American Comic Dimensional Trading Device

Otherwise, based on Hilda's previous performance, the other party might not have any intention of making a deal, and Josie would get nothing.

Furthermore, after learning that this was the world of Saint Seiya, Josie had an idea: if she could achieve her goal...

"What do you want?" Hilda understood that Josie was the type to not act until she saw the benefit, so she sighed and asked.

"The forging technology of the Saint Cloth and the method of cultivating the Cosmo!" Josie stated directly.

“Yes! As long as you can help me out of this predicament, I will gladly offer it!” Hilda immediately nodded in agreement.

The techniques for forging Saint Cloths and the methods for cultivating Cosmo are not secrets in the Saint Seiya world; any god or their representative could create them.

However, the strength of a Saint Cloth does not depend entirely on its material and forging method, but on the constellation that corresponds to it and the user's cosmos!

And the Cosmos is even more demanding; it requires extremely high talent from the cultivator and also needs to be matched with the Saint Cloth.

Without a sixth sense, you're just cannon fodder.

Humans who can cultivate to the level of a sixth sense or higher are less than one in ten million.

Not to mention the Seventh Sense; all the gods combined don't even have more than three digits.

Therefore, Hilda wasn't very concerned about the leakage of these two things.

But as soon as Hilda finished speaking, she saw Josie looking at her with the kind of look that suggested she was mentally challenged.

"Is there a problem?" Hilda asked, puzzled.

“Of course there’s a problem! What do you mean I’ll help you out of this predicament and you’ll automatically give it to me? Who knows if you’ll keep your promise after you’re out of this predicament? Even if you do keep your promise and give me the things, how can I guarantee that what you give me is genuine?” Josie retorted.

"...You've been too lenient. As Odin's representative, how could I possibly lie about such a matter!" Hilda's expression darkened upon hearing Josie's words. "If you're truly uneasy, I can swear an oath in the name of Odin!"

This is a questioning of her credibility.

As the queen who has protected Asgard for so many years, when has she ever been questioned and insulted like this?

“I’m sorry, before I met you, I had already established contact with countless universes and seen far too many cunning individuals, including various gods, so there’s no need for oaths. Tell me first about the methods for forging the Saint Cloth and cultivating the Cosmo. After I verify their effectiveness, I will naturally find a way to help you out of this predicament!” Josie shook her head and said, “Don’t tell me you don’t know them. As Odin’s representative on Earth, you couldn’t possibly know about these two technologies!”

"...Then how can you guarantee you won't break the contract?" Hilda asked with a deep expression.

"Do you have a choice?" Josie said dismissively.

Hilda was speechless. That's right, she was the one who needed something now. Not knowing that Poseidon was destined to fail, she naturally wanted to get out of trouble as soon as possible.

“Alright, I’ll tell you! I hope you’ll keep your promise!” After a moment’s hesitation, Hilda had no choice but to agree.

She then carefully explained the two techniques to Josie, word by word.

"Very good. After I verify them, I will arrange to help you get out of trouble immediately!" After memorizing the two techniques, Josie nodded in satisfaction.

"Please hurry, Your Excellency! Once Asgard and Sanctuary go to war, who knows what terrible consequences it will bring!" During the conversation between Josie and Hilda, Hilda's evil personality had already issued the order to summon the God Warriors and expressed her desire to go to war with Sanctuary to her subordinates.

Because of Hilda's long-standing high prestige in Asgard, although the Asgardians were quite surprised by this decision, not a single person raised any questions or objections.

This made Hilda's true form very anxious.

“I don’t think it’s a bad thing for Asgard to fight against the Sanctuary!” Josie offered a completely different opinion in the face of Hilda’s anxiety.

"What do you mean by this, Your Excellency?" Hilda asked, frowning.

“It’s very simple. You can take this opportunity to put on a show with the Holy Land!” Josie said with a smile.

"A performance? You mean using the war between Asgard and Sanctuary as a pretext to bring out the culprits in the sea?" Hilda was clever and immediately understood Josie's meaning.

“That’s right. In this matter, you and the Sanctuary share a common enemy, and you can use this to gauge the Sanctuary’s strength… If they are easily defeated, why not let you replace Athena as the guardian of the earth?” Josie chuckled.

Josie knew, of course, that with Asgard's resources, it was simply unrealistic to fight against the Sanctuary.

But this did not stop him from trying to plant a seed called ambition in Hilda's heart.

Even if he fails, he won't suffer any losses.

If successful, then there might not be a need to find a different trading partner.

That's right. From the moment he met Hilda, Josie had already been scheming about how to replace Hilda as his trading partner.

Chapter 363 Loki's Mutation

After ending his communication with Hilda, Josie fell into deep thought.

Although she had promised Hilda to help her escape, she had not yet made a complete decision on how to do it.

The Ring of the Nibelung is a divine artifact, and its curse cannot be removed by just any item or prop.

There are currently only two solutions.

The first option is to trade Hilda an artifact at least on par with the Ring of Nibelung, just like Seiya destroyed the ring with Odin's sword in the story.

The second option is to directly send a god-level expert over there.

