"You still have to see it with your own eyes."

"Oh! You want to join me?" The Shocking Clown's eyes lit up. "Right now, only the Exploration Team has come into contact with the people of World L. If you want to meet those peoples soon, you can join the Exploration Team with me."

"This……"

Blaze looked at the Clown hesitantly. It was not that he was dissatisfied with the proposal, but he did not expect that the Clown was a two-faced person, a member of Somado, and had joined the Exploration Team.

"Ah, don't get me wrong, the Exploration Team is not a guild. If you must say it, it's like a team." The Scary Clown waved his hand and explained.

The Exploration Group is a term used among the foreigners, so it is normal for Blaze to confuse this with the guild.

Observing the ecology, collecting illustrations, and exploring the unknown are the actions of the exploration team, but the unknown environment in this world will definitely become less and less, so it is not realistic to form a guild specifically with [exploration] as the core.

Therefore, most strangers regard the exploration team as a part-time job, and when a large unknown environment appears, they will gather together to carry out exploration activities.

It is worth mentioning that the exploration team will set up camp in the wild area, that is, the monster area, build large buildings, and invite orcs to live in it.

Such areas are generally not under the jurisdiction of the kingdom, so no guild can be formed there.

"Most of the exploration teams are now in the twelve underground worlds, fighting wits and courage with dinosaurs and giant insects. The exploration team of World L is a little short of manpower." The Horror Clown spread his hands helplessly.

"I have a friend in the exploration team who asked me to take care of her camp in World L. But how can I help her alone? The other people in Somado are very busy. Originally, the best person to invite was Greenland, but she is facing the trouble of being late, so..."

“It sounds like there are a lot of reasons.”

Blaze nodded and agreed to the request of the Psycho Clown. He also wanted to go to World L, and now that there was someone leading the way, it would save a lot of trouble.

"So when do we leave?"

"Tomorrow."

"Okay, I'll wait for you here tomorrow."

……

Hebi sorted out the list in his hand with a complicated expression. Kullene hinted at something very important.

Now she is powerless against Loki, which not only means that Loki can take away her body at any time, but also means that she cannot become the second generation Loki.

The fact that she only has the title now, rather than the power, is the best proof.

Unlike Blaze who obtained the title after completing the challenge, she obtained the title of the second generation Loki purely by luck and she did not deserve this title.

If she was worthy, she could fight with Loki and snatch his power, instead of not even knowing that Loki had occupied her body.

If the current situation continues, once Loki is completely destroyed, the title of the second generation Loki will also disappear.

She is just an ordinary human being again.

Herbie unconsciously clenched the list in his hand, and the wrinkles on the paper cast layers of shadows.

Chapter 997 New Teaching Upgrade

While Blaze and Psycho Clown were waiting for the counterfeiter, they were bored and started to fight with each other.

Originally, Blaze just wanted to kill time, but after a few exchanges, he felt something new from the movements of the Psycho Clown.

The Psycho Clown seemed to be able to [read instructions] and intercepted his attack the moment he made a move. However, [reading instructions] was a move targeting skills, and he was just throwing a normal punch.

The Psycho Clown explained that this is a kind of boxing thinking that is widely circulated in their world of foreigners.

From the performance, it seems that he simply interrupted the opponent's action in advance, but in fact he saw the opponent's offensive intention and then intercepted it.

Blazer was very curious about this new knowledge and was eager to try it out. This idea sounded simple, but it was actually very difficult to use. He always unconsciously observed what the Psycho Clown was doing.

The result, of course, was that he was hit by several punches from the Psycho Clown. If it weren't for the overwhelming attribute gap, Blaze would have received more than just one or two punches.

Just as Blaze was getting more and more excited, the Psycho Joker raised his hand to indicate that it was time to stop.

"You seem to be a little too obsessed with your moves." The Psycho Clown pinched his chin and looked Blaze up and down.

"You seem to have a very powerful set of fighting skills, but you simply launch the moves one after another without connecting them together."

"Is there any difference between the two?" Blaze asked modestly.

“Which is more natural, beads arranged together or flowing water?”

"Flowing water." Blaze was stunned and turned his head with some enlightenment. He remembered the scene when Chiron used his ultimate move.

