Banner of the Evil God

In the dark maze of the dungeon, a group of fat "adventurers" were running wildly and panting, being chased by a group of monsters that showed their teeth and claws, but their actual combat power was inferior to that of local dogs.

Suddenly, the leader vaguely noticed that there seemed to be a little pink light in front of him.

The light was not strong, but it made him suddenly feel at ease, vaguely feeling that the place where the light was must be safe. So he immediately shouted, cheered up, and ran towards that side.

At this moment, everyone could no longer tell the difference between east, west and north. They were like a group of silly goats, running behind the "leader".

I don’t know how long I ran, but when I turned a corner, my eyes suddenly lit up, and I saw a bonfire burning in an open space not far away. There were two small tents next to the bonfire, and a strong man was cooking. A pot of soup with a fragrant aroma.

"Safe Zone!"

"It's a safe zone!"

"Help!"

"Oh God... I finally escaped!"

They stumbled over and rushed to the bonfire in one breath. Only then did they feel that their hearts were finally at ease.

My heart felt at ease, and fatigue immediately came over me. Most people didn't even bother to eat, they just rushed into the tent, wrapped themselves in blankets, and fell asleep.

The fat man at the head finally had a stronger will and resisted the urge to bury himself in a deep sleep and have a good rest, and tried to talk to the big man who was making soup.

"Is this brother... the administrator of the maze?"

The big man raised his head, looked at him doubtfully, and shook his head.

"Then what do you do?"

"Lifeguards," the big man said, "drag out those tourists who are lost and have no strength, who have exhausted their last bit of strength and can only lie on the ground shouting 'I'm going to die', and throw them into the tent. That’s my job.”

The fat man thought of how ugly he and others had been, and couldn't help but laugh twice, and continued to ask: "So, brother, are you an adventurer?"

"Yes, but I retired." The big man looked a little melancholy, "During an adventure, I was hit by an arrow in the knee."

"An arrow in the knee? Isn't that lame?"

"Yes, I was lame for a while," the big man said. "It wasn't until I believed in His Majesty the Mask of the Void that Master Steel helped me heal my knee, and I swore allegiance to you..."

"Then what? Why did you come to be a lifeguard again?" the fat man asked curiously.

"My lord said that she likes to be alone and doesn't need to be a burden." The big man sighed, "I have pity on me, a seven-foot tall man. He is proud of himself and is proficient in bow and horse, spear and stick. He is also good at swordsmanship, and he can also play with slings. So, in the end, it’s just a burden!”

The fat man's eyes widened when he heard this. He couldn't believe that this big man who worked as a lifeguard in the dungeon maze was actually a master of eighteen kinds of martial arts. He couldn't help but ask: "You are so powerful, how did you get to work as a lifeguard?" ?”

The big man shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Am I great? How great am I? Look at this amusement park. Even the legendary strong men can only look at the gate. What can I, a mid-level adventurer, do?"

The fat man was stunned for a moment and asked: "Isn't that giant at the gate of the amusement park a magic-driven golem?"

"Of course not. Have you ever seen such a flexible golem?"

The fat man chuckled twice, turned his head and wiped away the cold sweat.

Not long ago, when the whole family came to travel, his son even smeared his nose on the "golem"... It's a good thing that the giant had a good temper, otherwise the whole family would have turned into a big meat pie with one slap.

So he secretly made up his mind that when the trip was over, he would buy some wine and give it to the giant as an apology.

As a businessman who has been around for many years, he still understands the principles of life.

He originally wanted to chat a few more words, but the big man served him a bowl of soup. The stewed chicken and vegetables were mixed together just right. The flattened oatmeal was sifted out with a special technique and all the bran was removed. Drink it. The fragrance and warmth immediately made him feel tired. He apologized to the big man on the lifeguard, got into the tent, wrapped himself in a blanket and lay down, and fell asleep soon after.

"This guy is really busy!" When they all fell asleep, the big man shook his head, and his body flashed with light and turned into a pink piggy with wings.

In this underground maze, there is no light all day long, where are the lifeguards?

If she hadn't turned into a pig and wasn't fit to wander around, she wouldn't have stayed here.

Covering the pot and placing it near the campfire to ensure that it would neither burn dry nor cool down quickly, she added a piece of magically treated firewood to the campfire and flew away with flapping wings.

There is currently another group of tourists starting their adventure and they need a little more supervision.

At the entrance to the dungeon, the young businessman Cliff stared at the smiling half-orc with some fear. Although the half-orc looked friendly, his instinct told him that the half-orc was very dangerous.

"Are you four adventurers?" The Leopard Ranger, who used to hunt World of Warcraft as a profession, but now has changed his job as a dungeon registrar, looked at the four people in front of him with some doubts, "To be honest, your manpower is a bit... Less."

"Aren't all adventurers usually in pairs of four or five?" Cliff's friend Legoton asked with some confusion.

"Those are the real adventurers. Even if they are the weakest, they can at least run continuously for more than two hours wearing a suit of armor, and can skillfully use at least three weapons... You can't compare with them."

"But we don't need to deal with those really dangerous monsters, right?" Waits, another friend of Cliff's, said, "I've seen the flyer for this maze. Didn't it say 'safety can be ensured'?"

