The Death Knell

Chapter 91: Rich but not handsome

As the corridor continued to go down, the temperature became higher and higher. Even if the human body was modified, Su Ming's sweat continued to flow down, and it felt like it was evaporated before it reached the ground.

However, both of them are not ordinary people and can barely move on.

Finally, at the end of the corridor, an iron door appeared.

That's right, it's an iron door. It looks like the back door of a restaurant that's most common in streets and alleys. Not only is the paint peeling off, but it's also rusty. I don't know where Hephaestus, the god of forging, came from. Found this kind of garbage.

"Is this forging technology...reliable?" Barry pulled on his uniform sleeves to wipe sweat, his face flushed: "How about I take you to Pittsburgh or Detroit?"

Su Ming was a little embarrassed when he saw the broken door, but Vulcan was just a personal hobby of forging, and this door was not the front of a store.

"It's okay. This is the best blacksmith we can find on Earth. How about you find a way to send me to the New Creation Star? The equation of life can also solve our current problems. You and Darkseid Are you familiar, brother?"

"Uh... I think it's better here. Let's go in." Barry laughed dryly. The New Gods of New Genesis were not easy to deal with at all.

Su Ming just said that the life equation and the anti-life equation are different, and there are some problems. The current level of perfection will only turn people into monsters.

He touched the iron door in front of him. It was not too hot. With a little effort, the door opened with a squeaking sound.

What appeared in front of the two people was a fiery red world. Everything was completely red. There were huge crucibles on the walls, each one was almost as big as a basketball court, and blazing red magma flowed down from them. Watered in the furnace below.

In the center of the venue is a huge instrument. It’s unclear what its function is, but it emits a strong light and supplies metal and other auxiliary materials. Hundreds of people wearing thick insulation suits are busy around it, delivering various materials. Go to different furnaces, or send forged items back to the warehouse.

Yes, there are hundreds of people walking around in the huge space, but now there is only one person working on the forge.

He looked like a half-orc, three meters tall and extremely ugly. He was covered in purple-brown color and had no hair at all. His hands were covered with embers and ash, and lava was swirling on them. He was holding an ordinary-looking hammer and forging something on the iron felt.

A huge roar resounded throughout the volcano, and every hammer fell like thunder.

Su Ming recognized him at a glance as Hephaestus, the God of Fire, the son of Zeus and the brother of Wonder Woman.

Despite his ugly appearance, his wife is actually Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of beauty, the most beautiful of all gods. It is said that when ordinary humans see her beauty, they will miss her food and drink until they starve to death. They will still read her name when they die, and their souls after death will describe her beauty to the God of Death.

In fact, this way of death is quite suitable for Zha Kang. Doesn’t he not want to go to heaven or hell? All he needs to do is ask the God of Fire to let Zha Kang meet the God of Beauty. After his death, he will be under the control of the Greek god system.

Although the God of Fire looks ferocious, his nature is actually the most humane and kind among the gods. He takes in the men of Paradise Island who should be killed and works for him here.

Hundreds of years ago, when there was no Diana on Paradise Island, there was a very bad custom of going out to sea to snatch men.

Once every three years, they row canoes across the sea, and when they encounter human cargo ships, they will approach them. Through force or charm, they will have an open party with the crew and passengers. After three days of partying, they will Kill all men.

Afterwards, they returned to Paradise Island and waited for the birth of their children. The girls were left to be trained as warriors, while the boys were thrown into the sea and killed.

Once, the god of fire Hephaestus picked up the body of a child like this. He couldn't bear it, so he went to Paradise Island and made an agreement with the women not to kill the children. He would go there every three years and kill all the boys. Bring them all to the volcano.

Although he has a good temper and speaks calmly, he is a real god. His responsibilities include volcanoes, magma, thunder and fire, weapons and equipment, etc. The Amazons immediately relented and gave him all the boys they gave birth to.

The workers working in these volcanoes are all abandoned babies from Paradise Island. They have more or less Amazon blood characteristics, such as long life, strong strength, etc. They know that the God of Fire saved them, so they willingly work inside the volcano. We lived and worked together and worshiped him.

However, with the advancement of technology in modern society, they are no longer able to do this. In addition, in recent years, Diana has become the Queen of the Amazon. She advocates gender equality and the secularization of the paradise island. If she wants to find a man, leave the island and go to the city to find a good relationship. Don’t just fall in love. For breeding purposes, those who do not want to find a man to have children can stay on Paradise Island to look after the family.

In short, going out to sea to snatch men has not happened for nearly a hundred years, so the Vulcan side has not had new people join it for decades.

...........

Su Ming knew that the God of Fire was aware of him. Stepping into the volcano was entering his divine domain, and no disturbance could be hidden from him.

However, he did not regard himself as an outsider at all, and walked down the stairs behind the door. This staircase was built on the inner wall of the volcano and was made of a special metal, like a spiral ribbon.

He walked straight behind Vulcan and watched him bang something, silently, while Barry just wiped his sweat.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Vulcan watched the shapeless metal gradually turn into a scimitar. Vulcan handed the shaped scimitar to the workers for quenching, then turned around and nodded to Su Ming.

"I thought it was Diana coming to see me, but I didn't expect it was the strongest human warrior from another world."

"I can't say I'm the strongest, because now I need the help of the Olympus gods."

Su Ming's heart felt calm. Although the surrounding environment was extremely hot, he knew that he had to be careful when dealing with gods. No matter how docile a lion looks, it can also eat people.

"I'm already prepared. Come on, you guys follow me." Vulcan dropped his hammer and made a small hole in the ground, beckoning Su Ming and Barry to follow him.

After walking to another direction inside the volcano, Vulcan opened a door and led the way inside.

"Huh? It's so cool here." Barry suddenly became energetic. He was surrounded by walls made of forged metal. The light was visible, and he couldn't feel any heat at all.

"Oh, this is the residential area. I installed central air conditioning here." Vulcan answered him without looking back.

"Ahem, air conditioner..." Barry was dumbfounded and almost choked on his own saliva.

The God of Fire glanced at him with a half-smile, and the rolling lava in his eyes seemed to be gushing out: "What, do you think we old gods are all antiques? Or do you think my craftsmanship cannot make toys like air conditioners?"

"No, I definitely don't have such thoughts. Haha, how could it be?" Barry showed an awkward yet polite smile.

Vulcan was not angry, but turned a corner and took them directly to the warehouse, showing Barry the finished products he had built one by one.

"This is a supercar built by me. It is made entirely of divine gold. It is indestructible and has a top speed of 1,800 kilometers per hour."

"This is a private jet I built. It is also inlaid with divine gold and precious stones. It can drive automatically through divine power. Not only can it become invisible, it can also break through the atmosphere."

"This is the satellite I forged for the God System. One satellite can watch TV programs from all over the world in Olympus. Heavenly Father will come to accept it in a few days."

All kinds of glittering high-tech items appeared in front of them, which were not only beautiful to look at but also easy to use. Finally, Vulcan let the two of them take a look at the half-assembled space battleship, which made their scalps go numb.

Only gods can make ships by hand.

No wonder he can marry a beautiful woman. If he has money, he can really do whatever he wants. I thought Bruce would be rich enough, but I didn’t expect that the real rich man is hiding in a volcano playing with figurines.
