Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 533 - 482: Forming a Team

Now inside suite number 4.

Finaris felt the strong Holy Light Energy emanating from outside the door.

Even though the person outside tried to restrain it, for Finaris, who is extremely sensitive to Holy Light Energy, the person outside was like someone holding a flashlight in the dead of night.

Kane also realized who was knocking on the door and walked over with a smile to open it.

As the door to the suite opened, the trio standing outside turned out to be Funa and the others.

The two little angels flew in through the crack of the door, showing no concern at all.

Only Funa smiled awkwardly, and finally greeted Kane, saying, "Master Kane, long time no see."

"You too." Kane smiled, then fully opened the door and gestured politely, "Come in quickly, don’t just stand outside."

After Funa entered, Kane closed the door.

"Kreya, long time no see," Funa said with a smile.

Then she opened her arms and tightly hugged Kreya, like they were best friends.

Indeed, considering their relationship, they could be counted as best friends.

After all, they share a common passion: a longing for culinary skills.

Meanwhile, Xi had already started playing with Lilulu, and was brought over to meet Finaris.

Finaris was somewhat shocked; she hadn’t expected to see angels.

Angels have a high status in many worlds that have religions and gods.

And the world Finaris came from was invaded by demons, making it impossible not to know about angels.

Not to mention, she was a saintess of a certain religion, and angels naturally exist beside the god they serve.

But this also allowed her to indirectly understand the diversity of races outside her world.

Fortunately, since gaining her freedom, Finaris was in a carefree state, so even when facing angels, who had high status in her former world, she showed no reaction.

She quickly became familiar with playing alongside Xi and Lilulu.

Meanwhile, Rui was near Longbei and even started chatting idly with Burton.

Previously, at the World Restaurant, exchanges with Longbei and the others had built a decent relationship.

"We haven’t been apart for long, but I didn’t expect you to want to create your own battle group so soon."

Funa remarked with some sentiment.

The reason they chose to create a battle group is because Golden-level Explorers can only create battle groups, while guilds require colored-level powerful figures.

The majority of the forces Kane and the others had encountered were battle groups, along with some world-class forces.

The ones in the middle had never really been approached.

Upon hearing Funa’s words, Kreya said, "No choice, when opportunities arise, we can’t let them go to waste."

Though Funa didn’t know what opportunity Kreya was referring to, for an Explorer, seizing an opportunity was essential.

Funa felt the creation of a battle group at their Silver level wasn’t problematic.

Most battle groups and guilds aren’t truly established when they reach their level; foundations are usually set earlier.

It’s only when their strength reaches the necessary level that they openly recruit members.

This is a well-known unwritten rule among Explorers.

Even the Mist Council turns a blind eye to such situations, as long as there isn’t a blatant challenge.

Kane returned to sit beside Kreya, watching Funa chat with her, then turned to Finaris and said:

"Funa, has your team ever thought of adding more members? You’ve always been three people."

Kreya immediately understood what Kane was hinting at with his seemingly casual question.

Funa replied without a second thought, "Of course, we’ve wanted to add one or two more members. A three-person team is quite inconvenient, especially when exploring dungeons."

"But you know, our team has two little angels who are extremely sensitive to the emotions of wise creatures, so it’s tough to find suitable teammates, hence the delay."

While Explorers mostly form teams of 3 or 5, those who can form a 5-person team usually don’t opt for a 3-person one, unless there’s a situation of reduced members later on.

Generally, at the Silver level and beyond, if a team is lacking in numbers, it’s usually because they’ve lost members and can’t find suitable new ones.

Funa’s team formed during the Copper level, and after experiencing one or two dungeons together, they reached Silver.

Once at Silver, it became significantly difficult to find suitable teammates.

Most had already formed complete teams, while lone individuals were either true lone wolves or unsuitable for team play due to various issues.

The remaining suitable cases were mostly those where teams suffered large-scale casualties, leaving only one or two people.

These people are either hard to find or not suitable.

