On the table were cooked braised lamb scorpion, soy mustard cabbage heart, spicy and sour potato shreds, fruit platter, and three bowls of rice.
Lu Yao invited Isabel and Harrow to have dinner together.
No matter what time, eat well.
During his previous trip to Da Qin, Lu Yao basically ran around shopping for goods, or gathering information, and just ate some cakes to fill his stomach.
Now he was cooking with sheep and scorpions, and soon ate two large bowls. After feeling slightly full, he started chatting with Haro.
"Hello, do you think the Death Gods are interested in the border zone?"
Harrow bit into a piece of sheep scorpion and licked the soup and muscles on it: "It's hard to say. The border zone is close to the over-limit area, which will lock the power of the godhead. Under normal circumstances, most gods are not willing to go there.
…”
"What if I paid this god of death 1 billion in faith?"
"I'm not sure. Because when you enter there, the God of Death has to rely on his own flight to get back and forth. Unless you use the mythical anchorage, you have to confirm the anchor point over there. In short, your behavior is restricted everywhere, and there is a lot of risk.
.”
"2000000000."
"...I think it's okay, but it shouldn't take too long."
"4 billion."
"Whoever you want to come over, I will notify him immediately and leave at any time. He can stay there for at least 100 years!"
Harrow raised his head, his eyes firm and determined.
"..."
Lu Yao said in his heart that it was indeed true.
Most of the time in the labor market, there is only one problem: whether there is enough supply.
If you pay enough, no matter how troublesome the job, someone will take it.
Lu Yao told Harrow about the current plight of the Yi Lizard clan and asked for its opinion.
The three-headed hell dog thought for a while, and then slowly spoke: "In the early days of the development of the God descendants, there will definitely be a lot of trouble in the border area. Because it is difficult to use the power of gods to give birth to prophets and heroes, there are regulations on sacrifices and rituals.
, as well as the field of faith, are all susceptible to influence and destruction..."
"I suggest that you consider [The Exile of Helheim] Hela."
"After the anchorage of Nordic mythology was closed, Hela has been wandering by the River Styx in the underworld, and she is definitely free now. Hela believes that everyone will be destroyed sooner or later, so she spends precious time arguing and competing for the leadership and voice among the myths.
It’s very ridiculous.”
"He focuses on exploring the essence of the phenomenon of death. He has been conducting research on the truth side. He has also frequently entered the border zone and has a better understanding of the situation there."
"Hela has no prejudice against different myths and civilizations - in fact, many gods are somewhat racist, and there are very few like you."
Harrow said: "For example, some hate the undead, some laugh at pacifism, and some only recognize chaos and the supremacy of the strong... For Hela, the most important thing is to study death through civilization and gods.
The end. He is also very willing to discuss the subject of death with other gods in a civilized manner. He is very close to the people and is extremely patient and perseverant."
"But Hela also has an outstanding shortcoming. He is not the kind of sunny and cheerful God of Death. He is easily depressed and depressed. He often shows a sense of gloomy negativity, thinking that the world is hopeless and everything will perish... But other than that
Other than that, He is really good."
Lu Yao understood.
Hela is an academic death god who has no interest in the battle between gods and humans. She prefers mourning and has a personality that is prone to emo.
But he knows the local area in the bordering zone very well, and in the past he could guide the lizard people to adapt to the ecology there.
What's more important is that the God of Death is in charge - even though the labor is outsourced, it also allows the lizard people to have a garrisoned god to rely on and help them, so that they will feel inspired and more confident.
Lu Yao believed in the three-headed dog's vision and immediately said: "Then Hela, you can contact him later and bring him to me."
"Okay! Thank you for being willing to help the Death Gods!"
Harrow looked grateful.
Lu Yao couldn't help but smile and said: "You have a really good relationship with the gods of death, and you are still finding ways for them to generate income everywhere."
"Because we originally belong to the same source."
The three-headed dog took another two mouthfuls of meat with its face turned sideways, and said vaguely: "The final destination of the God of Death is the underworld. They just come from different worlds and myths. They will eventually come to the underworld. This is their true destination."
The return journey and habitat...this is not confidential information, and many gods know it."
Lu Yao suddenly realized something, but it wasn't quite clear.
"you mean?"
"The titles and positions of the Gods of Death in various worlds and myths are just temporary residences and positions for the Gods of Death." Harrow said casually while eating bones.
"The gods of death are all gods of the underworld. They are just in different worlds, fulfilling their local responsibilities of maintaining the passage to the underworld, and they will return to the underworld."
Lu Yao suddenly realized.
No wonder Harrow said before that the gods of death will always stay in the underworld for a while.
It turns out that they are all expatriate employees. They are basically gods seconded to various mythological systems. Their human relations and organization are in the underworld.
"But in fact, most Death Gods prefer to operate in the outside world. Because there are few places in the underworld, it is difficult for them to be directly promoted. They must rely on other myths or worlds to gain strength..."
The Death Gods can continue to accumulate resources and reputation by staying in various mythology and civilization systems. The core of resources is the power of faith, and reputation is another important criterion, which is usually closely related to faith and believers.
Generally speaking, the more famous and influential the God of Death is, the higher his status is and the more choices he has.
As for these people, as Haro said, their careers are not going well for various reasons, but their abilities are excellent.
