DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

"Change your head my foot..." Shaga smiled kindly again, "I can send you to mine, the kind where there are Faris everywhere."

Bos fell silent and stood still.

A dozen minutes later, Xia Jia escorted the supply truck into the 19th floor.

Compared to last time, their numbers have increased, and their pace of advance has greatly accelerated. The squad avoids areas with the most monsters, clearing out only the minimum number of monsters nearby.

However, the complex terrain of the tree maze slowed down the advance of the supply trucks.

Therefore, Kong changed his approach.

They placed Kaori Miyazono on the supply truck, which was pulled forward by the monsters summoned by Shaka. As the violin music continued, her physical strength and magical power were restored at a constant rate.

The young players followed the supply trucks, chanting their own spells.

Black flames, poisonous curses, magical projectiles, sonic boom shockwaves—one magical turret after another unleashed a barrage of attacks.

Even those without magic picked up the muskets from the supplies, loaded them, and fired. Their accuracy was a bit lacking, but as a form of suppression, they were effective in clearing out the monsters.

In the front row are Tokishiro wielding a giant hammer, Yuuki who has reached level 2 and is agile, and Miko who is possessed by silence.

"With one force, I can break all laws; with speed, I am invincible; and with my son, I am utterly shameless. I will directly invoke the gods."

If Tokishori couldn't kill it with a single hammer blow, Yuuki would finish it off; if the two of them couldn't handle it, Miko would pierce the magic stone with her sword for an instant kill. Even when encountering elite monsters above her level, Lyra would still be watching intently from the sidelines.

With the magic and gunfire behind them working in tandem, the squad rolled forward like a wheel.

Xia Jia, taking a break from her busy schedule, asked Kong, who was beside her:

"Do you think Rivera's group was the opponent's main force?"

Kong gave him a look as if he were an idiot: "What do you think?"

I don't think so either...

and so……

What was their purpose in staging that play?

Raising his hand, he shot a Burgherita bear in the eye and laughed:

"What else could it be? Delaying time, of course."

"If that person wanted to lure out Gale, they would have to use themselves as bait; otherwise, why would Senior Gale have rushed into the lower level without hesitation?"

Shaga pondered, "So, in order to prevent Gale from catching up and to give her companions more time to prepare, she should have Rivera's cannon fodder join the pursuit of Gale to distract her?"

Kong raised his hand again and fired a shot, ending the life of a monster.

"Yes, that's about it."

Shaga speculated, "Since we thwarted his plans, is it possible that he's already been caught by 'Gale'?"

Kong stuck out her tongue: "Oh dear, it seems so."

"Hey!" Xia Jia exclaimed in surprise.

It wasn't because they were afraid that Jalu would be killed prematurely, but because they were afraid that the other party would resort to desperate measures.

Just as Xia Jia was urging the team to set off quickly.

With a loud 'boom,' the ground trembled.

"Hey, hey—no way." Xia Jia, startled, sensed the ground trembling and her gaze fell on Kong.

"Is this your plan too?"

Kong shrugged: "How could that be? It was just a simple accident. Hmm... maybe our intelligence was also known to the other side, after all, they made such a big fuss about it."

However, Kong remained completely calm. "Hmm, I seem to remember making a backup plan... who did I send again?"

He touched his chin, looking completely bewildered.

Xia Jia frowned slightly: "I'll go down and check the situation first. You guys hurry up."

As he spoke, a spatial portal opened, and the kunai fell down. Xia Jia transformed into a beam of starlight and instantly appeared on a rock on the 27th floor.

He looked around the moment he landed.

The rock strata above made a cracking sound, with cracks winding and swirling, but they did not collapse, and the sound of flowing water could be heard.

"The blast radius was smaller than I expected?"

What happened? Was it because you lacked experience the first time and didn't apply enough pressure?

The original plan was to summon Zagnat on the 27th floor by deceiving the enemy through a large-scale explosion of firestones, which was a bug-exploiting act, so failure seemed inevitable.

