Offer blocks to the end times

Confused, Dionysus decided to test Thousand Hands to see if he was the mastermind behind the man-eating flower. But who should he send? Then he thought of a suitable candidate.

Soma is bored, but he's too lazy to deal with his subordinates. The divine wine, which was originally meant as a reward, has changed the atmosphere of the entire clan. No one can resist the temptation of the divine wine, which disappoints Soma. He can only indulge in his hobby - brewing wine. However, recently, for some reason, the guild has forbidden him from brewing wine, so he can only sit here in a daze.

The guys who rushed in a couple of days ago were quite interesting. He initially thought they had gotten rid of the divine wine on their own, but it turned out they were only freed because of the purifying power of the 'unicorn horn'. This disappointed him a bit, but none of that mattered to him.

Looking outside, however, there were fewer guards at headquarters. It seemed they had all gone to guard the wine cellar, fearing a robbery might occur there as well. But it didn't matter; they could leave it all to Sannes. Even if they were robbed, it wouldn't be a problem.

It's so boring, but the ban will be lifted in a few days. After all, it's my only hobby. But thinking about Lily is really a pity. She was so close to me when we were little, but I can't believe she couldn't resist the divine wine. I wonder how she is now? Well, it doesn't matter anyway. She's probably dead somewhere.

Soma sat there, his thoughts constantly surging and fading. After an unknown amount of time, the door opened, and a golden-haired deity entered, carrying a wine bottle. He seemed to have seen him in the heavens; he appeared to be a god of wine, in charge of wine. Soma wondered what the wine was made of, as it appeared to be white.

“Soma, still standing here in a daze?” Dionysus greeted the god who was sitting blankly on the ground. “I have obtained something good from someone else, which will surely relieve your troubles.”

Dionysus said, glancing at the slightly ajar door with a smile, "This is a panacea that can cure all ailments. Just a small cup will cure your child's alcoholism."

“Is that so?” Somo raised his head blankly, looking at the contents of the bottle. He immediately recognized it. “It’s just milk.”

“It’s milk, of course, but it’s milk from the divine cow, which can cure alcohol addiction,” Dionysus said, shaking the bottle. “Maybe it’s a good ingredient, maybe it can be used to make something that will make children completely resistant to the divine wine, then you won’t have to worry about the children’s addiction.”

“Hmm, I’ll give it a try,” Soma nodded, and Dionysus added, “I got this from the Thousand-Handed God. He just defeated Apollo, but his headquarters is in the ruins, and there are hardly any people there. I don’t know what he was thinking, living there by himself. What if bad guys steal all the materials?”

"Hmm," Somo replied absentmindedly, then looked around at the cabinets, trying to find a suitable combination. In any case, he would try to make a drink with this first, and then study hangover remedies.

Dionysus smiled and left. After saying goodbye to the gatekeeper, he returned home to await news. Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the Soma Familia, Sannes also received the information. However, he recognized the Thousand Hands as the god who had come to cause trouble a few days ago, especially since he had defeated Apollo yesterday. Therefore, he dared not report to the guild, fearing that the other party would rob the wine cellar.

However, he is now actually exporting hangover cures, which is undermining the foundation of his rule over his clan. If everyone has hangover cures, who would blindly pray for divine wine? His own power would also be taken away.

However, according to that person, the Thousand-Handed God seems to live alone in the ruins, and must have some ulterior motive. Perhaps the hangover cure is produced there; I should send someone to investigate.

Fan.

If there's no one else, then send that god to heaven. This is all thanks to Ishtar's ascension, which gave him inspiration. As long as the god ascends to heaven, all problems can be solved. Didn't you see that the Ishtar Familia, which was originally at the top level, has completely collapsed?

If a base exists there, report it anonymously to the guild, saying that they are trying to dig open the dungeon, build a separate passage, and release the monsters from the dungeon. Spread some rumors to get people to go and check, and then he can incite people to completely destroy the place.

Sunis, who was having a wonderful idea, thought of a suitable person. It was the same person Soma had mentioned to him. He hadn't expected that a supporter would have such amazing transformation magic. He had to get his hands on this. However, it seemed that she was about to leave the clan. He decided to let her try this mission first. Maybe he could reduce her fee by one fael.

Thinking of something happy, Sunnis laughed out loud, then quietly left and waited for Lily at the place she was staying.

After attending Bell's celebration, Lily happily went home, but she was also a little worried. Bell was leveling up so quickly, could she really keep up? Just like what Lord Senju said, her will was too weak, and one day Bell would abandon her, which annoyed her.

But then, touching the photo in her arms, she felt a sweet warmth in her heart. In order not to hold Lord Bell back, she still needed to work hard. She just didn't know what Lord Bell's new teammates would be like. She hoped they wouldn't be girls. But if Lily could help, that would be great. Then it would be just Lord Bell and her alone together. Thinking like that, she hoped the next teammate would be a boy so she could continue to be intimate with Lord Bell.

