Seeing this scene, Lefiya was so startled she didn't know what to say.
"Little girl, you can't chant with your eyes closed. You also need to observe your surroundings to ensure your own safety!" Merlin said to her with a smile.
"Th-thank you..." Lefiya quickly thanked him.
Merlin smiled and casually applied a few buffs to her and himself. While dodging the bugs' attacks, he taught her chanting techniques.
Seeing this scene, Lin Che couldn't help but smile and say, "He really likes being a teacher, just like Roxy!"
Immediately, he, Morgan, and Artoria also joined the battle to help eliminate the bugs.
Lin Che projected a black bow and countless arrows, practicing shooting at those bugs.
Arrow after arrow, like bullets, eliminated the bugs one by one.
It has to be said, the feeling of this kind of long-range sniping is very satisfying.
Coupled with "Unlimited Blade Works", it's equivalent to having infinite arrows. As long as there's enough Demon Power, he can keep shooting.
This scene directly stunned the members of the Loki Familia. They couldn't understand why Lin Che could conjure arrows out of thin air and shoot endlessly.
"Is this another rare skill?" Finn sighed somewhat, seeing Lin Che's ability.
Such a talented person, it would be great if he were a member of their Loki Familia.
Artoria, like Ais, relied on her holy sword being immune to corrosion and was wildly hacking away at the bugs.
Morgan, on the other hand, was much more elegant. Holding her staff, she gently waved it.
With each wave, a ray of light shot out, killing a bug.
Compared to Lin Che's infinite shooting, her infinite light cannons were also not inferior.
Under Merlin's guidance, Lefiya finally succeeded in chanting.
She released the magic "Barrage Fire Javelin"!
But even though she was said to have Level 5 firepower at Level 3, it was still too difficult to deal with these bugs.
One magic spell only cleared less than a tenth.
The most crucial point was that there were still many bugs coming towards the 50th floor from the passage leading to the 51st floor.
Rivilia saw this scene and was filled with gratitude towards Merlin.
She said to Lefiya, "That's enough, you did very well!"
Then, she would handle the rest.
Next was a super chant by Rivilia. She released her magic "Vís Vindheim"!
This magic is divided into three stages. The first stage, "Fimbulvetr", completely freezes a certain area and targets with three blizzards.
In just an instant, all the bugs were frozen, including those in the passage.
Immediately after, the second stage, "High-Headed Sword", is a wide-area annihilation magic. Contrary to the ice element of the first stage, this is fire magic.
Countless flames erupted from the ground. These flames, like pillars of fire, were like long swords, annihilating the bugs.
In just a brief moment, the area that had just been frozen completely melted.
The entire floor turned bright red, and the temperature continued to rise.
I have to say, the power of this move is truly formidable!
Even Merlin and Morgan, upon seeing it, acknowledged Rivilia's title as the First Mage.
"Without using a Noble Phantasm, I am not her match. If she learns High-Speed Chanting, I might not be able to defeat her even with a Noble Phantasm," Merlin said modestly.
However, Lin Che just glanced at her, completely disbelieving her words.
The monsters were dealt with, but most of the Loki Familia's supplies were destroyed, making it impossible to go deeper.
Moreover, judging from the situation just now, there must be a problem with the lower floors.
Without being fully prepared, Finn would definitely not take the Familia members on an adventure.
After discussing for a while, they unanimously decided to return to Orario.
Lin Che's original plan was to go back, so now they could go together.
After resting for a night, the two Familias began their journey back to the city.
A few days later, on the 39th floor.
Lin Che met up with Roxy and the other girls who were waiting there.
When Finn saw them, his heart was shocked again.
He originally thought the Hestia Familia only consisted of Lin Che and the four of them, but he didn't expect there were other members.
The talents of these members also seemed quite high. One of them, named Roxy, was actually a powerful mage.
Is this the kind of Familia setup a Goddess who just descended should have?
This is too ridiculous!
