I like traveling the most

In a small hotel far from the center of the Eighth Street.

Xiaolin, with a swollen nose and face, was lying on the bed, while Liu Zi was rubbing his bruises all over his body.

"Hiss, it hurts!"

The force used was a bit too much, and Xiaolin grimaced in pain, and at the same time he couldn't help complaining: "That stupid and irritable werewolf who didn't know how to strike was obviously here to teach me, but in the end he still got really angry. If it weren't for my toughness, I would have been killed in the dungeon."

Although he said so, in fact, he couldn't help it. He felt wronged by being beaten by the opponent, and used super-standard skills, so he lay on the bed with sore body.

The effect of the skill [Otherworld Hero] is to restore physical strength and mental strength, and the body's healing power can only be powerless.

He can use healing magic to recover, but at that time he used [Explosion Magic] to drain all the magic power in his body, resulting in the inability to use skills to heal his injuries. He was carried back to the hotel by Liu Zi to rest after struggling.

But it was not without gain.

Xiao Lin pointed at the proficiency on the parchment and boasted to Liu Zi: "Look, Miss Liu Zi! This proficiency is growing at an insanely fast rate!"

"But I can't beat the stupid wolf."

"Is there anyone who can upgrade faster than me?"

"But I can't beat the stupid wolf."

"Sure enough, coming here is the right choice!"

"But I can't beat the stupid wolf."

"... Can we not mention the wolf?"

What's the difference between this venomous remark and "You've been beaten by a monkey"?

Don't I want to save face?

Seeing Liu Zi's expressionless face, it should be the same venomous tongue as usual.

Then, he picked up the parchment again.

Xiaolin looked at the value above, feeling happy and melancholy. He sighed and said, "It's such a high value. It seems like it was just yesterday when I came to the maze city."

"I have to remind you, Mr. Xiaolin. If you count by time, it's only been 47 hours, 52 minutes and 33 seconds since you came to the maze city. It can barely be considered yesterday." The automatic doll Liu Zi accurately reported the time.

"Thank you for your reminder, Liu Zi."

"You're welcome. This is what I should do."

I'm not praising you!

Xiaolin turned his head and looked carefully at the expression of the waiter sitting next to him. He said uncertainly, "Miss Liu Zi, are you angry?"

"How could it be? Even if Mr. Xiaolin challenged the strong man beyond his ability and was beaten black and blue, as your waiter, I would not persuade him at all. Instead, I would agree with your extremely stupid decision." Liu Zi's venomous tongue was worse than before, making Xiaolin unable to resist.

I can understand that Liu Zi cares about me, but to be honest, is it necessary to be so venomous? But I understand that this is due to her program setting, and there is no possibility of change at all.

In that case...

He pulled Ryuko down and pounced on her.

Dad said that only magic can defeat magic, so Xiaolin decided to use his mouth to block Ryuko's mouth and stop her from being venomous.

Just right.

It was late at night, and it was time to rest.

On the other side, at this time, Ais was active with another family of Diona.

——Guberniu family.

The main business of this family is the repair and renovation of buildings, the repair and production of equipment such as weapons and armor. It is a forging production family. The scale of its family is much smaller than that of the Hephaestus family, but the performance of its weapons can be said to be comparable. Most of them will only make weapons after receiving commissions.

It is also a partner of the [Loki family].

The weapon of the sword princess Ais, the [Sword of Despair], is a rapier with an indestructible attribute, which is produced by the Guberniu family.

However——

"Sorry, there is a problem with the weapon again."

Ais put the long sword with a cracked blade in her hand flat on the counter with an expressionless face.

The old man in front of him, who had many wrinkles, a high nose bridge and a handsome face, wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

‘Heh, not bad. ’

This old man was the god Gubernew.

His forging skills were comparable to those of Hephaestus, but even so, the weapons he forged could not withstand the output of the Princess of Revenge.

“Sincerely, 100W fari.”

The god Gubernew quoted the price as usual.

This was the cost of repairing the [Sword of Despair]. Sword Princess Ais also took out a bag of fari with ease. It seemed that this had happened several times.

The god Gubernew took the money and said, “Put the sword here first, and take the spare one later.”

“Thank you.” Sword Princess Ais sincerely thanked.

Expeditions are extremely resource-consuming activities, not only energy and physical strength, but also medicines, weapons, equipment, etc. At the same time, the higher the level of weapons and equipment, the more money is needed to repair and maintain them.

