If he were to force himself to go deeper with Xu Mu now and establish a deeper friendship during the battle, he might be able to leave a good impression on Xu Mu and make it possible for him to be recruited as a retainer in the future.

"Let's just take a risk!"

I thought so in my mind, but my body did not move.

Sicily calmed down and analyzed, "No, I don't need to rush... There's an old saying in Li State, 'A good bird chooses a tree to roost in.' I don't need to take risks. If the Blue Bandit is a smart man, he will know that I am a better choice than Xifeng. And-"

Besides, it's too dangerous!

This is an abyss-level maze, and you might die if you venture forward!

Zephyr had nothing, and he had the need to take risks;

Sicily is already the first in line of succession, so he needs to protect himself even more.

"Here... let's back off for now. If all goes well, after we get out, use sincerity, courage, and patience to slowly influence the Blue Bandits!"

Thinking this, Sicily closed his eyes and did not move.

But the next moment——

"Sicily, how could you have such a cowardly thought! Besides... the safest place right now is clearly with the Blue Bandit, right?"

Sicily suddenly realized!

With a look of determination on his face, he waved his hand and said, "Everyone, we can't let Mr. Canglan advance alone! The wounded stay behind, and everyone else follow me. Even though our forces are very weak, we must at least stand by Canglan's side!"

PS: My big bookshelf...is that the end of it...

Chapter 173 #170 Your weight?

Whirling Abyss, second level.

Xu Mu looked at the surrounding environment and found that this was an empty floating platform with an endless abyss underneath. If he fell, it would be difficult to survive without divine power.

At one end of the temple, there is a floating bridge that leads to an unknown destination.

As soon as he saw this arrangement, Xu Mu understood what was going on.

The Whirling Abyss is a completely defensive maze. The mechanism of the second level is the same as that of the first level. The only difference is that the venue restrictions are more stringent.

After the battle begins, enemies will continuously attack from the other side of the floating bridge. Adventurers need to fight monsters on the bridge. If too many monsters are allowed into the platform, a penalty mechanism will be triggered.

See you.

Nothing special, just a little bit difficult.

"call."

"Hey?!"

A slight spatial vibration emerged, and Xifeng's figure emerged from mid-air.

After a scream, he fell to the ground in embarrassment.

"..."

Xu Mu looked at him speechlessly.

reasonable.

The Abyss-level maze is suitable for adventurers between levels 70 and 90. Xifeng is not even level 70 yet, so this maze is not friendly enough for him.

Perhaps he noticed Xu Mu's gaze. After hurriedly standing up, Xifeng coughed to cover up his embarrassment.

He looked around and asked, "Canglan, why do you want me to follow you? I think... with my abilities, I might not be able to help much."

Without even looking up, Xu Mu simply said, "It's safer to follow me."

"what?"

"Logically, the first floor won't be attacked again, but what if? What if more monsters appear? What are you going to do when I'm not here?"

what--

Xifeng felt warm inside. He laughed and rubbed his hands, saying, "Is that so? I thought...you admired my elder brother more than me."

Say what?

I don't appreciate either of you.

Xu Mu remained calm and said simply, "I don't even know Young Master Xi, so why would I admire him?"

That's right.

Xifeng looked around and asked, "Canglan, I haven't asked you yet! Why are you here?"

ha?

What are you talking about!

If I hadn't heard that you were in danger, would I have come here?

Xu Mu looked surprised and said, "What do you think? I was just sitting there enjoying my Krabby Patty, and suddenly I heard you were in trouble! Tell me, we're friends after all, how could I just stand there and watch you die?"

Ah yes!

So that’s it!

Xifeng let out a long sigh, feeling warm and fulfilled inside. "I see! Canglan, thank you so much!"

trivial.

Xu Mu was just about to say a few polite words when more spatial fluctuations emerged. Xu Mu looked up and found that Sicily appeared with a few people!

The moment the group landed, the platform suddenly sank a little, which scared Xu Mu.

