Zongman: The only God Slayer adopted by the Nakano family

Finn could barely understand what the priest said, but he really couldn't understand what it meant to bring a [Supporter]!

If there wasn't someone present, Finn would have wanted to ask Grace what on earth he was thinking!

....

Chapter 406: Dwarfs, Facing Death

“…This is the one I favor the most, and he’s the bravest among the expedition group, and the one who has the most courage to sacrifice for Orario.

Looking at Finn, who was obviously emotionally broken, Grace was silent for a long time before speaking in a deep voice.

"what?"

Finn was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly understood what Grace meant.

After taking a subtle look at the two adventurers following Grace, his expression gradually became serious.

"Grace, have you told them the purpose of this expedition?"

Finn's tone was unusually cold. The Adventurer's Guild had classified the goal of this expedition as a secret, in order to prevent the Loki Expedition from losing confidence, and also to guard against those with ulterior motives.

According to the strict confidentiality, even Grace was not qualified to know the goal of this expedition. It was only in order for Grace's trip to go smoothly that Finn told Grace about the dragon scales.

I originally thought that Grace would choose reliable teammates no matter what. Not to mention taking the rising star Ai Si, but other level 4 and level 5 adventurers could also be considered. However,

Thinking of this, Finn looked again at the two adventurers chosen by Grace.

The levels of these two adventurers are not high, one has just entered LV4, and the other is a solid LV3. If Grace were to complete the mission with such a lineup, the probability of her survival would be too low!

"I'm sorry, Captain Finn, they have the right to know why they died."

The dwarf warrior lowered his head, and his old but still sturdy body hunched over at this moment.

In fact, Grace was also very upset. He didn't want to take other adventurers with him to complete the material collection mission. The most perfect idea in Grace's mind was that he would complete the mission alone. As long as he could successfully collect the dragon scales, he would dare to go alone even if it was extremely dangerous!

As for why he chose two adventurers who were obviously of little help to him, it was partly due to Finn's strict requirements and partly because of the two men's unique skills.

They can activate skills to force themselves to the next level, but this skill can only be used on themselves.

In other words, if they encounter danger in the lower level, the two adventurers can directly return to the upper level with the dragon scales, and he... will stay in this huge dungeon.

As for why we need to bring two people, it is a safety measure. If you are unlucky and escape a wave of monsters, but then encounter a monster riot or other events in the dungeon, the last person is Orario's hope.

"...Are you all ready?"

Ignoring Grace, Finn thought for a moment, then looked at the two adventurers and asked.

"We've thought about it!"

"My family is in Orario, and I don't want them to be in danger!"

The two adventurers' answers were different, but their meanings were very consistent.

"If I remember correctly, your two special skills can jump floors, right?"

After the two of them expressed their opinions, Finn didn't say anything else, but instead asked about the information of their unique skills.

Finn knew a little about that supporter. He was at level 3 and could burst out at an extremely fast speed. Once on his way back, because of his strong belief in returning home, he gained the ability to cross the dungeon floors. However, this ability had an upper limit and could only go up to five floors, and the skill was activated randomly.

Therefore, he helped the clan a lot during the expedition. As for the priest, Finn was actually not very reassured.

This was a new face, having just joined the clan less than half a month ago. Finn had only seen his skills on the application form, so he had some impression of him.

"Well, I can jump up one level and take one person with me."

The adventurer nodded and briefly introduced his skills.

Finn gritted his teeth when he heard he could bring someone.

If only one person can be taken away... then the only option is another adventurer who has the skill to jump over floors. As for Grace... naturally, she will be the one to be abandoned.

"Our plan is complete. I'll lead the formation in the front. If there's any danger, they'll take care of the dragon scales."

Seeing Finn's silence, Grace understood what Finn was thinking. In order to prevent Finn from having any more thoughts and causing casualties in the expedition group, she quickly spoke.

Finn had no other choice but to nod and say nothing more. (Li Qianhao)

"Then we'll be off."

Grace felt bad seeing Finn like this, but he was making sacrifices for Orario. Besides, what if he got lucky?

We are now preparing for the worst. What if he can return to the 39th floor safely?

Although Grace thought so in his heart, he also understood that the danger of this mission was needless to say, not to mention the ever-changing dungeon.

After saying goodbye, Grace carried his double axes and left with the two adventurers.

"Safe travels."

Finn also came back to his senses at this time. After giving some instructions, he watched the three people walk towards the entrance to the lower level.

....

Chapter 407: Cave, undiscovered area!

"Teacher, is there really a hot spring down here?"

"Don't worry, just dig it."

In a corner of the 39th floor, Nakano Yuu quickly found a spacious meadow with the help of [Cut Slope] and [Grace of the Lucky Saint].

You can't tell whether there is a hot spring below just by [Cut]. You can only see the various conditions by [Cut]. Now the area under Nakano Yu's feet is [hollow] and [high temperature].

As for why it is Lefiya who is digging the hole now instead of Nakano Yu, we have to mention Lefiya's enthusiasm.

After hearing that there was a hot spring under her feet, the girl ran back to the Loki Expedition camp happily. When she came back, she brought a shovel as long as her arm and started playing with it without waiting for him to say anything.

Seeing that Lefiya was so excited, Nakano Yu didn't want to interrupt the girl's enthusiasm, so he let Lefiya dig for a while.

However, Lefiya is still a girl. Although she is a LV4 adventurer, as a magician, Lefiya's physical fitness is not very strong. She had only dug a half-meter deep pit, and sweat broke out all over her body.

