Chapter 478: Minerva's Guidance, the God of Cookery's Hearth
Asgard.
The lush green grass in front of Valhalla.
The long dining table was filled with the feast that Yeats created with his divine power.
All the delicacies are shining like gems, making people salivate.
The Black Knight, Brunhilde, Artemis, and Skach happily sat down and shared the delicacies cooked by the new God of Food with the mythical beasts of Valhalla. The scene was as beautiful and harmonious as a classical oil painting.
The food on the table was so perfect that it was almost like a law. Every bite was a sweet experience, and happiness was born spontaneously after entering the mouth. Even the serious gods could not help but smile slightly after tasting the feast in front of them.
The little squirrel swung its big fluffy tail and shuttled across the long wooden table. It picked up a piece of cheese and stuffed it into its cheek pouch. While chewing, it said, "Just eat it... and eat it without making a sound!"
at the same time.
Ye Zhi was carefully observing the "salt block" that was suspended above the divine realm in his body and was shaped like a cube like a Rubik's Cube.
According to the goat Hellend who is familiar with the God of Food, this piece of salt is the embodiment of the law of food and the manifestation of the God of Food's divinity.
It is through this law that he can cross the planes and show miracles to the humans in the mortal world - the law, as something that has existed since the birth of the Nine Realms, can be effective in the nine planes at the same time.
The Outer Gods, led by the "Supreme Will", intend to destroy all the old gods and rebuild a world after the end of the world where the old beliefs do not exist and is filled with so-called truth, goodness and beauty...
The mere fact that it wanted to destroy humanity was something Yeats could not tolerate.
The most urgent task, in addition to continuing to improve his strength, is to eliminate the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
How to show his miracles in the world and let people spread his faith was also something Yeats needed to consider.
After all, faith is an important source of divine power, the more the better. Even if the power of faith is not used in normal times, this part of faith can still benefit Yeats in future wars between gods.
'Compared to the gods of magic, moonlight, and the ocean, the belief in the God of Food is too weak. The eighth ring is the upper limit of this godhood.'
Yeats was still somewhat envious of the divinity of the God of Light.
'And everyone in the world is pursuing light... everyone's heart is actively looking forward to the light of hope... if you can inherit the godhood of the God of Light, you don't need to preach, the power of faith will also surge, and it will be easy to achieve the ninth ring! '
Long before he was promoted to the Eighth Ring, Ye Zhi had already begun collecting information about the Slate of Light.
Now that you have achieved the God of Food, you can move more freely in the material plane.
It is worth mentioning that there are two main ways to become a true God. One is to become a god through faith, and the other is to practice on your own.
Ye Zhi became a god through his own practice, so when he became a god he did not need to shed his body and still retained his physical body.
It is precisely because of the body that Ye Zhi already has that he does not need a container or a body to take over, and can directly descend to the material plane... This is much more convenient than those true gods who abandon their bodies after becoming gods! Of course, "convenient" is just Ye Zhi's own opinion. According to the thinking of the true gods, the human body is weak and full of many unreasonable aspects, and it is the right way to abandon it early... If there is a need to descend to the material plane, it is enough to find a container to use.
'After returning to the material plane, try to perform a miracle and gather some believers.'
Ye Zhi thought: "If things go well... killing another Apocalypse Knight before the Apocalypse Day arrives, the chances of surviving the Doomsday Disaster will be even better!"
Although the Law of Food exists to restrain the Law of Famine, the Famine Knight is, after all, an Eight-ringed True God who appeared thousands of years ago and has now awakened again, so Ye Zhi has no choice but to treat him with caution.
Treasures, faith, holy places, laws and even magical pets are all the key to determining the victory or defeat in the battle of gods.
Ye Zhi counted the artifacts he currently had.
The Shield of Medusa, the Flute of Pan, the Dragon-Slaying Sword 'Balmung', the Golden Sword 'Giulvaeus', the Immortal Sword 'Durandl', the Sword of Victory 'Broken Steel', the Winged Boots of Medes, the Tower of Night, the Moon River... These are all epic treasures that can play a good role in the Sanctuary stage, but they are a little weak when it comes to the War of Gods.
Fortunately, Yeats learned some methods of applying the laws from Mammon.
At worst, we can open the treasure house and throw away whatever is in it.
Rely on the advantage of the number of treasures to win!
"Next time we meet, I will offer up the Moon River and the Dark Night Tower, and use the Holy Sword to replace the arrows fired at me..."
Ye Zhi thought to himself: "Salute to the most ancient hero king!"
As for the legendary treasures, the Wolf Binding Chain, the Silver Oak Sword, the Lyre of Light, and Arenil can all play a decisive role in the battle of the eighth ring level.
It’s just like in the Norse mythology of the previous life, the artifact ‘Mjolnir’ can increase the power of Thor to a whole level!
