I really only stop

"Look! Someone is coming this way!"

"Everyone, get ready! All guards come to the front row with me!"

Fallon let out a low cry, and took the lead in holding the dragon-toothed epee in front of a group of magician priests.Encouraged by him, the knights, including Cupid, raised their spirits one after another, and the morale of the adventurer team was suddenly boosted.There is reason to believe that even if an evil dragon is coming in front of them, the adventurers will surely win under the leadership of Faron.

And Lu Xi... Well, Lu Xi stood in the back row of the guards, which is the so-called second echelon.

This is a matter of course, right?We don't have any powerful attack methods, and the equipment we build is most suitable for use when we stop. The only thing Tiamat needs is a life-saving skill.

It can be said that my whole body's ability is slowly developed based on the time and stop of the biggest hole card.The current initial goal is to be 'undefeated'. When I grow up to the strength of Chairman Fallon at a normal pace, I can really play freely in the different world.

I will not mention these for the time being, it is better to focus on the things in front of me.

Under the nervous gaze of the adventurers, the small figure was getting closer and closer, and finally, it was completely displayed in front of everyone——

This is a kind and simple old man.

It seemed that everyone didn't care about the momentum of the sword being drawn at all. The old man saluted with his hands on his chest, and introduced himself:

"Hello, warriors, this old man is Aizhak, the village head here. On behalf of the villagers, I would like to welcome you here."

... seems to be able to communicate?

In this case, there is no more suitable negotiator than Fallon in the adventure group.He cleared his throat, trying to make his voice sound calmer:

"We are adventurers from the Adventurer's Guild of Rhine City, and we arrived here through the cave over there. Excuse me, what is this place?"

"here?"

The old man paused for a moment, then looked back at the village behind:

"This place is called Suen Village. I have lived here for generations, and have not had contact with the outside world for a long time. According to the legend of the village, when we are in crisis, there will be warriors coming from the other side of the cave to save us , now it seems that you are right."

crisis?

Finally smelling a hint of danger, Faron's eyes sharpened:

"Did you encounter any difficulties?"

"Yes."

The old man sighed for a long time: "In this world isolated from the outside world, there are actually not only people from our village living. Outside the village, there is also a very terrifying monster. They are agile and good at avoiding monsters." , has always been a serious concern for us.”

Faron frowned, and immediately connected the old man's description with the meat ball lamprey that Lu Xi had hunted down earlier.

"Recently, for some unknown reason, the number of monsters that were originally rare has suddenly increased rapidly. It is difficult to resist with the strength of young and middle-aged people in our village. Everyone is worried about this. Fortunately, the legend is true. Everyone who came in from the other side of the cave It will definitely help us through this difficult time.”

At the end of the talk, the old man bent down respectfully and made a "please" gesture in the direction of the village.

Should we follow through?

For a while, Fallon was also a little undecided.According to common sense, there must be something wrong with the village in the maze.But in the maze, I can't trust my common sense.

Some mazes have their own [story], if they deviate from the right track, the danger will suddenly increase.What if this old man is the so-called mainline?

While thinking irritably, Faron suddenly caught a glimpse of a person from the corner of his eye——

"..."

Lu Xi was trying to integrate himself into the background board, and was having a great time paddling in the second echelon.

This kid obviously has the strength to fight against the stone giant alone, and the turning and thrusting in the cave that I didn't even react to just now is even more amazing, but at this critical moment, he pretended to be stupid instead!

I heard that when Cupid went to call him, he didn't want to come, so he didn't have any enthusiasm for adventurers at all!Obviously according to his current age, if he fights seriously, his future achievements will be immeasurable, but this guy actually bought a nursing home to enclose himself!

The more he thought about it, the more he felt perplexed. Faron, who loved and hated Lu Xi's talent deeply, grabbed him by the collar and pulled him to his side.

"Luci."

Looking at Lu Xi who was a little overwhelmed by being mentioned in front of so many people, Fallon's eyes flashed with pride, and he asked in a deep voice:

"What do you think should be done?"

