Chapter 147: Thorn
A demigod is a very awkward identity.
When people talk about demigods, the first thing they often talk about is which elder of the demigod is which god, what kind of power this god governs, how powerful it is, and even the daily gossip of this god will be ranked in front of the name of the demigod. This gave these demigods an unbearable embarrassment, as if their existence was all to prove the power of their parents or mothers, and their fame and power were only embellishments in the lives of their elders.
Even Hogg couldn't escape such a view. The first thing people think of when they talk about Hogg is not how many good things Hogg has done, what familiar deeds he has, whether there are any anecdotes that people talk about. People tend to say, "Ah, I know, his mother was the goddess of the dawn." The goddess of dawn has done gossip like "......", and this gossip hurts Hogg more than rude expletives.
Until the end, they would say that this guy was the son of the goddess of the dawn.
This is something that all demigods have to face, and no one can avoid it, even the demigod Hagrid in the mountain of the gods has to bear such a heavy burden and pressure.
Because they are doing well, that's how they should be, who let them have a strong and authoritative god parents? If they don't do well, it's their own fault, they obviously have superhuman status and status, but they can't even do some things that mortals can do well, it's a shame for his parents.
Growing up in this environment, many demigods are reluctant to come into contact with ordinary people and keep a certain distance, hello and me.
Michael's toast surprised Hogg a little, but he drank it all in a face-saving way, and in his opinion, Michael was different from mortals. He has powers, he is powerful and mysterious, and in a way, the two are basically the same.
A glass of wine is not intoxicating, but Michael's faint warmth and understanding look made Hogg a little smoky.
He poured another glass of wine for his rare possession, and drank it again in one fell swoop.
Tostai glanced at the two of them, surprised and a little dissatisfied at the same time. Just now he asked Hogg to drink, Hogg only took a sip, but at this time he took the initiative to drink with Michael Ox, which made him feel a little unhappy. But there is no other idea, Hogg is a demigod after all, and there is a god's mother on it, no matter how dissatisfied he is with Hogg's attitude, he can only hide it in his heart.
See, that's why demigods hate ordinary people, because they never really take demigods to heart, and the first thing that comes to mind is the demigods' parents.
The stiff-faced reluctant to drink also began to drink, and the atmosphere of the banquet became more enthusiastic, and the slaves sent by the rich families in the city made the soldiers even more happy.
After three days of fun, Tostey finally ordered the reluctant team to continue the journey. During this period, news came that the gods of Jerut had achieved certain successes, and that the gods of Jetel had fallen nearly halfway. Although it is not clear why the onlookers have not yet made a move, this does not hinder Tostoy's determination to speed up the march.
He wants to conquer the royal capital before the gods annihilate the Jetel god system.
Michael had already gained Hogg's favor, and the two often interacted with each other, even during the march, Michael would approach Hogg's carriage and communicate through the carriage. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the two have become friends.
Since you are friends, some invitations that are not too excessive will not be rejected.
Seeing that he had reached the periphery of Jettle's defensive circle, Toste arranged the combat objectives of each legion, among which he transferred the Knights of the Holy Light to form a Sharp Knife Force. I don't know how Michael persuaded Tostair, Rossi actually led a legion of 10,000 people to clean up the outer perimeter of the Knights of Light. Together with Michael's invitation, Hogg agreed to the invitation to watch how Michael conquered the enemy, and by the way, to sweep the battle for Michael.
The 20,000-strong team left the Chinese army in a mighty way, and Michael's palms were faintly slippery. He was far less calm than he seemed on the surface, because he knew very well that the main goal of this battle was not to destroy the mission assigned to him by Tostai, but to help Rosie take out Hogg.
Hogg's main god has disappeared, which is a terrible threat, and Rossi promises a way to lure the main god away, but Michael is still ready.
"Lord, I think it's a bit too risky to go out with the army this time and break away from the Chinese army. The voice of Kiret sounded in Hogg's ears, and Kiret was the thug found by the Goddess of Dawn and was solely responsible for Hogg's safety.
Hogg smiled and shook his head, "You may not know much about Captain Michael's combat strength, but I know it very well. To exaggerate a little, even if I face Captain Michael, I don't dare to say that I will win easily when I am in full firepower, not to mention that we are only facing some ordinary people from Jettel? Even if they can mobilize some heroic demigods, I believe that the Knights of Light can easily destroy them.
You know, they've already eliminated no less than ten heroes and several demigods, and Captain Michael has a lot of experience in dealing with these people!"
Kilie couldn't persuade him, he knew the character of the Goddess of Dawn very well, as long as Hogg crooked his mouth, the Goddess of Dawn would take him out of anger on Hogg. Don't look at what the Dawning Girl said is good, she wants Kiyeol to let go of her courage to do things, but she really let go of her courage and offended Hogg, and the Goddess of Dawn will definitely turn her face and deny people. This mad dog turns his face faster than he can turn a book, one second he is gentle and polite, and the next second he can flip the table and hit someone.
However, he actually didn't have much burden in his heart, and the advantage gap between a main god and mortals was no longer something that could be made up by quantity. As long as the opponent does not appear at the level of the main god, as many mortals come, he can destroy as many mortals as he wants.
After two days of marching, it was already evening, and the whole army began to bury the pot and cook. Hogg also came out of the carriage and took a breath. His friendship with Michael grew stronger, and Michael was very understanding and a good listener, making him a very good person to talk to. For Michael, Hogg couldn't raise the slightest sense of defense.
He wandered around the carriage for a while, and Kilie suddenly issued an alert, "I noticed a faint fluctuation of divine source power, and there is a strange main god nearby who is spying on, Lord, you are on guard, I will go and see the situation first." ”
According to Rossi's deployment, Kulius deliberately approached the camp, and did not restrain the fluctuation of the divine source power in his body, so that Kiri found him at once. His goal is to lure Kireol away, free up time and opportunity for Rossi to act.
The carriage shook slightly, and a figure instantly soared into the sky and disappeared. Hogg frowned slightly, and returned to the carriage. The carriage looked very luxurious, and the interior facilities were extremely extravagant, and most people thought that it was a carriage built by the goddess of dawn for Hogg's enjoyment. In fact, this carriage is the chariot used by the god of war, and it was snatched by the goddess of dawn and used as a chauffeur for Hogg.
Sitting in the carriage, with the sturdiness of the carriage, it can resist at least three attacks of the Lord God level, which is enough for Hogg to have time to escape and call for help.
At this time, Rosie suddenly rode over, "Lord Hogg, was that just now?"
Kiyeol didn't hide his figure when he left, most people could see it clearly, and it was only natural for Rosie to ask.
"No fuss, just do your thing. Hogg replied lightly, he didn't like Rosie, not that he had any opinions about Rosie, but that he didn't like all ordinary people.
Rosie asked, "Would you like to come out for a bite to eat?" We made some roast meat and cooked some wheat. ”
"No need!"
"What about the water? Would you like some water? Or some wine?"
Hogg's heart suddenly became irritable, everyone who is capable has a strong desire for control, these control desires are obvious or not, but they all have the same performance, that is, they want everyone to act according to their own will. He was patient again and again, and tried to send Rosie away in a tough and even weak tone, but Rosie was entangled, making him feel disobedient.
He immediately lifted the curtain on the car window, revealing half of his body, and looked at Rosie coldly, "I said I don't have to!"
Rosie smiled slightly, the white light in his hand suddenly exploded, and he picked up a pure white spear and stabbed at Hogg.
