Their commission was suspicious.

Although the gods descended from the heavens to the mortal realm to bestow divine favors upon them, helping them to increase their power and become stronger, and then launch a counterattack against the dungeon, the gods are a group of people with a cold and indifferent nature.

They are gods by nature, and there are few good people among the gods because they don't even have the concept of being good. They just take what they want, that's all.

Just as Loki said, she and Freya together drove Zeus and Hera's kin out of Orario.

In their normal state, the Zeus and Hera Familias could not possibly be driven away by them. Currently, the strongest member of Orario is probably Ota, a member of Freya's Familia, a Level 7 powerhouse.

However, two members of Zeus's Familia were Level 8, while Hera's Familia even had a Level 9 member.

If it weren't for the fact that Zeus's Familia, after defeating Behemoth, the "King of the Land," and Leviathan, the "King of the Sea," was completely wiped out and rendered powerless, they wouldn't have been driven away.

The Hera and Zeus Familias were actually well-regarded back then, but they were driven out by Freya and Loki because of their weakened strength. No matter how many hidden reasons there were, that's the fact.

This is the nature of these gods; this is the law of the jungle among their clans, utterly irrational.

If you have to fight for bosses in a game, what about a real-life management game?

Therefore, Chen Luo's words were not just empty talk; he was serious. If these gods disagreed with Chen Luo leading eight million warriors to venture into the underground city, Chen Luo would be responsible for throwing them all back into the divine realm.

Chen Luo didn't come to this world to play house with them. Chen Luo only wanted his puppet to kill the monsters in the dungeon, or be killed by the dungeon.

Chen Luo's dolls don't need supplies, don't need to leave the dungeon, and can take care of all their needs in the doll world. Some dolls might never even visit the city of Orario in their entire lives.

Therefore, apart from stealing monsters, Chen Luo's puppets cannot interfere with the affairs of these adventurers and their families. If they disagree with even these matters, then the gods can only obediently return to the Heavenly Realm, be properly confined, and reflect on their actions for a period of time.

In short, since none of us are good people, let's not try to solve problems in a "good person" way; might makes right.

There are indeed good people among the gods, but they are few and far between.

"Perhaps this is what they call a war of gods?" Chen Luo sighed.

"But Loki, don't worry. If you leave, I will take good care of your clans, especially the elites in your clans. To be honest, you are not as good as me in terms of nurturing. I can give him otherworldly abilities to make him stronger, but you can't."

"With my charm and mind control abilities, they will gradually forget you before long. In less than three months, no one in the world will remember Loki, Freya, or the gods..."

"Oh, no, I'll leave some gods behind, like the god of forging and the god of medicine, since adventurers do need supplies. But there's no room for negotiation with certain exploration-oriented gods." As he said this, Chen Luo was intently staring at Loki.

The Loki Familia and Freya Familia are indeed the most powerful Familias, and powerful Familias generally mean that they are the kind of Familias that go deep into the dungeons for exploration, and probably don't have any other areas to show for themselves besides combat power.

After all, we are all adventurers. If we have a choice, why not choose a profession that allows us to take risks, instead of a medical profession?

"...I think you're targeting me." Loki looked at Chen Luo with some annoyance.

Loki truly believed that with Chen Luo's abilities, he could indeed make his satisfied members forget him in a very short time and then follow in Chen Luo's footsteps. This also meant that his lovely little Ais would be taken by a pig from the heavens.

"This is outrageous!" Loki slammed his hand on the table.

However, even though Loki was so emotional, the members of his retinue continued to celebrate their great victory without paying any attention to Loki.

"so……"

“We’re brothers, your business is my business. Why do you need to ask for my opinion? Just assume I agree, right? Let’s team up and take down Freya! That girl definitely won’t agree!” Loki said.

"..." Seele's face stiffened as she put the plate away and placed the next meal in front of Loki.

Loki, you little bitch!

Loki didn't pay any attention to Seele's arrival, because he had just tried rubbing his face against Ais's chest, and Ais hadn't reacted at all. This was enough to prove that the entire bar was under Chen Luo's control.

So just treat everyone around you as NPCs.

Freya is quite capable; at least when Freya uses Seele as an alternate account, even the gods can't tell.

“I know you’re in a hurry, but don’t rush. Since Freya and Loki, the two strongest Familias, already know about this, let’s make an exception and move the Divine Assembly to noon tomorrow, or move the ball tomorrow night to noon.”

"Can you even call that a dance party if it's held at noon?" Loki retorted.

"And when did you remind Freya of this message?"

