In order to become a Heroic Spirit, I had no choice but to cause trouble in history.

“Lilliana is still building its outpost,” Doris replied quite naturally.

Lemoni looked at Ruslan and sensed something was wrong.

Ou Shen leaned close to Lemoni's ear and whispered, "Be careful, this bastard is a completely different person in front of us and in front of my mom and the others. Don't be surprised."

Lemoni felt that his face was twitching more and more frequently ever since he met Ocean.

"Chief!" At this moment, a tribesman, covered in sweat, ran over and pushed past Oshin and Lemoni.

"What happened? Don't panic." Doris changed her demeanor instantly, speaking seriously to the tribesman.

"Kora's water broke!" the tribesman said anxiously, his hands on his lap.

Everyone present, except for Lemoni, felt their hearts tighten.

"Take me there." With those few words, Doris followed the tribesman.

"Who is Cora?" Lemoni asked.

“My mother’s younger sister, my aunt,” Ou Shen replied, without a trace of a smile on his face.

"Don't worry, Oshen, the midwives in our tribe are incredibly skilled." Jimia patted Oshen on the shoulder, signaling him to relax.

Ou Shen nodded: "I'm going to the beach. You guys... wait for me here."

He heard some kind of sound.

The group exchanged glances.

Luslan offered, "Lemoni, let me show you around our tribe first."

Ou Shen, on the other hand, walked alone towards the sea.

Upon arriving at the beach, I unsurprisingly saw a young man facing the sea.

"Are you calling me?" Ou Shen asked cautiously and warily, looking at the figure's back.

"Hmm." The man turned his head slightly. "How was your trip to Atlantis, my cousin?"

“Why did you call me out? My aunt is giving birth.” Ou Shen sighed and walked to the man’s side.

“I’d like to ask… what your opinion is on that continent.” Hermes said with a slight smile.

“What opinions could I possibly have? I haven’t seen much of it.” Oshin scratched his ear.

“Hmm… let me put it another way.” Hermes looked at Ocean, who seemed rather indifferent. “Which do you think is more suitable for you to live on, Atlantis or Doris Island?”

------------

Chapter 543 The decision of where to go is up to you.

"What do you mean by that?" Ou Shen looked at the handsome young man beside him, who was much shorter than him but exuded a sense of oppression at all times.

“It means exactly what it says.” Hermes opened his eyes. This time, he didn’t use his divine power, so his eyes didn’t radiate any divine light. “For someone as powerful as you, do you think a small place like Doris Island is more suitable for you, or Atlantis?”

He narrowed his eyes again and looked at the sea: "You have a lot of wisdom and thought, but you usually like to pretend to be a little stupid, so you can come up with this. After all... it's a very simple answer, isn't it?"

Ou Shen's smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression.

He looked at Hermes for a while, then looked back at the sea.

He sighed deeply, "So what? I just want to... stay by my mother's side and protect her."

Hermes smiled and shook his head: "Oshin, my cousin, I know you are a filial son, although your filial piety is only towards your mother."

"Otherwise what? Am I supposed to be filial to Poseidon, who hurt my mother who raised me countless times?" Oshin sneered.

“Let’s get back to the topic, Ocean.” Hermes sighed softly. “I have a reason for asking you this question, brother.”

Oshin focused his gaze on Hermes, and the two brothers' eyes met.

“My name is Hermes, the god of commerce, a descendant of Zeus, the great god, which means… your cousin.” Hermes’s gentle and casual expression vanished without a trace, leaving only seriousness.

“Unit [Demigod Oceanus], my cousin, son of the sea god, do you know how important you are to the great god?”

Ou Shen swallowed hard, wanting to nod, but then felt something was off.

"Your importance is far greater than you realize, but it is not in terms of interpersonal relationships," Hermes said solemnly. "This kind of importance will bring you misfortune."

“…Why?” Ocean looked at Hermes, guessing what was going on.

"Let me tell you about it." Hermes sat cross-legged in the air, resting his chin on his hand.

"Several years ago, the gods held a meeting at the great altar in Dodona."

"The purpose of the meeting was to allow the gods and earthly creatures to conduct experiments on the birth of life, which is... you probably understand."

“…Go on.” Ou Shen nodded, stroking his chin.

"You are the only successful case, and that's the result of this experiment so far."

Ou Shen's pupils contracted.

"So you probably know where this attention and importance come from."

“…What should I do?” Ocean looked at Hermes, looking into his eyes. “And how can I believe that what you’re saying is true?”

“You already believe it, otherwise you wouldn’t have asked the first question first.” Hermes smiled.

