"Alright, no need to be so wary. I don't have any ulterior motives towards you. If you want to talk about backbone, you need money. You don't even have money, so what backbone can you talk about?" Chen Luo rolled his eyes at Hestia.
“Emmm…” Although Hestia really wanted to refute Chen Luo, what Chen Luo said made sense.
"So what exactly did you come to see me for?" Hestia sighed and looked at Chen Luo as if resigned to her fate.
"What do you mean, 'Why did I come to see you?' It was clearly your child who invited me, okay? I'm the one who was invited." Chen Luo looked at Hestia with some surprise, as if he didn't understand why Hestia asked that question.
"Um... I'm sorry, did I do something wrong?" Hearing this, Bell looked at Hestia somewhat embarrassed.
"Alright, you might fool a child with your words, but no adult god will believe your nonsense. Isn't using words to manipulate others to achieve your goals based on the foreseeable future exactly what you do?"
“Don’t be so wary of me. I just came to take a look, and I have nowhere else to go anyway. To be honest, I think your child has the potential to become a hero,” Chen Luo said, sizing up Bell.
Honestly, in Chen Luo's eyes, a person's actual strength isn't that important right now. Even a homeless person on the street could become a dazzling S-rank talent user after Chen Luo's enhancements, and if he really put in the effort, an SS-rank talent user wouldn't be out of the question.
Now, Chen Luo observes people from a deeper perspective, such as... the crucial soul.
Just like Freya in the world of "I Want to Meet You in a Dungeon, Balabala"—the main goddess of the [Freya Familia], the "goddess of beauty" with unparalleled beauty.
She possesses an "eye" that allows her to see the essence of souls, and she uses this to recruit people, making her familia one of the strongest familias.
Chen Luo can also achieve this level of skill because his investigative abilities can be described as the sum of all abilities related to "seeing," including illusion breaking, observation, exploration, analysis, and replication.
That's why Chen Luo has a very high opinion of Bell.
"Of course, this child is the one I have the most faith in in the entire Orari!" Even Hestia, who is somewhat lazy and gluttonous, couldn't help but puff out her chest with pride when Bell was mentioned.
"So give this child to me. You should know that if I want to, there's no one I can't raise. If there is, then I'll just have to spend more time on it," Chen Luo said.
"No!" Hestia's reaction was intense.
"I can trade you a god. Give me this god, and I'll help you kill a god, how about that?" Chen Luo asked.
"That's even worse! And you always treat gods this way! You never treat gods as gods!" Hestia was getting a little angry.
Who asked you to help kill the gods?
"After all... neither mortals nor gods can beat me, so what's wrong with me using my own standards of judgment to observe them? If you're not happy, come and fight me! It's not like they dare to come."
Honestly, Chen Luo always felt that the Greek gods never needed to be revered, because they were gods simply because their parents were gods.
On the contrary, most of the demigods have their own heroic deeds... although they may receive help from the gods in the process.
"You gods have experienced too few hardships; your lives have been too smooth," Chen Luo concluded with a sigh.
“Of course, me too,” Chen Luo added.
"Aren't you insulting yourself too?"
"Go ahead and curse!"
“…Sigh, Bell, use the magic stones he gave you to exchange for money, then buy some good food to treat him, and try to spend all that money.” Hestia was at a loss with Chen Luo, so she said to Bell.
"You spent it all? That's a huge sum of money. It seems like all of these are magic stones dropped by level 5 monsters."
"I've spent it all. It'll save me from any unnecessary trouble arising from accepting his gift. Besides, there are two of us and only one of him, so we can eat more when we go out to eat! It's not a bad deal!" Hestia said, puffing out her chest.
I'm so smart!
"Go ahead, go ahead, it'll be a good opportunity for me to try some of this world's specialties." Chen Luo waved his hand.
"Oh, I'm off then." Bell nodded, picked up the magic stones, and rushed out.
When Bell returned, he had a lot more food in his arms. Then Bell encountered an embarrassing situation: his table was not big enough.
"Snap!" Chen Luo snapped his fingers, and a large stone table grew out of the ground.
"Is this a miracle?" Bell asked in surprise after placing the food items one by one on the stone table.
"But aren't gods forbidden from using their divine power in the human realm, or they'd be sent back? Is that what they say, Your Majesty?" Bell looked at Hestia.
