Chapter 131 Finn's 'Golden Finger' Makes a Move Again

That night's watch... well, nobody could sleep.

These are supposed to be a group of seasoned adventurers who have long since mastered the 'skills to fall asleep quickly,' but now they're all suffering from insomnia...

I really have to thank that silly little sister →_→

In short, eight hours passed without stopping...

"..."

In front of the dark gold cabin, Finn, holding the 'Spear of Domination', looked at his two or three band members with dark circles under their eyes and rarely showed such a speechless expression.

Oh, he has some dark circles under his eyes too, but that's alright then.

Speaking of which...

"Hey? Bert, why do you look so listless too?"

Tiona, being straightforward, immediately asked when she sensed something was wrong, "Didn't you run out early yesterday morning?"

Seeing the suspicious look on her face...

"Stop being so long-winded~"

The werewolf youth looked somewhat off, his eyes darting around. After a long while, he finally managed to stammer out, "You were muttering to yourself all night, which disturbed me."

"Oh, I see. I'm sorry."

One dares to speak, the other dares to believe.

Tiony glanced at his silly sister beside him, shook his head, and sighed helplessly.

Then, she subconsciously glanced at her other silly sister... and her brother...

"Why are you all acting like nothing's wrong?"

Despite both staying up all night, Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying both looked energetic and seemed completely unaffected.

Regarding this...

"Although I already said it the day before yesterday, but..."

Ling Shu (Kong) spread his hands and shrugged. "Miss Tione, have you forgotten what the 'first great achievement' that Ying and I accomplished was?"

"..."

Well, after fighting for seven days and seven nights straight, with stamina that's even more exaggerated than that of the dwarves, staying up all night is really nothing.

Incidentally, during the gacha session at 4 AM today, Ling Shu received the following reward: 3 Swords Bathed in Dragon Blood.

Without a doubt, Razer immediately upgraded his three-star Genshin Impact weapon, which was originally at 'Refinement Tier 2', to 'Refinement Tier 5'.

at the moment……

"It seems like Xiao-sama has been causing trouble on the 49th floor all night."

"Let's check the experience points for running it in the background... Holy crap!!!"

Ling Shu (Kong) stood aside, and on a whim, he summoned the 'Genshin Impact System' virtual interface, which only he could see.

Then I saw...

Lv.40

Xiao, myself, and Ying have all reached the current level cap.

Furthermore, several Genshin Impact characters that have been running in the background have all been leveled up to Lv.30 or higher.

"The experience points gained from killing the Fmur Beastman are really that generous?"

Ling Shu (Kong) subconsciously looked towards the edge of the giant rock platform, at the entrance to the staircase leading to the 51st floor. "I'm starting to look forward to today's adventure."

He had just thought that...

As a result, next to it...

"Let's cancel the rehearsal of attempting the 58th floor."

"???"

Finn's simple words left Ling Shu (Kong) stunned on the spot.

It wasn't just him...

"Huh~~~~~?"

Tiona couldn't help but draw out, "Cancel? We finally made it this far!"

Hearing her complain like that...

"There's nothing we can do; our mental state isn't exactly great right now."

Finn shrugged. "Although staying up all night is a common occurrence for us, you should know what it's like from the 52nd floor downwards... Faced with that kind of harsh environment, we must ensure that we are all in 'optimal condition' before we can confidently proceed with the raid."

"We are clearly not up to that standard right now."

"Although we can start resting now, perhaps in a few hours we will meet the minimum requirements to continue our journey."

"But even with thorough preparation in the past, we still couldn't conquer the 58th floor. Now, with most of our members in poor condition, it will only be more difficult to conquer it."

"Moreover, this was not an official 'expedition' in the first place. We did not report to the 'guild' in advance; we just planned to conduct a 'preliminary exercise'."

"The main purpose is ultimately to help Kong and Ying establish a teleportation anchor point in preparation for the next formal expedition."

"So now that the core mission has been accomplished, there's no need to force things anymore."

Without a doubt, Finn chose a more cautious approach.

This is quite similar to Ling Shu's line of thinking.

At present...

"It seems that we must first establish a rule before the next joint expedition."

Riveria sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation. "Fire is not allowed to tell stories during the expedition."

"Ha, ha ha~"

Yingmei scratched her head and laughed awkwardly, trying to get away with being cute.

Then look at Tiona... This Amazonian girl originally wanted to try harder, but she was directly dragged away by her hot-tempered older sister, who is a 'leader's fan'.

The others naturally had no objection to Finn's decision.

Even Ais, who was "talked to" by Ying the night before last, is not too impulsive now.

Of course, the abrupt end of the journey left everyone feeling somewhat regretful.

only……

"Finn, did you really cancel the planned 'rehearsal' for that reason?"

While the others went back into the dark gold cabin to pack their equipment, Rivera and Finn walked away and had a private conversation.

Upon hearing this…

"As expected, I couldn't hide it from you."

Finn gave a wry smile. "Adventurers need to be fully prepared to challenge the unknown, and we are not in good condition right now... That is indeed one of the reasons."

"But ultimately, the more decisive reason is..."

He raised his right hand.

At this moment, he felt a series of stinging sensations coming from the tip of his thumb.

For Finn, this was almost a harbinger of impending doom.

Moreover, this time it was particularly strong.

and so……

"I choose to trust my intuition."

Holding the 'Command Spear', he turned his head to look at the entrance to the staircase not far away. "Now, if we were to challenge and clear the 58th floor, it would be very dangerous... no, something bad would definitely happen."

Adventurers cannot go on adventures (without preparation).

As the current leader of the Loki Familia, Finn must consider all aspects of the situation.

Since Grace is not currently in Orario, Riveria, as the vice-captain, will have to fill the vacancy.

therefore……

"So that's how it is."

Riveria nodded in agreement. "Indeed, this 'rehearsal' doesn't necessarily have to happen. There's no need to take unnecessary risks for something so 'unimportant'."

"Then let's leave it at that."

She turned and walked towards the dark gold-colored cottage. "The return journey will take several days to complete."

"It's rare to be free from other pressures, so I can finally listen to Ying continue telling the story in peace."

"Heh~"

Finn smiled at Riveria's words. "That's true."

******

As the leader of this squad, Finn undoubtedly wielded considerable influence.

Upon hearing his instructions, even though Tiona was reluctant, she only complained a few times before cooperating with her companions and embarking on the return journey.

Not long after Yingmei removed the dark gold house and the group left the 50th floor...

"..."

A mysterious figure arrived near the 'teleportation anchor point'.

It seemed very curious about this new thing, but after a cursory observation, it hesitated and did not do anything extra.

of course……

Even if it really wanted to do something, it would all be in vain.

After all, the power that allowed the teleportation anchor to take shape in the current world...
