With the Golden Fleece in hand, Dafei finally knew what this famous treasure in Greek mythology was for. It was to make a wish to the gods!
Achilles took a breath and smiled. "Now you can use this to make a wish to the gods. For example, the Hera you mentioned just now."
Can it finally work? Dafei hurriedly asked, "My wish is to raise my current domain level. Can Hera do it?"
Achilles shook his head. "Gods are not omnipotent. You are a completely different god from them. No god can fulfill your request. And you'd better find a god who has a good impression of you. The better the god, the better the effect of the wish. "
Dafei smiled bitterly. "I don't have a good impression of the god Olympus. It seems that the one with the best attitude is the god I just met recently, the god of fire."
Achilles smiled faintly. "The god of fire is passionate and violent at the same time. Don't be fooled by his superficial enthusiasm."
That was true. Only the system's reputation could determine the other's attitude. At least the god of fire had not given him any hints yet.
Achilles smiled again. "However, among the Olympian gods, there is one who is indeed greedy and does not care about reputation. But his divine power is also the smallest. You can consider it."
Dafei's eyebrows twitched. "The legendary god of commerce, Hermes?"
Achilles smiled. "Yes! Do you want to hear a joke about Hermes? "
Dafei smiled. "Tell me about it."
"One day, Hermes passed by a bustling city. On a whim, he transformed into a mortal and went to inspect the market. Then, he felt good about himself, thinking that all the prosperity was due to his own efforts, and that the merchants would definitely revere him. Then, Hermes saw a statue of his father Zeus, mother Hera, and himself in a small shop selling statues. So, he pointed at the statue of Zeus and asked, 'How much is this worth?' The owner replied, 'Two copper coins.' Only two copper coins! Hermes was amused. He pointed at the statue of his mother Hera and asked, 'What about this?' The owner replied, 'One copper coin.' Hermes laughed out loud and pointed at his statue in anticipation. Where is this handsome merchant guardian, Hermes? "
At this point, Achilles laughed out loud. "My dear friend, guess what the boss said?"
Dafei burst into laughter. Of course, Dafei knew that this was a famous joke from Aesop's fables, but he still played along and asked, "What do you mean?"
Achilles laughed so hard that he started to slap his thigh. "Boss said that as long as you buy the two just now, I'll give this to you as a bonus!"
Pfft! Dafei burst out laughing on the spot, not because of the joke, but because of Achilles' current form. Dafei would never have thought that the legendary Achilles was such a fun person.
"I'm counting on this joke to live my entire life!" Achilles laughed as he wiped his tears. After a while, he came back to his senses. "Anyway, this is how Hermes is. It's impossible to count on him to help you fight, but it's still quite convenient for him to trade with you."
Dafei's eyebrows twitched. That was true. With his current situation of being in a huge debt, as long as something went wrong and his territory was confiscated to pay off the debt, he would suffer a huge loss. He could stop fighting, and he could even stop messing around with this dungeon, but to be able to build a good relationship with a business god was a long-term plan.
Dafei immediately made up his mind. "Very well, then I'll go with Hermes. I'm used to dealing with people who only care about profit. I'm not afraid of him being greedy, but I'm afraid of him not being greedy."
Achilles was stunned. "Interesting!"
Dafei used the Golden Fleece, and it disappeared in a flash. A selection window popped up — 'Please choose the god you wish to worship!'
Looking at the names of the 12 gods, Dafei's gaze unconsciously stopped on the names of a few goddesses. After thinking about it, he resisted the urge. As long as he had the strength, he would not be afraid of not having goddesses. Hermes was so weak, but he was tall, rich, and handsome. He had even seduced the wife of the God of Fire and had given birth to a few babies for him.
Choose Hermes!
The next moment, a golden pillar of light descended from the sky, accompanied by hearty laughter. A blonde handsome man in a white suit appeared in the pillar of light. "What a wise choice. Only smart people can be a businessman. I am Hermes, the patron saint of businessmen. Choosing me is equivalent to choosing the path of wealth. I can give it to you immediately. Be honored!"
— System Notification: You have offered the precious Golden Fleece to Hermes. You have received the "Hermes' Exchange" as a reward from Hermes!
— — Hermes' Exchange: A portable buff. Increases your overall movement speed by 20% and stamina by 20% when not in combat. Bargaining Skill Level + 1. You can trade or exchange various items with Hermes in Hermes' Exchange. The Exchange can set up a temporary warehouse for the large amount of resources you have purchased. At the same time, Hermes can also issue trade quests to you through the Exchange. The faster you complete the trade quests, the faster you will receive additional rewards from Hermes.
The next moment, a glittering icon that looked like an auction building appeared next to Dafei's character status.
Dafei clicked on the icon. A categorized item window popped up. Dafei's eyes widened in shock. It really was a Exchange! I have a Exchange with me at all times! I don't even need to return to the city!
Dafei clicked on the treasure category. There were all kinds of divine weapons, S-grade equipment, A, B, and C-grade equipment! However, the prices were too high for his eyes. There was no point in looking at them! Then, Dafei clicked on the resource category. There were all kinds of crystals, mercury, and gems, and they were all extremely expensive! What the hell? Isn't this a "game shop" that specializes in ripping off tycoons in a money-making game?
Dafei was a little regretful that this Golden Fleece was not a big loss.
At this moment, the blond, tall, rich, and handsome man in the light said proudly, "Warriors, don't you think it's very convenient? What's more convenient is that you can sell items to me. For example, I'm willing to pay 1 million gold coins to buy the dragon corpse beside you, or other items of equal value. Warriors, you can choose whatever you want! "
Then, another trading item window popped up in front of Dafei. There were 1 million gold coins in the trading window, as well as all kinds of equipment and a certain amount of resources.
Carrying a garbage recycling bin with him? Dafei was surprised and laughed, "Can I not sell it?"
The tall, rich, and handsome man was quite disappointed. "Ah, we didn't reach a deal on our first meeting. Well, as a smart businessman, of course, I won't make a move easily. I admire you! Then, you can pay attention to the quests I've issued for you. Right now, there are ten running quests. As long as you can complete them on time, or assign your subordinates to complete them, you will receive my rewards and my favorability. When I fully trust you, I will introduce rare treasures and provide you with a lot of discounts! Then, good luck, goodbye! "
With that, the figure flashed and disappeared.
Dafei was stupefied on the spot. This was Hermes? This was his reward? At least for now, it was not worth a Golden Fleece. However, there were still benefits. He could directly buy wine and crystals from the shop. It could also be considered as a deceptive ammunition depot for the Cup of Champions and Void Angel.
Dafei clicked on the quests Hermes had issued.
— — Quest 1 "Delivering Wine": The great hero Hercules is engaged in a fierce battle with void monsters in the Void Canyon of the new world. Thirsty, he wishes to the great Hermes 500 units of "Amethyst Wine" (sold in the City of Pantheon's Exchange). Please deliver it within 1 month.
— — Quest 2 "Pearl of the Queen of Hades": Queen Persephone needs 100 units of Dazzling Pearls (sold in the City of Pantheon's Exchange and the Temple of the Sea Goddess) to celebrate her daughter's birthday. Please deliver the goods to Hades Royal City in the Underworld within 2 months.
— — Quest 3 "The Muse's Rosy New Clothes": The Muse Goddesses need 10 new clothes woven by the Goddess of Twilight for the upcoming celebration of the divine realm …
…
What the hell! Looking at the rows of deceptive quests that he did not even know the names of, Dafei instantly lost the idea of doing quests. Perhaps one day in the future, it would be better to let his sub-hero drive a fleet all over the world to do business.