However, Josie doesn't have many options left. She can't very well send Margot over there. If something goes wrong before she can fully determine the combat strength there, Josie will have nowhere to turn.

Just as Josh was pondering this, the trading device's communication system rang.

When Josie looked, he saw that it was Abidis who was contacting him.

Without hesitation, I opened the communication.

Soon after, Abidis, looking somewhat spirited, appeared in the communication video.

"You look so happy, it must be going very well!" Josie said with a smile.

"It went very smoothly, even more smoothly than we had planned. Now most of the Broken Isles are under our control. Of the five Pillars of Creation, only the Shield of Aggramar and the Eye of Aman'Thul are still in our hands. We've even got the Tear of Elune!" Abidis said with great satisfaction.

Of the five Pillars of Creation, the Tide Stone of Gorgonath and the Hammer of Khaz'goroth were undoubtedly the first to be obtained.

Although the former has been destroyed, its fragments have remained in the Highborne ruins of the Nassaras Academy in Azsuna. With Josie, the "prophet," and a large number of high-level combatants, the Highborne ghosts in the Nassaras Academy ruins cannot have much of an impact on Abidis.

The Hammer of Khaz'goroth is even simpler; it has always been kept by the Highmountain Tauren.

Although the three Tauren tribes of Highmountain and the Tauren of Kalimdor share a common lineage, they have been separated for nearly ten thousand years.

"Elune's Tears? Didn't we say before that we shouldn't get involved with this deity for the time being?" Josie frowned slightly when she heard the name Elune.

If we're talking about the Azeroth universe, the one Josie fears most is the Moon Goddess, who has been a constant presence throughout Azeroth's history, though she has never truly appeared, she has always been influencing the entire world.

“I understand that too, but it wasn’t us who attacked Elune’s Tears, it was Xavius’s Nightmare Legion. You don’t know, with our covert support, those Nightmares are now suppressing the Night Elves on the Broken Isles, forcing them to rely on me. During this process, they have prayed to that one countless times, but there has been no response. It seems that he doesn’t care that much about these things on the ground!” Abidis didn’t seem too worried about Josie’s concerns. Anyway, having reached this point, he couldn’t possibly be timid about many things just because he was afraid of Elune.

"Well, it's good that you have your own judgment!" Josie didn't comment on Abidis's statement. After all, the other party was now a powerful figure, and Josie couldn't still treat him like a child. Everyone has to walk their own path. If she said too much, it would only have the opposite effect.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing, it's about Lord Loki!" Abidis added after explaining the current situation.

"Hmm? Loki? What happened to him?" Josie frowned again upon hearing this. He knew that his son-in-law was not a peaceful person.

However, Josie really wronged Loki this time.

The story begins with the Ancient One's journey to Northrend.

Compared to the Scarab Wall seal set up by the Dragon Aspects, Ulduar, a cage built by the guardians left behind by the Titans, has a much stronger seal. Yogg-Saron's seal is also much deeper. Therefore, it was not as easy for the Ancient One to contact Yogg-Saron as it was to contact C'Thun in Silithus.

So she needs someone to help her.

That's why the first person she approached after arriving in Northrend was Loken.

It's a pity that Loken, the traitor among the Guardians, was a cunning man; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to scheme against the other Titan Guardians later on.

However, he was extremely arrogant and looked down on humans.

After all, to these Titan Guardians, the humans of Azeroth are nothing more than the worst of the worst, the result of their creations being corrupted.

Loken didn't even consider the flesh-and-blood Vrykul, let alone humans.

And so he met his tragic end.

The Ancient One didn't bother with further conversation and simply dismantled Loken.

In any case, for her, Loken was just one of her options for contacting Yogg-Saron, not the only one.

Now that she has already ruled the Qiraji empire, there's nothing wrong with her ruling a branch of the Aqir Qiraji, right?

The Aqir empire, which once rivaled the Troll Empire, had two branches besides the Ahn'Qiraj insectoids.

One of them is the ancient underground kingdom of Azjol-Nerub, who live deep beneath Northrend, are currently little known, and will become one of the core forces of the Scourge in the future.

These are the spider demons and cave demons mentioned in the game.

As for the last one, it became the Mantid of Pandaria.

Well, as a race created by the ancient gods, its branches naturally cannot escape the control of the ancient gods.

Of course, there was resistance, for example, Ejoruni does not submit to Yogg-Saron.

However, this did not prevent the Ancient One from using these insectoids to help her dig out Yogg-Saron.

So, let Loken die, that's all that matters.

However, at the same time that the Ancient One killed Loken, Loki, who was sweeping away the Highborne ghosts on the Broken Isles of Asura, suddenly felt a huge surge of lightning power rise within him, forming a small lightning storm that swept away the surrounding ghosts, startling Loki and everyone else present.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone present was very familiar with Loki, they would have thought that the person standing there was Thor, not Loki.

This matter was immediately reported to Abidis and the Ancient One.

After all, these two were in charge of the plan targeting Azeroth.

Abidis didn't seem to notice anything, but the Ancient One found it hard not to connect Loki's change with Loken.

After all, she had learned about this world from Josie before she came here.
