262 The expedition begins
Tower of Babel, in front of the entrance to the dungeon.
When everything was ready, Finn stood directly in front of the troops and began the pre-battle mobilization.
"Everyone, this expedition has officially begun-"
The originally noisy atmosphere immediately fell silent, and everyone in the entire central square focused on the little man standing in front of the entrance steps, accompanied by Riveria and Grace on the left and right.
"This time, because of the support of the two allies of the Hestia clan and the Hephaestus clan, the expedition operation is also different from before, we don't need too many logistics support troops, we only need to concentrate the main combat strength and form a strong force that charges into battle.
"After entering the dungeon, I went to the safe area of the 50th floor in one go, and after a little repair there, I killed the floor that the previous person had never reached-
"59th floor!!"
From his small body, a bold declaration erupted, shaking the ears of everyone present.
"As an adventurer, this will be the biggest adventure we have ever experienced for all of us, but the strong emotions that fill my heart at this moment are not the slightest uneasiness or nervousness, only excitement and urgency.
"I believe that you must do the same, because each of us is the best adventurer of Olali, and a brave warrior no less than the heroes of the ancients!"
From the main streets, from the corners of the squares, from the windows of the towers.
Residents, merchants, gods, adventurers, everyone in the city is watching the departure of the Loki clan and looking forward to their end.
"In this expedition, we will challenge the great unknown, and bring back unprecedented wealth and fame, and receive the honor that the whole world sings for us, but—
"We don't need a false honor built on sacrifice! Each and every one of us must swear to the light of this earth, to our own Lord God—"
"Will definitely come back alive!!"
Just as everyone clenched their fists and couldn't help but cheer out loud, Finn seemed to say goodbye to the sky above him for a moment, took a breath, and then gave orders.
"Expeditionary force, go!!"
"-Oooo
The high-pitched battle cries converged and resounded throughout the sky above Oralie.
In the midst of the boiling shouts, the expeditionary force, mainly composed of Loki's clan, either calmly or excitedly, entered the monster lair under the white-walled giant tower in turn.
Towards the depths of this dark labyrinth, towards the unknown area that no one has reached......
……
Temple of the Sun.
Originally a palace belonging to Apollo, it is now the new home of the Hestian family.
In the largest bedroom of the palace, Hestia, Haruhime, and Betty's three daughters were really overdrawn last night, so they were still in a coma.
The two sisters, Rem and Ram, stood on the highest observation deck in the palace and looked at the site of the boiling Tower of Babel.
"We're leaving."
"Well, it's gone."
"I really want to go with my master~!"
……
Dusk Pavilion.
After watching Finn and the others leave the headquarters, Loki climbed to the top of the mansion's central tower, staring intently at the roar of the city's screams.
"It's really heart-wrenching~!"
"So, I hate waiting the most."
"Is there anyone who cares for the empty nest goddess~!"
……
Guild headquarters, underground altar.
Surrounded by the light of the torch, Ouranos, who was sitting alone on the stone seat, also slowly raised his head at this moment, and his pale blue eyes looked above his head blocked by darkness.
"The end result is victory or calamity."
"Well, let me see you again......"
……
The highest level of the white-walled tower.
The enchanting goddess, her eyes staring at the filthy soul through the layers of intervals, holding her pretty face full of spring in both hands, rippling with a charming smile.
……
…
Under the gaze of the citizens and the witness of the gods, this unique expedition finally began.
Due to Yi Tiancheng's participation, those heavy daily necessities and spare weapons and equipment were all taken over by him and stored in the storage space.
Thanks to his help, the expeditionary force abandoned a large number of logistics support troops and reduced it to a 23-man raider force.
This strategy team is divided into two parts: the combat group and the support group.
The battle group is led by the triumvirate of Finn, Grace, and Riveria, and includes six high-level adventurers at Lv5, including Ace, Bert, Diona, Tione, and Tsubaki.
The supporters are led by Yi Tiancheng, who is already level 4, and the personnel include Raul, Refia, Tsuko, Shino and nine senior blacksmiths, all of whom are level 3 adventurers.
With such a luxurious lineup, the upper floors of the dungeon are naturally rampant, so the whole process goes straight down along various shortcuts.
In less than half a day, everyone arrived at the crystal cave refreshed by the boss on the 37th floor, and after a short rest here, they continued to move forward.
A day later, the party arrived on the 50th floor of the dungeon and began setting up camp there.
Like the 18th floor, the 50th floor is also a safe floor that does not spawn monsters, and the total area of this floor is already as large as the entire Oralie.
However, unlike the fairytale-like environment of the 18th floor, it is almost as if it is covered in erupting volcanic ash, and even the forest inside the level is dyed gray.
Thankfully, there are vein-like cyan streams between the tall trees, and there are also rock pillars resembling huge stalactites that glow with faint phosphorescence at the zenith of the sky, which can meet the most basic lighting.
"Alright, let's camp here!"
Finn stamped his feet and settled on a boulder with an unobstructed view of the gray forest.
In addition, it is less than 200 meters away from the entrance to the next floor.
Yi Tiancheng nodded, found a vacant space, and took out fourteen large cargo boxes from the storage space.
Raul immediately stepped forward and opened the box, took out the magic stone lamps and lit them.
In the flickering light, Grace gave various commands roughly, and everyone began to assist each other, putting the iron stakes into the ground, setting up the brackets, rolling up the ropes, and erecting the tents one by one.
Later, they fetch firewood in the nearby forest, then move to the camp and light a bonfire to prepare food.
For Loki's family, these were basic operations, so everything was in full swing and in an orderly manner.
It wasn't long before everyone gathered around the campfire in the center of the camp and began to enjoy the steaming broth and delicious fruit from the underground labyrinth.
"Chengjun, do you owe them money and haven't paid it back?"
I saw Tsubaki holding the jerky in his mouth and a soup bowl in his hand, sitting beside Yi Tiancheng with a big grin, and asked curiously:
"Owe money?" Yi Tiancheng nibbled on a large duck pear with a particularly strange shape and an appearance like a devil fruit, and replied casually, "How is this possible." ”
"But along the way, I always feel that something is not quite right, especially when they look at you, it feels like a ......"
"It's like I stole the flower of their family."
"Yes, that's it." Tsubaki devoured the jerky and laughed heartily, "You shouldn't have attacked Loki!" After all, you are recognized as the "Goddess Killer" and the "Goddess's Shared Lover". ”
This Nima, will not chat.
Yi Tiancheng's face froze, and he was speechless for a moment.
It's not that I care what others think of him, but to say that he has a relationship with Loki is almost the same as having a relationship with him.
After all, Loki's guy, compared to him, is only missing the phantom limb of optimus under his crotch.
If she can use her divine powers, she will definitely not mind turning herself into the goddess of Da Ding Ding, and then, like Yi Tiancheng, will scourge the whole of Oulali.
"Don't make a fuss, even if I make a move on your main god, I won't be able to fight Loki's idea."
Seeing that Tsubaki still wanted to continue to investigate, Yi Tiancheng immediately changed the topic and said: "As for the weird atmosphere you said, it's probably my existence that has brought them some pressure and stimulated their competitiveness."
"What do you say? Werewolf Brother—"
