At the same time, all the sculptures in the Pantheon lit up!

The entire Pantheon was as bright as day.

"What have you done!" Qiao Yu frowned.

"Nothing, aren't those people eager to get a response from the gods? I just let them all get the inheritance of the gods."

Hermes smiled, then looked up at the statues in the Pantheon.

"These sculptures, to be precise, are also gods. They were all my former generals, each of them extremely brave."

"I should have told you, right? Gods will not die, because as long as the Law Godfire is completely ignited, the divine mind will sublimate into a godhead. If the godhead is not destroyed, the gods are immortal."

Hermes gently shook the coffee in his hand.

"So...what they got...wasn't the inheritance of the gods. Once they accept the inheritance, they are equivalent to becoming a container to be seized!"

Qiao Yu's head buzzed, and some previous doubts suddenly became clear.

"So, the so-called God's representatives on earth are actually poor worms seized by the gods!"

Qiao Yu was terrified by the thought, and then his face became extremely ugly. In this way, Shen Jianshu and the others were equivalent to becoming puppets at the mercy of the gods.

"Are you trying to threaten me with their lives?"

"Very smart." Hermes glanced at Qiao Yu. "Now, with just a thought from me, those people outside will become my generals' representatives on earth in this new era."

Then Hermes smiled and glanced at Qiao Yu's ugly face.

"Also, don't try to fight me. That old phoenix hidden in your Undead Space isn't even a first-order god, at most half a god."

Qiao Yu's face became uncertain. He had just had this thought when Hermes saw through it directly.

"So... what exactly do you want?" Qiao Yu took a deep breath to calm his mind.

"Don't worry, these people are just my bargaining chips, I won't kill them. On the contrary, I will help you step into the peak of the Pseudo-God Realm, and I will help that little fatty comprehend the Five Elements Laws as much as possible. As for that Ma Fei, I will send him to challenge the Seventy-Two Demon Gods of Solomon."

"If you enter the Underworld, Death Thanatos and Sleep Hypnos are not easy to deal with, you need two helpers."

Qiao Yu just listened quietly to Hermes's narration without speaking.

He knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

Eating is either Dutch treat or AB system.

Sure enough, the next second, Hermes continued.

"And what I want you to do is actually not difficult."

Hermes drank the coffee in his cup, and then his face became crazy.

"I want you...to kill Hades, and personally cut off Hades's head and bring it to me!"

Qiao Yu's pupils shrank suddenly, unable to hide the shock on his face.

Kill Hades, cut off... Hades's head?

Just listening to these words made Qiao Yu feel a chill. How was this any different from courting death?

After speaking, Hermes's expression slowly returned to calm, and he became that gentle and refined appearance again.

"Didn't you say that gods are immortal? How could I possibly kill Hades?" Qiao Yu asked, staring at Hermes.

"Gods are immortal because they hide their real bodies and only appear by borrowing the bodies of others. As long as you find the true body of the god, you can completely kill the god."

Hermes began to grind coffee again, as if he was talking to himself.

"And Hades's true body is in the Underworld! Although I don't know what Laws Qiao Anqing is going to have you comprehend in order to step into the God Realm, that kind of Law will definitely not be simple. You should be able to kill Hades."

"Even if I really step into the God Realm, how could I possibly be Hades's opponent? After all, Hades has achieved the True God Realm for so long, his understanding of the Laws should be much stronger than mine." Qiao Yu narrowed his eyes.

"You seem to have some misunderstanding about the True God Realm."

Hermes looked up and smiled, explaining to Qiao Yu.

"Igniting the Law Godfire allows you to achieve the God Realm, that's right, but the True God Realm is divided into first-order gods, second-order gods, all the way up to ninth-order gods. The highest realm of the True God Realm is the Supreme God Realm."

"The combat power of the Supreme God Realm is enough to rival the Twelve Main Gods, but the realm of the True God Realm is not upgraded by leveling up. The moment you ignite the Law Godfire, it is already destined what level of god you are."

"For example, if you ignite the Law Godfire with the most basic Fire Law and achieve a first-order god, then you will always be a first-order god."

Hermes stared at Qiao Yu with a non-smiling expression, as if he wanted to see through him completely.

"With my understanding of that madman Qiao Anqing, as long as you ignite the Law Godfire, you will definitely be at the Supreme God Realm."

A look of contemplation appeared in Qiao Yu's eyes, and the emotions in his eyes were also changing.

What Hermes said was too shocking for him.

"Actually, you guessed it yourself, didn't you? Qiao Yu, you are not a King of Hell inheritor at all, you are just a poor container chosen by Hades."

"Why do you think Hades would help you so wholeheartedly? Isn't it because you are the new body he chose in this era?"

Hermes's words were full of bewitchment.

"As far as I know, your little girlfriend is still locked up in the Underworld, right? Cooperate with me to kill King of Hell Hades, and I will let those people outside go. You happily get your beauty back, which is beneficial to you in every way, isn't it?"

Qiao Yu and Hermes's eyes met, and there was a trace of inexplicable meaning in their eyes.

"If I can really kill King of Hell Hades, then I should be able to kill you too, right? Aren't you afraid that I will kill you too when I come back from the Underworld?" Qiao Yu asked.

"Not afraid." The smile on Hermes's face was still gentle. "First, you can't find the location of my true body; second, I am alone, you have relatives, teachers, and loved ones, you have too many weaknesses."

Qiao Yu was silent.

What Hermes said was true, he couldn't ignore Shen Jianshu and the others.

Seeing the silent Qiao Yu, Hermes did not urge him, but quietly tasted his hand-ground coffee, and even hummed a little tune very leisurely. No one knew what he was thinking.

"If you need time to consider, you can think it over clearly before coming to Kaiji Star to find me," Hermes said softly.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Qiao Yu took the initiative to extend his hand and smiled kindly.

"No need, I've thought it over, I wish us a happy cooperation!"
