"This Olali has many family members, some of which are members of the family members, and they are beast-like guys! Those people of that kind of family members are not worth your efforts." Wang Dong stroked Refia's head with a soft expression and said softly: "But everyone in the Rocky family is definitely not that kind of person. You just saw clearly that every member here refers to your companion who entrusts your back and your life!"

"Yes!" Refia nodded her head vigorously.

"So!" Wang Dong's voice suddenly raised a little, "Believe in companions! I believe they will protect you, do you understand?"

"I understand!" Refia nodded solemnly. Nothing can convince people more than using his body to test the method! Wang Dong used his actual behavior to tell Refia the fact that he believed in his companions.

Then, Refia stepped forward, held the staff in both hands, bowed 90 degrees to Finn and others, and said loudly: "Everyone, I'm sorry! Because of my fear, I failed everyone's hope! There will be no next time!"

"Okay, Refia, everyone doesn't mean to blame you." Revilia chuckled and touched Refia's head, saying, "Everyone will have such a situation at this stage of your life, and they won't take it too seriously."

"Yeah." Refia nodded obediently, then she turned around, bowed to Wang Dong, and said, "Thank you Mr. Wang Dong for your teaching."

"It's okay, it's okay." Wang Dong waved his hand, then patted Refia's head, and said, "I know that improvement is a good kid."

"Yeah." Refia nodded quickly.

"Wait--" At this moment, Revilia suddenly looked at Refia who was touched by Wang Dong's head with surprise, and said, "Refia...you..."

"Eh?" Refia was stunned. After following Rivieria's gaze, she suddenly woke up and immediately exclaimed, "Wow!"

"...what...what happened?" Wang Dong's hand suddenly froze on Refia's head, and he said with an embarrassment: "Hey? Could it be that the elf has any customs...the head touching... or something?"

"No, not this." Revelia shook her head, looked at Wang Dong in surprise, and said, "Although I, the elf, seem a bit like a boasting, but... our elf is actually a very arrogant race. It's okay if a half-elves are, but purebred elfs - such as Refia - will physically refuse other people's touch!"

"...No?" Wang Dong looked at Refia with surprise. He didn't expect that this girl who looked soft and cute actually had such characteristics?

"The only people who can touch the elves are except for some specific races that make the elves recognize from the heart." Revilia said, looking at Refia with a gentle look, and said: "It seems that your behavior just now has made this child recognize you from the heart."

"Is that true?" Wang Dong blinked and looked at the elf in front of him with a smile.

"Why... what to say, Mr. Wang Dong just now had a...stern, master's feeling!" Refia covered her face with a embarrassed look and said in a low voice: "It gives people a...very trustworthy feeling."

"Hahahaha!" Finn suddenly burst out with a hearty laughter when he heard Refia's words and said, "Since that's the case, let that Wang Dong teach you more, Refia."

"Hey, hey, you're a newcomer to your family!" Wang Dong glanced at Finn who was extremely treacherous and smiling, and said helplessly: "Presponsible as the leader of the group, hey!"

"Oh, look at what you said, are you dislike Refia?" Finn asked back with a joking smile.

"Hey? Yes...is it true?" Refia looked at Wang Dong with a pitiful look on her face.

"...Finn, wait." Wang Dong looked at Finn with a dark face and said gritting his teeth: "Don't let me find a chance!"

"Hahaha--" Everyone looked at Wang Dong's helpless expression and immediately made loud and loud voices.

It has to be said that Wang Dong’s behavior just now indeed won the “heart” of the Rocky family members, and he felt that “I will repay those who treat me with sincerity.”

"Okay, let's talk about the main business." Wang Dong waved his hand helplessly and said, "How about it, Finn, are you still going to continue the expedition?"

"..." Finn couldn't help looking around for a week when he heard Wang Dong's words, then sighed heavily and said: "Although the core personnel were not injured, a considerable number of the personnel at the second-level were hit by the corrosion fluid, and the materials were also melted by the splashed corrosion fluid. It seems that this expedition can only stop."

"A correct and wise judgment." Wang Dong smiled softly.

