Wa Yu Tang Xia
Chapter 253 Lin En, Who Ran to the Underground Cave, Discovered Something Was Wrong
Demeter looked at Lynn, who had suddenly appeared, and said with a grin, "It hasn't been that long. Only, like, the last couple of months."
Lynn was shocked. No way! The last couple of months? He didn't feel like he had been in the Tower of God for that long. At most, maybe half a month?
Could it be? Could it be that I slept for more than half a month? Lynn shook his head. While it wasn't impossible, he didn't believe it.
Looking at Demeter's sly smile, Lynn had reason to suspect that she was tricking him.
Lynn immediately said calmly, "Okay, if it was the last couple of months, then it was the last couple of months. So, Demeter, how did your mission go?"
"How many people, uh, gods are willing to come over?"
Lynn asked Demeter.
Seeing Lynn's calm demeanor, Demeter was a little dejected. Unable to startle him as she had hoped, Demeter could only give a rough estimate of the numbers.
Lynn stroked his chin and said, "Not bad. You actually managed to pull over more than two thousand gods? Not bad, Demeter. Impressive."
Lynn: ୧(๑•̀◡•́๑)૭
Demeter scoffed, but the corners of her mouth still turned up slightly, and she seemed to be in a good mood.
Hildred looked at the two of them and shook her head. "Alright, don't just stand there. Let's go sit over there."
Seeing the four of them approaching, the demon girl Xiaona quickly prepared Hildred's favorite drink, and then a random concoction for Lynn. As for Demeter and the new god, she made a popular signature cocktail for them, with a lower alcohol content, of course.
Hildred looked at the drinks on the bar. She knew who had made them without even having to guess. After nodding to Xiaona, she picked up her favorite drink.
Looking at his perfunctory drink, Lynn glanced at the demon girl Xiaona. However, Xiaona didn't even look at Lynn, and instead stared at Hildred with an excited and infatuated expression.
...
Lynn: "Aunt, what are we doing now?"
Hildred: "Nothing much. Things are starting to get on track, so you need to know which direction we should head in next, right?"
Lynn nodded knowingly. "You tell me. I'm all ears."
As time passed, they began to talk more and more. Of course, it was mainly Hildred and Isisfil who were talking, while Lynn and Demeter looked completely lost.
Lynn and Demeter exchanged a look. They recognized all the individual words, but when strung together, they didn't understand a thing.
Anyway, Lynn knew that for now, he should just maintain the status quo. As for the rest, he would have to wait.
Putting everything else aside, the demon world was still a bit weak at the moment. There were only three main gods, a hundred or so upper-level gods, and the rest were just mid- and lower-level gods.
After all, when Demeter was recruiting in the Pantheon, the old gods of the original world would definitely notice. A comparison would reveal that their world had been restored, and they would definitely rush back.
Of course, if they wanted to come over, they would first have to find Lynn, since the world was now running with Lynn.
However, Lynn already had the strength of an upper-level god, so he didn't need to worry too much, except for the existence of the main gods.
What he feared was those old gods pulling some underhanded tricks. After all, those old schemers had lived for so many years, and couldn't be compared to a kid like Lynn in his twenties.
Lynn rolled his eyes when he heard that, but he had to admit that he was just an ordinary person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have spent a year hauling bricks.
Although he was an undocumented immigrant, the ID he brought over couldn't be used, but at least it looked real. In that case, there were plenty of methods for those smart people, right?
After drinking his nth glass of wine, his aunt and Isisfil finally finished their discussion, and the general direction was set.
The main thing was to take advantage of the special characteristics of the demon world. Putting everything else aside, the effects of the demon world's special buildings were very powerful, and could quickly cultivate a batch of mid- and low-level demon gods.
...
Alright, now that the work discussion was over, Isisfil immediately turned her attention to Lynn. She had researched a lot of information about laws yesterday, but none of those laws matched up. The only law that was somewhat similar was the Law of Creation, but even then, it was only somewhat similar.
This immediately attracted her attention perfectly. A completely new law, not something similar to existing laws. It was simply too wonderful.
Lynn felt goosebumps rising as he looked at Isisfil's gaze. Looking at those glittering eyes, he felt screwed. That look of interest...
Lynn knew that with such a high-IQ goddess, he could be completely played like a fiddle. It looked like his only option was to retreat using the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
Lynn immediately jumped up. Amidst the bewildered gazes of the others, he dashed off with a whoosh, leaving behind several dumbfounded goddesses.
After leaving the bar, Lynn immediately ran towards the dungeon.
...
After putting away his home, Lynn finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was really a bit scary. That gaze felt like she was going to dissect him.
Looking at his ten excavation attempts, Lynn was just about to start when he suddenly noticed some strange lines on the stone wall. They were dense and covered the entire stone wall.
Lynn looked at the other stone walls in confusion, and discovered that the stone walls were also covered in lines. Strange, what were these things?
Filled with curiosity, Lynn began to ask.
----------------------------
Lynn: "Hey guys? I see that you all seem to be covered in... lines?"
Bottom Stone Wall: "??? What the heck? What lines?"
Seeing the bottom stone wall reply, Lynn subconsciously looked at the bottom stone wall. As a result, he discovered that the bottom stone wall had the most lines on it.
This was getting stranger and stranger. What was going on? Lynn looked at the chat box and waited.
Top Stone Wall: "I didn't expect you to be able to see the black lines on our bodies? It seems that you are at least a mid-level god or higher."
East Stone Wall: "Woah, really? An upper-level god? What are you doing in the dungeon right now? You know, the dungeon rarely has items that upper-level gods can use."
Lynn: "...Those special secret realms and such, the rewards are still pretty good, right?"
East Stone Wall: "Difficult. As an upper-level god, you're basically just sweeping through secret realms, so you can't get treasure chests."
"Right now, you just need to comprehend laws, and strive to comprehend the laws to 100%. Then you can transform the laws into divine power."
Lynn: "??? How do you know so much? And also, what's the deal with the black lines on your bodies?"
