Chapter 682 Ushering in terrible consequences

On this day, the weather was unusually good.

The sky was clear and cloudless, allowing warm sunlight to fall on the earth, giving the surface of the tall chalk tower a layer of brilliance.

In the center of the city, in the central square connected by eight streets, today there were as many adventurers forming a crowd, one after another, entering the Tower of Babel and entering the underground city.

The only thing that is different from usual is that there is an area in front of the Tower of Babel that is occupied by people today.

It was the expedition team of the Loki Familia.

I saw the city's top adventurers pushing cargo boxes, carrying large luggage, and being fully armed gathered here, causing the surrounding adventurers to stop and look here.

"Yo! Here we come!"

At a certain moment, accompanied by such a heroic voice, the blacksmith with an eyeband on his left eye came closer.

It was Chun Cobrand, the leader of the Hephaestus Familia.

This blacksmith master who used to dress inappropriately for blacksmithing was not only equipped with weapons today, but also wore weapons for exploring the maze.

They were bright red hakama trousers unique to the Far East and a continental-style combat uniform, plus protective gear such as hand guards and shoulder pads. The lower body and upper body were armed in different ways.

The weapon she carried was a sword in a dark scabbard, and she also carried a large weapons box on her back.

Behind Chun, about twenty senior blacksmiths from the Hephaestus Familia appeared one by one, and together with their leader, they joined the Loki Familia.

"We're not late, are we?"

Because Finn was doing the final confirmation and inventory, Chun, who had greeted him, didn't waste his time. After a while, he found Li Ge and came closer with a grin.

"...Miss Chun."

Ais happened to be next to Li Ge, so she greeted Chun who was approaching.

"Long time no see, [Sword Princess]."

Chun also said hello to Ais.

"Don't worry, you guys arrived just in time. It's not time to set off yet." Li Ge first replied to Chun, and then looked at the equipment box he was carrying behind him, and said slightly curiously: "What's in it? arms?"

"Well, you will know when you get to the deep level. Now is not the time to take it out." Chun said this mysteriously, and then immediately approached Li Ge and said: "I listen to the Lord God Sir, you told her that you entrusted her to help you build a weapon that contains the craftsmanship of God, right?"

When he talked about this, Chun's eyes were shining.

"A weapon containing the craftsmanship of God?"

Ais was slightly startled, and then looked at Li Ge with burning eyes.

Even the team members who were lucky enough to hear the conversation turned around as if they were electrocuted. Among them were several senior blacksmiths from the Hephaestus Familia. Like Chun, they looked at Li Ge with almost astonishing eyes. Emitting light and burning hot.

"You already know?" Li Ge couldn't stand Chun's enthusiasm, and while pushing Chun's face away from him at a very close distance, he said helplessly: "Didn't Goddess Hephaestus say that it should be kept secret? Why did you say it directly?"

"What's so secret about this? Why don't people know about it?" Chun said with some dissatisfaction and excitement at the same time: "I won't hold you accountable. You just took my highest masterpiece, but then you turned around and went to find the Lord God to build it. I got a new weapon, but you have to show me that weapon!"

"Lord God has given you the weapon, right?"

"Take it out quickly!"

That's right, the order entrusted to the forging god Hephaestus by Li Ge has been completed, and the weapons agreed upon have been forged and are now in Li Ge's hands.

Li Ge only went to pick up the goods yesterday, so as not to delay today's expedition.

However……

"I think it's better if you don't look at it."

Li Ge said this.

"Why?" Chun suddenly said with great dissatisfaction: "It won't do anything for me to take a look at it. I want to see the crystallization of God's craftsmanship!"

For blacksmiths who pursue the supreme realm of blacksmiths and intend to create artifacts comparable to those in myths and legends, weapons containing the craftsmanship of gods are definitely the crystallization of their dreams.

As long as you can take a brief look at the works created by this technology that has reached the divine realm, it is a rare opportunity for any blacksmith.

Chun Buqiu can see what kind of technology is used in the works created by the Lord God. That is an area that she is currently far out of reach.

All she wanted was to be able to get over it and generate some inspiration, and that would be the best reward.

Not only did Tsubaki think so, but even Aisi became interested in it.

A work made by the God of Forging himself and containing the craftsmanship of God. It must be a weapon that far exceeds the first level of weapons, right?

The blond-haired swordswoman with golden eyes has almost no interest in this life other than becoming stronger, and only has two favorite things.

One is a street snack called potato balls.