Chapter 54 The Village of Mysteries

"I, I decide?"

Looking at the gazes of the adventurers behind him, and seeing the inexplicably cheerful expression mixed with Faron's encouragement, Lu Xi was stunned:

"No, it's not very good... I'm just a novice adventurer of E-level. It's quite reluctant to get here with everyone this time. How can I make a decision for you?"

nonsense!I'm not the protagonist of Aotianliu, the current situation knows that there is a problem with my feet, and those who dare to stand in the front row of the adventurer group are either strong or stupid.

Back paddling is the most suitable for me at this time. When things change, and Fallon resists the boss, wouldn't it be nice for me to mix in the background board and output mobs?

Apparently seeing Lu Xi's thoughts of trying to avoid it, a cunning flashed in the eyes of Faron, who was already half-human.He turned back to the adventurer group and shouted:

"Hey! Does anyone among you think that Lu Xi is just an [E-level rookie]?"

Because he didn't brag about defeating the stone giant, Lucy thought that everyone would keep silent.Unexpectedly, the adventurers immediately clamored:

"How is it possible? Brother Lu Xi is obviously very strong, right?"

"That's right! The thrusting move just now, although it looks simple and unpretentious, but the speed is really not covered!"

"As an archer, I didn't find out how brother Lu Xi hit the monster even though I turned on the wild vision. At that time, there was obviously no room for reaction—under such circumstances, he still completed a beautiful Anti-kill, how can such a person be weak?"

"That's right! Lu Xi once broke all my defenses with one blow, it's amazing!"

"That's right! Lu Xi is very strong!"

...That's all for stupid fans, Nana, why are you making trouble at this time?

Speechlessly looking at the girl who was blushing and desperately adding to her glorious image, Lu Xi sighed.

Unexpectedly, it was the meatball lamprey that exposed my strength.

That being the case, speak your mind honestly.

After looking at the kind-hearted old man in front of him, Lu Xi asked Faron in a low voice:

"Is it possible for real humans to appear in the maze?"

Fallon also lowered his voice: "Common sense, it's impossible. But the maze was originally a place of miracles that broke through common sense, so no one can explain it clearly."

"I see."

Lu Xi understood the reason for Faron's worry: "If this is a [Honkai Labyrinth] as you said, since it lost its specificity, these people, no matter whether they were real or fake before, are now real human beings. right?"

"Completely correct."

There was a hint of approval in Faron's eyes, but it was quickly covered up by worry: "Now I can't judge whether what this person said is true or not. I have seen mimic monsters before, but they can simulate all human buildings. Yes, I haven't heard of it."

"In this case, why not follow him around and have a look. After all, this may also be something like [plot]."

After looking at the old man's smile, Lu Xi said softly: "Don't touch any food and water sources provided by the people in the village, use the original adventurer team as the basic unit, and don't act alone. Most importantly, stay vigilant at all times. Be prepared for the opponent to turn his face at any time."

"very good."

Hearing Lu Xi's methodical analysis, Faron nodded: "People in the front row, pass on what Lu Xi said just now to the people in the back row in turn, and come with me when they understand."

The adventurers made a common "understand" gesture and followed it well.

----------

"Although our village is small in scale, it still has all kinds of facilities. The nearby land harvests abundantly every year, and life is not bad."

It seemed that there was no reaction to the whispers of Lu Xi and Faron just now. The old man just led the road ahead and explained the situation of the village:

"Actually, according to previous experience, as long as the young and middle-aged people in the village cooperate together, the monsters in the wild are nothing at all. As aquatic creatures, they cannot live on the shore for too long. We deliberately made the environment in the village a little dry. They It's impossible to get in."

"This person should not have lied."

Yuxia poked Lu Xi, and when he looked over, pointed to an obviously wet and fresh soil on the ground:

"A very regular circle. It should have been a well before, but it was filled in recently."

