“That will do,” Bell nodded happily, but Lily beside her said quietly, “It’s a pity that in the Familia, everyone worships the sacred wine, not Soma, so this oath is useless.”
“Looks like there’s no hope,” Senju said. After hearing Lily’s explanation, he realized that the three of them were fooling laymen. If no one had pointed it out, Bell would probably have happily let them go. “But divine wine, let’s try this.”
As she spoke, Senju took out milk and forced it down the throats of the three. The three, who had been struggling, suddenly stopped, their faces filled with extreme panic. "What's wrong with me?! What happened?!"
"Aaaaaah!" Senju threw the three of them to the ground, where they screamed in agony, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, why did I do such a thing, ahaaah!"
"Lord Star God, what have you done?" Bell asked in surprise, while Lily beside him was stunned. "The bewitching power of the divine wine has been dispelled!"
However, after the three of them roared for a while, they all fainted. Senju, Bell, and Lily looked at each other and were a little dumbfounded.
Looking at the three of them, Senju seemed to see a reflection of himself. "Fine, I'll send them out of Orario and dump them in some remote place."
“Yes, that’s for the best,” Bell nodded. Lily, who was standing next to him, was in a daze, but seeing that Senju was about to carry the three of them away, she quickly called out, “Wait, what is that white liquid? Why can it break the spell of the divine wine?”
“That’s milk,” Senju said, dragging them a few steps before suddenly remembering something. He turned to the girl who was still in a daze behind him and said, “Hey, Lily, don’t you want the vault key anymore? If not, I’ll take it.”
“Yes, of course I want it,” Lily shouted, running over to the group and starting to search. After a while, she found a key. “This is it, but the magic sword is gone.”
"Oh, that's a magic sword. I thought it was magic. Well then, I'll send them away," said Thousand Hands, as he created three teleportation crystals. This was the place he had seen during the flight test, more than a thousand miles away from here.
After carefully tossing the teleportation crystal onto them, they vanished. Bell, standing nearby, seemed to understand. "Lord Star God, could this be the teleportation crystal?"
"That's right, they've already gone thousands of miles away," Senju said calmly, his emotions a mix of joy at saving lives and heartache at losing money. Come to think of it, this could have been worth a lot of money if sold to someone else.
By the way, sell the teleportation crystals to Loki's Familia, and from now on, call all the items you produce 'pay-to-win items'. I think Loki will love that.
Lily, who was standing next to him, didn't quite understand, but she didn't ask. Just then, Bell touched his arm and suddenly screamed, "Ah, my gauntlet is gone!"
"Was it the one Eina gave you?" Senju asked from the side. Bell nodded with tears in her eyes. "It must have fallen to the tenth floor. I need to go look for it."
"Go find him quickly, but be careful," Senju said as she watched Bell run off. Lily, carrying a huge backpack, caught up with him. "Wait, Lord Bell!"
After watching the two leave, Senju felt he had to get down to business. After searching for a while, he found a bloodstain in a nearby cave with several pieces of bone in the middle, which looked quite horrifying.
Suppressing her nausea, Senju threw the diamonds and wood-elemental material over, then activated her skill. A moment later, a bewildered white-clad adventurer appeared there.
Chapter 423 The Expedition Prepared for Upgrading
Thousand Hands didn't control him, but just watched his performance. When he appeared, a killer ant was also born around him. The bewildered adventurer immediately tried to draw the weapon on his back, but then he found that his weapon had already broken to the side.
What followed was rather gruesome. The adventurer, who had been quite confident in his ability to fight the monster, found himself completely powerless when he tried to move, like a...
Ordinary people were directly pinned down and torn apart by the monster.
"Ah!!!" A terrified scream came from inside. Senju tried to break the spell from the outside, but then he realized that he had no way to break the spell.
However, the screams stopped quickly. When Senju went inside, he found that the human body made of wood release had been reduced to fragments and was now slowly disappearing.
