Chapter 241 Expedition, Heading to the Fifty-Ninth Floor

Liang Yue doesn't usually drink alcohol, but he drank a little with everyone because the atmosphere was right.

Lily was in a huge predicament, as she was a dwarf and had a high alcohol tolerance.

Moreover, she resisted Somo's wine through sheer willpower.

Now she has a strong aversion to alcohol, and after seeing everyone drinking happily, she ran to Liang Yue for help.

"Liang Yue, I don't want to drink!"

"It depends on your mood. If you don't want to drink, then don't. Everyone just wants to vent their emotions through alcohol."

Liang Yue doesn't have much aversion to alcohol; he just doesn't usually drink it.

Moreover, he understood those adventurers who enjoyed drinking.

I get up at dawn and then head to the dungeon to fight desperately until sunset.

After a long day of tension and sweating, all I need to do after a shower is find a bar to relax and have a drink.

Whether they are upper-level adventurers who are content with the status quo or deep-level adventurers who fight desperately.

Taverns were popular places for them to unwind and relax, and they didn't know whether death or tomorrow would come first.

At this victory celebration banquet, Liang Yue took the opportunity to reconnect with the adventurers after a long time.

Aside from burying himself in cultivation and venturing into the dungeon, this banquet also allowed him to relax his tense mind to some extent.

The banquet lasted for a long time. When Liang Yue felt a headache coming on, he bid farewell to everyone and led Lily and the goddess back to the clan's residence.

Even so, is it possible that no one around dares to make a move?
Liang Yue even pretended to be drunk.

It seems that we can only deal with these people who are targeting Chun Ji by taking a gradual approach.

While Hestia was drunk, Seele took the initiative to put her arm around Liang Yue.

"Liang Yue, you can just rely on me like this."

"Let go of Liang Yue. Lily can support Liang Yue too."

"Shameless! Just let me carry Liang Yue on my back!"

Even though Liang Yue was really dizzy, these girls still didn't give up their right to take care of him.

Late at night, Liang Yue was extremely thirsty. He picked up the water bottle from the cabinet next to him and drank it all in one gulp.

Taking advantage of everyone's drunkenness, he sneaked into Seele's room.

Xi'er looked at Liang Yue with surprise and joy, "Liang Yue, you're here?"

Liang Yue moved closer and then covered Xi'er's mouth, his voice very soft, "Shh, don't make a sound..."

…………

At the Hearth Pavilion, Liang Yue and her companions are about to depart. Luluni, an orc from Hermes, arrives to pay a visit.

Ais left the room and took a crystal necklace and a palm-sized package from Luluni.

She looked at the other person with a questioning gaze, "What is this?"

"The package contains rations, the kind I usually eat when I'm in the dungeon. They taste good, are portable, and keep me full!"

And this necklace, someone entrusted me to give it to you. It's covered by a black cloak, so I can't see the face inside.

It's supposed to be worn on the 59th floor, but whether you wear it or not is up to you.

Ais packed up her things and then returned to her room to check the supplies with Liang Yue and the others.

Before setting off, everyone must prepare the necessary supplies for the expedition and check them before leaving the clan's settlement.

After everyone had finished getting ready, Liang Yue looked at them and said, "Let's go and meet up with the Loki Familia!"

"Yes!"

Inside the streets of Daedalus, Loki and some members of Hephaestus's retinue had all arrived.

Finn approached Liang Yue and extended his right hand: "It's a pleasure to work with you, Sword Saint Liang Yue."

"It's been a pleasure working together. Shall we embark on this expedition together?"

Finn nodded. "Then let's set off together to the unexplored territory—the fifty-ninth floor!"

Liang Yue led everyone into the building where the gate to the man-made maze was located.

Because this was an entrance to a man-made maze, when the streets of Daedalus were rebuilt, he disguised these entrances by building some houses or warehouses.

The door opened, and everyone proceeded one by one through the passages of the man-made maze.

Chun looked around excitedly, "This is a man-made maze! What an interesting design!"

"If you like, you can come and play after we finish our expedition."

Chun laughed excitedly, "Hahaha, that's fantastic!"

In less than half a day, Liang Yue and the others had arrived at the eighteenth floor of the underground city.

After exiting the artificial maze, Liang Yue and the others arrived at the nineteenth floor in almost no time.

The artisans of Hephaestus's family were placed in the very center of the procession.

