Chapter 85: A Chance for Achievement
The next day.
Shun went to the Babel Tower to brush up against monsters as usual.
And because of the hustle and bustle all the way, he had to run to a stall to buy a black robe and put it on. Then he blended into the crowd and finally arrived at the Babel Tower to prepare to queue up.
Shun, who was bowing his head, became stiff, and suddenly felt a very hot sight.
He often felt the burning longing gaze in the Amazoness' eyes. But this time, her gaze was like a volcano about to erupt, hot and frightening like erupting magma. It seemed to melt him at any moment, wanting to burn him or even swallow him into her belly. It was truly frightening.
Shun unconsciously looked up and found that the gaze came from the Babel Tower.
The Babel Tower was a facility on behalf of the Guild.
To provide convenience for adventurers, the Guild had built many public facilities here. For example, there were hundreds of bathrooms scattered around the lobby on the first floor, allowing adventurers who smelled of blood to take a bath before leaving without disturbing the city's appearance. The second floor was a simple restaurant and a treatment office, and the third floor had several exchange offices exactly the same as those in the Guild, used to exchange magic stones and dropped items.
But on the upper level of the Babel Tower, there were the residences of the gods.
Shun suddenly realized something, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the Babel Tower indifferently.
"Why, seeing my leveling speed, you can't stay quiet anymore?"
The only one who lived in the Babel Tower and wanted him so much was the Goddess of Beauty, Freya.
The main god of the Freya Familia. The goddess of beauty with unparalleled beauty. Together with the Loki Familia, they were called the strongest Familias in Orario.
Freya, who always had a charming smile on her lips. Her beauty was extraordinary even among the gods and had captivated the hearts of many male gods. She lived at the top of Orario's towering skyscraper, the Babel Tower.
The Goddess of Beauty and Love, Freya crazily immersed herself in something called love. In the past, she had become obsessed with beautiful-souled people more than once, and she didn't hesitate to use any means to bring them into her embrace one by one. Including a strong man named Ottar, even members of the Freya Familia, almost everyone had received Freya's love.
Freya's love was very noble. Because only those who had a very pure and charming soul could gain her love. She was also very cheap. Because as long as someone's soul was very pure and charming, and chosen by her, whoever it was, they would be loved by her.
Therefore, Freya was very noble and cheap, and Shun didn't want this kind of attention at all.
He stopped and stared at the towering white tower for a long time, with a cold look in his eyes.
"I'm not interested in women like you, and I hope you don't interfere…"
Shun finished speaking softly, then put on a black robe, hid his face, and slowly walked into the Dungeon to continue his leveling journey.

Time passed slowly.
Floor 19 was like the inside of a cave, the room was very dark. Rocks towered everywhere. The walls, floor, and ceiling were all made of dark stone, with a little moist air flying around.
An almost bottomless corridor extended forward. The road had no turns, but no end was visible, as if it could lead people to hell.
Besides, in the corners of the walls, there were well-shaped caves leading downwards, looking like traps.
The vertical cave actually led to the next floor.
There were many caves like this in the middle levels. Therefore, for skilled adventurers, they could use this cave and ignore the rampaging monsters to rush to the next floor as quickly as possible.
And for adventurers who had just reached the Middle Floor, this was truly a trap.
Because you could only go down into these caves, but not climb up.
Unless you could fly, or had a way to climb the wall, once you fell, you would immediately be surrounded by monsters on the next floor before you even finished conquering this floor. This would definitely be a narrow escape.
Besides, starting from the Middle Floor, monsters began to have some special abilities. For example, the monster called Hellhound could spew burning flames and perform ranged attacks. Monsters appeared more often than on the Upper Floor. If you weren't careful, there would only be a dead end.
Of course, this risk belonged to ordinary Level 2 teams.
The Hellhound's rough skin was charcoal black, its size was similar to a dog but it had a large body half the height of a human. They moved forward with their limbs close to the ground lamp.
If an ordinary team encountered dozens of Hellhounds, they might have to return to the Upper Floor, or a full team of seven, eight, or even ten people would be able to compete.
For Shun, this was just a daily drawing experience.
*WHOOSH!*
With such speed that the entire cave echoed with the faint sound of breaking through the air, before the Hellhound could react while still suppressing the flames in its mouth, the sword in Shun's hand slashed it.
Pu-chi!
The sharp sound of tearing flesh echoed, and the sharp blade directly cut the Hellhound's neck, slicing through the hard flesh, and emerged from the back of its neck without obstruction.
In an instant, the entire Hellhound turned into black smoke and disappeared, and a blue-purple crystal fell to the cold ground.
The cruel killing continued until the magic stones on the ground piled up into a small mound. Shun stopped fighting. He took out his pocket watch and checked the time.
"It's very easy to get Excelia, but who should I turn to to achieve achievements?"
Achievements were achievements recognized by the gods. The most common ones were challenging dangerous enemies, breaking through the upper limit of martial arts, or performing heroic deeds that ordinary people couldn't achieve.
And if Shun wanted to break through…
"I'm afraid I have to rely on my swordsmanship to kill the Level 6 Floor Boss, or the best on Level 6 to almost reach the standard."
Shun wanted to break through the bottleneck back to the Hostess of Fertility in distress, but he saw two girls from the Apollo Familia waiting at the door with an invitation letter for a long time. They looked at him with unbridled pity.
Apollo?
At this moment, a bold idea came to Shun's mind!