Therefore, as a friend and colleague, Harrow, in line with the classic spirit of chivalry, wants to help everyone as much as possible - even though it itself has been kicked out of the Cerberus sequence.
"Understood."
Lu Yao took the wet tissue handed over by Isabel and wiped his mouth: "You are kind to them."
"Everyone is for one, and I am for everyone."
Harrow said matter-of-factly.
Lu Yao took a look and saw that Isabel next to her was holding rice and eating. There was already a lot of lamb bones piled on the plate.
After being watched, she immediately put down her bowls and chopsticks, without even having time to wipe off the rice grains on her mouth.
"Keep eating yours."
"yes!"
Then she continued to cook.
"You guys eat slowly, I'll go check on the situation first."
Lu Yao brought a small bowl of grapes and fruits and returned to the computer screen.
…
On the screen, a large area was plunged into the fog of war, with only the central area visible.
Xing Tianluo had a three-layered crown on his neck, making him look like a headless feathered man with a head.
The crown is completely black, with layers of red patterns carved on the surface, and silver stars on it. It is more like a crown worn by some mysterious ceremony than a royal crown.
At this time, a dialog box popped up on the crown: "The stars are your destination... Become the great Lord of the Gods, and you will be the King of Kings."
"Become "Tian Shen An" and you will rule this world."
However, its bewitchment has no effect, because the headless feathered man does not have a head part that represents autonomous consciousness, but is just a tool body.
Xing Tian didn't seem to think this thing was an enemy and didn't attack it.
Lu Yao clicked on the three-layer crown to get its data panel.
…

…
Archon of the Myth of the Stars?
An, Tianshen An. I seem to have seen this name somewhere.
Lu logged into the committee's database and summoned Baroye on the computer side.
As soon as Baloye saw the situation on the screen, he immediately said excitedly: "Big boss, this is a spirit! And he is a high-level spirit who has been assigned to take charge of a myth!"
"Big boss, you must win it. As long as you win it, you will be able to completely control the myth of the stars! In any case, it is a complete myth. Every myth created in the spiritual world has its own specific purpose!"
It is indeed Shiling.
Lu Yao asked: "How to win?"
"Uh... I don't know. I don't have the same authority as the Shiling. I can't recruit or capture it."
Lu Yao frowned.
Baroye immediately said nervously: "Think hard, think hard!!"
Its black mud-like head began to glow, and streaks of golden light emerged inside, as if it were a strange black light bulb that was lit. It covered its ears with both hands and fell into a frantic search state.
Isabel turned on the fan and pointed it at Barroye to cool down its head.
Lu Yao returned his attention to the screen.
There is information about the Triple Crown in the committee's database.
"The sky god An in Sumerian mythology is considered the highest god and the ruler of the sky and stars. He is regarded as a god who can control the weather, the order of the universe and the forces of nature."
"An is usually depicted on the stone tablet as a triple crown placed on a throne. His army and soldiers are the stars he created to destroy evil... An never easily left the kingdom of heaven and went to earth."
"...In the creation myth, when facing Tiamat, An did not fight, and the glory of saving the gods was left to Marduk."
"As the creator of all things, An is regarded as the ultimate source of life and the universe. However, this title was lost very early, and the second generation of [God An] was not born. The Sumerian mythology also quickly entered the successor
[Spiritual Lord] The rule of Enlil. Enlil is the only god who can reach the kingdom of heaven. He rules over other gods..."
The Sumerian creator god, the god An.
It turned out to be a high-level warrior.
From this point of view, the birth of Sumerian mythology is closely related to the myth of the stars.
Lu Yao thought and looked at the screen.
The Triple Crown still plays the role of leader, still nagging and persuading.
If Yu Ren is taken back, Weeping Blood Amber doesn't know if he can also take An in. If he tries and makes a mistake, he may lose this best opportunity.
Sui beads and jade are special attacks on treasures, but they are ineffective against special beings such as spirit people.
Dragon rope?
But the spirit people are not strictly flesh and blood, especially this [Mythical Archon], which is more like a prop with self-awareness.
Lu Yao tried to click on the crown.
A line of text suddenly pops up on the simulator
【Ann discovered your existence.】
[An has changed from neutrality to loyalty to you.]
A line of words appeared on the crown: "Dear psychic permitter, [Mythic Archon] Ann reports to you and accepts your inspection and order."
It left Xingtian and floated in the center of the screen, surrounded by white light.
Lu Yao was overjoyed.
He was familiar with this situation. The black bull Atum was also like this before.
Lu Yao quickly clicked on an apostle mark, transforming An smoothly into an apostle.
Then the shape of the crown slowly changed, turning into an old man holding a scepter, just like the image of a classical wise man.
"It's on fire," Isabel said suddenly.
Lu Yao took a look and saw flames coming out of Baloye's head next to him and black smoke starting to emit.
Damn it.
It would be troublesome if it attracts neighbors.
"Stop, stop, stop using your brain!"
Under Lu Yao's order, Baroye's brain-burning gradually subsided.
"Big boss, Baloye's head is hot. Ba, Baloye may need to take a short rest..." The spirit collector's voice was weak and lagging.
Lu Yao asked him to adjust it and quickly threw it back to the virtual world.
