43: Cook, nanny and secretary
“Home put away.”
“Take out the Ling Neng Flying Car.”
“Replenish Spiritual Energy.”
Stepping out of the Home, Liu Yang issued several commands in quick succession.
Then he began to arrange today's actions.
“Later, Ning Yan and I will go clear out the Shadow Poison Toads. Having more people isn’t very useful against them.”
“Frost Skill and Ning Xiu, you two explore the passages we haven’t been to yet.”
“Ning Yan and I won’t need the Ling Neng Flying Car, so you can use it.”
“Remember, safety is paramount.”
“Even if there’s a slight danger, don’t hesitate; immediately activate the Ling Neng Flying Car and retreat.”
“I wouldn’t want to lose a chef with such great cooking skills.”
“Oh, and a hardworking, beautiful little nanny.”
Hearing Liu Yang’s address for her two older sisters, Guan Ningyan’s curiosity was piqued.
“Big Sister is the chef, Second Sister is the nanny, so what about me? What am I?”
“You?” Liu Yang glanced at Guan Ningyan, remembering her saying she would buy and sell things for him during the live stream.
He tentatively asked, “Tool person?”
“Tool person? No, I don’t want that.”
As soon as he heard she was unwilling, Liu Yang said, “Then, little secretary?”
When there’s work, the secretary does it; when there’s no work...
Thinking of this, Guan Ningyan’s small face flushed, and she shyly said,
“Isn’t there anything else?”
Liu Yang didn’t want to waste any more time and said with a straight face,
“Just these two, you pick one yourself.”
Guan Ningyan pouted, feeling wronged, and chose one.
“Then… then little secretary it is.”
Inside the Shadow Poison Toad passage.
In just a few days.
Many mosquitoes and insects had reappeared in the cleared passage.
Before Liu Yang could make a move, Guan Ningyan raised her insecticide and sprayed wildly.
Flying mosquitoes dropped, ants kicked their legs, and soon they turned to dust.
A yellow light flashed, and Guan Ningyan leveled up.
“Ah, I accidentally reached Level 5, that was fast.”
Guan Ningyan was stunned for a moment, then cheered and jumped around.
“Alright, it’s just Level 5, there’s no huge benefit, let’s hurry up.”
Liu Yang urged her with a poker face.
“Oh~”
Guan Ningyan seemed to have had a bucket of cold water poured on her, and she instantly wilted.
Along the next stretch of the path.
Occasionally, a few Dungeon Rats would scurry out.
Liu Yang still didn't make a move, leaving it to Guan Ningyan to handle.
She was seen raising her repeating crossbow and firing, shooting all ten arrows in one breath.
And her opponent was just one Dungeon Rat.
“...”
Liu Yang was speechless and sighed:
“Sigh, if you’re going to shoot arrows, can you please not close your eyes?”
“It’s just one Dungeon Rat, can you aim before you shoot?”
“You’re wearing leather armor, as long as you don’t get bitten above the neck, you’ll be fine. Do you really need to be that scared?”
“Mm.”
Guan Ningyan readily accepted Liu Yang’s correction.
“Da Lao, watch me closely, I promise I won’t make the same mistake next time.”
Subsequently.
Guan Ningyan’s archery skills greatly improved.
From needing ten arrows to kill one rat, she could now take it down in three or four shots.
Soon after.
Shadow Poison Toads appeared.
【Shadow Poison Toad Lv16: Skilled in concealment, can change skin color with the environment, likes to ambush opponents in the dark, highly venomous. It will self-destruct when its life is in danger.】
“You step back, I need to test the effect of the detoxification potion.”
To personally experience the process and time of the potion taking effect, Liu Yang waved Guan Ningyan away.
He didn't even aim carefully.
With a flick of his repeating crossbow, an arrow shot towards the Shadow Poison Toad.
