Loki spoke unclearly, and the look he gave Livilia was full of resentment.
"Who are you saying is the mother?"
Veins bulged on Livilia's forehead. She waved her hand violently and threw Loki, who was hanging on the magic shield, against the wall.
boom!
"Uh……"
Loki changed from facing the magic shield to facing the wall. He twitched a few times and then became motionless.
"You deserve it."
The other core members who received the notification from the gate guard and came after hearing the news, saw this scene, not only did they not care whether Loki was there or not, but they all looked gloating.
Then a group of people came closer and greeted Livilia warmly.
Finn: "Long time no see, Riveria, welcome back."
Tione: “Welcome back.”
Grace: "Why has 410 only come back once in such a long time? There is still no news at all. We can't find anyone, which makes everyone worried for a while."
Diona: "That's right, I almost thought you forgot about us."
Bert: "Huh, you still remember to come back."
Lefiya: "Lady Livilia, long time no see, how have you been lately?"
After hearing what everyone said, Livilia couldn't help but feel at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
"I'm sorry, everyone. I was wrong this time."
However, Livilia did not make any excuses and directly admitted her mistake.
"As compensation, I brought gifts for everyone this time."
As she spoke, Livilia took out a bunch of things from her space backpack and distributed them to everyone, even Loki got a share.
Finn, Grace, and Bert, the three men, each have a weapon that suits them, which has been strengthened by Su Mo's King's Treasure and is much stronger than the top weapons currently available in Orario.
Ais, Lefiya, Tione, and Tiona each had one piece of clothing.
These garments were made of spider silk from the tuft, specially enchanted by Hephaestus and strengthened with the treasure of the king.
The defensive effect is quite high. The weapons she gave to Finn and the other two could not penetrate the defense that well. After wearing it, the four girls can freely enter and exit the dungeon without getting hurt.
As for Loki, it is some homemade wine brewed by the dimensional city.
…To be continued….
Chapter 286 Finn’s confusion and shock, the secret faction is found!
Well, that's the differential treatment.
The girls who were close to him were all high-quality gifts, the men who were average friends were all ordinary gifts (that kind of weapon was just ordinary stuff in the Dimension City), and the one who disdained Loki was just a perfunctory gift.
Although Loki was very satisfied with his gift, everyone else was also very happy to receive their gifts.
In addition, Livilia also prepared some gift packages consisting of snacks such as biscuits and candies made from fortified ingredients.
This kind of thing is that everyone who sees it will get a share, and every member of the family will get a share, which can be said to be equally shared.
After distributing the gifts, the evening hall was immediately filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Upon seeing this, Finn announced on the spot that all activities for the day would be cancelled and a banquet would be held to welcome Riveria.
"Young ones! Move!"
"Oh~!!!"
Everyone responded and dispersed. Some who were setting up the venue went to set up the venue, some who were preparing ingredients went out to buy food, and the kitchen immediately started cooking and started making delicious food with the existing ingredients.
Suddenly, the Dusk Hall became extremely lively.
Livilia, the protagonist of the party, was pulled aside by a group of girls to have a private chat.
It was also at this time that someone finally paid attention to Su Mo, who had been left aside.
Finn came to Su Mo and said with a smile, "Sir Su Mo, long time no see, how are you these days?"
Su Mo also smiled and responded, "It's been a long time since we last met, Captain Finn. I'm fine recently, but I was very busy before. Thank you for your concern. How about you guys?"
"We are doing OK too. Thanks to your communication props, we have organized another expedition in the past two months and gained a lot."
"Congratulations then."
"Congratulations, don't just blame us. What have you been busy with recently? I went to your base but couldn't find anyone there."
"That's right, we can't find it, because we're not in Orario at all."
"Not in Orario? But I haven't heard that you guys are out of town."
Su Mo smiled and said vaguely: "I can use teleportation magic."
"I see. No wonder." Finn nodded without dwelling on it.
After all, these things are secrets of each family. Although the relationship between Loki's family and Hestia's family is very good, it is obviously not good enough to share secrets.
Just like the previous transactions, Loki's family did not ask where Su Mo got those good things.
This is a tacit understanding.
However, just because Finn couldn't ask about confidential matters didn't mean that he wouldn't continue to ask Su Mo for information.
"So, are you here today because you're finally done with your work outside? What are you going to do next? I heard that your other members are all outside, what's going on?"
"Kanae and the others, they went out just for experience and exploration, it's just a casual move."
"Idle chess?"
Finn was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then his expression became serious.
"From what you said, it seems like you are playing chess with someone."
Su Mo nodded, and added with a smile, "But it's more like a game of hide-and-seek than a game of chess."
"hide and seek?"
Finn frowned and thought for a while, then he thought of something and looked at Su Mo in surprise: "You mean, dark..."