Afterwards, Liang Yue and the others stayed at the front of the group to clear the way.

After hearing Liang Yue and the others' requests, Finn began to cooperate with the expedition.

Liang Yue directly ordered them to stand at the forefront, making them responsible for the pressure at the front.

Without affecting the overall pace of progress, we should squeeze out as much of their potential as possible.

After reaching the deeper levels, Haruhime began to elevate the ranks of the characters.

This was the first time Finn and the others had witnessed this power firsthand. "Is this what level advancement is?"

After experiencing this power firsthand, I realized that it was indeed excessively rare!

This is practically a strategic weapon!

Chunji shyly hid behind Liang Yue, her fluffy tail nervously brushing against Liang Yue's palm.

Liang Yue rubbed Chun Ji's head. "Yes, that's why I want to train and push them as much as possible during this expedition."

Only by being strong enough can one achieve security.

They maintained this rhythm until the pressure increased, and even Lv5 monsters began to appear.

Liang Yue then ordered the second team to be put behind and arranged for them to undergo actual combat training.

A group of girls temporarily boosted to Lv4 have a high chance of defeating a Lv5 if they put in the effort.

As for the other monsters, they were all killed by Liang Yue.

Even after reaching the fiftieth floor of the dungeon, Loki's retinue still had no suitable opportunity to make a move.

Bert, the fierce wolf, approached with a look of dissatisfaction, "Liang Yue, you're really outrageous."

Are you just focused on having your second team and yourself kill monsters?

Liang Yue shrugged, "Wouldn't it be better to save your energy? I have a feeling that the difficulty of the 59th floor will skyrocket to an absurd level."

Therefore, until then, I do not want you to engage in combat as long as the monster does not get close.

During this expedition, Liang Yue and her team dealt with over 90% of the monsters.

Finn walked over and pressed Bert down. "Bert, don't be so impatient."

Liang Yue's words make a lot of sense; conserving energy is extremely important! No one knows just how formidable the enemies ahead will be!

Liang Yue looked at everyone and said, "So, shall we rest here for now? We'll discuss tactics together at this time tomorrow, and then set off again?"

"it is good!"

Despite Liang Yue's support, Cassandra and the others were still injured during this expedition.

However, both Ryu and Cassandra possess healing magic, so there's no worry about healing issues.

Moreover, they have ample medical and living supplies, so the pressure they're under so far is naturally much less. Compared to Cassandra, Ryu's role is more complex and versatile; she can truly be described as a jack-of-all-trades.

Healing, physical damage output, magical firepower, etc., all come from the new magic inherited magic (Starry Memory) that Ryu has mastered.

She can use all the magic of every former member of her familia, such as the "wide-area healing magic" needed by healers.

He had seen the healing magic used by Haici on the battlefield before, and he had been extremely envious at that time.

And now, Ryu has also mastered this power! This is wonderful.

Inside the base, the support staff began their respective tasks.

For example, repairing defensive facilities, maintaining equipment, and preparing food.

After finishing his food, Liang Yue immediately fell into a deep sleep. The other members of the Hestia Familia's second squad did the same.

Afterwards, the Hestia Familia and the second squad of the Loki Familia will hold their ground here.

If things get really dangerous, Lily and the others, along with Loki's craftsmen, will use the magic sword to fight back.

With enough recovery potions, they should be able to hold out until Liang Yue and the others return.

The next day, the group, having rested, met again.

Finn took two steps forward. "Next up are the team members heading to the fifty-first floor."

I, Riveria, Grace, Bert, Tione, Tiona, Rurion, Ais, Liang Yue, and Sanjou Haruhime.

Their supporters were Lefia and Raul, while Tsubaki accompanied them as a blacksmith.

Originally, Liang Yue was supposed to be in charge this time, but she only wanted to gain more experience and didn't want to be in charge.

So he gave up the opportunity.

After the personnel list was finalized, Chun took out a bunch of decent weapons.

"The series' Roland, indestructible weapon, possesses the attack power of a second-level weapon."

As for the armor, its defensive capabilities are unparalleled, making it the top-tier item.

Due to time constraints, this is the best we can do for now.

Liang Yue saw Chun open her large pack, inside which were two heavy shields, a huge battle axe, a two-handed double-edged greatsword, a spear, and so on.

Liang Yue turned to Ais and the others, "We have better equipment here, so there's no need to share it with us."