Sicily smiled when she saw Xu Mu: "Mr. Canglan, we are here to help you!"

what……

Not really necessary.

Xu Mu nodded and said, "Okay! Master Xi, I admire your bravery and integrity! Now that you're here, let's fight side by side!"

There are five people coming.

In the first wave of battle on the first level, most of the people brought by Sicily were seriously injured.

The wounded were undoubtedly unable to participate in the operation, so Sicily left two recovery warlocks, Ruby and Sapphire, to take care of them, and asked several guards to be responsible for their safety.

After all these trips, only five people reached the second floor.

Sicily, the legendary swordsman Wang Jiao, and the brave Nolan, Mint and Chi Jinlian.

Nolan's face was firm and he said nothing.

Instead, Chi Jinlian stepped forward and said, "Mr. Canglan, we are here to help you too!"

She is laughing.

It was a bright smile, with a hint of flattery, generous yet shy.

Xu Mu looked at this smile and felt a wave of strangeness.

what happened?

Is it because you didn’t recognize that the person in front of you was Xu Mu?

It turns out that this woman can still show such a sweet face with a girlish feeling?

No.

More than just a smile.

At this moment, Chi Jinlian's temperament changed drastically. The usual arrogance on her face disappeared without a trace. Her shoulders dropped and her back slightly bent.

The corners of her mouth curled up in a way that revealed sweetness rather than mockery;

There was no longer any disturbing sharpness in her pupils, only prying and tenderness.

Chi Jinlian transformed herself silently through micro-expressions and details!

If Xu Mu had met the woman in front of him for the first time, he would not have labeled Chi Jinlian with words like "willful", "rude", or "arrogant", but would have thought she was very cute.

"This woman..."

So strong.

Chi Jinlian just gave a simple greeting, but Xu Mu felt extremely surprised and a little scared.

In his heart, he silently raised the level of the Red Gold Lotus by several levels.

Seeing Xu Mu's long silence, Chi Jinlian tilted her head and asked, "Mr. Canglan?"

"Oh……"

Xu Mu came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Welcome, welcome. There is strength in numbers. Miss, let us fight side by side!"

"Ok!"

Chi Jinlian nodded heavily, her eyes sparkling: "It's my honor, Mr. Canglan!"

Huh?

Are you really Chi Jinlian?

Sober!

"Adventurer! Welcome to the second floor!"

Just at this moment, a voice that was neither male nor female sounded.

Xu Mu carefully distinguished it and found that it was different from the ethereal voice in the first layer...

The one speaking now is probably the leader of this maze.

"The rules of the second level are roughly the same as the first. You need to kill all the attacking puppets to open the way to the next level! However, I need to remind you that the load-bearing capacity of the temple beneath your feet is very limited! When the weight of the puppets and you exceeds one ton, the platform will collapse! At that time-"

"Hey hey hey!"

The voice became sharper: "You will fall into the abyss! Not even the goddess can save you!"

"..."

"..."

Xu Mu and the woman in the black dress looked at each other, neither of them cared much.

Others were a little nervous.

The voice concluded, "As a benevolent leader, I'll give you a little extra hint! The puppets on the second floor come in two sizes: large and small. The large one weighs a whopping ten tons, while the small one weighs only three hundred kilograms. In five minutes, the puppet invasion officially begins!"

Five minutes, right?

"Clap clap."

Xu Mu clapped his hands and said to the crowd, "Everyone, the temple has a limited load-bearing capacity, and our weight must be included. Now, everyone, tell me your current weight."

Eh? !

The others didn't care, but Black Skirt, Mint and Chi Jinlian were slightly stunned, and looked a little reluctant.

The most panicked one was Chi Jinlian.

She raised a hand and said, "Mr. Canglan... do you want me to tell you my weight?"

Xu Mu turned to look at her: "Are there any difficulties?"

"Ah, it's not that there's any difficulty, it's just..."

Chi Jinlian stuttered.

Humph--

Xu Mu smiled and pointed at Xifeng and asked, "Master Xifeng, how much do you weigh? Tell me loudly!"
