Skill extraction starting from Dragon Clan

At night, Zheng Shu lay on the ground in a daze.

He is now in a room on the second floor of the tavern, but because he is too big, there is no bed suitable for him to lie down in the tavern, so the waiter simply helped Zheng Shu move the bed out of the room and spread it on the floor for him. A thick blanket was laid on the floor.

It would take some time for Hercules to arrive here, so Zheng Shu simply stayed in this tavern.

Of course, in addition to the good food here, another important reason for choosing to stay in a tavern is the owner.

"Are all the gods in ancient Greece so idle? Even the staff in this tavern are demigods." Zheng Shu recalled what he saw today and could only sigh that the world is full of wonders.

As soon as he entered the door of the tavern, he noticed that if the other guests in the tavern were surprised by his size, then the bartender and waiters in the tavern were all amazed by his appearance.

Being able to see Zheng Shu's true appearance showed that the concentration of divine blood in the staff here was much higher than that of most of the heroes he met.

And although the owner of the tavern has not been seen, judging from the residual divine power in the tavern, he should also be a god from the underworld.

Of course, although the staff in the tavern can be regarded as divine blood heroes, their strength can only be regarded as quite average from Zheng Shu's current perspective.

After all, if Zheng Shu exerts all his power, except for the twelve main gods of Olympus, there are not many gods in the entire ancient Greece who can defeat Zheng Shu.

To put it bluntly, according to Zheng Shu's estimation of his current strength, even if the owner of the tavern really confronts him, he can still suppress him.

However... he is a god of the underworld, and he often lives in the city of Thenaron. There is only one god that Zheng Shu can think of: Hermes, the god who guides the undead.

He was also the god who helped Hercules enter the hell passage of Thenaron and guided him.

Thinking of this information, Zheng Shu simply stayed in this hotel. With this god around, Zheng Shu only needs to keep an eye on the whereabouts of the tavern owner and doesn't have to worry about Hercules missing him after he comes to the city.

…

…

"Brother Zheng Shu, I heard that Hercules is coming to our city soon!" On this day, the drunken drunkard drank all the wine in his mouth as usual, then lay on the table and shared his wine with the customers around him. knowledge.

"I haven't heard from him for such a long time. I thought that Hercules was scared, but I didn't expect that he would dare to come here."

"If you think about it, you will know that the entrance to hell in our city is the most famous. If you want to enter hell alive, you must enter from here. But will the adults guarding the temple really allow him to enter? Didn't they say they wanted to build a temple? Is the purpose to strictly prohibit anyone from entering hell?"

"He is a famous hero, so he must be different from drunkards like us..."

The tavern was filled with noisy sounds, as this group of drunkards who drank several drinks even during the day discussed this exciting event.

After all, there was no relatively convenient information dissemination system in ancient Greece. In addition to drinking, ordinary people basically lived by eating melon in their free time.

During the discussion, some people even put down their wine glasses one after another and rushed out of the city. After all, if they could really see the face of the great hero, they would have bragging rights for the next six months.

Zheng Shu did not follow the crowd to the city gate, because he sensed that the owner of the tavern had been staying in the tavern and had not left since just now. This was very unusual for this god who often only left his breath but never saw his figure. the behavior of.

Sure enough, after the people in the tavern were almost gone, the waiter who had been smiling sweetly suddenly closed the door of the tavern with a solemn face, and then the three demigods in the tavern, including the chef, all stood respectfully and seemed to be watching. What awaits.

At this time, Zheng Shu stood up slowly and straightened his clothes to show respect for the god who protects the city.

While Zheng Shu was arranging his clothes, a thin-looking figure slowly walked out of the kitchen.

The aura on the opponent's body was not as powerful as the main gods Zheng Shu had seen before. It could even be said to be very inconspicuous. If it weren't for the aura he felt from his body being the same as before, Zheng Shu wouldn't even be sure. Bit is a god.

However, the divine aura in his body that seemed to want to put all things into eternal sleep allowed Zheng Shu to clarify his identity: Hermes.

Hermes, the god of guidance of the undead, is a god who specializes in guiding the undead to hell. In a sense, it is very consistent with his priesthood that he has been staying here.

After all, there was no concept of reincarnation in the Age of Gods. Transferring the undead to hell was done simply to maintain order in the human world, so the passage to hell in Thenaron City was not a natural landscape.

From the perspective of gods, this passage can even be called the "official" passage from the human world to hell.

Another duty of Hermes, who guides the undead to hell, is to guard this place.

"Benevolent Demon King Zheng Shu, I have heard of your reputation for kindness, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful." Hermes. He nodded towards Zheng Shu very gently, looking like an ordinary old man.

Zheng Shu's face darkened when he heard Hermes calling him the first name, but he stretched out his hand to avoid hitting the smiling man, so he could only nod helplessly: "You must be the god Hermes, isn't it true? To tell you the truth, I came here this time to be able to go to hell through that passage."

"Is that so? I'm sorry. Generally speaking, my mission is to prevent the living from going to hell. Only the undead can go to hell..." Before Hermes could finish his words, he saw Zheng Shu scratching his head seemingly inadvertently. Stroke your hair.

However, in the process of stroking his hair, the muscles of Zheng Shu's arms suddenly became abnormally swollen for some reason, and the magic power inside his body began to surge, shrouding the entire tavern in a strong sense of oppression.

Muscles like steel bars kept rolling on his arms, looking like they could kill a god with one punch.

