After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

Lin Da didn't particularly like Beastmen, except for Lulu and a few others on the team.

This race was mostly brainless with muscles, and in the later stages of the game, they would be misled by the Doomsday Sect, standing against the adventurers.

Mos's face fluctuated between shades of pale and flushed as he gritted his teeth and said, "The battle situation is dire, if this continues, the Giant Rhino adventure team will suffer more losses! Please have mercy and save us!"

Lin Da said, "So, you mean 'requesting aid', not 'cooperation', right?"

"Uh, well..."

A difference of two words, but the meaning vastly differed.

Seeing Mos's dilemma, Lin Da shook his head and said, "Forget it then, we'll find another Leader Level Magical Creature and subdue it ourselves."

"Wait—wait a moment! Yes, it's 'requesting aid'!"

As Lin Da turned to leave, Mos looked like he was about to cry.

He understood what Lin Da meant.

If it was cooperation, the spoils would be split evenly.

But if it was a request for aid, the Giant Rhino adventure team wouldn't get any of the loot!

You expect spoils even when someone else is saving your life?

Although Beastmen had thick skins, they weren't that shameless.

"Phoenix Tail Flower agrees to support you, quickly lead the way," Lin Da turned back and said.

"No way," Kafni blocked Lin Da, sneering at Mos, "Do you really think we, the Phoenix Tail Flower, are like elvish barmaids, at your beck and call? One hundred thousand Gold Coins, or no deal!"

"What, that's too much!"

Mos's face turned beet red as he exclaimed angrily, "With the Monster Tide upon us, we are all adventurers. You disregard the greater good and still dare to ask my Giant Rhino adventure team for money? Do you even understand what 'the greater good' means?"

"Ha!?"

Kafni kicked Mos in the stomach with a thud,

Mos was furious but, like a worker begging for assistance, he had to grit his teeth and swallow his pride: "How can you hit people like this?"

"To hell with your greater good!"

Kafni rolled up her sleeves, ready to hit a few more times, "Stupid Beastman, if you knew the importance of the greater good from the start, why did you try to scare me with a crossbow just now? Either pay up one hundred thousand or buzz off!"

"You...!"

Mos's eyes nearly popped out of his sockets, his fists whitening as he clenched them.

But thinking of his teammates still in danger behind him, Mos's fists reluctantly unclenched. He looked at team leader Lin Da, feeling this human was easier to talk with:

"What about you? You just agreed earlier. Even without the Gold Coins, you'd help, right?"

Lin Da thought for a moment and said, "No, I've changed my mind. My teammate is right, one hundred thousand Gold Coins, or no deal."

Mos eventually compromised.

Frankly, this Beastman had no bargaining power at all.

The only team nearby capable of subduing the Black Armored Crab General was Phoenix Tail Flower.

"One hundred thousand Gold Coins... I'll pay!" Mos said resentfully: "But let me be clear, I don't have that much on me; the team's adventure funds are with team leader Lai Xi!"

"No time to waste, lead the way."

Lin Da nodded.

Shortly thereafter.

The group found the rampaging Black Armored Crab General.

The scene was a mess, with crimson liquid everywhere.

Two of the frontline members of the Giant Rhino adventure team had fallen, their bodies chopped into several pieces.

Lai Xi, Feiny, and three other teammates were exhausted from running.

It was fortunate that the Healer had learned the 'Agility Wind' spell; otherwise, they'd have been caught by the Black Armored Crab General already.

"Mos, you finally made it!"

Lai Xi saw the reinforcements and his tense face relaxed slightly.

However, noticing that Lin Da and his two teammates were only three people, and their Level Aura wasn't high, Lai Xi's heart sank again.

"Are you the team leader?" Lin Da said calmly, "Let me remind you in advance, this is a paid rescue, one hundred thousand Gold, and we'll handle the Magical Creature. Of course, all the loot will be ours."

"As long as you can do it, no problem."

Lai Xi, breathless from being chased, came up to Phoenix Tail Flower and eyed Lin Da with deep skepticism.

He glanced questioningly at Mos, as if to say: What's going on?

Mos nodded vigorously, replying with his eyes: Team leader, don't worry, these people are reliable!

"Let's go." Lin Da said without another word, leading his two teammates toward the Black Armored Crab General, which moved like a tank rumbling towards them.

Their composure contrasted starkly with the disheveled Giant Rhino adventure team.

Especially since Phoenix Tail Flower's levels were much lower!

Dolphin Girl Feiny watched Lin Da with interest.

The members of the Giant Rhino adventure team seemed not too saddened by the loss of their two front-line warriors, and Feiny's attention, even more so, focused on Lin Da's lower half—by nature, dolphins were even worse than foxes and snakes; they were quite a lecherous species.

Feiny secretly decided that if this Apprentice level team really could defeat the Black Armored Crab General, she wouldn't mind rewarding them with her body.

But Lin Da held his sword at the forefront, flanked by Kafni and Monica.

Phoenix Tail Flower and the Black Armored Crab General distance grew closer and closer.

When they entered a distance of twenty meters, Lin Da charged forward.

He rapidly chanted a spell, launching a purple Magic Sphere.

Kafni used the Thief's level 15 skill 'Assassinate'.

Her form became concealed, her presence nearly vanishing as she quietly slipped behind the Black Armored Crab General.

Monica chanted the Earth Bombardment spell, a brown Array phantom emerging in the air.

The battle was on the brink of erupting!

The Venom Magic Sphere was the first to strike, hitting the Black Armored Crab General.

