157 Hephaestus, the god of fire
The underworld, that is the place where the souls of the undead return, most people enter the underworld after death, as for whether to be punished in the underworld or directly enter the reincarnation cycle, this kind of thing is up to the king of the underworld to decide, it can be said that the king of the underworld controls everything in the underworld.
"This is the underworld!?" The bright red sky was like a burning cloud, and Kurumi dragged Chiba Lin's body to climb ashore from the Styx, and looked back at the sea of blood surging with blood-colored heads, she only felt that her scalp was numb for a while, if it wasn't for drinking the medicine made by Chen Yaming before coming to the underworld, then she and Chiba Lin were likely to have been pulled to the deepest part by the resentful spirits in the sea of blood.
"Thank you." Finally climbed ashore, Chiba Lin lay on the ground with her back to the sky and gasped hard, in that sea of blood, she only felt that her body was abnormally heavy, if it wasn't for the help of Kurumi, she would probably sink due to exhaustion.
"It's okay, but your physique is really bad." Kurumi, who was sitting on the ground resting, glanced at Chiba Lin who was lying beside him, shook his head and replied softly.
Chiba Rin wasn't the type to like exercising, but now that she becomes a girl, she is even more lazy and reluctant to move, and she feels more tired when she runs.
"Hehe~" Chiba Lin smiled embarrassedly at Kurumi's words.
"We don't have much time, you try to rest as quickly as possible, let's go find the other side flower together!" Kurumi urged.
"It's the first time I've heard that you can rest faster." Chiba Lin rolled her eyes and whispered.
Chen Yaming's medicine doesn't know what material she is made of, it can give people half an hour to enter the underworld, and it can also make the resentful spirits in the sea of blood afraid to approach, but the time limit of half an hour also means that Chiba Lin and Kurumi must pick the flowers on the other side within half an hour.
The flower only grows in the underworld, but the two of them don't know where it grows in the underworld, which means that they want to find the flower in half an hour. Luck is an essential ingredient in this.
"You say...... What if that guy wakes up and forgets everything? Chiba Rin, who felt that she had rested, followed Kurumi to the depths of the underworld, and on the way she didn't forget to ask about one thing she cared about very much.
"What should I do, can't I just make him like him again?" Kurumi replied as a matter of course, and this attitude made Chiba Lin stunned.
"And don't you think it's nice that he's lost his memory? In this way, he won't remember his fiancée named Shen Xiaowei on the earth, and then I can be his main palace~ Hahaha! At the end, Kurumi actually let out a heartbroken laugh.
"But the one named Chen Yaming said, even if that guy really woke up, but his right hand was cut off and he was blind, no matter how you look at it, he is already a waste. Why do you like this kind of waste person so much? Chiba Rin said a little bothered, but the moment she finished speaking, a cold object reached from her side and pressed against her temple.
"If you dare to say such things to me again, believe it or not, I want your head to bloom?" Kurumi's tone became indifferent, making Chiba Rin suspect that if she really repeated what she had just said, the other party might really shoot her in the temple.
"Don't get so excited! Impulse is the devil! The antique pistol on the temple made Chiba Lin only feel that cold sweat was secreting on his forehead, and he whispered to Kurumi in a slightly calm tone.
Probably because Long Xiangtian and Yang Weiwei had a quarrel in the underworld last time, this time Kurumi and Chiba Lin came to the black river smoothly. This river is the real Styx in the underworld, and everything here seems to merge with the darkness without a trace of light in the sky.
"I always feel like the air here makes my body a little heavy." Chiba Lin frowned slightly and said.
The two of them were in trouble when they came to the Black Styx. Not knowing how to cross the River Styx, Kurumi also tried to pick up a withered leaf from the ground and throw it into the River Styx, and the dead leaf sank directly into the River Styx, as she expected. This also means that the river is not buoyant, and it is impossible for the two of them to swim across it.
"Is there anything you can do?" Kurumi asked Chiba Rin beside him.
"I'll give it a try." There is a forbidden space here, which means that no living thing can fly in the air. This made Chiba Lin, who originally wanted to summon the blue-eyed white dragon to fly over with them, but she could only dispel this idea, so now she was going to summon another monster.
"Come out, legendary fisherman!" With the shouting of Chiba Lin holding up the card in her hand, a figure flashed out of thin air above her head, it was a tall figure that was shirtless and riding a creature that looked like a shark under her, and then I saw this tall figure riding a shark fall into the River Styx, and then ...... Never floated up again!
"I'm sorry." Seeing that the legendary fisherman she summoned fell into the River Styx and never resurfaced, Chiba Rin scratched her head a little in embarrassment, she knew that her second plan seemed to have failed.
"Then what should we do, time is running out!" The fact that they would return to their bodies when the effects of the medicine were over and that they would return empty-handed before they could pick the flowers made Kurumi feel unacceptable.
"Humans, why are there humans here!?" Just as Kurumi and Chiba Rin were annoyed about how to cross the River Styx, the male who suddenly sounded looked at the location where the sound came from in surprise.
With fiery red medium-long hair, a stubble on the chin but it makes people feel ruined and decadent, this is a middle-aged mature uncle with a handsome face, after seeing this person, he said politely: "We are here to pick some flowers from the other side to save people, I don't know if you know where the flowers grow on the other side." ”
"The other side of the flower? There are these flowers growing in the back garden of the Hades Temple, so it doesn't matter if you take them there, but can you tell me how you got to the underworld? ”
The fiery uncle didn't wait for the mad three to reply, and said to himself heartily: "Forget to introduce yourself, some people may know my name, and some people may not know, I am the god of forging in the divine realm, the god of fire Hephaestus!" ”
"Hephaestus, the god of fire!?" Kurumi and Chiba Rin glanced at each other in surprise, the two who knew a little about Greek mythology would not be unfamiliar with this name, but in the impression of the two of them, Hephaestus, the god of fire in Greek mythology, was an extremely ugly man, and what was in front of him was handsome and mature.
Moreover, the wife of Hephaestus, the god of fire, was also Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty in Greek mythology, the ugliest man in Olympus and the most beautiful woman...... That head must be green and shiny. (To be continued......)