Lost in thought, Lily walked to the alley next to the general store where she was staying, and her face immediately turned pale. She recognized the person standing there as the leader of her own clan—the Soma Familia—'The Keeper of the Wine', Sannes.

"Commander, what's the matter?" Lily asked timidly, secretly holding a few bullets in her hand. Sannes smiled and said, "Lily, there's a mission right now. I've thought about it and you're the only one suitable. If you do well, I can ask Soma to let you leave the Familia."

Chapter 487 Becoming a God Overnight

Back home, Senju was unaware that his actions had aroused the suspicion of the other gods. After all, his appearance was too coincidental; he would appear whenever something happened, and he even brought out items he had never heard of before, whose origins were unknown. There were also suspicious new species and completely unknown top-tier combatants. Everything pointed to him.

Even if Senju knew all this, he wouldn't care. After sending William and the others back to their space to rest, Senju began to focus on making amulets.

After a while, Thousand Hands produced several hundred amulets. He selected some and assembled them into armbands. Then, he traveled through his mind to see what everyone was doing and distributed the amulets.

In the Fairy House's cafeteria, a group of people were watching a movie. Senju glanced around and noticed that Chito and the others were there too. Ishii was also there, but she had set up a few more computers and was sitting there looking at documents.

The town was peaceful, with only occasional lights, indicating that everyone had gone to bed early. Looking towards the blocky people's territory, they were still cultivating plants, some of which had already expanded into large patches.

Seeing that everyone was together, Senju could only wait until he had some free time to discuss the amulet; for now, he went to rest.

However, he was woken up in the middle of the night by a disturbance. He wondered who was so inconsiderate as to knock on his bedroom door so late at night. Wait, the bedroom door?! Could it be that William and the others had something to say?

Senju opened the door, only to find Belle and Lily standing outside, both looking hesitant to speak. Senju looked at them speechlessly and said, "Hey, what's up with you two? You don't have to come to my house for a date."

“No,” Bell hurriedly waved his hand, then looked at Lily beside him, “Star God, Lily has something to report to you.”

“Is that so? Then let’s talk in the living room,” Senju led the two to the living room and turned on a light. “Lily, is there something you need? And how did you get in?”

“Lord Star God’s defenses are too weak. Lily got in without any trouble,” Lily said calmly from the side, then looked at Thousand Hands. “But that’s not what I came here to talk about. I came here to talk about something else.”

"What is it?" Senju looked at Lily, who had become serious, and he also became serious. Then he heard her say, "Lord Star God, you are being watched."

"Who is it? Could it be Apollo?" Senju pondered for a moment, then heard Lily say, "It's someone from the Soma Familia. When I went back today, I ran into Captain Sannes. He told me that you stole a batch of divine sake from the Familia a few days ago and wanted me to scout out the hiding place. If this news is exposed, many members of the Soma Familia will definitely come to steal it."

"Hmm, I see," Senju also felt a bit of a headache. If what she said was true, then a lot of people would definitely come to harass them in the future. "But he sent you here, does he know about our relationship? Doesn't that drag Bell into this too?"

“He doesn’t know we know each other, but since Lord Bell lives so close, it’s easy for things to get out of hand,” Lily said, her eyes…

The god changed his mind, saying, "As for why he came to me, it's all because of my magic 'Cave Ash Woman,' which allows me to change my appearance at will, making it very convenient for reconnaissance."

“Your mark belongs to me, and my mark is still mine,” Lily said, her form slowly transforming into Aisha’s likeness, without any visible flaws from the outside. “That’s why he sent me here; by transforming me like this, I don’t have to worry about being exposed.”

“I see, I didn’t know you had this skill,” Thousand Hands said with some admiration, then watched as Lily dispelled the spell, “The Voice of Apocalypse at 12 o’clock.”

“But Lily, you can transform into a giant monster to intimidate your enemies,” Senju suggested from the side. However, Lily was somewhat frustrated. “The transformation of this magic requires changes based on the imagery during the incantation. A lack of concrete imagery will result in failure. Those powerful monsters are beyond Lily’s ability to study.”

“I see. But I do have a good idea,” Senju thought he had a solution, but Lily didn’t care about that. Instead, she asked anxiously, “Lord Star God, do you have any way to deal with them? It will be troublesome if Lord Bell gets involved.”

“Hmm, let me think,” Senju pondered for a while but couldn’t find a suitable solution. However, looking at Lily beside him, he suddenly had a good idea. “Lily, why don’t you go back and report that you couldn’t find the God Bar?”

“That won’t do. This mission is crucial to whether Lily can leave the Soma Familia,” Lily said unhappily from the side. “Besides, he’s certain that Lord Star God hid the divine wine here, so he definitely won’t let this go.”

