Although Elise was very reluctant after hearing the explanation.
But with things having come to this, there was no other way. She could only nod and agree to let Finley accompany them.
At that moment, the pointed-ear female demon looked at Xu Jingming curiously:
"Who is this?"
"Blood Abyss."
Elise introduced him with a smile. "I invited him to explore the high-level demon nest with us."
"So you're Blood Abyss?"
The pointed-ear female demon's eyes lit up, and a frank smile appeared on her face:
"I'm Carlos.
Two days ago, I saw you push both Elise and me down the rankings.
Now that I've met you in person, you really do have an extraordinary presence."
"Hello." Xu Jingming nodded with a smile.
"Hmph."
Finley, standing to the side, snorted unhappily and shot Xu Jingming a sidelong glance:
"Isn't this the guy who extorted Demon Stones from you two days ago?
Elise, why did you invite this sort of trash too?"
A surge of jealousy rose in his heart.
Two days ago, he had received word that Elise had specifically gone to wait for Blood Abyss in front of the resource building.
At the time, he had dismissed it with disdain. With Elise's cold and prideful temperament.
How could she possibly go out of her way to wait for a male demon?
But seeing the situation before him, that rumor was probably true!
"Blood Abyss is very strong. He'll be a great help in our joint exploration of the high-level demon nest."
Elise glanced at Finley and spoke calmly.
Rex, who had remained silent beside them, slowly nodded as well, showing his approval.
"If even you, Elise, acknowledge his strength, then I really ought to look forward to it."
Carlos smiled and smoothed things over, his gaze lingering on Xu Jingming