"Do I need to notify Freya whether I've arrived in the dungeon? She can sense it herself. Back in the Celestial Realm, Freya was always several kilometers away from me. If anyone dared to get within 10 meters of me, Freya's eyes would be blinded. Do you believe that?" Chen Luo glanced at Seele as he said this.

Chen Luo really didn't know what his soul looked like in Freya's eyes, nor did he know how the world's consciousness had simulated the stimulating effect of his soul on Freya.

The only thing Chen Luo knew was that a soul capable of bearing an Ex-level talent was definitely special enough.

However, Freya's eyesight was slightly affected after she arrived in the lower realm, so she can now see without being blinded by the light when she is a certain distance away from Chen Luo.

As long as you don't look directly at Chen Luo, it's fine.

As it turns out, sometimes seeing too much isn't a good thing.

[If Freya were in a tabletop role-playing game, she'd be a total team wipe engine. Those with high inspiration levels are all doomed!]

"Indeed, those with high inspiration should...who are you specifically referring to?"

Chen Luo even had a flash of inspiration this morning.

"Chen Luo, what is Freya's attitude towards this matter?" Loki asked curiously.

As one of Orario's two strongest familias, Freya's attitude is actually crucial... in the past it would definitely have been crucial.

"She said the same thing as you, slamming her hand on the table and telling me to kill that little bitch Loki!"

"What?! That little bitch Freya actually said that about me!" Loki slammed his fist on the table again.

"I didn't do it, I didn't do it, don't talk nonsense!" Seele, who came to deliver the food again, said she was wronged.

If Chen Luo were even a decent human being, he wouldn't be so inhuman.

Before she could even say anything, a huge accusation was dumped on her head, and she couldn't even defend herself... because Freya really thought that way.

With Chen Luo's help, eliminating one competitor first wouldn't be bad.

In fact, Freya had no other choice but to do this.

Freya, as the goddess of beauty, was not good at fighting, and she didn't even dare to look Chen Luo in the eye for fear of hurting her eyes. Although Freya was very comfortable in the lower realm, there were still many gods stronger than Freya in the divine realm.

Having spent so many years in the lower realm, Freya was unwilling to return to the desolate upper realm alone.

"But then again, Chen Luo, do you really have 800 million warriors?" Loki couldn't help but ask.

“Not now, but it will definitely exceed 800 million in the future,” Chen Luo said.

“Eight million people, more than the entire permanent population of the labyrinth city of Orario... Although it might be possible to fit all the people in the dungeon, or even more, can you manage it all by yourself?”

"We can't manage it all," Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

"Besides the enormous economic pressure brought by a population of 800 million, are you really capable of coordinating logistical and food security?"

"No." Chen Luo was quite frank under Loki's persistent questioning.

"Then how dare you bring 800 million warriors with you?" Loki pressed aggressively, as if he had regained some of the initiative.

“Although I don’t know how, once I take over your clan, there will definitely be someone in the clan who does. So I’m not worried,” Chen Luo said.

"...Let's continue discussing these warriors," Loki said, choosing to change the subject.

Chen Luo is truly a conversation killer; he can silence Loki, the god of trickery and lies, with just one sentence.

However, this is precisely based on Chen Luo's formidable martial prowess.

“Then go on, ask me any questions you have,” Chen Luo said.

“Do you know that the entire population of Orario is less than 800 million?” Loki said.

“Of course I know, but these 8 million warriors aren’t just staying in this world. In fact, they’ll be distributed across other worlds to level up. What I’m interested in is the leveling system in this world. The permanent number will probably be around 100,000,” Chen Luo said.

In Chen Luo's vision, apart from the puppets who were particularly interested in dungeon exploration, most of the puppets would go to other dungeons for training after being granted divine favor in this world.

Putting everything else aside, just the countless antimatter legions in the Starry Sky Railway world are a cake that would take many years to devour.

In any case, as long as you have enough experience points and enough great achievements, the puppet can be upgraded through divine grace.

After Chen Luo accepted the commission to become the leader of the clan, he was able to bestow favors upon the dolls through the group network... but it would cost money.

Because Chen Luo doesn't need to refresh their status one by one, but similarly, they need to expend soul energy to update their status in real time.

This is equivalent exchange.

Chen Luo doesn't need to waste 100 million drops of blood, but he still needs to contribute experience.

And the wool naturally comes from the sheep; the experience needs to be earned by the puppets themselves.

After the divine grace is made compatible with the collective network, it means that no matter which world the puppets are in, as long as they accumulate enough experience points and achievements, they will be able to successfully break through levels.