One is a weapon that can accompany the swordsman.

Therefore, when Chun heard that Li Ge had a weapon made by the Forging God himself, she couldn't help but want to pass it by.

But Li Ge still refused.

"It's not that I don't want to show it to you, but it's just that you can't take this thing out casually." Li Ge shrugged and said, "Yesterday, when I went to get the weapon from the goddess Hephaestus, she was still hesitant. He said that he didn’t know whether he should hand such a weapon to me and put it in the hands of children in the lower world.”

Hearing this, everyone was startled.

"Why?"

Tsubaki asked in confusion.

"the reason is simple."

Li Ge looked at Chun like this and said calmly.

"That weapon is too dangerous."

"If used improperly, not only will the user suffer, but there will also be dire consequences."

"So, let alone showing it to you, even I don't dare to take it out casually."

"In this expedition and all future battles, I will not use it easily unless necessary."

"This is also the promise I made to the goddess Hephaestus, never to misuse that weapon."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath.

"...Can the Lord God be so cautious?" Chun was silent for a long time, and then said regretfully: "It seems that a dangerous weapon has indeed been born, okay, I won't think about it anymore. It’s about weapons.”

On the side, Ais lowered her eyes.

She really wanted to take a look.

"Even the forging goddess Hephaestus calls it a dangerous weapon..."

Such a weapon must be very powerful, right?

The girl with blond hair and golden eyes was thinking like this, and she even fell into a trance.

until--

“Everyone has it!”

Finn's voice suddenly sounded louder, attracting the attention of everyone present.

Li Ge and Aisi also came to their senses one after another, and turned their eyes one after another to the direction where the sound came from.

There, Finn stood directly in front of the assembled expeditionary force, with Riveria and Grace standing on the left and right respectively. With his back to the entrance of the Tower of Babel, he spoke to everyone present.

"The personnel have been assembled and the expedition is about to officially begin!"

"This time, not only do we have all the elite members of the Loki Familia, but we also have the Hephaestus Familia, a well-known forging faction, to help us, and together we can move towards the ultimate goal of this trip!"

"Our goal from beginning to end is to reach the unreached floor—the 59th floor!"

The leader of the clan declared loudly with a voice far larger than his petite body.

That voice that was full of momentum, courage, and uncompromising made everyone's eyes burn with fire.

That is the fire of faith.

It was the fire of fighting spirit.

"You are no less brave warriors than the heroes of ancient times, you are top-notch adventurers gathered under the banner of Lord Loki, and you are our proud companions!"

"You will join us to challenge the unknown buried deep under this land, fight for the human race, and fight for the world!"

"I believe that we will eventually be able to return in triumph, overturning the failure of the last expedition, and become the strongest like the male god (Zeus) and goddess (Hera) who once fought on this land!"

Finn looked around at all the group members and then looked around.

Many adventurers are watching here.

Many citizens are watching here.

Many gods are watching here.

Expectation, curiosity, envy, jealousy, admiration, worship, hatred, etc., etc. also appeared in the eyes of those people, making the Loki family become the focus of the audience in various senses.

Looking at this scene, Finn took a deep breath and gave the order as if shouting to everyone present, all the adventurers or the entire world.

"Set off!"

The next second...

"""""Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh ——!!!""""

Astonishing war cries rang out from everyone's mouths, soaring into the sky.

Tiona, Tione and even Bert were all roaring, igniting their fighting spirit and boosting their confidence, causing Lefiya, Raul, Angel and others beside them to also shout out one after another.

Aisi didn't shout, but she tightened her grip on the sword tied around her waist, and her golden eyes burned with fire.

Li Ge smiled faintly and looked at all this. After a while, he suddenly raised his head and looked at the top of the Tower of Babel.

There, a line of sight seemed to cast down and meet him.

From an extremely long distance, Li Ge seemed to be able to see the owner of that line of sight, his eyes were unusually calm.

"...Did you notice me?"

On the top floor of the Tower of Babel, in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window, the goddess of beauty, holding a red wine glass in her hand, looked down at the owner of the "hole" that seemed to be able to swallow everything. A beautiful face appeared on her beautiful face. The smile comes.

"If you enter the dungeon at this time, will you encounter that child?"

"With Otta here, it should be fine."

"In that case, let me see it."

"Look at what you, a person who has never known the glory of the soul, can do when you meet the bravest warrior."

The goddess of beauty is smiling and looking forward to it.

She looked like a lofty goddess and an extremely cruel witch.
