Chapter 132 I Never Expected a Day When I Lied About My Level

When Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying returned to the surface with Finn and the others, it was already five days later...

As the little human hero said: Although our group can use those 'vertical caves' multiple times to shorten the journey and thus greatly improve the efficiency of our progress, when it comes to the return trip, we can only take the 'regular route'.

Naturally, the latter stage takes much longer than the former.

Incidentally, the return trip was completed within five days, and that's the speed of progress for a 'small team' comprised entirely of elites.

If it were an expeditionary force... it would take even longer.

As for why Ling Shu didn't use the teleportation anchor point to return to the surface in advance... well, he actually returns to the surface every day.

After all, they need to transport supplies...

However, even putting the job aside, anyone with a modicum of emotional intelligence should know that they shouldn't try to make things easier by running away first.

and……

“Yingying, and brother-san, come to our place (Twilight Mansion) to play tomorrow too.”

In front of the Tower of Babel, inside the 'Central Plaza', Tiona was waving goodbye to Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying. "It's a promise, right? We'll continue telling the story of Charcoal Boy next time... I'm really looking forward to the next installment."

See, if you slip away at a time like this, it's practically the same as suddenly stopping updating after five consecutive nights of work.

If things go wrong, this could be the end of our friendship... cough cough.

Okay, enough chit-chat.

As for Ling Shu, there were other reasons why he still chose to travel with Finn and the others.

For example, since Xiao has been staying on the 49th floor to 'practice', and the strongest combatant around him has been busy with other things for a long time, it is always good to gain experience remotely while earning some 'extra money' with a group of big shots.

Since Xiao isn't around, even the 37th floor will be difficult to conquer.

in this way……

It maintains interpersonal relationships while also gaining experience points... Only a fool wouldn't do something that achieves so many benefits.

In short, after Ying accepted Tiona's invitation, the rest of Tiona's group said goodbye to the siblings and left the 'Central Square' together...

"..."

It's the same place, the same tree.

A burly pig-man once again 'hid' there in a completely useless way.

At this moment, as he slowly approached...

"Long time no see, Mr. Otto."

Ling Shu (Kong) took the initiative to greet the other party, "I heard you went on a 'solo expedition' before, why didn't I run into you in the dungeon?"

Regarding this question...

"I took other routes."

The towering man spoke in a steady voice, "Moreover, Lady Freya instructed that when you are acting with Finn and the others, 'we' should not disturb you... I am merely following divine will."

"Hmm, I see."

Ling Shu secretly gave that beautiful older sister a thumbs up in his heart.

Indeed, while Finn and the others treated Luminosity very well and were also quite friendly to him (Ku), if it were anyone else from Freya's Familia... especially the 'cadres', they would likely be glaring and ready to fight the moment they met.

After all, several years ago, during that 'misunderstanding,' Riveria was almost killed by the 'Level 1 Adventurers' from her own faction.

It's fine if the parties involved don't show up, but if someone with no emotional intelligence steps forward... then Kong and Ying will have to experience what it means to be 'a rat in a bellows'.

Furthermore, although Ling Shu currently belongs to Freya... oh, no, his (original form) belongs to the 'Frigga Familia'.

In short, among Freya's Familia, the only person he is most familiar with is Freya herself, the main god. He hasn't even talked to Ota, who is right in front of him, many times.

He didn't recognize any of the others.

So, to be precise, rather than saying that Ling Shu has a sense of belonging to the 'Freya Familia', it's more accurate to say that he only cares about his older sister, the goddess who has helped him a lot over the years.

Under these circumstances, Freya's arrangement of 'divine will' seems very thoughtful.

give it a like!

at the moment……

"Are you here today to relay a message from your older sister as well?"

It has to be said that [Fierce Warrior] Ota is at least a Lv.7, but this martial artist, who is known as the 'ultimate weapon of the city,' has almost turned into a human telephone booth.

There was almost never any other reason for meeting Ling Shu.

today……

"Speaking of which..."

Ling Shu (Kong) asked in a puzzled tone, "When I returned to the surface yesterday, the day before yesterday, and the day before that, I didn't see my older sister on the top floor of the Tower of Babel... Where did she go?"

"Lady Freya has very important matters to attend to and just returned to the Tower of Babel half an hour ago."