It is definitely not simply releasing skills one by one, but connecting all the moves together to form a new move like flowing water.

If Chiron was singing the praises of the beauty of life with deep feeling, then he could only be considered emotionless, reciting the lyrics in a disjointed manner.

Perhaps it was because he was so busy dodging Chiron's fists during training that he was unable to reach the level of interception mentioned by the Psycho Joker, and his moves were not integrated.

But this is not Chiron's fault. After all, it is Chiron's first day as a teacher.

"This is not something you can learn in a day or two, practice more." The Horror Clown patted Blaze's shoulder and encouraged him.

"Everyone's fighting style is different."

Blaze sighed, everyone in [Somado] has a completely different fighting style.

Two extremes are Greenland, who relies on pure reflexes, is as sharp and violent as a wild beast, but also has rational thinking; and the counterfeiter, who has completely eliminated all physical instincts, plans everything into a perfect plan and executes it perfectly.

The Clown Possibly lies somewhere in between the two. If I must say, it's probably the type that restrains each other.

Greenland can perform many completely unreasonable actions and use his overwhelming reflex speed to break the counterfeiter's plans, but if he is facing an opponent who is not inferior to Greenland in speed and can cut off the attacking thoughts and fight smoothly, the Psycho Clown will fall into a disadvantage.

In contrast, the Psycho Clown will find it difficult to deal with the Counterfeiter, because the Counterfeiter will take all common sense actions into consideration and will never be the one to take the initiative to attack.

The other members of Somado basically have their own focus within the triangle drawn by the three of them, but they also have their own unique style.

"Don't think my friend, feel, be like water."

After the Psycho Clown left a meaningful remark, the forger happened to come over, and this brief but fruitful teaching session came to an end.

"...I see, is that the case? I can't help you." After hearing Blaze's request, the counterfeiter refused without hesitation.

"[Feng Shui Master] is not such a magical profession. It cannot know what you want to know out of thin air. It requires a lot of knowledge and intelligence. Not only do you need to know the specific terrain of World L, but also the distribution of biological communities and the flow direction of underground rivers. Nothing can be omitted."

"That's expected." Blaze was not disappointed. If the forger was really omnipotent enough to predict everything in the world based on Feng Shui alone, then the forger would no longer be a human being, but an omnipotent god.

"But you can go to this place first to check it out. The terrain seems to have signs of rebirth." The counterfeiter drew a circle on the map. The size and position were very subtle. It was exactly in the middle of world L, where ice and fire intertwined.

“It is indeed God.”

……

The excitement in the Shipwreck Trench did not end until the night, and each major guild was very serious in selecting the ships for their own guild.

Although each ship is almost identical, they still enjoy discussing them, and sometimes they would argue over the same ship and end up fighting to decide the winner.

The guilds that had already chosen their ships immediately began to modify them, but they did not have a detailed understanding of the ships, so the modifications were limited to making a flag and raising it.

I don't know who came up with the sudden idea, but he suggested that the next guild war should be a naval battle, and this suggestion was unanimously approved by everyone.

After all, fighting on the land is a bit boring, but conducting large-scale battles at sea is very fresh.

The only problem is that medium and small guilds have no chance to participate.

This problem is also easy to solve, just build it. Big guilds use big ships, small guilds use small ships, and at this time, small ships are faster and more advantageous than heavy large ships.

If a guild is only allowed to send one ship to sea, then this guild war is not a pure competition of strength, but also depends on the alliances between various small and medium-sized guilds. Whoever has a larger fleet will have a higher chance of winning.

Although the Guild War had only been over for less than half a year, all the guilds were already gearing up for the next Guild War. They were even so excited that they started making threats before the war six months in advance.

Although the shipwreck ditch is like a cemetery, it is filled with laughter and joy.

Herbie stood at the exit of the wreck trench, holding the list tightly, until Blaze patted her on the shoulder and she reacted.

"What's wrong with you? You look so worried?"

"What else can it be? It's just the same as always, encountering some unpleasant things." Herbie pretended to be relaxed and patted Blazer's chest with the list in his hand.

"I heard that the stranger inside wanted to use naval warfare as a guild battle? This is a big business opportunity. I plan to sell it to a small guild. What do you think of this business?"

