just pushed out by these guys without really understanding what was going on.

"I'm numb. Why am I making up these random thoughts?"

The advancing salted fish could already imagine how they would mock him if he failed to reach an agreement and went back.

Especially since they might post this on the forum, which would completely ruin my reputation as a strategy guide creator.

As for his initial idea of ​​holding a knife to Lilith's neck and talking to her, Salty Fish doesn't dare to do that now.

The reason is simple: Lilith has clearly reached some kind of cooperation with Jiang Chen, and if he were to threaten Lilith at this time, he would most likely get into trouble.

I took a deep breath.

"I'm numb, what's there to be afraid of!"

Thinking about the attacking salted fish, he hopped and skipped towards Lilith, who was sitting by the cold pond, seemingly lost in thought.

"Pat...pat...pat..." A familiar sound came from afar, interrupting Lilith's thoughts.

Looking back, I saw a little cat hopping and skipping towards me.

"What's wrong?" Lilith was a little curious as to why this Pata had come to her place.

Under her questioning gaze, the attacking salted fish leaped to her side.

Then the attacking salted fish rummaged around for a while and then took out a strange-looking fruit.

"Here you go, it's delicious."

"For me?" Lilith asked, somewhat intrigued.

"Here you go. I noticed you haven't eaten anything since you've been here for so long, so I brought you this."

The attacking salted fish's voice is full of adorable clumsiness, like a kind-hearted, naive little fish.

This significantly increased Lilith's positive impression of Pata, "So not all Pata are as awful as Jiang Chen."

"Thank you." Lilith took the fruit and took a bite, the sweet and sour taste exploding in her mouth.

Surprisingly delicious.

"Sister, are you injured?" Seeing the wounds on Lilith's body, the aggressive salty fish began his performance.

Lilith nodded in agreement.

"Did you run into bad people? My mother has always told me that Little Pata must be careful when she goes out. She should not eat candy given to her by strangers, and she should run home immediately if she encounters bad people."

It has to be said that Pata's adorable appearance, combined with Salty Fish's deliberately pitiful tone, and the fact that Salty Fish knew Lilith was seriously injured and had escaped here alone to be rescued, made it all very interesting.

Bringing up the topic of parents at this time is still very hurtful.

Hearing what the attacking salted fish said, Lilith's expression became somewhat dazed. "Mother..."

"I never met my real mother when I was a child. I was adopted by a kind succubus couple... Life at home was very difficult, but they treated me very well."

"I was only recently found by my real father and taken back. After I got back, I learned that my mother had died at the hands of the Nightmare Clan when I was very young."

"I have a younger sister who was switched at birth."

As she spoke of her own experience, resentment flashed in Lilith's eyes.

"Perhaps it was because my arrival made her feel that her position was threatened, so she always tried to frame me."

"Every time, no matter how I explained, my father refused to believe me."

"Actually, I didn't feel any real warmth at home."

Upon hearing Lilith's account, the attacking salted fish displayed the following expression.

(*￣︿￣)

"No, why do these succubi also like this real and fake 'thousand gold' set?"

Salty Fish, who frequently watches short dramas, said he was completely unmoved and even wanted to skip the plot.

However, it's clear that this game doesn't seem to have an option to skip the cutscenes.

"Sigh, yet another game where skipping the plot is like skipping life."

Just as the attacking salted fish was speechless, Lilith's rambling continued.

"Although my father doesn't care much about me at home, he is still my father, and I want to prove myself to him."

"But because of that sister, it seemed like everything I did was in vain. In the end, she even stole my fiancé and conspired with him to frame me."

"If I hadn't run fast and accidentally entered the ancient teleportation magic circle, I might have been killed by the people they sent."

"But they weren't satisfied with taking everything from me. They even wanted to conspire to kill my father. What they wanted was the entire succubus race."

"So... I have to go back! I must go back as soon as possible! I have to stop their plot!"

As she spoke, Lilith's eyes hardened.

Perhaps these things had been weighing on Lilith's mind for a long time, and saying them all at once made her feel much better.

"So, Patta, you'll help me, right?"

Upon hearing this, the salted fish sounded somewhat excited.

"Of course I'll help!"

However, Lilith didn't seem to notice the change in Salty Fish's tone.

He had long since transformed from an innocent and adorable boy into... a sinister...

"So, Miss Lilith, you don't want your father to be murdered because you went home too late, do you...?"