The Silver Oak Sword is the same... This sword has a special attack on divine units. Even defensive areas are as thin as a cicada's wing in front of this sword and will be broken.
The artifact 'Wolf Binding Chains' bestowed by the Black Knight is so valuable that it is equivalent to the broken laws of war. Even the World-Devouring Wolf Fenrir cannot escape its bondage, and the control effect can be imagined.
It was precisely because of the God of Food's divine nature that he was not afraid of a war of attrition that the Black Knight gave this treasure to Ye Zhi... Apart from consuming mana and requiring multitasking to control, this treasure has almost no other disadvantages!
The Lyre of Light is the embodiment of the authority of the God of Light, Music.
If it can inherit the godhood of the God of Light, this artifact can also be sublimated, allowing Yeats to become the god who controls the world's "music".
Arenil is even greater, needless to say, without this artifact, Ye Zhi would not even be qualified to start the God of Food ceremony.
In general, with four legendary artifacts and an inestimable [Ring of the Nibelung], even though Ye Zhi had just been promoted to the eighth ring, he was not inferior in terms of background and accumulation.
Ye Zhi sighed silently in his heart: "It's a pity that the law of the God of Food is not good at attacking... If you want to go further in the eight-ring level of the God War, you have to further strengthen this godhood!"
Seeing a hint of worry in Ye Zhi's brows, Skach tilted his head, his purple gem eyes flickered slightly, and he gently held Ye Zhi's hand under the table.
"You have accomplished a miracle... There is no need to put too much burden on yourself..." Skach opened his lips slightly, and a magnetic and gentle message sounded in Ye Zhi's ears, saying, "Disciple... Disciple... I will be your helper..."
A warm feeling surged in Ye Zhi's heart and he nodded silently.
The several true gods present can all be considered his allies.
In the fight against the apocalypse, it can also become a vital reinforcement! "What a pity that Ye Zhi has to return to the human world." Artemis tore off a hare leg and said with emotion without caring about the appearance of eating, "Today, it is a rare blessing to be able to taste the delicacies cooked by the God of Food himself."
The Black Knight looked solemn and majestic. He slowly tore the bread and dipped it into the creamy soup. He said slowly, "In Asgard, the divine domain cannot be used at will... Only with the permission of the three goddesses can one live in Asgard for a long time."
"Which three goddesses?" Yeats asked.
"Magic, moonlight, dark night... these are the few powerful divine powers today." The Black Knight held his forehead with his hand and sighed, "The original intention of this system was to restrain the three gods from each other, but for some reason, the goddess of magic Minerva is the current manager of Asgard..."
When talking about the Goddess of Magic, there was a hint of respect in the Black Knight's tone.
"In fact, the Goddess of Magic did fulfill her duties and kept Asgard in good order. She also left her miracles in the atrium for humans to spread."
Compared to the two goddesses who quarrel with each other on a daily basis, the magic goddess is unexpectedly reliable.
Not only is she highly respected in the world of gods, but she also has a miracle called "Magic Net" created by her own hands in the human world, which grants humans the power to cast magic.
Since the Goddess of Magic guards the Fountain of Wisdom, Minerva also possesses the authority of the "Law of Wisdom".
Ye Zhi had been curious about her true body for a long time, but he had never had the chance to see it. When he saw the Black Knight talking about Minerva, he asked curiously, "Where is Minerva now? Is she still in the God Realm?"
The Black Knight nodded. "Just three days ago, when you were in a deep sleep due to digesting the God of Food, she sensed your aura of promotion and sent her messenger... According to her, when you wake up, she will come to see you in person."
Ye Zhi was slightly startled, thinking, "Such a big thing, why didn't you tell me earlier?" But he saw that all the gods looked calm, and Zuan Ya also looked relaxed as if he had calmed down a long time ago. He said while chewing:
"Come on if you want...just add a pair of chopsticks!"
Yeats really had many questions to ask Minerva.
For example, the origin of the Snowy Owl’s almost bizarre magical talent.
And why the gods sat back and watched the heavens invade the material plane and did nothing.
Now, he is already an eight-ring true god. In hell, he can stand on equal footing with Mammon and other lords of original sin. He can also have a proper sect and temple in the material plane.
Yeats seemed to have the right and qualification to know the truth, and decided to take advantage of this meeting with the goddess of magic to clarify the confusion in his heart.
Not long.
A blue light of space teleportation, accompanied by a strong magical aura, surged in front of Valhalla.
The person who came was wearing armor and holding a spear. When the figure landed on the green grass, the sharp aura was replaced by softness, and the silver-white armor turned into a plain white robe.
Minerva wore a wreath of olive branches and had her brown hair braided into a ring. She was dignified and beautiful, like a girl with bright eyes and white teeth, who looked no more than about twenty years old.
A holy aura surged from her body, and her soft eyes looked at Ye Zhi with a flash of favor.
