533 Buying Mt. Fuji? Levatin's forge workshop
After walking out of the toy store, the autumn wind blew, and Zero's head calmed down.
After reviewing her defeat just now, she quickly understood the key to Su Mo's persuasion.
The so-called facts are not immutable, people's subjective initiative itself can have a large enough impact on reality, she didn't take this into account before, and she was refuted by Su Mo with seemingly foul means.
If Lu Mingze is a person who can spy on fate, then Su Mo is a person who can rewrite fate.
And in fact, Su Mo's words are also very convincing, with his speed of becoming stronger, if there is no limit in the later stage, then he should not be afraid of Lu Mingze or the Black King in the future.
However, Su Mo should have intentionally or unintentionally ignored a key issue.
That is, great talent alone is not enough to solve the looming crisis at hand.
A genius who hasn't grown up is meaningless, and if Lu Mingze makes a move on him before he becomes stronger, it will still be a great crisis.
Thinking about it this way, Zero has no intention of repenting.
Now that you have accepted the bet, you are naturally willing to accept the loss.
Moreover, if Su Mo really had this kind of talent, it would be more effective to stay by his side and protect him than to leave Su Mo and just remind him of the crisis.
Well, that's the reason, it's definitely not because Su Mo insisted on not wanting her to leave so he softened his heart or anything......
"Su Mo, do you want to go back?"
After walking to the uninhabited alley, Zero stopped, looked around, and asked Su Mo.
Now that she has been defeated, she should obediently go back and continue to serve as the head maid and secretary.
ββ¦β¦ Well, if there's nothing else you want to go, go back. β
Su Mo wanted to say that half a day hadn't come yet, and he could play something else if he wanted to, but looking at Zero's eyes, he suddenly realized something, and suddenly showed a speechless expression.
"Then I'll go back first."
Zero nodded immediately, then spoke.
"Remember to come back before lunch, and by the way, be careful."
Obviously, the two of them came together, but she planned to go back alone, as if she had calculated that Su Mo would not be able to go back with her.
And at the end, she blinked, and her ice-blue pupils seemed to remind Su Mo not to forget her previous hints.
"Don't worry, I understand."
Su Mo nodded.
He's not some dull fool, so it's impossible not to be unaware of Zero's repeated hints.
What she was most worried about was Lu Mingze's backlash, although she didn't know what Lu Mingze said to her, she was definitely scared.
In fact, whether it is from the perspective of interests or the overall situation, Lu Mingze will not be against the water at this time, his dominance was strongest before Xia Mi was promoted to the God Domain, and now that the comparison of strength between the two sides is leveling or even surpassing, he may not have any chance to fight back.
However, after all, it was a reminder of zero, and Su Mo did not disdain it, but kept it in his heart.
The reality is not, many times there is no need to talk about logic, and there should still be precautions.
Seeing Su Mo's serious expression, Zero left with confidence.
And after the space door disappeared and Zero's back disappeared with it, Su Mo's voice sounded again in the empty alley.
"Don't hide, come out! I know you're here. β
The alley was silent, and no one answered.
"Even zero guessed it, what's the use of you covering your ears and stealing the bell like this? Do you really want me to call out your honorific name? β
Su Mo said helplessly.
Still no one responded.
"Then I shouted, the legendary metamorphosis and tail followed-uh-mmmmmm
In the middle of his words, his mouth was covered by a white palm, and a familiar figure appeared in front of him, glaring at him dissatisfied.
"Phew! I'm not a pervert and a tail king, I just happened to be passing by here! β
Not surprisingly, it's Natsumi.
Although I don't think it's too much, after all, it's a zero mother, but with her character, it's probably used to tracking.
"Yes, yes, yes! I happened to be passing by, and I happened to be by my side, and we happened to be together for more than an hour. β
Su Mo took Xia Mi's hand away and said funny.
"That's it, isn't it?"
Xia Mi, who couldn't argue, simply said directly.
"I didn't say no, Miss Kraft Candy!"
Su Mo pinched her face, but she didn't hold on to it, mainly because she definitely couldn't change this habit, and it was useless to say it.
Being ridiculed by Su Mo like this, Xia Mi was also a little embarrassed.
