After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply Chapter 284 252. Tasya's Lap Pillow, Lin Da Comes to the For

World Tree Fifth Layer.

"Captain, for you!"

Monica, with a sprightly charm, held out a flower crown that she had woven and approached Lin Da.

"Thank you, it's a beautiful flower crown."

Lin Da squatted down to let Monica place it on his head.

Smiles blossod on both of their faces.

After exiting the cave, they didn't rush to return but took a detour through the Green Plains in search of the Fruit of the World Tree.

But the outco was as one would expect.

The Mystic Realm of the fifth layer had too many adventurers and sparse magic power, making it the most difficult place for a Bronze Fruit Tree to spawn.

Where there's a Bronze Fruit Tree, there lies the Fruit of the World Tree.

The higher the layer of the Mystic Realm, the richer the resources. By the 20th layer, Bronze Fruit Trees had beco quite common.

The Mystic Realm of the fifth layer was indeed a blessed place for adventurers around level 10.

But for Lin Da and his companions, who were at least level 25, the resources here were sowhat insufficient.

Lin Da didn't find any Fruit of the World Tree, but he wasn't disappointed, it was to be expected. He thought that after returning, he could buy so with Gold Coins, since the Mystic Realm of the fifth layer had just opened and the Fruit of the World Tree would experience a small surge in production, making the prices relatively cheaper.

Normally 1,000 Gold Coins each, now he could buy them for a little over 900.

First, he'd get 100 of them to test the effects.

Luckily, Lin Da had more than enough cash on hand.

The original 500,000 Gold, plus the 1,000,000 paid by President Velen, and the 150,000 burst from the Goblin Prince...

Minus the 600,000 paid as compensation to Lia and Isa.

The remaining amount was 1,050,000 Gold Coins.

Buying 100 Fruits of the World Tree was a re trifle.

Lin Da looked around at everyone, "There's nothing more to see on the fifth layer, let's go back."

Isa nodded, "We need to prepare a strategy against the specter."

"The specter won't be bouncing back anyti soon."

Lin Da chuckled and said, "From the suggestions I've seen, Hulus has been taken away for investigation and won't be out for a while. At this critical mont, even if the mbers of Dark Shadow are dissatisfied, they wouldn't dare to act against us."

"What we need to do is to beco a Steel Level Adventure Group as quickly as possible."

Lin Da turned to Isa and Lia, "Let's all do our best."

Everyone took out their Teleportation Stones.

"Return."

They held hands and silently uttered the word in their hearts.

A blue light enveloped them all.

When they reappeared, they were back at the entrance to the World Tree in White Dove City.

"Huh, why are there so few people in the square?"

"Yeah, is there so event today?"

"Where are the reporters from the press? Where are Snow Goose's fans? Why aren't they here to welco us?"

Lin Da, Isa, and Lia were all sowhat puzzled.

The crowd that they had imagined welcoming them was nonexistent.

The vast square was cool and clear.

Only a girl with black dress and dark green hair stood in the distance.

The girl's hair was a ss, resembling seaweed, her eyes hidden behind it, making her expression indiscernible.

But Lin Da and the others had a strong premonition that this girl was here for them.

She held a massive pair of scissors, muttering sothing to herself.

She didn't seem to be a fan of theirs.

Isa said with uncertainty, "Who is this person, Lin Da? Soone you know?"

"I don't know her."

Lin Da shook his head.

The girl before them differed too much from the character portraits in the ga.

Combined with her ssy, dark green hair, Lin Da failed to recognize her at first.

He led his teammates forward.

As they got closer, the girl's mutterings beca clear.

She spoke of 'cutting off'.

The sight of those large, dark scissors inexplicably sent a chill down Lin Da's spine.

The girl lifted her head, her green eyes solemnly fixated on Lin Da.

When their gazes t, both were struck!

Lin Da had an excellent mory.

He recognized who the girl was.

And he understood why she was here, blocking his path with large scissors.

No wonder the sight of her was familiar at first glance.

It was late at night, just after midnight, when the ga's daily free draw refreshed.

Lin Da was there on ti to draw a card.

A flash of purple light.

Lin Da drew a Four-star Dark Series character: [Black Scissors] Mingli!

In the ga, Mingli was a very special four-star team mber.

Her strength was questionable.

Her lower limit was abysmally low, worse than a three-star.

Yet her upper limit was terrifyingly high, stronger than an ordinary five-star when bolstered by powerful gear.

Mingli's feature was her extrely fast attack speed and growth in attack power that couldn't match a mage's.

With powerful equipnt, her Normal Attack damage was explosive.

Discover hidden tales at empire

Without it, it was as ineffective as giving a massage to magical creatures.

A toy for the elite to show off damage, an on of bad luck to the commoners who drew her.

Mingli's three acts were:

[The Ugly Duckling Plucked Bare]

[You Are the Child I Favor]

[The Dazzling Black Rose at the Center of the Ball]

In the final act, Mingli hoped to enter into an Oath with the player.

Lin Da chose to agree, but said it would have to wait until after reaching the top of the World Tree.

Unexpectedly, the day after that plot line, he drew a five-star Dark Series character, replacing Mingli's spot.

To the real-world Mingli, it probably felt like the Captain promised to marry her yesterday, only to tell her to pack her bags and leave the next day.

Now, Lin Da understood where that chill ca from.

"So you do know each other?"

Seeing his strange expression, Isa asked curiously.

"Why is that Seaweed Head looking at you so weird?" Lia frowned.

Lulu, however, recognized Mingli.

She had a brief encounter with her in the Primitive Adventure Team.

Mingli had been kicked out even earlier than her.

The two looked at each other.

Mingli's pupils shook.

"So, so many?"

A bunch of stunning young ladies, any of which would attract attention in any city, were surrounding Lin Da.

Lulu, and a silver-haired Swordsman, their looks towards Lin Da were affectionate, not like re friends.

Although Mingli hadn't seen the face under Lin Da's mask, the soul aura of the man before her was exactly the sa as that of the Dark Shadow.
