Tong Li felt that the world could not be better.

Jiaotu looked at Tongli, who was covered in pink bubbles, and after watching the two great gods leave, he looked at the string with the trident hanging around Tongli's neck.

It was the first time to see a person who was so happy to be surrounded by others, and Jiaotu felt that even if he liked it, it was too much.

What if it gets ripped off.

Of course, he would not say this kind of thinking to hurt Tong Li at this time, after all, everyone has their own ideas, and no one needs to force anyone to agree with him.

Jiaotu, who had never experienced this kind of emotion, felt that he was not qualified to intervene, so he ran to the pool with short legs and jumped in.

The splash of water awakened Tong Li who was in a daze.

On a dark, moonless night, a light blue mermaid sits quietly by the water, his scales emit a faint light, and his light blue fluorescent tail fin floats gently with the current.

The picture is quiet and soft.

"Wake up soon." Jiao Tu waved his little meaty claws, "Get out of it."

Tong Li was grinning, flicking his tail happily, splashing the water, "Hey, I woke up."

They were also hung around their necks by conscious things, but if it was Tartarus, Tong Li immediately felt that he could accept it.

Sure enough, it is still a question of objects.

"That's right." Tong Li jumped into the water, and a conch appeared in his hand, shaking it in front of Jiaotu's eyes, "Look, the conch I told you before is called Pallas!"

Jiaotu glanced at the conch, "Your daughter?"

"Yeah!" Tong Li touched it, "I didn't expect to be picked up by the captain. I was planning to go back to the temple of myself and Father God to find it when I remembered."

Of course, there is also a great possibility that they will not be found. After all, unless they are quite awesome gods, at the end of the era of mythology, many of them were involved in the gaps in time and space that collapsed at the twilight of the gods.

Tong Li thought it was great that her conch survived the disaster!

"Captain?" Jiao Tu lazily bowed twice in the shell, "Have you gone to see that human?"

Tong Li nodded and smiled happily, "I feel like I have let go of a big burden in my heart."

"He picked up this conch?" Jiaotu opened his half-closed eyes, "Huh...?"

Tong Li was reminded and was taken aback.

"That's right..." Tong Li looked down at the conch in his hand.

Even if there is no aura, such things as artifacts are not something that anyone can pick up.

Generally speaking, apart from the fact that artifacts become extremely dazzling when held by the gods who are their masters, when they lose the support of their masters or receive corresponding orders, the artifacts will actually lower themselves in a low-key manner. presence.

For example, the trident on Tongli's neck is as quiet as a real pendant.

As for the sealed ones that I saw before, since there are all colleagues around, of course I tear them up as a respect!

Therefore, it is basically impossible for ordinary people to notice the artifact, unless the artifact shows its existence unwillingly.

Obviously, it is impossible for the conch, which has lost its aura with the death of Pallas.

Jiaotu and Tongli looked at each other.

"I didn't find anything wrong with Captain Jiang..." Tong Li muttered, "He looks like an ordinary person."

"That's what it looks like!" Jiaotu poked at him, "But since I didn't mean anything to you and sent you something back, you can keep it."

Tong Li still felt that Captain Jiang should be an ordinary person, otherwise he should have exposed him directly in the first period when he grew a fish tail.

And if the identity is really special, there is no need to go out of the sanatorium and squat down to block people. It only needs a teleport to arrest people directly.

Thinking about it this way, there is still a high possibility that Captain Jiang is an ordinary person. Maybe he is a special one among ordinary humans?

Jiao Tu didn't care about Tong Li's dazed face, and dragged Tong Li to the bottom of the corpse lake.

Tong Li touched the conch in his hand, put it next to the pillow, and turned over on the huge shell bed.

This bed is provided by Jiaotu Friendly Refining, and it is very comfortable to sleep on.

The trident hanging around his neck slid between his necks as he turned over. Tong Li touched the string attached to his neck, and couldn't help but put on a silly smile again.

Even the darkness of sleep is sweet.

At the bottom of the dark water, the conch next to Tong Li's pillow had a tiny ray of blue fluorescence, which flickered with the flow of the water waves and the breathing of the mermaid beside it, like stars at night.

The aura and power in the water seemed to be drawn by something, and it gently followed the water waves that slowly changed its direction, rushing towards the huge clam shell at the bottom of the water.

Jiaotu, who always spends his sleep time on meditation, opened his eyes, looked at the clam shell that was several times bigger than him next to him, and looked at the twinkling conch shells on Tongli's pillow. Tong Li rubbed spiritual energy in his clam shell.

A good night's sleep.

Tong Li didn't have a dream, and when he woke up he was surprisingly in good spirits.

