Although Hyacine could make potions, the Focalors Familia didn't intend to beco a comrcial Familia.

Therefore, aside from their own use, the surplus potions Hyacine made were entrusted to the [Azure Pharmacy] for sale at cost price.

The most popular among them was the [Healing Spray] Hyacine had concocted herself.

It was an extrely convenient external dicine. Just a light spray on the wound, and the fine mist would stop bleeding within seconds and heal the wound rapidly within minutes, leaving not even a scar.

This effect was already comparable to expensive high-grade elixirs, and its targeted efficiency in treating wounds was no worse than so basic healing magic.

Most importantly, a small bottle of [Healing Spray] could be used over a dozen tis, offering incredible value for money.

Once this miraculous potion was launched, it was warmly welcod by the vast number of low and mid-level adventurers. It directly improved the business of the previously deserted [Azure Pharmacy] several tis over and greatly supplented the Focalors Familia's finances.

At least this newborn Familia wasn't destitute.

After all, the Familia had a "prodigal son" like Aiden.

Every ti he went into the Dungeon, he would scrap several high-quality weapons due to the side effects of the enchantnt magic [Everlasting Flas].

Plus, since all four of them used magic, the consumption of mind recovery potions was also a huge expense.

What was more fatal was that Aiden needed to keep the vast majority of Magic Stones to feed his [Intertwined Fate] system.

This ant their main source of inco relied solely on selling monster drop materials.

But ordinary drops were limited in quantity and value.

If not for Aiden's skill spawning these other-world monsters with higher drop rates and more valuable loot, the Focalors Familia would have been squatting on West Main Street in poverty long ago.

The profession of adventurer sounded profitable, but spending money in it was like pouring water down the drain.

At this mont, learning that this "Shimring Nectar" could allow Hyacine to research new, potentially more powerful potions, the eyes of Aiden, Tifa, and Robin all lit up.

New potent potions ant stronger sustainability, safer adventures, and... more money.

"Alright!"

Aiden slapped his thigh and stood up, full of motivation. "In that case, our next goal is to find every single Whopperflower on the 13th Floor."

—————

While the Focalors Familia was joyfully hunting for Whopperflower trails on the 13th Floor, in front of the Domain Instance entrance on the 12th Floor, the mbers of the Loki Familia had just finished their second raid.

As the last Electro Cicin Mage dissolved into black smoke, the familiar teleportation light sent the ten-person Loki Familia squad back to the entrance.

Just after they completed the second raid, the blue-purple vortex on the rock wall began to destabilize. The light flickered uncertainly, and finally, like smoke blown away by the wind, it dissipated completely.

Three clears, and the instance vanished.

Where the next entrance would appear was completely unknown.

As the light faded, six items emitting a ghostly glow appeared before Finn and the others.

Four glowed with a restrained blue light, while the other two were wreathed in a noble purple halo.

However, looking at this loot, the Loki Familia mbers didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Two raids, six Artifacts—two of which were high-quality 4-stars.

The harvest couldn't be called anything but bountiful.

But the item they anticipated most, the highest-value "Adventurer's Experience Book," was nowhere to be seen.

There wasn't even a 5-star Artifact.

"It must be because we sent too many people, and our levels were too high."

Finn bit his thumb habitually, light flickering in his azure eyes.

To ensure nothing went wrong, he had dispatched a squad composed of four Lv. 3s and six Lv. 2s.

After all, according to Lefiya's description and the intelligence provided by Aiden, the monsters in the instance were nurous, and the two Lv. 3 monsters were particularly tricky.

Fewer hands or lower levels might have resulted in casualties, which the Loki Familia absolutely did not want to see.

Now it seed this overly cautious strategy had affected the final reward of the instance.

"But this is enough." Finn quickly adjusted his mindset.

They had thoroughly verified the authenticity of the Domain Instance, accumulated complete raid experience, and collected enough intelligence.

The next ti they encountered a similar instance, he could precisely dispatch the most suitable team to maximize gains.

"Alright, let's look at this loot first."

Finn waved his hand.

The four 3-star Artifacts emitting blue light were [Heart of Comradeship], [Feather of Hocoming], [Sundial of the Sojourner], and [Goblet of the Sojourner]—exactly four pieces of the [Resolution of Sojourner] set.

When Finn equipped the four Artifacts one by one, information instantly flooded his mind.

[Resolution of Sojourner Set (2-Piece) Effect: Increases Strength and Magic basic ability stats.]

[Resolution of Sojourner Set (4-Piece) Effect: Unlocks new Developnt Ability—[Critical].]

Finn closed his eyes, carefully experiencing this new ability.

His perception seed infinitely amplified. He gained a sharper intuition for insight into his surroundings and potential flaws in his enemies.

This wasn't just an increase in the probability of a critical hit; it was a sublimation on a tactical level, allowing him to discover and strike enemy weaknesses with higher efficiency.

"A very useful Developnt Ability." Finn nodded with satisfaction.

On the other side, Riveria equipped the two 4-star Artifacts—[Survivor of Catastrophe] and [Thunder Summoner's Crown].

[Thundering Fury Set (2-Piece) Effect: Increases Electro Magic damage.]

Receiving the feedback from the Artifacts, a look sowhere between laughter and tears appeared on Riveria's elegant and dignified face.

Electro magic? She didn't know any.

However, she soon discovered that even if the two-piece effect was useless to her, the basic stat bonuses provided by the Artifacts themselves tangibly increased her [Endurance] and [Magic] attributes.

And these were just un-upgraded 4-star Artifacts, yet they already had an effect on a top-tier adventurer of her level.

It was hard to imagine what kind of massive impact a full set of max-level 5-star Artifacts would bring to her, and indeed, to the entire power structure of Orario.

Finally, everyone's gaze fell on the green-covered [Adventurer's Experience Book] brought back by Lefiya.

Finn looked at Lefiya and said gently, "Lefiya, you obtained this book by teaming up with the Focalors Familia. It is your personal loot and does not need to be turned over to the Familia. Its ownership is for you to decide."
