A Mistaken Encounter: The Hero of the World

"Okay, Loki. Let's talk about business first." Dionysus stopped the cold situation from developing in time and actively mobilized the atmosphere on the field.

"We now know that there are remnants of the dark faction lurking in the city, but I guess the lair of those weirdos is probably in the underground city... It's really hard to find them this way."

"You weakling, are these the only discouraging words you can say?"

"Loki." Dionysus smiled bitterly and tried to bring the conversation back to the topic. "The enemy dared to call himself [Urban Destroyer (Enyo)]. This can be regarded as a declaration of war against all of us gods."

"Speaking of which, on the 24th floor, the remnants of the dark faction tried to move the black cage containing the Piranha Plant..." Hermes' eyes swept over the expressions of the two fellow gods.

"I see those cages were not moved to the ground through the entrance of the Tower of Babel..."

"So the Piranha Plants that were transported to the surface earlier were able to hide from everyone—"

The three gods exchanged glances.

"That is to say——"

"That's right——"

"In addition to the Tower of Babel, there are other entrances and exits to the dungeon."

"Serven is really reliable."

In the dense jungle environment, Serven swung his knife to kill a large number of poisonous maggots again, and once again built a wind wall to block the venom.

Finn and others led the other members to escape madly.

This is the lower level of the tree maze.

Under the prompt instructions of the leader Finn, the expedition team returned directly from the ultra-deep layer in a hurry. Thanks to the second-level adventurers who understood the hard work of the clan cadres, they took the initiative to stand up, summoned up their spirits and fought bravely, avoiding putting more burdens on the cadres.

Therefore, even during a forced march, Aisi and the others were well trained.

The clan advanced smoothly along the way, and soon they had walked through more than half of the floors.

But right here in the tree maze, the [Loki clan] suffered a Waterloo, and they were badly tortured by the poisonous maggots.

Poisonous Maggots are one of the most dangerous "Toxic Abnormal Attack" monsters. Although their individual combat capabilities are very weak, the poison they spray from their mouths or secrete from their skin is so toxic that adventurers with "Abnormal Resistance" below G cannot resist it. Moreover, when they appear, they often appear as a group of hundreds of individuals - they have the terrifying title of "Poisonous Graveyard".

At this time, the number of poisonous maggots attacking the [Loki Family] was so large that Aisi and others began to doubt their own eyes.

"Such a large number——an abnormal situation!?"

“It’s the poisonous demon maggot…! Is this bad!?”

The monster proliferation brought by the "Monster Feast" is not an instantaneous large-scale surge, but a long-term continuous proliferation over a large area of ​​the entire maze. Now the surge is still the poisonous demon maggots acting in groups, and the number of monsters is rising sharply.

The team members ran wildly, supporting their companions who were unable to fight. The poisonous maggot group not only intercepted the [Loki Clan] from the front and rear passages, but hundreds of disgusting poisonous maggots also crawled along the ceiling and walls, chasing them relentlessly.

Serven was the only one left to cover the retreat. With the skill [Immune to All Poisons], he completely ignored the toxicity of the poisonous maggots.

Ai Si who used the magic [Wind Sprint], Bert who used his kicking skills with all his might, and Grace who held up a large shield were responsible for resisting the venom, while the sisters Tiona and Tione were responsible for dragging away the members whose skin turned purple.

Livilia also used the magic [Ecstasy·Fimbulwinter] to freeze the entire passage, creating a moment of respite, but a new group of poisonous maggots soon joined from several branch roads.

“No, it’s never ending…!”

Alicia and Lefiya were both using magic to reduce the number of enemies, but seeing the continuous reinforcements of the poisonous maggots, their faces turned pale, and they immediately recalled the endless battle on the 58th floor.

The few remaining "magic swords" were soon used up.

"Finn, Lakta and the others are in bad condition! They need treatment quickly!"

Tiona and Tione held the rabbit girl and the male member who were groaning in pain, and spoke to Finn anxiously.

"Captain, the detoxification items are running out." Raul said anxiously.

