Volume 1 Chapter 391 Sisyphus
Xiao Chou stared at Hestia who was laughing, and he couldn't understand why Hestia was so funny. He didn't know when it started, but he felt that the people in the Land of God's Grace had become a little strange.
"By the way, Xiao Chou, tell me what you did during these days in hell."
Hestia laughed for a long time before she said to Xiao Chou, "It would be best if you could go into every detail, down to every word of the Father."
"Okay..." Xiao Chou didn't understand, and after thinking for a while, he told Hestia everything that happened in hell.
From entering hell and ruling the vampire territory, to Lynch becoming the devil of the Dead Land Black Earth, to the Dead Land Black Earth is currently facing the invasion of the god Sisyphus.
"Sisyphus..." Hestia frowned, as if thinking about something.
"Do you know him?" Xiao Chou asked, as if he remembered something, and said, "The master said that this guy doesn't seem to be famous, and he was curious whether the guy could hold up one of the master's fingernails."
"Not famous?"
Hestia looked a little strange, but she didn't answer. Instead, she smiled.
Then, under Xiao Chou's gaze, he wrote many words on a parchment scroll with a goose feather brush.
After a long while, he handed the parchment with words written on it to Xiao Chou, "This is what the Father God needs. You should go and get the person according to the instructions on the paper. Oh, by the way, after you are done, you should bring all the people on the list to the Sky Garden to find Lady Hecate."
"Yes, Lady Hestia."
Xiao Chou walked out in a daze.
He followed Lynch's order and returned to the City of Grace to find the talent Lynch needed. However, as soon as he saw Hestia, he found that something was strange. The entire Land of Grace seemed to be secretly planning something, and he was the one who could not share the secret.
In the room, Hestia looked deeply at the place where Xiao Chou left. After a long while, she put on her glasses again and continued to work. "It's still a long way to go. Too far to go..."
......
After walking out of the door, Xiao Chou began to look for the talents provided by Hestia according to the list provided by Hestia.
But the more he searched, the more Xiao Chou's brows furrowed.
There are too few people. Bobo, Dao Ge, Da Bang, Da Hammer, Penny, the three-headed dog of hell - Wang Cai, and ten teams of different tribes with hundreds of people as the main group but no more than a thousand.
And when he sought out the important people in the Land of Grace, everyone was vague.
Walking on the streets where people from all ethnic groups were constantly coming and going, this group of thousands of people did not seem strange. From time to time, you could see well-equipped soldiers marching in unison, as well as long transport teams. Xiao Chou walked in front of the team and said to the important people around him, "Hey, this Land of God's Grace has changed so much. You have already reached this point in just half a month. It's really not easy."
Bobo and others looked at each other.
Finally, Penny said, "Master Xiao Chou, after the Land of Grace unified the world, the resources of the entire world are pouring towards us. Not only that, people from all over the world are mining resources for our Land of Grace, including the sea tribes and the Forgotten Forest. All the excellent and potential warriors in the world are leaning towards our Land of Grace. If we can't grow stronger in a short period of time, it will be a great disappointment to you, sir."
Xiao Chou suddenly realized and asked again: "So, are you working so hard to develop it? Are you going to attack Hell in advance? I remember the original plan was to make the master a demon king and destroy Hell from the inside, right?"
"Master Xiao Chou, please don't ask anymore." Penny suddenly shook her head, her face solemn. "The Land of Grace is changing very quickly. Sometimes even those of us who often stay in the Land of Grace can't get used to its rapid changes. You must be wondering why Master Hestia only assigned so few people to you, right?"
Xiao Chou smiled bitterly, "Yes, the Land of God's Grace has changed a lot. And Lady Hestia only gave the master a few people. You have to know that it is Hell. The master has now become a demon king and will soon come into contact with the circle of gods. I can't help but doubt Lady Hestia, and even think that she is weakening the master's power. Before the master left Hell, he had handed over all the power to Lady Hestia."
"So that's what you're worried about." Dao Ge carried a big hammer and glared at Xiao Chou. "The Land of God's Grace will always be the Land of God's Grace. We have discussed these things privately. We even consulted Lady Hestia on our own!"
