Chapter 166: Chapter 153 Warrior Pot Fragments and Friendly Pot Part 2

Although it might make him seem greedy, Leon still had to ask: "After we find it, can you give us something similar to this?" He was referring to a small shard of the Warrior Pot.

The Warrior Pot swayed back and forth and then drew a large circle in mid-air with its hand, seemingly suggesting that it could offer something even better.

Great, rewards motivate adventurers!

He double-checked the information with the Warrior Pot, which didn’t know where the warehouse was, but it was definitely not far from here; one just had to search carefully.

It sounded unreliable, but Leon remembered that the tablet mentioned the road to the warehouse was crowded with Monsters, so he figured the road with the most Monsters should be the way to go.

He turned around to call Maru back, only to see her bending over—

And plucking the yellow wildflower surrounded by the Little Pots.

It was an ordinary action, yet Leon suddenly felt a chill, as if Maru had done something she shouldn’t have.

Seeing their beloved wildflower being picked, the Little Pots were collectively stunned, standing there like they had lost their souls, making one feel heartache.

Nearby, next to the graves stacked with pots, several Big Pots were trembling, as if they were about to spring up from the ground!

Maru, seemingly oblivious to it all, placed the wildflower on top of one of the Little Pots circling around her, complimenting, "It looks beautiful."

The Little Pot looked at Maru, then at its disheartened companions, appearing somewhat helpless.

"Maru, come back!"

Leon immediately shouted, but just then, Maru pulled out a Magic Scroll from her waist, tore it open, and scattered it into the air.

The scroll instantly transformed into a myriad of flowing lights, and as the lights hit the ground, flowers identical to the yellow wildflowers sprouted up, covering the graveyard in an instant, making it look even more like a park than before, filled with life and beauty.

This graveyard’s atmosphere completely contrasted with that of Sain Dungeon.

Not only was Leon stunned, but even the Big Pots that had just started to move stopped.

"...What are you doing?" Drew said with a bit of a stomachache, "That’s not how you’re supposed to use a Magic Scroll."

"I noticed they loved the flower, but having only one seemed too pitiful," Maru shrugged her shoulders. "Don’t worry, I only used a cheap blooming Magic."

Although Leon wanted to question why she carried a seemingly useless blooming magic with her, he noticed the Little Pots jumping around happily, dancing around Maru.

Okay, did this max out their favorability towards us?

The Little Pots were excited, and so was the Warrior Pot, who started pulling out one item after another from the nearby pots into Leon’s hands, such as [Hero Meat], [Raw Meatballs], [Robust Jerky], and so on, so many that he almost couldn’t carry them all.

Maru’s casual act of kindness ended up reaping so many rewards, it felt like something that could be used to educate children.

As the group left the graveyard inhabited by the pots, they received a unanimous send-off from the pots, with each person’s head adorned with a yellow wildflower wreath, all handmade by the Little Pots.

No wonder the introduction mentioned that Warrior Pots are such adorable fellows.

Maru touched the wreath and smiled brightly, no doubt having released all the stress and suffering she endured inside the Meat Pigeon just now.

"I didn’t expect that there would be [Events] even in Sain Dungeon," Leon said: "I was wondering why, unlike other dungeons, there were no events here, and thought that it was a feature of this place."

The so-called [Events] are common occurrences in most dungeons.

Each underground level has more or less a background story, and corresponding to that, some events related in accordance with the background story appear in the dungeons; it could be a lingering soul asking you to find something, or looking for an item to unlock a mechanism, coming in various forms.

Simply put, they are side quests.

Gong Qiying learned about these things through the Knowledge Crystal and thus added a simple side quest: the Warrior Pot.

Why is it considered simple? Because the warehouse and the dwelling of pots are not far from each other, and they can be found quickly. The only difficulty lies in the presence of an Elite Monster in the warehouse.

Of course, if one doesn’t want to take on the side quest, they can skip it altogether. There’s no need to fight the Elite Monster, but the rewards would be lesser.

However, the monsters blocking the path are no match for the Strategy Group.

They quickly found the repair materials and returned them to the Warrior Pot, working with frightening efficiency.

Having received the repair materials, the Warrior Pot remained silent.

"Do you need my help?" Maru kindly asked.

The Warrior Pot gestured a wave of the hand and handed over the rewards for this mission.

[Warrior Pot Shard]

[Wearing it increases Combat Skill attack strength]

It seems to be an upgrade from the [Little Warrior Pot Shard]. This reward isn’t bad.

But besides this, there was also a protective talisman.

[Friendly Pot]

[Wearing it while throwing pots will fill you with strength]

[A protective talisman given by the pot group to friends, it enhances the power when throwing pot-related items. The pot group uses human flesh as the source of life, yet their nature is very kind, and perhaps that kindness is the reason why they were born]

When they clearly saw the item description, two hands reached out for the talisman at once.

It was Maru and Leon!

Their eyes clashed, each flashing an uncompromising aura; it seemed both were determined to obtain the Friendly Pot.

"I gave them flowers, so I am the friend of the pots," Maru held on tightly to the Friendly Pot.

"I need it too," Leon gripped Maru’s wrist, his Feces Pot at his side seemed to remind him that he must get this talisman.

Both of them said in unison: "Let’s roll the dice!"

In the end, Maru was victorious.

Leon, reluctant to part with the Friendly Pot, watched it being taken away; a Little Pot handed him a small flower, as if to comfort him.

His lips twitched, and he reluctantly accepted the flower with a forced smile.

Thus, the [Event] was declared complete, and the Strategy Group was once again warmly sent off by all the Warrior Pots, with the Warrior Pots thoughtfully pointing out their next exploration path.

Following this path all the way down, slaughtering countless Monsters, eventually, everyone arrived in front of the Fog Gate.

Behind this lies the boss of this path, probably a choice between the Death Knight and the Call Ship, as the aura coming from within is not very strong, likely not the Death Ritual Bird.

After all, the latter has a specific weakening mechanic implemented, suggesting it must be very powerful.

Drew was chanting to cast enhancement-type Magic for everyone, Gapar was impatient to enter and slay monsters, and just at this moment, a Summoning Mark suddenly appeared in front of the Fog Gate.
