Wrong Ground, Spiral Twins

"You already have a clan base and an outstanding clan leader. With reliable financial support, you won't have to recruit people in person. People will come to you to recommend themselves... As I said before, children are well-informed."

“Yeah, I thought so too.

"So in this matter, I am ready to ask my friends for help even if it means risking my reputation."

Hephaestus suddenly had a bad feeling. "Friends? Who are they?"

Hestia counted on her fingers and said, "Mihir, Ajian, Ganesha, Demeter, and..."

Being stared at by Hestia's sparkling eyes, Hephaestus's expression gradually darkened.

Chapter 53: Hill Frois

Although he has concealed his real name and has always called himself the "loser (Firs)", his reliability is unquestionable as he was able to develop his mysterious ability to the extreme nearly a thousand years ago, create the "Philosopher's Stone", and be recognized as a "sage" by the magical powers.

The final sample after his modification was not only simpler and more beautiful in appearance, but the internal transformation array was also simplified while maintaining the conversion rate and conductivity.

The loss rate of magic stones was further reduced, the manufacturing process became simpler, and even the overall weight was further reduced.

If these improvements have greatly increased the competitiveness of the product, then the matching engraving master undoubtedly lays the foundation for the product.

Magic books, invisibility items, long-distance communication items... As a 'sage', Fels's strength is not top-notch, but in terms of making magic items, his talent and skills have been accumulated over nearly a thousand years. Obviously, there are few people in the world who can match him.

And his reliability is not only reflected in his skills. The day after Su Mo got the final sample, the guild expressed its intention to cooperate.

Finally, the sample was finalized, cooperation discussions started, and the framework of the manufacturing plant was put into place. Everything seemed to be on track the moment the gates were opened.

In a hurry, there were suddenly many more things to do. Su Mo, who could no longer divide himself into two, had to reduce the time of exploring the dungeon and spend more time on preparatory work.

Due to lack of experience, he was inevitably a little confused at first, but gradually... Su Mo discovered that his goddess was really popular.

Logically speaking, establishing an industrial chain, even a simplified one, is bound to be a rather cumbersome task.

So beforehand, Su Mo had made sufficient mental preparations, but the result was like a punch hitting cotton, the feeling of being too smooth even made him feel a little unreal.

The ordering of raw materials was introduced and brokered by the Hephaestus family, and several long-term orders were signed with almost no effort.

With the introduction of the Mih clan, a group of required laborers were easily negotiated.

The ordering of various processing equipment was smooth and trouble-free with the guild's endorsement. Finally, there were stores and sales channels. The Demeter Family, one of the most outstanding business families in Orario and even in the entire underworld, helped a lot.

——When the time comes, heaven and earth will exert their strength, and castrated heroes will not be free——

Overtly and covertly, under the manifestation of God's will, it seemed as if the whole world was helping him, making Su Mo truly experience the former's feelings.

"Ms. Hill, thank you very much for this time."

After walking out of the secluded bookstore, Su Mo immediately thanked the gray-haired girl beside him.

As for the factory, Welf couldn't always be in charge, and the Hestia family urgently needed a suitable factory manager.

This person must be capable, skillful, and trustworthy. For this reason, Su Mo searched for several days but couldn't find a suitable candidate. Unexpectedly, a casual remark in the morning solved the problem.

"Don't be so polite, it's just a coincidence."

Hill waved his hands repeatedly, "Also, although Grandpa Aaron looks disgusted, he is actually a very good person. Not only is he warm-hearted, he is also always busy, and he is often more strict with his juniors."

There are many retired people in Orario, and the owner of this bookstore is one of them.

But he did not retire from the profession of "Adventurer". A few years ago, he was a master craftsman who owned his own magic stone workshop and served as the vice president of the Craftsmen's Association.

It's not surprising that such a person would dislike a manufacturing plant that hasn't even been established.

happen--

Although the girl was modest, Su Mo was smart and could see that if it weren't for the girl's request, this old man, who was as capable as he was temperamental, would never have agreed to come out and help.

"In Orario, adventurers of all kinds are easy to find, but people like this old man are hard to find. I should thank you for doing me a big favor."

Xi'er Frois, as an anime fan, Su Mo doesn't know much about this girl.

The first impression he had of her was just that she was pretty and friendly, but as the number of contacts increased, Su Mo gradually became aware of the girl's powerful insight and extraordinary qualities.

The rejection and disgust of others seemed to have nothing to do with the girl.

In fact, Su Mo had similar feelings towards Hestia. However, unlike the pure Hestia, the girl who naturally made people feel close to her was more like someone who had the magic power to see into people's hearts and was always able to get along harmoniously with others in an appropriate way.

To put it more vividly, the former is a real naive girl, while the latter has the potential to be a female Aquaman.

Of course, it is unfair to compare gods with humans. After all, no matter how innocent a person is, he cannot live as purely as a god.

"If you really want to thank me, please come to our tavern more often."