So Sword Princess Ais is often short of money, and sometimes she has to go to the upper level of the dungeon to earn some extra money.

Sword Lady Ais picked up the spare long sword and silently made way.

Then the God of Gubernu looked at the black-skinned Diona who was constantly looking at her equipment and asked: "What about you? Is your weapon also broken and needs maintenance?"

"No, it was dissolved."

"...What?"

"Because I encountered a highly corrosive monster on the 50th floor and accidentally dissolved the greatsword, ahahaha——"

Tiona laughed, completely unapologetic.

I didn't even see the dark face of God Gubonyu.

The God of Forging has a bad temper when he gets along with fire. When he encounters this kind of thing, he can't help but spit out: "You idiot! Do you know that the [Great Double Blade] uses many precious materials, and the top craftsman in the Familia clan The first-level weapon, the double-blade sword, that people worked tirelessly to forge! Even if you spent money on it, take good care of it!"

"...Yes, I'm sorry!"

Seeing that God Gubonius was angry, Diona quickly apologized.

But God Gubonius also knew what kind of character she was, and he must have apologized in person and then turned around as usual, so he didn't bother to scold her.

but!

The money that should be given cannot be less!

Just as they were discussing the size and materials of the new double sword, a familiar figure walked in from outside.

"Hey, it's Mr. Raul!"

"Raul?"

Tiona discovered him first, followed by Ais and God Gubonyu.

Raul was stunned for a moment when he saw the two of them, but he quickly greeted them: "Miss Tiona, Miss Ais, you are also here to build equipment."

"I mean, is it because the weapon is broken?"

"Oh, that's when it was."

Raul was stunned.

Apparently he also remembered Tiona's reckless behavior on the 50th floor.

Instead, Tiona asked curiously: "Mr. Raul also comes here to build equipment? But I remember that you don't fight many times."

"Ahaha..."

Raul scratched his cheek awkwardly.

This is a bit hurtful.

Indeed, he is only a LV4 [Super Ordinary], and he seems to have little experience, but he is also an indispensable member who is responsible for mediating the atmosphere in the expedition team and planning and organizing for the expedition members.

"You guys, let's catch up on old times and go out later. Raul, what's the purpose of your coming?"

God Gubonius was a little impatient after receiving the order. He was rushing a few people to leave quickly.

Raul stepped forward, took out a piece of ore about the size of his palm, and said, "God Guberniu, I would like to ask you to use this piece of ore to make a small buckler."

"A small buckler? Well, the simple equipment suits you quite well."

God Guberneau said casually, causing Raul to scratch his cheek in embarrassment again.

He also knew that he had no talent compared to Sword Lady Ace and Werewolf Bert. He was just an ordinary super mortal, but it was still a little embarrassing to be exposed by his blunt words.

The god Guberneau picked up the ore and looked at it carefully.

After waiting for a long time, there was no reply.

Raul was curious, and after looking at each other with Sword Queen Ais and Black Piediona, he couldn't help but asked softly: "Well...God Guberneau, can this ore..."

"Silence, don't disturb me!"

I didn't expect to be interrupted rudely.

The strange behavior of God Gubonius made the three of them confused. But he was still obedient and said nothing, waiting for the other party to finish the investigation.

A long while.

God Gubonyu raised his head, with novelty in his eyes at this time, and said: "Did you dig this piece of ore in the underground city? Is it new on the 50th floor? How much is there? Is it difficult to dig it? ?”

Several questions were thrown in succession, leaving people unable to answer for a while.

Raul, who was still mature and honest, took the initiative and said: "Actually, this ore was given to me as a reward by someone, and it is not an ore produced from the underground city. God Guberniu, is there something special and rare about this ore?" Ore?"

"Special, very special! Even I have never seen it before!"

One sentence shocked the three of them.

If ordinary people say that they have never seen it, they can use ignorance to despise the other party. But the white-haired old man in front of him is a god who has lived for hundreds of millions of years, and he is also the god of forging. He even said that he had never seen it before, and it must be an extremely special ore.

"Whether it's hardness or toughness, it's better than the material used to make the Immortal Sword. You understand that."

The god Guberneau kept playing with the ore in his hand.

This has been made clear.

Ais, who wanted to become stronger, looked at the ore in God Gubonyu's hand with strong desire in her eyes.

Early on the third day.

"Hmm~~~~~~"

Xiao Lin stretched lazily, feeling refreshed after a long night of work.

Under Liu Zi's service, it was over quickly.

Then the two walked out of the hotel together.

