Chapter 53: Page 53

It's almost like an ambassador sent abroad, similar to Qin Yu.

After listening to this, Nan Lixiang thought about it and shook her head first:

"Forget about going back. After this incident, everything has been turned upside down over there. We won't be able to adapt if we go back."

"Yeah, Rika is right." Shizuka Marikawa also nodded in agreement.

"So you're going to learn it?"

“Yes, please give us this opportunity.”

Nan Lixiang stood up and spoke to Su Mo seriously.

"And me, I want it too."

Shizuka Marikawa also stood up.

"Then, as you wish."

Su Mo immediately signed a master-servant contract with them.

Then he raised his hand and instilled memories, teaching them the basic breathing and meditation techniques, as well as a magic pattern and some basic magic.

"You can practice these two things. When you have cultivated magic power, come to me. I will teach you some more magic. If you haven't cultivated it yet and the magic power in the magic pattern is used up, you can also come to me for replenishment~."

Su Mo discovered that this energy-storing magic pattern was really useful.

By granting magic patterns and magical knowledge, he can enable anyone to quickly master the power of magic.

Su Mo also plans to give some of the next two hundred people who will arrive in this way so that they can quickly form a labor force.

"Yes!" X2

After dinner, the two girls couldn't wait to go back and try out the magic.

Su Mo also went to Orario and prepared to rest here.

But when he found Hestia, he heard her say:

"Su Mo, you came at the right time. Livilia came again today and said she wanted to discuss something about the expedition with you."

"The expedition is about to begin?"

Su Mo was stunned when he heard this.

This is a bit of a bad time.

There are a lot of things going on in the Dimension City. In the next few days, as they receive more immigrants, it will become busier and busier.

But at this moment, you told me that you were going on an expedition?

Su Mo couldn't help but frown and asked, "Did she say when we were leaving?"

"I told you, the time is ten days later."

Su Mo heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Huh~ That's good, it's enough for me to deal with the matter of Dimension City."

"Okay, I'll take some time to go over there tomorrow and see if there's anything we need to discuss."

"Ah."

Hestia saw this and did not object.

Then, the two went to rest.

……

The next morning, Su Mo returned to the dimensional city and assigned today's work to Chun Ji and the other two girls.

Then he returned to Orario, said hello to Hestia, and walked out, heading towards the Dusk Mansion of Loki's Familia.

Along the way, he attracted many people's attention and they all gave way to him.

Seeing that the adventurers nowadays were so sensible, Su Mo did not disperse them as he did before.

As for these adventurers, when they saw Su Mo walking towards the Loki clan’s base, they got furious again.

Many people followed Su Mo silently, ready to watch the show.

The result was that when Su Mo arrived at the door of the Dusk Hall, the people inside had already heard the noise and came out.

The handsome guy in the lead smiled bitterly at Su Mo and said, "You are really the center of the storm wherever you go."

Su Mo shrugged and smiled, "I can't help it. I don't want to be so high-profile, but my strength doesn't allow it."

Finn made no comment but for the moment extended a hand of friendship.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Finn, the leader of Loki's family."

Su Mo smiled and stretched out his hand to shake his hand.

"Su Mo, the leader of Hestia's clan."

Then Finn invited Su Mo in.

The adventurers outside left somewhat disappointed when they saw that there was nothing exciting to watch.

In the reception room, besides Finn, Riveria and Loki also came.

After Livilia poured the tea, Su Mo got straight to the point and said:

"Tell me, you sent people to look for me so many times, you can't just want to invite me for tea, right?"

Seeing that Su Mo was so direct, Finn didn't keep him in suspense.

"I heard from Hephaestus's Familia that you seem to have been preparing to join our expedition for a long time, right?"

He learned about this from Tsubaki yesterday when he went to the Hephaestus Familia to discuss matters related to assisting in the expedition.

I was just worrying about whether I could cooperate with Hestia's family, but I didn't expect them to come to me on their own initiative.

But Finn thought about it and felt that something was not right.

Because Su Mo had this plan a long time ago, this made him a little undecided. He didn't understand what Su Mo was going to do and whether he had any other purpose.

So he didn't give Chun an accurate answer, but just said he would think about it.

After returning, he immediately asked Livilia to find Su Mo and invite him to come and discuss the matter to see what Su Mo was up to.

In response to Finn's question, Su Mo nodded and acknowledged it.

"Yes."

"Then, can you tell me why you want to join our expedition? This is very important to us. Please answer seriously. Depending on the situation, it will determine whether we agree to your participation."