"I seem to remember a lot... about divine power." Tong Li said, controlling the water flow and the toothbrush, grinning and looking at the self-moving toothbrush in the mirror with a little novelty.

"Isn't it normal when you think about it?" Jiaotu had enough spiritual energy last night, and he is also full of energy today, "After all, your companion artifact is back."

Companion artifacts are just like the talismans of the East, they are hard to come by.

For example, Athena's Spear of the Goddess of Victory, that thing was brought out from her mother's womb... oh no, from her father's womb, it is closely connected with her original origin, so it must be created by others later Artifacts are different.

The existence of inborn and natural nourishment, whether in the East or the West or from ancient times to the present, is purely natural.

This kind of thing is not available to every god.

Tong Li felt that he was also very lucky. Previously, his understanding of divine power was limited to the control of water flow. Now, he felt that all tangible things in the world could fall into his palm.

Now he finally understood why the gods looked down on humans so much.

After rinsing his mouth, Tong Li looked at the white and clean young man in the mirror and sighed. He brushed his hair twice.

Probably because of the rapid recovery of divine power, the hair color seems to be gradually approaching the deified self recently, and the facial contour has also changed a lot.

Tong Li felt that if it weren't for the people who get along with him day and night to see him, there are eight out of ten.Nine couldn't recognize him.

The entire facial contour has changed a lot. Tong Li touches his face, it's almost like plastic surgery, and it's getting closer to the western appearance.

Compared with the face at the end of the entire mythological age, although it is very handsome, Tong Li still thinks that the oriental face he has held for 20 years is more beautiful ＿(: 3ゝ∠)＿

How fresh.

Out of a bunch of Greek gods, an oriental face suddenly appeared, and Tong Li felt that he must be the most eye-catching one following them out.

Because the painting style is different.

"What's for breakfast this morning!" Jiaotu asked.

Tong Ideal thought about it, "I want to eat something spicy."

Then, with the fish and clams, I ran out early in the morning and ate Chongqing noodles. After eating the spicy food, my mouth was red like red with gorgeous rouge.

Tong Li looked at the reflective glass on the side of the road, and felt that he could pretend to be a vampire who just had a meal with his dentures.

"Pixiu sent me a text message." Jiaotu took out the phone and handed it to Tong Li.

Now these unnatural beings have long been accustomed to using convenient means of human beings, and only occasionally use those abnormal ones for very secret matters.

After all, if humans find out that they are wrong, they will be punished.

Who made the current world far less durable than the ancient mythology period? The current world cannot withstand a fight between two slightly stronger characters.

If the space of this soft world is accidentally punctured, it will not be a small matter that can be easily solved.

Things that frequently tore through the universe and space in the prehistoric era of mythology have long since become memories.

"Look for a teahouse." Tong Li replied casually.

Jiaotu pouted and shook his head, "Let's find a coffee shop, I want to eat cake."

Tong Li patted him on the head, expressing that he had no objection.

"By the way, Jiaotu." Tong Li looked at Jiaotu and finished replying the message, "Do you know why we woke up?"

Jiao Tu was taken aback when he heard this, and continued to drag Tong Li forward for a walk, "Why do you ask that?"

"Isn't there a saying that 'whatever happens, there must be an effect'? Originally, we should all fall or sleep forever with the end of the mythical era, right?" Because of the return of the accompanying conch, many of the gods themselves have been awakened. Tong Li, who understands well, feels very puzzled.

Jiao Tu shrugged, "I don't know, maybe Patriarch Hongjun knows, the awakening has lasted for thousands of years."

"Thousands of years?" Tong Lian thought about the materials of various mythological ages of the gods that have been sent up one after another recently, "But I remember that there was a legend about the nine sons of the dragon in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."

"A few of us woke up at that time." Jiaotu recalled a little bit, "Jiazi and Taotie woke up quite early, and at that time, the kings of mankind would still worship the heavens and believe in Buddhism and religion. So those existences above are not strict with us."

Tong Li was taken aback, "Doesn't that mean that the development of human beings limits the power of the gods?"

This is not right.

If gods and humans co-exist in this world, it is impossible for humans not to worship gods.

Because everything in this world comes from gods.

Strictly speaking, including human beings, they were also created by gods.

Only the Creator has always worshiped the Creator, and there is no saying that the Creator limits the Creator.

"Not...clear?" Jiaotu was also a little confused by the question. He didn't like to think about these complicated things, and he didn't like to challenge the rules, and he felt that there was nothing wrong with the development of human beings.

Anyway, it doesn't affect him too much.

Tong Li looked at his palm with clear veins, a trace of black floated to his palm, and was directly crushed by his fist.

"And the recent sprites... are too many."

Once in the downtown area, when you look up, there are all dark sprites floating in mid-air. From time to time, sprites can be seen drilling into human bodies.

