After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 666 - 474, Major Task, Yavis Ancient City_2
Chapter 666: 474, Major Task, Yavis Ancient City_2
At this moment, the gloomy girl looked at Taige and gestured at her throat, stammering out her words.
“Huh? Mingli, are you cursing me?”
Taige, with her arms akimbo, glared with wide eyes and said, “Do you also want to be beaten by me? Don’t think that just because we’re old teammates I’ll go easy on you.”
If Lin Da were here, he would definitely recognize the two of them.
The girl with a stutter was named Mingli, known by the title “Black Scissors.”
About half a year ago, she seemed to recognize his identity as Dark Shadow and has held a grudge against him for “always abandoning her.” She pulled out a huge pair of scissors and viciously attacked below his waist.
Fortunately, his sister was there at the time. With a thrust of her spear, she pierced Mingli, who writhed in pain and fled, thus averting the crisis.
Now, half a year later, Mingli’s wounds seemed to have healed, not only could she walk as usual, but she could also hunt Magical Creatures.
As for the other Tigerman girl, Taige…
Embarrassingly, Lin Da wasn’t familiar with her.
“Mystic Continent,” this game’s character pool, follows a double UP system, showcasing two characters at once, usually one strong and one weak.
Lin Da mainly wanted to draw the Water Series powerhouse, White Cat Swordsman Bailuo, while the Fire Series Fighter Taige belonged to the extremely standard Five-star strength.
Stronger than a Four-star but not by much.
Since there were better Fire Series characters available, Lin Da just tossed Taige into the warehouse.
“No, no, no, no, no, I don’t want, to be beaten up!” Seeing Taige raise her fist, Mingli became anxious, and her stutter worsened, “I, I-I-I’m saying, the boss, it-it-it’s not me!”
“Big Shot? Who’s that, you think every city called Black Mamba has a Big Shot gorilla? Mingli, that’s not funny!”
“Boss! I mean, the boss, the old team leader!”
Mingli actually managed to say a complete sentence. It seemed that as long as the “gentle” shadow loomed in her mind, she wasn’t as nervous.
“The boss…?”
Taige hesitated with her fist, then suddenly, it came crashing down on Mingli’s head, forming a big lump.
The Tigerman girl laughed heartily, “How could it be, the boss has been missing for so long, he must be dead. It’s actually good that such a heartless guy died, isn’t it? Locking up someone as powerful as me in a tiny dark room, humph, if I hadn’t chosen not to step out and beat him up, I would’ve made him beg for mercy long ago.”
“Uh…”
Mingli thought to herself that Dark Shadow had given Taige a chance, but Taige had been so frightened she peed her pants and returned to the dark room on her own volition.
All members whom Dark Shadow considered useless were locked away in there, and there were many dark rooms, coincidentally Mingli and Taige shared one.

“He, he, he’s in White Dove City, right?” Mingli said.
“Don’t bring up Lin Da again, I’ve met him, and he’s definitely not that type of person,” Taige laughed, waving her hand dismissively, “Bailuo knows the boss so well and says it’s not him. You think you’re more impressive than her? She’s only a whisker away from the Sacred Rank, a big shot who has killed more Magical Creatures than you’ve eaten rice. If she says no, it is definitely not him.”
Mingli was at a loss for words, scratching her ears and cheeks anxiously.
“I, I, I have evidence!”
“What?”
“Gi-girl’s, a girl’s intuition.”
Taige curled her lip in taunt, “You call yourself a girl with that dirty mop of hair? You’re a dung beetle that has just rolled a dung ball and didn’t even wash your hands.”
“Wah!”
With that, Mingli was completely thrown off.
“I’m not going to argue with you anymore, let’s go to a deeper area. I’ve saved up over 50 demonic horns, just 10 more and I should be able to make a wish for a Skill Book boon.”
Taige kneaded her fists, grinning viciously, “Whenever I see Demons, it’s kill, kill, kill! I’m the Bursting Tiger from the Moon Rank leaderboard, with a bounty of 300,000 Purple Gold Coins! Wahaha!”
The members of the Dark Flame Adventure Group looked at each other.
They all felt that if Taige didn’t find herself a savvier strategist soon, she’d end up dying in the Great Mystery Continent.
Always charging at the sight of someone, she was far too reckless.
Surviving till today was 90% luck and the remaining 10% sheer dumb luck.
…
At the same time.
On the outskirts of the Ten Thousand Mountains, a blue light flashed by.
The six members of the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team stepped out from it.