"Well, it seems it's different from what I imagined," Senju said helplessly, looking at the mess. He casually killed the monster. He knew from the experiment that the people here mainly relied on divine grace to enhance their strength. Without it, they would just be small fry.
After leaving the dungeon, Senju went to the guild to check the quests she had posted. When she met Misha, she handed Senju a stack of documents that recorded the discoveries made by various clans when they ventured into the dungeon. Although the time intervals were quite long and there were some errors, these documents were still important information and had significant reference value for in-depth exploration.
When Senju returned home with the materials, she found no one there, only a note on the living room table that read, "We went out to play, ^O^".
Thousand Hands shook his head helplessly, sat on the sofa, and began to look at the materials. The materials mentioned things to pay attention to for each floor, such as the terrain map of each floor, the composition of monsters, recommendations for weapons and armor, and suitable team composition.
However, Thousand Hands didn't care about any of that. After watching for a while, he set his sights on the two-headed dragon on the 27th floor. He figured that if he could defeat it, he could level up.
As Senju ate while looking at the information about the two-headed dragon, there was a knock on the door.
After Senju opened the door, he found Naveltri and team member A standing outside. After the two came in, they reported to Senju on the unusual activities of the Ishtar Familia in the past few days.
Their investigation revealed that several attacks had occurred in the entertainment district in recent days, especially yesterday's battle, in which the leader of the Ishtar Familia, "Man Killer" Frini, and executive "Rie" Aisha went missing, causing significant problems for the entire Familia's operations.
Rumors are circulating that Frini has kidnapped Aisha, creating a tense atmosphere in the entertainment district. Last night, most of the shops were closed.
After hearing the information from the two men, Senju felt like laughing. He decided to put on a show for the Ishtar Familia, but he still told them what had happened to reassure them and that they didn't need to worry about retaliation.
After listening to Senju's words, the two nodded. Then, Senju explained the situation at the internet cafe, saying that if there were any problems, they could go to 'Sasuke' there to resolve them, and team members who didn't want to fight could work there.
The three discussed for a while, and Qian Shou learned that they had bought a house on North Street and were now slowly exploring the underground city, having recently reached the twelfth floor.
After thinking for a moment, Qian Shou made a copy of the information he had and asked them to take it back and study it to avoid any problems.
However, at this moment, William and Ctholly came out of the basement. William chatted with Naveltri for a while before the other two left.
“It seems Navel has adapted very quickly,” William said with some admiration as he sat there. “Before, we had to run around everywhere to kill monsters, and adventurers and heroes would only come out when a monster hurt someone. Now it’s completely the other way around.”
“Hmm,” Senju nodded and handed him the documents. “There are also many dangerous monsters in the dungeon, but they can’t escape.”
“If these monsters appeared on the surface,” Senju said, shaking his head, “that’s probably why adventurers keep killing monsters in the dungeons.”
“That should be it,” William nodded, while Chtholly, standing beside him, looked curiously at the unfamiliar information. “Senju, what are these?”
“Oh, this is information about the Deep. The Loki Familia invited our clan to conduct a Deep exploration, so I gathered some information,” Senju told the two about the Loki Familia’s expedition.
“I see,” Chtholly nodded. “But who will join? The Deep Ones seem dangerous, and no one seems to have any particular need for them.”
“Well, although there’s not much of a need, the main purpose this time is to upgrade. Nephren, Noft, and Nigolan should also be upgraded to LV6,” Senju told the two about Ais’s upgrade. “And I will also be joining this time. If a suitable target comes up, they can be sent to help at any time.”
“In that case, a fight is indeed necessary,” the two understood the importance of strength and wanted to take it a step further.
After discussing it for a while, the three decided that William would accompany them for the time being, while the others would wait in the space. However, the two of them would still go back to pass on the news to everyone and listen to their suggestions.
After seeing the two off, Senju was about to go to sleep. Although there was the sound of a movie playing around her, it didn't disturb her sleep. However, there was another knock on the door.
