Pirate's Bizarre Adventure

"A monster suddenly appeared."

"The mysterious mark behind the monkey god."

“Is this a loss of morality or a distortion of human nature?”

"The blond elf faces a huge challenge."

"He looks like an adult, but he's a child at heart."

"There is always only one truth."

"'Detective Maru Hill', a grand serialization!"

There was a burst of noise behind her, which made Malushiel upset.

She had to divert her attention from the mysterious fur and said with a frown, "Can you be quiet? I'm thinking!"

"I'd rather be grilling than thinking."

Jon shrugged: "If you don't know how to solve a problem at first glance, you will probably not be able to solve it no matter how much you study it. It's better to just give it a try and review it carefully before trying to solve it again.

This is all based on the experience of our predecessors, Maru, so hurry up and choose C. The probability that C is the correct answer is much higher than the other four options."

Malushel: ???
What's ABCD.

She curled her lips: "Do you think this is some kind of exam?"

That being said, she really wanted to return to the surface, find a few reference books in the rented house, and slowly decipher the contents of this fur...

"Alright, alright, stop arguing. We worked together to defeat the silverback ape. Isn't that something worthy of praise?" Laos had to come out to smooth things over: "Come on, let's make peace."

The heart is good.

It's just that this method is a bit naive.

Before Jon and Malushiel could say anything, Chilchak put his hands on his pillow, stared with dead eyes and said, "To be precise, the silverback ape was defeated by Qiao Qiao. It has nothing to do with us. If we have to divide the credit, Senxi may have contributed a little. As for you, Laos, your contribution is zero."

"Hey, hey, hey, that's really disheartening." Laos said with tears in his eyes, "I'm also trying my best to escape."

Facts aside.

Didn't I contribute?
Who in the family understands?

Chilchak didn't bother to pay attention to this fool. He said to Jon with admiration: "You are really amazing. You defeated such a powerful monster with just one blow."

"It should be that the desperate situation stimulated my body's potential. You know the Eight Gates, right? Do you know the Kaio-ken? Anyway, it's a similar principle." Jon made up a story. "In short, once the battle begins, the situation changes rapidly. I may not be able to use that kind of sword energy next time."

Chilcak: ...

I don't understand.

But it sounds like it's very powerful.

Forget it.

If you don’t understand, then just don’t understand.

Anyway, I'm just a tool to unlock locks and treasure chests.

The group chatted and made a fuss.

Then he returned to the wolf's lair.

Laos and Jon went over to check it out.

Found the bodies of wargs everywhere.

of course.

There was also a mangled human body.

"Fortunately, the bones are well preserved." Laos looked at the corpse for a moment and actually smiled at it. "This way, even if I use the resurrection magic, I won't be disabled. It's a blessing in disguise."

The underground labyrinth possesses extremely powerful magical protection, and after death, the soul will not leave the body.

At this time, adventurers with resurrection ability can revive it.

Laos, Marusil, and Chirchak all had experiences of resurrection after death. Although it was unbearable to look back on, it was also an indispensable part of adventurous life.

"There's no body bag on hand, forget it, let's just use grass leaves." Laos was very courageous and didn't care about corpses at all. He endured the bad smell and rolled the male adventurer's body into a huge piece of grass leaves, and complained inappropriately: "It looks like a burrito."

"Apologize to all the burrito lovers around the world!" Jon gave Laos a slap on the face.

Laos touched his head and said, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again next time."

After three smooth hits, Jon finally let him go.

Carrying the body outside.

Malushiel covered her mouth subconsciously.

"Well, with this, our commission on the second underground floor is complete." Laos said, "Although there is no reward."

"The girl's gratitude is the best reward." Malushel urged, "Let's go, the adventurer sister should be waiting for us."

The journey here was safe and sound, and the return journey was smooth.

The female adventurer heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her brother's body. "Thank you, thank you so much."

If she was alone, she would not be able to eliminate the pack of wolves in a short time. By then, her brother's resurrection would definitely be affected.

Laos waved his hand: "No need to say more."

