Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

Finn also witnessed firsthand what kind of monster surge Shirou Emiya had described.

He stated that since the dungeon could increase the number of monsters several times over if it targeted you, it could naturally double the number of monsters if it targeted any adventurer.

So, what happens when they explore deeper and the monsters suddenly multiply several times over, and they are unprepared?

The team will suffer huge casualties.

Of course, if Shirou Emiya joins, the number of monsters will surge, making dungeon exploration even more difficult.

However, it also allows them to face more unexpected situations.

As the team leader, he needs to be responsible for his team members, but he cannot take everything into account.

I can only do my best to consider everything I can.

It's not necessarily a good thing for Finn to understand this early on.

They are adventurers; they should be wary of dungeons, not fearful or dreadful of them.

Moreover, just because the number of monsters in the dungeons has increased several times, does that mean they will stop exploring the dungeons?

This is impossible.

The initial purpose of building the Tower of Babel and exploring the underground cities was to enable the creatures of this world to live better.

No matter how difficult the dungeon becomes, they will continue to explore it.

These three days were not only for the Loki Familia's adventurers and Shirou Emiya to get to know each other better, but also for a reorganization, with a new plan for supplies, weapons, and other items.

They also revised a list of things that LV3 and LV4 adventurers who joined in to protect the safety of the supporters should pay attention to.

Meanwhile, Shirou Emiya and some members of Loki's Familia went to explore the dungeon together, and the feedback he gave to Finn was all positive.

It could even be described as comfortable.

Finn also took half a day to explore the dungeon with Shirou Emiya.

At first, he thought that Shirou Emiya was like Ais, Bert, and Tiona, the type who would fight monsters head-on and be responsible for drawing away most of the monsters' aggro.

As a result, Shirou Emiya not only possesses exceptional abilities, but also the remote support capabilities that his team needs.

Emiya Shirou's long-range support capabilities are even top-tier.

Although the number of monsters has increased, with Shirou Emiya's support, Tiona says she can completely ignore defense and focus solely on dealing massive damage.

Thanks to Shirou Emiya's support, he was able to save himself a lot of time observing his surroundings.

Even if a monster suddenly emerges from the wall and launches a sneak attack on her, Shirou Emiya is able to react quickly, or simply defeat the monster.

Either she uses precise marksmanship to prevent the monsters from hitting Tiona, allowing her to violently deal with the monsters in front of her before dealing with the others behind her.

Finn couldn't help but admire Emiya Shirou from the bottom of his heart.

Loki's Familia does have ranged support, but their ranged support consists of mages. Compared to ranged support like that from Shirou Emiya, it's better for Emiya and his group to buy time to cast spells and instantly wipe out all the monsters in the area.

It can be said that if it weren't for the monsters increasing in number several times over...

Finn was very confident that he could overcome the levels that Zeus and the Michal clan had not been able to reach.

Shirou Emiya arrived at the Loki Familia's base early on these three days, and bumped into Ais, who was training early in the morning.

The two then began practicing in the courtyard every morning.

Having received training in various sword techniques, Shirou Emiya is naturally qualified to instruct Ais.

Although Shirou Emiya has only been practicing swordsmanship for a year, Ais has been practicing since she was a child.

However, the swordsmanship skills that Shirou Emiya acquired were the result of decades, or even longer, of research and development by those people.

Shirou Emiya relentlessly pushed himself to the limit in such a short period of time, forcing him to train intensely to understand the subject.

As a result, Shirou Emiya has a certain level of understanding of swordsmanship.

Although he was far from being a true master swordsman, he was still able to guide Ais.

If we were to determine the outcome of a match between Emiya Shirou and Sasaki Kojiro solely based on swordsmanship, Emiya Shirou would undoubtedly lose.

Under Shirou Emiya's guidance for the past three days, Ais's stats have been rising rapidly.

Time flew by, and while Shirou Emiya and Ais were still sparring, Finn got up early and waited at the entrance of the dungeon for the adventurers to gather.

As the leader of the organization, he naturally had to be the first to arrive at the entrance of the underground city.

Chapter 471 Our Only Goal—Floor 59 (Edited)

With a gentle yet bright light, sunlight streamed down from the distant sky toward the white-walled giant tower in the heart of the city.

The entire area around the Tower of Babel was illuminated.