But halfway through his words, Finn swallowed his words back and looked around cautiously. He was relieved to see that none of the young clan members had heard it.
Finn naturally knew about the affairs of the dark faction, because he had experienced it the last time the dark faction caused trouble.
There was also the strange floor that we encountered in the dungeon before, which was actually the work of the dark faction.
Therefore, after returning from that expedition, the high-ranking members of the Loki clan began to investigate the dark faction.
Since it was a secret investigation, the younger members of the clan were unaware of it, and the higher-ups were also deliberately concealing the matter.
However, it’s not that they don’t trust their young members, but they just don’t want the news to get out and cause turmoil in Orario.
After all, the last time the dark faction caused trouble, it directly led to the darkest and most chaotic period in Orario. A large number of clansmen were expelled, leaving behind a notorious reputation.
Many experienced adventurers who have experienced that period have psychological trauma from this.
If the news of the Dark Faction's comeback spreads, the entire Orario will begin to become unstable without the Dark Faction having to do anything.
After heaving a sigh of relief, Finn asked Su Mo with a puzzled look on his face: "Why would you investigate this?"
Finn didn't understand. As a new family, Hestia's family had clearly not experienced that period, so how could they know about the dark faction and have already taken action quietly?
Su Mo waved his hand: "Don't worry about this. I have my reasons. Besides, do I need any reason to get rid of harm for the people?"
"That's really not necessary."
Seeing this, Finn did not continue to ask questions about this issue, and said:
".‖ So, what is your progress now? I don't think it's a complete failure."
In the following words, Finn did not use a question mark but an affirmative tone.
Because he didn't think that Su Mo would tell him so much if there was no result.
Su Mo nodded: "Indeed, we have made some progress. Just this morning, our intelligence personnel reported that they have captured their lair."
The reason why he came here today was because Najeshitan reported the latest results of the investigation.
After many days of hard work, they finally found an important member of the dark faction, and by following the clues, they discovered the dark faction's lair.
"real?!"
Finn was startled when he heard this and stood up suddenly.
"what happened?"
"what's the situation?"
"Captain?"
The people nearby were startled by Finn's movement and looked over.
"It's okay, just keep busy."
Finn reacted and quickly (damn) suppressed his excitement, pretending to be calm and waving to everyone, then said to Su Mo: "Let's go, let's talk inside."
"Uh-huh."
The two stood up and left, walking towards the meeting room.
Many core members noticed this scene and quickly followed after instructing other members to do their own things.
By the way, he also picked up Loki and went over together.
Although I don’t know what happened, it’s definitely a good idea to bring the god Loki along for important conversations.
However, Livilia did not follow. She already knew the inside story, so she just took a glance and continued to chat with Ais, Lefiya, and Diona, as if it had nothing to do with her.
Seeing that Livilia was like this, the girls did not follow her and continued chatting.
When the others saw this, although they were a little curious, they didn't pay much attention to it and continued to prepare for the banquet.
…To be continued….
Chapter 287 Let’s talk about cooperation again, Su Mo: Is this strength enough?
"So, are you sure your information is true?"
The group of people came to the conference room, and Finn explained the situation to Loki and other companions.
Loki nodded, opened his squinting eyes, looked at Su Mo seriously and asked.
"Of course it's true."
After Su Mo confirmed it again, he was afraid that it was not convincing enough, so he added:
"You may have heard of the person who provided this information recently. He is a recent rising intelligence dealer in the gray area of Orario."
"She is actually one of my subordinates. She once led a team to lurk in the enemy's capital for several years and developed an intelligence system from scratch. She also did a lot of sabotage work behind enemy lines and never failed."
"It's actually her?!"
Finn was shocked again when he heard this.
Although he didn't know his name and had never seen him before, Finn had heard rumors of a rapidly rising figure in the Gray Area of Orario.
It is said that this strange person can provide almost any information you want, and as long as you can afford the money, she can help you get even the most difficult information within two days.
At that time, Finn had thought about whether he should ask this strange man for information about the secret faction, but unfortunately he didn't get in touch with him by chance. Later on, he thought about it and gave up in order to avoid being exposed.
Who would have thought that this strange man was actually Su Mo's subordinate? !
After hearing Su Mo's introduction, he couldn't help but sigh: "He is really a strange man."
He carried out sabotage behind enemy lines and even reached the enemy's capital. I have to say, he is a ruthless person.
"What? Who? What are you talking about?"
Unlike Finn, Loki was confused and had no idea what the two were talking about.
"Is such that……"
Seeing this, Finn explained it to Loki.
"There's this thing? Why didn't I know?"
"That's because you were drunk that day and you didn't come to our meeting." Burt glanced at Loki with disgust.
