The Shota Priest of the Big Sister Adventure Group

"It should be correct. His height and appearance are the same as described." Another person took over the conversation, with a little more certainty in his tone. His eyes were slightly squinting, tightly locked on Sodros, as if he wanted to engrave every detail of him into his mind.

"But he has the support of the Duke, and it seems that he has the elves behind him. Do we really want to take action against him?" The third person was obviously worried, and there was a hint of trembling in his voice. He looked around, afraid that his words would be heard by others.

"Humph, as long as God descends here, why should we be afraid of the elves and the Duke?" The leading man sneered, interrupting his companions' concerns. He gently shook the wine glass in his hand, his eyes flashing with confidence and determination, "As long as we act according to the plan, we will definitely complete the task. By then, the generous reward will be in our pockets."

The four exchanged glances again. No need to say more, the tacit understanding between them was enough to support them to complete the next task. They continued to pretend to drink and occasionally whispered a few words, but more attention was still on Sodros below. They knew that the wait at this moment might be long and tormenting, but as long as they could seize that fleeting opportunity, they could rewrite their own destiny.

But they did not leave, because there was still a key person who had not arrived.

And Sodros was oblivious to all this. He was still immersed in his own world, continuing to stroll on the streets, watching the prosperity and hustle and bustle of the city.

Soon, Sodros walked to the corner of the street and left the restaurant's view.

The four people sitting there continued to whisper, sip wine, and eat a bite of meat from time to time, waiting for the latecomer.

The sun slowly sank, and the shadow in one corner of the restaurant gradually lengthened, covering the mottled marks on the wooden table. One of the four people looked a little anxious, and looked up at the entrance of the restaurant from time to time, his eyes full of dissatisfaction with the upcoming latecomers. He gently put down the wine glass in his hand, making a slight clinking sound, breaking the already dull atmosphere around him.

"This guy, why hasn't he come yet? Didn't we agree on this time? It's really annoying to wait." There was a bit of dissatisfaction in his words. Although his voice was low, it was loud enough for his deskmate to hear clearly. His fingers tapped unconsciously on the table, the rhythm getting faster and faster, just like the irritation that was gradually accumulating in his heart.

The leading man frowned slightly when he heard this, and withdrew his gaze from the direction where Sodros disappeared and turned to his companion who was speaking.

He did not refute directly, but said in a calm tone: "Diego, be patient. We are doing a big thing. We can't lose our composure because of a temporary wait. Remember, whether it is an opponent or an ally, we should give due respect."

Diego heard this, although he was unwilling, he could only nod silently and swallow his dissatisfaction.

He picked up the glass again, trying to calm the waves in his heart with the wine, but his eyes still glanced at the door from time to time.

Just then, a handsome man walked up the stairs of the restaurant, exuding an unusual aura.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a man in ordinary linen clothes, with his face hidden in his hair, slowly walking in.

This was the Austin they were waiting for. He walked at a leisurely pace, as if he didn't care about being late.

"Sorry, everyone. We were delayed on the road." Austin's voice was magnetic and a little provocative. He gently pushed the hair away from his eyes, revealing a well-defined face with a faint smile on the corners of his mouth.

Seeing this, the leading man stood up and greeted him, with a somewhat polite and respectful tone: "Lord Austin, it's great that you can come. We have been waiting for a long time. I believe that your arrival will make our plan more perfect."

Austin nodded slightly, his eyes swept over the four people, and finally stopped at the leading man: "You're welcome. Since I have agreed to cooperate, I will naturally do my best. However, I heard that you have some doubts about the goal this time?"

The leading man's face changed slightly when he heard this, but he quickly regained his composure: "Yes, Lord Ba Ding of the Osling Umbrella. Sodros is not an ordinary person. Not only does he have the Duke's protection, he is also related to the elves. We are worried that if the operation fails, the consequences will be disastrous."

Austin smiled slightly, and that smile seemed to contain some deep meaning: "I understand your concerns, but because of this, our cooperation is particularly important. I have a way to ensure the smooth progress of the operation, as long as you follow the instructions."

As he spoke, he slowly walked to the table, pulled out a chair and sat down, his movements graceful and calm. He looked around at the dishes and beer on the table and shook his head slightly: "It seems that you have already enjoyed your dinner in advance, but it doesn't matter, I'm a little hungry too."

As he spoke, he picked up a piece of barbecue, took a bite, and savored it carefully.

"Regarding Sodros," Austin put down the barbecue and his tone became serious, "He is indeed a troublesome character. He himself doesn't have much to fight. The trouble is his teammates and his backers!"

"Now you know that Sodros will go alone, which actually makes it very convenient for us to do things."

"When the time comes, you just need to find a time to kidnap the other party. We will take care of the rest for you!"

"Also, when you do this, you must..."

His words were concise and powerful, like a sharp sword pointing directly at people's hearts. The four of them were shocked when they heard his words, and their eyes met with each other, as if they had reached some kind of consensus in silence.

"Master Austin is right," the leading man spoke first, "Since we have chosen this path, there is no turning back. Next, please plan our actions in detail."