"Master Xiaolin, do you want to go to the dungeon now?"

"No, let's go to the guild first."

He wants to exchange the magic stones and materials he harvested in the dungeon in the past two days for money.

Xiaolin has already inquired about it. Today is Aina's day to rest. It is a perfect opportunity to go now to avoid her.

As the second most important facility in Labyrinth City, the Adventurer's Guild's fairness is obvious to all.

After clearing out the magic stones and materials, he received a large bounty.

——A full 1.8 million Farley!

Among them, the materials dropped by the floor master, LV4 Goliath and the half-human-high magic stone account for half of the bounty, and the rest are the magic stones and materials dropped by the minotaur.

But the guild's window lady is indeed a professional.

Even though Xiao Lin presented so many and exaggerated materials, she remained expressionless without any look of surprise.

...Don't you think that Xiao Lin is a representative of a certain family or a team of adventurers?

Forget it, this little thing doesn't matter.

Then Xiaolin went to the drug store.

After the ferocious wolf beating someone up, Xiao Lin found that he had to bring some medicine with him just in case. Otherwise, if he used [Explosion Magic] again and was seriously injured due to excessive consumption, not even Liu Zi would be able to save him.

In fact, I still have two bottles of Aqua's holy water with me, but its effect is greater in purification than healing, so it's better to reserve some insurance.

Soon, he spent 150,000 mana to buy a bottle of advanced healing potion and two bottles of magic recovery potion.

With these three bottles of potion, Xiao Lin suddenly felt confident.

But now, there is another problem.

He is in urgent need of an excellent forger or tailor, because there is not enough silk thread!

This was something Xiao Lin didn't expect.

Probably due to the high frequency of fighting monsters and the continuous battles with the pig Otta and the werewolf Bert, the gloves were consumed much faster than he expected.

The two-hand gloves have changed from a full package to a half package, and they will probably be used up soon.

no way.

You can go back and get the ores, so let's use them now.

But where to find a blacksmith?

And it has to be a forger that satisfies him.

With a try-it attitude, Xiaolin randomly opened an equipment store, hoping to meet a powerful forger who is cheap and skilled and wants to prove his talent, and then solve the problem of weapons.

But he randomly opened the doors of more than a dozen equipment stores, but he didn't meet a suitable forger.

It wasn't until Xiaolin felt irritated that he stopped thinking of pie in the sky.

Sure enough, he is not the protagonist.

If the lucky Sato Kazuma came, he would definitely meet a suitable forger.

It seems that he can only save money quickly and then go to find a senior forger from the Guberniu family or the Hephaestus family.

Sigh.

After all, he can't escape the fate of a worker.

He immediately walked towards the dungeon.

However, when he walked towards the chalk tower that rose into the clouds in the distance, he didn't notice that a red-haired man with an irritable expression and a menacing momentum walked into the equipment store he had just left not far behind him.

And soon after he entered, a quarrel broke out inside.

The aggressive red-haired man stood in front of the counter, waving his hands and arguing loudly with the owner of the store.

But these have nothing to do with Xiaolin, he has already come to the dungeon.

To be precise, it is the 16th floor.

"【Dimensional Array】 is very useful, it can save a lot of time and let me be a more progressive worker, very good!"

Although Xiaolin's expression was kind and smiling, it was not difficult to hear from his tone that he was very resentful.

Maybe he had the illusion of returning to his previous life as a cow and horse, so he was ready to vent his anger on this group of minotaurs.

"Hey ha————, the flying stick is coming!"

Xiaolin cleared all the minotaurs on this floor in a few seconds.

But when he was about to enter the 17th floor, he stopped.

Could someone be waiting for him?

No, no, no, that irritable werewolf Bert was injured, and with his personality, he would never tell others, so he must rest for a few days.

Ota probably won't come again, so it seems that there is definitely no one waiting for him on the lower floor!

Then——

When Xiaolin came to the room of the floor owner on the 17th floor, he saw a figure.

The girl had straight golden hair that reached her waist, exuding a radiance that could rival any gold treasure. Her back was exposed to reveal her white and thin back, and her soft limbs stretched out from the armor were so beautiful that they were dazzling.

Turning her head, she looked at Xiaolin with golden pupils and a very cold expression. She had an appearance that was not inferior to that of a goddess, and a temperament that was like an immortal in a heroic story.

It was the sword princess Ais.

When Xiaolin saw her, he was not happy or excited, but had a constipated expression on his face.

Ouch!

Don't do this, I want to go to the 18th floor!