Ou Shen stood with his arms crossed, remaining silent.

"Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I'm just doing... what I want to do. You're welcome to go to your father, or even report me to the Divine Court as an informant. In any case, my ultimate fate will be nothing more than having my memories wiped clean by the unified authority." Hermes smiled indifferently. "As for what you should do..."

“Go to Atlantis?” Ocean frowned. “But why…”

“I’ve said it before, you’re a filial son.” Hermes pressed his knuckles against his temples, tilting his head slightly. “I’m not worried about your safety, that’s not important to me. I’m worried about... something else, something you care about most.”

“You are a precious experiment, but not a fully developed one. I was initially sent to observe you simply to record the process of your growth.” Hermes’ eyes narrowed slightly. “But once you are fully developed…”

Ou Shen felt his heart skip a beat.

"In short, nothing around you is safe. What you do is up to you. I'm just an informant." Hermes waved his hand. "That's all I have to say. I'm leaving."

Hermes smiled and waved, his eyes shining with divine light.

“Wait, I have another question,” Ocean called out to Hermes.

“Hmm? You ask.” Hermes looked down at Ocean.

“You…you’re a god, why are you helping me?” Oshin pursed his lips, looking up at the somewhat illusory humanoid Hermes. “Shouldn’t you be on the side of the great god?”

"As for this, I've already said it before," Hermes said, waving his finger. "It's just because I wanted to."

After saying this, Hermes' figure vanished into thin air, leaving only a few fragments of divine power that disappeared before Ocean's eyes.

Hermes returned to the clouds, lifted the blockade on information, and looked down at Ocean, who was still standing on the beach, lost in thought.

“I just feel that the relationship between humans and gods shouldn’t be like this…” He lowered his eyes, “Are you… truly the wedge I’ve been searching for, [Demigod Oceanos]…?”

......

Ou Shen gritted his teeth, his mind heavy with worry.

The sky was already glowing red when Ou Shen realized that a long time had passed.

“…Auntie!” Oshen remembered that something important was happening in the tribe and quickly ran back to the tribe.

A shed for women to give birth...

Pushing aside the bushes, Ou Shen immediately saw his mother holding a baby, a smile on her face.

"Mom, how is my aunt?" Oshen ran up to Doris and asked anxiously.

Doris rolled her eyes at Oshin: "Where have you been all this time? Your aunt and her daughter are safe and sound."

"That's good." Oshin breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the baby in Doris's arms. "It's a girl."

"Hold this for me, I'm going to check on your aunt." Doris handed the sleeping baby to Ocean and turned to walk into the shed.

Ou Shen looked at his cousin, whose face was a bit wrinkled and not cute. He gently touched his little cousin's forehead with his index finger.

The baby suddenly started crying loudly.

"Oh! Oh!" Ou Shen was startled. "What, what should we do? Mom, Mom, come out for a second!"

Doris burst out with a "whoosh," snatched the baby from Ocean's arms, and glared fiercely at Ocean.

"What good are you? You can't even take care of a child. I just managed to get him to sleep!"

After saying that, Doris turned and went back into the shed, leaving Ocean standing at the door looking completely bewildered.

Chapter 544 Ou Shen's Torture

Oshin sat below the patriarch's seat with a wronged expression.

Doris sat solemnly on the chieftain's throne, and everyone in the tribe gathered below her.

Lemoni was somewhat uneasy; this serious occasion made him feel even more uncomfortable than in the pub.

"Today, two things have happened in our Doris tribe that are worth celebrating," Doris said, looking at her tribe and her people.

Everyone remained silent; Doris's prestige was immense.

"My sister, Cora, the captain of the fishing team, gave birth to a baby girl this afternoon." Doris smiled as she took the baby girl from Cora, who was lying behind her, and held her high in her arms.

"Our tribe has gained another member!" Her voice was filled with joy and uncontrollable excitement.

"Ohhhhhhh!!!!" All the tribesmen, including Oceanuslan and Jimia, cheered loudly.

The birth of a child is always the most important and joyous occasion in a tribe.

Lemoni was startled, and the muscles in his face twitched unnaturally.

The baby was startled by the cheers and started crying loudly.

Doris returned the baby to Cora, her hands on her knees, a smile on her face.

“Her name is Doreen. This name was given to her by her cousin, who is also my son.” Doris looked at Ocean and nodded slightly.

Ou Shen smiled somewhat embarrassedly.

"As for the other news..." Doris looked at the open space, "my son and Liliana's son went to Atlantis to cure Jimia's poison, and now they have returned safely! They even brought us a guest!"