So Hermes changed his words very wisely and continued: "... Of course, heroes like you naturally have special privileges. After all, I also admire you very much. But I want to remind you that the erosion of hell will not care. Your identity, if you are not careful, may even remain there forever due to the erosion of the breath of hell."

Zheng Shu nodded with satisfaction at Hermes' knowledge: "So, is Lord Hermes going to find Hercules now?"

"Yes, I like heroes like Hercules very much. After all, his bravery has spread throughout all city-states. Presumably his soul will be as dazzling as his bravery." Hermes smiled dryly. .

Now he dare not say that he appeared before to give Hercules a showdown. After all, even Zheng Shu, who is not known for his strength, has such power. Heracles, who is known for his bravery, may Even more terrifying.

It was a trivial matter for them to go to hell. Anyway, in a period like the Age of Gods, it was not particularly uncommon for living people to sneak into hell. After all, there were only one or two living creatures in hell.

If he was accidentally beaten because he didn't agree with the other party's wishes, as a god who would not die, Hermes would really die from a social level.

"Are all human heroes today strong enough to reach this level?" Because he fell into serious self-doubt, Hermes did not dare to show off any more, and very quickly led Zheng Shu to Hercules who was heading to the city. .

"Ah...Brother Zheng Shu?!" Hercules' surprised voice came over as soon as they met.

Although Zheng Shu's appearance has changed a lot in such a long time, Heracross has already remembered Zheng Shu's aura. After all, for him, it was the first time since he was a child that he encountered a powerful enemy who could compete with him.

Therefore, after seeing Zheng Shu falling from the sky, Heracles was just stunned for a moment before recalling this friend he met in Nemea.

"Hercules, long time no see. It seems you have become a lot stronger." Zheng Shu also greeted with a smile.

None of his words were compliments. The moment he saw Hercules, Zheng Shu couldn't even believe his eyes. If it weren't for the fact that Hercules' appearance wouldn't change at will, he wouldn't dare to believe it. recognize.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of strength alone, Zheng Shu was able to ensure that his hard power should be on par with Hercules when he parted ways with Hercules.

After undergoing arduous training by Chiron and obtaining the divine weapons made by Hephaestus, Zheng Shu met Heracles again but felt a terrifying sense of oppression.

Before the opponent's strength improved far beyond Zheng Shu's imagination, he also speculated that Heracles, who had completed the twelve trials, might have just touched the edge of Olympus' main god level strength.

But now it seems that if he is really allowed to complete the twelfth trial, Heracross's strength will be considered outstanding even among the main gods.

this……

Can simply completing some trials really increase an individual's strength to this level? Zheng Shu would not believe such nonsense.

To put it bluntly, if every time you complete a trial, you can get such a large increase in strength, then there will already be people rushing to complete these trials.

In addition to the changes in strength, the biggest shock Heracross brought to Zheng Shu was probably the divinity in him.

Zheng Shu was certain that when he met Hercules before, there was no divinity in his body at all.

And now when they meet again, Heracross's divine intensity has even surpassed that of ordinary gods, reaching a level close to the twelve main gods of Olympus.

According to speculation, if Heracles completes all the trials, his divine strength will directly surpass all ordinary gods and reach the level of the main god. Such a growth rate almost makes Zheng Shu think that Hercules himself has Goldfinger has been strengthened.

"Hahahaha, I also found that I have become stronger, but I don't know why. I just keep getting stronger inexplicably." Hercules smiled generously, but the words he said made people think He wanted to beat him up, "By the way, the god next to you is that adult."

"This is Hermes, the god of guidance of the undead. The reason why he came to see you this time is to help you enter hell through the passage next to the city." Zheng Shu took the initiative to introduce it to Hercules. one time.

Hermes also glanced at Zheng Shu vaguely, his eyes full of gratitude, because although Zheng Shu's statement made him seem a bit dishonest, at least it allowed him to save his face as a god.

After meeting with Hercules, Hermes couldn't help but sweat when he thought of his previous thoughts. He actually wanted to teach a strong man of this level.

Although Hercules' overall strength is still a little behind that of the main god, it is not something that an ordinary god like him can afford to offend.

Of course, in order to maintain his image on the surface, Hermes still had to maintain his mysterious posture: "I have heard about your achievements and appreciate your power very much, so I am willing to help you...Three Heads The Dog is located at the mouth of the River Styx, and living beings can only reach it through the capital of Lord Hades. And if you have no one to guide you, you will be lost in the endless fog of hell."

"Thank you very much for your help." Hercules saluted Hermes respectfully, not looking down on the god because he was stronger than the other person.

Hermes looked at Hercules in surprise, and suddenly turned to look at Zheng Shu next to him with an inexplicable smile on his face: "I didn't expect that Chiron could train his students so well. Seeing you, I even have the urge to throw my child to Chiron and entrust him to help teach me."

"Oh?" Hercules' eyes suddenly lit up and he looked at Zheng Shu, "Brother Zheng Shu, have you also become the teacher's student?"

"Yeah, maybe it's more appropriate for me to call you senior brother now." Zheng Shu did not deny it.

"Hahahaha! That's great! We must have a good drink!" Hercules laughed happily. It seemed that he was very happy that Zheng Shu, a good friend who suited his temperament very well, could become a classmate.

Unfortunately, Hercules' plan to get Zheng Shu drunk failed, because Hermes took the two of them directly to the edge of the passage to hell.
