Give Zongman some collapse shock

"Of course I..." Loki paused, his expression twisted, "I do feel a little wronged."

"But if she doesn't say it, then you are not one anymore?" Kiana asked blankly.

I really can't lie against my will.

It’s so peaceful, really so peaceful.

"hiss--"

The crowd looked at Kiana in amazement. This girl was really swearing.

"You! You!" Loki took two steps back in disbelief.

I never expected it! I never expected it! I thought I would receive an apology, but what I actually faced was insults that were a hundred times more painful than ridicule.

He also called it a thief's stolen goods.

Lies don't hurt, the truth is the sharpest knife. Especially Kiana, with a clear and foolish look on her face, seemed to be sincerely asking her what she thought.

What's the matter? Do you really have to send an Infinity Blade through Loki's heart today? Did Loki break the law of heaven?

"Little girl, how can you speak so hurtfully? Teach me." Loki glared at Hestia with malicious eyes.

This white-haired girl's tongue was too venomous. Loki had to learn the art of stabbing people in the heart, and she would retaliate against Hestia tenfold or a hundredfold in the future. As for bringing Kiana into her family, she had no intention of doing that. If she really kept her around, she, the evil god, would be depressed.

"Ah? No, I'm just telling the truth." Kiana blinked blankly.

Even dirtier!

Loki's face flushed instantly.

"Bastard! Bastard! You are all the same kind of people! Just wait for me, little dwarf, I will never let you go!" The evil god ran away crying.

"Wow, this is the first time I see Loki like this. Kiana, you are so awesome!" Hestia hugged Kiana happily.

The little face rubbed against Kiana's belly.

The crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.

Only Jiang Chen and Mei, who had just joined the guild and were amazed at Kiana's fighting ability, were left. The two looked at each other, their eyes conveying some message.

"I told you this girl wouldn't be bullied if she were outside. You saw it."

"Is that what you're concerned about?" Mei looked a little strange. "Compared to her aggressiveness, isn't it more surprising that a teacup dog has a licker?"

"What's a teacup dog?"

"Little green tea plus licking dog, teacup dog, that's right."

"Ah, this..." Jiang Chen nodded in a speechless manner, tentatively acknowledging this statement, and then looked at Hestia who was madly taking advantage of the white-haired ball in the distance.

I have to admit that sometimes it's quite magical. Mei's dog-licker has a dog-licker, but it's not Mei's dog-licker.

To verify, Jiang Chen pulled Mei over.

"Ah, Mei!"

Kiana's eyes lit up and she was filled with joy.

At the same time, Hestia showed an expression as if the sky had fallen, and then followed in a rage. Behind Kiana, she bared her teeth at Mei and threatened her fiercely.

"Is this really okay with you?"

"Hey, who are you?" Hestia was slightly stunned when she saw Jiang Chen who had come to her side without her noticing.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that your behavior bothers Kiana."

"How is that possible! My Kiana is so cute, she will definitely forgive me!"

"Really?" Jiang Chen snorted meaningfully and pointed at Meiyi: "It's obvious that Kiana likes her, and if you keep standing between them, even if Kiana doesn't say it now, she will definitely feel dissatisfied. If this goes on for a long time, she will eventually get tired of you."

Hestia's pupils trembled.

"So, instead of being willful and ignorant, you should be nicer to Kiana's sweetheart. Pleasing her is a disguised way of pleasing Kiana. Only by being sensible and generous can you gain positive feedback."

After hearing these words, Hestia understood.

Although it feels a bit weird, it seems to make sense.

This man with a scumbag face in front of me might be a great master of emotions!

"Master! Please teach me how to win the favor of girls!"

"Humph! This isn't that simple, watch carefully."

Jiang Chen smiled confidently and walked forward boldly. In front of Kiana's dazed and stunned expression, he put his arms around Mei's slender waist and admired the girl's blushing face.

"I'm going to take her away today. Let's see who dares to stop me!" After saying this, Jiang Chen took Meiyi away domineeringly.

The key point is that Mei had a shy look on her face. Although she kept struggling and pushing, her footsteps were following honestly.

This scene made Hestia even more convinced that Jiang Chen was a master of emotions.

Chun, who had received Jiang Chen's hint in the previous second, understood it almost instantly, and pulled her own main god and slowly approached.

"Goddess Hestia, good night. The one you were talking to just now is the new leader of our clan. What did you two talk about that made the leader... uh, take that girl and leave?"

"Is he your leader?"

"Yes, his name is Jiang Chen. He's a trustworthy person."

"Nice name!" Hestia smiled widely, pulled Chun aside, and secretly asked about Jiang Chen's past.

Now, her path forward is clear.

Please Jiang Chen to gain emotional skills. Then please Mei Yi to obtain the strongest wingman. Finally, please Kiana to achieve the ultimate achievement of a lifelong couple.

After learning about the other party's plan from Hestia, Tsubaki's expression suddenly became very subtle.

Doesn't this mean licking those three people one by one?

However, Chun certainly wouldn't say no. Instead, she started to flatter him with an admiring look on her face.

