"In the inner circle, northern district?"
Lu Yuan confirmed.
"Yes, I heard it's near an Ant Nest, but I'm not exactly sure where. I overheard it while I was setting up my stall," Li Luo said.
Lu Yuan nodded.
"I understand, thank you for telling me this."
"Hahaha, Mr. Lu, you're too kind. You're my big customer now... If you get any treasures from the ruins, it would be great if you could sell them to me."
Lu Yuan smiled, "If I get anything, I'll consider it. I'll go take a look first."
Lu Yuan said goodbye to Li Luo and was about to leave when he heard someone calling him from behind.
"Lu Yuan, Boss! Yuan Ge!!"
Lu Yuan turned his head in confusion and saw Zhuo Ming running towards him.
Behind Zhuo Ming were the guardian warrior Lu Yuan had met last time and a few teammates.
However, compared to last time, there were two more people in their team this time.
"Yuan Ge, you're here too? What a coincidence!" Zhuo Ming said with a smile.
"It is quite a coincidence. Did you just come in?"
"We've been in for two days. We just came out for supplies and are about to go back in."
"Black Knight Lu Yuan, we meet again."
The guardian warrior also walked over with his teammates and extended his hand to Lu Yuan.
"I didn't have a chance to properly introduce myself last time. I'm Green, and as you can see, I'm a guardian warrior."
Lu Yuan reached out and shook Green's hand, "I'm Lu Yuan."
"Hahaha, your reputation precedes you. I've been hearing rumors about you in the market these past few days."
Green laughed, looking at Lu Yuan with admiration in his eyes.
"I thought your strength was extraordinary when we met last time. I didn't expect you to make a name for yourself so quickly. I've been in the Sandstone Dungeon for several years, and I haven't made a name for myself yet."
Green's teammates were also curiously looking at Lu Yuan.
Recently, one of the main topics in the market has been this Black Knight.
After all, it's rare to see a Gene Warrior who can kill hundreds of ferocious beasts every day.
They didn't expect to meet him here.
Zhuo Ming heard Green's words and remembered something, looking at Lu Yuan and saying:
"Yuan Ge! You're too strong, aren't you? I heard people in the market say that you can bring back hundreds of materials every day? Doesn't that mean you have to kill hundreds of ferocious beasts every day? That's too exaggerated, isn't it? Xiangxiang Jie said you were a genius before, she definitely didn't expect you to get so strong so quickly."
Lu Yuan smiled: "This is just taking advantage of the guardian class. After all, my defense is strong, so it's not easy to encounter danger."
Green on the side gave a wry smile: "I'm also a guardian class, how come I feel like we're not the same class of warrior?"
The teammates next to him all laughed.
"Captain, if you can be like the Black Knight, then you'll have your own title."
"Captain, you still have to work hard! Strive for a White Knight, or a Gray Knight title or something."
The relationship between these Gene Warrior team members was obviously good, and several teammates were laughing and teasing Green.
"By the way, Lu Yuan, I have some news here, do you want to hear it?"
Green looked at Lu Yuan, revealing a hint of seriousness.
Lu Yuan raised his eyebrows when he saw this: "What news?"
"A small ruin has been discovered in our area. Now many people are planning to go and take a look. We are also planning to go, do you want to go?"
"You said ruins? I just received the news and was planning to go and take a look."
Green smiled: "That's great, why not go together?"
Zhuo Ming looked at Lu Yuan and also said:
"Yeah, Yuan Ge, why don't we go together? There's someone to take care of each other with more people."
Lu Yuan thought for a moment, then nodded: "Alright."
The number of fierce beasts in the inner circle of the dungeon is more than that of the outer circle, and their strength is also stronger.
Even Lu Yuan needs to be careful to deal with them.
If there are people together, he can reduce some pressure.
Compared to strangers, Zhuo Ming and Green have had a cooperation after all.
Green's strength is still good.
Green smiled: "With the Black Knight here, the road will be much smoother."
"Then let's go."
The group entered the dungeon again, heading towards the inner circle where it was discovered.
Not long after Lu Yuan and his party entered the dungeon, a group of people approached outside the market.
The leader was a female Kobold with smooth white fur and wearing black leather armor.
It was Bertha Vermi who had escaped last time.
Behind her were more than a dozen Kobold Gene Warriors.
At this moment, Bertha Vermi's face was not good, and she said coldly:
"A bunch of trash! I told you to find that human, and you've been looking for so long without any news!"
Beside Bertha Vermi was a black-furred Kobold.