"Let's go to the 18th floor. Drag those who can't move away! Everyone rush over there!!"

The blacksmiths of the Hephaestus Familia who were traveling with them also screamed one after another. They were grabbed by the arms or feet by the members of the Loki Familia and dragged away at full speed.

Along the way, other monsters were also poisoned by the poisonous maggots and rolled on the ground.

As humans and monsters alike screamed in agony, the Loki Familia, carrying or dragging a large number of the wounded, broke through the lower area and escaped to the 18th floor.

On the eighteenth floor, in a corner of the southern forest area, near the entrance to the seventeenth floor, the [Loki Family] built a temporary camp here.

Inside the tent with the curtains drawn for ventilation, on the grass outside, and beside the trunks of large trees, many adventurers and blacksmiths lay on their backs, gritting their teeth and enduring. Parts of their bodies had turned purple, and they were tortured by the poison and were sweating coldly.

Including supporters, many low-level members were poisoned by the poisonous maggots, and their number reached more than one-third of the expedition team. The troops had to stop at the 18th floor.

The sounds of unbearable pain could be heard everywhere.

"I didn't expect that at this last moment, there would be such trouble waiting for us." Finn couldn't help but sigh.

"The members who didn't have enough Abnormal Resistance and were poisoned are now unable to move. The blacksmith is also in trouble. Only Tsubaki is fine."

"After going to the deepest part of the dungeon, it's impossible for us to return safely."

Grace and Livilia's tone was also somewhat heavy.

"Livilia, how is the treatment going?"

"The elixir has been basically used up during our expedition. Now we don't have enough elixir. Besides, even with me, there are only a few wizards and healers in our clan who can use detoxification magic. Not to mention the poison of the poisonous demon maggots."

Livilia rubbed her brows. She had been casting healing spells and her mental strength was almost exhausted.

"Yes, the poison of the poisonous demon maggots can only be completely cured by using a special antidote, otherwise only Amid's advanced magic can completely cure it."

"It seems we can only wait for Bert to come back."

The werewolf complained, "Leave this troublesome matter to me," but he had already set out last night and is now probably back on the ground, buying up the rare and expensive special antidote...

"Let Tsubaki forge indestructible weapons, plus more than thirty "magic swords", and give the dropped items to the "Hephaestus Familia" accompanying the expedition, and now we have to add special antidotes... I'm afraid the Familia will really have a hard time making ends meet."

"Let's not talk about this now," Finn said with a wry smile.

Because there were too many heavy topics, he tried to switch to something lighter. "If we sell the magic stones in Serven's room, we should be able to make up for the deficit."

"Finn, we should think of some legitimate ways." Although she knew Finn was joking, Livilia still gave a warning.

"Does Serven have magic to remove poison?"

"Yes, there is, but it can only be used by him. It would be a great help if it could also be used to treat others." Finn shook his head.

"Did you call me?" Severn, Ais and Alicia came over together.

"Nothing, mainly because Linie is so tired that she fainted. We chatted casually, and then talked about your healing magic. Unfortunately, it is a magic that is only for you. It would be better if it could help heal others."

Finn had just said it casually, but Serven suddenly fell silent.

Considering Serven's [Warrior] skill of being immune to all poisons, the detoxification effect in [Meditation] is a bit useless. If it can only heal himself, it is indeed too narrow in some situations.

Serven went over the idea in his mind. To be honest, he had never experimented with whether this was a 3.0 single-person or group effect, and he didn't know if it would work.

He closed his eyes.

"【Focus on your inner self】." He was suspended in the air in a cross-legged position, with a vibrant green factor emerging from his body. He looked at Ai Si, who was closest to him, but Ai Si did not have the green factor.

He closed his eyes again, imagining Aisi's figure in his mind, imagining sharing some of his healing factor with Aisi.

His back felt slightly hot.

Ais opened her eyes wide in surprise, and the same fluorescent green factor as Serven appeared on her body.

Serven didn't open his eyes, but clapped his hands.

These green factors, like fireflies, spread to Alicia, Livilia, Finn and Grace.

