“ ———— ”

As Rafia's voice sounded clearly in the roar of the maze's black rhinoceros, the first adventurers of the Rocky family shook up and raised their heads sharply and looked forward.

Noah similarly projected her gaze behind the impending black rhinoceros herd, and then saw it.

Seeing a general appearance reminiscent of the yellow green of the plant skin, it looked like some kind of larvae, the upper body bulging like a small mountain, the lower body like a snail's software, with countless short legs, looking rather disgusting monster.

The monster's swollen yellow-green skin is filled with colorful lines.

A flat arm without thickness extends from the left and right sides of the body, with four cracks at the front end, just like a finger.

The first thing Noah thought of when he saw the monster was Shrem.

However, Slime is a slime creature, and the monster in front of him has substantial flesh, and countless short legs like larvae have flat tentacles like devil fish.

Such monsters can only be described as disgusting, even in the eyes of Noah, who has traveled to and from many worlds.

In fact, Rafia, the only one in the room with a normal teenage heart, had a pretty face long ago.

And what makes Lefia bluish is that there's more than one such monster.

A group of new monsters of varying sizes and sizes are emerging from a corner of the maze in front of them, filling the entire passageway, like a clump of yellow-green meat creeping, crowded together in the passageway in front.

The next second, everyone saw it.

The front end of that mass of meat cracked open and opened a mucus filled with disgusting mucus, a crack that looked like an oral cavity.

Seeing this scene, Noah's eyes flashed and Finn opened his eyes as well.

Spinning, Finn immediately shouted.

“Go! Turn to the fork ahead! ”

Finn's shouting made everyone react.

“Drink ---! ”

The avant-garde Tiona and Tiogne swiftly slaughtered two black rhinos, then took the lead, following the entire team into a fork ahead.

Almost at the same time, all the larvae monsters that opened their mouths sprayed liquids with stink.

Suddenly, a large amount of purple and black liquid formed a surge, like sewage through the drains, rushing through the entire passage in front of the larvae monsters.

“Psst! ”

Accompanied by a creepy sound, the purple and black fluids, whether ground, rock walls or ceilings, are raw and dissolved for the most part as if they were corroded.

And the black rhinoceros that are still racing are directly caught up in the purple and black surge, making an awesome scream, followed by the corrosion of even the belt bones, like molten steel, making the scalp numb.

Finn walkers rushing into the fork clearly saw the scene and just felt the goose bumps coming up.

And Noah finally understood why those monsters were able to dissolve the weapon.

That's not the characteristic of these monsters, but the monsters know how to use this type of attack.

It's not just weapons.

Whatever it is, if you touch those corrosive fluids, there's only what happens when they get corroded.

No wonder during the last expedition, the Loki family, whose arms were all dissolved, needed to retreat.

If even the weapon is dissolved, empty-handed versus such a monster, that is Lv.5 and Lv.6's first adventurer, who touches who dies, even if not dies, must end up badly injured.

“You filthy monsters! ”

“Still so disgusting! ”

Neither Tiona nor Tionet had to be insulted.

“What do we do, Finn?” Bert pulled out of his waist a double sword with a non-bad attribute and shouted.

“Kill?! ”

“Don't be silly, we are not here to avenge an arrow. Even if we want revenge, there is no need to rush to avenge it at this time. It is not too late to avenge it later!” Finn answered without hesitation.

“While weapons and magic swords with non-bad properties are available against these larvae types, considering that there may be more such monsters on the back floor, the precious weapons and magic swords should not be used here, just go straight to the 52-story entrance! ”

Finn's words, that doesn't make any sense.

While a weapon that does not damage attributes can guarantee that it will never be damaged, it does not mean that it will not be worn.

As long as the weapon is used for long periods of time without maintenance, the sharpness will be reduced and the power will be diminished.

The same applies to weapons that do not have bad attributes.

Even if it can be guaranteed that it will never be damaged, the sharpness will surely decrease dramatically if the weapon is used for long periods of time or even if it is allowed to touch that corrosive liquid.

As for the Magic Sword, it's more of a consumable, save it if you save it later.

“So keep in formation, go all the way forward, there are two next turnouts, both leading to the 52nd floor entrance!” Finn so commanded.

“Let's go straight to the left one, which is closer to the 52nd floor entrance! ”

Everyone nodded their heads.

At this time, however, Noah and Ace spoke simultaneously and said the same thing in a different voice.

“No, the one to the right! ”

Everyone stood still.

Even Noah and Ace looked at each other with a slight glimpse, obviously not expecting each other to say the same thing to themselves.

Finn was the first to react in this situation.

“What's the matter?” Finn asked.

“Did you find anything? ”

Noah nodded her head at the same time as Ace.

“The road to the left, though closer to the entrance to the 52nd floor, has been filled with monsters.” Noah lit her own eyebrows.

“I've felt a lot of strange smells there since just now, and I'm afraid it's just that new breed of monster. ”

“Really?” Finn nodded thoughtfully and looked at Ace.

“Ace, did you notice that too? ”

“Mm-hmm." Ace said, lightening her chin a little.

“There's a lot of monster smell in the wind. ”

--Wind Spirit Walk.

That's the only magic Ace has.

An additional magic that wraps the wind around your hands, feet, body, and even weapons, increasing attack, defense, and speed, and even gaining short-range flight capability.

When I first met Noah, I used this magic to deal with Noah as Ace, the sex wolf who peeked into the goddesses' baths.

Through this magic, while Ace has only just risen to Lv.6 for a short time, his strength can almost be described as occupying the head even in Lv.6.

Now, because the crushing had not yet been perfectly controlled, Ace wore a bracelet that restricted magic activation and enclosed her magic.

However, the acute sensation of magic persists, allowing Ace to feel some of the movement of the surrounding wind.

This is why Ace, like Noah, who has great sensing power, discovered that there are a lot of larvae-shaped monsters in the left channel of the forward turnoff.

“Now that Drag and Ace have said that, you're absolutely right.” Finn did not hesitate to cancel the decision just made.

“Considering that the channel on the left is already occupied by new monsters, even if it is closer to the entrance on the 52nd floor, once the battle is fought, it will take longer, and more importantly, it will consume the items on hand, so let's take the channel on the right! ”

“Got it!” Everyone had no hesitation in responding.

Before the start of the pedestrian again, he continuously slaughtered the newly produced monster from the underground city that broke through the rock walls on both sides, rushing like bamboo into a maze aisle on the right.

Protected in the middle by a crowd of first-level adventurers, Lefía has been biting his teeth tightly and hard to keep up.

Noah, who was also protected, looked around at the monster whose head broke out of the wall and her dark eyes slightly squinted.

Just like in response to Noah's heart, Athena's voice rang from her heart.

“It seems that the larvae are not ordinary monsters. ”

That's exactly what Noah thought.

And Noah would think so for a simple reason.

Just because none of the monsters that are conceived from the surrounding walls are the so-called new monsters.

In that case, Noah had to doubt one thing.

“Are those monsters from the underground or not? ”
