Chapter 96: Guarding the Dungeon
Seeing Lu Xun jumping into the well so calmly, Ji Li closed her eyes and jumped in as well.
Then, she felt as if her body had pierced through a thick membrane, and with a "puff", the force of her falling was cushioned.
Then, the body was wrapped by a warm air flow and slowly pulled to the ground.
So amazing!
When she opened her eyes, she was shocked by everything she saw!
This place is like a world at the bottom of a well that was opened up out of nowhere!
She saw a huge stone gate, but she didn't know what was inside.
The surrounding area is very empty and there are several small houses built.
"Is the underground of Qingling City empty?" Ji Li said in his heart.
She was not wrong. The area below Qingling City... was indeed empty.
According to legend, this is a big city built on the shell of a black tortoise. This is not a legend but a fact.
Therefore, the place where they are now is actually inside the turtle shell!
The inside of the turtle shell is empty.
It is also obvious that this black turtle should have some connection with the Demon Sect, but even Lu Xun doesn’t know much about this aspect. Perhaps there are hidden plots that have not yet been developed by the players.
There are disciples of the Demon Sect guarding [Turtle's Longevity], but there are not many of them and they are not very strong. They are responsible for handling some miscellaneous matters.
The most important guardian is the [Guardian]!
As soon as they saw someone appear, the patrolling disciples immediately stepped forward to question him.
Lu Xun took out the badge of his small study in the back mountain, and immediately there was a sound of salutes.
"Greetings to Junior Uncle-Master!"
Lu Xun’s identity is very easy to recognize, the badge on the small study in the back mountain + his unparalleled appearance = the junior master uncle of the Demon Sect.
The sound of saluting startled the guards. A black light flashed, and a man in a black robe appeared in front of Lu Xun. The man looked very strange, with a protruding mouth, and it was the kind of protrusion that was flat.
He and Shen Yan are both bald, but he has eyebrows, while Shen Yan doesn't even have eyelashes, let alone eyebrows.
These two boiled eggs can be compared online to see who is uglier, and both are ugly in their own way.
This is the [Guardian] in [The Turtle's Longevity]. He is not a human, but a monster, a crocodile monster.
According to legend, he had received favors from his senior brother Yan Li, so in order to repay his kindness, he came here to serve as a guard, and he did so for many years.
Although he looks ugly, his strength is unfathomable, and he and Yan Li are equals. Anyway, with him around, [Turtle's Longevity] has never had any problems.
"Old Crocodile." All the disciples saluted him and usually called him Old Crocodile.
Old Crocodile looked Lu Xun up and down, and couldn't help but sigh in amazement, saying: "Are you the master's new disciple? Good boy, you are more handsome than Yan Li, tut tut."
His voice is a little loud and a little shrill.
Then, he seemed to remember something and said to Lu Xun: "Boy, are you doing well in the back mountain? Hehe!"
There was something amusing in Mr. Crocodile's expression.
"Thank you, Mr. E, for your concern. I'm fine. The two senior sisters treat me very well." Lu Xun replied with a smile.
"Two senior sisters? Isn't the master in the back mountain?" Old Crocodile was stunned for a moment.
"Yes, sir, he hasn't returned to the mountain yet." Lu Xun answered honestly.
"No wonder, no wonder." Old Crocodile said without any context.
Lu Xun didn't quite understand.
It seems that I live a comfortable life because my husband is not in the back mountain?
But what does this have to do with me being more handsome than the senior brother?
However, the old crocodile did not seem to have any intention of discussing this issue in depth. Even behind his back, no one dared to talk about him, and the same went for the big monster.
"Boy, are you and this girl going to break through?" asked Old Crocodile.
Lu Xun nodded.
"Who will go first?" asked Old Crocodile again.
Lu Xun wanted to let him go first, but Ji Li spoke first: "Senior, I want to go first!"
The reason why Ji Li wanted to come first was because she noticed that there were wooden signs hanging on the wall with names written on them, a bit like... a ranking list?
Yes, the rankings.
There are a total of one hundred places . As long as you perform well enough in the process of passing the levels, you can be on the list.
Ji Li wanted to help Lu Xun explore the way first, and then tell him the details inside. This should be helpful for him to pass the level, and maybe he can rank higher on the leaderboard.
This silly girl thinks that Lu Xun is of noble status, and if his ranking is not high, he would probably feel a little embarrassed, right?
She didn't know that Lu Xun had some understanding of the specific situation in [Turtle's Longevity]. He had read several related posts and was mentally prepared.
But he will definitely be on this list.
Not only do you have to do it, you have to do it hard!
Because as long as you can make the list, the game will give you rewards, and the higher your ranking on the list, the richer the reward!
Generally, experience points are given. Although [Turtle's Longevity] is a copy that can only be entered by players below level 20, the experience points reward are really not low!
Lu Xun is very short of experience now, he wants to reach level ten as soon as possible, skip the stage of eating air, and enter the initial stage, so that he can fly!
"When the time comes, I will be able to ride on the magic weapon to fly into the sky and into the earth. It makes me happy just thinking about it." He said in his heart.
Since Ji Li wanted to go first, Lu Xun had no objection. Instead, he paid attention to the names on the leaderboard.
It seems that Xiao Ran has made it through and is ranked second. He is worthy of being the number one seed of Luo Tian Sect and the future chief disciple. He came to someone else 's trial site to make it through and still managed to get second place.
Fortunately, the first place still belongs to the Demon Sect, otherwise it would be very embarrassing.
As for the one ranked first, Lu Xun was even more familiar with him.
The first one is Gu Xiaoman, Lu Xun’s second senior sister.
So far, she is the only one who has made it through the level directly!
It seems that this copy has a long history, even the second senior sister has been here.
And Mao Nanbei has never been to [Turtle's Longevity], which is understandable. When she transformed, her strength was already above the second level, and she did not meet the requirements to pass the level.
As for why the third brother had never been here, Lu Xun didn't know. Zhuge Laifu, the third brother from the back mountain, there was no reason why he wouldn't be on the list after coming here, right?
Under the guidance of the disciples of the Demon Sect, Ji Li walked into the stone gate and officially began her trial. After chatting with Lu Xun for a few more words, Crocodile disappeared, and no one knew where he went.
Lu Xun was bored waiting alone, so he found a place to sit on the ground and closed his eyes.
He seemed to be meditating, but in fact he was browsing forums, addicted to surfing the Internet to see if there was anything interesting.
“Alas, there are fewer and fewer girls posting photos on the forums recently, but there is a surge in cross-dressing men. What’s wrong with this society?” Lu Xun sighed as he browsed the forums.
Soon, a post that quickly became popular caught his attention.
The number of comments on this post was increasing rapidly, and it suddenly became popular in the entire forum.
This level of popularity is almost as high as the time when the Knights Guild released Lu Xun’s beautiful photos on the forum.
After Lu Xun took a look at the title, he immediately became extremely interested!
