Chapter 82 - Floor Boss? Goliath!

Chapter 82 - Floor Boss? Goliath!

Since no one had been severely injured, the rest time wasn't too long.

After treating all injuries of the familia members, the entire team, under Finn's command, continued moving forward.

This time, learning from the experience of the previous monster attack that assaulted the center of their team, everyone became extra vigilant.

Finn also made some adjustments to the expedition team's formation, ensuring they had enough teammates around for support in case of an ambush.

The upper floors of the dungeon were not unfamiliar to Loki Familia. Most members had been here more than once.

After regrouping, the team's speed increased.

In less than a day, the team approached the 17th floor.

During this process, Luke finally encountered one of the most representative monsters in the dungeon, the 'Minotaur.'

Swish!

A slash cut the Minotaur in half, and Luke turned around, continuing to roam on the edge of the team.

Luke's current task was to act as a free ranger. Whenever he saw a familia member struggling, he would intervene to rescue them.

At this point, Lv1 adventurers were struggling to keep up.

Without the assistance of Lv3 or higher adventurers, casualties might have occurred.

Theoretically, Lv1 adventurers were already at their limit near the 10th floor.

The members of Loki familia had pushed their limits by following the main force deep into the mid-floors of the dungeon.

Even so, they were way past their limits, waiting to cross the 17th floor and enter the safe 18th floor.

Those Lv1 adventurers who couldn't keep up would be left behind by Finn and the others on the 18th floor.

They would wait until the expedition was over before returning to the surface with the rest of the team.

But all of this depended on the team passing their first hurdle now.

On the 17th floor of the dungeon, the Monster Rex, the Floor Boss, Goliath!

As the expedition team reached the entrance of the 17th floor, in places where the Floor Boss already existed or was about to respawn, no other monsters would be present.

This was why the Floor Boss was also referred to as the 'Floor King' - a solitary ruler in the dungeon floor.

However, just as Finn was preparing to strategize against Goliath, Luke approached him.

"Finn, can you leave this Floor Boss to me?"

"...Are you serious?"

Finn looked at Luke and carefully confirmed with him.

"My strength, among the familia members, you're the only one who has faced me. You should be the most aware."

Luke waved his hand dismissively at Finn and walked towards the respawn location of the Monster Rex ahead.

"Do you really think I can't defeat Goliath alone?"

Watching Luke's departing figure, Finn, somewhat resigned, thrust his spear into the ground and shouted to the expedition team behind him, "Everyone, rest in place!"

Upon hearing Finn's command and seeing Luke's actions, almost everyone understood what was about to happen.

Without paying much attention to the commotion in the team, Riveria and Gareth quickly arrived by Finn's side.
