I like traveling the most

Eight days flew by. →

Soon, the day of the expedition came.

Even though Xiao Lin was about to go to a dangerous place, he didn't feel nervous, uneasy, or excited, and he woke up naturally as always.

The sunlight shining through the cracks in the curtains made Xiao Lin slowly open his eyes.

He propped up his upper body on the bed in the hotel he rented, looked at the waiter who was curled up in his arms and looking at him, and then looked out the window.

The sky was clear and cloudless.

It's a good day for an expedition into the dungeons.

"Good morning, Master Xiaolin."

"Good morning, Liu Zi."

With the morning greetings, the two officially got up.

Despite this, Xiao Lin was still waiting for Liu Zi's service like a useless person.

From dressing to washing your face, Liu Zi takes care of everything.

Standing in front of the hotel mirror, Liu Zi stretched out her hand to straighten Xiao Lin's collar, so close that she could smell her scent.

Can't help but hold it in my arms.

The waiter's venomous tongue came immediately: "Master Xiaolin, even if you have excess energy, please be patient. If you consume too much now, you will become a hindrance."

Consumption? How to consume?

...Although she really wanted to ask Liu Zi to help her burn it out, as she said, it would not be good if she was laughed at by members of the Loki Familia because of her weak legs.

After all, he is a special person, and any dissatisfaction will be magnified.

Naturally, you have to be full of energy to join.

Xiao Lin hugged her harder and said sincerely, "I just feel safe having Liu Zi by my side."

Liu Zi stretched out her hand and touched Xiao Lin's head: "Don't worry, Master Xiao Lin. I will always be by your side until the moment the gears on your body are damaged and stop running."

"Me too. Until the moment I die and cannot be resurrected, I will never leave you behind."

Xiao Lin couldn't help but lower his head.

The warm touch lasted for a long time, until the sun outside the window kept reminding him that time had come, and the two separated.

"Liu Zi, this is for you."

Xiao Lin took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and stuffed it into Liu Zi's hand.

The potion contained in the small light blue bottle is glowing with starlight. Looking at it will attract your attention. It looks very special.

It was Hermes's gift of thanks for Xiaolin's rescue of his family members.

Liu Zi wondered: "I don't understand, Mr. Xiaolin. I am a doll and the potion cannot be used. Why should you give it to me?"

"Just in case."

"Actually, Mr. Xiaolin was afraid that he wouldn't be able to use it in time, so he gave it to me for safekeeping."

"...If you know it, don't tell it."

Xiao Lin couldn't help but complain.

It was okay in front of outsiders, but once the two of them were alone, Liu Zi would keenly expose his inner thoughts without mercy.

Although she said this, Liu Zi still obediently placed the potion on her chest.

It's really on the chest.

Open the chest and put the potion and your gear together.

This is a potion that can instantly heal injuries. Even the gods praise it. It is equivalent to another life.

Liu Zi will naturally take it seriously.

After that, Xiao Lin carried the backpack that had been prepared by the bedside, containing tents, food and other supplies, and walked out of the hotel with Liu Zi.

The streets are lively.

The clear, cloudless sky casts sunshine onto the central square.

These eight streets converge in the central open space, where many adventurers form a crowd early in the morning.

I don’t know if the news of [Loki Familia]’s expedition has spread again, but there are a lot of pedestrians on the street this morning, both adventurers and residents gathered on both sides of the street leading to the Tower of Babel.

Probably because he wanted to witness the splendor of [Loki Familia].

Passing by the central square, he walked towards the fixed food stall. After enjoying a delicious breakfast there, Xiaolin walked along the street to the meeting place.

——The House of Twilight.

This is the residence of [Loki Familia]. There is a huge castle, which looks quite impressive from the outside.

It fits the temperament of the most powerful faction in Labyrinth City.

Xiaolin's eyesight was very good, and he saw the brave Finn and others waiting at the gate of the tower from a long distance.

Especially the werewolf Bert standing at the front.

The equipment's double-arm gauntlets and silver-white metal boots shine brightly in the sunlight.

This guy is so cool.

Facing the curiosity of the onlookers, Xiao Lin and Liu Zi stepped forward.

Before he could say hello to the brave Finn, the werewolf Burt took the lead and said: "Hey! You bastard looks quite leisurely. Are you going to go on an outing? Forget it, it doesn't matter. Just stay back. You’re going to hold me back, you know!”