【You shot the Shadow Poison Toad in the hind leg with an arrow, the Second Kill skill triggered, the Shadow Poison Toad self-destructed, and the Shadow Poison Toad died.】
【Congratulations! You killed a Shadow Poison Toad and obtained shadow poison toad skin x1, phoenix flower x3, corrosion grass x2, Spiritual Energy x1.】
“Take out the Primary Detoxification Potion.”
Watching the mist from the Shadow Poison Toad's self-destruction drift over, Liu Yang flipped his palm, and the detoxification potion appeared in his hand.
He took a large step forward, inhaling the faint mist into his abdominal cavity.
Liu Yang instantly felt a wave of dizziness.
He uncorked the test tube and tilted his head back, drinking the detoxification potion in one gulp.
First, there was a burst of heat, which then turned into a chill.
After the alternating sensations of ice and fire, Liu Yang regained consciousness.
“It really works.”
“Since that’s the case, there’s nothing to fear.”
【You concocted a beginner hallucination potion. shadow poison toad skin -1, blood-sucking wood -1, corpse soul grass -2, corrosion grass -3.】
【Congratulations! You obtained a beginner hallucination potion.】
“I can make four more with the other medicinal ingredients; what’s missing is the shadow poison toad skin.”
“Killing two exploded two pieces. I wonder if it’s a guaranteed drop for each one, like Spiritual Energy, or if I just got lucky.”
“Anyway, I hope more materials drop.”
With this assurance, Liu Yang gained confidence.
He no longer acted hesitantly.
At the same time.
With Liu Yang’s permission, Guan Ningyan also started her live stream.
“Fellow netizens, this fairy is going to have her first live stream show in the Underground Palace World this time. I hope everyone will support me.”
“To avoid missing any exciting moments, please pin this information.”
“Today’s live stream theme is ‘Da Lao’s Daily Monster Slaying,’ and the protagonist is our beloved, universally adored (millions of praises omitted here) Lord Liu Yang.”
“And what is Da Lao’s opponent today? Please see my screenshot below.”
“Alright, without further ado, Da Lao has started moving, let’s keep up quickly, it’s exhausting.”
When Guan Ningyan’s live stream video was released, the world chat channel immediately went wild.
“Damn it, in reality, I got carried away watching live streams and gave away all my assets. How come I can’t escape the fate of watching live streams even in the Underground Palace World?!”
“Whether you watch or not is up to you. What I want to know is why this little beauty is so impressive. This is a survival game, people die! Do you think it’s a wilderness live stream?!”
“Dungeon survival and wilderness live streams should be similar, right? Of course, I want to know how to kill this Level 16 monster. I can only defeat Level 3 rats right now.”
“Finally, a chance to witness the splendor of Lord Liu Yang! Let me learn his survival skills well.”
The moment Guan Ningyan started her live stream, countless people began to discuss it animatedly.
At the same time, this news spread rapidly.
Immediately after, countless more people rushed over.
“Where is it, where is it? I heard the little beauty started a live stream. I’m curious, can you even live stream in this Dungeon?”
“Actually, I’m a big internet celebrity in real life. Little beauty, please guide me, how can I live stream? I’ll reward you handsomely.”
“Didn’t they say it was a beauty live stream? Didn’t they say we could witness Da Lao’s splendor? Where is it?”
“If you want to watch the live stream, please search for keywords ‘Guan Ningyan,’ ‘live stream,’ ‘Liu Yang’.”
“Thank you, good people live long and prosper.”
As more and more people paid attention, the number of private messages asking for guidance also increased.
Some asked directly.
Others offered a small token of appreciation before asking for advice.
Guan Ningyan ignored them for now, concentrating on following closely behind Liu Yang.
Suddenly, Liu Yang stopped.
Guan Ningyan understood; there must be Shadow Poison Toads ahead.
So, she began to explain with her thoughts.
“Attention, attention! Shadow Poison Toads have appeared ahead, please watch carefully.”
Guan Ningyan was right; there were indeed Shadow Poison Toads ahead.
But not one, but two.
To celebrate the removal of a troublesome wisdom tooth, there will be three updates today, with one more tonight.
