Capítulo 145: [145] Reaching the 50th Floor!
Two days later, on the 50th floor, similar to the 18th floor, it was also considered a safe floor.
It took more than two days to reach the 50th floor from the 18th floor.
Expeditions were different from regular adventures. Expeditions involved familia members grouping together, and as there were both strong and weak members, the progress was relatively slow.
In the dungeon, unexpected situations could happen at any time.
Abnormal conditions, monster feasts, monster anomalies, strengthened monsters, and even floor bosses.
These uncertain special circumstances could slow down the expedition's progress.
And this time, the reason for the slower pace of the expedition was the monster feasts. In just two days, the expedition encountered three monster feasts.
It was unbelievable for Finn and the others. When did monster feasts become so common?
However, only August, Ais, and Tsubaki knew that these monster feasts occurred because of August.
August himself was like a bad luck charm in the dungeon.
Encountering monster feasts and strengthened monsters had become so frequent that it was as common as changing the appearance probabilities.
"These past two days have been exhausting. Three monster feasts, and it's the first time we've encountered so many in one go."
In the evening, everyone sat around the campfire, and Tiona couldn't help but complain.
"No one could have anticipated that monster feasts are random. Perhaps our luck is just bad."
Finn also felt a bit helpless. Three monster feasts had not only slowed down their progress but also increased the consumption of recovery potions.
After all, their goal was the 59th floor. Beyond the 50th floor, things would become extremely dangerous, and accidents could happen anytime.
August moved back a bit on the side. Monster feasts had nothing to do with him.
Soon, the logistics personnel responsible for food brought the meals. Mostly, they consisted of simple cooked rice and meat soup.
The expedition carried food that could be stored for a long time, so it was straightforward, and everyone understood it. Therefore, no one complained.
"Hmm? What's this smell? It's so fragrant!"
While everyone was eating together, a tempting aroma wafted over.
Everyone's first reaction was to look at August because he often brought out various strange and delicious foods, as well as various desserts and drinks.
Sure enough, August's spot was empty, and not only August but also Ais and Tsubaki were missing.
"Wow, these three have no conscience. They actually went to have their own little feast."
The incredibly talented healer, Lefiya, said, licking the corners of her mouth if only she could wipe off the saliva.
Finn was also somewhat helpless. In special circumstances, everyone could understand, but sneaking around to eat good food and letting others smell it was not enjoyable.
Smelling the unknown meat fragrance and looking at the meat soup and rice in their hands, Finn suddenly felt less appetizing.
"Let's go and check."
With everyone looking at them like that, Finn nodded and stood up.
This made everyone laugh, and they all put down their meals. The group followed the source of the fragrance, ready to move.
On the other side, August and Tsubaki were enjoying a lamb skewers, while Ais was savoring a seafood soup.
On the table were cans of coke, sprite, milk tea, beer, wine.
Was this still a dungeon? It was no different from going to a restaurant.
"Indeed, in a place like this, eating meat heartily is so satisfying."
Tsubaki finished a can of coke in one gulp, extremely pleased.
"I lack everything except food, and all of it is gourmet."
Every time he drew gacha, August would gain a batch of various foods and drinks. Moreover, they were all top-notch, ranging from a hundred portions to five hundred portions, even a thousand portions. In terms of eating and drinking, August was quite confident.
After all, as long as he didn't open a banquet, he could eat by himself, and he wouldn't run out for a short period.
Although he was unwilling, drawing gacha wasn't a guaranteed success every time. As long as there was no success, August would continuously receive supplies. So, in terms of eating and drinking, August was not lacking.
"Great, lamb skewers, roasted suckling pig, and this delicious soup, you guys are really selfish."
Suddenly, Tiona's voice came over, making the three of them pause for a moment before turning to look.
August, upon seeing this, realized that everyone had come.
Moreover, looking at the roasted suckling pig on the table and the lamb skewers in August and Tsubaki's hand, their eyes were glowing blue.
"Cough cough~ August, you also know what everyone's meals are like, and you..."
Finn began to say this, but he also felt embarrassed to say it directly.
"It's just a small token. If you want to eat, everyone has a share. Tomorrow we'll be advancing to the 51st floor. Let's all enjoy a good meal and gather strength."
As he spoke, he took out various delicacies, lamb skewers, roast suckling pig, braised chicken, pizza, steak, and so on.
August was generous with drinks as well, including white wine, red wine, and various other beverages.
"It's so delicious!"
"Delicious, it's really delicious."
"Never had anything so tasty."
"Wow, what soup is this? It's amazing."
"Roasted suckling pig, so delicious."
...
At once, a gourmet feast unfolded here.
Of course, August didn't mind at all. Anyway, he had plenty, so there was no harm in sharing a bit. He wasn't lacking in this aspect.
Soon, everyone was full and satisfied. This meal made everyone owe August a favor, although it was not significant, it was a real favor.
After eating and drinking to their heart's content, Finn and the others called all the members of the first combat team, including Tsubaki.
"Well, it's time to give these to you. I specially crafted a complete set of equipment with the 'indestructible' attribute. I named this series 'Rolan.'"
At Tsubaki's gesture, August took out a large package of equipment stored with him.
Short swords, giant axes, boots, double-edged swords, long spears, and all the equipment needed by everyone, all were indestructible attributes.
The last expedition ended because they encountered corrosive bugs that led to the need to end the expedition. That expedition had suffered considerable losses.
"No trouble at all, Tsubaki. With these weapons, we won't be afraid of being melted again."
"No problem. After all, you've all paid for them."
When these words came out, Finn felt a bit distressed.
Why? If he had known about August's relationship with Tsubaki earlier, he might have saved a lot of money.
Free was impossible, but at least they could have had a discount. This set of equipment was almost worth millions for each piece.
Due to the previous losses, all the family's funds were invested in this expedition. If it failed, the Loki familia would face the crisis of bankruptcy.
