Half an hour later, the large troops gathered at the corridor leading to [the 59th floor].
Finn, who was leading the expedition team at the forefront, stopped suddenly, causing all the people following him to also stop subconsciously.
"Finn...?"
"Finn, what's the matter?"
Both Riveria and Iris asked.
"No, it's just a little weird."
Finn bit his thumb, looking worried.
Then he opened his mouth slowly and expressed his concerns:
"According to the literature recorded in the union, [the 59th floor] should be a cold current layer, and the temperature should be about the same as the current [58th floor], but..."
"But you didn't feel the cold air at the entrance of the cave, did you?" Iris shook the giant ax in his hand.
Finn's words had to make him nervous.
Because every time there is danger, Finn's thumb can't stop the pain, without exception!
Obviously, it's the same this time.
Not only him, but even Riveria had a serious expression on his face.
But Zhou Fangwu said: "But we have to move forward no matter what, don't we? Otherwise, why would we go on an expedition?"
【Loki Familia】Expedition, the purpose is to refresh the number of floors and explore more unknown areas.
So they'll move on anyway.
The same goes for Zhou Fangwu.
He had a hunch that the weirdos Uranus had mentioned before would definitely ambush them on the next floor.
【Go ahead to dangers】
...that's the only sentence that can describe it.
"Yeah, I have to go."
Finn licked his lips.
The facts are just as what Zhou Fangwu said.
As the head of the group, he carried the orders of his own God, and at the same time, as a [hero], how could he back down at the last moment?
It goes against his beliefs.
And because it is no longer the cold current layer, the front is a field that even the gods have not reached.
It's [unknown]!
Doesn't this entice them all the more?
"Everyone—sort out your equipment and set off in 3 minutes."
After giving this order, everyone started to follow it.
After 3 minutes, enter the corridor.
The corridor is very long, its length is almost longer than the [50th floor], giving people a feeling as if they have left the dungeon.
The expressions of everyone walking in the corridor are dignified.
Because the deeper you go, the warmer the temperature is, which is completely opposite to the current [58th floor].
Until, everyone passed through the corridor.
A white light flashed, and a tropical rainforest appeared in front of everyone.
The familiar scenery made everyone puzzled.
"This is... dense forest?!"
"Looks like the [flowerpot] of [Layer 24]?"
"It should be exactly the same."
Everyone is surprised.
Logically speaking, even if this layer is not the cold current layer, it will not become the dense forest map of the [24th floor] after all.
However, the facts are in front of us.
They couldn't explain it either, so they had to attribute it to the strange structure of the dungeon.
"Finn."
"Ah, I know."
Finn, who was the head of the regiment, then responded, and then waved his right hand to issue an order.
"Everyone—forward!"
Everyone continued to move forward with solemn expressions.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the scenery on this floor always makes people feel a little awkward, as if it has been forcibly remodeled.
It should be a layer covered by dense forest, but there are always 1 or 2 bare surfaces.
This feeling, like being too hasty, caused [the texture was not pasted] and exposed a piece of ground.
Everyone was still tense.
While walking forward, open the formation, and always be alert to the dangers lurking around.
Zhou Fangwu deliberately broke the rear for them at the end.
But to everyone's surprise, after advancing for about an hour in the dense forest, there was still no monster appearing.
No danger was encountered along the way.
This cannot be the same as the [18th layer] security layer, Zhou Fangwu can conclude.
That can only show that this layer has a special time to happen.
【perception】
Subconsciously, he activated this skill.
And with all his strength, he scanned the entire layer.
In his perception, the area of this layer is not large.
However, there is an extremely special existence.
It is located in the center of the floor, and the aura on its body is very terrifying, and there are densely packed insect monsters crouching around it.
I saw it roll up an insect monster with its tentacles, and then...
Eat it!
Together with the magic stone!
No, to be precise, it is eating magic stones!
"this is?!"
Zhou Fangwu frowned.
In this tense and dignified atmosphere, anyone's subtle movements will attract the attention of others, let alone Zhou Fangwu, a special person.
Finn asked aloud, "What's the matter, Wu."
"A special event... a strange monster was found in the middle of the floor."
While speaking, Zhou Fangwu stepped forward from behind and led them forward.
Everyone pursed their lips and followed.
Half an hour later, they saw the strange monster that Zhou Fangwu had mentioned.
"What, this?"
"What's going on with that?"
"…that is?"
"It's the corpse king flower."
As the representative of the word knowledge in the family, Riveria spoke the name of the monster.
"That monster is formed by the fusion of orbs. It seems to be an enhanced species."
"Not good, this thing."
"Eating so many magic stones..."
"Well, it looks like a tough fight."
When everyone was making preparations, the monster in the center of the floor that had been devouring the magic stone suddenly stopped eating and roared loudly.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
The sound came in like a wave, getting sharper and harsher, and at the same time getting deeper and deeper into the brain.
But, more than that!
From their point of view, the upper half of the formerly bloated flower body suddenly began to have cracks.
Then it collapsed instantly, revealing the female body inside.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
As if there was no barrier from the body, the female voice that was exposed became stronger and stronger.
Even if they cover their ears desperately, it has no effect.
Everyone present was greatly affected, almost unable to stand and collapsed to the ground.
Its power is comparable to the ultrasonic waves that can kill people.
At this moment, Zhou Fangwu stood up.
"Skill - quiet and closed."
The transparent light shield spread out under his feet, enveloping all members of the expedition team and also blocking the piercing ultrasonic waves.
Everyone's expressions relaxed.
And the monster in the center of the floor seemed to stop the noise after seeing that these people were not affected.
The soundproof light shield dissipates automatically.
"You are-?!"
Aisi's eyes were obviously widened, and she looked at the monster with an expression of disbelief.
"Alia, my lovely Alia."
The monster spoke.
She looked at Ace while speaking, as if she was calling her name.
"You are, fairy... fine?!"
And Aisi also shouted out its race with a thirsty voice.
All the people present were surprised.
