Chapter 146: 129, Four-Star Character: [Storm] Tasya
Lulu, in her witch form, greatly increased in strength and managed to dodge the attacks of Heart's Eye Abner consecutively.
The Q-version tiny figure flickered back and forth in the dojo, like something out of an action blockbuster.
However, the power of the White Dove Adventure Group was too overwhelming, and their numbers too great.
Lulu didn't last long before she too became a black and white avatar.
Lin Da shook his head and returned to the free challenge page.
Above were the rock-level adventure teams. With the current Phoenix Tail Flower team, there was a certain gap compared to the rock-level. To start with, they were significantly lacking in member count.
Looking at any rock-level team, there were at least five members.
His Phoenix Tail Flower team, fully tallied, had only four people, including Kafni the Summoned Beast.
Noticing the [Today's Remaining Refreshes: 1] below the challenge page, Lin Da clicked it.
He was in luck this time; the challenge page refreshed, and there was one marked 'Easy'.
[Panda Adventure Team]
"This is the one."
Lin Da clicked to confirm the challenge. The adventurers walking out of the teleportation array on the right side of the screen were all dressed in matching Panda team uniforms.
The young leader of the group, seeing the healthy physiques of the Phoenix Tail Flower team members, seemed to lose his way.
He was blown away by a direct hit from Monica's Earth Bombardment.
"This weak? They probably average below level 15; couldn't even withstand a single Earth Bombardment."
After dealing with the Panda Adventure Team, a system prompt popped up in front of Lin Da:
[Challenge Success, you've received Defense Guidance Coupons x10, Strength Guidance Coupons x15, and a Furniture Little Bear Pattern Cup x1]
"Not a bad reward."
Lin Da nodded and placed the little bear cup in the Back House, thereby increasing the base diamond earnings by 100.
The challenge page, now grey, could no longer be clicked. It seems there were only two challenge chances per day.
At the very bottom of the page, there was a very familiar adventure team.
[Snow Goose Adventure Team, Challenge Difficulty: Difficult]
Looking at the name of this adventure team, Lin Da slightly lost his focus.
To challenge his former team with the current team he led was a mix of complex emotions.
"After passing the fourth level of the Mystic Realm, comes the fifth level, the Public Grand Secret Realm. To prevent Lia from pulling any tricks, it's best to recruit some more members and improve Phoenix Tail Flower's strength," Lin Da murmured to himself, with the images of several Four-Star Characters flickering through his mind.
He had previously asked Lulu if she knew where the other Primordial team members were. Lulu's answer was that she was not sure; she had only happened to encounter Monica.
Those Four-Star Characters were each kicked out by Lin Da, leading them to leave the team individually, basically cutting off contact with each other.
Lin Da wanted to take them to the top floor, but how to find them, to resolve their grudges against him... Just the mere thought gave him a headache.
...
In South Rock City, a large entertainment facility.
At night, colorful lights flickered wildly. Exotic dancers flaunted their moves on stage, music blasted loud from magic devices, deafening to the ears.
The adventurers below laughed and frolicked, waving flower tickets bought with gold coins, throwing them in heaps towards the stage.
The place was filled with people of all races, though mostly males.
Returning from the World Tree Secret Realm, they came here to release stress, indulging in beauty and alcohol...
What could be seen around was a scene of unrestrained chaos.
The night club owner would arrange beauties to attend to the adventurers. As long as the night's entry fee was paid, one became a top-level guest here.
However, in this chaotic paradise of desire, there was one maid who stood out as out of place.
She didn't belong to this club, but rather, she was a 'guest'.
She wasn't there for enjoyment, but rather to 'find someone'.
"Are you Lin Da?"
The voice, as mechanical as it was calm and without fluctuation, emerged from the cherry-colored lips of the maid.
Her long silver hair, her tan healthy skin, slender in stature, she carried a large black suitcase which faintly smelled of magic stone gunpowder smoke, perhaps holding a rarely seen weapon: a Magic Cannon.
The Magic Cannon had greater power than bows and arrows, the main weapon for a rare profession. However, the people in the club did not notice this, the strong scent of perfume and wheat beer masking the odor of magic stone gunpowder from the case.
What garnered more attention was the woman's appearance; her cold, forbidding beauty. She wore a black and white maid outfit, her long legs covered by white garter stockings, a seductive lace ribbon delving into the long skirt, wrapping around her waist.
The flawless ivory further highlighted the enchantment of her tanned skin, giving off an exotic and mysterious vibe.
Her eyes, serene as a lake, made the surrounding revelry seem like mere noise. Even when she saw several Beastmen ganging up to punish a blonde Elf, she remained indifferent, showing none of the shyness or fear of a normal woman.
"What, Lin Da? What do you want with me?"
A big man called out impatiently, turning around.
The mysterious maid was immediately disappointed.
What she saw was an ugly pig-headed face with a large black mole at the corner of his mouth.
Could the face behind that 'master's' mask truly shine brighter than the stars, and not be this disgusting pig's head?
A thick disapproval showed uncompromisingly on the face of the mysterious woman, as if seeing a lump of excrement buzzing with green flies, sickened by the pig-headed man.
She withdrew her gaze, picking up the large black case and walked toward the exit of the club.
Her search for the 'Lin Da' in South Rock City had once again proved fruitless.
Since leaving the Scarlet Adventure Group, half a year had passed, and she still hadn't found her 'master'. According to the agreement, she was to return to Red Heart City for a while, to fulfill her adventurer's duty of exploring Mystic Realms.