Malushiel waved her hand: "This is what we should do."

Chirchak waved his hand: "It's better to find a clergyman who can perform resurrection spells as soon as possible."

Jon waved his hand...

Oh.

He just wanted to maintain formation, there's nothing much to say.

Amidst their gratitude, the group headed to the third underground floor.

Senxi didn't encounter the cockroach that he had planned to see, which made him feel very regretful.

"Eggs! We must find eggs as soon as possible!" The dwarf warrior was extremely persistent in his nutritional intake. "There are also cockatiels on the third underground floor... ahem, cockatiels. We'll try to find them when the time comes."

"Good good."

When Laos heard that monsters could be eaten, he was the first to raise his hands in agreement.

Malushel wanted to say something.

But after thinking about it, he realized that it would be useless to say anything, so he lowered his head helplessly and muttered to himself as if he had accepted his fate: "It's all for survival, it's all for Falin, it's all for adventure..."

As I talked, I felt a little aggrieved.

Unfortunately, no one cares about what the silly elf thinks.

The third underground floor——

"It seems to be nearby, the entrance to the shortcut..."

Hearing this, Senxi tilted his head in confusion: "Shortcut?"

"Yes, there are actually many hidden paths in the maze." Then, Chilchak said to Malushil, "Hey, woman over there, lend me your staff."

"Ah? I don't want to. You're going to use this child to hit the wall anyway." Malushiel hugged her staff tightly, looking reluctant.

Chilchak said nothing, turned to look at Laos and said, "Give me your sword."

To be honest, Laos was somewhat reluctant, but in order to rush to the battle with the red dragon as soon as possible, he had to reluctantly give his companion to Chirchak, and patiently instructed: "This child is very sensitive, you must treat him gently..."

"Okay, okay, I get it. You're such a nag."

After responding to a few casual remarks, Chilchak struck a posture similar to that of hitting a baseball, took a deep breath, and slightly raised one foot.

The next second, he slammed his sword against the wall of the maze. At the same time, his ears moved slightly.

(Laios:!!!)

Based on the echo, Chilchak groped back and forth on the wall and soon found the hidden mechanism.

"Here." Under the gaze of everyone, he nudged a brick with his elbow.

click-

A hidden door suddenly appeared behind Senxi.

"Here, your sword." Chilchak returned the sword to Laos.

A trace of heartache flashed across Laos' face.

However, after watching Chilchak's performance, he and Malushiel still applauded out of respect.

Senxi stroked his beard and said, "Is this the shortcut?"

"That's right. Chilchak is an expert in detecting traps and unlocking locks. You also know that halflings have very keen senses. This race of theirs can judge the structure of a building by the reflection of sound." Jon explained casually.

"Halflings are truly amazing." Senxi couldn't help but admire, "I have a new respect for this race."

Chirchak was secretly pleased with himself and rubbed his nose with his hand.

Then, he showed an unprecedented serious expression: "Let me be frank with you. Although the shortcut is very convenient, it also has many traps. You can only act after my instructions. Don't act recklessly."

Looking at the crowd, he said, "I hate it most when my work is interfered with by others."

Hearing this, Laos and Malushiel nodded obediently.

Jon nodded as well.

Only Senxi remained silent, his eyes revealing a look of indifference.

Find the oil lamp and let Chilchak lead the way.

After going down a few steps, he suddenly raised his hand and said, "I feel something is wrong. Wait a minute, you guys stand here and don't move. I'll go ahead and see if there are any traps."

After saying that, he took off the weight on his body, took off his shoes, and walked over quietly.

"Halflings are very light, and many mechanisms and traps have no effect on them at all." Laos said to Sensi boastfully.

Senxi looked at his muscular arms and protruding belly, "I still feel that being solid and solid will make me feel at ease..."

Chilchak's exploration work was carried out very carefully.

He would check every floor tile carefully, like a detection dog, and would lie on the ground from time to time.

It was a lot of trouble.

Chilchak said to his companions: "You can step on this, that, and that piece of floor that is obviously raised. Don't touch the rest of the place."