Therefore, Chen Luo felt that the number of puppets permanently residing in this world was appropriate based on the conditions for fulfilling the role of the Familia Master... 10 people.

However, the fact that the gods of this world can descend to the mortal realm to impart knowledge to humankind is actually quite rare among countless worlds.

It would be a real shame not to learn more about this.

For example, Hephaestus's forging skills.

This world has abundant resources and a wide variety of unique skills, so why not learn them?

"So, although you say there are a lot of people, the actual number of permanent residents isn't ridiculously high, right?" Loki gradually understood, and Freya, who was listening beside him, also gradually understood.

"Yes."

"So what are the backgrounds of these warriors? Did you pick them up in another world?"

“How could I possibly take in so many people at once? Actually, they come from a world on the verge of destruction; their civilization is doomed to perish, so I need to find a way out for them. To be honest, I don't want to get involved, but unfortunately, I'm the only one who can help them.” Chen Luo sighed.

"And since we're going to get involved, we have to see this through to the end. How can we not let them acquire the power to protect themselves?"

"Wait, so you mean you're not actually that interested in managing them?" Loki suddenly perked up.

“That’s right. After all, I have a lot of things to do. When will you be able to see me every day in the Heavenly Realm? I’m so busy every day that I can barely stand. If it weren’t for settling them down, I wouldn’t bother competing with you for this underground city.” Chen Luo sighed.

"So, as long as they can truly live and truly become stronger, you don't care whether you're leading them or someone else is teaching them to grow, right?" Loki's spirits lifted again.

"Yes, you don't know, I'm still thinking about whether to take your clansmen and raise them, or let them develop freely."

"..."

Loki had initially intended to say something like, "We'll take care of these warriors for you, and you'll give us something in return," but he backed down after hearing that.

Truth lies only within the range of cannons.

"How about we cooperate?"

"Cooperation?" Chen Luo was somewhat puzzled.

“Since you’re really not interested in training your own clan, then leave it to us. All you care about is whether they get stronger and survive. What difference does it make whose clan they’re in? Just distribute these warriors among the various clans, wouldn’t that be better? Since they seem to have immortality and are quite special, I believe the gods wouldn’t mind accepting some outsiders,” Loki said honestly.

After all, the reason why gods descend to the mortal realm is because they are too bored in the heavenly realm.

I've been playing in the Nether for 1000 years now, and it seems like there are new things to do!

"This...isn't this inappropriate?" Chen Luo said, somewhat embarrassed.

"What's wrong with that? I genuinely want to help you solve your problems," Loki said. As he spoke, Loki glanced at the "108 Anti-Fraud Methods" next to Chen Luo, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the other party wasn't shaking.

However, this time Loki genuinely wanted to help Chen Luo solve his problems.

"But since I made the suggestion, I have to choose your warriors first. We absolutely can't let Freya choose first, otherwise she'll snatch all the good ones!" Loki gritted his teeth as he said this.

In the human world, Freya's ability to see through the essence of souls is simply too tempting!

[Ding! You have a new request!]

“Okay,” Chen Luo said after glancing at Xi’er, whose face was somewhat dark.

The only thing Loki can take advantage of now is Freya's inability to reveal her identity.

[Sigh, Loki's such a loser. If I just do as I say, I'm not worried about him falling into the trap. After all, this is an open strategy.]

Chen Luo's summoning of 800 million warriors is unstoppable. The smart thing to do is figure out how to turn these 800 million warriors into his own people!

[Ding! Mission complete]

When Chen Luo agreed to the request, the request was already completed, because Chen Luo would not violate the rules. After all, with 800 million warriors, how many could you possibly take down? Currently, there are nearly a million puppets in the puppet world with the ability to materialize their souls, and that's only because Chen Luo sometimes forgets to draw his own blood.

In fact, Chen Luo's initial idea was to have the world's familiars accept the dolls, which is why he came to this tavern to meet Loki and Freya in advance.

Otherwise, wouldn't it be more convenient for Chen Luo to kick down the door at the ball tomorrow night and take down all the gods at once?

Why should we give them time in advance?

Is it because Loki has small breasts, or because Freya is seductive?

Chapter 1598 Want to attract the warriors' attention? Debut as an idol! Gods!

As Chen Luo mentioned earlier, he has a strong curiosity about the skills of this world. Although the puppets can learn certain things through the knowledge that Chen Luo obtained from the Book of Akasha, there is a price to pay.

They learned it, but they didn't know how to use it.
