The Elven Empress's question may seem ordinary at first glance, but it is actually difficult to answer.

She's testing my relationship with the Fairy Empress!

I thought for a moment and said, "Your Excellency, you should ask the Fairy Empress this question, not me, I am just an elder of the outer clan of Moonlight City, I only have the right to participate, not the right to decide, I hope you understand." ”

The Elven Empress pondered and said, "Well, I owe it to me, and I apologize to you here." ”

"No, you don't need to apologize," I said, "You are also thinking about the community of Moonlight City, as an elder of the foreign clan, I understand you very well. ”

The Empress nodded slightly, was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "If the Fairy Empress sends goblins to participate in the construction of science and technology, how much do you think should be sent by my side?" ”

She paused and added, "Is it the same number of members she's sending, or should it be slightly more, or maybe less?" ”

"This ......," I hurriedly stood up, bowed my head, and said, "I'm very sorry, Your Majesty, but I can't answer this question to you either. ”

After that, I raised my head, looked at the empress, and said slowly: "As an elder of the foreign clan, the scope of my mission is mainly related to matters related to the foreigners, and now the goblin assistance team has agreed to participate in the construction of Moonlight City's science and technology, and my task has been successfully completed, as for how many people you and the fairy queen plan to send to participate in it, this is a matter for the two of you, and I have no right to interfere." ”

"What if I give you that right now?" The Elven Empress asked.

"You know, my specialty is not politics, I'm just an adventurer, I became a foreign elder by the Empress's love, for this position, to be honest, I feel sincerely afraid, for fear that I will make a mistake and insult the reputation of Moonlight City, and at the same time insult your love, so in this kind of matter that determines the future development and fate of Moonlight City, it is better for you to discuss with the elders at the meeting."

At my words, the Elven Empress fell silent again.

This time there was silence for more than a minute, and the atmosphere fell into awkwardness for a while.

Finally, she spoke: "Elder An Xiaoyi, why do I feel that the distance between you and me is slowly drifting apart? ”

"That's just your delusion, Your Majesty," I said respectfully.

"Really?" The elven queen did not move her lips, and the sound she made was like the sound of a mosquito.

She seemed to be speaking to me, and as if she were speaking to herself.

But it doesn't matter who you say it to.

When I saw that the Elven Empress was silent for a long time, I got up and took my leave.

Before leaving, I glanced at the Elven Empress and saw that she was still brooding, but her expression was more lonely.

......

......

Leaving the palace, I hurried home, packed my gear, and headed straight for the dungeon.

Now that the Zephyr Championship is running out, I need to work out a general battle strategy in just a few days, and as for the slight changes that occur during the battle, I can only adjust them slightly during the engagement.

When I arrived at the eighteenth floor, I was so tired that I was panting, I wiped the sweat from my forehead, looked up and looked around, but I didn't see any of them in the phoenix.

Hey? Am I staggering?

I was the first to question myself, frowning and pondering, when I heard a loud bang not far away, and a sandworm screamed and was killed by some elves.

Seeing this scene, I'm sure that this must be the eighteenth floor, but, phoenix, they?

Did you go to the seventeenth floor?

I ran back a level, and there was still no one.

The sixteenth floor?

That was the first thought that popped into my head, but almost at the same time, it was rejected by me.

No way, it's absolutely impossible.

Phoenix, like me, has the blood of adventure in their bones, and they will definitely not fight further and further, but only fight further and further.

So...... The nineteenth floor?

The Ghost-Faced Spider?!

I spread my feet, boosted my horsepower, and ran towards the nineteenth portal.

In the process of running wildly, one thought after another kept popping up in my mind: yes, it must be, they must be farming on the nineteenth floor!

The main reason why I was able to determine this matter instantly was that there was an extra Bai Yunying in the team!

This little girl who can still slightly beat Emily in absolute strength, with her help, Phoenix and their group of guys who have long been ready to move on the nineteenth layer will definitely try their best to get what they want!

Although to Bai Yunying, the Ghost-Faced Spider is the kind of monster that can be eliminated with the snap of his fingers, but for the Phoenix, the Ghost-Faced Spider is very deadly, except for Godot.

Bai Yunying is a magician, and her nerves are still very big, what if when she dozes off, a ghost-faced spider suddenly launches a sneak attack and hurts the people in the team?

Although there is an excellent high-level priest like Godot in charge, what if the injured position is fatal!

Damn, the more I think about it, the more anxious I become, the more nervous I become, but don't have an accident!

While I was running wildly, I had unsheathed both the Great Tai Knife and the repaired Zhi Tai Knife, holding the Zhi Tai Knife in my right hand and dragging the Great Tai Knife in my left hand, and at the same time, spreading the killing intent, my legs used strength again, and I ran towards the portal at a more violent speed.

In the middle, a sandworm that didn't look at the atmosphere of the occasion broke out of the ground, thinking that I was a lamb sent to the door, but in the blink of an eye, it was split in two from its belly, one was left in the soil, the other was stuck in the air for a while, and then it fell to the ground with a bang.

All I heard was the roar of the other part of its body as it landed, and I didn't care if it was dead or not.

Rushing into the nineteenth floor, I saw more than a dozen ghost-faced spiders that had just broken through the ground, and ghost-faced spiders were born in many ways, among which breaking through the ground was one of them.

The ghost-faced spider that had just broken out of the ground, its whole body was still gray, and the patterns on its body were not so hideous and terrifying, and while the bones of the eight big eyes were spinning, the huge and sharp chelica slowly opened to the sides, and a piercing hiss continued to come out of their mouths.

I hated the sounds, so I decided to get rid of them all.

The legs exerted force, and their bodies rushed forward at a violent speed again, and the moment they staggered past the newborn ghost-faced spiders, their gray bodies were split into two pieces by the pitch-black double blades one by one, and at the same time as the earthy yellow slurry gushed out, their bodies gradually turned into black ash and dissipated without a trace.

With the ghost-faced spiders gone, the entrance to the cave was clear, and only the cold wind was still noisy.

Looking back at the ground, there wasn't even a single copper coin, and I couldn't help but sigh, if I waited a few more minutes, and after a dozen ghost-faced spiders had completed the process from birth to adulthood, and then killed them all together, maybe there would be a few silver and copper coins.

I was secretly blaming myself, cold, I came back to my senses, stretched out my hand and slapped myself: Damn, I forgot the purpose of my trip again!