Not even the midday sun returning to the sky can make these sprites feel fear and pain.

Every time Tong Li went to the street, he felt that Dijun and Taiyi should fly around to kill bacteria.

After all, it is the sun.

"Because Luo Hu, who is a demon, escaped from control. It's under control." Jiaotu didn't care. It's not like he hasn't seen this scene before. In the era when the tyrants had no way and demons ran rampant, the scene was much more terrifying than it is now.

Rather than worrying about these things, Jiaotu wanted to hurry to a place to order a dessert.

Tong Li looked up at the black sky, thankfully he didn't have trypophobia.

If this is just the influence of a Rahu, this great power is too scary.

It's much better when I'm inside, especially in the coffee shop with soothing music, people's expressions look cozy and comfortable.

"I told Pixiu the place, and he said he'll be there soon." Jiaotu said cheerfully, putting his phone aside and concentrating on studying the menu.

Tong Li propped his face and looked out of the window, there were spooks and monsters all over the place, Tong Li wished that his eyes could not see these unnatural things.

It's just so depressing.

"The gods are awakened by humans."

Tong Li was taken aback, "Huh?"

Jiaotu looked up at him, his round eyes were full of doubts, "What's wrong?"

Tong Li was not sure: "I heard Mr. Tal's voice..."

Jiaotu glanced at the string around his neck, snorted softly, and continued to look at the menu without looking sideways.

Tong Li, who was awakened by his eyes, stretched out his hand to touch the dark brown rope around his neck, feeling his heart beating a little too fast.

Tartarus was sitting in the office, leaning against the back of the chair with his eyes closed.

Tong Li touched the rope: Mr. Tal?

"it's me."

Tong Li instantly felt that his scalp was about to explode.

"Humans remember the gods with stone inscriptions and words, and the names of the gods engraved on them cannot be forgotten by people, and they cannot fall into an eternal sleep where no one disturbs them."

Tong Li was stunned.

"The gods created human beings and destroyed them. Human beings worshiped the gods for favor and then forgot to respect and fear the gods."

This is a cycle of reincarnation.

It is precisely because of this cycle of reincarnation that human beings and gods are tightly bound together.

"The world is weak, and human beings remember the gods again. They call the names of the gods engraved on the stone tablets and inscriptions, and awaken the gods from eternal sleep and deep sleep."

"It even directly allows those who have been favored by heaven and earth to re-exist in the world."

Even if Tong Li doesn't remember much about the rules of heaven and earth, he can clearly know that the resurrection of the dead is against the harmony of heaven.

This is simply disrupting reincarnation.

Unless the soul becomes a god or ascends to do other things after death, it cannot return to the human world anyway.

If he could easily bring people back to life, he would have brought Paris out of Hades long ago.

To die is to die, even gods cannot disobey the rules of life and death, and those who forcibly disobey generally have no good end.

For example, Dijun and Taiyi, these two should have fallen in the prehistoric times, even if they had a lot of merit, it was useless, the words that they can come to the world again with great merit belong to the people below the donkey.

But these two woke up.

That must be what humans call their names.

No matter what form it is, as long as you believe that they exist, this is a calling for them who should have disappeared into the world.

Once he responded unbearably, he would definitely be pulled back to the Yang world.

This is something that every awakened god of the East and the West will experience, and it is not a secret.

It's just that most of them couldn't find out where the call came from, and most of them thought it was the existence of heaven, rules, etc., and after waking up, most of them were answered immediately. This kind of disciplinary organization is intimidating.

So now there are so many unnatural beings wandering around, most of which are made by human beings themselves.

If it weren't for the fact that the world can't stand the trouble now, if it weren't for the sensible people who woke up at the beginning, and if it wasn't for the witty and decisive giants of the East and the West, let alone the current world system, is the superficial world that humans live in now? It's not good to say it's complete.

Anyway, if the human beings are placed, the gods can still eat offerings, which is very good.

As long as they can live well, the gods are also very easy to talk about.

Of course, those villains whose brains have been abnormal since ancient times may not be so easy to talk about.

But is it okay to tell me all these directly, Mr. Tull?

"You'll know sooner or later."

After all, they are responsible for processing information, so in order to avoid communication barriers between each other, what should be said must be said.

Tong Li's strength is not collecting intelligence, but sorting out information and making some speculations through the obtained information, as well as his unique sensitivity to certain things.

As for why he didn't guess his identity before?

... Why bother to look up things that you will remember sooner or later.

It's not something that is particularly urgent and must be known immediately.

Jiaotu pushed the milk tea in front of Tong Li, knowing that Tong Li was talking to some great god who wasn't here, so he didn't say anything.

