Chapter 459 Goo, kill me

   "It seems that there is no success." Jiang Li felt that there was no change, neither the art of alchemy nor the way of time.

  Lance's younger sister, Phyllis, looked at Jiang Li with resentful eyes.

  The church does not have a statue of a god, so it is still a church.

  Jiang Li picked up seven statues and returned them to the church.

  Jiang Li still knows a little bit of the most basic weapon refining technique.

   Originally, Jiang Li wanted to pay Felice his statue. He must be stronger than the seven gods, so his statue is naturally more valuable than the statues of the seven gods.

  But Jiang Li thought about it again, it seems that he can't give people skills, and it's useless to put up a statue of himself.

   "The matter of technology is over for now, let's go and continue our journey."

  Lance is confused, what journey should he continue?

  Jiang Li sternly said: "As a legendary brave man, of course I'm going to crusade against the Demon King. Do you still remember what I said when I invited you to join the team?"

   "I said let's form a team together to defeat the devil."

  Lance looked weird.

  How should I put it, the strength of this boss is beyond doubt, and it is no problem to crusade against the devil.

  Just hugging Jiang Li's thigh and successfully defeating the Demon King, Lance always felt that there was no sense of accomplishment.

  Felix said respectfully: "Master Jiangli, according to the prophecy of the gods, the brave who conquers the devil will conquer four dungeons and obtain the four legendary pieces of equipment, the sword of the brave who cuts everything, the ring of the brave with unlimited magic power, the crown of the brave who resists mind control, and the shield of the brave who can withstand the attack of the devil. Only with these four weapons can the brave have the power to defeat the devil."

  Jiang Li said with great interest: "It's quite particular, then let's go to the dungeon."

   After saying goodbye to Phyllis, Lance embarked on a new journey.

  Lance had a premonition that it was destined to be a long journey.

   Half a minute later, Lance stood at the entrance of the first dungeon in a daze.

  Jiang Li turned his head and called him: "What are you doing in a daze, come in, and tell me about the dungeon by the way."

   "Oh." Lance came back to his senses and trotted all the way to keep up with Jiang Li's pace.

   "The dungeon has dozens of floors, and each floor is full of monsters. The lower you go, the higher the level of the monsters, and the more difficult it is to defeat them. The most difficult monsters are the floor masters at the bottom."

   "I wonder if you have carefully read the quests issued by the union, most of which are related to the dungeons. Countless adventurers took the quests and were active in the dungeons, fighting monsters, completing the quests, and exchanging the monsters' skins, teeth and other items for gold coins."

   "The best proof of an adventurer's strength is the crusade against the lowest-level masters. The brave team I was in before successfully defeated the six lowest-level masters. Although it was not the fastest crusade in history, it had the smallest casualties in history."

   "Originally, I planned to take a while, and when we all became legendary adventurers, we would attack the four prophesied dungeons. Now it seems impossible."

   Speaking of this, Lance had a wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

  Lance was about to say something when he heard a scream.

   A few little green-skinned monsters in front of them, wielding wooden sticks, are besieging a young female archer.

   "Gu, kill me." The female archer accepted her fate, knowing that there was no hope of escape.

  Jiang Li waved the little green-skinned monster away.

   "This is a goblin, the most common demon with the same reputation as slime." Originally, Lance wanted to save people, but Jiang Li did it before him. All he can do now is explain.

   "Thank you two for saving your lives." The female archer burst into tears of gratitude. If Jiang Li didn't take action, her fate can be imagined.

  The female archer has fair skin, long pale golden hair like a work of art, and her slightly long pointed ears are trembling, as if she was frightened by the scene just now.

   Apparently, Archer is an elf.

  Jiang Li took out a robe and put it on the female archer, and asked, "I think your physical fitness is much stronger than those goblins, how did you end up in this situation?"

   "I, I didn't expect that goblins are just low-level monsters, but they can attack me. I was careless for a while, and the head was hit hard by the goblins with a wooden stick a few times."

  Lance frowned: "To go to the dungeon to take risks, you need at least two adventurers to accompany you. Why are you alone?"

   "Temporarily forming a team is too troublesome. I thought I just wanted to kill a few goblins, and it could be done easily. I didn't expect it to become what it is now..." The female archer's voice became softer as she spoke.

   Lance asked sharply: "Stupid, do you know how many adventurers die in the dungeon every year because of your arrogant mentality! Goblins and slimes, you think they are easy to defeat, but in fact countless adventurers die under their hands!"

   "I know I was wrong." The female archer bowed her head and admitted that she really knew that she was wrong.

  Jiang Li bent down, picked up a handful of soil, and rubbed it on his fingertips. He noticed that after the goblins died, they were absorbed by the dungeon.

   "This dungeon is a bit interesting. Some kind of magic formation is set up. As long as a creature dies, the formation will absorb the energy dissipated when the creature dies, store it, and wait to be taken away."

   "And every floor has this kind of formation." This is what Jiang Li saw with his divine sense.

   "Master Jiang Li, what do you mean, no matter demons or humans, as long as you die in the dungeon, the energy in your body will be absorbed by the dungeon?" Lance was shocked, he had never heard such a statement.

   "Not what I meant, it is what it is."

   "Lance, let me ask you, how many foolish adventurers like the female archer are there?"

   "Countless. We grew up listening to the legends of heroic adventurers. The adventurers in the stories are all heroic, responsible and accomplished, cherish their companions, and have superior force. When these adventurers form a team, there is no enemy that cannot be defeated."

   "The story never said that the heroic adventurers used tricks to defeat the enemy. The stories were all about the adventurers breaking out in front of the battle, their strength soaring, and beheading the enemy. The captain of my original team was similar to the adventurer in the story."

   "It is precisely because of this that many people think that as long as they are united, it is enough. Facing monsters of similar level as themselves, there are many people on their side, and they are united as one, so it is impossible to lose."

   "This has led to too many people stepping forward without thinking and dying in the dungeon."

  Lance advocates planning before acting, which in the eyes of many people is a sign of cowardice.

  Jiang Li's analysis: "Obviously, someone is obstructing it, letting adventurers and demons kill each other, and this person is profiting from it."

   "This is the plan of the fairy world? No, even if the adventurers and the demons fight to the death, they will not be able to kill all the creatures in the world. Adventurers are only a part of the human race, and there are more human races that do not need to fight the demons."

   "There are two possibilities, either this is not the Immortal World's plan, or this is just part of the Immortal World's plan."