When Senju opened the door, he saw Bell and Hestia. Bell thanked Senju for her help, even though everything was already resolved when Senju arrived.
Hestia, after hearing about Bell's experience that day, came to apologize to Senju. The "lock" technique she used that morning was widely known among the gods, but Hestia didn't know it at all and had to ask Mih to find out. She then used it to deceive Senju, and now she felt a little embarrassed, so she came to his door with an IOU.
“It’s okay, this technology is very useful to me,”
Thousand Hands quickly declined the IOU Hestia offered, saying, "Besides, the tavern didn't mind, so I don't need it."
“That won’t do. After all, it consumed one of your magic books, so it has to be returned,” Hestia said proudly, then lowered her voice. “Although I’m currently paying someone back, I’ll pay them back later.”
“Alright, but since my grimoire is just a replica, I can reduce the debt by half or exchange it for a new grimoire,” Senju thought for a moment and then took out a grimoire for Hestia to choose from.
After hesitating between the debt and the grimoire for a while, Hestia said, "I'll choose the grimoire. I hope it can enhance Bell's magic, just as you said."
"No problem, thank you for your patronage. One hundred million falies for ten magic books!" Thousand Hands gave a thumbs up, and Hestia immediately collapsed, but in the end, she still went home with Bell, tears in her eyes, clutching the magic books.
When they woke up in the morning, Senju and William went to Loki's Familia to discuss the expedition and, incidentally, to promote their self-produced 'pay-to-win items'.
The two strolled leisurely toward the Twilight Pavilion, stopping by a movie theater and an internet cafe along the way. By the time they arrived at their destination, it was already eight or nine o'clock.
To Thousand Hands' surprise, another golden-haired god also came to visit Loki. After looking at him curiously, the two went inside together.
Chapter 424 This is just a coincidence
After Loki's introduction, Thousand Hands learned that the other party was Dionysus, and the black-haired elves following behind him were his kin.
After the introductions, the three gods sat down to talk. Loki first looked at Thousand Hands and asked, "How's the expedition going? Have you decided on the candidates yet?"
"Well, we've confirmed two for now, and one of them is him," Senji pointed to William behind him. "William, the strongest in our clan."
“I see, it was him,” Loki also remembered William. “With William’s addition, this expedition might be able to break through to the sixtieth floor.”
“Yes, that’s what I was thinking too. But I also brought a little gadget with me this time, I’m sure you’ll like it,” Thousand Hands smiled at Loki. “Each one will only cost one hundred million Faris.”
"What a joke! You already emptied our expedition's coffers last time, and now you're coming here to sell your money again," Loki said, covering his ears and shaking his head.
"I wonder what kind of item it is, that it costs a hundred million fali?" Dionysus asked with a smile. Senju thought for a moment and decided to use it as a product demonstration, so he took out a specially made teleportation crystal. "This is it, a boon for adventurers, the ultimate invention, the teleportation crystal."
Seeing that Thousand Hands had taken out the prop, Loki stopped arguing. "Does this crystal have any special use? Is it a powerful bomb?"
"Although there are bombs, their most important function is to allow the user to return to the designated location instantly, even from the dungeon, you can go directly back to Orario," Senju explained, and the eyes of the two gods next to him gradually lit up.
Looking at the crystal in Thousand Hands' hand, they cautiously asked, "Can we try this out?"
“Of course,” Senju nodded, then made another teleportation crystal. “However, for easier verification, let’s use two. This crystal will be used to teleport to Rivera on the eighteenth floor, and this one will be used to teleport to the gate of the Twilight Mansion.”
“Philwis, why don’t you try going to the eighteenth floor and collecting some items?” Dionysus said, glancing at the elven beauty behind him. She nodded, picked up the crystal, and crushed it as instructed by the Thousand Hands. Then, after a flash of light, she disappeared.
“So, during the experiment,” Loki looked at Dionysus with displeasure, “what brings you here? If not, please go back.”
