The dining table was filled with all kinds of food that suited Xiao Zhimiao's taste. They were all fresh, salty and spicy, and there was no sweet food or drink.
Xiao Zhimiao had been hungry for two days, so she started eating. Xu Zhilan sat next to her and didn't speak, just silently cutting steak and roast chicken for her.
Carter sat on her right, drinking wine, and poured her a glass, "It's not sweet wine, try it?"
Xiao Zhimiao saw that he seemed to be persistent in letting her drink. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Well... the wine was quite fragrant, but she didn't like it much, just like she did other things. Things are the same, there is a point where enough is enough.
Adisang couldn't change back to human form, so he just flew to the table and swallowed the food in big gulps. He had already become a god. Eating was not necessary for him, but he still had an appetite. He usually could eat basically anything. Eat, in addition to normal food, those gold, silver and jewelry are also one of His recipes.
After Xiao Zhimiao had almost eaten, he finally had time to focus on Xu Zhilan. The Xu Zhilan in front of him was indeed the real thing.
She wanted to ask him what was wrong. He was obviously worried about something in his current state, but she wanted him to tell him more.
Normally, he would be deliberately hypocritical, just to get more attention from her, and occasionally make jokes and make a few remarks to spice things up.
Such silence had never happened before, and she felt it was very new. He would not hide things in his heart, at least not in front of her. No matter what it was, he would say it immediately.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at him for a while without asking him.
After eating, she sat in front of the fireplace and read the magic book that Zhenxing had bought.
Every time she entered the dungeon, she treated it as if she was at work. When she came out of the dungeon, she had to give herself a few days off to have a good rest, especially since she had just killed a god not long ago and the injuries on her body were not healed, so she didn't want to move. , put other things aside for the time being.
Take a good rest when you can. Maybe from now on, such comfortable days will no longer exist. She enjoys such peaceful and peaceful days. .
It started to rain again outside the wooden house. The fire in the fireplace was burning brightly, driving away all the moisture. Firestones were also placed in other corners to keep the house dry.
Carter held the book and read for a while, then fell down on the sofa and fell asleep. Xiao Zhimiao found that since he had a human body, he especially liked to sleep, or he could easily get sleepy.
Adisang lay on her lap and kept nuzzling into her arms. After being patted twice on the head by her, he became more obedient. After Zhenxing washed the dishes and chopsticks quickly, he also lay on her lap. He curled up into a ball and slept there.
Xu Zhilan sat down next to her, looked at her bandaged hand, reached out to touch it, and then took it back.
Xiao Zhimiao glanced at him and continued to focus on the book.
No one spoke, and the only sound in the living room was the sound of Xiao Zhimiao turning the pages of a book and the crackle of burning firewood.
After a while, Xiao Zhimiao heard Xu Zhilan's voice in his ear, "I want to become a god, and I will go to the temple to serve."
Xiao Zhimiao stopped turning the book and turned to look at him, "Do you know what the conditions are for becoming a god?"
Xu Zhilan opened his palm in front of her, revealing a glowing mark, which was the mark of a demigod. Xu Zhilan already possessed a god-level skill, but he had not chosen to become a subordinate of any god before, so he could not be certified as a demigod.
When he obtains god-level skills, Xu Zhilan will have a choice in the system interface. Choose to serve a god and obtain the demigod certification. Without this certification, he will not be able to move forward further, nor can he rely on the power of the god. Without the addition of a layer of divine ff, one's own abilities will be greatly reduced.
When possessing sub-god-level skills, players can already choose to become the subordinate of one of the gods. Xu Zhilan does not believe in any gods and has never made a choice.
After coming out of the dragon's lair, Xu Zhilan lost the news of Xiao Zhimiao, which made him anxious. He didn't dare to go away and couldn't find it, so he could only wait there. After sensing her breath again, he looked at her list of friends.
I ran towards the wooden house where I was.
When he saw her covered in blood and unconscious, he only felt his heart grow cold, and those angry and manic emotions were covered by a sense of powerlessness.
In the previous dungeons that Xiao Zhimiao entered, she could recover immediately from any strong monster or serious injury, and she had never shown how weak she was. In his impression, she seemed to never fall down. She stood firm and upright like a high wall, giving people an incomparable sense of security.
But after the last time he transformed into a god in the real world, was trapped by Shenwuji's props in order not to expose his identity, and was shot with an arrow later, he realized how weak he was next to Xiao Zhimiao.
He couldn't even appear by her side at the right time to give her some help when she was in danger. He could only wander around like a headless fly, venting his incompetent rage.
