"Li Yu, you've done so many bad things!" At this moment, in a huge room on the sixteenth floor, Xia Yu looked at her crooked weapon and was on the verge of tears.

She spent a fortune to buy this, but now? It's completely ruined, just scrap metal. Li Yu led them to this monster's room and then just watched the show from the sidelines.

Li Yu left the students in the class to deal with the monsters on their own, and even went outside to lure more monsters, making the situation much more difficult for them.

Sure enough, her weapon was completely destroyed, and so were others. Everyone's weapons were useless at this point. Now, whose weapon could still be of any use?

That naturally meant Li Yu and Asuna and their group. The rest of the people had their weapons rendered useless, and their teamwork was far from perfect.

"Alright, stop talking nonsense. I'll reforge you when we get back. And tell me, has everyone's teamwork been improved?" Hearing Xia Yu's words, Li Yu couldn't help but roll his eyes. What was there to yell about? It was already about to break down.

Although the weapons were broken, the gains were quite good. These guys had already developed some initial teamwork, which made Li Yu very gratified.

It wasn't for nothing that Li Yu brought in so many monsters; otherwise, everyone wouldn't have progressed so quickly. Although these guys are exhausted, it was all worth it, wasn't it?

"Alright, stop looking so gloomy. Pack your things and then we'll go back." Li Yu looked at the Magic Stone scattered on the floor of the monster's room, said this, and then told everyone to get to work.

Although it was only a short two or three hours, the monsters never stopped. Li Yu kept running out to bring back more monsters, which meant that everyone had no time to rest.

Even during breaks, everyone takes turns, which is why everyone's weapons are damaged, and now the ground is covered with a layer of Magic Stone.

All of this was the result of everyone's battle this morning. Hearing Li Yu's words, everyone dragged their tired bodies and began to tidy up. After all the Magic Stone were piled up...

Li Yu then went up and put all the stones into his Space Ring. All the Magic Stone and materials were handled by Li Yu.

After all, everyone now knows that Li Yu is going to forge weapons for everyone, which will definitely require a lot of materials and money. Let's sell these things.

After collecting all the Magic Stone, Li Yu led his classmates towards the Upper Floors. On the way back, no one else fought; Li Yu single-handedly slaughtered all the monsters they encountered.

The higher Upper Floors, the more people returned to Orario. Li Yu and the others followed the flow of people and returned to the surface before the Dungeon closed.

When Li Yu and his group emerged from the Dungeon, he noticed that many people were looking at them with curiosity, which made Li Yu frown.

What's going on? Why are they suddenly receiving so much attention? Li Yu noticed that many people in the square were staring at them.

After a moment's thought, Li Yu didn't pursue the matter further. Instead, he led everyone to the guild to dispose of some things and purchase some materials.

When Li Yu and his group arrived at the guild, it was the busiest time of day, as many people had just come out of the Dungeon and were here to deal with the Magic Stone and materials they had.

On the way to the guild, Li Yu said, "Those who don't have any materials with them can wait outside. There are a lot of people inside. Those who have materials can come in with me."

Hearing Li Yu's arrangement, everyone nodded. Instead of going in with Li Yu, they waited outside the guild. Those with Space Backpack went into the guild with Li Yu.

Li Yu found the familiar counter and started queuing. This was the counter where Eina worked, and it was also the first counter that Li Yu had encountered when they first came to this world.

After waiting for a while, it was soon Li Yu and the others' turn. When Eina saw that it was Li Yu, she was also stunned. She naturally had a deep impression of these people.

"Has Mr. Li Yu returned from the Dungeon? Is he going to process some materials? If there's a lot, how about we go somewhere else?" Eina glanced at Li Yu and his companions behind him.

She knew very well that these people possessed spatial ITEM, so they definitely didn't have just what they were carrying.

"Thank you for your trouble." Li Yu nodded. He didn't even need to ask; this elf lady was indeed very perceptive. Without him saying anything, she directly told everyone to move to another place.

"Please wait in the reception room. I'll have my colleague come and help you." With that, Eina hurriedly got up and went to the back room to call for help.

