Chapter 400 319. White Cat against Lulu, Lin Da educates Lia_2

Lulu pondered for a while before finally making a decision.

"I can help you, but on one condition: you have to enter the sealed tenth level and bring back a few people for me."

Bailuo raised an eyebrow:

&"Using [Boundary-breaking Secret Sword*10th Level] should be no problem. It was a prize from last year's assessment conference, and it happens to come in handy. However, forcibly entering the sealed Great Mystery Continent requires precise timing. We must enter when the Great Mystery Continent is in its safest state. If there is [Frost] [Acid Rain] or similar weather, the boundary breaking might fail.

Miss Lulu, right? I hope you haven't deceived me and indeed have a lead on the teacher's whereabouts."

Bailuo finished the last bit of his coffee with a grimace, glanced at Lulu, and said sternly, "Those who deceive the dean do not fare well!"

As the White Cat Swordsman, one of Bailuo's innate abilities was to transform into a white cat, significantly increasing his agility. Even if Lulu was from the Werewolf Clan, she couldn't dodge his attacks.

"Don't worry. Once you bring back the people I specified, I'll let you 'meet' the captain."

Lulu confidently said.

...

...

The sealed tenth level of the Great Mystery Continent, Dragon Forest.

"The burning power in my eyes, you must know what it is, right?"

In the depths of the cave at night, as he was half-asleep, Lin Da heard Lia's voice from under the blankets.

He held Lia's waist, feeling the slight vibrations her body produced as she spoke.

The captain, who was immensely arrogant and always treated him like a beast of burden, now lay in his arms.

With this thought, a strange feeling surfaced, and the drowsiness he had finally achieved quietly dissipated.

How can one rest well like this?

Alas, Lulu and Monica have not been found yet. I must make another stone bed. Otherwise, even if five people squeeze together tightly like a jigsaw puzzle, there won't be enough space to sleep.

Lin Da was plunged into a sweet dilemma.

The extra weight was either due to Tasya or Lia; he could no longer tell.

"Hey, how should I use the power in my eyes?"

In the blanket, Lia shifted a bit, facing Lin Da, her large eyes glittering with a longing for power.

Her breath lightly misted Lin Da's face, making it moist; the fragrance of her hair was distinctly noticeable.

Luckily, it was pitch dark and Lia's body was all under the covers, with only her head exposed, which eased the awkwardness between them.

Lin Da took a deep breath, trying to stop his mind from wandering.

Approaching Lia in such a straightforward manner, not only would she look down on him, but he would also despise himself. As a pure love team captain, Lin Da planned to spend his first time with the team members. If anything happened with Lia and others like Lulu found out, they would surely be disappointed.

In other words, Lin Da's head was able to control his desires, which is a quality of a top-notch adventurer.

He pondered Lia's words for a moment and slowly replied, "To use that fire power, I think you should follow what your heart truly believes is the right path."

"Find the most important thing in your heart, trust it, and protect it. Then, your fire will surely respond to your call."

Lia hesitated: "The most important thing, is it Gold Coins?"

"I don't think so."

Lin Da said helplessly.

"Uh, is it my mother? If I become a strong adventurer, Bellini would be proud of me, right?"

"That's for you to decide. The most cherished and important thing in your heart. Only that can stir your fire."

"It's my fire, why do you understand it so well?"

Lia looked at him, puzzled.

"A secret."

Lin Da closed his eyes and said, "Let's sleep now, the night is already half over."

"Okay."

Lia pondered for an hour about the matter of the fire before she fell asleep.

What is the most important thing in her heart?

The last time she felt that fire was when she fought the Snake People Chieftain to protect Aiko and others.

Could it be that the most important thing to her is Aiko?!

Lia was almost startled awake.

...

Before they knew it, fifteen days had passed since the tenth sealed level of the Great Mystery Continent had been closed.

After that night, Lin Da hurriedly made a second stone bed.

He slept cuddled up with Tasya and Lia, which was comfortable, but it became tiring after a whole night.

His arms were sore from being pressed all night, and he was so energetic that he wanted to find a place to vent.

After much thought, Lin Da decided to sleep in separate beds, letting Tasya and Lia sleep together while he slept on another one.

One night, he and Tasya played some acupressure massage games secretly while Lia was asleep, which turned out to be quite thrilling.

The next morning, Lia had no idea.

When Lin Da and Tasya smiled knowingly after breakfast, it confused Lia, who thought they had eaten fish without her and argued with them for a while about it.

In addition, the weather had been quite nice over those five days.

Apart from two days of "Acid Rain" and one scorching day that nearly roasted them, the other two days were relatively normal.

That afternoon, a thin red fog blanketed the forest.

Lin Da, who was scouting for traces of Magical Creatures in the tree, was instantly delighted.

"It's a foggy day!"

In such weather, the perception abilities of both Magical Creatures and adventurers decreased several folds.

This allowed them to make a move on that Serpent People camp.

A Serpent People camp was stationed by the riverbank.

Discovered by Lin Da two days ago.

According to his observations, there were ten dark fruit trees growing near the riverbank, with the fruits roughly numbering over 200.

With these fruits, they wouldn't have to worry for the remaining half of the month; both their survival chances and safety level would greatly improve.

The only challenge was the number of Magical Creatures in the Serpent People camp, with the lowest being level 28, including more than 10 at level 30.

And one Epic-level 1-star, a level 31 Two-Headed Serpent Chieftain with formidable strength.

Lin Da had been observing for several days and hadn't found a good opportunity to strike, so he had to reluctantly keep it in mind.

Now with the arrival of "foggy day," the Serpent People's perception was diminished.

He had already been hiding up in a large tree and had memorized the terrain while bird-watching.

Even with low visibility and poorer perception abilities, the terrain was already imprinted in Lin Da's mind.

If not now, when? The best opportunity had already appeared!

Returning to the cave on the cliff, the three of them met up.

After hearing Lin Da's analysis, all thought it was a suitable time to strike.

After eating, they headed toward the Serpent People camp located to the south under Lin Da's lead.

...

"Like this, then like this... finally like that..."

Along the way, Lin Da repeated the battle plan over and over.

It was mainly for Lia's benefit.

Tasya was not only a Professional Maid but also a reassuring member of the adventure team.

Tell her once and Tasya would mostly remember, like a top-performing child in class, which always brought a smile to Lin Da's face.

Compared to her, Lia was like the student who sits at the back of the class.

He patiently explained the plan, forcing Lia to memorize it.

Only after hearing Lia's recital did Lin Da nod in satisfaction, "Not bad, you can make it if you're willing to put in the effort."

"Just don't think of this miss as an idiot!" Lia said proudly.

It took an hour and a half for the three to arrive near the riverbank.

They stooped low, hiding in the bushes and approaching the Serpent People camp.

Because it was "foggy day," there was pale red fog everywhere, with visibility at most three meters.

From Lin Da's position, he could only dimly see the campfire in the distance and the vague outlines of tents in the Serpent People camp.

The exact name for them was "Aweis Serpent Soldiers," remnants of the ancient Aweis Dynasty.

Their ancestors were hybrids of humans and Magical Snakes, and their impure bloodline subjected them to scorn.

Thousands of years ago, they launched a war of aggression against adventurers and, as you can guess, it only took a month for the Aweis Dynasty to become a speck of dust in history.

And today, they appeared in the Great Mystery Continent under the guise of trialing Magical Creatures.

Lin Da and the others held their breath as they crawled, tiptoeing over to a Snake-man Soldier holding a torch and looking into the distance.
