"What do I have to do to get your help?" Zhang Heng asked.
"It's useless no matter what you do," Isis said. "Unfortunately, you don't have what I need. I don't know what the little succubus told you. If we were in Egypt two thousand years ago, helping you might be a piece of cake for me. But now, I have to pay a high price for such a treatment. Besides, it will affect the income of my health club. Do you know how much money I earn in a day now? "
"I can help you make up for the money," Zhang Heng said.
Anyway, the financing for the health tea had already begun. It was similar to Isis's health club, but under Han Lu's management, Isis's health club could never catch up to Isis in terms of earning points. However, Isis shook her head when she heard what Zhang Heng said. "Money is indeed a good thing.
However, Isis shook her head when she heard that. "Money is indeed a good thing. In today's society, no matter what you do, you can't do without money. Otherwise, I wouldn't have opened a health club. But as I said, it's not just a matter of money. Treating your friend will consume my divine power. You should have heard about the current situation. The relationship between the new and old gods is unprecedentedly tense, and war is imminent. At this time, everyone is trying to improve their own strength. Who would be willing to divide their divine power to treat an unrelated mortal? Let alone me, even if you find other gods who have the ability to save your friend, they won't help you either. There's an old saying in China, no matter how good money is, you have to be alive to spend it."
"Just tell me what you want from me. Lowering the price is just a waste of time for both of us." Zhang Heng did not show any signs of panic or disappointment when he heard what she said. Instead, he went straight to the point. "If you really won't help me no matter what I do, then you don't have to come to see me, let alone ask your maid to send Trista away."
"Hasn't anyone told you that people who are too smart will lose a lot of fun in life?" Isis said. She walked around Zhang Heng, her fingertips running across Zhang Heng's chest.
"Tsk tsk, are you the one who killed the White Knight with this body? Although your muscles are good, it doesn't feel as explosive as I imagined. Do you know what the other gods call you? "
"What's your name?"
"They call you the Godslayer. This is the highest evaluation a mortal can receive. With the body of a human, you killed a high and mighty god, and a powerful existence like the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. This is a miracle of the new era. In addition, there are rumors that Loki's disappearance is also related to you. You really are a restless man."
"I have nothing to do with Loki's disappearance." Zhang Heng denied it without hesitation. He had enough troubles recently, and there was no reason to attract the attention of the Norse gods.
"Relax, I'm not here to hold you accountable. I just … want to see with my own eyes if you're the person I'm looking for. After all, if you're the wrong person, even I'll be troubled," Isis said.
"Who do you want me to kill for you?" Heng frowned.
"You're so smart. You should have guessed his name, right?" Iciz retracted her hand and the joking expression on her face.
"Seth?" Zhang Heng spat out a name. "You want me to help you kill Seth, the God of Chaos?"
"I have no choice. As a younger brother, I can't let my sister rest easy. He killed my husband for the throne, dismembered his body, and threw his body everywhere. After that, he sent someone to kill me, an orphan and a widow. He wanted to cut the weeds and eliminate the roots. It really hurt my heart."
"But didn't you help your son kill him after that?"
"That's the problem," Isis said. "Do you think I really like to hide in this kind of deep forest and open a health club? Even when I recruit believers, I have to be careful. I'm afraid that my whereabouts will be exposed, and that guy will come to me. And it's fine if it's just me, but my son Horus. He took back the throne from Seth, and he became a mortal enemy of Seth. Based on my understanding of Seth, he will never give up the idea of revenge. So every day he wanders outside, my son and I will be in danger.
"Not to mention, he has been particularly active recently. And he has changed his previous style of doing things as he pleases. He has learned to plan. The recent conflict between the new and old gods has his shadow behind it. He has lit a fire, and now there's only one question left — where does he plan to burn this fire?" Isis said.
"I don't want to passively wait for the answer to be announced. If the fire really burns me and my son, everything will be too late. Instead of sitting here and waiting for death, it's better to take the initiative." At this point, a ruthless glint flashed in Isis's eyes. "You help me kill Seth and remove my biggest threat. Naturally, I will not be stingy with my divine power anymore. I will help heal your friend. What do you think? It's a fair deal, isn't it?"
Without waiting for Zhang Heng to answer, Isis added, "Don't worry. Seth is no longer as strong as he was back then. In terms of strength alone, he is at most second-rate or third-rate. He can't be compared to the White Horse Knight that you killed. Since you can kill the White Horse Knight, you should be able to kill him too. I will not let you die. Otherwise, your mission will fail, and my identity will be exposed."
Zhang Heng did not agree immediately. Instead, he said, "I heard that Seth has surrendered to the organizing committee. Since he is already under their control, why do you have to do this?"
"The news you got is outdated. About two hours ago, Thor rushed into the place where Seth was imprisoned and rescued him."
"Thor rescued Seth?" Zhang Heng was also a little surprised. In his impression, the two of them didn't seem to have any kind of friendship.
"The organizing committee can't figure it out, but according to the surveillance video and the report of the two new gods on duty that night, it was indeed Thor who rescued Seth. This incident has completely angered the new gods. They also issued an ultimatum to the old gods. If the old gods can't hand over Thor and Seth within three days, war will be waiting for both sides."
"I'm just a mortal. Since the new gods can't find Thor and Seth, what makes you think I can find them?" Zhang Heng asked.
"Because you have my help. Don't forget that I am Seth's sister, the Goddess of Magic in Egyptian mythology." Isis smiled slyly.
