That exhilaration lasted for a whole half hour!
All those present were God Hunters, with plenty of stamina—at dancing for another half hour wouldn’t be a problem, but they couldn’t just keep dancing on and on!
They had to figure out a way to deal with that maid.
Fortunately, the maid also had enough fun and the upbeat music turned into a slow, soothing blues.
"Come, hold my waist, and follow my steps!"
Nangong Shu wrapped his arms around Lin Baici and began to waltz.
"Aunt Shu, I could actually teach him!"
Xia Hongyao, seeing that the surroundings were all men, finally gave up on the leather-pants woman.
After a light dance, the music came to an end.
The maid pulled out a large cushion from her suitcase and spread it on the ground.
This cushion was woven of wool and embroidered with castles, giant dragons, monsters, princesses, and other fantasy elements.
"Quick, form a circle and sit down!"
The maid reached under her skirt, took out a candle, lit it, and placed it on the carpet. Then, from under her hem, she pulled out a set of cards and shook them at everyone: "Let’s play a board game, ’Escape from the Dungeon’!"
"This round feels like a role-playing game?"
The transgender person had played such board games, commonly known as running a group.
The maid urged, walking past each person.
After Xia Hongyao drew her card, she was about to flip it over to look.
Lin Baici grabbed her hand.
"Don’t let other people see!"
Lin Baici was speechless. Look at these people, all guarding against others like thieves, and there you are, the most careless one.
Xia Hongyao covered her card with both hands, took a peek, and then shook it at Lin Baici.
It depicted a giant dragon.
Fierce and domineering.
Lin Baici looked at his own card.
It was a green-skinned monster, small-headed with a big body, wearing a set of tattered leather armor, wielding a thick Nail Head Hammer.
Xia Hongyao, upon seeing the illustration on Lin Baici’s card, couldn’t hold back and snorted with laughter.
High Ponytail patted Lin Baici’s shoulder: "My card is good, I’ll take care of you!"
In fantasy games, Dragons are basically the toughest bosses, while Goblins are just newbie village killers, considered free experience points.
"Has everyone drawn a card?"
The crazy maid looked around, and after confirming that everyone had a card, she announced the rules: "Now, please feel free to form teams. Each team must have at least three members and no more than seven!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked towards Lin Baici.
"Handsome, can I join your team?"
The leather-pants woman, acting familiar, wrapped her arms around Lin Baici’s shoulders: "If I die, how will I repay the money I owe you?"
"Handsome, add me to your team!" The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the novèlfire.net
"I’m Violent Bear Level!"
"Let’s work together, shall we?"
Lin Baici’s previous performance had won everyone’s trust; they all wanted to team up with him. Some spoke in a humbler tone, placing themselves low, while others discussed as equals.
"Aunt Shu, what’s your pick?"
Lin Baici removed the leather-pants woman’s arm.
This bar belonged to the boss lady; she probably knew the details of these customers and could pick out the tough experts.
"Boss, I’m fine with being a regular team member, I’ll follow your lead!"
The boss lady didn’t overstep, deciding to stick with Lin Baici: "But I hope you can take care of my staff!"
There were only two waitresses in this bar, primarily responsible for cleaning. Both had died in the first and second rounds, and now only a Bartender was left.
"Boss lady, I count as your employee too, right?"
The dwarf also wanted to join Lin Baici’s team.
"I’ll offer five hundred Meteorite Coins!"
The old man raised his hand: "Count me in!"
The transgender bidder retorted, "Five hundred? Who do you think you’re looking down on?"
No one expected that these two individuals would actually start bidding with money in their eagerness to join Lin Baici’s team. Wasn’t this a bit too exaggerated?
He was outstanding, but was it necessary to go to such lengths?
Shen Fujiang couldn’t understand it, but deep inside, he felt envious.
Why don’t you guys pay to join my team?
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am the Lion King!"
Shen Fujiang announced his level.
Everyone turned their heads and gave Shen Fujiang a look.
Just as Shen Fujiang was getting ready to make a speech and pick a few strong teammates, they shifted their gaze away.
Don’t you fucking know you’re Lin Baici’s enemy?
Joining your team would mean making an enemy of this Lin Baici, right?
And to be honest, you’re too strong; everyone is afraid of being exploited by you.
"Sorry, it’s not up to me this time!"
Nangong Shu apologized to the dwarfs.
"Lin Baici, Red Medicine, Aunt Shu, High Ponytail sister, Bartender, Dwarf, we need one more!"
Lin Baici glanced at the old man and the transgender individual.
"I bid two thousand!"
The old man gritted his teeth, betting on Lin Baici to bring him good luck.
The transgender bidder’s mental price was a thousand; they looked at Lin Baici, "Kick out that Bartender and Dwarf, take me along, isn’t picking up a free thousand Meteorite Coins good? Plus, my strength is not bad either."
Lin Baici looked at the two of them.
The Bartender and Dwarf were torn; they weren’t wealthy, otherwise they wouldn’t be working here. But now, in this situation, if they didn’t pay, why would anyone help them?
The Bartender and Dwarf were close to exploding with rage, wanting to scream out "Having money is really something, huh!"
"Sorry, they’re the owner’s employees."
Lin Baici still refused.
Upon hearing this, the Bartender and Dwarf looked pleased.
When Nangong Shu heard Lin Baici’s response, her attractive eyebrows lifted, thinking this boy was worth befriending!
He has the touch of a lover!
"Little Linzi, I won’t let you lose out, I’ll give you ten thousand Meteorite Coins!"
Nangong Shu wasn’t stingy at all.
"No need, that’s too much!"
Lin Baici shook his head.
[The owner’s goodwill toward you +1, you don’t want to be looked down upon by other girls, right? So, you might as well use her to practice your skills!]
Lin Baici always felt that this skill wasn’t very decent.
"One more minute for team formation, hurry up!"
Shen Fujiang was so angry he could spit blood because no one wanted to be on his team, which left him at a loss.
I’m the fucking Lion King!
Don’t I have any presence?
Shen Fujiang really wanted to shout out, but to do so would be utterly low.
"I don’t have that many Meteorite Coins on me right now, can I give them to you after we leave this rules-polluted place?"
The old man said with a beaming smile.
Lin Baici was indifferent.
"Team formation time is over, the game begins."
The maid finished speaking and suddenly bowed her head, and with a whoosh, blew out the candle.