"This is so troublesome," Senju complained, but he also knew that those who were addicted couldn't be reasoned with, and their attention had to be diverted elsewhere.

After thinking about it for a while, he looked at Lily and his eyes lit up. "Lily, as long as you become the leader of the Soma Familia, there won't be any problems, right?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, Lord Star God? Lily is just a supporter, how could she possibly defeat an adventurer?" Lily glared at Senju, annoyed. If she could do it, she would have already beaten up all those people in the Familia.

“No, there’s a way. Your transformation magic can do it,” Thousand Hands opened a space beside him. “As long as you transform into a powerful monster, you can defeat them.”

“Lord Star God, my magic only alters, it doesn’t have any corresponding power,” Lily reminded her helplessly. Senju nodded, then poured out a bunch of amulets. “Of course I know, but I happen to have a suitable amulet here. The one with ‘power that matches the appearance’ was originally designed for alteration magic, but I’ll give it to you now, along with my summoning magic.”

Such amulets are actually designed to be used in conjunction with alteration magic, which can freely change the appearance of creatures. William once told me that someone used this to turn a rabbit into a dragon, but unfortunately, after finally killing it, all they got was a dead rabbit.

As she explained, Thousand Hands summoned a series of monsters in the space, including the Minotaur, Goliath, Ender Dragon, Pteranodon, and Two-Headed Dragon. "That should be fine now."

"Lord Star God? Is all of this true? I can also possess such power?" Lily was somewhat incredulous. Senju nodded and handed her the amulet. "Of course, this amulet is perfect for you. You must handle this matter well and not let the Soma Familia come looking for trouble with me."

“Yes, Lord Star God,” Lily excitedly accepted the amulet, then looked at the monsters on the side. Thousand Hands looked at Bell, who was staring blankly to the side, and said, “Bell, take her inside and take a closer look, so that she won’t fail to transform when she uses it in the future. Those monsters won’t move now.”

“Yes, Lord Star God,” Bell said after regaining his senses. He then led Lily inside to carefully observe the monsters, while Senju lay down on the sofa to continue sleeping.

When he woke up again, he saw a two-headed dragon hopping around in the space, while Bell stood on it, looking around.

Chapter 488 In short, it all comes down to money.

"Oh, so you'll succeed in the future," Senju nodded after waking up. Then, after watching the two play for a while, he returned to normal and came back to his side.

“Thank you, Lord Star God,” Lily nodded gratefully, and Senju nodded as well. “How are you feeling? Have you adapted to the power after the transformation?”

"It's alright, but the power after transformation is really strong. This is a divine artifact for Lily," Lily picked up the amulet and touched it, then exclaimed, "Huh, why is there a crack here?"

“Lily, you must be mistaken,” Bell said anxiously as he heard the item break. Thousand Hands, on the other hand, understood perfectly. “That’s how amulets are. If you use their power, they will slowly break down, not to mention turning into monsters that surpass their own power. It can probably transform into a two-headed dragon five more times, or maintain the transformation for twenty hours. Be careful when using it.”

"Oh dear, how could it be like this?" Lily was very disappointed. She thought she could use it indefinitely. Senju shook his head from the side, "Even so, it's strong enough. And as long as it's not completely broken, I can fix it."

"Phew, I see," Lily breathed a sigh of relief, but Senju reminded her...

Then he said, "I'll fix it for you this time, but the next repair won't be free; it'll be very expensive."

“I know,” Lily nodded. She didn’t think that someone would give her such a powerful tool just because she solved a small problem. “I will use it well…”

As Lily was speaking, she suddenly felt dizzy and sat down on the sofa. Bell, who was next to her, asked anxiously, "Lily, what's wrong?"

Lily leaned against Bell, swaying slightly. "Lord Bell, don't worry, I'm just a little tired from not sleeping all night. I'll be fine after a short nap, snoring away."

Looking at Lily sleeping while holding Bell, Senju was speechless. "Bell, it seems she's very tired. Why don't you take her back to rest?"

"Yes, Lord Star God, we're going back now," Bell bowed and then carried Lily away, though Senju saw Lily behind him and smiled smugly.

Senju ignored the two of them. He was a little conflicted because he had heard Hestia and Hermes say last night that the 'Assembly of the Gods', which was held every three months, would take place in seven days. The new titles of adventurers would be decided at the meeting, and they hoped that Senju would attend as well.

Senju wasn't worried about the conflict with the expedition; he just found it troublesome. After all, according to Hestia's explanation, this "Assembly of the Gods" was more like a "nickname-giving contest." They said it had been held for thousands of years, and the nicknames given were all quite chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur). So Hestia wanted to win him over and give Bell a more ordinary nickname.

Senju didn't think much of it at the time and readily agreed. Now that she thinks about it, she feels it's a bit of a hassle. However, she heard that William and the others' nicknames will be decided at the conference, so it seems she has no choice but to go this time.