"What are you asking?" Xiao Chou asked puzzledly.
The corner of Penny's mouth twitched. "The end of the world. In Lord Marcus's book of fate, the countdown to the end of the world appeared a long time ago."
"What!" Xiao Chou exclaimed, "The world is going to end, how come my master and I don't know?"
Penny rolled her eyes. "How do you know the gentleman doesn't know?"
"I..." Xiao Chou was speechless.
It turns out that Xiao Chou has always been Xiao Chou.
Then, Penny shrugged, "Come on, Master Ugly, let's go see Master Hecate. After we see her, we will forget everything."
......
At the same time.
In the magnificent palace, Sisyphus was still looking at the ceiling. This was his favorite thing to do every day.
A wrinkled space crack formed behind him, and a graceful figure walked out of it, letting out a long breath, "Huh, even if you reach the taboo level, it's still difficult to open the space."
Sisyphus still did not stand up, but a chair suddenly moved from a distance to the side of Demeter who appeared from space. "Greetings to the Holy Fire Goddess of Heaven, Lady Demeter. Oh no, you should be the Holy Fire Goddess of the Land of Grace. I am very sorry, I am thinking now, so I cannot salute you."
"Haha, you are worthy of being the brain of the goddess of night." Demeter smiled coquettishly, sat down, crossed her legs, and suddenly her eyes turned cold, "You are so brave, you dare to be so arrogant when you see me, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?!!"
Demeter's words and actions were completely different from her gentleness in the Land of Grace. She was stern and cold.
"No, you won't." Sisyphus was still looking up at the ceiling, as if there was the deepest mystery of the universe there. "If you wanted to kill me, you would have done it the first time. And a noble god like you would never come to see a small person like me unless there was something important."
"A nobody?" Demeter smiled. "You are a nobody, too?"
"Everyone says that I am the brain of the Goddess of Night. But compared with you, Lady Hestia, and Lord Zeus, I am not worth mentioning." Sisyphus laughed.
"You are indeed self-aware." Demeter was not modest. "Then please calculate what I am here for?"
"If I'm not mistaken, you want me to help the Land of Grace, help Lord Lynch Nicholas who has entered hell and become the Black Soil Demon King of the Dead Land?" Sisyphus' face was full of smiles.
"How did you calculate that?" Demeter was not surprised. For the truly intelligent gods, calculating a person's whereabouts was not a difficult task.
"It's very simple. A demon king who appeared in hell in less than half a month and was able to rule the dead land and black soil cannot be a simple existence. In fact, I have been guessing who the current demon king is until you came. The one who can make you so concerned cannot be an ordinary person in the land of God's grace. In addition, Lord Lin Qi has a conspicuous white hair, which makes it easy to guess."
Sisyphus suddenly laughed out loud. "However, Lord Demeter, the person you are helping does not seem to be very smart. If that is all he is, I have many ways to kill him."
"Not smart? Kill him?" Demeter looked at Sisyphus strangely, "I have to say, even I admire your courage..."
"oh?"
Sisyphus finally sat up, and he seemed to have confirmed something. There were not many people who could be praised and helped by Demeter. He looked at Demeter solemnly, "Lord Demeter, what can I do for you? As long as you don't tell Lord Lynch what I just said, I will agree to anything."
He had never been so scared when he was fighting in the heavens, just because he had just said something bad to Lin Qi. He even wanted to slap himself in the face now. He had been very cautious all his life, but he almost got hurt because of a word.
Demeter rolled her eyes and said, "Father God is not that stingy, don't worry."
If other gods heard Demeter call Lin Qi like this, their expressions would certainly be very interesting, but Sisyphus did not. He just frowned and waited for Demeter's order.
"According to the prophecy of the Prophet and the Three Goddesses of Fate, there will be five people who will lead the world to destruction. They are divided into 'Strategy', 'Wisdom', 'Power', 'Soul', and 'Nothingness'."
"I need you to help Father find them."