Because Hestia only has Bell as a member of her Familia, she shares a lot of information and intelligence with him.
"That's right, this guy is a person, so even if he uses his abilities, it won't cause any problems. Besides, this guy may not have come to the lower realm from the heavens through normal means." After seeing the delicious food she had obtained by exchanging magic stones, Hestia couldn't help but stuff the snacks into her mouth.
"Huh? But isn't this the River God?"
“It sounds strange, but the fact that he’s human is as undeniable as the fact that he’s a god. No god would deny that. That’s just how unique he is. Otherwise, why do you think he doesn’t get along with any of the gods?” Hestia said, her mouth full.
“I don’t get along with any of the gods. Isn’t it because they’re afraid of me? Whether it’s the God-Slaying Whip or the Heavenly Lock…” Chen Luo muttered.
“…That’s part of the reason, but more importantly, it’s because you treat all gods the same. But because you treat everyone the same, you offend those gods who think too highly of themselves.” Hestia was speechless for a moment, but couldn’t refute it.
Heaven knows why a god like Chen Luo, the ultimate civil war god, would appear among the gods.
I haven't seen how strong it is against other enemies, but it's incredibly effective against gods... and the same goes for a group of them.
"No wonder I saw the River God on the 5th floor of the dungeon. These magic stones must have been dropped by the River God after he personally killed the monsters, right?" Bell suddenly realized.
“That’s right.” Chen Luo did not deny it.
"Damn it, why is it that only you can use special abilities?" Hestia, increasingly angry after Chen Luo brought it up, tore at the chicken leg in her hand.
"You can use it too, as long as you're not afraid of being sent back to the Heavenly Realm," Chen Luo said with a smile.
"...Impossible! You just want to trick me into being sent back to the God Realm so you can inherit my Bel, right? I've already seen through your scheme!"
"Don't get so worked up. I just think your child seems quite likable, but I've seen people like this before, or rather, I've seen a lot of them," Chen Luo said.
"Really? I don't believe it."
"Of course it's real, it's just from another world."
Although the protagonist of this world, Bell, does indeed have the potential to become a hero.
But Chen Luo has seen 13 heroes like this who save the world!
Moreover, there are quite a few people with shining, brilliant souls in Chen Luo's bar.
"So you finally admit you can travel to another world!"
"I have never denied it. I just simply didn't want to share it with you."
"Then why are you saying it now?" Hestia asked, somewhat puzzled.
"Because I found 800 million warriors in another world! I plan to bring them to this dungeon so they can grow stronger. I've named this show Dungeon Fighter Online. What do you think?"
"You're cheating, aren't you? Gods who come to Orario can't use their divine power to cheat. They can only use their special skills other than divine power and divine authority to raise their own Familia..." Hestia's words came to an abrupt end.
"Go on, keep going."
"...You're cheating! You're not planning to use any power other than divine strength and authority to cultivate your own kin, are you?" Hestia looked at Chen Luo and then at herself, and suddenly even the chicken leg in her hand didn't taste so good anymore.
I'll say it three times: Chen Luo is cheating!
The gods in the heavens all knew that Chen Luo possessed strange and unusual abilities in addition to his divine powers, but no one paid any attention. After all, gods were a bunch of people who preyed on people with extraordinary talents.
However, after arriving in the human world and being restricted from using divine power and authority, Hestia discovered just how much of a cheater Chen Luo had been in the lower realm.
"if not?"
“The other gods will not agree to you doing this! They will definitely join forces and make a special rule just for you!” Hestia said seriously.
Hestia never hesitated to speculate about the gods with the utmost malice.
"Whatever, they either have to face reality and accept my overpowered abilities, or I'll send you all back to the Celestial Realm and take over Orario myself. You decide what to do." A stick suddenly appeared in Chen Luo's hand, and his confidence at this moment was terrifying.
"!!!" Even before Chen Luo made a move, Hestia was already trembling with fear at the sight of the God-Slaying Whip in Chen Luo's hand.
Hestia only returned to normal after Chen Luo put away the God-Slaying Whip.
"So you can do without power, but you can't be without it." Chen Luo couldn't help but say, seeing Hestia's quick compromise.
Chen Luo didn't come to this world to play house with the gods of this world. Since he has the ability to overturn the table, why should he negotiate properly?
