Chapitre 139: The Great Feat!
Chapter 139: The Great Feat!
"What exactly did Ottar do to level up to Lv7?"
Rather than being surprised by Ottar's level up, Riveria was more concerned about how he achieved it.
"Unfortunately, I'm not very clear about that either."
(PS: Please ignore the mobile game storyline for now.)
Finn shook his head at Riveria.
He was equally curious about what kind of heroic feat Ottar had accomplished to achieve this advancement.
"Although the guild released the news rather quickly, they did not reveal any details about how Ottar leveled up."
Finn couldn't help but feel a bit regretful when he said this.
"Probably because it was too outrageous, the guild judged that this news would cause panic among the average adventurers, so they chose not to disclose the information."
Gareth stroked his beard and frowned, continuing Finn's words.
"The way Ottar leveled up, in the eyes of the average adventurer, no, probably even in our eyes, is purely a suicidal act."
"The path of growth for the new strongest adventurer, once publicized, will definitely attract countless fools who overestimate their abilities to challenge it."
"To avoid massive casualties, the guild must have made such a choice."
Gareth's analysis was, of course, clear to Finn, but he still felt regretful.
For Finn, who harbored the dream and mission of reviving the pallum race, gaining immense prestige to reinvigorate pallums worldwide was an inevitable path.
And becoming Lv7 was obviously a shortcut on this path.
"I'm also curious about what exactly Ottar..."
"...Probably a solo expedition."
The room instantly fell silent; everyone turned to look at the speaking Luke.
In this pin-drop silence, Luke just stared at the battle report on the wall, silently recalling the contents from his memory.
Luke had indeed read the original story but hadn't paid much attention to the details.
Now, after so many years, he somewhat forgot the less important segments.
Besides, he hasn't read the side stories very much.
However, he could still guess something about Ottar.
The battle report on the wall had a large number 51, which is the deepest level floor Familia has reached in their expeditions so far.
Finn followed Luke's gaze and seemed to understand something.
After a brief thought, he said to Bete, "Bete, take Ais and leave first."
"Cut..."
Bete knew what was coming even without Finn's instructions; the following discussion was not for those who hadn't even reached the first class, the 'weak'.
Although reluctant, he still turned around and walked towards the door, also calling Ais as per Finn's command.
"Hey Ais, let's go, don't cause trouble here."
Ais naturally heard Finn's words but she was somewhat reluctant to leave.
For Ais, who is abnormally obsessed with killing monsters, leveling up, and becoming stronger, the growth path of the strongest adventurer was too attractive.
She reached out and tugged at Luke's clothes, gently swaying them back and forth, while lifting her head to look at him with her big, expectant eyes.
This was a small gesture between her and Luke.
Because Ais found that as long as she made this gesture to Luke, he would always agree to her requests.
Luke looked at Ais with an amused smile, reaching out to pat her head.
However, he could not indulge her as usual this time.
"Ais, sorry, but you can't know about this yet."
"I will tell you when the time comes."
The failure of her small gesture made Ais a bit dejected, but she knew that being capricious in front of Finn and Riveria was of no use.
So, after being rejected by Luke, Ais reluctantly left the room with Bete.
"..."
"..."
After Ais and Bete left, only Luke, the goddess Loki, and the big three were left in the room.
"Luke...how sure are you about the information you just mentioned?"
Finn asked with a serious expression.
He did not intend to inquire about the source of his information.
Over the years, Finn had come to understand Luke well enough and trusted him sufficiently.
As the only adventurer except them who had reached the first class, Luke was fully qualified to participate in high-level meetings.
"About seventy percent."
He didn't make any guarantees.
After all, Luke was not sure if he missed some details. He could only guess based on the original story.
(PS: Like I said, ignore the mobile game storyline for now.)
"The great achievement that allowed Ottar to level up is probably 'solo expedition to the 49th floor'."
As Luke's words fell, the room fell silent again.
Shock.
Everyone was shocked, including Luke.
Only after coming to this world and experiencing the dungeon, personally experiencing the terror of the floors beyond the 37th, could one truly understand what kind of great feat Ottar had accomplished.
"49th floor...you mean that 49th floor?!"
"Isn't that where..."
Riveria's words were only half-spoken, but everyone present understood her meaning.
The 49th floor, that is the domain of the Monster Rex, the floor boss, Balor.
It is also the strongest floor boss confirmed so far, including the era of Zeus and Hera.
"Did Ottar defeat it alone?! Defeat Balor?!"
Riveria struggled to pull herself out of the shock.
"I don't know about that; the information I have is not that detailed."
Luke answered Riveria's question with a bitter smile.
However, this time, Finn took over the conversation.
"It's probably not about defeating Balor. The 50th floor is a safe floor; if Balor was truly defeated by Ottar, then it should be 'solo expedition to the 51st floor' at least."
"I don't think Ottar, capable of such a feat, would fail to defeat Balor, but remember, he didn't just challenge Balor alone."
Finn's words shifted everyone's focus away from Balor.
As he said, the floor bosses Ottar encountered were not just one.
Goliath, Amphisbaena, Udaeus - these three floor bosses all probably became nourishment for his evolution.
And most importantly, the word 'solo'.
The most terrifying aspect of the dungeon is not the strong monsters, not the ever-changing traps, not the environment that constantly erodes one's heart.
But the endless numbers!
The biggest factor preventing adventurers from delving deeper into the dungeon is rest.
That is, sleep, water, and food.
Loki Familia's last expedition reached the 51st floor, taking a total of half a month.
Alone, defeating three floor bosses, engaging in continuous high-intensity battles, suffering from thirst and hunger, without sleep or rest.
On this basis, to stand before the 49th floor's Balor, to fight and return in one piece.
And then, under many adverse conditions, to return alive from the 49th floor to the surface.
This should probably be the great feat accomplished by Ottar!
This is Orario's new strongest adventurer!
