Chapter 190: Gaia's Blessing - Protection of the Earth
Chapter 190: Gaia's Blessing - Protection of the Earth
"You're finally back, Dionsysus, but it seems you've changed quite a bit?"
In the Underworld Palace, Hades saw Qin MuYe walk in.
"My bloodline has been completed from the Age of Lords, and the issue of divine authority has been resolved, though the price was a bit steep." Qin MuYe mumbled.
He then released the powerful aura of his human bloodline.
Hades, upon seeing this, couldn't help but narrow his eyes: "Sky, Earth, Underworld, Sea... This..."
His expression showed surprise. This was too outrageous. They had all agreed to make you a god of wine, but now you're aiming for a god king?
"Not just that, look, I have this too, though the color is a bit off." Qin MuYe said, as lightning crackled in his hand. Without the support of the Underworld in the Horror Universe, the power wasn't as strong.
"How did you manage this?" Hades asked, his eyes gleaming with interest.
"Oh, I completed a task and obtained the bloodline of the Second Generation God King, Cronus. After fusing it with my own bloodline, I transformed into this form. It took me two months."
"Unfortunately, I didn't obtain the bloodline of the First Generation God King, Uranus. Otherwise, I might have become even stronger."
"The divine authority was also obtained there, but I couldn't bring it back. I still need to complete more tasks."
Qin MuYe spoke easily, knowing that the other party didn't have the full picture.
Hades, however, was left speechless. Although he didn't fully understand, he grasped the meaning: Qin MuYe had fused his bloodline with that of the Second Generation God King, a bit like a son becoming his own father.
"What task... could you even obtain a bloodline advancement?" Hades finally asked after a long pause.
"Exclusive task, what's the problem?" Qin MuYe said, "Don't worry, if there are similar tasks in the future, I'll share one with you."
"..." Hades indicated that he didn't want it. Bloodlines couldn't be stacked.
"Alright, let's not talk about this. Mother Goddess Gaia has been waiting impatiently. After all, you've been gone for two months, and she was afraid you'd run away," Hades said.
"Why would I come back if not to fulfill my promise? Of course, it has to be done according to the requirements. Otherwise, it's a no-go." Qin MuYe wasn't a fool. When he was weak, he could make concessions, but now, he had the power to force the other party to give up their interests.
Hades quickly sent someone to inform Gaia, and it didn't take long—about ten minutes—before he brought a group over.
In addition to Gaia, there was the Second Generation God King, Cronus. As for the three Titans standing to the side, Qin MuYe didn't recognize them.
"Dionysus, you're finally back." Gaia sighed in relief. Qin MuYe's sudden disappearance had frightened her.
"Mother Goddess, it's good to see you. Could you introduce these gentlemen? We'll be working together in the future," Qin MuYe said with a smile.
"I won't introduce Cronus again, as you've already met. This is Rhea, the Second Generation Queen of Heaven."
"As for them, you should be familiar. This is Thethys, the Goddess of the Sea, and Oceanus, the God of the Ocean."
"They will assist you and ensure that Cronus cannot escape control."
Gaia introduced them one by one to Qin MuYe.
"Mother Goddess, this seems a bit unfair. Apart from Queen Rhea, the other two seem to be seeking refuge here." Qin MuYe's expression remained unchanged, but he spoke frankly. It was clear that Thethys and Oceanus had offended Zeus and were on the run.
"More importantly, what means do I have to control them? Although they are my elders, I doubt they would consider family ties much, especially since their son-in-law is still being punished in the Underworld, and they haven't even tried to rescue him, let alone help me, a distant nephew."
His words were very realistic. Thethys and Oceanus's expressions changed slightly, but they didn't say anything.
On the contrary, the Second Generation God King, Cronus, and Queen Rhea looked at Qin MuYe with a peculiar expression. Both of them could sense the bloodline of Cronus in Qin MuYe, and even Gaia noticed it.
"I will grant you a blessing, giving you the power to manage the Titan offspring.
As Gaia spoke, a divine power emerged and entered Qin MuYe's body.
【You have received Gaia's Blessing: Protection of the Earth (Partial)】
【Protection of the Earth (Partial): You can command the Second Generation God King Cronus, the Second Generation Queen of Heaven Rhea, the Goddess of the Sea Thethys, and the God of the Ocean Oceanus to unconditionally perform one task per day. However, if the task involves suicide or forced humiliation, it will be void. The Titans will also actively protect your safety and the interests of your territory, and they cannot intentionally or indirectly harm you or your territory.】
"Mother Goddess, you are truly generous!" Qin MuYe looked at the partial Protection of the Earth blessing, guessing that it had been modified later and was limited to these four Titan deities, with no effect on other Titans.
"Now you can rest assured. I hope you will fulfill your promise," Gaia said.
"Mother Goddess, rest assured. Once I am wealthy enough, I will definitely arrange a world for them. For now, I can only temporarily settle them in my territory. I hope these four will not deliberately oppose me. This is a show of respect before force," Qin MuYe said.
The Protection of the Earth blessing had its limits, but it also had a baseline. For instance, Qin MuYe could command them to sleep, and then send them back while they were unaware.
However, it seemed there would not be too many issues. There was some sincerity, but truly controlling the lives of these four Titans was unlikely, and Gaia would not really give him that power.
"Cronus will abide by the agreement," Gaia thought Qin MuYe was concerned about the Second Generation God King Cronus.
Qin MuYe did not say anything more but instead said, "I need to mention one thing: once you leave this world, your divine authorities will likely disappear, leaving only your inherent strength."
"More importantly, in the world where I reside, there are also deities, though they are not very powerful. However, you should not cause trouble because, besides the racial deities, there are also beings known as the Ancient Gods, who are currently awakening. Their strength is formidable and can destroy an entire world."
Qin MuYe said this simply, worried that these four Titan deities might cause trouble.
"We will keep our promise, Dionysus," the Second Generation God King Cronus said.
"Good, let's go then." Qin MuYe opened a super-temporal teleportation channel and took the four Titans out of the fairy tale world.
The next moment, they appeared in Qin MuYe's underground resource warehouse.
The piles of various resources, treasures, and gold coins made the four Titans somewhat surprised, not because they had never seen so much, but because it was unexpected. After all, in their eyes, Qin MuYe was truly weak.
They also felt the disconnection from their divine authorities, though it was not complete. The connection still existed.
"Dionysus, why do you have my bloodline?" the Second Generation God King Cronus asked hesitantly after leaving.
"Is it possible that Hades is your son?" Qin MuYe countered.
"..." Cronus was speechless. That was indeed the case.
"Alright, I actually used a reward from 'The Age of Lords' to purify and regress my bloodline, which is why this situation has occurred," Qin MuYe explained.
"This game is truly astonishing," the Second Generation Queen of Heaven Rhea remarked.
Currently, Cronus appeared calm, showing no signs of agitation. It seemed Gaia had taken some strong measures.
"From now on, I will have my goblins arrange things. If you need anything, come to the third floor of the Mage Tower. I am usually there."
For the arrangement of these four powerful Titans, Qin MuYe naturally had Black Hand handle it. At least in terms of communication, Black Hand was much better than him. Otherwise, he would have given rigid commands, which would not be pleasant, especially when giving orders to those stronger than himself. Speaking was an art, and Qin MuYe had not mastered it.
The four Titans exchanged glances and then nodded, "No problem, I will try my best to help you, Dionysus."
For now, they would observe the situation. It was not wise to take on too much responsibility upon arrival.
