Chapter 481 A Hero of One Person
Although the people who pay attention to Lucas are basically young people from the Peninsula of Gods, it is precisely because of this that they know more about the horror of Medusa.
Many people saw with their own eyes that Medusa ravaged the entire city. They didn’t know how many innocent citizens were harmed, and so many epic-level powerful people were ruthlessly killed by Medusa.
Even those who have never fought against Medusa know that this legendary banshee must be of mythical level.
Now that Medusa had been killed, they were both surprised and happy.
Many people left messages below asking Lucas, wanting to know whether Medusa was really killed. Many people also asked who the man who killed Medusa was and who the man holding the sword was.
Then this photo and Lucas's message spread across the Internet at the speed of light, triggering a tsunami of online discussion.
There were two main points of discussion: one was whether the photo was real or not, and the other was who the man holding the sword was. Lucas's personal homepage was almost flooded with comments, and everyone was waiting for Lucas's reply.
However, Lucas did not read the message. After posting the photo, he went to the island with Barbara.
"Haha, I knew you could do it. You are as great a hero as Lucas. You saved our city." Lucas stepped forward and gave Zhou Wen a tight hug.
"I'm not as great as you." Zhou Wen's words were not sarcastic, but came from the heart.
Lucas knew it was impossible but he still did what he could. Although there was a small accident, that was not his intention.
"One day, you will surpass me." Lucas was full of confidence. He patted Zhou Wen on the shoulder and said, "Go and see your spoils. They are the reward you deserve and the medal of heroism."
Zhou Wen rolled his eyes in his heart. It was clearly about cutting flesh and digging for treasure, so why did it sound so righteous when it came out of Lucas' mouth?
Zhou Wen was not polite either. This was a mythical creature that he had risked his life to kill, so naturally he would not let it go.
Soon, Zhou Wen found a dimensional crystal in Medusa's body. There was also Medusa's light and shadow in the dimensional crystal, which was obviously a crystal of Yuan Qi.
"Old friend, you are so lucky to have obtained the crystallization of Medusa's vitality skill. Come, let me take a picture of you and upload it to the Internet together with the previous picture so that they can witness the heroic moment together." Lucas said as he was about to take a picture with his mobile phone.
"What did you say?" Zhou Wen quickly stopped Lucas and asked, staring at him.
"I said you should film it and upload it online. This is your heroic story," said Lucas.
"No, what do you mean by the photo just now?" Zhou Wen asked again.
"That's it. I just took a picture of you and uploaded it online. The response is very good. You will soon become a hero known to everyone..." Lucas opened his personal homepage and showed the photo to Zhou Wen as if to show off.
When Zhou Wen saw the number of replies below, he found that there were already more than 60,000 and it was still increasing. His face suddenly turned green.
"Hurry, delete the photos." Zhou Wen was really a little anxious.
Originally, the Supervisory Bureau and the six major families did not know that he had been promoted to the epic level. If they knew that he had been promoted to the epic level and had killed a dimensional creature like Medusa, they would be more cautious when sending people to cause trouble for him in the future, and the people they sent would be more powerful. Wouldn't this be asking for trouble?
"Why delete it? Isn't this good?" Lucas asked puzzledly.
"I don't want to be a hero, and I don't want to be famous. Lucas, you must not tell anyone about what happened today, and don't let others know that I killed Medusa, okay?" Zhou Wen also knew that it was useless to delete it now. This photo has probably been forwarded countless times.
He looked at the photo carefully and found that there was only a back figure. Moreover, because the Overlord Sword reflected the sunlight, the sword body was almost invisible. Even his back figure was affected by the light and shadow, so it should not be so easy to recognize.
"Although I don't know why you have such a strange request, as your friend, I respect your decision. Do you still want to delete this photo?" Lucas said.
"Forget it." Zhou Wen shook his head. Deleting it now would only make it more obvious.
Zhou Wen looked at Barbara again and asked, "Miss, can you help me keep this secret?"
"No." Barbara shook her head.
"Barbara, he is my friend..." Lucas said anxiously.
Barbara took out a notebook and pen from her bosom, handed them to Zhou Wen, blinked, and said, "If you want me to keep your secret, that's fine, but you have to sign it for me."
"Why do you want me to sign?" Zhou Wen frowned slightly.
He still remembered what happened to Yak very clearly and usually wouldn't sign easily.
"Silly boy, because you are her hero." Lucas patted Zhou Wen on the back and said with a laugh.
When Zhou Wen saw Barbara's face flushed, he realized that he had overthought.
"I can sign for you, but please don't tell anyone about this, okay?" Zhou Wen took the notebook and pen and signed his name on it.
"Okay." Barbara took the notebook, carefully looked at Zhou Wen's signature, then closed it with great care and held it in her arms, thinking happily, "Of course I'll keep it a secret for you. Only I know that you are the hero who killed Medusa, and only I have your signature. This hero and secret belongs to me alone."
"Do you want to go back with us?" Lucas asked Zhou Wen.
"If I go back with you, people will inevitably suspect me. You go back first." Zhou Wen didn't go back with them just because of this. He also wanted to go into the island again to see if the six-winged black dragon was dead.
If it dies, there might be crystals or something like that left behind. It would be even better if we could get a companion egg.
Even if there is nothing left, it would be nice to pick another golden apple.
However, Zhou Wen remembered that the golden apple had just grown out last time and had not yet grown up, so it was probably not ripe yet.
After Lucas and Barbara left, Zhou Wen entered the dimensional realm through the pool of water again and went to take a look at the apple tree. The golden apples had just grown out and were still far from ripe. Even if he picked them now, they would probably be of no use.
No trace of the six-winged black dragon was found on the island, so Zhou Wen came to the sea area where it had fought with Medusa. He summoned the silver water snake and asked it to go down and search to see if it could find anything.
