Emiya Shirou doesn't want to work overtime

The dragon horde that surged into the past, and the dragon flames that fired their cannons, were all blocked by Lefia's defensive magic and by Tiona and Tione.

Rivera's eyes were incredibly firm; she wasn't worried at all that those terrifying attacks would hit her.

I'm afraid that even if those attacks hit, she would still finish the incantation with unwavering determination the moment she is hit.

"To draw the final curtain on the great war, burning everything to ashes, Surtr's sword—my name is Alfre."

At the very moment Riveria finished chanting, flames rose from beneath the dragons.

It was an unimaginable heat, a flame capable of burning everything.

The moment Riveria finished her incantation, no dragon could escape its fate of annihilation.

In the blink of an eye, the remaining half of the dragons were completely consumed by the flames.

The swarm of insects seemed to realize that Shirou Emiya and his group were not to be trifled with, so they quickly turned around and headed towards the passage leading to the 59th floor at top speed.

The entire 58th floor quickly fell into a deathly silence.

This is the power of the so-called strongest mage in the city.

"Ais!!!!"

Lefia, her face filled with excitement, gripped her wand tightly and ran towards Ais.

"Are you OK!"

She looked at Ais, who was unharmed, with great concern.

Ais shook her head somewhat blankly, indicating that she was fine.

However, those around her seemed to have long been used to Lefia's attitude.

After all, Ais is the person that Levi admires.

"It looks like all the monsters on the 58th floor have been cleared out!"

Finn looked at the ground around him, now only covered in magic crystals, and with a relieved expression, looked at Shirou Emiya, who was wearing armor.

"Thankfully, you're alright too!"

After all, even if Shirou Emiya was capable of withstanding the barrage of fire alone, Finn would still be worried.

After only three days together, Shirou Emiya and the Loki Familia had already become people he could entrust his life to.

Finn didn't understand why he could make such a judgment about someone he had only known for three days.

But seeing that Shirou Emiya hadn't encountered any problems, Finn breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'm fine, but next up should be the 59th floor, which you haven't reached yet—"

Emiya Shirou, having removed his armor, responded to Finn and turned to look at the passage leading to the 59th floor.

The countless swarms of insects all surged toward the 59th floor.

"These new monsters are coming from even deeper floors? No wonder they're so much harder to deal with than the usual ones—"

Finn watched the surging swarm of insects, lost in thought, while the stinging pain in his right thumb told him that they were about to encounter something terrible.

Chapter 486 The Advantages of Archers

"Floor 59, we're almost there!"

After resting for a while, Fiona looked at the passage leading to the 59th floor and murmured to herself.

The people around him also looked towards the 59th floor and smiled.

Reaching areas that have not yet been reached will prove that the Loki Familia is indeed one of the strongest Familias in Orario.

After all, only Zeus and Hera's retinue, who had climbed to the top, had ever reached that floor.

Entering that floor means that the Loki Familia has finally caught up with the once-renowned strongest Familia in the exploration of the dungeons.

This is undoubtedly an honor for the Loki Familia.

It was an unparalleled honor not only for Loki's Familia, but for everyone who participated in this expedition, even those who were not part of the teams that conquered deeper levels.

Perhaps because of Shirou Emiya's involvement, they made it from the 51st floor to the 58th floor with almost no one getting injured, and their physical strength and magical energy were not greatly depleted.

I basically cleared the 58th floor at full strength.

If we don't seize this opportunity, we might not be able to reach the 58th floor so easily next time.

Shirou Emiya is not a member of the Loki Familia, and it's impossible for him to have the time to explore deeper places with the Loki Familia on every expedition.

Moreover, it's still quite early in terms of time. If they rush back now, they should be able to barely manage to have lunch on the 50th floor.

Therefore, Finn has no reason to give up exploring the 59th floor.

Moreover, everyone present was looking at the passage leading to the 59th floor with an eager attitude.

Even Shirou Emiya was very interested in the exploration to come.

"According to the records left by Zeus's Familia, the terrain of the 59th floor is no longer a labyrinth like the Dragon Pot, but a glacial area with extremely low temperatures."