"That is to say, originally there was a well in this village to draw water, but recently the number of aquatic monsters has suddenly increased. In order to keep the village as dry as possible, they filled the well?"

Nana nodded thoughtfully: "The information can be matched, it seems that this old man did not lie to us."

"...It's just a matter of cheating or not."

Different from Nana and Yuxia's slightly relieved, Lu Xi frowned and looked at the peaceful villages around him, and said in a low voice:

"I've felt a weird atmosphere since I entered here. Don't you think it's too deliberate?"

It is a village that exists in the labyrinth against common sense, but its own situation is extremely in line with common sense.This vague sense of contradiction made Lu Xi feel uneasy all the time.

However, everything the old man said can be matched with what he witnessed, which is a bit...

"Oh, it's alright, alright~"

Celica, as always, was heartless and heartless, breaking the somewhat stagnant atmosphere:

"Didn't we follow the chairman's uncle? Although he is not as powerful as the ruling power of my right hand seal, he is also a very powerful person. Don't everyone say that he can 'suppress the maze alone'! It must be no problem!"

Faron's strength as an adventurer is beyond doubt.Experience, strength, will...all aspects are worthy of people's respect for him.In such a situation, there is always something reassuring about following someone like this.

Fallon obviously also noticed the filled wells: "Old man, although I understand your measures to fill the wells to defend against monsters, how to ensure the water supply in the village?"

The old man sighed deeply: "There is an underground lake in the cave where you descended. Although there are monsters entrenched there, in order to make the village as safe as possible, we can only let the young and middle-aged take risks to fetch water every day—— Ah, here we are, this is the place to welcome you all."

While speaking, Lu Xi and the others had already arrived in front of a huge wooden two-story building.The windows of this building are bright and clean. Although it is simple, it is extremely clean. Looking through the windows on the first floor, there are faintly visible furniture such as beds and cabinets inside. It is obviously a place for travelers to live in.

"This is... a hotel?"

Faron looked at the old man: "Old man, is this the meaning of inviting us to live here?"

"Naturally."

The old man saluted again with his hands on his chest, and said with a smile:

"You are all warriors sent by the heavens to save us, so naturally we can't treat you badly. Just let us handle the food and lodging of the warriors in our village, and that's what we should do."

[Luci? 】

[...I can't find a reason to refuse. 】

After meeting eyes at a very fast speed, Faron smiled and nodded to the old man:

"Then, we will trouble everyone these few days."

The old man smiled and nodded.

Chapter 55: Being Sleeping Together?

"It's a normal room..."

Picking a door at random and opening it, Lu Xi found that it was furnished in a very ordinary hotel style.

The furnishing of a single room is not gorgeous, it can even be said to be mediocre.In addition to common furniture such as cabinets and stools, there are only four single beds honestly side by side on both sides of the room.

"Wow! It's a bed!!"

Celica, who was exhausted all the way, saw the four bright beds in front of her eyes, and jumped on them:

"Oh! So soft! The quilt smells like sunshine!"

Looking at Celica rolling on the bed, the corners of Lu Xi's mouth couldn't help twitching:

"Didn't you hear the conversation I had with President Fallon just now? There is a subtle sense of weirdness everywhere. At the very least, you should check if there is any mechanism on the bed, right?"

"Organ? Impossible, impossible~"

Serika waved her hands carelessly: "My magic eyes are born to judge ominous omens, and I can predict them—there is nothing wrong with this hotel, and it even brings me a great sense of peace of mind! As for the weird stuff, it's all because Weak Xixi is paranoid~"

...This kind of fool who has no sense of crisis!

Ignoring Zelika who was jumping around there, Lu Xi suppressed Flash's desire to tear her face, and checked every corner under the bed and by the window one by one.

Needless to say, nothing unusual was found.

The hotel is clean and tidy, all the beds are stacked flat, and the cabinets are spotless.Although a little moss and plaque on the wooden structure tells the oldness of the building itself, overall, it is still a qualified residence that has been carefully cleaned by the manager.