And so, it dragged on all the way, and even now it’s still a team of three.

Such a situation often causes Funa, as the team leader, some worries.

Seeing that Funa and the others indeed have a strong intention to recruit team members, Kane breathed a sigh of relief.

The reason he asked this was self-evident.

It was precisely to find a suitable team for Finaris.

Kane’s team already reached 5 members, a very good balance, not to mention his teammate slots only support 4 teammates.

This puts Finaris, whom they brought out, in a rather awkward position.

So, knowing that Finaris was completely free, Kane had been pondering this issue, and eventually felt that Funa’s team was very suitable for Finaris.

Two angels, one for close combat, and one for long-range magic. Although both of them use Holy Light Magic, with inherent healing capabilities.

But they are not proficient in this aspect, more specializing in magic close combat and magic damage long-range.

However, the special nature of Holy Light Magic allows them to get by.

If the team were joined by Finaris, a Holy Light Mage specializing in healing and support, the team could be said to be like a tiger with wings.

Furthermore, Holy Light Magic undoubtedly strengthens angels more than ordinary humans.

Finally, Kane expressed his thoughts, having already discussed with Finaris before.

Finaris also believed the teammates Kane found for her would be quite suitable.

"Funa, I’d like my friend to join your team now, see if she’s suitable." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

With that said, Kane pointed to Finaris on the other side and waved to her.

Kane didn’t lower his voice, so everyone in the room knew.

Xi and Rui quickly flew over, Xi even holding Finaris’ hand.

"Do you want to join us? That’s great!" Xi said happily to Finaris, whose hand he was holding.

Xi’s expressions and actions were seen by his brother Rui and Funa, which also sent them a signal.

That was, Finaris’ personality wasn’t an issue; now they just needed to see if her skills were suitable.

Finaris approached them and introduced herself to Funa and Rui: "My name is Finaris, and I have some insights into healing and enhancement Holy Light Magic."

Insights? She’s quite modest.

After that, Finaris waved her hand, and Holy Light Magic performed an enhancement on the three in front of her.

Funa and the others could feel the Holy Light Magic on them.

For Funa, the enhancement effect of this Holy Light Magic was certainly up to standard, but she couldn’t sense any special attributes.

Xi and Rui were different, they could be considered Holy Light entities to some extent.

Clearly able to feel the uniqueness of Finaris’ Holy Light Magic, even experiencing a mysterious significance.

Regardless, the effect brought by this enhancement was very satisfactory to Funa and the others.

"Very glad to have you join us, I’m Funa, the team leader, and I’m somewhat a mechanician."

"I’m close combat, and this is my brother, somewhat a ranged mage. Come on, let’s chat and get to know each other."

"Don’t presume to introduce me, I can introduce myself."

"Who cares about you, Finaris come on over."

Looking at the inexplicable bickering angel siblings in front of her, Finaris still maintained an elegant and kind smile.

Funa shook her head and started chatting with Finaris, Kreya and Lilulu also joined in, easing the atmosphere and helping them get more acquainted.

None of them noticed anything peculiar about Finaris, except Burton, who was watching the whole time.

He secretly waved to Kane.

Kane also walked over and sat beside them.

Burton quietly asked Kane, "Why doesn’t this little Holy Light girl have Origin Skills, she seems to have Silver Power right? Did you somehow liberate her from the dungeon?"

Kane widened his eyes at Burton, he knew Burton could see some suspicions, but didn’t expect him to guess the right answer immediately.

Seeing Kane’s expression, Burton shook his head and said, "Don’t look at me like that, this counts as exploration experience, doesn’t it? It’s not particularly rare. After all, there are only a few possible situations like this, choosing the most likely one is only natural."

Listening to Burton’s words Kane nodded, indeed, Burton’s exploration experiences span four to five hundred years.

Some strange happenings most explorers encounter, he might not have experienced them, but he surely has some understanding or has heard of them.

Time itself counts as a weapon for explorers, and certainly so for those who are immortal.
