Chapter 518: Differential Treatment? (Please Subscribe!)

The location is the entrance gate outside the artificial labyrinth.

Under Riviria’s leadership, those who remained behind are currently conducting intelligence gathering in an orderly manner.

It has been several hours since Finn led his team to invade the labyrinth.

During this time, Loki has been guarding outside the artificial maze and has become increasingly unable to hide her growing concern.

“Finn is trapped inside…? Although I anticipated this possibility, what do you think, Riviria?”

“Have you sensed something, Loki?”

The elven beauty directed her gaze toward her superior deity, furrowing her brows as she inquired.

As the one who bestows the “Blessings of the Gods,”

there exists a connection between deities and their Familial Groups that only they can feel.

It’s a subtle sensation difficult to describe with words, allowing deities to roughly sense the condition of their members—such as when they’re near death—or even direct death.

If the latter occurs, the connection brought by the “Blessing of the Gods” will be severed outright.

This isn’t much of a secret among adventurers; it’s quite common knowledge.

Riviria asked because she had keenly noticed the shift in Loki’s emotions beneath her calm exterior.

Even though nothing was outwardly expressed, Riviria could sense that Loki was starting to get irritated.

Unlike her usual loud yelling when chasing Izay, Loki’s anger towards outsiders doesn’t manifest in verbal expressions.

The malevolent deity prefers direct action for retribution.

In response to Riviria’s inquiry, Loki slowly opened her crimson divine eyes, her sharp gaze piercing into the darkness at the labyrinth’s entrance.

“Finn ran into trouble earlier… I don’t know if it was a trap or what… but his condition wasn’t good.”

“What…!?”

Riviria, who was on standby outside, learned a snippet of the labyrinth situation from Loki. Her usually composed demeanor began to falter.

Although they had anticipated it might be a trap before entering the labyrinth,

the fact that the trap could actually harm the leader of their Loki Familia surprised Riviria.

Or rather, the Dark Faction’s forces were indeed surprising to the Loki Familia.

“So, what should we do now, Loki? Should we go in and support them?”

This thought immediately arose in Riviria’s mind.

Leaving some members outside beforehand was precisely for handling unexpected situations.

Upon hearing this, Loki smiled as she looked at the slightly anxious face of the elf: “I did have that thought… but the situation inside changed faster than I expected. I said ‘earlier,’ right?”

“Earlier” implied that the crisis on Finn’s side had already passed?

Riviria suddenly realized.

She first fell into shock and worry after being informed of this news, failing to notice the initial word Loki used.

“It’s probably because Izay came to the rescue… That guy may be annoying most of the time, but he’s reliable in critical moments.” Loki rolled her eyes.

Through the “Blessings of the Gods” connection, she could vaguely sense the situation when Finn got into trouble.

And Izay could further grasp the information through magic.

Once Izay caught the message, there was no way he would sit idly by.

This also contributed to Loki’s growing impatience.

The crisis within this artificial labyrinth was capable of harming even Finn, requiring Izay’s intervention to resolve the situation.

What kind of trap could achieve such results?

Loki was very curious about this!

At the same time, she was also intrigued by the individual who unleashed divine power inside not long ago!

(There’s someone hiding in their little rat hole, blatantly ignoring the rules of the game… interesting… which peer could it be?)

The crimson-haired goddess glanced down at the ground.

“Let’s move a bit, Riviria.”

“Do you want me to assist you?”

“Yes. Your second-stage attack magic can identify all humans and monsters within the magic circle. Please deploy the magic circle over a wide area and interrupt it just before the flames erupt. We’ll roughly check the interior of the artificial labyrinth.”

Although this method is inefficient and extremely draining on magic,

it’s better than doing nothing while we stay here.

“Understood, I’ll give it a try.” Riviria nodded lightly upon receiving Loki’s order.

Subsequently, the two of them greeted the still-shocked members nearby, took along one supporter, and commenced their operation.

…

Near the tenth floor of the labyrinth.

With the first reunion of the dispersed teams of the Loki Familia, the subsequent situation became straightforward.

Under the enhancement of perception magic, Izay didn’t take much time to find the team led by Tiona and Tione.

The two Amazon girls made a grand entrance accompanied by a thunderous roar.

After suppressing the assassin group, those people, in search of survival, even unleashed a monster army.

Despite the final full-scale defeat of the monster horde, a few individuals managed to escape.

For this, Tiona and Tione, who wanted to completely annihilate the enemies, felt regretful but decided against rash pursuit.

Instead, they discussed how to locate the exit.

After this battle, Haruhi’s magic was thoroughly exposed. Those few escapees would undoubtedly convey the message to the remaining remnants of the Dark Faction.

So, they decided to no longer conceal themselves.

Using Haruhi’s magic to upgrade Tiona.

Absorbing the power of rank elevation, wielding the powerful weapon “Ulgah,” and having mastered the Development Ability “Shatter,” Tiona could barely exert herself to break through the rare metal walls inside the labyrinth.

Not knowing how to navigate the maze, the two girls simply proceeded violently forward.

When Izay found them, their team left a trail of holes behind them, forming a rough straight line.

“That’s a bit too reckless… You could have just waited for me to find you. This consumes a lot of energy, Tiona. And Haruhi, how much of your magic power remains?”

“No problem! I’m full of energy! It feels like I have endless strength!”

“I’m fine too, Master Izay… With the recovery from Spiritual Medicine, this level of consumption is nothing.”

In response to Izay’s sigh, Tiona cheerfully replied with boundless vitality, whereas Haruhi, contrasting sharply with her, gently explained.

Then, Izay gave Tiona a disapproving glare: “With Haruhi giving you buffs, of course you won’t feel tired! Take my complaints and concerns somewhere else.”

“What? Izay, your differential treatment is so obvious! You’re blinded by beauty!”