“…Successful!?” Alicia exclaimed.

Serven opened his eyes and smiled at everyone, "Success!"

Livilia's eyes remained on Serven.

She has always liked exploring the unknown, and she left the Elf Forest to explore the unknown world.

Now that an adventurer who completely broke the world's conventions was right in front of her, she was indeed a little curious—

However, she also had a guess - [World's Hero], this skill should be the reason. As the darling of the world, Serven was favored by the world.

"Does this skill of yours always have multiple effects?" Finn asked with a smile.

"I don't know either. Today is the first time we're doing this kind of experiment." Serven replied and came into the tent.

“【Focus on your inner self】!”

The members were a little confused as they watched Serven suddenly come into the tent, posing in an inexplicable suspended posture and chanting an inexplicable spell.

But soon they discovered that many green spots of light were coming out from Serven's body. When these spots of light came to them, they realized that their pain had been relieved a lot.

Although it cannot completely cure the poison of the poisonous maggots like other healing magic, it does alleviate their poison symptoms and has a certain healing effect.

"The pain from the wound has lessened!"

“It really doesn’t hurt that much anymore!”

"Thank you, Mr. Serven!" The team members looked at Serven gratefully and expressed their gratitude.

"It's okay." Serven shook his dizzy head. All the members in the tent were suffering from severe poisoning symptoms. The wounded in just one tent consumed a lot of his magic power.

He rested for a while and then entered the next tent.

By the evening, all the members had regained their ability to move.

They were still suffering from the severe burning pain, but at least they were not incapacitated and could walk around. They gathered in groups of three or four to talk, and from time to time they would look at a tent with gratitude.

Serven was sleeping inside - he had been healing all day and only took one break in the middle. Now his magic power was completely used up and he was "mentally exhausted".

Livilia also sat on the grass tiredly with her eyes closed to rest. She had been busy treating the wounded all day.

"Livilia, thanks to you, Linie and Serven, the team members are now in no big trouble. Do you want to go in and have a rest?" Finn said to Livilia.

"Line and Serven haven't woken up yet?"

"No, it's better to let them have a good sleep."

"Okay, I'll go in too."

Because of Serven's joining, the wounded were treated in advance and the atmosphere of the clan became relaxed again.

"Shift change, shift change, boys, come and take a break too," Tiona shouted as she took over the guard duty.

"Okay, let's go take a shower too..."

"Although we are always completely separated like this, I still want to peek at the girls taking cold showers..."

"Idiot, do you want to die? If you offend the elves or the Amazons, you will be cut off..."

"Hmm?!" The member suddenly felt a chill between his legs, but he still said stubbornly, "...What do you mean by cut?...I, I must have chopped it!"

"You?" He was soon met with contemptuous looks from his companions. "By the way, Mr. Serven seems to be able to use this word... I'm so envious."

"Mr. Serven's..." Raul also joined the boys' conversation, "It's a bit too exaggerated."

"Because you are small, Raul..."

"Where is it small?! Come on, let's compare it now!!!" When it comes to the issue of male dignity, Raul never gives in.

------------

Serven slept until the early morning. After he had enough sleep and regained his energy, he walked out of the tent. Since everyone was still asleep, the clan’s residence was particularly quiet.

Thinking that he hadn't taken a shower for several days, his back felt itchy, so Serven walked straight towards the pool that stretched out from the forest.

Among the springs or rivers on each safety floor, the water quality on the 18th floor is the best. The crystal spring water flowing from the deep floor is more beautiful and clear than surface water, and it can also relieve physical fatigue if used as drinking water.

So comfortable——

The cool water wrapped around his whole body. Serven lay on his back on the water and closed his eyes comfortably.

The sound of water splashing as Serven moved his feet came faintly, and the water hitting the rocks flowed gently over his ears and skin.

It's so refreshing.

somebody is coming?

Riveria?!

Serven quickly turned his back, and Livilia, who came to the side of the pool, quickly noticed Serven in the pool. She saw his broad shoulders, strong back and the muscular lines at the waist, and quickly withdrew her gaze.