The current result is...

Dungeon: Have you gone in yet?

Jaluo: He went in.

Dungeon: Then why don't I feel anything?

Jaluo: I'm done.

Just as Shaga was puzzled, the dungeon still rioted.

However, the wailing that Shaga had expected did not appear. Instead, two exceptionally fierce dragon roars came out.

Shaga quickly left the collapsing cave and arrived at the edge of a cliff. A huge waterfall cascaded down three floors, and two enormous dragon figures swam in the water.

"This is... the dungeon's unsatisfied desires, seeking revenge? Giving birth to twins at once? No, although its size is far different from the recorded Amphispina, it was definitely just a monster!"

Xia Jia's expression turned grave: "They gave birth to a giant?"

Just as Shaga thought something had gone wrong, the dungeon gave him another surprise. The two-headed dragon climbed the waterfall against the current, its massive jaws easily swallowing many aquatic monsters along the way. Their magic stones were absorbed into the dragon's belly, and then its body underwent some subtle changes...

"Holy crap, an enhanced species?"

Shaka was stunned. In the history of DanMachi that he knew, there was no precedent for the Lone King of the Labyrinth having a strengthened species. Perhaps there was...

But those must have been the three major natural disasters of the past.

"We can't let this thing grow. If we don't do anything about it, it will grow into something even more troublesome than the Fallen Immortal Spirit in just one or two months!"

However, given the current situation, Shaga doesn't have any good solutions. Most of the supplies prepared to fight the two-headed dragon are stored on supply trucks, and Shaga alone really can't deal with these creatures that hide in the water.

Just as he looked around, trying to find the useless elf before making any further plans.

Someone patted him on the shoulder.

He turned around abruptly and saw Sakurajima Mai wearing a black cloak.

"What are you doing?"

"..." That's a question I should be asking you.

Shaka didn't say it aloud, but when he saw Mai Sakurajima there, the thing he couldn't understand suddenly became clear.

It's not that Kong hadn't planned for this; it's that he forgot.

Xia Jia was aware of this plan...

Sakurajima Mai is to be disguised as a member of a dark faction and follow Jarrow to carry out the plan, interfering with his actions when necessary.

"These are some of the fire stones I confiscated. See if they can be of any use," Mai Sakurajima said, taking out dozens of stones emitting a crimson glow from her spatial pouch.

The emotional building didn't collapse; you just stole all the ammunition.

Chapter 230 You are such a cunning human.

Xia Jia didn't accept the Flame Stone. The thing was in Sakurajima Mai's spatial pocket, which was not much different from keeping it in her own pocket, except that the warehouse model was different.

The important thing right now is...

Have you seen Ryu? Where is she?

Mai Sakurajima nodded. "I know, but I can't take you there. The monsters on the way will tear me apart. I can only 'disappear,' and once I 'disappear,' you won't remember me."

Shaga really wanted to say, "I will protect you."

However, in the event of a dungeon riot, even a level 4 character might not fare well. Shaga gave up the opportunity to increase favorability, saying:

“Mark a location for me on [ST].

……

27th floor, a certain cave.

Jaluo excitedly brandished his long whip, commanding a giant serpent, several meters long and larger than the entire passageway, to attack and defend.

"Hahaha, run away, run away! Everyone here will be shrouded in despair!"

Jaluo covered his face with his only remaining severed arm, and laughed wildly to the sky:

"Hahaha, did you know? This floor is pierced through by the Giant Waterfall, so damage from all floors is treated as damage from the same floor. That's why the dungeon creates an illusion!"

Ryu's eyes widened as he used his wooden sword to deflect the giant serpent's charge, glaring angrily at Jaluo:

"You, you could it be..."

Jaluo spread his arms, gazing at "Gale," whose face showed despair:

"Yes! It took me two years to finally find a way to scream 'despair'!"