After thinking for a while, Hill smiled maliciously and said, "Although you often come to Liu to train, you don't patronize our tavern very often. For this, Mia's mother complained a lot~!"

"I'll visit from time to time."

Su Mo didn't make any excuses like coming home late every day, and agreed frankly.

"How about tonight? Does Miss Hill have any dinner recommendations?"

"one person?"

"Please do me the honor, Miss Hill."

"Just the two of us?"

Su Mo thought for a moment and responded quickly: "If Miss Hill doesn't mind, I will come with the Lord God."

"It seems that you really ignored Liu."

As if he had discovered something interesting, Hill smiled and said, "Compared to me, she should be the one you should thank the most. If you plan to host a banquet for me in the tavern but not for Liu, how do you think others will see it?"

Su Mo was stunned.

Did he forget to thank Liu?

Obviously not.

But why didn't I react immediately...

"…I was negligent."

Even though simply hosting a banquet to express gratitude could not repay Liu's kindness, it was undoubtedly wrong to ignore her for a while.

"Well, Miss Hill, can I invite one more person?"

"Only one! And in that case, I will definitely order the most expensive one."

The corners of the girl's mouth curled up slightly, and her penetrating eyes seemed to be able to see directly into other people's hearts.

Unconscious behavior is the best reflection of a person's inner thoughts.

If you inadvertently ignore someone, that person is either too insignificant or too important. Only when that person is so important that you ignore the common sense that she is also "someone else" will you subconsciously exclude her.

Even with her deliberate guidance, he didn't even think of Liu at the first moment. Was this really just an oversight?

Chapter 54 Knocking on the door...

Minor setbacks are inevitable, but for half a month, although the time spent in the dungeon every day was inevitably reduced, it never stopped. This situation is actually enough to show how smoothly the preparatory work went.

The guild gave up a lot of profits, but also got some discounts on the purchase of magic stones and was approved for a loan.

Finally, we received the same promotion as the 'Newbie Equipment' and successfully became the only 'official' designated partner. No matter how you look at it, it can't be said to be a loss.

At the factory, with the arrival of the first batch of personnel, the first product of each style had passed inspection two days ago and entered the formal production stage.

Finally, there are stores that put supporting products such as cutlery, forks, bowls and plates neatly on the shelves. The store that originally looked empty suddenly looks much more lively.

“It feels like we can open it right away!”

Hestia, the store manager and poster girl, looked around her territory and smiled with satisfaction.

"Including today, there are still four days."

"If I had known this earlier, I would have set the opening time earlier."

"In that case, there may not be enough inventory."

If you want to eat the first bite of fat meat completely, you must seize the golden vacuum period. To this end, sufficient inventory is necessary.

"Yeah, let's wait a few more days."

"In the next few days, the publicity work can be started. But that's for later. Now, we should have lunch."

"Yes, it's already noon."

Hestia said this while touching her abdomen.

Being able to determine the time without looking at the sky and just feeling how hungry you are is probably a talent that only gods possess.

After locking the door, the man and the god started to head towards the tavern.

Crossing the central square, from afar, Su Mo and Hestia saw the fluttering clown flag and the many figures gathered under the clown flag.

This was not an unexpected event. Compared to their petty conflicts, the fact that Loki's family had recovered in less than half a month and regrouped, and once again launched an expedition to the 59th floor, was the current hot topic in Orario.

……——……

A new day starts with a beating.

"Is your main attribute almost reaching 'S'?"

After the training, Liu put away his wooden sword and asked after a moment of hesitation.

She could feel that the other party's growth rate had slowed down to a low point again in recent days.

But this is obviously not the 'bottleneck period' he had encountered before. He has excellent physical fitness in all aspects, but he is probably approaching the limit of Lv.1 and is about to reach the end point where it will be difficult to make any leap forward except by 'upgrading'.

"It's still a little worse."

Even if you are treated as the chosen one, it is difficult to have everything go as you wish.

Even though he never stopped exploring the dungeon every day, the growth of his ability points had hit rock bottom a week ago.

When time is tight, the total growth of all attributes in a day is less than double digits. If he didn't have the confidence in his heart, he felt that he might not be able to be patient and stay on the twelfth floor.

Yes, half a month has passed, and Su Mo is still on the twelfth floor and has not chosen to move to the thirteenth floor.

As your strength increases, the twelfth floor with many monsters is undoubtedly the best place to obtain magic stones and money.

Acquire as many magic stones as possible and earn money. This has been Su Mo’s primary task in the dungeon for the past half month.

As the preparations were underway, there were too many places that needed money. If he hadn't borrowed money from the guild, he would have probably sold most of the magic stones he earned every day to exchange for money.

This is also one of the reasons why the growth rate of ability value will fall to the bottom, in addition to the "time reduction".

Instead of challenging their own limits, they explore mainly to obtain magic stones and money, which eventually leads to the growth rate hitting new lows.