With Austin's joining, the dissatisfaction and irritability caused by waiting gradually dissipated, and were replaced by an unprecedented firmness and determination.

The four of them sat around the table and began to discuss the next plan in detail. Every detail was repeatedly scrutinized in an effort to make it foolproof. Outside, the night fell quietly without them noticing, casting a veil of mystery over the upcoming show.

After an unknown amount of time, Austin left the tavern, leaving the four people behind.

"Ah! My blood is boiling, I can't wait to catch Sodros and sacrifice him!"

A man's hands and feet were shaking, as if he was trying hard to endure something.

"Hey! I told you to behave yourself out there, or you'll die!"

"Ming...understand!"

The leading man looked up at the sky which had turned completely dark, with a smile on his face.

He looked down at his palm, which had a special symbol on it.

That is the summoning mark of the demon world!

As long as he has the right sacrifices, he is confident that he can summon the gods and become the ruler of the new world!

Chapter 30: Preparation before entering the th floor

Another period of time passed.

The levels of several people have been fully upgraded to level 30.

To correct, Sodros and Margaret have reached level 30, the little fox is level 28, and Audrey is level 31.

Their goal today is to advance to the 30th floor, start opening up new battlefields, and meet new challenges!

Now, four people are sitting in the cafe, discussing countermeasures for the 4th floor.

Starting from this level, there is no detailed guide, because on the 30th level and above, there is a chance of high-quality equipment, advanced materials, and golden epic equipment appearing.

Therefore, these various guides are no longer made public. There are only the most basic maps, which at most mark the safe areas inside. The safe areas will not be told to you, and you can only explore them by yourself.

The guidebook describes the 30th-floor dungeon as follows.

[When you step into the 30th floor, you are standing on a tall platform. Here, you will find a ruined royal city. The air is filled with a depressing atmosphere, and even breathing becomes heavy.

The outer perimeter of the royal city is a ruined wall. They once towered into the sky, hundreds of meters high, and you couldn't see the end at a glance! Guarding the peace and glory of this land, it is hard to imagine how the walls here were built. It can be described as a great miracle.

But today, most of these walls have collapsed, with only a few sections still barely standing and connected to each other.

There were cracks crisscrossing the walls, some of which even split directly into cliffs a hundred meters deep, which was daunting. If you fell down, you would definitely die! Under these cliffs, in addition to sharp debris and broken walls, there was also darkness and the unknown. I'm afraid there must be something powerful inside.

Passing through these dangerous walls, you will enter the interior of the royal city.

Only ruins remain of the once glorious buildings here. The roof of the palace has long disappeared, leaving only bare pillars supporting the crumbling walls, which seem set to collapse at any moment. On the walls, one can still vaguely make out the once exquisite carvings and murals, but the colors have long since faded.

The corridors and rooms are as complicated as a maze, and every road is full of unknowns and dangers. Some corridors are narrow and winding, only allowing one person to pass through, with towering walls on both sides that seem to be crushed at any time, while others are spacious and bright, but deadly traps or ferocious monsters may be hidden inside. Walking through these corridors, every step must be taken carefully, as the slightest mistake may lead to an irretrievable situation.

What's even more terrifying is that these unknown rooms often hide monsters that are ready to attack.

Most of these monsters are shadow demons, but in some places some monsters are as ferocious as wild beasts, and some have strange abilities that can make people fall into illusions or suffer fatal injuries without knowing it. They either lurk in dark corners waiting for prey to come, or suddenly rush out of a room and catch people off guard. Therefore, when exploring these rooms, you must not only be vigilant at all times, but also be prepared to deal with various emergencies.

Due to the long-term abandonment and destruction of the royal city, many of the originally clear routes have become blurred.

Collapsed buildings and blocked roads made the already complex terrain even more difficult to identify.

Fortunately, they can use maps to find the right path, but even so, they often get lost. Sometimes, they may find a shortcut that seems to lead to the top, but it is just a dead end at the end. Sometimes, they may go around in the same place but still can't find the exit. This uncertainty makes the whole exploration full of tension. 】

This 2-level strategy book, worth 30 silver coins, talks about so many things.

It's all descriptions of the 30th floor, plus safety reminders and a map.

The map is useful, as it marks several safe areas for rest.

But apart from these, there is nothing else. Whether this book is worth its value depends entirely on the individual. At least Sodros thinks it is too expensive and there are too few useful things!

But there is no way around it, after all, the dungeon strategy that follows is completely confidential.

Especially when it comes to random items, no one will tell you where they are, or how to find them, unless you have a very strong relationship with them.

The four of them each had a book. After reading it, Sodros looked at them and asked, "Now that everyone has finished reading, do you have anything to say? Even if it's just your opinion, that's fine."

"Well, let me talk first." Sodros looked old-fashioned. "First of all, we should be prepared for a long battle this time. According to the arrangement, we need to prepare three days of food for the first time, so we must prepare what we need. At the same time, the danger level is also very high. We must rest well. Setting traps has become the top priority. And..."

Sodros explained in great detail that these were the experiences he had summed up during his adventures and were very useful.

