Chapter 536 The Precognitive Dream Appears Again
Time passed, and a message from the great god Uranus indicated that the deadline for conquering the unknown dungeons was drawing ever closer, and everyone felt a sense of urgency.
Roy rushed around as fast as he could and finally managed to complete a round of equipment upgrades for all the girls in his family.
Ryu's Radiant Light, Tione's Silver Moon Twin Blades, Tiona's Great Twin Blades, and Alyssa's Crimson Order Modified—these are at least legendary-level equipment, with a few reaching quasi-god level. Even for Roy, achieving the latter level would be extremely mentally taxing and difficult.
The materials stored by the clan were completely wiped out.
Exhausted, Roy returned to his room. Today was Daphne and Cassandra's turn. The two considerate girls did not take any further advantage of Roy, and instead, one on each side, accompanied their beloved into sleep.
Cassandra was suddenly awakened in the middle of the night.
"Another precognitive dream?"
Roy opened his eyes and looked at the blue-haired girl with tears in her eyes.
Cassandra nodded, her soft, timid eyes filled with genuine fear, as if she had just escaped from a nightmare from which she could not wake up.
Upon seeing Roy, her fear gradually subsided.
This was their secret, and Cassandra felt a surge of happiness whenever she thought of Roy's unconditional belief in her precognitive dreams.
"Don't rush, speak slowly," Roy said softly.
"Um!"
After years of growth, Cassandra was no longer the timid girl she once was. She possessed the ability to stand on her own. She sorted out her thoughts and tried to recall the contents of her dream as much as possible: "In the bright paradise, everyone was playing happily—the leader turned into a giant doll, swallowed everyone, and then exploded. We fell to the ground and were swept away by a raging torrent—"
Cassandra's voice was light and airy, as if she were recounting the fun she had had with her friends, but in reality, with each word she uttered, her slender shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and her fair face drained of color, making her look like a fragile porcelain doll.
The fragmented images glimpsed through "precognitive dreams" are distorted, ominous, and filled with a chilling coldness.
"I see."
Roy listened to Cassandra's increasingly uneasy narration, then placed his warm, large hand on her head: "Sleep now, leave the rest to me."
Cassandra's tense defenses relaxed, and she let out a soft sob as she nestled into Roy's strong embrace.
A few breaths later, even and gentle breathing could be heard. Cassandra nestled in Roy's arms, drifting off to sleep peacefully and contentedly. The dampness on her eyelashes whispered of the fear she had just experienced.
Roy closed his eyes to rest, sorting through the information he had obtained from Cassandra. The abstract content of precognitive dreams was extremely difficult to interpret, but there were some clues.
Will he become the adventurers' enemy?
The spacious living room of the Star Garden.
Roy's gaze swept over his girls, and he said in a deep voice, "This time, the team for conquering the 72nd floor will consist of me, Ryu, Alphia, Cassandra, and Haruhime. Everyone else will stay on the surface!"
"what?"
The girls looked surprised. Could a team of only five people be enough to conquer the 72nd floor? That was an unknown territory that no one had ever ventured into before.
Kaguya raised her small hand and asked rationally, "Captain, can I ask why?"
The other girls also stared intently at Roy, their eyes filled with worry but not a trace of jealousy.
Roy stated his guess: "The 72nd floor is not a floor that can be conquered by simply having a large number of people —"
He and Alphia reached LV.9, and their actual combat strength far surpassed that of ordinary LV.9 adventurers, at least in the past.
Even the Empress couldn't compare to them; the two of them could easily clear the first seventy-one levels!
The seventy-second floor is just a little deeper than the seventy-first floor.
In theory, it shouldn't be difficult for the two of them to conquer the 72nd floor, unless that floor has some special characteristics that are unimaginable to ordinary people. In other words, if they can't handle it, bringing other girls along will be of no use.
Moreover, Roy had a premonition that the battlefield wasn't just on the 72nd floor, but also on the surface! Through Cassandra's "precognitive dream," he became even more certain.
Let the girls stay, just in case!
Roy said, "Once we enter the dungeon, Lily will be the first commander, and Alexie will be the second commander—in case of unforeseen circumstances, the ranking will be passed down!"
"yes!"
Having said that, the girls of the clan naturally had no further objections, as protecting their home and Astraea was an extremely important task.
Roy nodded and checked his equipment again: Tenseiga, Celestial Elixir, Black Dragon Gem, Elven Holy Sword, World Shield, three legendary selectable treasure chests, and his spatial ring was packed full of supplies—truly armed to the teeth.
"Let's go!" Roy said, grabbing Ryu, Cassandra, Alphia, and Haruhime, and activating spatial magic. Ripples spread out, engulfing their figures.
He and the others agreed to meet at Babel Tower Square.
Without Roy's spatial magic, the other members of the Familia had arrived earlier and could be seen at a glance.
Finn, Riveria, Grace, Ais, and Bert from the Loki Familia; Ota, Allen, Hedin, Hegny, and the four Flame Warriors from the Freya Familia; Leon from the school district; Bell from the Hestia Familia; and Tsubaki Corbrand, the captain of the Hephaestus Familia, who was invited by them to be in charge of maintaining the equipment.
Including Roy and his group of five, there are a total of twenty-one people!
Unlike the situation of defeating the Black Dragon, which is a clearly world-ending threat, requiring all adventurers in Orario to join forces, and countries and major cities around the world will not stand idly by.
Seeing is believing, and others still harbored doubts about the dangers of the underground city.
Putting aside the psychological issues, the reality is that ordinary adventurers cannot participate in the battle. The exploration area is on the 72nd floor, and for adventurers below LV.6 to go to that depth is no different from suicide.
The inability of airships to enter the underground city and the scarcity of living supplies are also problems.
This mission is destined to be a battle for a small number of elites!
"Set off!"
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Roy did not delay and immediately gave the order, taking the lead and walking forward.
Finn, Ota, and Leon followed closely behind.
The team's commander is undoubtedly Roy.
Freya's Familia is considered a vassal of Astrea's Familia. With Freya's orders, Ota and the others will obediently follow orders. Roy's forces number more than half of the exploration team's personnel, and Finn, Leon, and the others are also convinced of their authority.
The group entered the underground city in a grand procession.
The gods, adventurers, and people on the surface watched as Roy and his companions gradually disappeared into the underground city, their hearts filled with worry and anticipation.
Those are the strongest adventurers on the surface of the earth, and they are facing the darkness at the bottom of the abyss, and possibly even the mysterious Titans!
