Chapter 184 161. Lia Cries (Two-in-One, Subscribe Please!)_3
Lia suspected that a Soul-snatching Monster had possessed her, turning her into someone else.
Klyne and the others were happy, thinking that Snow Goose might be back on track.
However, Aiko was worried. In this state, Lia was a strong competitor and posed a risk of taking Lin Da away from her.
After all, what Lin Da cared about most initially was the powder keg.
'Damn it, even if I lose to the Little Werewolf, I can't lose to someone like Lia who flutters about, her underwear no different from that of a grade schooler. Lin Da couldn't possibly like that, could he?'
Aiko's vigilance greatly increased.
She needed to make Lin Da notice her soon, that she was the outstanding Mage that Phoenix Tail Flower needed!
...
Unknowingly, Snow Goose and his group approached the depths of the Monster Tide.
Ahead was a small hill, and just beyond it, they could see Breeze River Beach.
Lia frowned as she saw, on the small hill, a tall woman.
Her silver hair sparkled with a cold sheen under the sun.
The tightly covered maid's long skirt fluttered like a peacock's tail at the slightest wind.
Conservative, but equally beautiful.

Most importantly, Lia knew her.
Her presence here, could it mean Dawen was here too?
At that thought, Lia reacted like a cat on edge, instantly bristling.
Between her and the Scarlet Adventure Group, a battle was inevitable!
The Crimson Baron, that old fool, treated her mother like a toy.
The people of The Mandalas looked down on her and her mother for their commoner origins.
Angry, Lia had run away from home.
Her relations with The Mandalas were not good, and both Dawen and the Crimson Baron wanted to teach her a lesson.
The woman on the hill was Dawen's capable officer.
The current Snow Goose together were not enough to take on that woman!
A dark Magic Cannon was pointed straight at Lia, without any regard for her being a member of the Mandala family.
The silver-haired maid's face was cool and impassive.
'This is not a place for you, step back.'
...
On the other side.
The Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team was collecting their spoils of war.
'Captain, sir.'
Monica's face lit up with a flicker of excitement as she pointed at the body of the Red Armored Crab King, 'Are all those ours?'
'Yes,' Lin Da nodded with a smile.
He took out a short knife for cutting materials and said to Kafni, 'Come on, get to work!'
Besides the tangible materials from the Magical Creatures, Lin Da had also gained a substantial amount of Mystical Points by killing the Red Armored Crab King.
[System Message: Successfully killed a level 23, Rare Orange Level Magical Creature, Red Armored Crab King, and obtained 60000 Mystical Points!]
And a long list of attributes Lin Da had gained when he leveled up just now.
His panel was completely renewed.
Name: Lin Da
Level: 19
Profession: Chosen Healing Hero
Hit Points: 6100 (5100+1000)
Magic Power: 953 (423+530)
Strength: 953
Defense: 98 (78+20)
Magic Defense: 149 (129+20)
Agility: 110 (80+30)
Resistance: Poison Resistance 30%
Experience Points: 1000/100000
Skill Points Remaining: 3
Mystical Points: 67867
...
Reaching level 19, Lin Da's Dual Attack neared 1000.
Hit Points reached a terrifying 6100.
3 new Skill Points were available for emergencies.
They allowed him to enhance crucial skills in a certain battle.
Aside from system gains, Lin Da also obtained the corpse of a Red Armored Crab King.
This was a huge treasure!
A high-level Magical Beast, its entire body was precious.
It took three people half an hour to completely dissect the corpse.
The most attractive parts were the two fire-red, sword-sharp claws of the Red Armored Crab King.
He could commission an adventurer with the [Blacksmith] profession to forge them into a pair of top-quality, orange accessories with set attributes!
The so-called set attributes meant that when an adventurer collected all the equipment in the set, new power would burst forth.
Aside from the increase in attributes, Lin Da clearly remembered that these two orange accessories also came with a powerful skill: Death Crab Pincer!
A powerful skill of the same type as the Red Armored Crab King!
As long as the opponent's level was not more than 10 levels above Lin Da's, Death Crab Pincer could inflict True Damage.
No matter how high the opponent's defense, under Death Crab Pincer, all were equal.
Especially against someone like Chloe, a defense-specialized tank.
If Lin Da suddenly used Death Crab Pincer, it was estimated it would scare Chloe so much that her little face would turn pale and she would burst into tears.
Aside from the pair of claws of the Red Armored Crab King, its carapace and magical beast meat were also valuable materials.
With a flash of light from the Space Ring, Lin Da collected these materials inside it.
Looking inside the space with his spiritual power, it was nearly full.
These materials in the ring could sell for at least 700,000 Gold Coins!
Lin Da's level also rose from 16 to 19.
It was quite a lucrative gain.
"The Monster Tide seems to be retreating," Kafni observed distantly.
The ferocious swarm of crabs seemed to become stray dogs, retreating deep into Breeze River Beach.
It wasn't just because the Red Armored Crab King had died.
Crab swarms from various areas were all retreating.
The trumpets of victory seemed to have already sounded.
"Let's go," Lin Da, after drinking several Magic Potions and resting briefly, said to the two team members.
"Going to hunt other area bosses?" Kafni asked curiously.
"No," Lin Da said seriously, pointing towards the deepest part of Breeze River Beach, "We need to go there and meet up with the White Dove Adventure Group!"
"What?" Kafni's face changed, "Have you lost your mind? The creatures over there are at least level 30. How can we get involved? This isn't the way to pick up leftovers!"
"Picking up leftovers?" Lin Da's expression grew even more solemn.
"If I'm not wrong, the White Dove Adventure Group is about to be destroyed."
...
White Dove City, battle hall.
The staff members were jubilant, their faces brimming with joy.
"Lord Mayor, 71 Black Shell Crab Generals have been subdued, the Rock-level Squads are unstoppable and have completely suppressed the Monster Tide!"
"Well done!"
Mayor Adel, looking drained, stood in front of a holographic screen, his back drenched in cold sweat.
It was not until the Red Armored Crab King fell and Phoenix Tail Flower and Snow Goose achieved their final victory that he finally let out a long sigh of relief.
These two teams had great potential, both likely to become new Iron Levels.
Adel's mood was exhilarated.
Then, he heard more good news from the staff.
"Great!"
Adel chuckled loudly.
His gaze shifted to the central screen, where two adventure teams were displayed.
They were jointly battling a giant Red Armored Crab King.
Compared to the one Phoenix Tail Flower and Snow Goose had subdued, this one, located deep in Breeze River Beach commanding the entire Monster Tide, was larger, measuring ten meters.
Its level also reached an impressive 35.
But for some reason, as everyone looked at the giant Red Armored Crab King on the screen, there was a subtle feeling of disharmony.
It was as if this decades-old giant crab had just been born and was learning to walk for the first time.
Its battle stance was very clumsy.
