[154] Eight Advanced Draws!
[154] Eight Advanced Draws!
Two days later, the expedition team of the Loki Familia finally returned to Orario.
With the return of the expedition team, the news of the Loki Familia's conquest of the 59th floor of the dungeon spread throughout Orario, setting a new record. Moreover, this news would spread rapidly across the world in the coming months.
Orario was the center of this world, and it was no joke. Every day, merchants from all over the world came here, and when they left to return to their hometowns, the legends of this place would accompany them.
After returning, August, whose value was akin to a 'moving warehouse,' faced the appraisal for his performance.
All the magic stones and drops obtained on the way were brought out by August in one go. After the guild's calculations, the total value of the magic stones was 1.1 billion, and the proceeds from selling various monster drops amounted to nearly 1.5 billion.
Some special drops, like those from all dragon monsters, were not sold. Even if they were to be sold, it would have to be through an auction. Each of these items was worth tens of millions, and selling them directly would mean taking a big loss.
Nevertheless, even with this, the overall income of the Loki Familia reached a staggering 2.6 billion valis.
This number shocked Finn. The incident where August destroyed a large number of magic stones in the Dragon's Vase was instantly forgotten.
Compared to the past, the earnings this time more than doubled. Going to the dungeon in the past required carrying a large amount of goods and supplies, which not only slowed down the progress but also resulted in the loss of many magic stones and materials along the way to save space.
Now, none of these was a problem because August's treasury ensured that not a single resource went to waste.
Delighted, the distribution of funds for all expedition members also doubled. August alone received over 100 million.
Even so, nearly one billion valis entered the familia's treasury. The Loki Familia, which had almost depleted its resources, suddenly became wealthy again.
As for August, he became the golden boy of the entire familia.
This news was not limited to the Loki Familia, it spread throughout Orario. Countless familia members came to invite August, as exploration-based familia were not exclusive to the Loki Familia.
The prices offered were astonishing, some directly offering several million valis, others offering one-fifth or even one-third of all profits. However, without exception, August rejected all of them.
Since he wasn't short of money and had a wife who was a skilled blacksmith, he could easily become the richest person in Orario if he wanted. Given this situation, August avoided the constant stream of visitors by taking Ais and running to manor.
He left all the troubles to Finn, the familia captain. Although Finn was tearful, he had no choice. After all, who told him that August was the golden boy?
This situation continued for nearly a week until it gradually subsided.
Then, around ten days later, on the 37th floor of the dungeon, in Udaeus's main room, August and Ottar were present.
August stood on one side, and Ottar, covered in wounds, leaned on his greatsword, half-kneeling on the ground, with wounds all over his body and panting heavily.
As for the originally flat ground, it looked like it had suffered a destructive blow, full of pits and gullies everywhere.
"You won!"
Ottar said slowly, his heart feeling desolate.
He had actually lost to this man. In less than four months, the other party surpassed years of Ottar's efforts.
[Ding!]
[Congratulations, Host, for completing the mission: 'Orario Strongest Adventurer: Defeat the current strongest adventurer, Ottar.' Completion Reward: Advanced Gacha Draw *3!]
The final system mission was finally completed, and August smiled with satisfaction.

August's strength had now reached level 7, and his falna status had reached level 5. Overall, his strength could now be compared to an level 8 adventurer.
This level 7 strength was obtained a few days ago when he visited Freya again and advanced with the help of a massive amount of lust.
August didn't expect that the gap between level 6 and level 7 would be so vast, he was just a little short.
While August was happy, Ottar had already stood up, sheathed his large sword behind him again, and silently headed deeper into the dungeon.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"Training, getting stronger."
"Uh~"
August suddenly had some doubts if he had stimulated Ottar too much.
But he didn't think too much about it. After all, he and Ottar had no relationship, and the challenge was just to complete the mission.
Because August had already planned to use the ticket for a world travel. After all, the time in this world would freeze.
This world was still quite deep. There were so many gods existing, and there was also this living dungeon, plus the Corrupted Spirit at the deepest part of the dungeon and the One Eyed Black Dragon on this continent.
All of this was troublesome. In this world, August was still too weak.
So, August wanted to do a world travel and go to the next world to seek new opportunities.
Of course, all of this was a story for later. For now, the most important thing was to draw gacha.
August directly opened the gacha draw interface, and the familiar roulette appeared, starting to spin.
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining item: Large Magic Potion *500!]
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining item: Large Health Potion *500!]
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining item: Identity Card!]
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining equipment: Murakumogiri!]
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining equipment: Enma!]
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining skill: Great Spiralling Ring!]
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining item: Wild Scroll *10!]
[Ding, congratulations, Host, for obtaining item: Speed Scroll *10!]
Looking at his gacha draw results this time, August was slightly stunned. This outcome might not be considered great, but it wasn't bad either. At least there were consumables.