Lin Che didn't pay attention to the Loki Familia's surprise. Anyway, with their growth speed, it was estimated that it wouldn't take long for them to surpass the Loki Familia.
By then, Orario would be dominated by their Hestia Familia!
Even the Freya Familia and the Loki Familia wouldn't be able to do anything to them.
After a few more days, the two Familias finally returned to Orario.
After bidding farewell to the Loki Familia, Lin Che and the others returned to the church.
At this moment, they were all eager to find Hestia to update their Blessing.
But when they arrived at the church, they saw a young boy with white hair and red eyes.
The young boy looked very handsome, and his expression was a bit shy.
When he saw Lin Che, his expression first lit up with joy, and then he bowed with extreme respect and said, "Hello, Leader!"
"Good heavens, this rabbit actually joined the Hestia Familia!" Lin Che recognized the person when he saw the young boy.
The male protagonist of The Dungeon World, Bell Cranel!
Hestia gave Lin Che a look, as if saying, "See how amazing I am? I still found the male protagonist from the original plot!"
Lin Che didn't say much, just gave a thumbs-up.
He helped Bell up, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "No need to be polite. Joining the Familia means we're family. Let's work hard together from now on!"
Having watched many Japanese anime before transmigrating, Bell was one of the kind male protagonists he didn't dislike.
However, without awakening the Divine Skill "Liaris Freese", is the current Bell really worth recruiting into the Familia?
Recruiting Bell into the Familia means they will inevitably clash with the Freya Familia in the future.
But there's one thing Lin Che is curious about: without awakening "Liaris Freese", can Bell attract the attention of the beautiful Goddess Freya?
That woman can see through souls. The more radiant a soul is, the more it can attract her attention.
Was Bell's soul radiant from the beginning, or did it become radiant after awakening "Liaris Freese"?
I'm a bit curious now!
Roxy and the others were also curious about the new member, Bell. After getting to know each other, they didn't pay much more attention.
At this moment, the thing they wanted to do most was update their Blessing.
Hestia also understood their feelings and had them line up to update their Blessing one by one.
First were Saeko Busujima, Irisviel, Sera, Lisellote, and Jiu Yu Wu Mi.
During this expedition, their ability values grew significantly.
Saeko Busujima, [Ability Values]: Strength: A888 | Endurance: A846 | Dexterity: A872 | Agility: A855 | Demon Power: H166
Irisviel, [Ability Values]: Strength: D505 | Endurance: E444 | Dexterity: E409 | Agility: E412 | Demon Power: S900
Sera, [Ability Values]: Strength: A860 | Endurance: A899 | Dexterity: A899 | Agility: A896 | Demon Power: E460
Lisellote, [Ability Values]: Strength: A844 | Endurance: A812 | Dexterity: A873 | Agility: A819 | Demon Power: E409
Jiu Yu Wu Mi, [Ability Values]: Strength: A800 | Endurance: A801 | Dexterity: A807 | Agility: A808 | Demon Power: H100
Saeko Busujima doesn't use magic, so her Demon Power barely increased.
However, her Strength, Endurance, Dexterity, and Agility all reached A rank.
Irisviel was the opposite. Her Demon Power reached S rank, while the other four stats were relatively low.
Sera, Lisellote, and Jiu Yu Wu Mi were similar to Saeko Busujima, with low Demon Power and high values in the other four stats.
Their talents are relatively ordinary, and reaching this level in their ability values is already their limit, so they all chose to level up to Lv2.
Saeko Busujima and Irisviel have good talent and can still improve their ability values, so they chose to continue honing them and did not level up.
Next, Roxy, Merlin, Morgan, and Artoria updated their Blessing.