"I don't think this is the first time we've met, Yeats."
Minerva spoke. She looked like a young girl but had a mature voice, eyes as deep as an ancient well, and a smile on her lips.
"To be precise... you brought me a great surprise... I witnessed with my own eyes a miracle accomplished by a mortal."
Yeats placed his hand on his heart and saluted Minerva.
The Black Knight and other gods also showed respect to the manager of the divine world and saluted together.
Minerva nodded slightly, indicating that she came here to show concern for the new true god in the divine world. Seeing that Ye Zhi had digested the godhood peacefully, she could also feel at ease.
"Please wait a moment, Goddess Minerva..." Ye Zhi stared at Minerva's back in a white robe and said, "To be honest, I have something to ask you."
Minerva paused, smiled and said, "If there is anything I can answer, I will tell you the truth."
"My magical pet...it is your chosen one, and its magical talent...to be honest, it is far beyond the reach of creatures in the mortal world." Ye Zhi summoned the snowy owl, lifted the snow-white owl on his shoulders, gently stroked its feathers, and asked, "I want to know...does my snowy owl have the blessing you have bestowed on it?"
Minerva stared at the snowy owl, a trace of reminiscence in her eyes, and she said slowly: "In the old days, the God King once tamed two crows, which symbolized memory and thought respectively... Every dawn, the two crows flew to the human world, and returned at night to report to their king..."
Minerva smiled slightly, "So, the sacred bird can also be the eyes and ears."
"Later, I followed Odin's example and sent out my sacred bird to patrol the world at dusk... But the sacred bird also has its own cycle of life and death, and even I cannot reverse the passing of life."
Minerva looked at the proud Snow Owl with a nostalgic look in her eyes, and said softly: "It has inherited the wisdom of the holy bird, but it is not the same creature as before..."
"It has established a connection with you and found a new family in this vast world." Minerva's eyes flickered and she said, "This is its luck, and yours too, Yeats."
Yeats was thoughtful.
According to this, Snowy Owl was really Minerva’s owl in its previous life!
No wonder he has such amazing magical talent...
"I have another question." Ye Zhi said.
Minerva blinked, a hint of interest showing on her dignified and elegant face: "Are you asking how to further improve the God of Food's godhood?"
Ye Zhi asked sincerely: "Do you have any solution?"
"some."
Minerva smiled softly and said, "The God of Food is not good at fighting. His strengths are mainly reflected in enhancement and assistance. For example, the spell 'Feast of Heroes' can turn a dying warrior into a fanatical hero in an instant."
"However, in his laws, he also possesses an offensive power... This power is related to fire and is called [Stove Fire]."
Power can be seen as the magic or combat skills of gods, and sometimes it will be materialized into something tangible.
Ye Zhi was surprised and asked, "【Stove Fire】?"
"The stove fire is also a sacred fire."
Minerva said: "The God of Cooking Ande is not the first owner of the Law of Food. Before him, there was a God of Hearth and Fire who obtained the Law of Food. Flame symbolizes his existence and is the guarantee of family sustainability, stability, harmony and prosperity... Therefore, this god became the patron saint of hearth and family, and was promoted to a powerful god."
"His hearth fire is more powerful than the flames of judgment and death that you used to use... because it is the flame that symbolizes the survival of mankind, and it fits you as a human being very well, Yeats." Minerva said in a soft voice.
Stove fire!
Although the Kitchen God in the East is a terrestrial deity, he possesses great power. The god of fire and family in Greek mythology is one of the twelve main gods!
Regardless of ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, the stove fire born with food is always the origin of prosperous faith! Family... This is exactly what Yeats wants to protect, the so-called "family hero" is like this.
"If you can get the stove fire, you will definitely be one step closer to the ninth ring!"
Ye Zhi couldn't help but feel a sense of longing in his heart, and said, "Then where can I get the fire for the stove?"
There was a glimmer of cunning in Minerva's eyes, which was keenly caught by Yeats.
Yeats was in a delicate mood.
Was she waiting for me to ask this on purpose?
"The fire of the stove is currently in the cauldron guarded by the fire giant in Muspelheim, in the [Land of Fire] plane."
Minerva smiled and said, "The spirit of Surtur, the ancestor of the fire giants, is guarding the eternal holy fire in Muspelheim."
"I believe you can take back the fire from Surtur." Minerva said with a firm look:
"Because your level of alignment with the Law of Food is unprecedented in history, you will definitely be able to bring the power of the God of Food to a new level!"
Ye Zhi: “…”
Ye Zhi had an inexplicable sense of déjà vu. The goddess of wisdom in front of him seemed to be Athena in "Saint Seiya", who used various methods to trick the Saint Seiya into working for her.
Looking up and down at the pure and flawless Minerva with a strange look in his eyes, Yeats wondered: "This goddess...wouldn't be black if she were cut open?"