"Um…………"

"You guy, what's that expression?!"

"It's nothing, I just didn't expect that Mr. Bert would make such a provocation, and I'm a little disappointed in you."

"What did you say?!!!"

Veins popped out on Wolfman Burt's forehead.

I really wanted to take advantage of this to make trouble for the ignorant guy in front of me, but I was stopped by the extraordinary Raul.

What if a conflict breaks out before the expedition even starts?

In fact, both Xiaolin and Raul understood that Bert's harsh words were just to show his past attitude and to give the grassroots members a sense of security.

Although it's more of a fear.

Tione, who was at odds with him, suddenly laughed mischievously when he saw the werewolf Burt was defeated, and happily greeted Xiao Lin: "Hey, little brother, please give me more advice this time."

"Me too, please give me more advice... The premise is that you can't hold back the leader, otherwise, you understand!"

Tiona warned word for word.

Compared with the werewolf Burt, the Amazon sisters welcomed Xiao Lin more.

Standing next to them were their old friend Sword Girl Ais and her little follower Lefiya, both of whom also expressed their welcome.

"Please give me some advice."

"Please, please give me some advice!"

As cold and nervous as ever, it seems they are ready to take risks.

Following the path opened by the crowd, Xiao Lin came to the front of the three giants of the Loki Familia clan and said hello in a normal way: "Good morning, everyone."

Grace: "Morning! Today is a day suitable for adventurers, are you ready?"

Riveria: "Good morning, Mr. Kobayashi."

Finn: "I'm sorry, Xiaolin. They are a bunch of hot-blooded guys, and their morale is so high that it's a headache."

Calm, quiet and peaceful, the three of them also welcomed Xiao Lin's arrival.

"It's okay, it's okay. Having energy is a good thing, isn't it."

Xiao Lin waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing.

It was like elementary school students going on an outing. Every time there were always a few people who were extremely excited. He had seen this kind of scene before, so it was no surprise.

“It’s great to understand.”

The brave Finn sighed helplessly.

God knows how much he has worried about these problem children. It is even more sad to think of the time when the Big Three were not at odds with each other.

A large number of adventurers gathered outside the Dusk Pavilion.

Even a fool knows what they are trying to do.

The flag of the clown regiment, which even children dared not cry, was raised, and members of the largest faction in the city geared up. Under everyone's expectant and nervous gaze, the leader of the [Loki Familia]——Brave Finn, Gao Sound the command:

"Set off!"

Immediately, a group of people marched in the direction of the Tower of Babel.

I have to say, [Loki Familia] is really eye-catching.

People on both sides of the street were constantly looking at him. If it was that cowardly rabbit, the eager eyes like the waves would probably scare him into running away, burying himself in the soil and sticking out his round butt.

I couldn't help laughing when I thought of this.

The brave Finn asked in confusion: "What's wrong, Xiaolin?"

"No, I just feel that the noble family members are really treated like stars. Being watched by so many people always feels a lot of pressure."

"Ah haha, there is no other way. This is the price for making the family famous far and wide. Xiao Lin must adapt as soon as possible."

"I don't want it."

Xiao Lin shrugged and decisively refused.

The expedition of the large family members was not as easy as imagined.

Just like if a huge machine wants to operate normally, any part must start to rotate without making any mistakes.

Support group, defense group, stay group, vanguard group, combat group.

and the command team.

"Xiao Lin, I heard Riveria and Ace say that your eyes are special?"

"Special? That's right. What's wrong, Captain Finn?"

"In this dangerous dungeon, can I ask you to use your eyes to guard me?"

"Of course! That's why I exist."

Xiao Lin did not refuse.

Participating in a large-scale Familia expedition as a LV2 person, the force is obviously inferior to that of a battle group formed by LV5 and LV6 classes. If you want to show your presence and play a role, you must obviously use it flexibly to stand out compared to others. [Eyes] This is the only advantage.

"Then, let me explain the general arrangements."

"Excuse me, Captain Finn."

The Loki Familia still chose the usual expedition method, and did not disrupt their pace just because they joined outsiders.

Because there are only a small number of supporters, Xiaolin and others should cooperate with them.

First, they were divided into two groups. A group of vanguards consisting of Finn, Riveria, Grace, Ace, Bert, Tione and Tiona were responsible for clearing the monsters on the road to the 18th floor in advance. Let's clean it up. Then meet up with the large army there and go straight down to the 59th floor in one breath.