The next person to speak was Audrey. Her views were equally sophisticated, but similar to Sodros's, except that she had started her adventure earlier than Sodros, so what she said was basically the same.

Margaret had nothing to say, after all, the previous two people had already spoken.

As for the fox Rosaline, she had no opinion at all. She thought that she just needed to follow the main group.

After spending more than a month together, she had come to know the strength of this adventure group. Each and every one of them who went out was a top player, and they were definitely the best at the same level.

Especially Sodros, who looks like a priest, can become an archer priest who uses a bow and arrow, a heavy armor priest who wears a heavy armor suit, or a mage priest who uses various skills to attack like a mage...

It was outrageous, really outrageous. Rosalin knew that she had found a good partner!

No one on the Sodros ship continued to make suggestions, and then stood up and said, "Now that it's confirmed, we will gather at the entrance of the dungeon in an hour. Now those who need to buy something should go and buy some. After all, the next trip will be very long and may take several days."

"Then disband now!"

Following Sodros' order, the men separated.

Margaret left with Rosalyn; they had lived together, so they knew what was missing.

qqunAudrey and Sodros went directly to the dungeon and sat there, planning to find someone to inquire about the news on the 30th floor.

After all, both of them have space rings, and they usually prepare a lot of things to store them, so they don’t need to buy anything.

Chapter 0: The Dropped Key

About half an hour later, several people who had bought good things stepped into the 30th floor together.

Ba began to explore and conquer this dilapidated royal city.

The four people who had just come in were all very excited, as the location was always something to look forward to.

New crises, new opportunities, and new rewards!

The footsteps of Ling's four-member team all became lighter at the same time, and there was an atmosphere of nervousness and excitement in the air.

After Jiu entered the portal, after a moment of dizziness, they arrived in another world.

At this moment, the four people were in a dilapidated hut surrounded by white stone walls. Judging from the surrounding objects, this should be a house where one person lives.

On the wall next to it were carved a few words that everyone knew: [Ienger Royal City]

Stepping into the ruins of the royal city of Aienger, a desolate scene unfolded before our eyes.

The ancient walls collapsed to the ground, with broken stones and rubble scattered everywhere.

Only ruins remain of the once magnificent building, revealing the vicissitudes of time.

I walked cautiously through the ruins, the ground beneath my feet was soft and unstable, and the air was filled with a stale smell.

In the ruins, some ancient relics and artifacts were found. There were broken statues, faded murals, and rusted weapons. These objects witnessed the changes in history and gave us a deeper understanding of the past of this royal city. We carefully observed these relics and tried to piece together what they once looked like.

Deep in the ruins, a relatively well-preserved palace was found. The palace's door was closed, and one could feel the mysterious atmosphere inside. Pushing the door open and walking into the palace, it was quiet inside, with gorgeous tapestries hanging on the walls, but they were faded and damaged.

As they continued to explore the rooms of the palace, they discovered some precious artifacts and treasures, including gold, silver, jewelry, ancient books, and mysterious magic items. These treasures made everyone excited.

When I walked out of the palace, the sun was already setting. I looked back at the ruins of the Royal City of Aienger, and my heart was filled with emotion. This royal city was once so glorious, but now it is only a ruin. The wheel of history rolls forward relentlessly, and everything is constantly changing and disappearing.

I didn't feel like there was anything wrong with the initial section of this royal city. After exploring it for a while, I didn't encounter any monsters or anything bad. There were only local customs and scenes to appreciate.

Even though this royal city is in ruins, you can still see its former glory.

No wonder everyone says that the royal city on this map is more magnificent than all the royal cities in the world and is impossible to replicate in today's society.

Sodros believed this. With the current power of their world, it was almost impossible to replicate such a city. They did not have the strength and time.

But... in the Demon Realm! Sodros had actually seen the existence of a royal city like this.

The city of Ikalina may not be very grand, but it is incomparable to human cities.

Cassia's city is much more outrageous. Her city wall is almost as high as the city itself. From a distance, it stands out compared to the city buildings below.

Of course, he didn't go over to the city wall to take a look because there was no chance.

If I go there next time, maybe I can take some time to visit the city of Cassia.

"Isn't it too quiet here? How come we haven't encountered any monsters in a few minutes?"

Audrey, who was walking in front on guard, couldn't help but complain as she looked at the quiet surroundings. She was really tired from being so tense all the time.

"There's nothing we can do about that. The guidebook doesn't mention this kind of thing. We can only rely on ourselves to explore." Sodros came up and walked with Audrey. "Sister Audrey, if you are tired, go to the back and rest. I'll explore the way first."

Audrey did not refuse. When opening up new land, one must not act too aggressively, otherwise problems will easily arise.

So, Sodros, wearing heavy armor, walked in front, and Audrey followed at the back.

As for Margaret and Rosalin in the middle, the former is responsible for attacking, while the latter is responsible for scouting the surroundings and being on alert immediately if there is any problem.

"Frame~"

After walking for a while, there was a sudden sound from the corner, which attracted the attention of several people, and they all prepared for a fight.

Sodros took the lead and made an attacking posture with the huge axe in his hand. As long as there is a problem later, he will attack immediately!
