On the way back to the surface with Xia Ran and the Loki clan, a small incident occurred.

When returning to the 17th floor, there were some minor accidents. When arriving at the 17th floor, several minotaurs gathered at the entrance of the passage.

They were over two meters tall, with strong muscles, and their red eyes stared at Xia Ran and his group who had just arrived. Their eyes were full of crazy killing intent and brutality.

This was a common monster on the 17th floor – the Minotaur.

Its rough skin and strong strength also had a great reputation among adventurers.

Even a senior adventurer in a 1v.2 situation might fall into their hands if he was not careful. They were considered elite monsters in the middle layer.

However, facing this group of monsters,

Xia Ran naturally did not take action, and the senior adventurers of the Loki clan did the same.

Although the Minotaur was considered strong in the middle layer, the gap between it and the first-level adventurers was like a natural moat.

Generally speaking, for the clans that can expedition to the deep layers, the monsters in the middle and lower layers are left for the grassroots members of the clan to accumulate experience points.

The same is true for Loki’s family.

Finn handed the command here to Raul, whom he had been training.

Let him arrange the grassroots members of the family to fight against the enemy.

Raul, who was originally seriously injured, has recovered after treatment.

As a second-level adventurer of 1v.4, he is naturally familiar with the behavior of these Minotaur. He is commanding the grassroots members of Loki’s family in an orderly manner.

However, the underground maze is always full of surprises…

For some reason, the stone walls around the 17th floor cracked at the same time.

The frequency of monster births suddenly increased.

There were only a few Minotaur at first, but it increased to dozens in just a few minutes.

Seeing this, Xia Ran was a little curious. Could it be that the changes in the deep layer affected the middle layer?

“There are too many. Aisi, Tione, you guys also take action.”

Seeing the sudden surge of monsters, Finn decisively issued an order.

This level of number has exceeded the limit that the members of the family can bear. The grassroots members who were originally in the upper hand in the battle to encircle the Minotaur.

Faced with the sudden increase in the number of monsters, they gradually became unable to resist their attacks.

But with the intervention of the first-level adventurers of the Loki family, the balance soon tilted again.

The fastest one was Aisi.

She was wrapped in a gust of wind and moved around the battlefield. She ruthlessly harvested the lives of the Minotaur.

The second was the silver-haired werewolf. He was an agile adventurer.

Relying on the silver boots on his feet, he used various leg skills to kick the monster to pieces.

He did not hide his fangs and madly bit the prey he had identified.

Perhaps he was frightened by the exaggerated harvesting speed of Ai Si and the others.

One of the Minotaur actually turned around and ran away, which was completely beyond their expectations.

Then the panic spread like a virus, and dozens of Minotaur followed and fled.

Seeing this scene, Xia Ran became interested in the first Minotaur.

A monster that originally only had the instinct to kill actually knew fear?……

“Hurry up and chase them.”

Livilia, who was the first to react, suppressed her hesitation and quickly reminded everyone.

But it was already a little late.

“Wait, that’s it.——”

Diona screamed and looked at the entrance of the passage connecting to the 16th floor.

The group of Minotaur was heading towards that passage.

In the underground maze, monsters in the middle layer usually do not appear in the upper layer.

Otherwise, with the strength of those lower-level adventurers, they would face the slaughter of monsters in the middle layer.

Now, because of the actions of the Loki family, some monsters actually began to escape to the upper layer.

Although the monsters have no intelligence and do not know the specific route of the maze.

But facing a large number of Minotaur, even if only one escapes to the upper layer.

It will become a nightmare for all the 1v.1 adventurers on the upper layer.

This is also a major dereliction of duty by the Loki family. The guild will certainly punish it after knowing it.

The important thing is that the reputation accumulated by the Loki family for a long time will definitely suffer a blow.

Soon, Finn made a decision.

He, Ess and the wolfman Bert, the fast adventurers, will chase the fastest Minotaur first.

The rest will be left to the other members to clean up behind.

Xia Ran also followed, and he naturally would not let those monsters run out of the underground maze.

The most important point is that he was somewhat interested in the Minotaur that escaped first.

But he did not stop it directly before.

Otherwise, how could such a monster have the qualifications to escape in front of him.

Xia Ran planned to do an experiment…

He wanted to know whether the Minotaur really had its own will.

Or was it just because the sudden fear overcame the instinct given by the maze?

This involved his judgment of the underground maze.

As for whether this decision would affect the lives of other adventurers, he could only say – it has nothing to do with me.

…………

As the floors went up, when they reached the 6th floor, only Ai Si and Xia Ran were left chasing them.

“Lost……”

There was no expression on Ais’s face, but there was a hint of anxiety in her tone.

