Chapter Twenty-Four: The Empty Floor

"You say, there's not a single monster on the floor after that?!"

Riveria's expression was visibly stunned. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"That's right."

Finn, who took the main members of the Loki clan except for Ace and Bert, said that Ace and Bert were transferred to the back of the team for defense because of the slightly higher consumption before and the sudden change in the situation of the floor after that.

"It's incredible, but that's the way it is, the scouts I just sent back and reported that they couldn't see a monster on at least five floors after that - they wanted to go deeper, but they thought the situation was too weird and sent two people back to report to me."

"It's a weird situation....... Do you want to interrupt this expedition for a while? ”

The dwarf in the group with the bearing of an elder man, Gareth, the leader of the other team before, frowned at his already ravine-lined brow.

Obviously, as a dwarf, Su Mo always thought that he was the kind of drunkard and short-tempered like the legend. However, this Gareth has a very gentle personality - as he gives the impression that he always thinks about the younger generations of the whole family from the perspective of the elders.

And now it is exactly like this, even if it is such a popular expedition, he still chooses to propose a temporary suspension for the sake of the safety of the children.

But

"That's why we can't stop!"

Finn said in a sonorous tone, "Don't forget that we organized this expedition to investigate the anomalies that took place in the dungeon? We in the Loki clan are one of the two clans at the top of the world, and it's up to us to find out what happened to the other adventurers before the mutation causes more serious effects! ”

"That's right, that's right! And the fact that this kind of thing happened is not a testament to the amusement of this aberration....... Ahem, is there a crisis of the situation?! ”

The younger of the Amazon sisters, Tiona, who was carrying a large double-bladed sword, had an excited expression on her face.

- Unlike her sister, who has a calmer personality, this girl is quite innocent and curious about new things in Su Mo's observation, and she is the most familiar person in Loki's family who talks to him and Esther besides Loki.

"Is that what everyone thinks?"

Finn looked around.

"I agree with the head of the regiment."

Theona's sister Theonne said.

"Gareth, if there is any danger, then we will do our best to solve it, if we can't do this, we will have to hand it over to the 'fierce man'."

Riveria replied indifferently.

"I'll just see if I don't speak—by the way, Riveria, who's that fierce man?"

Although he joined the team, Su Mo, who did not have the right to participate in decision-making, raised his hand and asked.

“......”

Riveria smiled bitterly: "Although I knew it from the beginning, I still didn't expect your common sense to be so bad - that fierce man is Olali's only lv.7, known as Olali's final weapon, and the leader of the Freya clan who is equal to our Loki clan, is named Horta." ”

Freya .......

As a result, Su Mo didn't feel anything about the answer to his question, but suddenly shuddered because of the name of the goddess.

"How?"

"I always feel that the name Freya contains endless malice to me......."

Su Mo said with some uncertainty: "Although I definitely don't know her, my sixth sense as a man tells me that guy shouldn't be a good woman." ”

'What the hell is your man's sixth sense!!' But the conclusion is surprisingly accurate!! ’

-- That's probably everyone's face.

"That...... Something about the goddess Freya......."

Rivilia became a little stumbling a little, "It's better not to dig into it, just remember that it's best not to contact her." ”

It will be eaten cleanly.

"Don't worry, I'll stay away."

Su Mo said that he didn't have such an idle egg pain.

"Okay, that's the end of the gossip, it's time to enter the floor below, Su Mo is okay with us, right?"

Finn clapped his hands and said, asking Su Mo's opinion by the way.

"Of course not, it's better to ask for it."

A big white tooth with a neat mouth.

.....................

“...... Really, not a single monster has been refreshed..... What's going on here? ”

Theogne crouched down and crushed the dust from the ground, feeling a little like the dust of a monster being crushed.

This is the fifty-fifth floor, the floor where the explorers have returned.

"Are the remaining three people going on?"

"Yes, let's both come back and report first, and they'll continue to investigate - because the three of them are better at concealment than we do, so there's no problem."

Finn sent a team of five people, all of whom are adventurers around lv.4, and although they specialize in different directions, they are all helpful in secret detection.

"........ here"

However, Su Mo stood alone outside the team, pressing one hand on the wall that originally refreshed the monster and twisting his eyebrows.

"What's wrong?"

Only Riveria kept an eye on him.

"The energy in the walls is drained."

Su Mo turned his head and said.

"Energy?"

The deputy head of the elf was puzzled.

"Well, maybe most of you haven't noticed, or you haven't sensed the ability to this extent, but in the previous level, there was a certain ability flowing in places like this to refresh monsters, but from the level where there were no monsters just now, this feeling disappeared all at once."

In fact, this kind of thing is quite easy to ignore, because there has always been such energy in the previous floors, so Su Mo regarded it as a normal phenomenon and didn't pay much attention to it, but now those energies have disappeared all of a sudden, and there is not even a monster on these floors, and the strange sense of disobedience made him notice these places at once.

It's like when you have a beautiful girl poster in your room all the time, but one day your mom suddenly tears it up - that awkward feeling must be quite obvious.

"Finn?"

Riveria gestured to the regimental commander.

"Well, if this is true, then it is definitely a very important piece of information - Mr. Su Mo, can you be sure?"

Finn's boyish cheeks were full of earnestness and seriousness.

"One hundred percent."

Su Mo nodded.

"Now we have to move forward, if this kind of thing continues to spread to the upper echelons.......

Finn didn't finish his sentence, but all the members tensed their nerves at the same time.

If a situation like this really continues to affect the upper levels, then there is only one outcome.

――Urban Olarie's entire operating system centered on the adventures of adventurers will be completely destroyed! (To be continued.) )