Either you let me cheat, or don't blame me for turning it into single-player mode and kicking you all off the server!
"I...I don't mind. You go and discuss it with Loki and Freya. They're the two largest members of the Orarium!" Hestia, whose entire Familia only had Bell, had no intention of clashing with Chen Luo over this matter.
It's not worth it, family.
Even if the Hestia Scrolls were in dire straits, they couldn't be any worse off. Having only one person as a member of their family was already the lowest possible level for any family.
“Loki and Freya? I’ll go find them.” Chen Luo nodded.
"Oh, by the way, since I treated you to dinner, could you give Bell something nice?" Hestia asked Chen Luo after regaining her composure (out of fear of the God Whip).
"...But I bought this food with my magic stones."
"But Bell ran the legs!" Hestia retorted confidently.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
“…That makes sense, here you go.” Chen Luo casually tossed a doll to Bell.
"What is this? Don't give anything that isn't valuable, or it will be disrespectful to your River God!"
"A substitute doll can absorb misfortune for him when he encounters it, and then reverse his fate, allowing him to escape a certain inevitable death or defeat. But it can only be used once; it's a one-time use item," Chen Luo said.
This is a product of Chen Luo's combination of puppetry and Aponia's Fate Threads ability.
The bad news is that this substitute doll has a limit, but the good news is that in this world, apart from gods, almost no one can reach that limit.
"Alright, I should go now. I'll pack up the rest." Chen Luo packed up the other half of the food that Hestia hadn't had time to touch and took it with him.
Chen Luo planned to let the bar's customers try these local specialties.
"Are we going to find Loki and Freya's Familia?" Hestia asked, her voice tinged with excitement.
Hestia didn't get along well with either Loki or Freya.
However, Hestia's conflict with Loki stemmed from a friendship between friends, one having large breasts and the other small, while her conflict with Freya was simply a matter of a virgin goddess and a deity with a slightly chaotic private life.
“However, that’s not the case.” Chen Luo stretched.
"Ok?"
"I should go home and sleep," Chen Luo explained.
"But it's only 6 p.m. now."
"But it's already 11:30 PM in the other world. I can look for Loki and Freya tomorrow, but if I don't get some sleep tonight, I won't get any at all. Anyone who dares to disturb my peaceful morning dreams, I'll smash their skull in!"
"..." Hestia watched Chen Luo disappear into a vortex.
For some reason, Hestia always felt that Chen Luo was less making threats and more foreseeing her tragic future on a certain morning...
Chapter 1584 Chen Luo: As long as I'm shameless, I'm invincible!
"You son of a bitch! Can't you stop being so outrageous?!"
Chen Luo did a sit-up right on the bed!
This is the 5th time.
"Five phone calls in ten minutes! What is that Xiao Jiu trying to do? Is she trying to cause chaos?!" Chen Luo felt like he was going crazy.
Chen Luo kept the divine authority seal in his backpack, but just like his electronic devices, which could receive information even when placed in a backpack, the divine authority seal could also receive messages from the celestial realm.
For example... a banquet is being held in the Immortal Realm's conference room!
"I knew it! I knew Xiao Jiu wouldn't let me go!"
"I knew it, but I didn't expect her to be so persistent. It's only 6 o'clock, and she's already made 5 phone calls! Don't these immortals sleep?" Chen Luo's voice was full of resentment.
[I already told you, she's very persistent. I told you to mute her messages, and you didn't, so who's to blame?]
"But who knew she could persevere like that?"
So what are you planning to do now?
"Get up, eat, and beat DouDou (Xiao Jiu)!" Chen Luo announced Xiao Jiu's sentence with a blank expression.
Chen Luo knew he would be woken up today, but he did it on purpose.
Only in this way could Chen Luo accumulate his anger to its maximum and then give Yu Yu Xiao Jiu a good beating.
Some people, when they get ruthless, will even ruin their future selves!
However, this is more like an author who is supposed to update 30 words a month, but only updated 27 words before the last day, so he can only update 3 words on the last day!
They even went so far as to say: Please, it's the end of the month for me!
Chen Luo used Xiao Jiu as an alarm clock, but the alarm clock was a bit too frequent, ringing 5 times in 10 minutes.
However, Chen Luo's intention to use Xiao Jiu as an alarm clock and his forgiveness of Xiao Jiu are not directly related.
