Hermes waved his hand and told his clansmen that he was following the Guild's instructions to regulate the relationships between the clans and clans, and between clans and non-clan members in Orario.
In reality, of course, that’s not the case.
The blue-haired beauty pushed her glasses up and glanced at Hermes calmly, her eyes full of scrutiny.
"What...what's wrong, Yasfi?"
Hermes wondered, feeling that something was wrong.
"Some things cannot be said casually." The blue-haired and blue-eyed girl handed a newspaper to Hermes.
On the front page of the newspaper, Hermes commented sharply on the adventurers.
Hermes' mouth twitched slightly as he read on.
The adventurers' humiliating defeat in the past two days has become the hottest topic in Orario. Let's see what Hermes, the god of travel, has to say about this.
Hermes, who was always straightforward, said bluntly that if the adventurers continued to lose like this, they would probably lose all their dignity.
You said adventurers, how many adventurers have been replaced one after another?
The immortals also have their reasons. Who are the people I am leading? They are the ancient heroes. Who are you? Why are you asking me to lead them?
What is the current level of Orario? Even you, the Lokifreya family, are preparing to defeat the black dragon. Can you defeat it? You can't defeat it. You don't have the ability to do it, right?
The next thing to lose is the Black Dragon. After losing the Black Dragon, they couldn't pass the Magic Tower. Then they lost to the external forces of Orario. Then no one lost, everyone lost.
I've said it before, adventurers nowadays haven't laid a solid foundation. Can you guarantee me that he can win at such a critical moment as defeating the black dragon?
Be pragmatic.
I advise you young people to be more pragmatic and understand your own upgrade method and the concept of God's Grace first. The fairies are very good at leading heroes, so why do you have to replace them?
Now we lose 0:28, how can you tell me how to explain it?
The face is gone.
Hermes fell silent.
"This has brought a lot of trouble to the clan." Yasifei looked at her own main god coldly. It would have been fine if her main god didn't develop the clan and just wandered around, but he not only wandered around, but also caused a lot of trouble to the clan.
Hermes coughed dryly and tried to argue: "Is it possible... I mean maybe, this is not what I said, but someone with the pen name Hermes said it?"
"Then who do you think it is?"
"…Well, I wrote it when I had time."
Hermes didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He really knows who wrote this, but... anyway, you have the bigger fist so you are right, so can't he take the blame?
I want to visit other worlds.
Life is not easy, Momo sighed.
He is probably one of the few gods who knows the inside story of Orario. Now that he is planning to take action against the gods, the fewer people who know about it, the better.
Even his former colleagues might not know the whole story, but he...
He is a traveler after all, and the temptation of traveling to another world is too great for him, and it almost hits his sore spot.
If other gods knew about this, they might have some evil thoughts, but only he...
He was willing to betray Zeus, so he just had to take the blame.
Thinking this in his mind, Hermes glanced slightly towards a dining table nearby and the two people sitting at the table.
Do you really think he just picked a time and a place at random?
In the past three days, he has been the most tired god in Orario, but also the most well-informed god in Orario.
The real owner has Loki's followers, so isn't he looking for an opportunity to improve his favorability?
Hermes knew that his personality was not likable and his work was not solid, but looking at all the gods, he believed that his wisdom was ranked among the best and his value was quite good.
He accepted the fact that he was not among the first group of gods who went to another world. After all, he was not an innocent or upright goddess.
But it’s impossible that even the second batch won’t get a turn, right?
It doesn't matter whether he becomes stronger or not. This opportunity to travel to another world is not allowed to him as a traveler. It would be better to kill him as well.
But this is not the time!
Hermes sighed inwardly and glanced at a goddess at the dining table out of the corner of his eye.
Goddess of justice Astraea... Tsk, it's only been a short while since Uranus summoned the gods from outside to return to Orario, and you came back so quickly.
Chapter 39
"Nice to meet you, God from another world!"
Opposite Su Qing was a woman with waist-length brown hair. She wore a white dress and always had a gentle smile on her face.
Since the small garden, Su Qing has also seen some gods, including in Orario.
The so-called God is neither good nor evil, but a life of a higher level. Gods are like humans. Human personalities are all kinds of strange, and so are gods.
But the goddess before him, at least on the surface, is the most in line with the "god", and conforms to human beings' beautiful fantasy of gods.
She was dignified, polite, and graceful, as if she could get close to everyone. However, she was obviously a top beauty, but her every move exuded a nobility that made it difficult for people to have evil thoughts, a noble feeling that seemed completely different from that of humans.
Su Qing shook his head slightly in his heart and said with a smile: "I am not a god."
"Human?" asked the goddess of justice doubtfully.
"Human." Su Qing nodded.
"Sorry, I'm being rude." The goddess looked apologetic and said, "...I had a preconceived notion."