“Level 20, I’m back,” Lin Da said, clutching the Aweis Badge with a solemn expression looking ahead.
The mountains stretched endlessly, like ancient beasts lurking in the darkness, watching with their majestic eyes every adventurer preparing to venture within.
There were countless treasures inside that could elevate an adventurer to the Light Rank overnight, yet hidden dangers lurked, devouring every greedy soul.
In a departure from his normal behavior, Lin Da insisted on entering level 20 again.
Once you reach the Moon Rank, the more you seek stability, the more dangerous it becomes.
In secret, he was being targeted by Demons. In public, Coldmoon Duke Evelyn and McCarthy were preparing to make things difficult for him.
Volgan, a battle-maniac, also had his eyes on him, and his sister was up to something in Cyan City, remaining elusive…
Seeking stability in such a situation would be no different than waiting for death.
Lin Da’s only goal was to advance to the Light Rank as quickly as possible!
He looked up at the night sky.
A crescent moon hung high, its pure white moonlight spilled onto the ground.
Lin Da held up the Aweis Badge.
Humming…
A slight tremble emanated from within the badge.
The snake’s eyes suddenly lit up, casting a purple beam of light.
The beam pointed straight into the depths of the mountain.
By its location, it seemed to be the Sixfold Mountain.
“Sixfold Mountain…”
Lin Da pondered briefly.
With the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team’s strength, they could single-handedly defeat a demon boss of the Sixfold Mountain. For them, the Sixfold Mountain was not forbidden ground.
If worst comes to worst, they could only…
Lin Da quickly shook his head; under no circumstances should he use the Shadow of Darkness Experience Card unless it was absolutely necessary.
“Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team, let’s go!”
Following the guide of the purple light, Lin Da and his companions spread their wings and flew toward the mountains!
…
In the blink of an eye, four hours had passed.
“This is the place.”
In the Sixfold Mountain Region, Lin Da squatted on the ground and lifted a piece of turf.
This area, surrounded by several large mountains forming a valley, was covered with thigh-high weeds, obscuring the view.
Lin Da had followed the badge’s guidance to this area.
The pale purple light emitted by the snake’s head shone on a patch of grass, which Lin Da had lifted to reveal a smooth stone slab underneath.
The team members formed a circle, curiously watching.
Engraved on the stone slab was a pattern very similar to that of the Aweis Badge, with a black serpent coiled on a throne, a crown atop its head, and a red cape behind it. A female serpent in a pink dress snuggled up to its thigh.
Given the female serpent’s lavish attire, she was clearly a princess or someone of similar status. Beneath the throne, serpent ministers knelt in two rows, their expressions reverent.
“This is Aweis’s Guardian Divine Beast, the ‘World Devouring Magic Snake,’ also called the ‘World-Devouring Demon Snake.'”
A tension gripped Lin Da’s heart.
According to his speculation, if such a creature awakened to its full form, it would be level 90 or above.
Only a Legendary Adventurer could defeat it.
What he had triggered must be a side mission of the Aweis Dynasty.
After all, considering the mission’s location was on the 20th floor, no matter the danger, the difficulty would not be too outrageous.
Humming.
The Aweis Badge in Lin’s hand vibrated, attracted by the stone slab on the ground.
Looking closely, there was a depression in the center, into which it seemed he had to place the badge.
Lin Da signaled his teammates to be on guard, lest a demon suddenly emerge.
He slowly inserted the Aweis Badge into the depression.
Click.
A crisp sound.
The badge and the stone slab fit together seamlessly.
Boom—
Without warning, a purple pillar of light descended from the sky, striking the center of the stone slab!
As if an invisible giant hand grasped the sides of the earth and tore it apart, the ground shook violently, and fissures appeared under Lin Da and his team’s feet.
Monica nearly fell in but was saved by Lin Da’s quick reflexes, as he grabbed her by the head and pulled her into his embrace.
“Captain, what, what’s happening?” Monica’s small frame trembled as she spoke in panic.
Lin Da was also filled with astonishment; the tasks related to Aweis in the game were uncharted, and his prescience briefly failed him.
The cracks in the ground grew wider, and the surrounding mountains trembled, with stones tumbling down in an apocalyptic scene.
Something seemed to be burrowing out from underneath the ground.
“No matter what, we need to get out of here first!”
Lin Da gritted his teeth and, along with his teammates, flew into the air.
[System Prompt: You have triggered the large-scale mission ‘Yavis Ancient City’!]
