I like traveling the most

The tranquil desert was broken by the fast-moving medium-sized ship, and many creatures buried underneath were turned to the surface. The ship with the mast hoisted used the strong wind to push away the soft sand and soil and ran rampant in the desert. The speed was much faster than before, and the hurried escape seemed to be to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.

In fact, they did encounter a big crisis just now, but they escaped inexplicably later.

The stiff body gradually warmed up, and the cold sweat on the back was replaced by new sweat. However, there was no joy of surviving the disaster, and the people on the ship did not cheer and laugh. They walked back and forth on the ship in an orderly manner and concentrated on controlling the ship, but unconsciously cast their eyes on the three people on the deck.

To be precise, it was two people and one god.

——The goddess was watching him.

When Xiaolin realized this, the elf curse on his neck issued a warning that stimulated his skin and brought him back to his senses. The alarm bells in his heart were ringing and he didn't dare to look at them at all.

He didn't know if he would explode or melt if he looked at her again, but he knew clearly that if he continued to look at her, he would definitely become a captive of her [beauty].

He forced his eyes away and stopped himself from looking into the eyes of the goddess of beauty.

But he didn't expect that his actions would make Freya more interested. The light in her eyes became brighter. She looked directly into his soul through the obstacles of clothes and flesh, and her divine power continued to surge and break through his layers of defense.

When Xiaolin was about to fall, Freya finally stopped.

After seeing the extremely pure energy, which wrapped the soul in chaotic gray, the goddess of beauty sighed inaudibly.

For some reason, Xiaolin blamed himself.

That's right. He who disappointed the goddess was an unforgivable sinner and should kneel down and offer everything he had to ask for forgiveness from her!

But before he could take any action, a cool breath came from his chest and went straight to his mind. After several washes and recovery, Xiaolin gradually found himself again.

...

Hiss————

Xiaolin took a breath.

She is indeed a goddess of beauty! Just a little bit of divinity almost captured him! If it weren't for Aqua's necklace, he might have fallen!

As if she noticed something was wrong with her, Freya slowly restrained her divinity.

"I'm sorry."

"...You're exaggerating."

Xiaolin was flattered by the goddess' apology.

The other party was a goddess, and she was higher than him in strength, experience, and status, but she didn't do anything rude and willful to him, and even apologized to Xiaolin.

Freya, the main god of one of the two strongest families in Orario, would apologize to others?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

If other people heard it, they would definitely drop their jaws.

"You are very good. Freya smiled and praised again: "I didn't expect that you could easily kill the giant worm. You are very strong. Thank you for saving this ship."

Xiaolin lowered his head: "You are too kind. Even if Liu Zi didn't take action, you would not be harmed. "

When Liu Zi beheaded the giant worm with one knife, eight hostile auras instantly locked onto him and Liu Zi, and Xiao Lin did not dare to act rashly.

He clearly could not feel anything before. If Liu Zi had not used the [Imaginary Number Mechanism] to make the people in the dark hostile, he would not have discovered that someone was following him in the dark until now.

But that somewhat impetuous aura did not express anything in the end, but turned into threats and hints.

'If you dare to make strange moves, your head will fall off in the next second!'

They are conveying this message.

No need to think, it must be the eight cadres of Freya's family. They must have searched for the traces of the goddess and then desperately chased after her. However, after discovering the goddess, they did not show up, but chose to protect her silently. If Liu Zi's ability was not too strange and dangerous, they might have been lurking in the dark. They have not appeared until now, which may also be the result of the goddess's instruction.

By the way... Being stared at by eight men, I always feel something is strange.

Suddenly——

"She, is not a human. No, to be precise, she should not be a living creature. "

The goddess' words brought Xiaolin back to his senses, and she dropped a bombshell right away.

She pursed her lips, not knowing how to answer.

Freya was not annoyed by Xiaolin's silence, but continued to speak bluntly: "You should have realized it just now, I can see through the soul. But she... this girl in a gorgeous dress is not a human, she does not have the radiance of the soul."

"——What? !"

A scream came from his ear, and the harsh voice interrupted the conversation.

Xiaolin turned his head and saw Bofuman and a small box with a gold border in his hands.