As Ota spoke, he merely glanced around, which scared away all the adventurers nearby.

After confirming that no one else was around, he continued, "You can ask Lady Freya about the specifics in person. I... you're right, I'm just here to deliver a message."

"Go on, don't keep Lady Freya waiting."

"Okay, sure."

Ling Shu (Kong) nodded, "Thank you for your hard work."

After leaving a brief but polite greeting, he left with Ying.

At this moment, watching him and her walk together towards the magic stone elevator located on one side of the entrance to the bottom of the Tower of Babel, until their figures completely disappeared...

"He...has reached a new level."

Ota thought to himself in a deep voice, "Very good, I have not disappointed my goddess's expectations."

"We must not let our guard down in the future."

******

A few minutes later...

On Ling Shu's side, after he (Kong) and Ying arrived at the upper level of the Tower of Babel by taking the magic stone elevator, they were too lazy to continue climbing the stairs. They simply found a secluded corner and teleported there, instantly arriving at the top of the Tower of Babel.

The two had barely settled down...

“Now that Finn and the others know about the ‘teleportation anchor,’ once the news spreads, I won’t need to go through all this trouble anymore. I can just ‘disappear’ whenever and wherever I want.”

With these thoughts in mind, Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying walked out of the secret room together.

Before long, they arrived at Freya's top-floor apartment with floor-to-ceiling windows, where she usually stayed at home.

Right now, this goddess is still sitting on that luxurious throne, legs crossed... well, this time she's not drinking red wine from a wine glass.

Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying arrived...

"came back?"

"Ah."

It's mostly about everyday family conversations.

Freya looked at Ling Shu (Kong) with a slight smile, "It seems you've made quite a bit of progress this time."

"Correct."

Ling Shu (Kong) pointed to himself, "In this form, I should have already trained my Lv.3 stage [basic ability] values ​​to the level of 'sss-1999'."

"Since we couldn't achieve the 'ex' rating this time, we can just find an excuse (a great achievement) to announce that we've been promoted to Lv.4."

That's... really terrifying.

But that's just how it is.

Currently, thanks to Xiao-sama's efforts, Sora and Luminous have both reached Lv.40 in Genshin Impact, which is essentially equivalent to the combat power of Blessing Level Lv.4.

However, Freya did not update his/her [ability value], so it is still at the value of 'Grace Level Lv.3, all attributes SSS-1999'.

In this situation...

Have you thought of what 'excuse' you'll use?

Freya narrowed her eyes and said meaningfully, "Right now, you... or rather 'you all,' you are the most watched super rookies in the entire Orario, and before this, you were publicly announced to have advanced to Lv.3 by defeating the 'Two-Headed Dragon'."

"With such outstanding examples preceding us, an ordinary 'great achievement' will easily be noticed by outsiders."

Hearing her say that...

“I originally planned to wait a while before trying to defeat Udeus, but a few days ago, that floor master was killed by Finn and his group. I will have to wait another three months before it can hatch.”

"As for Barol... I'm not even considering him."

Actually, when Xiao was 'practicing' on the 49th floor, he did take advantage of his ability to 'teleport' to observe the 'Evil Eye Demon King' from afar.

At that moment, with just one glance, the young immortal instantly confirmed with his thousands of years of combat experience that he was no match for him at this stage.

After all, it was a terrifying existence that even Ota couldn't kill, and was forced to retreat halfway through the fight.

It's important to know that the higher the level of favor, the more difficult it becomes to perform 'challenges beyond your level'.

Currently, the Traveler Twins and Xiao are both Genshin Impact level 40, so they can only challenge adventurers at level 5 at most.

And it's not even a sure thing.

Only when he (Kong) and Ying have their [ability values] updated by Freya, and begin to accumulate further at the Lv.4 grace level, until they once again reach the full 'sss-1999' rating, can they truly be considered to be on par with Lv.5.

In other words, at this point, no strategy is needed to defeat the two-headed dragon.

Just confront them head-on.

Moreover, as long as the illness doesn't recur, it's a sure win.

Speaking of which, the reason why Ling Shu and Ying can only obtain the 'ex' Transcendent rating each time their main body's Grace level increases is because during the above stage, they 'accumulated' experience that exceeded the calculations of the Genshin Impact system.
