"You?"
Trina looked at Lu Minghao, who volunteered, with surprise.
As far as she knew, Lu Minghao had only temporarily joined the Scarlet Rose team for this mission, and along with him was a little girl named Sally, but that little girl should have been killed in a previous mission.
"Do you want to avenge your companion?"
After hesitating for a few seconds, Trina tentatively looked at Lu Minghao and asked.
In her opinion, Lu Minghao was completely different from Sophie.
Having just joined the Scarlet Rose team, he certainly didn't have deep feelings with the other members.
The only reason he would want to continue fighting was probably for that little girl named Sally.
"Yes, Sally is my family, but I watched her being dragged into the ground by those monsters, and at that time I retreated because of fear.
I can't forgive myself for being like that, so I must participate in the next battle, even if I am likely to face death!"
After speaking, Lu Minghao's face was filled with remorse, regret, and self-blame, as if he was filled with self-blame for his previous retreat as he said, but in reality, Lu Ping'an was still using the affiliated connection to let Sally keep Nina, whom she had captured, under control, waiting for him to return.
"I understand your feelings, but..."
Opposite him, Trina looked at Lu Minghao in this state with sympathetic eyes.
She had experienced such pain before, but it was precisely because of this that she didn't want Lu Minghao to participate in the next battle, because his strength was completely insufficient.
"Lord Trina, are you worried that my strength will hinder you?"
As he spoke, Lu Minghao suddenly raised his head to look at Trina in front of him, and a violent magical power instantly burst out from his body.
The powerful magical power even caused the air to begin to solidify, and the many magicians around Lu Minghao felt that breathing began to become difficult.
"Upper-level adventurer!"
Opposite him, Trina, as a hero, was not affected in the slightest.
Instead, she looked at Lu Minghao in front of her with a look of surprise.
She never expected that there would be an adventurer of this level of strength in the mere Scarlet Rose team.
But on second thought, it was normal, if there was no such strength, it would be impossible for any members of the Scarlet Rose team to come back alive.
"Yes, because of the inner torment and self-blame, as well as the desire for power, I successfully awakened my unique skill when I returned, and my strength has also increased a lot.
Now I can more or less be of some use in the next battle."
"Well, that's true, and we do need someone who understands the lair of those monsters in the next battle."
Trina looked at Lu Minghao in front of her and nodded lightly.
Indeed, rather than getting information about the lair of those monsters from Lu Minggao and the others, it would be more convenient to bring Lu Minghao along.
In addition, the strength of an upper-level adventurer can be considered a powerful combat force, which can buy them some time and buy time for the hero team's strongest ability.
"Then, please take care of me in the next battle, Lord Hero."
Lu Minghao looked at Trina with a gentle smile on his lips.
His handsome face, coupled with that gentle smile, was as warm as the first ray of sunshine in the morning.
Trina opposite him also showed a gentle smile, and felt in her heart that Lu Minghao was a good person.
She would try her best to protect him in the subsequent battles, after all, it would be a pity for such a handsome and righteous adventurer to die here.
Afterwards, Lu Minghao and Sophie left here and were sent to two adjacent rooms to rest, and Trina specifically told Lu Minghao to prepare recently, and when her teammates restrained the several demon king species among those monsters, they would directly gather all their strength to destroy the lair of the Gluttony Monster in one fell swoop.
On the other side, after the soldiers who sent Lu Minghao and Sophie here left, Sophie did not return to her room, but followed behind Lu Minghao and entered Lu Minghao's room.
"Thank you, Minghao."
In the room, Sophie looked at Lu Minghao sitting on the bed, with a complex expression on her rough face as she thanked him, but Lu Minghao opposite him clearly noticed a trace of vigilance in Sophie's eyes.
"You're welcome, also, Captain, what you want to say shouldn't be this, right?"
"Minghao, you... what is your purpose with Sally?"
Looking at Lu Minghao in front of her, Sophie took a deep breath and questioned with a serious face.
After all, when performing the mission in the Kingdom of Edolas before, Lu Minghao's strength throughout the whole process was only about the same as a mid-level adventurer, but now he suddenly has the strength of an upper-level adventurer.
You must know that, don't look at the fact that there is only one level difference between a mid-level adventurer and an upper-level adventurer, but the gap between them is simply worlds apart.
Upper-level adventurers can easily slaughter a large number of low and mid-level adventurers, and upper-level adventurers are also the top combat power of each kingdom.
For ordinary people and most adventurers, upper-level adventurers are already the most top-level power they can know and see under normal circumstances.
Although, Sophie had heard of some adventurers whose teammates, lovers, and friends all died in front of them during missions, and they successfully awakened their unique skills and became upper-level adventurers after experiencing endless despair.
However, in Sophie's opinion, Lu Minghao's situation was completely different from what she had heard.
Before, when Sally was dragged into the ground by that huge tentacle, Lu Minghao was fighting with other Gluttony Monsters, although Lu Minghao also tried to rush to rescue Sally during that time.
But Sophie's intuition told her that at that time, both Sally, who was grabbed by that tentacle, and Lu Minghao, who looked like he wanted to rescue her, were pretending, but later on, the continuous battles and Lu Minghao's desperate efforts to protect his teammates in the battle.
Made Sophie deny her own idea, after all, Lu Minghao was injured time and time again in order to save his teammates, and even once if she hadn't forcibly pulled Lu Minghao back, he would have rushed into the monster army and perished with those monsters.
Until just now, Lu Minghao suddenly showed the strength of an upper-level adventurer, coupled with Sally's expressionless appearance when she was grabbed by that tentacle, Sophie couldn't help but start to suspect, but she didn't say it in front of the hero, but waited until now, when only the two of them were left.
"Captain, you are really kind, knowing that it must be very dangerous to ask me this kind of question now."
Lu Minghao gently jumped off the bed with a little force, walked step by step in front of Sophie, looked at her rough face and smiled gently.
Clearly, if she had questioned him in front of the hero just now, she would definitely be the safest choice, but Sophie didn't do that, but chose to be alone with the two of them.
