After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply Chapter 70

Chapter 70: 70, Lin Da and Big Lolita

Lin Da listened to Snow Goose's strategy and couldn't help but feel speechless, “So, why can't you just take on the three Swift Rock Lizards separately?”

“Have Oru and Klrona each lure one away and then have Lia and Aiko team up to take down another?”

“Is that even possible?” Oru asked, scratching his head in confusion.

“Actually, there's a simpler method. Just coat the damage dealers with Dragon Dung—the Swift Rock Lizards are afraid of that smell.”

Lin Da sighed:

“However, the best approach would still be for you and Klrona to concentrate on attacking the Swift Rock Lizards' tails as that is their weak point, which generates the most aggro.

Debilitate them all, and then finish them off with Aiko's area of effect Magic, 'Rain of Light,' to take down all three Swift Rock Lizards at once,

which will trigger the eleventh level's hidden condition, and the quality of the Treasure Chest dropped by the Magical Creatures will be one tier higher.”

When Oru and Klyne heard his detailed analysis, they were a bit stunned, exchanging glances, wondering why the eleventh level seemed so simple?

If they strictly followed Lin Da's method, would it be another no-damage fight?

Confused, Klyne asked, “Lin Da, can I ask, how do you know so much? You haven't been to the eleventh level, have you?”

“I haven't been, but I've watched others' strategy live broadcasts.”

Lin Da had already thought about how to address these kinds of questions and said:

“Apart from spending Gold Coins to watch the famous adventure teams' live strategy broadcasts, there are also adventurers' diaries and records, which contain a lot of important information.

Like the fact that Swift Rock Lizards are afraid of Dragon Dung, I found that in a book called 'Matos's Elderly Pig Farming Life',

One day, Matos was hit on the head by Dragon Dung from the sky, and on his way home, he didn't encounter any Swift Lizards.

After testing it, I found it was useful, so there's a high probability that Dragon Dung also works on Swift Rock Lizards of the same species.”

Listening to this, Oru was dumbfounded: “Out of a hundred books of that sort, aren't ninety-nine of them useless? You immerse yourself in the library just to read these things?”

Lin Da shook his head, “They may seem useless, but if you dig deep, you can find some valuable information.”

In the first year after coming to Another World, Lin Da moved back and forth between the library and his rental house.

The number of miscellaneous books in the library was immense, enough to form mountains. Finding valuable things from them was like panning gold from dirt.

Moreover, most of them consisted of adventurers boasting about themselves, making it difficult to distinguish the real information, much less apply it to strategies for the World Tree…

Thinking about this, Oru could only admit complete admiration.

Previously, like Lia and the others, he had comfortably enjoyed the benefits brought by Lin Da's strategies, knowing Lin Da was good at devising strategies, but he had never imagined he would be this impressive,

compared to Phyllis from the Noble Academy, he was really something!

“Brother Lin Da, look, can we join your team?” Oru, caught up in the excitement, blurted out.

Seeing the troubled look on Lin Da's face, Klyne sternly scolded Oru, “Stop talking nonsense, our contract with Snow Goose is still valid for two more years, can you afford the penalty fee?”

Clearly, they didn't have that kind of money. If they wanted to switch teams, it would have to be paid by Lin Da, the captain of Phoenix Tail Flower.

But clearly, Lin Da, just starting out, did not have ample funds.

A while later.

“No need to see us out, take care and heal your injuries as soon as possible.”

At the entrance, Lin Da and Kafni said goodbye.

As Oru and Klyne watched them leave, staring at Lin Da's silhouette, Oru couldn't help but lament:

“Ah, it would be nice if Brother Lin Da could return to the team. Klyne, do you want to try persuading the captain again?”

“Her? I get annoyed just seeing her now.” Klyne's face turned sallow, “That kind of captain doesn't treat team members as human beings.”

“Moreover, Lin Da won't come back.” Klyne sighed, “He has his own team now, how could he possibly come back?”

“Right.” Oru scratched his head awkwardly, “Then let's just get through these two years, wait out our contract, and then join Brother Lin Da.”

“But I'm really scared.” Klyne shivered and nestled in Oru's arms, a worried look in her eyes, “The higher floors of the World Tree are becoming increasingly dangerous. Lia still needs to reach the 15th floor in three months. Is our team really okay? I'm afraid that one day I will lose you.”

Death is commonplace for adventurers in the World Tree.

The population of White Dove City was around a million decades ago, and it has only decreased over time, making it hard to find anyone over fifty years old in the city.

Adventurers gain everything in the World Tree and lose everything in the World Tree.

“Don't worry, I, Oru, will definitely protect you!”

Oru promised emphatically, thumping his chest with his left hand.

“Mhm.” Klyne's cheeks flushed red, and then Oru picked her up, closed the doors and windows, and slowly, strange noises began to emanate from the room.

After leaving the wealthy neighborhood, Lin Da and Kafni boarded a carriage bound for Red Heart City.

Both were eager to find the next team member and officially start their adventure in the World Tree.

Though Lulu is strong, the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team's current level is zero. Lulu can only enter the Public Grand Secret Realm, and such minor secret realms, having been visited once, are of no help to them.

On a modest small bed inside the carriage, Lin Da laid down, resting his arm as a pillow, looking up at the dark canvas above, thinking to himself:

The moment he had kicked Lulu out of the team was in the early versions when the World Tree reached the 15th floor. That means, only after reaching the 15th floor, could Lulu officially join the minor secret realm's adventure.

Before then, they still needed to find another team member.

Thinking back to the information Lulu had provided about the 15th-level Mage, who resided in Red Heart City and was somewhat shy, he realized he needed to be more cordial when inviting him.

Lin Da had also learned that this person, like him, had changed professions. Three years ago, he was a 20th-level warrior who took massive risks to switch to the Mage profession.

Attaining level 15 again in three years, Lin Da respected his talent.

The carriage left White Dove City and entered the wilderness.

Red Heart City wasn't far away; they could get there overnight.

For this journey, Lin Da had spent a hundred gold coins on carriage fare.

The roads in the wilderness were rough, and the carriage jolted vigorously. Next to Lin Da, Kafni's sleeping posture was poor, as a long leg or arm would frequently invade his space.

Though Kafni was a Scrap God, she indeed had plump, soft arms and legs. As an Old Mage who had never been indulgent, Lin Da's self-control was severely tested.

He reminded himself sternly not to lose control, for if he accidentally wet his pants due to a dream, and Kafni found out, that would truly be embarrassing.

On another note, should he also consider getting a girlfriend? Lin Da remembered the visit to Oru's place, where Klyne clung to Oru like a little bird, and he felt a bit envious.

If the person with him today was not Kafni but a girlfriend, then they could really spice things up in the carriage.

That night, Lin Da slept restlessly, his dreams intermittent.

He dreamt a girl crawled into his blankets, her face unclear. At first, he thought it was Aiko, who placed his hand atop something soft,

just as he was about to make a move, the figure turned into Lulu, her icy eyes staring at him, which scared him so much that he immediately lost all inappropriate thoughts.

But upon closer inspection, the girl's appearance in his arms changed again, this time to a brown-haired Big Lolita, wrapping around him like an octopus in distress, timidly whispering:

“Lord Captain, please don't abandon me…”