Finn stood at the entrance of the passage, muttering to himself.

"So, without equipment to withstand the extreme cold, our expedition has to come to a standstill here?"

Upon hearing Finn's words, Tiona responded with some distress.

After all, they had already reached the 58th floor, but because they lacked equipment to withstand the extreme cold, they were unable to explore the 59th floor and thus could not obtain such glory. They could only return and wait for the next expedition. Anyone would feel regretful.

"No, I had Lord carry fire-element-protected armor."

As he spoke, Finn looked in the direction of Lord behind him.

He slowly lowered the huge backpack from his back and placed the equipment on the ground.

As the leader of the group, and with the goal of exploring the 59th floor, how could he not have considered the possible scenarios?

"However, we don't need to wear these fire-element-protected armors for now."

Just as Tiona was about to pick up a piece to put on, Finn told them not to put it on yet.

"Hey! Why?"

Tiona's face was full of confusion.

“We’re about to reach the 59th floor, but we don’t feel cold at all. Don’t you find that strange?”

"If the information from Zeus's Familia is true, and the 59th floor is indeed an icy region, shouldn't we be able to feel the cold right now?"

“Indeed, as the captain said, even if the floors above are filled with fire-breathing dragons, if the 59th floor is really an icy region, we shouldn’t feel the cold at all.”

Grace also chimed in, agreeing with Finn's statement.

"What will be revealed to the outside world next is something even the gods have never seen before—the [Unknown]!"

With a flash of dazzling light, the group emerged from the passage and arrived at the 59th floor, a place they had never reached before.

This is another equally enormous cavern.

It is more magnificent in scale than the 58 floors directly above, and the space is also more spacious.

Inside the enormous cave, a lush green forest almost filled the entire space, and the ground resembled a verdant grassland dotted with colorful wildflowers, making the environment undeniably beautiful.

At the edge of this enclosed cave, vines hang from the surrounding rock walls, forming a green facade.

Above, countless flower buds of all sizes hang down, like silkworm cocoons, giving one the illusion that something is being nurtured inside.

"It's practically like a 24-layer flowerpot."

Lefia, gripping her wand tightly, stared blankly at the vibrant scene unfolding before her, uttering a dazed sound.

"I'd say they're exactly the same!"

Bert, walking ahead of Lefia, was also looking around and making sarcastic remarks.

"The information about Zeus's Familia seems to be reversed; this feels like a tropical rainforest!"

Feeling the humid heat around him, Grace couldn't help but complain.

"Stay alert, and move forward!"

Finn gave this order after only a brief glance.

After all, looking around now, there was no trace of monsters on the entire 59th floor.

"Wait a minute, there seems to be something in the forest!"

Emiya Shirou called out to Finn, squinting as if he had seen what was happening in the forest.

"Those larval-like monsters are swarming toward some kind of vegetation!"

"vegetation?"

Riveria also frowned. If we're talking about vegetation, this layer is basically completely covered by vegetation.

No one doubted what Shirou Emiya said. After all, as an archer, besides archery skills, the most outstanding thing is eyesight.

Although I was quite surprised when Shirou Emiya first told me that his best skill was archery.

But Loki, finding it amusing, took the apple directly to the top of the Tower of Babel.

After all, as the strongest Familia in Orario, Loki herself had her own territory inside the Tower of Babel. However, she did not like the atmosphere of the Tower of Babel, so she set up her Familia base in Orario.

Moreover, as a god, Loki could travel to the Tower of Babel at any time.

Then they witnessed an incredibly shocking scene.

Shirou Emiya, almost at the edge of Orario, pierced through the apple that Loki had thrown from the sky with a single sword strike.

At that time, apart from Finn, Riveria, and other busy adventurers, almost all members of the Loki Familia witnessed this scene at the foot of the Tower of Babel.

Ais then caught the apple that had fallen and been torn in half.

After all, throwing someone from such a tall tower could easily cause unnecessary harm.

"Are you the floor owner?"

"I don't know, but it's very likely that all the monsters rushed toward that plant and turned into magic crystals, which were then absorbed by it."

With his eyes narrowed, Shirou Emiya described the information with remarkable precision.
