Chapter 807
Hestia showed an expression of sudden realization:
"It turned out that I picked up a wild hero to become my family member!"
Hearing these words, Hephaestus' expression changed and she quickly pulled the sofa chair next to her and pushed it behind Hestia.
Then there was a bang.
Hestia collapsed on the sofa and jerked away with a snap.
Before she pulled over, she was still convulsing and said:
"I... picked up an ancient hero on the street..."
Chapter 1101 Be careful I take over
Outside the bedroom on the third floor of Hephaestus' shop.
Hephaestus, who had just carried Hestia in, walked out and looked at Su Jin with complicated eyes.
"...Is she okay?" Su Jin, who was sitting on the sofa in the hall, asked with a subtle expression.
"...It's nothing serious. It's just a simple surprise. Well, it's the first time I know that gods can faint like this."
Hephaestus spread her hands towards Su Jin, then walked to the wine cabinet and took out two wine glasses and a bottle of fruit wine.
"I never thought Hestia would find someone like you on the street."
Ancient heroes.
It generally refers to those strong human beings who were active thousands of years ago, when the gods had not yet descended to the lower world, and relied on their own strength to fight monsters.
Compared to the modern Familia who wholesale in large quantities after the birth of Enhui, the number of heroes in ancient times is pitifully small, and it is even seriously suspected that the number does not exceed a hundred.
But it was this rare number that protected the human race in that era when monsters in dungeons were ravaging the earth.
Therefore, anyone who knows a little bit about ancient knowledge will understand what kind of monsters the heroes were at that time!
It can be said that even if those monsters have no favors, they are not inferior to modern level 5 or above adventurers on their own.
If you are a strong one among ancient heroes, it is not unheard of to rival level 7 or even level 9.
Picking up such a strong man for no reason was like a poor person who suddenly learned that he had won one billion in the lottery ticket he bought, so Hestia fainted in disgrace.
In fact, Hephaestus thought that she would have fainted if it were her.
Although her family is also a well-known family in Orario, is it capable of fighting? Then the benevolent sees benevolence and the wise see wisdom.
If he could earn a level 7 ancient hero for nothing, Hephaestus seriously doubted that his performance would be even worse than Hestia's.
"Can you drink?" Hephaestus placed the wine glass and bottle on the table.
"I know a little bit." Su Jin moved on the sofa and said.
"Have a drink with me." Hephaestus picked up the bottle and shook it.
"good."
After receiving Su Jin's response, Hephaestus poured Su Jin a glass of fruit wine, then picked up his own glass and drank it down in one gulp:
"Honestly, if you weren't already part of Hestia's family, I would have snatched you away."
Hephaestus said with envy on her face:
"Ancient heroes who were able to accept favors, this kind of thing only happened once or twice in history."
Although it is said that thousands of years ago, when the gods did not have a lower world, there were heroes who could retreat to the monsters in the dungeon, but in fact these heroes are still inextricably linked to the gods.
In that era, although the gods could not descend to the lower world, there were fairy spirits who were equivalent to the incarnations of the gods.
Compared with the gods who cannot use their divine power now, fairy spirits can directly mobilize the power of the gods to give human beings protection. Although most of them can only be given to a single person, they can also give that person powerful power.
Therefore, the strongest heroes in ancient times were often cultivated by fairies who selected the best from the best in a cruel environment and then endowed them with divine power.
And once divine power is given, the favor will not be effective. This is a fact verified by the gods.
Being able to obtain favors also possesses the power of ancient heroes.
Then Su Jin's 'origin' was very fishy in the eyes of Hephaestus.
Having been cruelly trained by ancient heroes, but not given any favors, this method can only be used by some gods who have lost the bet, and would be so crazy.
Thinking of this, Hephaestus couldn't help but look at Su Jin who was drinking.
After taking a sip of wine, Su Jin looked up at her and said:
"Just ask whatever you want to ask. Do you still want to get me drunk?"
"I did think about it that way, but I gave up in the end."
Hephaestus sighed, then looked at Su Jin's smiling face and said:
"And even if I forget, will you tell me?"
"I will decide what to say based on the situation." Su Jin responded with a smile.
"Is that so, a follower of secrecy?"
Hephaestus shook her head helplessly, then glanced at Su Jin and said:
"Although it's a bit overreaching, I still want to confirm one thing."
Hephaestus said, giving Su Jin a deep look and said:
"Will the god standing behind you cause trouble for Hestia?"
Su Jin raised his eyebrows and said with a smile in his eyes:
"If this is the case, I can tell you straightforwardly."
"The gods standing behind me include Hades, Hera, Athena, and even..."