It wasn't until Pixiu was introduced by the waiter, and Jiaotu introduced the two of them with a spoon in his mouth, that he suddenly remembered that they seemed to be doing something bad.

Tong Li was lightly kicked by Jiaotu, and was stunned for a moment with the straw in his mouth.

The fish and the clam, who did not regard the God of the Abyss as an outsider at all, finally came back to their senses, and immediately looked at each other in blank dismay.

Pixiu looked at the two people who looked at each other silently, wondering: "...what's wrong?"

"It's okay." Tong Li cleared his throat, reached out to touch the rope around his neck, "tell me, how are you going to deal with Taotie's matter?"

Sitting in the office and seeing everything through divine power, Tartarus frowned.

Tong Li caressed the slightly restless string, and looked at Pixiu.

Jiaotu retracted his gaze, pretending to be particularly interested in the pattern of the marble tabletop.

"It's not that Taotie can't be controlled." Pi Xiu looked at Tong Li tentatively.

Tong Li nodded, expressing that he knew that, in fact, he had had Pixiu and Taotie under surveillance for two days.

At this time, I should be grateful for the working mechanism of Elysee and the gods of the underworld. The kind of small workplace struggles that skip the upper level and report directly to the immediate boss almost never happen.

As a person who occasionally crosses Hades to ask Tartarus for help or to report to work, Tong Li feels a little guilty.

The quietness of Taotie these two days made Tong Li fully realize that he could control Taotie, at least with Pixiu around, Taotie would not gnaw without scruples.

"But that's only you, you know, none of us can control it." Tong Li said.

"Then don't let him go out." Pixiu said, he put the stack of materials he prepared in front of Tongli, "This is my plan, Taotie's idea is actually very simple, as long as he has something to eat That's it."

He doesn't care what it is as long as he can eat it in big mouthfuls.

Therefore, it is impossible to bring Taotie to the tasting meeting. Those tasting items and products are impossible to satisfy Taotie's desire for food.

"Big eater?" Tong Li scanned the stack of documents in his hand with the speed of working in Elysee, and quickly extracted the key points.

His expression was a little subtle.

But think about it, it seems that it can really be handled like this.

After all, Taotie... is really not picky about food.

Oh, except that I prefer meat.

But things like eating and broadcasting... Tong Li still has some understanding of today's extensive news, this emerging live broadcast industry... er, Tong Li still doesn't get the point.

But to be honest, it is indeed a very suitable job for Taotie.

Anyway, you just need to let him eat under the camera, don't let him eat it with a plate or something.

The most important thing is that things like live broadcasts are based on faces, and Taotie has a good face, which is especially in line with the aesthetics of today's people.

"I think this is very feasible." Pai Yao acted sincerely, "I think you are willing to meet me, but you actually have a different idea from those great gods..."

Tong Li frowned and interrupted him: "You can't talk nonsense, Pixiu."

Pixiu immediately shut his mouth.

Such provocative words made both Tong Li and Tartarus frown. Tong Li slowly flipped through the documents in his hand, and closed them gently after a long while.

Pixiu and Jiaotu looked at him in unison.

"I'll try my best." Tong Li nodded to him, and shifted his gaze to Jiaotu.

"I'll stay and talk to Pixiu." Jiaotu said in a soft, milky voice.

Tong Li couldn't resist this kind of cuteness, so he lost directly.

"You shouldn't do this, Tong Li." The male god's voice sounded a little harsh.

Tong Li paused and pursed his lips: But I think it would be much better to give those gods and monsters who are still in Tartarus a new path than locking them up.

The male god did not speak and remained silent.

But Tong Li is already very contented, which is much better than the previous way of getting along with each other based on guesswork, probably because of the direct spiritual communication without having to speak?

Even the words of the male god have changed.

Tong Li pinched the sprites that came over along the way, thinking: If I can let them know that getting along well with others is also possible to leave Tartarus and return to the world, I think they will be much more stable.

"There's no guarantee they'll be safe."

But that's better than them trying to figure out how to escape all the time, besides, isn't Taotie an example that can be used as a reference?

"You can't convince other great gods."

Tong Li touched the dark brown string around his neck, and immediately smiled flatteringly.

Tartarus: ...

Unexpectedly, this mermaid actually asked him to help persuade other great gods.

Mr. Tull, if those existences are not so noisy, can you leave for a while?

Tartarus was slightly taken aback.

Tong Li withdrew the smile on his face and lowered his eyes.

I want to walk through this fragile but colorful world with you, and I want to be with you, not just through this tiny rope.

After a while, a soft sigh came from there.

"it is good."

Tong Li lowered his head and hugged the file bag Pixiu gave him in his arms, covering most of his face below his eyes, but his blood-stained ears still betrayed his current mood.