Seeing this, Li Yu immediately walked towards the reception room. When he arrived, the door opened, Eina gestured for everyone to come in quickly, as someone else had taken over her work position.

After everyone entered the reception room, Li Yu said, "I have quite a few Magic Stone to deal with, and I also plan to order a batch of materials from the guild."

Li Yu stated his needs directly, then found a place to release all the Magic Stone he had. Seeing this, the others also emptied the Magic Stone they had stored in their Space Backpack.

In just a few moments, the huge room was filled with Magic Stone. Eina was a little terrified by the sight; there were so many!

She had underestimated Li Yu and the others; she had thought there wouldn't be many, but the result was somewhat unexpected. Seeing this, Eina quickly said, "Please wait a moment, I need to find others to help."

After saying that, Eina ran out to find her colleagues to help count the Magic Stone and materials. Just how many monsters had these people killed?

"Hehe, this really surprised them." Xia Yu chuckled at what the other person was doing; wasn't this just like hauling a truckload of coins to a bank in their world?

"Other Familia don't bring back everything like we do. They usually only bring back larger Magic Stone, which they've carefully selected." Li Yu clearly understood why.

Some expeditionary teams wouldn't even glance at the lower-level Magic Stone; they would kill monsters and continue forward, only daring to look at the deeper-level Magic Stone.

Even when the team couldn't fit everything, they would throw away some low-value items, since the Familia in this world didn't have such Space Backpack.

Li Yu and his group were all like mobile warehouses, so they accepted anything that could be exchanged for money.

However, this is all for the sake of development, so it's normal to put all sorts of things in there, isn't it? Even a mosquito's leg is still meat.

While everyone was chatting, Eina returned quickly, bringing three colleagues with her. They were also stunned by what they saw inside.

However, none of them paid any attention to it. Instead, they got busy. Someone found baskets and started to appraise the Magic Stone. The guild had its own set of appraisal methods.

They just put them on the scale; there's no need to count them one by one. Because of this, the process is quite fast. The only problem is dealing with the materials.

This required sorting and then purchasing according to the guild's recycling prices. Seeing this, Li Yu and the others simply helped out, and Xia Yu even went out to call in some people.

With everyone's help, the spoils of this trip were tallied in just half an hour. Looking at the data she had recorded, Eina couldn't help but exclaim, "This is truly remarkable! Mr. Li Yu, the value of your goods this time is 9.53 million Valis!"

Hearing this, Li Yu nodded and then said, "Then please help me exchange it for some materials; I need some materials for forging weapons."

Li Yu rattled off a series of material names. Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Eina quickly wrote them down. Only after Li Yu finished speaking did she repeat what she had recorded.

After confirming there were no problems, Eina couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Li Yu, are you planning to replace all 953W Valis with these materials?"

Upon hearing Eina's confirmation, Li Yu nodded and then said, "Let's make up ten million, I'll cover the rest!"

It's still uncertain whether these materials will be enough. Li Yu actually kept some of the materials that Li Yu and the others processed; otherwise, Li Yu gains this time would have been even greater.

There's no way around it; Li Yu and his group pick up all sorts of trash, as long as they can carry it, that's why they have so much. Other Familia would be laughing all the way to the bank if they managed to make a few million in two or three days.

This doesn't even take into account the costs. If you factor in all of that, you don't actually earn much from a single Dungeon. That's why most people choose to bring back valuable items.

"Okay, I understand. I'll go and have someone prepare right away." Eina said and left, while Li Yu and the others waited patiently.

About ten minutes later, Eina returned and said directly to Li Yu, "Mr. Li Yu, please move aside. The items are ready, but there are quite a few, so you'll need to go and take them yourselves."

Upon hearing Eina's words, everyone hurriedly stood up and followed her to the warehouse at the back of the guild, where Eina had already packed up a lot of materials.

Upon arriving, Eina explained the price and quantity of the materials to Li Yu. Only after confirming that everything was in order did she let Li Yu put them away.

By the time they finished, it was completely dark. Li Yu, Asuna, and the others packed up all the materials and said goodbye to Eina, "Thank you for your hard work, Miss Eina. We'll take our leave now."