The goddess's slight reproach and Xiaolin's calm eyes made Bofuman smile awkwardly.

"What's the matter, Bofuman?"

"Yes, goddess! In fact, I came here specifically to thank this... Mr. Xiaolin. Thanks to his help, the ship was saved and you were not hurt at all. "

He is very smart.

The gratitude is sincere, but the clever part is to bring Freya along.

This immediately changed the meaning from him being the one to thank to him being the one to thank "on behalf of" Freya, and inadvertently made the goddess of beauty owe him a favor. And it is definitely worth it for him to get to know a strong man.

For a businessman, vision and investment are the top priorities.

It's just that his little thoughts have long been exposed in front of the god with hundreds of millions of years of experience. Xiaolin did not point it out, but nodded, took the small box he handed over, and then handed it to Liu Zi.

"You're welcome, Mr. Captain, I'm just returning the favor for your help.

"Boffman, please call me Boffman! And this is what you deserve, Mr. Xiaolin. This ship is far more important than a little thought. Please don't refuse."

That respectful and polite look made people feel uncomfortable.

It seemed that Liu Zi's actions and the words that offended him had really frightened him.

"Boffman, I still like your unruly look at the beginning. Please recover."

"Hey hey, hey hey hey——"

Boffman smiled awkwardly, but quickly returned to his previous attitude.

"Speaking of the topic just now." Boffman glanced at Liu Zi and asked curiously: "Ms. Freya just said that... this Miss Liu Zi is not a human being. What does it mean?"

This guy thought he had just come at the right time and ignored this topic, but unexpectedly he turned around and brought it up again.

Freya also said with interest: "Can you tell me, Xiaolin."

"You are really discerning. My goddess' vision is admirable. Both body and soul are exposed under your eyes." Xiaolin was not only praising but also being weird, but finally explained: "As you said, Liu Zi is not a human being, but a doll girl, so she naturally has no brilliance of soul."

"Human, doll?! She is actually a doll?!"

Boffman screamed.

After all, in his opinion, Liu Zi was no different from human beings in terms of her movements, demeanor, or conversation. She said it was a doll, but subconsciously she didn’t believe it.

But since it was said by the goddess, I can only believe it even if I am deeply reluctant.

"Such a realistic doll is really refreshing." The goddess stared at Liu Zi carefully and couldn't help but murmured: "Hehehe. It seems that choosing to set off to the southeast is indeed the right choice."

Mei Shen was in such a good mood that she couldn't help but smile.

Boffman opened his mouth slightly and stared straight at Freya with his eyes, obviously captured by her beauty.

By the way, it’s the beauty of appearance.

After all, to deal with this kind of miscellaneous fish, Freya didn't need to use his divinity at all, he just knelt down under the skirt of the God of Beauty.

Fortunately, Freya wasn't too interested in Liu Zi, and maybe because she noticed Xiao Lin's stiffness and tense body, she didn't ask for it or study it.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

If the other party is really interested, Xiao Lin is not sure that he can escape the attack of [Beauty] with full firepower. That is [Beauty] that can make the gods fall for it!

Boffman, on the other hand, was very interested in Liu Zi. After learning that Liu Zi was a doll and Xiaolin's waiter, he actually proposed a transaction.

"Master Xiaolin, I wonder if you have any idea of ​​selling her."

"What?"

"5000W! I will pay you 5000W!"

"Sorry, I didn't..."

"8000... no, 100 million faries! This is my limit, Mr. Xiaolin, what do you think?!"

He was willing to spend 100 million to buy Liu Zi. Bovman's courage made Xiao Lin look slightly sideways.

But in Boffman's mind, he had another idea: This doll girl is so powerful that she can kill even giant worms that can easily capsize a ship in an instant. If she were left alone in this desert, Go wild without any hindrance! And most importantly, this doll is beautiful!

Don't get me wrong, he won't take action against Liu Zi, but treats the girl as a commodity.

It's beautiful, powerful, and incredibly lifelike. It's sure to fetch a big price!

pity.

"Sorry, I have no idea of ​​selling it."

"Is the money not enough? If it is money, I can add more! 150 million W! If it's 150 million francs, you...!"

"I said so!"