"It doesn't matter." Su Qing shrugged and said, "After all, they have hundreds of millions of years of experience. It's normal to think that the powerful ones are gods. Just pay more attention to it in the future."
"It's fine for me..." Su Qing shrugged, "But when you get to that world, being bound by the common sense accumulated in this world will be fatal."
Astraea smiled and responded, "Thank you for your reminder, Sir Human."
"Your Excellency the Human..." Hearing this, Su Qing shook his head slightly and couldn't help laughing: "This kind of address... is quite interesting."
Although he was indeed a human, being addressed as such as this was a very novel experience as the final trial of humanity.
Astraea shrugged and said with a smile, "So, Your Excellency Su Qing, did you deliberately choose this place as the place for this conversation?"
"After all, your family members are working here!" Su Qing replied, "It's on the way."
Astraea paused and looked at the elf girl who was working as a waitress in the store not far away.
Although she was so close, Liu didn't see the main god at all. The appearance of gods was difficult to change, so it was impossible that Liu had forgotten her. Perhaps the alien visitor in front of him used some shielding methods?
If she used her divine power, she could do something similar and make others ignore her.
Astraea looked at the favor she hadn't seen for a long time and sighed softly.
"...I'm sorry to have embarrassed you because of my useless family."
Astraea said this in a funny way, but her eyes were full of worry when she looked at Liu.
A few years ago, her family was a well-known rising star in Orario.
During the turbulent period when Zeus and Hera's family failed to defeat the black dragon and the order of Orario collapsed, no members were killed or injured.
Not only that, he also protected the city and killed Alfia, who was at level 7 at the time - although Alfia let him go on purpose, and some members of Loki's family were also present at the time.
But no matter how you look at it, we have been through a lot of ups and downs.
After defeating the turmoil caused by Erebus, the city as a whole returned to peace, but when hunting down the remaining dark factions, her family suffered a setback.
The Dark Clan faction caused the dungeon to collapse. Although her clan did not die in the explosion, the explosion angered the dungeon and gave birth to special monsters that were specialized in killing adventurers.
If that were all, it would just be bad luck. Even in the eyes of Zeus and Hera's followers who had explored the most, the dungeon was full of unknowns.
Countless adventurers have died due to force majeure.
Astraea's family was attacked by the monster, and only Liu survived - if that were all, Astraea would only feel that Liu was too pitiful, and would comfort Liu to stand up, and would tell Liu that she was able to survive because her companions protected her, and she should live on in place of her companions.
But the problem is... that battle was not really an act of force majeure, but rather an unfair loss.
The monster had a shield that could reflect magic, had a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye, and had sharp claws that could easily tear apart the defenses of a first-rate adventurer, but it was definitely not something that the Astralia family at the time were unable to resist.
Unfortunately, the monster's attributes were too difficult to kill.
Astraea's initial attack used magic, but it was rebounded by the monster's shield and injured her own people. She had a disadvantageous first move, as the monster was too fast and tore through the formation in an instant, resulting in the death of several people.
So far, it was just because the means of dealing with monsters were wrong.
Afterwards, Liu became impulsive.
The Astraea Familia is not a large-scale family like the Loki Familia, but is composed of a small number of elite members. Since Liu joined the family, he has experienced many difficult battles, but has never lost a companion in the family.
The death of his companion in an instant made Liu lose his mind in anger and rushed towards the monster. He was saved by his companion from the same clan, but the price was that his companion lost a hand.
After that, the leader of her clan found the monster's weakness, quickly approached the monster, and at the cost of his own life, the monster attacked him at the same time, which was equivalent to catching the monster, and then cut open the monster's shield that could reflect magic.
Afterwards, Liu used his magic to attack the part of the monster that was exposed to blood and flesh as planned, but the monster escaped after being seriously injured.
After learning the whole story from Liu, Astraea was filled with grief and deep confusion.
This battle was accompanied by too many coincidences.
After this battle, Liu completely shut himself off.
If you are facing an enemy that you absolutely cannot defeat, if you lose, you lose, and if you die, you die. Adventurers must have this awareness, and no matter whether you have made up your mind or not, this is a reality that will definitely happen.
But the monsters that Astraea's family faced at that time were ones they could handle.
Even though his response was wrong and he was killed by the monster Chujian, he still let Liu survive.
If you meet an enemy that you absolutely cannot defeat, you won't regret it even if you die. But if you could have won by sacrificing a few of your clansmen, or even if you dealt with it correctly, you might have been able to defeat the monster without any damage, but instead your clansmen were wiped out... You can imagine the regret that Liu, who survived, felt.
That’s all.
After understanding what happened at that time, Astraea thought that even if one more person survived and left a companion to lick Liu's wounds together, Liu would not be able to completely shut himself off.