“Actually, the main reason I came here is to report something to you,” Dionysus said with a slightly somber expression. “On the 24th floor, the number of monsters has increased explosively, and the adventurers are stuck there and unable to move forward.”
“A monster outbreak?” Senju and William exchanged a glance. They had been talking about this last night, and now they were facing something similar.
“Not bad, and the guild hasn’t made any moves,” Dionysus nodded slightly to the Thousand Hands, while Loki beside him grew impatient. “Speak, what do you want us to do?”
“I don’t have any requests. I’m just here to report to you as a comrade facing this incident,” Dionysus said calmly, but this made Loki very impatient. He already suspected that Dionysus was the mastermind, and now he had come out to report.
"What comrade? Nobody asked you to report to me," Loki was getting impatient when Lefia ran over from the side. "Loki, Miss Ais sent a letter. She said she received a temporary assignment to go to the 24th floor."
"What?!" Loki shouted, snatching the letter and reading it. "Really? Don't worry, Ais, you big idiot!"
"Lefia, fetch Bert," Loki called out, and Lefia, who was standing nearby, responded and ran off.
"Shall we go after the Sword Maiden?" Dionysus had just finished speaking when he heard the sound of rapid running in the distance. Philwis came running over, carrying a green item.
"Hmm, she's back already?" Senju nodded, looking at her. "I wonder what she brought back?"
The two gods beside her were also looking at her.
Then Philwiss placed the items he was carrying on the table, and the person next to him looked at them and found that they were a bright green arm guard and a quill pen.
"What is this?" Even Dionysus didn't quite understand. Philwis explained, "I met Miss Swordswoman on the eighteenth floor. After we explained things, she gave me this, saying it was an important item, and this pen as a token."
“This pen does belong to Ais, but our Ais doesn’t have one,” Loki said, turning the pen over and over in his hands. William, however, picked it up and examined it. “That’s right, it’s Bell’s equipment. Why is it in Miss Swordswoman’s hands?”
"Do you know whose equipment this is?" Loki asked, turning his head. Thousand Hands explained from the side, "This should be the equipment of Bell Crane of the Hestia Familia."
"What? What happened to Ais from that little dwarf's family?" Loki was in a state of confusion. Philwis continued, "The Sword Maiden said this is an important item and that Loki must not lose it. She will need it when she comes back. Oh, and she also gave me the location of the mission and the code word 'Potato Dumpling-kun Matcha Cream Flavor'."
"Aaaaaah!" Loki screamed, clutching his head. After a moment, he suddenly stopped and looked at Thousand Hands. "You didn't design this, did you? To make me buy these super expensive crystals."
“Nothing like that,” Senju shook his head repeatedly. “It’s just a coincidence. You don’t have to buy it.”
"Tch," Loki scoffed, then looked at Thousand Hands, "Give me two crystals to teleport to the eighteenth floor, and three crystals to bring me back."
“I also want a crystal to go to the eighteenth floor,” Dionysus said with a smile, looking at Loki with a smile. “As an ally, I should also make my contribution.”
Then he looked at Philwis behind him and said, "Philwis, I need Loki's trust, and trust needs to be built through actions, you understand?"
“Don’t say that in front of her,” Loki muttered, then said loudly, “But if the teleportation crystals were useful, Ais would be back right away, there’s no need to waste them.”
“But will Fiora really abandon the mission?” Dionysus looked calmly at Loki, while Philwis behind him hesitated. “But what about me?”
“Go on, Philwiss, everything will be alright,” Dionysus said, standing up and taking her hand. Philwiss nodded, then turned to look at Loki. “So that’s how it is.”
“Wait, I haven’t agreed yet,” Loki said, watching the other party put on a show, unable to find a way to refuse. “Fine, let’s leave it at that. You’ll send people over too, right, Senju?”
Chapter 425 Conflict Between Creators
“Yes,” Senju nodded. “This time I will send William and another member of the Familia, Gin Ichimaru, over there. Gin will be here soon.”