Su Jin said with a rather playful expression:
"...even Hestia."
Hephaestus froze.
After a long while, she came back to her senses, took a sip of wine and said:
"When did these guys get together? I don't know..."
Hephaestus was completely relieved when he heard the name of God coming out of Su Jin's mouth.
Good guy, she thought some god was crazy and actually cultivated ancient heroes in this era. After a long time, it turned out that they were 'one of their own'.
Gods also exist in this world, but unlike the gods in Hakoniwa, the gods in this world are more like factions, just like the families established by the gods now.
A faction built for entertainment purposes by gods who have no 'blood relationship' at all.
However, after the formation of the Familia, the old god-based game has naturally been terminated indefinitely.
Compared to forming cliques with fellow gods in the past, the gods now prefer to establish their own families and fight as a unit.
After all, it is more satisfying to be the boss than to be a soldier.
But it was Hera and the others who were kicked out... This was really... Hephaestus could somewhat understand Hera's thoughts.
Their family members have been effectively eliminated, and the game is over. Even if they cultivate heroes, they will be of no use.
So the final result is naturally to give it to a similar god of the same god system.
The most suitable person here is naturally Hestia, who has just started the family game.
So Su Jin said that Hestia was also standing behind him, and Hephaestus could naturally understand.
It’s just that this method is still too messy. Heroes can only be born through life-and-death training. Who knows how many candidates Hera and the others have killed. At least Hephaestus cannot approve of this training method:
"Is their purpose to strengthen the pantheon?"
"Yes." Su Jin looked at Hephaestus subtly, as if to say, 'You actually learned how to answer'.
"What about other than that?"
"No more."
Su Jin said with great certainty.
"They were smart and didn't add anything extra." Hephaestus sighed, took a sip of wine and said:
"Thank you for your honesty. At least this way I don't have to worry about Hestia anymore..."
Before Hephaestus could finish speaking, the door was pushed open with a bang.
Hestia, with red eyes, rushed to the secretary, grabbed his hand and said:
"Su Jin, quickly take off your clothes and come into the room with me!"
Hearing this, Su Jin was stunned.
Next to him, Hephaestus was also dumbfounded and said in confusion:
"Hey Hestia, that's my bedroom! What do you want to do in my bedroom?"
Hestia turned her head suddenly when she heard this, was stunned for a moment, and then showed a surprised face.
"yes!"
"In that case, Hephaestus, come with us!"
Hephaestus: "(⊙o⊙)What?"
The female craftswoman was dumbfounded on the spot.
Chapter 1102 Attributes and Development Ability
"So...you just want to show me this?"
Hephaestus looked at Hestia, who was riding on Su Jin's waist and holding a silver needle in front of her, as if she was dead.
"That's right, isn't this possible?"
Hestia pricked her finger with a silver needle, and then dripped blood onto Su Jinchi's back.
"Let the main gods of other families see the backs of my own families. Should I thank you for your trust?"
Hephaestus glanced at Hestia helplessly and sighed:
"Aren't you afraid that I will see something I shouldn't see?"
"There's nothing you shouldn't see, right?"
Hestia drew sacred words on Su Jin's back with her bloody fingers while making a mark.
"...There's really nothing to see."
Hephaestus stared at Su Jin's back, staring at the skin exposed to the air, and nodded very seriously.
Su Jin, who felt as if his skin was being pricked by needles, twitched the corner of his mouth and forced himself not to pay attention to Hephaestus, but asked Hestia:
"Then what? Why did you drag me in specifically to renew your favor?"
"Su Jin, you don't know, right?"
Hestia said while writing sacred words on Su Jin's back with her own blood:
"The so-called grace is actually a power that extracts the history that humans have experienced and taps into their own potential under the guidance of sacred texts."
"Can you understand this?"
"able."
Sujin sighed. In fact, Sujin knew more than Hestia.
Even as a person who has experienced it personally, he still understands the power of grace, just like adding a new operating system to a computer.
The source of power to tap one's own potential actually comes from the adventurers themselves, and God is only playing a guiding role.
It is precisely because of this that when the monster's power restrains divine power, the adventurer's favor can restrain the monster's power.
Because in its essence, favor taps into the adventurer’s own potential.
"If you can understand, then it will be much easier to explain." Hestia breathed a sigh of relief, and then continued to use the silver needle to prick the recovered fingertip wound, and said:
"Since we are exploring our own potential, we have to talk about the concept of level."
“It’s like there’s no identical leaf in the world.”
"Due to the uniqueness of each person and the potential of each person, there are differences between the same levels."