"I think..." Blaze put his hand on Herbie's chest.

"You're hiding something from me."

Chapter 998 Always Doing Bad Things

Herbie didn't feel any strange emotions about Blaze's sudden action, but rather felt a little helpless.

Because the place where Blaze was pressing was her heart, which had been pierced by Gungnir.

"At that time...you were dead."

"It felt like a dream. It was surprisingly painless."

Hebi smiled very relaxedly. She knew that she was not the one who felt pain at that time. Once she closed her eyes, she could not feel anything. Instead, the people around her were more sad.

"You're hiding something from me."

Blaze said again, then reached out and carried Herbie to the table, looking up at this quirky woman who always hid her true self behind countless layers of masks.

"I can't hide it from you."

Herbie squatted down, put his arms on his knees, and then tilted his head to look Blaze in the eyes.

"I think I am standing in front of a line right now, wondering whether or not to cross it. If I don't cross it, I will be getting farther and farther away from you. If I cross it, it means I am leaving you on my own initiative."

"This is a deal where I'm going to lose no matter which way I choose."

"You always plan everything so carefully and don't want to make any wrong choices." Blaze raised his hand and held Herbie's hand. These hands were really small, but they had helped him many times and had also helped many people.

"Then don't think too much. How about being a person who is tempted by the immediate benefits and enjoys the present moment?"

"Even if this is a wrong choice?"

"Don't worry, we are here."

Hebi looked at the silver-haired boy in front of him speechlessly.

The age difference between them is quite big. When she is old and ugly, she must still look like this when she is young.

When she is old with white hair and all her teeth fallen out, maybe the boy has just reached the most charming moment, and by that time... she will be the only one who is old and unrecognizable.

As an ordinary human being, how long can she be relied on by them like this? Probably 40 years. After she is 60 years old, her thinking ability will decline and she will not be able to make any more efforts.

But if she becomes a god, even if she doesn't become a god, but just possesses divine power, she can turn 40 years into 200 years. She can live longer and be more useful. She doesn't even have to stand behind the scenes anymore, but stand by her side...

A ball of fire was burning fiercely, and the temperature tempted Herbie to come closer.

Blaze was right. Maybe she didn't have to do things perfectly every time. She could also make a few mistakes.

Just like Blazer said, with them here, they will make up for any mistakes.

"For me, the ability to make mistakes is a temptation I can't resist." Herbie smiled helplessly and stretched out his hand to play with Blaze's silver hair.

"It seems that I can only stay with you for another 40 years. After that, you have to take care of me like a treasure for another 40 years."

"What do you mean?" Blaze was a little confused.

"I've decided to be a short-sighted person and not a god." Herbie flicked Blaze's forehead, then took a deep breath, stood up, and put his hands on his hips.

"What second generation Loki? I don't care! Blaze, go to World L! Loki's stinky mouth is right there, find him quickly and destroy him without leaving any trace!"

"Huh? Why is it suddenly related to Loki... No! That old bastard Culene clearly said it wasn't a big deal!"

"That's right, that guy is an old bastard. He actually dared to tempt me to accept Loki's power. He must have seen that the [Hermes's Traveling Cap] would be restored so soon, so he wanted to kick me out and take back the Chamber of Commerce! Damn it! I won't let him get his way!"

"What! Damn it! This despicable guy!"

Kullene, who was hiding not far away, broke out in cold sweat. The two, big and small, had already started discussing how to skewer him and roast him.

"what have you done?"

The chicken appeared silently behind Kulene. As soon as the chicken appeared, Kulene began to dodge comically, trying to avoid the chicken's sight.

The chicken's eyes are synchronized with Blaze's. Once a chicken sees him, Blaze will immediately chase after him.

"Honestly, have you done anything? They're all planning on sending you off to a forger."

"What! These two little bastards, I clearly meant well!" Kulene patted his chest in grief, looking as if his kindness was being taken for granted.

"I am worried that little girl Hebi will not be able to inherit Loki's power. If she doesn't inherit Loki's power, her life span will only be 100 years."

As Kullene spoke, a hint of loneliness appeared in her expression.

"100 years old is considered a long life for humans, but it's too short. I only played with them for a while, and they were dying."

"So you're just going to think of a way to make Herbie immortal?"