"OK." Laos gave Chilchak a thumbs up.

"OK." Malushiel followed suit.

Jon kept the formation: "OKKKKK——"

It sounds good.

However, before he took two steps, many long swords suddenly shot out from the ground, almost stabbing a hole in Chirchak.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Didn't I tell you to follow my instructions?" Chilchak's defense was broken.

When he looked down, he found that Senxi's big feet had stepped too far beyond the original safe range.

Senxi blinked: "You just said it so fast, who can remember it?"

He still had a nonchalant expression on his face, "Besides, I'm not very particular about small matters."

"Is this the time to talk about this? If you move at all, we'll be in trouble. Traps can affect each other, just like dominoes. If one is triggered, who knows how many will be triggered next..."

Sensi raised his eyes slightly, and without waiting for Chilchak to finish speaking, he took a step forward.

"Wait a moment!"

Bang bang bang.

Take one more step.

"Wait a moment!"

Hula hula hula.

"Wait……"

Senxi strode forward, and countless mechanisms were activated.

Chilchak was in such a panic that even his clothes were cut.

Fortunately, Laos and John's swordsmanship was quite reliable, and they solved some tricky traps, so they passed the shortcut safely.

"Look, isn't this nothing serious?" Sensi turned around and said to everyone seriously.

These words made Chirchak so angry that he almost pounced on the bearded man and fought him to the death.

While Laos stopped Chirchak, Sensi was thinking about the path behind him: "It's really strange, it's clearly in a maze, but it can spray such fierce flames..."

Chirchak gasped and said, "What's so strange about this? It's because of the fire trap. You saw it just now. There will be a lot of oil and fuel near the fire trap, which can help increase the power of the fire."

"Oil and fuel?" Senxi thought thoughtfully.

After about three or four seconds, he suddenly pounded his hands, as if he had made some kind of decision: "Then let's have fried tempura for lunch!"

How the hell did you get from murder traps to fried tempura?

Chirchak suddenly turned off the engine and covered his face with his hands.

He felt that it was a complete waste of time for someone as smart as him to get angry at a ignorant guy.

Malushil: "Can we eat fried tempura in such a harsh environment? The ingredients we have on hand... no, no, no, the most important thing is the oil?"

Senxi pretended not to hear this and asked carefully: "Where is the oil spraying mechanism?"

"Wait a moment, the oil in the trap should be inedible, right?" Chirchak said unhappily.

Sensi: "How can you know without being sure? Little halfling, you are an expert in traps, but not in fuel."

Chirchak said blankly: "I am not a child, I am an adult..."

However, Sensi was completely immersed in his own inner world, and took the opportunity to popularize science to everyone: "There are many kinds of oils, such as rapeseed oil, corn oil, soybean oil and animal fats. Among them, vegetable oils have the largest supply."

Changing the subject: "In short, I want to see what kind of oil is in the mechanism."

He looked at Chilchak, "If you are an expert in traps, you can surely satisfy this old man's curiosity."

I'll satisfy you, hammer!
Chilchak's face was filled with black lines.

But Laos patted him on the shoulder and said, "Well, now that things have come to this, let's eat first. Don't you want to taste the taste of fried tempura? We have been working hard on the road these days and it seems that we have no oil or water."

"Why do you think we are trying so hard to hurry? Isn't it because... Forget it, since you said so." Chirchak is indeed an adult with stable emotions. However, in order to avoid trouble, he still gave a shot of precaution: "Let me make it clear first, I can try to crack the mechanism of the oil, but this time you must listen to my command and don't move around anymore!"

Senxi: "If it's for cooking, I can endure it."

I can endure it for the sake of cooking, but I can’t endure it at other times, right?

Chilchak hardened.

The fist is hard.

But thinking of the difference in power between himself and Senxi, he pursed his lips and walked back to the path full of traps.

Taking this opportunity, Senxi took out some salt-baked meat and said to himself: "Haha, fried meat is also delicious." (End of this chapter)
