"Coolness is also part of power." Helios was in a good mood. He even had time to joke with Shangluo. "Temporary power is nothing more than a mayfly in her hands. It can be used to its fullest extent in the hands of the right person." effect."
"So." After a pause, he asked, "Mr. Helios, have you ever regretted it? Although 'people' are the most precious, is it really worth it?"
"For me, it's not worth it. But when it comes to Phaethon, you will also know it after you have children."
Halfway through his words, he suddenly froze: "Ah, I almost forgot. You inherited the power of the Hunting God, didn't you? Boy, I'm afraid you will regret having a child. The fate of Phaethon , you also saw it, right? The fate of the Olympus Protoss is unavoidable."
[Eh~~ The bad guy is warning you not to attack Phaethon, otherwise you will bear the consequences. 】
"Afraid. Afraid."
"It seems like my ears are a little itchy. In short, everything is your freedom, you can handle it yourself. I am an enlightened father."
[Ha, this guy’s temper has never changed. It's fair, but in fact it doesn't give you a choice at all. 】
"That's it, I'll hang up now, I have something else to do."
"Wait a minute, Mr. Helios. I have another question - are you okay?"
"Why do I hear that you and my sister have learned some tricks of talking. Tsk, I'm very well. Let Phaethon rest assured and let her take care of herself. And Apollonia, take care of yourself. What else can I say? It’s Shangluo.”
He called Shangluo's name and became more solemn.
"Yes, I'm listening."
"Don't tell Phaethon what you just said, just let him know that he is safe. Human identity and human destiny are all too heavy. She has never rested since she grew up to this age. She is too tired. Please supervise her for me and let her rest for a while. This is my merciless request. Well, that's it, goodbye, hang up."
[Du~Du~Du~] Apollonia's mood improved a lot.
"I asked, is he really okay?" Shangluo put down the phone, "He hung up in a hurry and was making us happy, but I thought there might be something wrong. What's the worst case scenario?"
【Death. His heart, his 'immortality' as a god is already in your hands, and the worst case scenario is death. Of course. I also have confidence in him. He has his own daughter here, and he also wants to take a good look at his relatives. Therefore, he will not die easily and will definitely find a way to seek help. What will you do then? 】
"I will help him when the overall situation is okay. Your brother is a decent man and he will give you a suitable price."
[Do you still want to eat two fish for one fish? After eating your daughter, you also want to take his father away with you? 】
"Tsk, these two things. What I mean is that by then we should be able to use elixirs to save emergencies, and elixirs to save gods should be able to be made - if not, let's talk about it. After this incident, I think Helios is indeed He is a trustworthy person. But in the final deal, I am still looking forward to Phaethon’s future. If I am not wrong, her body given by the Tao Ancestor will not be that simple.”
[So Daozu sent her to you. Well Helios said he wanted Phaethon to take some time off. 】
"Then let her take a vacation first. But although power is just a mayfly to her, she is still quite disappointed when she loses it all of a sudden. Well, for the sake of her mental health, find her a job. Although it is work , but it is also a rare holiday for her who has been fighting at the forefront. This is called 'relaxation and relaxation'. Well, I am such a good person~~"
"how's it going?"
When she came back, Phaethon was sitting there. She did not flip through the mail-order catalog on the table. She wasn't in the mood to eat until she got news from her father.
"Very good. Your father is in good condition. He is still joking with me. Don't worry about his health. Well, he seems to have calmed down."
"What did he say about me?"
"Your father said, well, he is a little disappointed in you, but not completely disappointed. He hopes that you will cultivate yourself well and then go back to resume your life. During this time, you can rest here first."
Shangluo did not convey exactly what Helios said, but chose a more credible statement. After all, if he directly told her to take a "vacation", she might think that she was exiled.
This is not a random guess. Based on the experience of dealing with him these few times, Shangluo thinks that she will most likely think so.
Therefore, a more appropriate reason is to "recharge your batteries and prepare for returning to the front line in the future." Treating rest as a task should make it easier for her to accept.
"Okay." Phaethon leaned back and sank into the sofa. The tight strings that had been tightened finally relaxed a little. "Then I will take good care of myself."
"I asked you to choose dinner, did you choose it?"
"Um, no. Is it too late now?"
Shangluo glanced at the clock, it was already half past seven.
"Oh, forget it, let's go out to eat."
He turned on his phone and found the group "All Hungry People in the Forever Slim Palace", which was a group for dinner appointments. Last time Fu Yuanshan took him to dinner, he also asked him to join the group.
He first confirmed whether Fu Yuanshan had a meal tonight.
"Well, he's not free tonight. That's fine."
After confirming that Fu Yuanshan would not disturb him, he sent a letter asking him:
"Senior Fu, do you have any recommendations for a place to have dinner?"
"Okay, that's it." He got a list from Fu Yuanshan and handed the phone to Phaethon.
"I'm the host, so you choose a restaurant. What do you want to eat?"
"Do you have any plans for tomorrow?" Phaethon asked the time. "If you have plans, we can't go too far."
"Don't talk about it tomorrow, it's really important."
After all the things that must be done after establishing the foundation to become a heavenly being are completed, the next step is your own business.
Experiencing more things and gaining more information made him more "smart and sharp", enough to cope with the next important choice - choosing the path of cultivation. Although I first went to Wudang Mountain to find Master Zhang to lay the foundation, it was impossible for Master Zhang to teach everything. Do you want to continue learning swordsmanship? Or do you study other schools as well? This is all something to consider. But the more experience you have, the more thoughtful you will be.
Shangluo will discuss future plans with Daozu when he meets with him tomorrow when he returns to life.
"It's better not to be too far away. The grandfather and grandson of that family have the habit of making serial phone calls in the middle of the night. They might suddenly ask me to come over in the middle of the night."
"In that case." Phaethon looked at the words on the phone, "Let's take the one at the door. What is this 'state-owned store'?"
"Huh? Do you still recommend this?" Shangluo glanced at it and saw that it was indeed the state-owned store at the door. There was a note at the back saying that there was a full range of roasted melon seeds, as well as dried meat, meat paper, fish fillets and other snacks. And...there are also a lot of instant noodles.
"This is not a restaurant, it sells snacks. Are you sure you want to go here? Today is also your birthday. Let's eat instant noodles here? Okay, you take the shopping bag, and we will go buy some goods. This is your own It’s your choice, it’s not that I won’t treat you to food.”
