"Pay attention to maintain formation!"

"Supporters behind, hurry up and follow! Don't fall behind here!"

"Ais! Clear out the monsters coming out of the left wing!"

"Gareth! Frontal breakthrough!"

With the calm command of Finn, the entire Loki Familia expeditionary force is like a precise machine, and everyone is strictly fulfilling their responsibilities and obligations.

Especially the supporters who have little combat power, have no fear at all, and have 100% trust in the combatants around them. Even if a monster rushes close, they still run forward without stopping for a moment.

Obviously, most of these people have long been accustomed to facing monsters countless times more powerful than themselves, and even facing the threat of death.

"What a good team." Allen commented with a smile.

Although others were very nervous, he still acted very relaxed. He only occasionally raised the strange-shaped musket in his hand and named the monsters who broke through the defense line one by one Shot Dead.

The terrifying lethality and accuracy made everyone in Loki Familia look at it with suspicion.

Because so far, no monster has been able to block the bullet fired from the thick metal tube.

More than 90% of them hit key locations such as the eyes, chest, mouth, etc.

And several times the bullets were shot into the monster's body close to his own scalp.

No one with a bit of discernment would think it was a coincidence!

On the contrary, it is a sign of absolute confidence in one's shooting skills and techniques.

"Is this how you fight? A Archer!"

Tiona wielded a huge double-edged sword and knocked a goat-headed monster to the ground, then turned around and asked curiously.

"What, is there a problem?" Allen asked with a smile.

"No! I'm just a little surprised. After all, you always carry a sword behind your back. I thought you used a sword to fight like Ais." Tiona shrugged.

In fact, due to the limited power of crossbows, real first-line adventurers rarely choose long-range weapons. More than 90% of them use close combat weapons such as swords, spears, heavy hammers, and axes.

Because only these weapons can truly allow them to cause enough damage to those huge monsters and Floor Master.

In comparison, the efficiency of converting the elastic potential energy of the bow string into the kinetic energy of the arrow is too low.

It would be nice if there were skills and magic to coordinate with, but if there wasn't, it would be completely useless.

As a bow and arrow user, Allen is well aware of the advantages and disadvantages of this weapon, and has also developed a series of abilities to compensate for it.

Up to now, the power of his arrows has far exceeded that of missiles, and even when struck with full force, it is as powerful as a small tactical nuclear weapon.

But the musket is different!

From the beginning, muskets convert the chemical energy of gunpowder into the kinetic energy of bullets.

In terms of conversion efficiency, it is much better than the crossbow.

So he only needs to wrap the projectiles with Nen abilities to enhance the destructive or penetrating power, and then he can cause astonishing damage to most of the maze. He doesn't even need to inject Chakra with Nature Transformation.

"In my opinion, weapons are just tools for killing, no different from shovels and saws used for work. As a user, the most important thing is not to limit yourself to a certain field, but to switch to the most suitable one as needed. For this team that lacks long-range attacks, muskets are just right."

With that said, Allen and its skillful movements raised "Bug Cannon" again and pulled the trigger.

Bang!

A satyr monster was headshot on the spot, turning into silvery white translucent powder and dispersing in the air.

"Is this guy... really an ordinary person who has not joined any Familia? Is his basic attributes almost surpassing those of a LV5 adventurer?" Bert the Werewolf's eyes flashed with disbelief.

Although he had long known that he could go deep into the thirty-seventh floor alone and even defeated Floor Master Udaios, he would never be that weak.

But the performance of Allen far exceeded expectations.

Especially the thick muzzle of "Bug Cannon", and the loud noise and vibration every time the trigger is pulled, show that this thing is not as easy to control as it seems.

Adventurers with insufficient strength attributes may be knocked down by the shock force at the moment of firing.

But what about Allen?

You can even shoot very coolly with just one hand, and there is no trace of shaking in the entire arm.

This alone shows how great his power is.

In addition, the shooting technique that is always on target, and almost every hit can accurately hit the vital point, shows that he is not inferior in agility and dexterity.

"Just because he doesn't have a family for the time being, it doesn't mean he hasn't received any favors." Riveria gave what he thought was a reasonable explanation.

After all, there are so many gods descending to earth, and not all of them are concentrated in Orario, and there are also many unlucky ones who failed in the struggle and were driven away from the Heavenly Realm.

In addition, there are not only monsters with Dungeon power, there are also many monsters on the ground that contain a lot of magic power in their bodies.

Therefore, the distribution range of adventurers is quite wide. Adventurers who lose their dependents will not lose their power, but they will not be able to see the records of their growth for the time being.

Bete nodded thoughtfully. "It makes sense! But I think he is still hiding himself and has not shown his full strength at all. I believe you, Archmage, should feel the amazing power emanating from that sword the most. I don't believe that people who own such weapons don't know how to use swordsmanship."

"Don't think about it now! Concentrate on dealing with the monsters around you! We'll wait until we reach the safe level to camp."

As one of the "elders" of the family clan, Riveria undoubtedly has a high prestige, and is even nicknamed "mother" by Loki.

So after she spoke, the werewolf immediately shut up and launched a frantic attack on the monster.

Judging from the posture, it seems that he wants to compete with Allen to see who can kill more monsters.

"Sword Princess" on the other side saw this scene and immediately sped up the swing of the long sword in his hand.

"Hahahaha! Bete and Ais's competitive spirit has been aroused!" Dwarves Gareth couldn't help laughing.

"Yes! It seems that inviting Allen is the right decision. At this rate, we should be able to arrive at the safe area on the 39th floor today, at least half a day earlier than expected." Finn also laughed.

Fast speed means that with limited supplies, the expeditionary force can explore deeper at once.

You must know that although Dungeon in this world is very similar to a common maze in games, it does not have any magic teleportation points or scrolls to return to the city.

So every time you go to the deep Dungeon, it means that it will take at least two days to come back.

So far, the only place where you can resupply and rest is the safe area on the 18th floor.

If it goes any deeper, it has exceeded the capabilities of the Orario adventurers, Guild and the family members. Even if they knew there was a safe zone, they would not be able to garrison it for a long time, let alone transport various materials in it.
