The Strongest Mercenary of Naruto

Chapter 531 Rivera Town
In the dungeon ravaged by monsters, the No.18 floor is one of the few safe floors that will not spawn monsters. It is deeply trusted by adventurers and is used as a stronghold and rest area by senior adventurers who often enter the lower floors.

Moreover, compared with other floors where the environment is relatively barren, the environment here is almost exactly the same as the field on the ground. It is an underground world full of crystals and natural vegetation, so it is also called [Maze Paradise].

The first thing that catches the eye is the majestic and vast prairie. A piece of green grass that is not easy to see from the ground occupies most of the field of vision, and there are some crystal aggregations of different sizes and shapes mixed in it. body.

The area on the left is an extremely wide lake, and the area on the right is a vast forest.

Near the center of the prairie in the distance, there stands a huge tree that can be seen clearly even through the tree hole. Like a lighthouse, it is used by adventurers as a reference sign to identify the direction.

Looking up from the big tree that reaches the sky, you can see a ceiling that is extremely high from the ground, inlaid with countless crystals, like blooming chrysanthemums, growing in every corner.

The colors of these crystals are divided into two types, the middle is white like the sun, and the periphery is blue with gradual shades, forming a unique and beautiful 'crystal sky'.

"It's so beautiful, so there will be such a beautiful scenery in the underground city."

"Crystal. Lots of crystals"

Saya and Lonit, who came to the No.18 floor for the first time, admired the surrounding environment with dumbstruck eyes, while Lyu, who had already been here, was much calmer.

"It is indeed an incredible floor." Uchiha Kazuhiko was equally impressed by the magic of the dungeon, and then turned to Lyu and asked, "Lyu, I heard that there is a town on the eighteenth floor, do you know the way?"

"Well, it's on the peak of that island." Lyu nodded lightly, and pointed to an island in the lake area on the left.

"Let's go, go to the town here to rest first, and officially explore the lower level tomorrow."

Led by Lyu, the group quickly came to the highest point of the island, a beautiful village town decorated with white crystals and blue crystals growing on the ground—【Rivella Town】.

At the entrance of the town, there is an arch made of wooden pillars and flags, on which is written in the common language [Welcome to the town of Riviera! 】Slogan.

"It's not the guild that runs this town, but the adventurers, so there are no complicated regulations or lords here, and they all do business according to their own wishes. The only restriction is that you can't fight in the town."

After entering the town, Uchiha Kazuhiko and the others looked around frequently, looking for the hotel while listening to Lyu's introduction of the situation in Rivera Town.

This town is located in a vast dungeon, surrounded by lakes, and its geographical conditions can be used as a small fortress. Although the city wall made of terrain, crystals and rocks is not as thick as Olalie's city wall, it is still enough for adventurers to feel at ease .

It was originally a stronghold that the guild intended to set up in the maze, but it was shelved due to some unknown reasons in the middle of construction, so it was taken over by adventurers, and gradually built a complete town.

When adventurers attack floors below No. 18, they usually use this place as a stronghold, repeating the process of lodging, exploring, and lodging, and will not return to the ground for supplies until their physical strength and supplies are exhausted.

Of course, you can also choose to resupply in the small town, but due to the difficulty of transporting materials in the underground city, the prices of weapons, props, food and other items here are several times more expensive than those on the ground.

Not many family members can bear the high price, and those who can afford it will not spend money wrongly. Only adventurers in emergency situations will buy some temporarily with heartache.

Although the No. 18th floor is a safe floor, it is still in the maze after all, so once an abnormal situation occurs, the town will always be destroyed miserably.

Fortunately, there are many adventurers above the third level stationed here, who can quickly solve the abnormal situation and rebuild it. If you count it time and time again, the current Rivera Town is about 334 generations old.

For this reason, there is a strange and chilling atmosphere here. Adventurers or supporters walking on the street are fully armed, ready to fight immediately in case of emergency.

Under Lyu's guidance, everyone came to a hotel with a good environment to check in. After having a dinner with No. 18 floor's specialty [Dungeon Sandwich] as the staple food, they each returned to their rooms to rest.

The next day, everyone left Rivera Town and stepped into the No.19 floor in high spirits.

……

Bell, who stayed in Orari, finished today's training and went to the Adventurer's Guild to report the recent situation to Miss Aegina.

When Miss Aegina learned that Kazuhiko Uchiha and the others had ventured into the lower floors, she made the same suggestion to Bell, who started his own adventure—to find a supporter.

Heartbroken, Bell decided to start looking for supporters, so he went to the central square of the Tower of Babel.

Just as Bell was thinking about how to recruit supporters, a dog-man girl came to him and asked politely: "Hi, big brother with white hair, do you need supporters?"

Bell saw the familiar face of the other party, and the memory of yesterday in the alley was awakened, and he said in surprise: "Hey... are you the girl from yesterday?"

However, what Bell didn't expect was that the other party turned his head cutely to one side, and said in confusion: "Have you seen Lily, brother? Lily doesn't remember."

"Uh... Maybe I remembered it wrong, ahaha."

Bell looked at each other in astonishment, only to realize that the girl in front of him was a canine, while the girl from yesterday was a little human, and suddenly let out a few embarrassing laughs.

"Is that so?" The dog-man girl who called herself Lily showed a comprehending expression, and asked again: "Brother, how are you doing? Do you need a supporter?"

Bell scratched his cheek and said embarrassedly: "If you don't mind that I'm a LV.1 rookie, I'd be happy for you to join my team."

"I don't mind."

Lily looked into Bell's eyes, emitting a strange radiance. For her goal, of course, she would not mind Bell's novice status, and even said that the strength of LV.1 was more in line with her wishes.

"Lily's name is Lililuka Erde, you can call me Lily, I belong to [Sumo Familia], how about you, brother?" Lily made a brief self-introduction, and then asked for Bell's information.

"I'm Bell Crone, and I belong to [Hestia Familia]."

The seemingly innocent Lily made Bell unguarded against her. After answering her question, he took Lily into the dungeon together to start the first cooperative expedition.