Chun curiously examined Liang Yue's spine suit. "Impressive. You Hestia Familia people are really rich!"

Everyone has at least one top-tier weapon, and the quality of their armor is also very high.

Needless to say, Finn is the leader of the Loki Familia, with very reliable combat skills and outstanding command abilities.

Riveria, born into the elven royal family, possesses magic in three categories: attack, recovery, and defense, with three tiers of magic in each category.

She can use a total of nine spells and link them together through incantations, combining incantations of three levels: super short, short, and long. This transforms the original spell incantation into a super long one, altering its effects and increasing its power.

This is also the origin of the name Riveria Nine Demon Princesses.

Grace, a dwarf of Loki's Familia.

Raul, Lv4, was recognized by Finn as an elite member of the clan.

Tione and Tiona are both level 6 Amazons and are the main force of Loki's Familia.

Tiony is skilled with dual short swords, while Tiona is skilled with two heavy weapons.

Liang Yue and her group set off, stopping at the entrance to the fifty-first floor.

Riveria raised her staff and began casting defensive magic on everyone, including herself.

A massive green magic circle appeared on the ground and then enveloped everyone.

"Spring breeze turns the gauze green!"

As Rivera finished chanting, a green light enveloped everyone present.

It was as if green threads grew from the ground and then wrapped around everyone's entire bodies.

"I have cast a defensive spell on you all. The effect will last for a while, but please do not rely on it too much."

"Break through to the fifty-first floor in one go! Ignore the small monsters! Watch out for the new type of monsters you encountered earlier!"

Everyone, get ready for battle! Let's go!

Liang Yue took the lead and rushed into the cave entrance in front of her. The others followed in one after another.

Haruhime was protected by Tsubaki and Ryu, while Ais came to Liangyue's side.

Liang Yue glanced at Ais, "Don't you dare rush out, I'll attack from a distance!"

"it is good!"

Ais had no other intentions but to observe Liang Yue up close. If possible, she wanted to learn Liang Yue's Reverse Ghost Sword Technique from a distance.

Loki's retinue was very lively, with the Amazon sisters teasing each other.

Bert the wolf had more than ten magic swords attached to his legs, two indestructible swords at his waist, and a pair of silver boots on his feet.

As for the two supporters, they were carrying a lot of supplies. However, given their level, they weren't too heavy to carry.

The fifty-first floor of the underground city.

The nearby caves suddenly drop in height, to less than 100 meters.

The walls were made entirely of various flat stones, with a large number of stone pillars supporting the ceiling and floor.

A herd of black rhinos appeared.

Above Liang Yue's head, the Selfless Sword Domain unfolded, from which countless indestructible weapons flew out, instantly slaying all the black rhinoceroses.

Lefia and Raul quickly picked up the magic stones from behind, and before long, Liang Yue and the others had arrived at the exit of the fifty-first floor.

Finn turned to Liang Yue and said, "Everyone, we can't stop for even a moment on the 52nd floor."

Deeper levels will be bombarded by monsters, so you absolutely cannot stop.

The power of this shelling was enough to penetrate six stories!

Liang Yue and the others nodded, and the group resumed their work.

After reaching the 52nd floor, the building's height exceeded 100 meters, and the brightness decreased again.

Liang Yue sensed a great deal of malice, such as from the shadows behind her and from the ground beneath their feet!

"Turn left!"

Liang Yue suddenly spoke up, and the entire squad immediately began to dodge.

Just a second after Liang Yue's voice fell, a high-temperature column of fire, more than ten meters in diameter, erupted from the floor to the ceiling.

Leading the group forward, he glanced back at the large hole.

A large hole appeared in the floor, and the burned edges had turned into scorching lava.

Liang Yue extended his senses to the maximum, and he could sense that there was a high-temperature heat source approaching from underground.

"Follow my movements closely, don't hesitate!"

Before setting off, Liang Yue had already memorized the maps of the lower levels. So now she was completely dodging and moving forward.

Liang Yue looked up at the high place diagonally in front of her, and then a sharp blade flew out from the blade of the Wuwo Sword.

A streak of light ripped through the darkness, blasting the spider monster hanging on the stone wall into pieces.

The light then dissipated and returned to his sword domain.

A column of intense heat reappeared underground, blasting a large hole in the building.

Then several more pillars of fire appeared on the ground, completely engulfing Liang Yue...
