After a period of recovery, Shirou's condition gradually returned to its peak. After all, he possessed the divine skill known as Independent Action:
Independent Action:
Magic power recovery speed is significantly increased.
Stamina and injury recovery speed are significantly increased.
Divine Blessing can be automatically updated.
Under the effect of this skill, Shirou had mostly recovered while unconscious. Compared to him, who had fainted, the others were actually more seriously injured. However, their injuries were definitely lighter than in the original story. As a result, the pressure on their dical supplies was much less severe than in the original.
"However, what's more concerning now is the matter of the Fallen Spirit." Finn, sitting in a passage resting, said seriously to his seated executives. "From the information we currently have, our enemy should be a Fallen Spirit located on a deeper floor. She can send her clones to other places via orbs."
"As it stands, her goal seems to be to send orbs to the surface and then use the Fallen Spirit's clones to destroy Orario."
Hearing Finn's analysis, everyone grew serious. After all, at this point in ti, no one understood the danger of the Fallen Spirit better than them. If a monster of that caliber appeared on the surface, it could very well lead to Orario's destruction. Such magic was simply too terrifying.
"So, we probably need to return to the surface quickly and inform Loki about this." Everyone nodded in agreent with Finn's idea. Indeed, only Loki could likely make a decision about sothing like this.
However, Shirou had a different opinion. "I have no objection to notifying Loki as soon as possible, but we don't necessarily need to rush back. Although this matter seems dangerous, it's not an imdiate concern."
Hearing Shirou's differing opinion, everyone turned their gaze to him. "According to our previous information, the new species increase their magic power by devouring the magic stones of other monsters, and then transfer this magic power to the Fallen Spirit's clones to accelerate their maturity."
"Regarding the new species, we actually encountered them during our last expedition. Over such a long period, with such a massive supply of magic power, the Fallen Spirit's clone finally completed its transformation upon our arrival."
"This shows how enormous the amount of magic power she needs. Such a quantity of magic power cannot be obtained on the surface in a short period. Therefore, instead of worrying too much about the future, we should think more about the present. After this expedition, our finances will likely be in trouble."
Hearing Shirou's opinion, Finn nodded slightly. "Indeed, even if Loki knows, we can't do anything about it right now."
"And the financial problem..." Looking at the collected drops around them, Finn's heart couldn't help but ache.
Although he had previously promised the Hephaestus Familia that all drops from the deep floors would belong to them after the expedition, it still pained him to hand them over now.
"But thankfully, Shirou's magic left behind the magic stones when it eliminated the monsters on the fifty-ninth floor."
"Otherwise, if it had destroyed the magic stones along with the monsters like Riveria's magic, our gains would have been even scarcer!"
"What, Finn, do you have any opinions on my magic?" Hearing Finn's lant, Riveria imdiately asked him seriously.
Finn quickly apologized. Seeing this scene, everyone burst into laughter.
"Alright, everyone's pretty much recovered, right? In that case, let's start our return journey!" After a short rest, everyone embarked on the journey back to the fiftieth floor.
---
Without any major incidents, everyone successfully returned to the fiftieth floor. Upon learning that Finn and the others had successfully conquered the fifty-ninth floor, everyone cheered excitedly. This ant that their Loki Familia would undoubtedly be recorded in Orario's history. And they, too, were a part of this glory.
After resting for a day on the fiftieth floor, the main force of the Loki Familia began their return to the surface. However, this journey was not smooth. Along the way, they encountered a monster feast of poisonous demon maggots. These monsters are communal and contain potent toxins.
During the sudden attack of the poisonous demon maggots, many mbers of the Loki Familia were poisoned and fell into critical condition. To ensure the safety of their mbers, everyone had no choice but to continuously break through and escape from there. After all, if they waited to slowly kill these monsters, the poisoned Familia mbers would likely die from the venom.
Eventually, they stopped on the eighteenth floor. Here, with a determination to suffer losses, Finn dispatched Tiona and Tione to Rivira Town to gather specific antidotes for the poisonous demon maggots. With these dicines and continuous treatnt from Riveria and others, the injured mbers' lives were barely salvaged.
Of course, as a price, this exacerbated the Loki Familia's already difficult financial situation. Also, due to the need for dicine, Finn required soone to return to the surface to collect enough antidotes. This task naturally fell to the swift-footed Bete.
"Besides Bete, we should also send a few more people back to collect so food. After all, it'll probably take a while for Bete and the others to collect the antidotes and return."
"Our finances are already in trouble; if we also eat Rivira's food, we might be close to bankruptcy." Hearing Shirou's suggestion, Finn couldn't help but get a headache.
Currently, the financial problem was the biggest difficulty the Loki Familia faced. "Now we can only follow Shirou's suggestion. Until those companions return, we'll collect ingredients ourselves on the eighteenth floor and cook our own als!"
"Understood!"
After leaving Finn's tent, Shirou found Raul and entrusted him with the task of transporting food. Raul quickly arranged for mbers of the second squad to transport the provisions.
After arranging these things, Shirou, strolling idly through the camp, encountered female Familia mbers warning the male Familia mbers.
"You all listen to . If we catch you peeking, I don't need to tell you what will happen!"
"Who would peek? How boring!"
"Exactly, exactly!"
"Hmph, good if you don't!"
Listening to their conversation, Shirou imdiately understood that the female mbers planned to collectively go to a nearby stream to bathe. Beforehand, they were specifically warning the male mbers not to peek.
Thinking of this, Shirou couldn't help but smile. In the Loki Familia, it was definitely a dynamic where won were stronger than n. The reason for this was entirely Loki's personal preferences. In the Loki Familia, the number of females far exceeded that of males.
And every single one was a beauty. This left the male mbers of the Loki Familia with no room for resistance.
Just then, a female Familia mber who was warning other male mbers, upon seeing Shirou, suddenly smiled and said, "Of course, if it's Shirou, we wouldn't mind!"
"You can even co with us!"
"Exactly, exactly!"
"Shirou, of course, you can!"
Looking at the girls suddenly flocking around him, Shirou could only continuously smile apologetically. Currently, in the Loki Familia, his treatnt had surpassed Finn's, making him the most popular male in the Familia.
Looking at the beautiful girls squeezing around him, Shirou couldn't help but sigh, "I haven't even done the pole vault yet, how did you all beco like this!"
This situation once again made Shirou sincerely feel the terrifying nature of his 'woman trouble' affliction.
Hiss, how terrifying!