As soon as she reached the 6th floor, she lost the trace of the last Minotaur.

“Over here, Aisi.”

Xia Ran certainly didn’t lose him, he even deliberately slowed down his speed.

Fei Wei Si certainly knew this, but she didn’t ask much.

For the elf girl, there was no need to know the rest.

Just follow him closely, no need to say more. (To read the exciting novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

The Minotaur that ran to the 6th floor was the one that started to escape from the 17th floor.

Xia Ran was a little curious, was this Minotaur too lucky?

Or had it already developed wisdom, and could miraculously run back to the 6th floor from the 17th floor?

“Roar——”

But it seems to be the former. Xia Ran sighed.[]

It was a waste of time.

He thought he had encountered a Minotaur that had just gained wisdom.

He also wanted to use this opportunity to understand the underground maze and verify his guess…

Let it end like this.

In an instant, Xia Ran arrived at the location of the Minotaur.

The monster was facing a white-haired adventurer.

The adventurer was wearing simple protective gear distributed by the guild.

Under the oppression of the Minotaur, he fled in panic, completely losing his composure.

There were even tears flashing in his red eyes.

Like a weak white rabbit, he was simply a novice among novices.

“————”

With a flash of sword light, the Minotaur in front of the white-haired adventurer turned into pieces in the blink of an eye.

The boy who was originally dodging in panic suddenly froze, as if a pause switch had been pressed.

A black-haired boy and girl appeared in front of him.

Their appearance was not inferior to the gods he had seen, and even better.

“…………”

Xia Ran looked at the stunned white rabbit boy and was speechless…..

Even for a novice, he is too unvigilant. He won’t survive long in the underground maze like this.

But it has nothing to do with me.

Without thinking too much, Xia Ran took Fierweiss’s hand and turned to leave.

On the way, he met Ai Si who was a little late, and nodded to her to indicate that it was over.

Then he and Ai Si returned to the middle level and checked if there were any missed Minotaur.

After meeting up with the team of Loki’s family, they confirmed that all the Minotaur had been dealt with.

Although this accident caused panic among many adventurers on the upper and middle levels.

But in the end no one was injured, and there were no serious consequences.

“Thank you for your help, Xia Ran”

“”During this expedition, our Loki clan received a lot of help from you.”

Finn thanked him formally.

Although most of it was out of his own interest, Xia Ran did help them many times.

As the leader of the clan, he naturally had to express his attitude.

Moreover, Xia Ran also specially agreed to his previous private request to take care of Ai Si.

All of this deserves the heartfelt gratitude of the leader of the little people.

“I’ll talk to Loki about this when we get back to the base.”

“Although Loki and your main god Hestia don’t have a good relationship”

“But I believe we can cooperate in the future, and I personally owe you a favor.”

The hero seems to have undergone some changes.

Now he is absolutely rational, and occasionally he does not suppress his emotions.

From the perspective of the relationship between the main gods of the clan, the Loki clan should not get too close to the Hestia clan.

But from his personal and clan members’ views on Xia Ran.

They all think that the hero is definitely a person worth getting to know and cooperating with.

“Well, it’s up to you, Finn.”

“Anyway, you are always so serious, we can have fun together when we have the chance.”

Xia Ran, who knew Finn’s character, nodded casually. He didn’t like formal occasions.

He would only live according to his own heart.

As for the cooperation with the Loki clan, it would be okay if there was something that interested him.

The personalities of the members of the Loki clan, except for the werewolf, were unexpectedly good.

If they happened to have the same purpose later, he would not mind cooperating with them.

Xia Ran suddenly remembered the monster he killed on the 50th floor in 5.3, and told Finn casually.

“There is one thing worth noting about the monsters on the 50th floor.”

“In addition to being sensitive to magic, their magic stones are also different in color.”

“The center of their magic stones is rich in color, and the rest of the parts have a few blue-purple colors, which is not normal.”

Xia Ran noticed this before he chopped up the worms.

Whether it is the monsters in the upper layer or the deep layer, their magic stones are basically blue-purple.

There are only slight differences in the depth of the color, but there is absolutely no color.

He didn’t know whether this was the peculiarity of the new monsters in the underground maze, or some man-made factors.

After all, the Zagnath that was killed casually before didn’t even have a magic stone.

It can be seen that anything can happen in the underground maze.

Xia Ran told Finn this information because he wanted him to ask Loki, the main god of the clan.

These gods who have lived for hundreds of millions of years may know some special news.

As for the goddess girl of his own family.

What information channels do you expect a home god to have?……

“——Rich colored magic stone?”

“I understand. I’ll ask Loki when I get back.”

Finn felt a slight tingling sensation on the thumb of his right hand, and had a vague premonition in his heart.