Her eyes purred, and she immediately hugged Su Mo's arm, half coquettish, half changing the topic.
"So, has Mother Zero's problem been solved?"
"Haven't you been watching this all the time, and you still need to ask me?"
Su Mo asked casually.
"I haven't been here all the time, I only came here halfway through your conversation!"
Natsumi shook her head and explained.
"But looking at Mother Zero's appearance, it seems that there is no problem, and you still have to go out to deceive Mother Zero!"
"What is called deception, I am using reasonable means to persuade her."
Su Mo immediately corrected her words, and then said.
"This time the basic problem is solved, and Zero should not be so worried that he wants to leave...... However, this level has not yet reached the result I wanted, and when Zero can take the initiative to say that she wants to stay, it can be regarded as completely solving her problem. β
This time, Zero was persuaded by Su Mo successfully, and on the whole, it was still very passive.
When Zero learns to express her emotions and really speak her mind, that's when she really comes out of the shadows of the past.
However, there is no need to rush at this point, after all, she has suppressed her temperament and lived as a tool for more than ten years, even now she has not taken her will as a starting point, and if she wants to learn to express her emotions, she still needs enough accumulation or stimulation, and she can't be in a hurry.
"Got it! When Mother Zero officially speaks, she will be able to completely transform into our shape! β
Miss Natsumi patted her head and let out such an exclamation.
ββ¦β¦ That's pretty much it. β
Su Mo nodded, looking at Xia Mi with a strange look in his eyes.
Although I don't think there's anything wrong with it, isn't your wording a little too unsophisticated?
Miss Xia Mi naturally ignored Su Mo's eyes and continued with an excited expression.
"It seems that Mother Zero doesn't have to worry about it. With me here, Mother Zero will definitely want to play with me, it's just a matter of time...... So what do we do after that? There's still half a morning! β
Hearing this, Su Mo couldn't help but reach out again and pinch Miss Xia Mi's tender face.
He was surprised in his heart, how thick must Miss Xia Mi's face be to have such confidence.
- Do you believe it or not, as long as you swear not to bully Mother Zero in the future, the time for zero to speak can be reduced by more than half?
It's a pity that this kind of talk is not useful to Miss Xia Mi, so Su Mo didn't bother to speak, but continued her words and asked.
"I didn't make a reservation after that, what, is there any place you want to go?"
"Well, of course!"
Miss Natsumi nodded with a pre-planned expression.
"Remember what I said earlier, I helped you solve the problem of the fire elemental field?"
"Yes."
Su Mo nodded.
The forging of the artifact Levatin requires an environment with sufficient fire element, and Xia Mi had said before that she had a way, but at that time, the priority was to deal with zero things.
Now that the zero thing has come to an end, Levatin's forging is naturally on the agenda.
"This is where I took you, Qiang Qiang Qiang! Surprised by this? β
In just the blink of an eye, the two of them didn't even move half a step, and Miss Natsumi activated the authority of Hela, the god of death, and carried out a spatial transfer.
One second, the two were still in the uninhabited alleys of Shinjuku Ward, and the next, they had arrived at the interior of Japan's most famous classic.
Looking at the lava slowly flowing under his feet and feeling the temperature suddenly rising around him, Su Mo instantly understood something.
"This is inside Mt. Fuji?"
"That's right!"
Miss Natsumi said with a smile.
Along with the cherry blossoms, Mt. Fuji is one of Japan's most recognizable cultural symbols, and many people know that Mt. Fuji is actually one of the largest active volcanoes in the world.
The exact eruption cycle of this volcano is not yet known, but what is known is that this active volcano has not erupted for more than 1,700 years, and it must have accumulated a lot of magma.
Magma comes from the upper mantle and deep in the earth's crust and is the embers of the planet, and its total weight is even large enough to cover the planet's surface.
The magma in Mt. Fuji is connected to the upper mantle and is constantly replenished.
In other words, if you collect fire here, the embers of the entire planet can be used as a material.
The richness of this fire element is not even worse than the Pacific Ocean connected to Tokyo Bay, and if it is used as a forging workshop, even forging LV7-level artifacts is more than enough.
In mythology, even the god of fire often used volcanoes as his forge, and this position in front of him really met Su Mo's needs.
Butβ
"Is it really good to forge here?"
