Chapter 379 The Safest One

This voice was very familiar, with a hint of certainty in the question and a hint of rigor in the teasing. If it wasn't Yura, who could it be?

She has a fair and beautiful face, long straight blue hair, and a pair of radiant eyes under her serious eyes, but these eyes are set off by a serious face, just like the Sanwu girl in the anime, No words, no heart, no expression.

"Hi~" I smiled and said hello to her, and she looked me up and down and said, "I haven't seen you for a day. You seem to be a lot haggard. Tell your sister, what happened?"

Without looking at her playful and ambiguous eyes, I scratched my head and said, "I slept late yesterday."

"Huh?" Yura narrowed his eyes, and his expressionless face became more intimidating: "Go to bed late? What did you do? Did you do something shameful and embarrassing?"

"Don't talk nonsense." I interrupted her crazy thinking and said, "I didn't do anything shameful. I just exercised at night and chatted with others about 'homely life'."

"Only in this way?"

"Only in this way."

I affirmed.

Yura's expression softened slightly, and he just snorted slightly.

Harold interrupted at the right time: "An Xiaoyi, I'm going to go deeper into the 19th floor today, will you come?"

"Come on, of course I will come." I curled my lips: "Otherwise, what would I do if I went directly to the 19th floor?"

Seeing Harold nodded slightly, I asked again: "I say, Harold, have you completed your transformation mission?"

"No, we are doing it."

"Then hurry up," I said. "It will be too late when we reach level 11."

Harold waved his hand: "It doesn't matter, I've already sent someone to help me collect things."

"Oh, it turns out to be a collection mission." I was a little disappointed. It seemed that there was no way to squeeze money out of him for the time being.

Harold seemed to see my intention and said with a smile: "I can't ask you to help me complete all tasks. Good steel is used on the blade. Whenever I encounter such a difficult task, I still I’ll ask you for it.”

"Okay," I said, "Then let's go deep into killing monsters."

Accompanying Harold and his party, they headed to the deeper locations on the 19th floor, and kept traveling through the deeper caves.

Among the ghost-faced spiders here, there are more elite ones, fewer ordinary ones, and even fewer giant ones, because they all live in the deepest part of the cave.

Harold and I took the lead, and the others followed Yura's command and stayed behind.

Without Yura following us, Harold and I were chatting in low voices while killing monsters to our heart's content.

"I heard that you went to the civilian area yesterday" I asked first.

Harold was startled, and then said: "With so much information, it would be a pity not to join an intelligence organization."

"Don't interrupt," I said, "Are you going to see your old lover?"

"What an old lover?" Harold felt a little unnatural and casually hacked a ghost-faced spider to death and said, "I just went to do some personal things."

I chuckled, but I knew something in my heart: it must be an old lover.

Harold, who was a little unnatural, forcibly changed the subject and said to me: "Do you know who is the boss behind the guild you slaughtered yesterday?"

"Isn't it the second young master?" I said without caring, "Those guys have already explained everything."

"So you already know," Harold said, "Then do you know why I came so early today?"

I cut a ghost-faced spider in half before replying: "Why?"

Harold sighed: "It's not because of this trap you stabbed that you killed all the people in a guild. But in the early morning this morning, before dawn, the second young master came to me directly and urged me to do my best. Please do it and arrest the suspect as soon as possible."

"Hey, what are you going to do?"

I asked with a chuckle.

"What else can we do?" Harold glared at me fiercely: "Of course, ignore him. I am the city lord's man, he is not the city lord, and the city lord has already made a decision on this coup."

"What decision?"

"Just wait and see what happens," Harold said: "The city lord will not participate in the disputes between the younger generations. Those who have strength will definitely survive. As for those who are not strong enough, even if they die, he doesn't care."

"Well, your city lord is really a hard-hearted person." I nodded and smoothly cut off the leg of a ghost-faced spider that wanted to attack me.

"He just doesn't care," Harold said, "Do you know how many children the city lord has?"

I shook my head.

"Forty-one!"

"F*ck!" The dirty words blurted out directly: "Forty-one, your city lord is a stallion or a pig, so good!"

Harold was a little embarrassed and said: "I am neither a stallion nor a breeding pig, but these past city lords are quite lustful."

"Damn, is lustful enough to be justified?" I rolled my eyes at him and asked, "Then how many wives does he have?"

"Sixteen" Harold thought for a moment and said, "and four mistresses."

I'm speechless, man, for this reason, I no longer have the right to care about his character and morality, because no matter what you say, you can't cover up the fact that he has already played in the world.

Now, he may have been squeezed dry a long time ago and has no expectations of continuing to live. The only thing he thinks about may be to see which child will take his place in the end.

I turned around and said to Harold: "I heard from Rodney that he only has two older brothers and no younger brother."

"Yes, he didn't lie."

I was surprised and said: "Then let's put it this way."

"You are right," Harold said calmly: "The other male heirs are all dead."

"Let me tell you, what kind of rhythm is this?" I said in a joking tone, "Gong Dou?"

Harold hacked to death two ghost-faced spiders one after another, and then he took a breath and said, "What did you say, palace?"

"Oh, it's a phenomenon where a candidate heir takes action against other heirs in order to have a greater chance of obtaining the right to inherit."

Harold nodded and said, "Well, you're right in your explanation. That's what happened."

"So it seems that Rodney is also in danger?"

He swung his sword to block the attack of a ghost-faced spider that rushed forward. I chopped the ghost-faced spider into two pieces. Only then did he have some time to spare and said, "There is indeed danger, but it's not that urgent yet."

"How do you say this?"

"Although he is also a candidate for heir, because he has been wandering around the dungeon all year round to kill monsters, the second young master and the eldest young master have changed their views on him, thinking that he is just a kid who likes to kill monsters," Harold said solemnly. : "So, given the current situation, the dispute between the eldest young master and the second young master is the most urgent, and Rodney is the safest one."