It was like a bucket of ice in summer, instantly dousing the Magical Creature, corroding a hole in its tough Carapace, making it hiss in pain.

This sudden development caused Lai Xi to blink in confusion, wondering: Poison Series should be similar to Fire Series and be restrained as well. Why then, when he as a Level 20 didn't scratch it, could this human, merely Level 16, pierce the carapace in one strike?

Lai Xi was puzzled, and so were Dolphin Girl Feiny and Mos, who had watched the whole thing twice.

If Mos had told them that Lin Da's sword damage was incredibly high beside his spells, Lai Xi probably wouldn't have been able to sleep that night.

A mighty Level 20 Fire Mage, outmatched by a Level 16 human?

The reason for this scenario, objectively speaking, was Lai Xi's poor equipment.

As a team that had just advanced to rock level, Lai Xi only had one piece of Level 20 Purple Gear, and his Fire Series was countered by the Murderous Crab. This was an external factor.

But the internal reason was Lin Da's abilities, which were significantly superior to normal people, coupled with that unimpressive, dusty longsword in his hand!

Wielding the Azure Sword, all of Lin Da's damage would include an extra 40% damage to Aquatic Demons.

Plus the Venom Magic Sphere, originating from a Legendary Skill Tree.

Lin Da had also carefully studied the Black Shell Crab General, knowing which parts of its carapace were relatively weak.

The combination of these internal factors and the external factors presented results that made Lin Da several times stronger than Lai Xi, the Level 20 Fire Mage!

"Triple Slash!"

Lin Da swung the Azure Sword, executing a Triple Strike.

Water transformed into saw teeth, hissing on the blade as if it were an electric saw.

Upon initial contact with the carapace, sparks flew!

The thick carapace held up for less than a second before Lin Da's sword cut deep into the flesh.

Lin Da's Triple Slash directly caused the Black Shell Crab General to lose nearly 2500 health points.

The carapace was covered in sword marks.

Its two small legs were also chopped off by Lin Da.

The Azure Sword cut through like a knife through butter, Lin Da felt no backlash at all.

Using this sword to kill aquatic demons was pure enjoyment!

Then, the skills of his teammates arrived.

Kafni initiated Assassinate, swooping over the Black Shell Crab General.

The Orange Weapon 'Crescent Dagger' in her hand drew a deep white line on the monster's carapace.

Like a mischievous child using a sharp stone to ruin the paint on someone else's luxury carriage.

The carriage wasn't damaged, but it was certainly heart-wrenching to see.

A number popped up: -3000!

The Rogue's skill Assassinate had an extremely high damage multiplier!

Following that, a brown beam of light!

With a loud bang...

The Black Shell Crab General was bombarded, stumbling and rolling, one of its claws falling off.

Its body damaged, its combat effectiveness greatly reduced!

Lin Da estimated that this demon's health points were at most 15000 left.

"Monica, use Earth Spear Spell, remember to save magic power!"

Lin Da recalled his days playing games; if there was a team member who recklessly used their ultimate moves in 'auto-battle', he would hate it bitterly and lock such unmanageable team members in the warehouse.

But in reality, facing a cute white-stockinged Big Lolita, Lin Da, moved by affection and reason, could not speak harshly.

"Yes, Captain Lord!" Monica quickly abandoned the idea of using Earth Bombardment and switched to the minor skill, Earth Spear Spell.

This scene left the Giant Rhino Adventure Team dumbfounded.

Holding back powerful spells and only using basic minor skills?

Didn't they underestimate the Black Shell Crab General too much?

And that Lin Da, whatever bizarre profession he had, threw spells one moment, slashed the next, staying in the front like a War God.

He was 1.8 meters tall, weighing less than 200 pounds, yet he fought the 2000-pound, five-meter-long Black Armored Crab back and forth, with attacks exchanging fiercely!

Moreover, Lin Da kept advancing.

Forcing the Black Shell Crab General to frequently retreat, its eight legs drilled into the ground, plowing little furrows.

The situation was clear at a glance.

This demon that had driven the Giant Rhino Adventure Team to despair wasn't enough for the Phoenix Tail Flower Team to handle!

"Normal Attack, Dodge, Normal Attack, Defend, Normal Attack, Normal Attack..."

Lin Da muttered as if chanting.

With the Verdant Shield opened on his body, he felt completely secure.

Protected by the Light Shield, his mind became even more clear, allowing him to precisely predict the Black Shell Crab General's attacks and respond perfectly.

Offense had the Azure Sword, defense had the Verdant Shield.

The Level 16 Healing Hero, his combat capabilities freshly established.

If there was a major flaw, it was still the lack of burst damage.

Lin Da had to pull the monster's hatred, allowing his teammates to output damage from behind.

He thought to himself: Monica, although high in damage, was weak in sustained damage; Kafni had Divine Power as a trump card and could scout the demon's aura, but she was usually very clumsy, needing at least Level 30 to output significantly.

The fourth member of the team, Lulu, was nowhere to be found, which was worrying...

The Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team, all told, only had four people, which really wasn't enough.

From the tenth layer of the World Tree onward, bosses had frighteningly high health points; they needed to add an output player to the team.

While Lin Da was thinking, the Black Shell Crab General turned into critically low health.

He thrust his sword into its head, ending its life.

The Black Armored Crab let out a reluctant screech, its body thudding to the ground.

The surrounding frenzied Murderous Crabs, as if doused with a bucket of cold water, immediately calmed down.

With their underdeveloped brains, they thought: if even their leader was killed by this human, wouldn't they be going to their deaths?

Having realized this, they scattered in terror under Lin Da's blood-stained Azure Sword.
