Chapter 307: Chapter 307
"Let’s go find Nangong Yan and the others first." Qian Qi rubbed her chin, "The more people, the safer."
Gong Qiang quickly nodded.
Glancing at Su Ang, who was drunk and passed out on his back, Qian Qi sighed deeply. She bent down and rummaged through the black water, pulled out several soft, black little worms, and directly crushed them in her hand.
She raised her hand and smeared the black juice under Su Ang’s nose, getting angrier as she smeared and finally wiped all the juice on his face.
Su Ang’s stunningly beautiful face suddenly turned black like a little tabby cat.
Seeing Qian Qi’s furious expression, Gong Qiang didn’t dare provoke her and asked quietly, "Can this sober him up?"
"No, it can only prevent him from passing out completely because of intoxication." Qian Qi withdrew her hand and explained, "These poisonous demons usually either have detoxifying parts on their own or have nearby demons that can detoxify. However, it won’t completely neutralize the poison, only reduce its effects somewhat."
Gong Qiang had a look of understanding.
The viewers in the livestream room also expressed that they learned something and started to become curious about Qian Qi’s identity.
[--Suddenly realized Brother Dog seems very knowledgeable?]
[--Not only does he understand the anatomy of A-level magical beasts, but he can instantly recognize unknown A-level magic plants. Could he be a professor studying demons in the country?]
[--According to previous clues, he seems to have been hired by the heirs, but he has never revealed his name. Do we really have such a learned professor in our country?]
[--Professors are usually seventy or eighty years old, right? Brother Dog’s voice sounds quite young most of the time!]
[--I don’t know who’s impressive with magical beasts, but I do know someone who’s impressive with magic plants...]
[--Who is it? Could it be Li Hongsheng?]
[--Whoa, I also thought of someone, but she’s also impressive with magical beasts! She’s the god of our Beast Taming Department!]
[--??? She’s the god of our Magic Plant Department, when did she become your Beast Taming Department’s god???] Newest update provıded by 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝕟𝕖𝕥
People in the livestream chat asked, bewildering the students from the Beast Taming Department.
[--Huh? You didn’t know? She helped all of us contract D-level magical beasts! You guys even helped us grow evolution materials, right?]
[--What?! Those evolution materials were sold to you? I thought they were sold to an external herb dealer!!!]
[--She didn’t farm at home, but secretly went to help you contract magical beasts?!]
[--Our original partner worked hard growing magic plants, and she took them to support her side venture, boo hoo hoo!]
[--How dare you speak that way! We paid for them, okay! Why don’t you say the side venture paid to support you!]
[--Wait, what? She’s obviously a man, how could Brother Dog be a woman?]
Someone raised a doubt, but it was quickly overshadowed by the arguing students from Awakener University in the bullet comments, and within the A-level dungeon, Qian Qi successfully regrouped with the five people led by Nangong Yan based on the location.
Seeing Su Ang sleeping soundly on Gong Qiang’s back, Nangong Yan raised an eyebrow, smiling cynically, "What’s up with Su Ang? Is he unconscious because of snakes like you?"
Gong Qiang twitched the corner of his mouth, "He’s knocked out because he didn’t have a defense helmet and got drunk from the Emperor Lotus scent."
"Such mistakes shouldn’t happen..." Nangong Yan shook his head mournfully, "The main fighting force here is us three, and now one’s knocked out, and another is a snake-prone bomb waiting to go off..."
"Master, you’d better stay with me. I really can’t trust leaving you with those two." Nangong Yan earnestly looked at Qian Qi, "You’re the only one who can find the boss. If you die, our chances of survival will plummet."
Before entering the dungeon, he never thought that the most resilient and capable fighters would become burdens one after another.
Handing Qian Qi to them made him genuinely uneasy.
Qian Qi glanced at him indifferently, "What would you do if the Emperor Python hadn’t released gas?"
He was confident he could escape, but he could only save himself, unable to rescue anyone else. But could he say that in front of the camera?
So now, even if he became a minor burden like Su Ang or Gong Qiang, who fainted at the start, he couldn’t admit he could escape on his own.
"A bunch of dead weights." Qian Qi laughed coldly in mockery, "I might as well rely on myself instead of you all."
"Master’s right." Nangong Yan, with exceptional patience, agreed, "So, what’s our next plan?"
"The good news is that the boss is nearby. No need to go too far to find it." Qian Qi looked up at the flying drone, grinned, "The bad news is that there might be over twenty bosses."
[--What do you mean?]
[--Isn’t there only one boss in the dungeon? How can there be over twenty?]
[--Wait, what’s the measure word ’条’ for magical beasts?]
Qian Qi opened the light brain and controlled the flying drone to ascend rapidly. When the drone reached a certain height, she used it as her eyes to survey everything below.
The viewers in the livestream room, along with Qian Qi, looked at the screen and gasped collectively.
In the endless swamp of Emperor Lotus, large Poisonous Emperor Pythons coiled around everywhere, sprawling within the flower clusters of Emperor Lotuses in the black water pools, lazily stretching and twisting their serpentine bodies.
Among them was a particularly massive Poisonous Emperor Python, whose neighboring Emperor Lotus grew significantly larger, much like heavenly princesses clustered around a central Emperor Lotus. This majestic Poisonous Emperor Python appeared as the giant dragon under the black-lime scales of a divine deity, coiling around the Emperor Lotus with closed eyes in repose.
There’s no need to guess; one can tell that the fattest Poisonous Emperor Python is the dungeon boss.
And once they initiate an attack, the 20-plus A-level Poisonous Emperor Pythons nearby would undoubtedly swarm them, their fate predictable.
Nangong Yan’s face turned heavy. Gong Qiang tried to look over, but Qian Qi covered the light brain screen in disdain, "Are you mentally prepared?"
"What?" Gong Qiang reacted, "You don’t mean those 20-something bosses are all snakes..."
Realizing this, Gong Qiang almost fainted again but held his composure upon seeing Qian Qi’s palm whizzing towards him. He steadied himself, "I’m fine! Don’t slap me!"
He had to maintain some dignity!
Qian Qi regretfully retracted her hand.
Opportunities to slap an heir’s face weren’t common; they must be cherished.
"It’s hard to deal with..." Nangong Yan murmured, "Master, do you have a solution?"
"No." Qian Qi straightforwardly replied, "I only agreed to guide."
[Oh~ my dear invincible and generous Qian Qi boss~] The previously silent system panel suddenly popped up, enthusiastically promoting its product, [Do you want to survive under the siege of over twenty A-level Poisonous Emperor Pythons? Do you want to become the strongest Beast Master in the world and make a sensational impact? For just 30 billion...]
"No." Qian Qi directly closed her eyes, forcefully "shutting off" the system.
You devil, open your eyes!!!
