Chapter 267: Underground Military Camp
In the middle of the night, Zhao Yuxin took the branch given by the Evil Daba Demon Tree back to the carriage to conduct research.
The others gathered together to chat and drink; except for Zhu Zhiquan and Gelina who were training together, the entire atmosphere was very relaxed and pleasant.
On the outermost perimeter, plants arranged by Zhao Yuxin were responsible for security, while Durian Warriors and Hook-Lock Tree Demons patrolled the surroundings; once they discovered any powerful monsters approaching, they would pass on the message.
"Haha~ eat slowly, little one." Li Yue watched Xuebao devouring its food and smiled: "Is your name Xuebao?"
"Mm~" Xuebao responded happily, then sniffed Li Yue with its nose, attempting to memorize her scent.
"So well-behaved." Li Yue looked at Xuebao's appearance, revealing a motherly smile.
Liu Yuchang adjusted his glasses and asked in confusion: "Speaking of which, what breed is it exactly? Looking at it like this, it's like a cactus spliced with the shape of a dog; no matter how you look at it, it feels strange."
Huang Jing grilled a chicken wing for Xuebao, then completely ignored Xuebao sniffing her, and asked Chen Ligang: "If those two sisters don't come back after leaving, will there be any danger? What if..."
"No need to worry about them." Chen Ligang downed a glass of beer, "The reason Zhang Mofeng left was mainly to protect her younger sister. Based on my understanding of her, she will definitely run back early in the morning to go to the Underground Military Camp with us."
Liu Yuchang stood up, holding a beer bottle, and said: "Regardless, we still have to go find those two sisters early; after all, there is strength in numbers when clearing a Dungeon." As he spoke, he filled everyone's glasses with beer.
After Li Yue and Huang Jing's glasses were full, they placed them on Xuebao's body, and before long, a thin layer of frost climbed onto the bottom of their glasses.
Anyway, the four of them chatted about how to get the two sisters to return, not knowing how long they had been talking; Xuebao only knew that its little belly was filled to the brim.
Having nothing to do and unable to understand what these four people were talking about, it put down the glasses Huang Jing and Li Yue had placed on it, wanting to find Zhu Zhiquan or Gelina to play with it.
At this moment, Li Yue pulled it back, then whispered softly: "Xuebao, wait for sister for a moment, sister will play with you, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Xuebao immediately perked up, sat back in its original spot, and began to play with her; Huang Jing and Li Yue also took the opportunity to place their glasses on it.
Xuebao played with Li Yue like this until sleepiness took over and it fell asleep without realizing it; when it woke up, it was already in the carriage.
It poked its head out of the window and discovered that the tricycle covered in flowers had returned, with Gelina responsible for driving, and Zhu Zhiquan sitting on the roof of the vehicle, meditating.
"Baobao is awake, come eat some breakfast." Zhao Yuxin knew it was awake and handed a bowl of Eight-Treasure Porridge to it, a hint of a smile on her lips.
When Xuebao took the Eight-Treasure Porridge, Zhao Yuxin gently patted its head, then took out a small notebook to record the little fruits on top of its head.
Suddenly, the tricycle stopped, not because they encountered any danger, but because they had reached their destination; everyone got off the vehicle one after another to observe this lake.
One could see that around this lake, apart from many Blood Grievance Mushroom Demons in a state of sleep, the cluttered equipment and the remaining shell craters all spoke of the cruelty of those years.
Gelina flew high into the sky to observe the surroundings, pointed ahead and said: "Opposite there is... an en... entrance."
"Mm! Gelina is so great, your speech is much more fluent than usual! Right, Ajiu?" Zhao Yuxin clapped her hands and asked.
Zhu Zhiquan only nodded slightly, a hint of a smile at the corners of his mouth.
To the side, when Zhang Mofeng looked at Zhao Yuxin, she inadvertently revealed an expression of disdain and couldn't help but speak out: "Clearly these species were all created by you, why not give them a more aggressive personality and strength, instead of coaxing them like coaxing children!"
"Sister!" Zhang Moxin grabbed Zhang Mofeng's arm, looking at Zhu Zhiquan and Zhao Yuxin with some worry. The others also looked over, preparing to pull them apart at any moment.
Seeing that someone seemed to be speaking ill of her, Gelina felt a bit embarrassed and stayed in the air, not daring to come down, until Zhao Yuxin encouraged her; only then did she land on her palm, and was then slowly tucked into her embrace.
Zhu Zhiquan took both of them into his arms without paying any attention to Zhang Mofeng. Seeing this scene, Xuebao also couldn't help but run over to embrace them, and Zhao Yuxin very naturally held it in her arms; at this moment, everyone felt very peaceful.
Being held, Gelina and Xuebao both felt a warm current flowing through their bodies, and Xuebao even hummed and hawed in Zhao Yuxin's arms.
A moment later, Zhao Yuxin said in an extremely tiny voice in their ears: "Alright, go play now."
"Mm!"
"Mm~"
Gelina landed on Xuebao's fruit, and Xuebao also happily walked toward the carriage.
Watching them return to the carriage, Zhao Yuxin said to the others: "Alright everyone, let's go to that military camp entrance together."
The others had no objections and drove together to the side of an underground gate.
One could see that this underground gate was already tattered, nearly half of it had been cut off, and the remaining part was swaying in the wind, appearing as if it would fall off at any moment.
Zhang Mofeng said coldly: "Hey, let's get this straight, if something like yesterday happens again, my sister and I will definitely exit the Dungeon early!"
Zhao Yuxin leaned on the car window and smiled: "Sister, don't you worry, this time I will definitely discipline my little ones well and will never let them do dangerous things again."
Zhang Mofeng: "Hmph! I hope you can keep your word."
Zhao Yuxin: "You can rest assured about that, I guarantee I will stick to the promise I made to you this morning."
Zhang Mofeng: "Hmph!"
Boom!
A sudden cannon blast completely blew down the gate that was about to fall, and then Chen Ligang's voice entered everyone's ears: "What are you wasting your breath for here? Blow this gate down and go in after a while."
The huge sound caused a portion of the Blood Grievance Mushroom Demons to wake up, and they angrily launched a charge toward their position, but before they had run two steps, they were quickly killed by multiple Flying Swords.
Seeing that Chen Ligang was also this reckless, Zhang Mofeng shook her head and sighed: "Why do I feel like you all treat the words you used to persuade me to rejoin the team as fart?"
Zhao Yuxin pricked up her ears to listen and discovered that the entire underground corridor was terrifyingly quiet, so she said to Zhu Zhiquan: "Ajiu, let's lead the way."
Zhu Zhiquan stepped on the gas without a word and drove into the underground corridor first, followed by Li Yue behind them; Huang Jing said to the four people behind her from inside the carriage: "You guys hurry up and follow, otherwise all the good stuff will be taken by us!"
Chen Ligang crossed his arms and said: "Makes sense, son, let's go!"
"Hey~ son actually dares to order his old man around; you just wait for me, when I can beat you, I will definitely make you call me Dad." Liu Yuchang curled his lips and drove to follow.
Finally, the two sisters' vehicle also entered; after they all entered the underground corridor, the system notification sound rang out: "Congratulations on entering the Underground Military Camp; next will be your final mission—finding the left-behind treasure."