Su Mo hesitated for a moment, and pretended to excuse himself.
"If it succeeds, it's okay to say, but if it fails, with the power of the artifact level, maybe it will cause Mt. Fuji to explode ahead of schedule, so that Japan will have a big problem, right?"
Although it will not sink Japan on land, once a volcano of this level erupts, it will also bring them great losses.
If Mt. Fuji erupts, the economic damage caused is nothing, and the most terrible thing is that it could destroy the foundation.
He can still control the power of ordinary natural disasters, but if it is an artifact explosion, even Xia Mi's current strength is difficult to control easily, and the final harm may really tear apart the most unstable foundation in Japan, and finally even cause the entire Japan to sink.
Su Mo is not stupid, naturally he would not have thought of the option of volcanoes, but he was worried about this before and felt that it was not appropriate, so he just wanted to listen to other people's opinions.
Now, it seems that there is no other choice.
Hearing Su Mo mention this matter, Xia Mi thought about it and said.
"Anyway, there is Odin in Japan now, natural disasters are inevitable, and there is nothing to have one more safety hazard, right?"
She said with a high-minded attitude that it was none of her business.
"Speaking of which, we forged Levatin to deal with Odin and help Japan get rid of the conspiracy of the Dragon King, so Japan should thank us, no matter what, we shouldn't be blamed, right?"
Speaking of the front, she was still a little weak-hearted, but when it came to the back, she gradually became stronger.
Although she has brought danger to Japan, it is also for the good of Japan, how can you blame her?
"You say thatβ"
Regarding Miss Xia Mi's irresponsible attitude, Su Mo said in a righteous tone.
"βYou seem to have some truth in saying that!"
He's not a pedantic man either, so he doesn't have to be foolproof to prepare.
Although it is a bit potentially dangerous to do so, their purpose is to solve the troubles of Odin and even the White King, and in general, the Japanese people are making money, and this risk is obviously not a problem.
There was no way to ask for everyone's consent for this kind of thing, so he could only tearfully make a decision for the Japanese people.
Hearing Su Mo's praise, Xia Mi squinted and smiled, and then said even more proudly.
"Of course! Moreover, from the very beginning I guessed the reason for your hesitation, after all, your biggest problem is that you are too reasonable like me. β
Probably the most unreasonable female dragon in the world said to Su Mo so conclusively.
Su Mo couldn't listen to it.
"So, in order to clear the procedural problem, I asked the potato chip girl to buy Mt. Fuji, which is now our private property! It doesn't matter how much you want to toss, even the prime minister is not qualified to say anything. β
It is very rare, Miss Xia Mi waved her hand, showing her heroic side.
"You bought Mt. Fuji?"
Even Su Mo was a little shocked.
Is this still the same Xia Mi who slammed the door?
He was not surprised by the purchase of Mt. Fuji itself, as the active volcano, which is a symbol of Japanese culture and one of the tourist attractions, is itself privately owned and leased to the government as a tourist attraction.
Since it is privately held, it is natural that ownership transactions can also be carried out, but this price is definitely not cheap.
"That's right!"
Miss Natsumi nodded.
"It's a pity that the sale and lease can't be broken, so we can only let this mountain continue to be an attraction, but I made a plan with Potato Chip Girl that when the contract expires, we will increase the price, which is a symbol of Japanese culture...... You have to add money to get in! β
"Moreover, in the future, all literary works or film and television works will have to charge additional royalties once they use the scenery of Mt. Fuji."
ββ¦β¦β
Su Mo was speechless for a moment.
Only then did he understand why Xia Mi was willing to pay this money, it turned out to be to make more, which was indeed in line with her style.
If it weren't for the fact that the concept of cherry blossoms couldn't be bought, she probably wanted all Japanese people to pay her before they enjoyed the cherry blossoms.
This is probably the vampire itself!
"You can be a man...... No, you're not human, so that's fine. β
Su Mo waved his hand, but he didn't intend to interfere with Miss Xia Mi's business.
Then, he looked at the magma below, and his eyes were full of the fire element, which could not be richer.
Since this is now his territory, the matter of forging Levatin should also be grasped.
Thinking so, he beckoned and transferred the seven deadly sins.
The blood of every king shall end with the sword.