"Alright, alright, stop digging, 927. If we keep digging like this, we don't know how long it will take to find it."

Seeing that Lefiya was really tired, Nakano Yu stopped teasing her and raised his finger. The [Wind] blew the girl out of the pit.

After using [Cut] to remove the fatigue status from Lefiya, Nakano Yu easily created a small hurricane.

The small hurricane was light blue in color and about half the size of a human.

After condensing the small hurricane, Aisi, who was good at using wind magic, immediately came over and stared at the hurricane in the boy's hand. Although there was no expression on her face, she was very envious of Nakano Yu's ability to create a hurricane so easily.

But Ais knew that Nakano Yu's magic was not something she could learn.

A long time ago, Ai Si tried to cast magic like Nakano Yuu, but even though the magic power in her body was consumed, there was no reaction at all. After that, Ai Si tried many times, but it was always the same, as if something was restraining her.

"Want to learn? I can teach you later."

Seeing Ai Si coming over on her own, which was rare for him, Nakano Yu was a little surprised. When he brought Ai Si and Lefiya to find the hot spring, Ai Si had been following behind without saying a word, just looking at him and Lefiya. Now that she came over on her own initiative, Nakano Yu could guess that this girl was interested in the wind.

If Ais wants to learn, Nakano Yu can teach her, and he can also experiment on Ais.

Regarding the previous changes to Lefiya's [Grace], Nakano Yu wanted to try whether he could directly change Lefiya's attributes and levels. If possible, then it would be a BUG in his world of Dicuo.

However, Nakano Yuu did not hold high hopes for this idea. Hestia had said before that the main function of [Favour] was to record. If Hestia had not lied to him, or if Hestia did not have a deep understanding of [Favour], then this idea would most likely be impossible.

But I have to try it anyway, since I have nothing to do.

In response to the boy's question, Ai Si didn't say anything, but just nodded heavily.

"Stay back first, don't get affected."

Nakano Yu rubbed Ais's head and said that, without waiting for Ais and Lefiya to reply, [Wind] lifted them up and placed them some distance behind the boy.

After making sure that the two girls would not be affected, Nakano Yu casually threw the small hurricane in his hand into the hole that Lefiya had just dug.

"Hoohoo!"

The strong wind blew down, instantly stirring up a cloud of dust.

Under Nakano Yu's control, Hurricane drilled hard into the ground, and soon a hill of soil piled up next to the pit.

"Ok?"

At this moment, Nakano Yu seemed to sense something and raised his eyebrows.

"boom!!!"

Before Nakano Yu could stop the hurricane, a loud explosion sounded from the pit.

As the dust rose, a big pit suddenly appeared in the sight of the three people.

"Um...did they dig through the floor?"

Looking at the big pit that appeared in front of the boy, Lefiya's face turned pale and she couldn't help muttering.

Digging through the floor means that monsters on the lower floor can follow the gap to the 39th safe floor.

If that's the case, then the 39th floor is no longer safe. If the Adventurer's Guild investigates... we're doomed!

Thinking of this, Lefiya couldn't help but worry about Nakano Yu.

Ais, who was beside Lefiya, was much calmer. She looked at the big hole, walked forward and said:

"It's not that the floors have been dug through, it's that there are undiscovered areas."

"Undiscovered...area?"

Hearing Ais's words, Lefiya was stunned. The safe level was arguably the most fully excavated part of the dungeon, but there were still undiscovered areas within the safe level?!

"Could it be that there's a hot spring on the first floor?!"

Thinking about it, Lefiya immediately moved closer to take a look, but when she got closer, what appeared in her sight was a huge cave.

The cave looks very large from the entrance, and it emits a faint blue light, which looks extremely magical to the naked eye.

"There's work down there."

Ai Si's ears trembled slightly, and she spoke in a very firm tone.

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure suddenly flashed past the cave entrance.

....

Chapter 408: The Heretic Hiding in the Dungeon

"Eh?! Was that a monster just now?!"

The figure suddenly shook her, and Lefiya's face became nervous. She dropped the shovel in her hand, reached behind her, and pulled out her [Fairy Dust].

"It was too fast and I couldn't see it clearly."

Ai Si's expression was serious. The figure just now was so fast that even she only saw a shadow.

"It's hardly a monster. I'll go down and take a look. You guys... just wait here for me. Don't call anyone else over yet."

Unlike Ais, Nakano Yuu looked a little strange. After muttering something, he looked at Ais and Lefiya and gave them an instruction.

"Yes, I got it, teacher!"

Lefiya nodded heavily. She now had 100% confidence in Nakano Yu's ability and agreed without hesitation.

Ai Si looked at Nakano Yuu without saying anything, but the meaning in her eyes was very clear.

She wanted to go down with Nakano Yu to take a look.

Seeing that Ai Si didn't reply, Nakano Yuu also understood what this girl was thinking, and had no choice but to persuade her:

"I'm just going down to check on the situation and avoid any unnecessary danger. Aisi, wait here for me to come back. I'll be back soon."

"...be safe."

The boy's words filled her ears. Even though Ai Si wanted to follow him, she did not insist. She was worried that her strength would hinder Nakano Yuu's progress. Exploring new areas was no joke. If she caused trouble for Nakano Yuu, Ai Si herself would not want to do that.

After all, after the battle with Dark Udaos, Ais deeply understood that her strength was still too weak. If she insisted on following, Nakano Yu would agree, but could she really help Nakano Yu?

After pondering for a while, Ai Si nodded slightly, gave Nakano Yu a few words of advice, and said nothing more.