The truth is, Chun really didn't know the new captain's past. However, Chun, who was determined to become Jiang Chen's most capable lackey, would say nice things in a roundabout way, convincing Hestia that it was absolutely right to listen to Jiang Chen.

The eloquent speech was just short of saying that believing in Jiang Chen would grant one eternal life.

Don’t say anything, one dares to say it, the other dares to believe it, and the god and the man are chatting enthusiastically.

Hephaestus, who was just listening, had a completely new understanding of his best friend and the child he once had the most hope for.

"How come you are even crazier than me?"

041 I just want to die, it’s so hard

Time flies, and March has passed in the blink of an eye.

Because Jiang Chen took over the Hephaestus clan, the business circle of the entire labyrinth city of Orario underwent tremendous changes.

Countless powerful magical items with various properties and effects flowed out from the Hephaestus family. This also changed the structure of the various factions, benefiting many adventurers. Relying on their equipment advantages to challenge powerful enemies, level 2 adventurers emerged like mushrooms after rain, emerging one after another without anyone noticing.

When money accumulates to a certain amount, it becomes meaningless.

It's just a string of numbers.

The Families then turned their attention to the Magic Crystals. Thanks to the improved status of the Families, Hephaestus successfully reached a deal with Uranus, who was in charge of the guild, and obtained the right to purchase a certain share of the Magic Crystals.

This is not easy, it is unprecedented.

You should know that magic crystals are widely used in the world of the Underworld. Numerous technologies have been developed based on them, such as food, which can be used for freezing and heating, as well as daily life, such as elevators and magic stone lamps. Magic crystals are in great demand worldwide, with supply exceeding demand, and selling them to Orario can bring in enormous profits.

Therefore, the control of magic crystals is quite strict, and the business has always been monopolized by the guild.

It's different now.

Although the transaction stated that all acquired magic crystals would be used for equipment forging, the fact that they were able to get a share of the profits from the guild was already a testament to the Hephaestus Family's unique position in Orario.

Of course, these are no longer important to Jiang Chen.

Dungeon maze 37th floor [Arena].

In this special area, monsters spawn infinitely and the battle seems to never stop.

"Boom - boom -"

The roar of battle continued.

"How many days have it been?"

Punch! Kick! Slash!

Swinging the sword in hand, he swiftly shuttled through countless monsters using only his physical abilities. Whether it was an undead skeleton monster, a scaly lizard, or a standing wolf, all the monsters in his path were split in two in a flash of cold light, turning into dust and dissipating, leaving only a pile of magic crystals on the ground.

Then, monsters refreshed, constantly emerging from the ground and walls.

"The dungeon is the womb that breeds monsters."

The Arena perfectly captures the meaning of this statement.

Here there is constant fighting, constant fighting, and endless slaughter.

Jiang Chen had completely lost his sense of time. His expression was numb and his thoughts were confused. Swinging his weapon became an instinct, and killing monsters became like breathing, something he had to do as long as he was alive.

so tired.

sleepy.

It feels like I will fall asleep as soon as I close my eyes.

"Why am I here?" While fighting, Jiang Chen forgot his original intention.

Oh, by the way, I come here to pursue the limit and to improve myself.

After receiving the [Blessing], he, Mei, and Kiana would go to the dungeon every day to level up. After discovering the bug that [Strengthen] could directly convert magic stones into ability points, in just one week, all of their ability points reached the SSS limit.

Next, naturally seek to upgrade to LV2.

Upgrading requires great deeds, but what exactly are the so-called great deeds?

——Self-improvement.

Simply put, defeating the strong with the weak is the most direct way to achieve great things. Just work yourself to death and you're done.

then……

No! No! Not at all!

The three of them went on an expedition together, exploring unknown areas. They found a door in the deepest part of the dungeon, which could only be opened with a key.

They were stuck because they couldn't obtain important items, but other monsters were no big deal to them. Furthermore, as their abilities increased, the amount of Honkai energy at their disposal grew, making the monsters seem even weaker.

In the entire dungeon, there is no creature more powerful than the Herrscher.

——Conclusion, unless the Herrscher challenges and defeats the gods, he cannot level up.

The three of them were in despair.

After the setback, they held a discussion meeting to analyze carefully what great achievements really were.

The path of the weak defeating the strong is not feasible, so just copy other cases, there must be one that suits you, right?

Things like overcoming one's inner demons and forging weapons beyond one's own skill.

In short, surpass yourself.

Conclusion, Correction: Great achievements are not physical breakthroughs or great historical events. Their essence is the sublimation of the spirit and soul.

So the three of them tried it themselves.

Kiana said she had her own method, and then she became listless every day like an eggplant hit by frost.

Mei used the traditional skills of the Raiden family taught by her father, sword Zen, which outsiders really couldn't understand.

Jiang Chen attempted to challenge the limits of the human body. Even if monsters shattered at the touch of a Herrscher, if there were enough of them and the battle lasted long enough, even a Herrscher would tire. If he could endure, he might even accomplish great things.

This method is a bit stupid, but it's the only way.

then……

one day.

Two days.

Three days.
