The walking dragon son

Chapter 156 Ciel’s Tips

Of course, Ciel didn't know how much Hephaestus expected of him, what he was thinking about doing right now.

Ciel pulled the backpack on one side and said to Hephaestus: "Since we have decided to hide the level temporarily, we can only ask God to help us deal with these things."

Hephaestus had long known that Ciel had gone directly to the lower level this time, so he also understood that he could not handle his spoils by himself.

It is unreasonable no matter how you think about it, for a LV1 adventurer to go to the gold exchange with a lot of LV3 and LV4 magic stones.

But even so, Hephaestus was still shocked at first glance, and then she keenly sensed something was wrong.

"You have too many materials to strengthen your species here! Why did you encounter so many rare monsters along the way?"

Charles replied: "Well... I forgot to mention that I met Jaru of the Rudra family on the 27th floor. These magic stones and dropped materials were left behind by the monsters he brought."

Hephaestus frowned and said, "Rudra Familia? Have you met the dark sect?"

Charles told Hephaestus how he met Jaru and everything that happened after that.

After listening to Ciel's narration, Hephaestus fell into deep thought. Since the rampage of <Hayte> Liu Liang five years ago, the dark faction has completely disappeared.

Hephaestus did not expect that the news about those madmen would come from Ciel again, and that they would appear in a place like the underground city.

Hephaestus keenly sensed something unusual.

She did not doubt what Ciel said. God always trusted her children.

And she also believed that even if it was Juluo, there would be no other consequences if he bumped into Ciel and attacked him.

What worries her is why Jaru appears in the dungeon.

As we all know, the only way to enter the dungeon is through the Tower of Babel, and the Tower of Babel is managed by the guild.

Since the "Nightmare on the 27th Floor" incident six years ago and the "Disaster Resurrection" five years ago, the guild has become more vigilant about dark factions entering the dungeon.

Because the former led to the death of a large number of elite adventurers, the latter led to the destruction of the Astraea Familia. The guild manages Orario's stability and cannot afford to suffer too many losses like this.

It stands to reason that it would be impossible for a famous member of the dark faction like Jaro to pass through the Tower of Babel.

And he will appear in the underground city, unless he has been living in the underground city for the past five years.

Although he could survive on a safe floor, Hephaestus knew the dark factions very well. How could this group of lunatics be hiding honestly? They must be planning some activities.

To complete an event will definitely require a lot of manpower and resources.

Even if they wanted to raise supplies, they couldn't stay in the underground city forever. On the one hand, it is difficult to hide, and on the other hand, they cannot advance their plans.

For a moment, Hephaestus felt that her thoughts were in a mess and she had no clue at all.

After hearing what Hephaestus said, Ciel understood what she was talking about, so he said, "Maybe there are other entrances to the dungeon!"

"Impossible!" Hephaestus looked at Ciel as soon as he finished speaking, and said doubtfully: "Didn't you discover something?"

Charles nodded and took out Jala's whip from his backpack.

"This is the magic tool held by Cha Luo. There are not many people in Orario who can make such a tool!
I heard that the descendants of Daedalus also possess [mystery]. "

Hephaestus's insight and wisdom are so outstanding, she connected everything together as soon as Ciel finished speaking.

Underground maze! This was the answer Hephaestus thought of after Ciel prompted her.

To be precise, the underground labyrinth should be called the man-made labyrinth Knoros.

Thousands of years ago, the gods came to the underworld, bestowed blessings on mankind, and built a miraculous building - the Tower of Babel. The person responsible for designing and building the Tower of Babel was Daedalus, a descendant of Uranus.

Not only the Tower of Babel, but also Orario's urban planning and sewer construction were designed by this master. Orario even has a maze-like Daedalus Street dedicated to the architect.

But the great master went mad because he saw the real miracle, which was the dungeon itself.

So Daedalus wanted to build a building similar to the underground city.

Because the structure of the underground city is conical, Daedalus's plan was to build a labyrinth like a lid that would be connected to the underground city to eliminate the floor restrictions of the underground city.

But unlike dungeons that can repair themselves, man-made structures will eventually collapse over time.

If you want to build a maze like a dungeon, you need to use a material with "indestructible" properties, which is Oliha steel.

This material has a very famous name in fantasy novels, and that is orichalcum, a precious metal of the same level as adamantine and mithril.

Ais' Sword of Despair is made of this material, and a thin sword is worth 9600 million mana.

And Daedalus planned to use this material to build a labyrinth, which is impossible when you think about it.

After Ciel gave the hint, Hephaestus also thought of the impossible man-made maze.

When Daedalus first proposed this plan, the gods also admired this grand plan, but at the same time they believed that this plan was impossible to realize.

If the Daedalus family has never given up on this plan, it will be impossible to complete Daedalus's original plan, but it is not impossible to connect the dungeon to form other exits.

However, Hephaestus knew that the descendant of Daedalus was the "Barbarian" of the Icarus Familia, so she really didn't know that he had [Mystery].

Of course, he didn't know that Ciel was talking about another person who was the last descendant of Daedalus, and he didn't know where Ciel got the information. However, mortals cannot lie in front of gods, and she also believes in the accuracy of Ciel's information.

But there was no difference, and Hephaestus couldn't help but start to doubt Icarus' position.

As mentioned before, the main gods of the dark factions are not all evil gods, and Ikaros's behavior is quite suspicious.

The dark faction has no channels to raise funds, so it must be colluding with some family members or chambers of commerce.

The Ikaros Familia is probably one of them. A family that wants to manipulate illegal business, such as the Istar Familia of Fengyue Street, is also involved.

When you think about it, what is hidden becomes more complicated.

Hephaestus sighed. It is clear that the job of the Hephaestus Familia is only to create equipment for adventurers, why are they involved in such trouble!

Glancing at Ciel, Hephaestus knew that it was not his fault.

Do you want to pretend that nothing happened? That way there won't be too much trouble.

But Hephaestus couldn't sit idly by when she thought about what the dark faction might do.

Thinking of this, Hephaestus stood up directly and said: "This matter is not a headache for us in the first place, let's leave it to the people who should have a headache to deal with it!
Leave the rest of the matter to me to negotiate with the other families, and you can prepare for the workshop honestly.

By the way, your dagger and scimitar have been sold. You sort out the things you want to sell, and I will ask other members of the family to help you get them to the money exchange. We will hand over the money to you when the time comes. "

After saying that, Hephaestus turned around and left, seemingly planning to discuss the matter with other gods.

Ciel had no objection to Hephaestus's decision. This god really arranged everything thoughtfully.

Ciel simply tidied it up, and then began to perfect the drawings of his forging workshop on the desk.

From the looks of it, he didn't take it to heart at all that he had revealed the existence of the dark sect and defrauded the Icarus family.