After hesitating for a while, Senju looked into the space where William was currently leading the children in swordsmanship practice. Senju thought for a moment and then entrusted the matter of choosing nicknames and amulets to William and the others, letting them handle it so that Senju could bring it up at the conference.

After finishing his business, Senju went out. However, there was no one in the training room today, so he planned to go to Loki's place to see how the expedition preparations were going.

When Sannes, who was monitoring from outside, saw the Thousand Hands emerge while Lily was nowhere to be seen, he guessed that Lily had failed. It seemed that the defenses there were very tight. However, this god coming out alone was indeed a good opportunity to strike.

However, after thinking about it, he slowly retreated, intending to pass the message on to the Apollo clan and incite them to teach this god a lesson, preferably sending him directly back to heaven.

After chuckling a few times, Sannes went to find a scapegoat, while Senju, completely unaware, went to the Loki Familia's encampment.

However, when Senju arrived, she found that there wasn't much of an expedition atmosphere here. Loki was bothering the female members of the Familia, asking them to go to their rooms to update their attributes, but no one paid any attention to her.

When she saw Senju arrive, she looked up and greeted him, "Hey, Senju, how are the preparations for the expedition going?"

“Uh,” Senju, who was originally going to ask her, was also stunned. He seemed to have been unprepared for anything. “Haha, well, as long as I’m here, there won’t be any problems.”

"You didn't come up with nothing, did you?" Loki looked at Senju suspiciously. Senju chuckled dryly. "Hahaha, what do I need to prepare?"

“There’s a lot to prepare,” Loki said helplessly to Thousand Hands. “You didn’t go there without reading any information, did you? For the middle level, you need to prepare a cloak made of fire spirit cloth; the Obsidian Guards on the thirty-seventh level are covered in exorcism stones, which can reduce the effects of magic; the fifty-ninth level is an icy region, and you can’t go there without special equipment. You didn’t read any of that, did you?”

"Hahaha," Thousand Hands was sweating a little. He really hadn't looked at it at all, which made Loki doubt his willingness to participate in the expedition. Did he think this was a long journey? The dungeon wasn't that gentle. If it weren't for the fact that he had sponsored so much and sent such strong subordinates, she wouldn't have wanted Thousand Hands to join.

“In that case, I’ll handle it for you. It only costs a little money,” Loki said, rubbing his hands together as he approached Senju. Senju nodded helplessly. “Alright, let me calculate how many people’s equipment we need. We can get it all done at once. William, Chtholly… Haruhime, about twelve sets of equipment are needed.”

“Twelve sets?” Loki’s eyes lit up as he held out his hand. “If we were to fully equip them, it would cost six hundred million falies, and they would all be high-level gear.”

“I have a feeling you’re lying to me, but whatever,” Senju shook his head and took out two keys. “There’s probably a billion in here. Also, help me collect some rare materials.”

“Oh, Thousand Hands is so generous. In that case, I can give you the materials dropped during the expedition,” Loki’s eyes lit up. “I’ve heard from Ais and the others that your ‘Realm Reality Marble’ has a lot of space inside. It’s perfect for processing those materials, and you can even make a profit that way.”

“Hmm, that makes sense,” Thousand Hands was confused by Loki’s words. He used 400 million mana to buy up the materials that Loki’s Familia had obtained on their expedition, even though the Loki Familia couldn’t have handled or taken these materials with them and had to leave them behind.

Loki was even happier after solving the problem. He handed the key to his men and told them to continue supplying the expedition with more materials. Thousand Hands, on the other hand, looked at his own pocket and prepared to use the items to extort money from Loki after the expedition returned.

Chapter 489 Magic and Seals

"By the way, in a couple of days..."

"The expedition is about to begin, everyone needs to familiarize themselves with the procedures," Loki said earnestly. "Have your kin and Finn practice with them these next couple of days."

“Yes, that’s fine,” Thousand Hands nodded. He also knew the importance of cooperation. “However, they don’t have much experience in the underground city, so Finn and the others will have to give them more guidance.”

“Yes, of course,” Loki said happily, then leaned closer. “Hey, Haruhime will be joining too, right? My kids are very interested in her.”

"Hmm, Haruhime will participate, and maybe another LV7 will join as well," Senju nodded, speaking in a nonchalant tone.

"What?! A Level 7?" Loki's eyes widened. "Where did you find this Familia? I'm starting to get jealous!"

“Well, she was originally William’s junior sister. Don’t you also have many powerful familias?” Senju said awkwardly, glancing around. “By the way, where are Ais and Lefia?”

“They went to the dungeon to practice. Lefia seems to be practicing a new chanting method. I wonder how it’s going,” Loki said, scratching his head as he looked at Thousand Hands. “I really envy you. You have so many powerful subordinates.”