Xiao Zhimiao's words always appeared in his ears: "Xu Zhilan, you are too weak."
Even though he already possesses god-level skills and is at the top of the game, he is still too weak next to Xiao Zhimiao compared with her relatives.
This feeling made him very uneasy. There were more and more people around her, and each one was very powerful. He was worried that Xiao Zhimiao would face those gods and could not guarantee her safety, and he was worried about himself. Will be abandoned, Xiao Zhimiao will not keep useless people around him.
He must be stronger, no matter what the cost!
"No player can become a god yet." Xu Zhilan looked at Xiao Zhimiao and said: "The highest level a player can reach is demigod. The system cannot provide any conditions for becoming a god."
He only knows how to become a demigod, to become a dependent of a god and to serve that god.
Now he can only become a demigod first before he can slowly figure out how to become a true god.
Now the gods around Xiao Zhimiao, including Xiao Zhimiao himself, are all creatures of the land where gods come, and are different from players.
Therefore, he is not sure whether he can become a god. Even the gods in this world have restrictions. He is worried that the system or the gods in this world will not allow players in the real world to become gods.
Originally this was God's game, but as long as there was a slight chance, he would not let it go.
Xiao Zhimiao looked at Xu Zhilan's firm eyes and said, "Xu Zhilan, becoming a god is not as easy as you think. Of course, it is not as difficult as you think. As long as you want it, you can become a god now."
Xu Zhilan's eyes trembled, with a hint of urgency in his eyes, "What conditions are needed?"
Her eyes fell on the mark in his hand, a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes, and she did not answer him again.
Hearing that Xu Zhilan wanted to become a god, both Carter and Adisang opened their eyes and looked at him. Adisang rolled his belly on Xiao Zhimiao's lap and said casually: "You want to become a god, and now the god is here." The most indispensable thing on earth is gods, and the divine positions are all full. Oh no, there is one missing Bazel now, but this divine position of Bazel is not your turn. Before he became a god, he was an assassin."
After hearing this, Xu Zhilan quickly understood: "Does this mean that there can only be one god for each profession?"
Adisang gave him a look as an answer.
Xiao Zhimiao felt Xu Zhilan's mood swings, lay down on the sofa, and continued to read the magic books in his hands. Several others also closed their eyes and went to sleep again. They only had a slight reaction to Xu Zhilan's words about becoming a god, but they did not not give a damn about.
People like Carter who have given up their position as gods are even less concerned.
Adisang obtained this divine position entirely by relying on his special identity and innate ability. He is a born strong man. He cannot fully understand the mentality of an ordinary person like Xu Zhilan who rises to the divine position step by step. For him, , Xu Zhilan is essentially not much different from those gods, because those gods were just like him before they ascended to the status of gods, they were ordinary people.
Those gods were afraid of him, and regarded him as a beast and looked down upon him. Adisang also looked down upon them. Except for Xiao Zhimiao, no god could fall into his eyes. If it were not for the restrictions of the rules, these so-called gods would all Can be completely burned by His original fire.
When Xu Zhilan saw that Xiao Zhimiao didn't say anything, a bunch of words in her heart were suddenly blocked.
Unable to vent, he could only look at her helplessly.
"Little cicada..."
Xiao Zhimiao said "hmm" without raising her head.
"you......"
Xu Zhilan stopped talking, opened his mouth and said, "Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Xiao Zhimiao followed the spell seals on the magic book with his fingers, "I thought you had something to say to me, is this all?"
Xu Zhilan: "I...I'm sorry..."
Xiao Zhimiao looked up at him and asked, "Why do you need to apologize?"
Xu Zhilan clenched his hands into fists and whispered: "You are right, I am really too weak."
"So this is all you do?"
Xu Zhilan was slightly startled when he heard Xiao Zhimiao's tone, and nodded blankly.
He felt that Xiao Zhimiao's tone was a little cold, as if he had done something wrong.
Carter, who had been sleeping next to him with his eyes closed, laughed and said, "You are so smart."
Xiao Zhimiao rubbed his fingers on the book for a while, and thought carefully about what he wanted to say to Xu Zhilan before putting the book down, looking directly at him and saying: "There is a god in front of you, why do you go to the temple to serve other gods? I don’t blame you for not knowing some inside information, but Xu Zhilan, don’t forget that you bound your soul to me, and I gave you enough freedom, but that doesn’t mean you are free. You are my dependent, and you are not doing anything. Before making a decision, you have to ask me first, unless I am already dead."
Xu Zhilan glanced at the glowing curse seal in his hand and explained, "Only when I am certified as a demigod can I gain the power of a demigod."