"How about it? Will there be any pressure?"

"No, not at all."

The upper levels no longer pose a threat to him, and even he can easily reach the safe level.

For Kobayashi, the hard place is at the bottom.

But in the future, there will be protection from the members of the Loki Familia, and danger will be even less likely.

Xiaolin has a clear positioning of himself.

After that, he was placed in the first group.

In order to quickly clear away monsters along the way, the existence of [eyes] is necessary.

"Having said that, if you need treatment, please come to me. I will do my best to dedicate myself."

"That's a real help."

Finn the Brave meant what he said.

Riveria and Grace nodded in agreement.

The reason why they agreed to participate in the family expedition with Xiao Lin, who was sent by the God of the Sky to monitor them, was largely because his healing ability was excellent, possibly even better than that [Saint of the Battlefield] Ahmed.

Potions will always be used up, but healing magic can always be reused.

This is quite important for expeditions.

——————

Adventurer's Guild Underground Altar.

The flame of the torch exploded with a crisp explosion.

In the dark space whose floor is covered with huge stone slabs, four torches illuminate the ancient temple altar in the center.

"The expedition has begun."

The serious tone of the sky god echoed, and his blue eyes continued to stare upward, as if looking across the floor at the mighty group of adventurers.

At this time, another person's voice sounded from the altar.

"They are really going to take action."

In a corner of the stone hall, Fels emerged from the accumulated darkness.

The God of the Sky didn't even look at Fels who walked out of the darkness. He only responded with his voice: "Yes, Loki also wants to get information about a series of commotions."

"Do you think there is really a key to the incident deep in the dungeon... on the 59th floor, Ouranos?"

"There's no hard evidence, but I'm sure."

"Is it because of God's intuition?"

Fels has always maintained hatred and respect for the existence of gods. He can best understand the power of gods.

"Is that why you arranged the [eyes] one step in advance?"

"Exactly."

They are talking about Xiao Lin.

Because he was suspicious of Loki, he specially placed Xiao Lin there, but it was a little inappropriate to keep his eyes on the bright side.

But it doesn't matter.

In order to prevent accidents, or for verification, Fels had already installed another eye.

"By the way, you failed, Hermes."

The sky god withdrew his gaze and looked towards another darkness.

Following his words, a man dressed in ordinary but particularly elegant clothes walked out of the darkness. He held up the brim of his featherless hat and said, "I can't help it. I tried my best, but I didn't expect to be rejected."

Hermes looked shocked.

He really likes Xiao Lin.

At first, the sky god Ouranos highly recommended Xiao Lin, but he refused, because you can't just accept him if you ask him to, you have to give it a try no matter what.

But after trying it, he really hoped that Xiao Lin could join the family clan.

However, he ignored Xiaolin's idea and did not expect to be decisively rejected, and the reason for the rejection was still so hurtful.

"But I have already done what you asked me to do."

"That bottle of potion?"

"That's right. In order to prevent him from having any accidents, I specially gave him the bottle of potion. Moreover, there are also my feathers."

"feather……"

Under the illumination of the torch, Uranus, the god of the sky, discovered that the feather on the brim of Hermes' hat had disappeared.

"Did you even give him the feathers?"

"Hahaha, it wasn't given, it was stolen in front of me. So, that's a reward! It's a reward for taking my feather away in front of me, the God of Thieves!"

Despite saying this, Hermes' tone was so cheerful, and he no longer concealed his appreciation for Xiao Lin.

He is the God of orders!

Since he is the god of messengers, it is natural that the feathers that represent the symbol of the god are special.

Ignoring the mad Hermes under the altar, the God of the Sky raised his head and pointed his blue eyes toward the top of his head that was blocked by darkness.

He was meditating.

For the expedition of the Loki Familia, what awaits them will be an unprecedented disaster, or an unprecedented fierce light will sprout under the disaster.

Which side will it be?

The headquarters of the Loki Familia, at the top of the central tower of the Dusk Mansion.

After watching Finn and the others leave the headquarters, Loki climbed onto the roof and stared intently at the center of the city where shouts were heard.

Be sure to come back safely, everyone.

The goddess offered a sincere prayer.

On the highest floor of the white-walled tower, the goddess smiled unknown to others.

She stared at the tall backs in front of the crowd.

Come, let your glorious deeds unfold and show your brilliance.

Under the gaze of the gods.

Dungeon is about to write the next adventure story.