Finn tried to speak in a gentle tone.

But the hidden meaning of his words was to interrogate Su Mo, "Do you have any shameful purpose?"

But it's not Finn's fault for being so cautious.

Not to mention that an expedition is no small matter. If any member of the team has any bad intentions, it may lead to the sacrifice of the entire team.

Therefore, Finn must eliminate all uncertainties in advance, which is responsible for the lives of his fellow clan members.

Moreover, this large-scale expedition involves not only members of their Loki clan, but also people from other clans.

Finn also needs to be responsible for them. Otherwise, if these people are injured or killed due to his negligence in management, their families behind them will ask him to bear the liability for compensation.

Another problem is Su Mo’s own problem.

His origins are unknown, he is powerful but has no fame, as if this person never existed before.

At the same time, his whereabouts are mysterious. He disappears for a while from time to time, and no one knows what he is doing.

This forced Finn to be more cautious.

The Loki Familia is an old-fashioned clan that survived the last era.

Finn had experienced some real storms in Orario, as well as the war with the 'Dark Faction' that caused a breakdown in the power of Orario.

Although at that time all the clans united and killed all the dark factions.

But Finn couldn't guarantee whether there were any remnants of the dark faction.

In addition, Su Mo was so suspicious and had already prepared to join their expedition early on, which made Finn even more suspicious of Su Mo's character.

After Finn finished speaking, Loki and Livilia beside him also cast scrutinizing glances at Su Mo.

Su Mo didn't care about this, but said calmly:

".‖ I believe you have already learned my purpose from Hephaestus."

"But since you all asked, I'll say it again."

"I come from a secluded place. I was almost isolated from the world before. So even though I have such strength, I don't really know what level I am at."

"I want to join the expedition, firstly to verify my own strength, and secondly, it is also a test for myself, to gain some combat experience and improve myself."

"As for why I want to take a ride with you, it's because if I go deep into the dungeon by myself, it will be very troublesome and I will waste a lot of time on exploration."

"I'm usually very busy and have a lot of personal matters to deal with. It's hard for me to spare a lot of time, so I chose to take your ride."

"I have learned about the average time taken by your expeditions. After careful consideration, I still think that it will take less time for you to lead the way than for me to explore alone."

Although such a large-scale expedition by the Loki family would take less time due to factors such as the number of people and logistics.

However, their experience, perfect logistical support, and even number of people are also advantages.

With so many people, we can use human wave tactics to quickly find the entrance to the next level.

Their experience means that they know the information of various monsters in the deep and can avoid or quickly resolve the battle.

The maturity of the logistics system is also something Su Mo needs to learn.

Although he may not need it himself, Hestia's family does.

In the future, the number of members in Hestia's family will only increase.

Well, even if they are just figureheads (Su Mo’s own family members), there will be many of them.

These people also go into the dungeon to fight monsters and level up, and they always launch expeditions.

It would be better for Su Mo to study in advance to be prepared.

In general, there are many benefits to joining Loki's family on an expedition.

The only drawback is probably that their efficiency is too low.

Ota on Freya's side can complete an expedition in ten days or half a month.

 (Ma Zhaohao) On Loki's side, it usually takes at least half a month, and sometimes even more than a month.

In addition to their large family business, they have to fight for a lot of resources along the way.

The second is large-scale marches, which also take time to mobilize.

In a maze-like dungeon, whether it is exploring the way or searching for resource points to kill monsters, a lot of time will be wasted in the process from dispersing to recalling.

Su Mo also has a solution to this problem. Just one little gadget can help them improve their efficiency.

However, whether to take it out or not depends on whether they agree to his joining.

Finn and Livilia on this side, after hearing Su Mo's words, turned to look at Loki.

Loki looked at Su Mo deeply and nodded to the two of them: "Well, he didn't lie."

After hearing Loki's words, Finn and Livilia stopped scrutinizing Su Mo.

No one can lie before the gods.

This is the consensus of everyone in Orario.

It’s not that the gods have the ability to read minds, and even if they do, they are restricted from using it.

But the gods are experienced and can tell at a glance whether a person is lying or not.

So, after seeing that Loki acknowledged that Su Mo's words were true, Finn and Livilia also chose to believe it.

but……

Su Mo did not say anything, but he also concealed a lot of things in a vague way.

Apart from explaining the purpose of participating in the expedition, what was said just now did not reveal much useful information.

"It's really watertight."