Roxy, [Ability Values]: Strength: S999 | Endurance: S999 | Dexterity: S999 | Agility: S999 | Demon Power: SS1099
Merlin, [Ability Values]: Strength: S999 | Endurance: S999 | Dexterity: S999 | Agility: S999 | Demon Power: SSS1600
Morgan, [Ability Values]: Strength: S999 | Endurance: S999 | Dexterity: S999 | Agility: S999 | Demon Power: SSS1600
Artoria, [Ability Values]: Strength: SS1099 | Endurance: SS1099 | Dexterity: SS1099 | Agility: SS1099 | Demon Power: S999
The ability values of these four were terrifying, all having broken stats.
The three mages, Roxy, Merlin, and Morgan, not only had broken Demon Power, but their first four stats also reached the highest possible full value!
As for Artoria, it was the opposite. Her first four stats were broken, and only her Demon Power was not broken, but it also reached the highest possible full value.
None of the four hesitated and chose to level up.
The last one, of course, was the Leader, Lin Che.
As one of the only two males in the Familia, he naturally had to wait until all the girls had updated their Blessing before updating his own.
In the basement, everyone was watching Lin Che at this moment.
Hestia also had a look of anticipation.
She dripped a drop of blood on Lin Che's back, her hands glowing, and began to write the new stats.
Soon, the update was complete.
[Name]: Lin Che
[Level]: Lv3
[Ability Values]: Strength: I0→SSS1688 | Endurance: I0→SSS1690 | Dexterity: I0→SSS1699 | Agility: I0→SSS1701 | Demon Power: I0→SSS9999
[Development Abilities]: Luck H, Mystery I
[Magic]: "", "", ""
[Skills]:
After seeing Lin Che's stats, everyone had an expression of 'as expected'.
But as a newcomer, Bell was shocked speechless.
The Leader's Blessing stats are too abnormal!
He had never even heard of ranks above S!
Lin Che glanced at his Blessing and nodded with satisfaction.
Because the North Meditation Divine Art can absorb the Demon Power of magic stones, his Demon Power can always reach the limit each time.
He only needs to hone the first four stats.
During this expedition, he didn't know how many monsters he killed, including three Floor Bosses.
Amphisbaena, Level Lv5!
Udaeus, Level Lv6!
Balor, Level Lv7!
Finally, the special monster, Zagnate, Level Lv8!
The accumulation of these great achievements forced all his ability values to become broken!
How terrifying!
"A Che Jun, do you want to level up?" Hestia asked with a smile.
"Yes!" Lin Che nodded.
Although he could continue to improve his ability values, there was no longer any need.
Next, Hestia began to level him up.
Soon, development abilities appeared.
This time there were a total of nine options, namely: Swordsman, Lancer, Pugilist, Mage, Continuous Attack, Stalwart, Healing, Abnormal Resistance, and Divinity!
"There's actually Divinity, how is that possible?" After reading out all the development abilities, Hestia herself was startled.
Lin Che was slightly stunned. How could he have something like Divinity?
In the Type-Moon World, Divinity can make Servants stronger. Servants with Divinity are all incredibly powerful!
But Divinity is also a weakness. Once the opponent has a Noble Phantasm that counters Divinity, they are finished.
For example, Gilgamesh's Enkidu!
Although Lin Che didn't know where his Divinity came from, he still chose Divinity.
"I'll choose Divinity!" Lin Che said to Hestia.
Compared to other development abilities, Divinity is much stronger!
"The correct choice!" Hestia said with an excited smile.
After choosing the development ability, Lin Che officially became a Lv4 adventurer.
At the same time, his development ability "Luck" also increased to rank G, and Mystery increased to rank H.
At this rate, it is estimated that it won't take long to reach Level 5 and complete Hestia's group mission.
How long has it been since he came to The Dungeon World?
Including the time for the expedition, it's only been 26 days in total!
Currently, the Hestia Familia has a total of 17 members: one Lv4, seven Lv2, and nine Lv1.
This is considered a large-scale Familia in Orario, not small in size.
Although the number of people is not large, having a Lv4 Familia member is already enough to surpass most Familias.