"That's true, but if your adventure team is too weak, the adventure won't be able to last for long." The gatekeeper explained, "Once you encounter real danger, the adventure will be forcibly ended - that way If so, it’s like wasting a lot of money!”

Speaking of money, the young people all laughed, and Legodon patted the taciturn companion vigorously on the shoulder.

"It's rare that Johns, who has always been stingy, is willing to pay for us to experience the feeling of adventure. Even if we are knocked unconscious by the dragon as soon as we enter the door, it is not a waste!"

Seeing that they were determined, the gatekeeper stopped trying to persuade them and took out a thick book and asked them to register in it.

"Write the name of your team at the top of the page... What? You haven't thought of a name yet? How about using a name given by God? There are extra benefits! ...Okay, just use a name given by God, let me do it Recite the spell... Hmm... The name 'Kill Bai Jiajie immediately upon seeing him' is really strange, but the overall search range is increased by one, which is very useful... Okay, then we have decided on this name, and then we will call the four of you. Write your name, you don’t have to write it in your own hand, it doesn’t matter if you are illiterate, I can fill it in for you...The last thing is the date, it’s done.”

He closed the book, smiled and bowed to the four of them.

"Registration is complete, please feel free to enjoy this wonderful adventure!"

Before they finished speaking, the ground beneath the four people's feet suddenly cracked open, and a large hole appeared. The four young people screamed and fell straight into it.

There were four muffled sounds in succession, and they fell onto the thick haystack, making them dizzy.

"Is this absolutely safe?" Cliff grinned and climbed up. He looked at the dim buildings around him with a wry smile and then looked at the vast "starry sky" above his head. He couldn't help but praise, "It's really amazing!"

Just for a moment, everyone calmed down and climbed up one by one - only then did they realize that their casual clothes had been replaced by adventurers' clothes, a full set of leather armor, and each of them was equipped with arms.

"Huh?! This sword looks good!" Legodon, who was in the weapons business, pulled out his sword and flicked it with his fingers, making a crisp sound. "The steel is pretty good."

"According to the flyer, after the adventure is over, the equipment we found can be taken away." Cliff said, "Before, I thought that even if we could take the equipment away, it would probably be a pile of junk... Now It seems that he is actually very sincere!”

"Yes, considering the value of these equipment, the admission fee is not unacceptable."

While they were chatting, Johns pulled out the long gun inserted in the leather sheath on his back and made a defensive gesture towards somewhere in the darkness.

His actions reminded everyone, and everyone took out their weapons and got ready to fight.

Then, there was a shadow shaking in the darkness, and several huge mushrooms that were almost as high as the chest of an ordinary person swayed out.

Although these amateur adventurers were in a mess and looked like a complete mob in the eyes of professional adventurers, facing those giant mushrooms with short legs and hands, it was not a problem.

After a lackluster battle, the giant mushrooms fell one after another and turned into a pile of lifeless wreckage.

"Hoo! Hoo!" Legodun, who had contributed the most in the battle just now, was breathing heavily. He had not yet completely recovered from the battle and was still in a very nervous state. "It's really... exciting!"

"Stop being 'exciting', it's time to go." Cliff, who had already memorized the leaflet and instructions, patted him on the shoulder, "We have to find a safe zone as soon as possible."

At this moment, Johns, who had been silent all this time, lowered his head, pulled out the short knife inserted in the jacket of his leather boots, and cut off a piece from the giant mushroom.

"What do you want this for?" Waits asked.

"This is edible," Johns said. "We need food."

Legodon was startled: "This is a monster! How can you eat it!"

"Earth dragon meat, monster, two hundred gold coins, one portion."

"That's not the same thing!"

"Think about it carefully, what Johns said makes sense..." Cliff couldn't help but nodded, and cut a piece with a short knife, put it next to his nose and smelled it carefully for a while, "It seems really edible."

"You are crazy! This is a monster!"

In the end, despite Legodon's strong objection, they still did not bring the giant mushroom remains that could be used as food.

"Kill Master Bai when you see him" The adventure team moved forward cautiously in the dark underground. They had no map and no idea where they were. As for star positioning, which is a very high-end skill even among adventurers, they obviously don't know it either.

So they can only walk around like headless flies. If you look down from the sky, you can see that they pass through buildings or ruins, unknowingly deviating from the original direction and starting to circle.

Maybe they could detect it if they just walked. But they actually didn't have this leisure - after walking for less than ten minutes, they encountered a second group of enemies.

They were a group of red-faced dwarfs who looked like they were not good people at all. Each of them was holding a rather suspicious bone club in his hand. When they saw them appear, they immediately laughed and screamed and rushed up.

"What should we do? Should we fight?" Legoton asked nervously, holding his sword tightly.

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

They made a decision quickly.

Seeing that the number of enemies was large and getting closer and closer, the most timid Weiss finally couldn't bear the fear in his heart, shouted "Run!" and turned around and ran.

This shout was like a signal gun, and the four companions turned around at the same time, threw their backs to the enemy, and ran away.

I can't think of what to write, and it's not exciting if I write it, it's so painful...