Before Boffman could finish speaking, Xiaolin interrupted forcefully. Taking a step forward, a body taller than Boffman blocked the sunlight, the shadow enveloped him, and a cold voice reached his ears.

"She is my proud waiter and my most trusted companion. I'm sorry, but I have no intention of selling."

"...Is that so? That's really a pity."

Boffman couldn't help but take a half step back and distance himself slightly.

He is really afraid.

"However." Xiao Lin suddenly pinched his chin and said, "I can still get some secondary dolls. Although they are not as good as Liu Zi, they are still a rare help."

"Really?! If Mr. Xiaolin can bring it, I, Boffman, am willing to share half of the profits with you! Please believe that the strongest businessman in this desert will not let you down! Duhehe——"

Boffman left with satisfaction.

"Don't look at him like this, Boffman is actually a very talented businessman." Freya said.

"I know." Xiao Lin said: "Businessmen are afraid that there will be no profit or too little profit. Once there is an appropriate profit, they will be bold. If there is a profit of 20%, the businessman will be ready to take action; if there is a profit of 50%, the businessman will take risks; if there is a profit of 50%, the businessman will take risks; If the profit is ten times the profit, businessmen will dare to trample all human laws; and if the profit is ten times the profit, they will even sell the reins to hang themselves!”

"...I was really shocked. I didn't expect you to say such philosophical words. If it were Hermes, he would definitely let you join the Familia. After all, even though he is the God of Commerce, he is also the God of Travelers. You fit in perfectly." Freya said suddenly.

Kobayashi shook his head and said seriously: "What I said just now was said by someone else, but I just borrowed it. Besides, I already have a god to serve, so I will not join the family of other gods. I am sorry that I cannot respond to your expectations."

He was emphasizing and making it clear.

Freya was not angry. She had no strange thoughts about Kobayashi. She said that just now because she felt that Kobayashi and Hermes were very compatible. Since Kobayashi was unwilling, she would not force him. But if it was someone she liked, that would be another matter.

"But I didn't expect that you were not angry about Bofuman's rudeness just now."

"You should be happy to see the value of Ryuko. Of course, the premise is that he doesn't continue to make trouble."

"Indeed. He can see things clearly. It seems that he is indeed a talented businessman."

"...Except for that unflattering laugh."

"You are right."

Freya and Kobayashi smiled at the same time.

But the next second, eight auras locked onto him again, and the threat was self-evident. Xiao Lin's smile froze and then slowly disappeared.

Tsk.

It seems that the charm released by the goddess inadvertently is also very powerful. Even he can't resist it. He actually forgot that there are eight extremely jealous dogs around him.

"I didn't expect there would be such a realistic puppet."

"Compared to the puppet, I am more curious about the ship that can sail in the sand sea. What is its power and why it can push away the sand and sail in the desert, I am very curious."

"Now that you mention it, I am also curious."

Freya called Bofuman in the distance and asked him to explain.

"- It relies on magic to operate!" Bofuman was slightly proud and pointed to the bottom of the deck and explained: "There are thirty slaves at the bottom of the cabin, and they provide endless magic to make the ship generate power."

And there are multiple crystal balls at the bottom of the cabin. When people put their hands on them, they can inject magic.

Unlike ships that are driven by oars, this is a real magic ship.

"Slaves? Is your Chamber of Commerce using slaves again?" The goddess was focusing on another point.

"Rather than me, the entire Kaios Desert Circle does this, after all, slavery is recognized here." Bofuman answered very cautiously, because he was not sure whether Freya, who lived in Orario, cared about slavery.

In order to make Orario the cradle of heroes, the gods were very opposed to improper laws.

But Freya just nodded slightly.

Although she was a god, she did not mean to criticize this act as inhumane. Because she had seen too much, the slave culture was deeply rooted in the underworld.

Kobayashi had the same idea.

Whether it was "Akagi Kill" or "Clock Girl", there were slaves, even the cheerful "Soharu" was no exception, so she just made a commonplace expression and kept silent.

"Slaves..." After a brief thought, Freya said, "There must be a place with the most children nearby, so it is likely that there are more slaves. In that case, let's go and take a look."

"As you wish, my goddess."

Bofman urged the ship to sail towards the town with the most slaves in the distance.