He wore a wry smile and said, "Third Miss, the Graystone Forest is too large, and the terrain is complex. It's too difficult to find a single human. We've already tried our best."
"Don't make excuses for your incompetence!"
Bertha Vermi scolded.
The black-furred Kobold's face stiffened, revealing a helpless expression:
"Yes, Third Miss, it is my subordinate's poor performance."
"Hmph, but this time we've discovered a ruin. If you can gain something from it, the matter of the human can be dropped."
The black-furred Kobold smiled:
"Third Miss, rest assured, not only have the experts from our consortium been mobilized, but I've also invited 'Blood Blade' Sally and 'Madman' Li Xiao. Even if other forces receive the news and rush over, they probably won't be as well-prepared as we are. This time, we will definitely gain a lot."
Bertha Vermi smiled slightly: "I hope you won't disappoint me this time."
Hmph! If I can get good gains in the ruins this time, then I can get more say in my father's side, and I won't be laughed at by my eldest brother and second sister.
"Please rest assured, Third Miss! This time, we will definitely not let you down."
As they spoke, the group entered the dungeon.
Deep within the dungeon.
Lu Yuan and his group advanced through the passage. Green, holding a giant shield, walked at the front, followed by Zhuo Ming and the others, with Lu Yuan at the rear.
Just then, Green, who was at the front, suddenly stopped, his expression changing.
"Hmm?"
He looked down at his feet and found that they were entangled in white spider silk.
"Something's up!"
As soon as he spoke, two giant spiders, each about 1.8 meters tall and completely black, pounced down from the top of the passage in front of Green.
Their sharp claws stabbed down towards Green's head.
Green quickly raised his shield to block.
Dong!
The spider's claws landed on the shield, and the enormous force caused Green to take two steps back.
The others also reacted.
"Captain!"
Zhuo Ming and the others, holding greatswords or long sabers, looked at the huge Dungeon Spiders.
"Watch the ground, burn the spider silk first!"
Green said.
The others snapped back to reality and looked at the ground not far away.
They noticed that there were many white spider silks wrapped around the ground and both sides of the passage.
A handsome, blond youth, whom Lu Yuan hadn't seen last time, conjured a Fireball in his hand.
He shot the Fireball at the spider silk.
Instantly, the spider silk burst into flames.
Seeing the spider silk burning, two huge Dungeon Spiders shrieked and rushed towards the blond youth in anger.
"Don't even think about it!"
Green moved his body horizontally, raised his giant shield, and tried to block the two Dungeon Spiders.
However, one Dungeon Spider was blocked, but the other Dungeon Spider broke through Green's defense and pounced on the blond youth.
Seeing the huge spider pouncing, the others' expressions changed drastically.
Especially the blond youth.
The Dungeon Spider's speed was too fast. He had engraved an elemental Extraordinary Gene, and there was no special increase in speed at all, so there was no way to avoid it.
The strength of the others was not strong either. Facing the violent Dungeon Spider, they could only stare wide-eyed, watching the Dungeon Spider rush towards the blond youth.
Just then, Lu Yuan appeared in front of the blond youth.
He circulated the Black Iron Body, holding a huge heavy sword in his hand, and slashed at the huge spider with a gust of wind.
Clang!!
The Dungeon Spider's claws collided with the heavy sword, making a sound of metal clashing.
Then, the Dungeon Spider screamed, and its huge body retreated a few steps.
Subtle cracks appeared on the claws that collided with the Beetle Claw heavy sword.
Lu Yuan was expressionless, took a step forward, clenched the heavy sword with both hands, and his offensive was like a tide, continuous, surging, and slashing one after another.
For a time, the Dungeon Spider screamed repeatedly, constantly retreating.
The others looked at Lu Yuan, who was suppressing the Dungeon Spider, with wide eyes.
"So, so strong!"
"Is this the strength of the Black Knight?"
"This Dungeon Spider is so big, I'm afraid its tempering degree has reached more than 70%. I didn't expect that it would be suppressed by the Black Knight in a head-on collision?!"
While everyone was surprised, Green, who was blocking another Dungeon Spider, shouted.
"What are you doing?! Why don't you come and help?"
The others came back to their senses when they heard the words and looked in Green's direction.
Also a guardian-type warrior, Green at the moment could only hold up his giant shield to block the Dungeon Spider's attack.
This comparison made them feel a little embarrassed.
Their own captain looks so weak.
"Here comes the captain!"
"Hurry and help the captain!"