In front of the Tower of Babel, a group of fully armed people were gathered.

Some of the other adventurers around looked at the group with envy.

Some people stood aside, watching the crowd inside and talking to the people around them.

Some just passed by in a hurry, glanced at it briefly, and then headed straight for the underground city.

At the very front of the group, a flag with a clown design was fluttering in the wind.

The group gathered under a flag with a clown design.

As the initiators, the first-level adventurers of the Loki Familia stood at the very front of the entire group.

Ais, Tiona, Tione, Finn, Riveria, Bert, and Grace stood at the very front of the group, majestically receiving the admiring gazes of the adventurers around them.

They were already used to the adventurers looking at them with that kind of expression.

Becoming a Level 1 Adventurer and exploring the deeper levels of dungeons is the lifelong dream of many adventurers.

If we remove those practical factors, who wouldn't want to strive for their ideals?

Although Shirou Emiya was a member of the strategy team, he did not stand with them.

The expedition was initiated and led by the Loki Familia, although Shirou Emiya, like them, participated in conquering deeper levels of the dungeon.

However, he was not a member of Loki's Familia, and therefore could not possibly be in the position of the initiator.

So Shirou Emiya stood at the front of the expedition team alongside Lefia, an orange-haired elf girl who was expected to be Rivilia's successor and a second-level adventurer.

"Emiya-senpai, aren't you nervous?"

Lefia looked at the imposing crowd in front of her with a mixture of excitement and confusion in her eyes.

This was the first time she had participated in this expedition as an adventurer rather than a supporter.

Normally, she would reach deeper areas under the protection of those adventurers.

Times have changed, and now it is her turn to protect those who support her.

She has only recently reached LV4, and as a mage, she rarely ventures into dungeons alone.

When facing monsters, there is a significant gap between them and those level one adventurers, both in terms of experience and mindset.

She still harbors a fear of the monsters in the dungeon.

"Isn't this something you have to go through to become an adventurer?"

Emiya Shirou comforted her, saying that no matter how scared she was, since she had chosen to become an adventurer, these difficulties were things she had to overcome.

Those who stand at the forefront, aren't they treated this way because they overcame those things?

Of course, he himself was the same, having experienced countless hardships along the way.

In such expeditions, these first-level adventurers are undoubtedly the main protagonists.

Although the monsters after the 37th floor are all level 4, it is not something that level 4 adventurers can easily explore.

Even the 37th floor is a difficult challenge for a level 4 adventurer.

Level 4 monsters are not as easy to kill as Level 3 monsters. In a one-on-one situation, the adventurer will definitely win.

However, in dungeons, there are almost never one-on-one situations with monsters; it's always one adventurer facing hundreds or more monsters.

Because the monster-killing speed is reduced, it is extremely easy to get surrounded and eventually die.

"Moreover, you are expected by them to become Miss Riveria's successor, so you naturally have the potential to become like them."

"If only it could be like that, I wouldn't have to look up to Miss Ais from behind, but instead—"

Lefia seemed to have entered some kind of fantasy state, and her face turned slightly red.

Emiya Shirou also stopped paying attention to Lefia, who was lost in her own thoughts.

because----

"Attention everyone!"

A loud voice came from Finn, who looked quite petite.

The surrounding noise quickly quieted down after Finn's shout.

Everyone's spirits were lifted, and they looked ahead.

Beneath the banner of the Loki Familia, Finn, Riveria, and Grace stood in a line, looking down at everyone below.

They are the three leaders of the Loki Familia.

Responsible for managing all matters, big and small, within the entire Loki Familia.

He was also responsible for each of Loki's expeditions.

Although everyone is an adventurer from a different clan.

But when facing the vicious underground city, discipline and attitude are essential.

The serious expressions of Finn and his two companions immediately made everyone feel tense, and their bodies involuntarily tensed up.

"From this moment forward, we, the Loki Familia, will embark on an expedition!"

Finn stood between Riveria and Grace, and began his speech as the leader of the Familia.

This is a speech given before the expedition. It not only boosts morale but also helps everyone quickly unite and get into the mindset to enter the dungeon.

"This is not our first expedition, nor will it be our last. We will split into three groups and advance toward the dungeon in three hours. I will lead the first group, Riveria will lead the second group, and Grace will lead the third group."