It is correct to give up and keep moving forward:

Reason 1: The entrance to the 19th floor has been filled with stones falling due to the invasion of green insects. I don’t know how long it will take to wait for the automatic repair of the maze;

Reason 2: The materials used to prepare on the road have been eroded by corrosive fluid by nearly 40%, and the remaining part is not enough to support the team to reach a location above the fifty floor;

Reason 3: Most of the people from lv.2 to lv.4 are contaminated with corrosion fluid. Even if the treatment fluid removes the corrosion damage, it is just emergency treatment.

The most important thing is that since such a monster appears in the eighteenth level, it is naturally necessary to investigate the reason for its appearance. Otherwise, what should we do if the same new monster appears in the later level?

"Hey--disappointed." Gemini sister sighed and said helplessly, "It's rare that we've all been here, but we're going back."

"Okay, okay, don't sigh. At worst, after returning to the ground, I'll find an opportunity to make a big meal for you. How about it?" Wang Dong smiled and rubbed Gemini's head, saying, "I'm sure it's many times better than the previous soup!"

"Oh oh oh, really!?" Gemini's eyes suddenly lit up. She jumped on Wang Dong's body with excitement, and saved him like a koala, and said excitedly: "Little brother, you are such a good man!"

‘How can my sister be so crazy?’ Gemini sister curled her lips disdainfully.

"Okay, everyone, pack our luggage, we're ready to go back!" Finn clapped his hands and shouted at the others, "Teonie, come and help."

"Yes~~Captain~~" Gemini sister's eyes turned into love and rushed to Finn like a loyal dog.

‘How can my sister be so crazy?’ Gemini sister curled her lips disdainfully.

—————

—————

After spending more than half an hour to sort out the remaining and intact things, Wang Dong and Finn took the lead, and the members of the Rocky family gradually walked towards the seventeenth level.

"Ahhh, this time I'm really losing a lot." The Gemini sister hugged her hands behind her head and said with a pitiful look: "Not only did not go deeper, my Urga is gone."

"Speaking of it, Tiona's weapon is very distinctive." Wang Dong tilted his mind and added to the weapon of Tiona's Gemini sister Tiona.

To describe this weapon roughly, it is like two one-handed swords putting the hilts together, and most people really can't play with it.

"Eh? Is that?" Tiona blinked, then scratched her head and said, "Ah haha, but I've been used to it for so many years... it's a bit unpleasant to replace it with other weapons."

"So that's it..." Wang Dong touched his chin and said, "Well, judging from Tiona's fighting style, your weapon should be seriously worn, right?"

"Ahem, okay, it seems like this..." Gemini girl scratched her face with an awkward look on her face and said, "So most of my money is used to build weapons... Woo..."

The whole person was lost.

"Well, why not do that." Wang Dong snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "If Tiona can provide the materials, I don't mind helping you create a second-generation Urga order - ah, maybe more than the second-generation order? - In short, it's a new weapon, and I will help you enchant the "unbad" attribute!"

"Oh oh oh, really!" Hearing Wang Dong's words, Gemini sister was so happy that she almost jumped up.

"Really." Wang Dong nodded with a smile and said, "I never lie..."

"Ho huh huh--"

Before he could finish his words, a rough roar came from everyone's side, and brown figures were "bred" from the wall of the maze.

"Is it...Minothanos?" The Gemini sister shouted at the brown-skinned, bull-headed, and human-body monsters that appeared.

"Let the newcomer go first, and the others get there!" Finn reacted quickly and said, "Go!"

A group of lv.5 and lv.6 bosses were escorted. Other members of the Rocky family ran towards the ground quickly, and Wang Dong and others cleaned up Minotaoth in the back.

"Tsk tsk, I didn't expect to encounter a refreshing monster on the way back." Wang Dong teased, waved his hand and cut off a cow's head, saying, "I instantly earn a wave of magic stones, it's so beautiful."

"Hey, Ess, one of them is missing!" Suddenly, Bert's voice came to the direction to the sixteenth floor, "Chase over!"