"You're welcome, Mr. Li Yu. I hope you'll have an even better harvest next time." Eina smiled gently upon hearing this, and after seeing Li Yu and the others off, she returned to her work station.

When Li Yu and the others came out of the guild, the students outside were getting impatient, some even swatting mosquitoes. After confirming that everyone was there, he said, "Let's go back to the Familia."

After saying that, Li Yu led everyone toward the Hestia Familia, and the others quickly followed.

Although it was evening, Orario was at its liveliest, with many adventurers returning from the Dungeon enjoying drinks and conversation in the various taverns.

The aroma of various foods and drinks filled the streets and alleys of Orario. Nighttime was the time for adventurers to let loose, and some would not return from the Dungeon for ten days or half a month.

Having enjoyed the food and drinks again, they were thoroughly having a blast, especially at the Pleasure Quarter, where business was booming in the evening. One wonders how many customers those people were serving each day?

However, all this noise had nothing to do with Li Yu and his group. The group walked through the bustling streets and headed towards the outskirts of the East District. Although many restaurant owners along the way wanted to invite Li Yu and his group to sit Li Yu, they ignored them all.

On his way back to the Hestia Familia, Li Yu suddenly felt a burning gaze upon him, and Li Yu frowned upon feeling it.

He turned to look in the direction of the Babel Tower. The others looked puzzled, and Asuna couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Li Yu shook his head upon hearing Asuna's words. He turned and continued walking forward, saying as he went, "It's nothing, I just feel like someone is watching us!"

He knew perfectly well who was watching him. If he wasn't mistaken, it was probably Freya. Li Yu couldn't think of anyone else but Freya to give him such an intense gaze and a feeling of being watched.

Upon hearing this, everyone frowned. Could it be some kind of enemy? But then they thought about it and didn't take it to heart. At worst, they could just kill another batch later!

"It's so dazzling... Heh... Hehehe... Hehehe~~!" At the top of the Babel Tower, Freya sat on the ground in a duck-like posture, the expensive carpet now soaked through.

As for how she got wet, don't worry about that. Freya covered her eyes and trembled all over, tears streaming down her face. At that moment, she was completely soaked.

Just one glance was enough to overwhelm her eyes and even her body. She had never seen such a dazzling soul and talent, a talent so good that even the gods would be jealous, actually appearing in a human?

Hestia, Loki, Hephaestus, these gods, could all see Li Yu's talent, let alone Freya, who possessed the "eye that sees the essence of souls." In her eyes, Li Yu was like a flashbang, incomparably dazzling.

She only glanced at him before turning away completely. Freya sat slumped for a long time before slowly getting up. Although she really wanted to take him into her possession, Li Yu's status made her dare not do anything for the time being.

After all... the other party comes from another world, and there are two dangerous individuals there. And that's only what's publicly known; who knows how many are secretly involved?

Perhaps Ouranos knew, after all, without his permission, the other party could not have come here so easily. For various reasons, Freya dared not make any other moves at the moment.

However... it's possible to let some fools try it out. Freya pondered this as she headed to the bathroom. She was truly unwilling to give up if she couldn't have his favor...

Li Yu was unaware of these things. Although he knew Freya was watching him, Li Yu didn't take it too seriously. After all, with Nangong Natsuki and the others around, and the safety ropes on them, Li Yu felt fearless in this world.

At worst, I can activate that True Magic and send myself back. By then, I'll be stronger, and those guys I can't beat now will be in for a world of trouble.

At this moment, Li Yu had already returned to the Familia with his classmates. Hestia, who was in the Familia, was eagerly waiting. When she saw Li Yu and the others in the darkness, she ran out and told the cooks to hurry up and prepare dinner.

After giving these instructions, Hestia ran to the entrance of the Familia and waited. The people near the Familia also saw the petite figure waiting in the dim light.

When she saw Li Yu and the others approaching, she rushed over without saying a word, her face beaming with a happy smile. She smiled even more when she discovered that Li Yu had no wounds and the others were unharmed.
