"Crazy? You call this crazy? "
Rogge moved his left hand, which had yet to fully recover, and turned to ask doubtfully.
"You … Forget it. I'll arrange for someone to send the magic information you want now."
Looking at Rogge's calm face, Dum felt for the first time that he had never really seen through Rogge's thoughts.
Ever since he knew of Rogge's existence, Dum had always thought that Rogge was someone who would only act according to his mood.
But now, he felt that he had guessed wrong.
Rogge was not a straightforward person at all. He was a lunatic who walked between madness and calmness.
When he was calm, he could persuade others with his eloquence alone. He was so meticulous that it was as if he could see through other people's thoughts.
When he went crazy, he was a lunatic who did not even care about the Lords of Hell.
These two completely different personalities appeared in him at the same time, making him extremely difficult to guess.
Even if one interacted with him day and night, one might not be able to guess his true thoughts.
Dum was not worried that his opponent would be meticulous, nor was he worried that his opponent would be crazy and unruly.
But he did not want his opponent to be someone who repeatedly jumped between calmness and madness.
It was a very troublesome thing to be an opponent with such a person.
Especially when this person had extraordinary strength, it would make it even more difficult for one to attack.
After destroying the teleportation portal to Hell, Dum brought Rogge back to the original reception hall and waited for the guards to send the reward that Rogge wanted.
"When do you plan to go to Hell next?"
While waiting, Dum asked a question that he was rather curious about.
Although Dum had returned to Earth first, he had also heard the last conversation between Rogge and Mephisto, so he took the initiative to bring up this topic.
"I'm not sure yet. If it's fast, I might go in a few months. If it's slow, it might even be eight to ten years."
Rogge answered silently and carefully checked his body.
On one hand, he did not want to leave any hidden injuries on his body.
On the other hand, he wanted to check if Mephisto had secretly left any marks or tricks on his body.
One couldn't be too careful when dealing with hell's demons, especially when dealing with a Lord of Hell like Mephisto.
"May I ask why you still want to go?
"You've already seen Mephistos's strength. It's not a wise thing to make him your enemy in hell."
Dum could not figure out why Rogge had to go to hell.
Hell wasn't a tourist attraction, not to mention a powerful existence like the Lord of Hell, Mephisto.
Most importantly, Rogge had already offended Mephisto to the core.
As long as Rogge appeared in Hell, Dum could guarantee that Mephistos would definitely attack him with all his might without any hesitation or pity.
Although Dum did not know what kind of existence the Sword of Totsuka that Rogge had used at the end was, he knew that Rogge's sword had directly taken away a portion of Mephisto's power.
As a professional scholar who had studied hell and Mephisto for more than ten years, Dum knew very well what this meant.
"It's simple, because I don't like to lose!"
After confirming that there were no hidden dangers in his body, Rogge replied with a smile.
"You want to go to hell again just because of this reason?"
Dum realized that he could not keep up with Rogge's thoughts.
"Isn't this a very normal thing? As the saying goes, you have to get up from where you fall.
"Including this time, I've already lost to Mephisto twice, so no matter what, I have to go to hell to get back at him."
Rogge's reply was very casual, but his answer made Dum confirm once again that he was a lunatic.
It was normal to not like to lose.
Competition and the unwillingness to admit defeat were innate instincts of life.
Those who chose to live a comfortable life and did not want to improve had long been eliminated in the long river of evolution.
"I'm beginning to understand why you were able to become the famous Fourth Hokage in just a few years."
After saying that, Dum fell silent and waited patiently for the guards to arrive.
Both Rogge and Dum were very patient people. For the rest of the time, they just looked at each other without saying a word, as if whoever spoke first would admit defeat.
After this oppressive silence lasted for nearly thirty minutes, Dum's robot guards finally pushed Rogge's reward in.
These intelligent robot guards pushed carts that looked like food delivery carts in, one after another, one after another.
When the last robot pushed the cart in, the originally spacious living room became as crowded as a market.
"These are the magic materials you asked for, all of them are here."
Dum pointed to the magic books piled up like a small hill on the cart and said calmly.
"I was just wondering whether you would give me the printed version or the electronic version of the materials.
"I didn't expect you to be more generous than I thought, actually handing over the original directly."
Rogge casually picked up the nearest thick magic book and skimmed through a few pages.
Similar to the books in the Kamar-Taj Library, this magic book was an ancient book that had been passed down for many years.
"You helped me save my mother, this reward is nothing."
Dum did not mind Rogge taking away these ancient books.
Not to mention that he had already read the contents of these magic books, even if he forgot in the future, he still had many backups.
One of the benefits of the technological era was that the storage and circulation of knowledge had become extremely simple.
Even the manufacturing principle of nuclear weapons could be easily found on the Internet.
For example, in the 1970s, an economics student at Harvard University in the United States, relied on the public information in the library to complete a 400-page "How to Make a Nuclear Bomb". (Note 1)
This was still something that happened in the 1970s, when the Internet was just a few years old.
The Internet at that time was not the same as the Internet today. After all, the Internet with search functions was only invented in 1989.
"I'm very satisfied with this reward!"
While talking, a Chakra hand formed by Chakra rushed out of Rogge's body, collected the magic books on these small cars one by one, and then threw them all into the summon scroll.
Looking at the Chakra hand that rushed out of Rogge's body, Dum's evaluation of him improved slightly.
It's not difficult to build energy into the shape you want.
But condensing hundreds of large and small energy arms of different lengths at one time like Rogge and performing exquisite control of these arms is not something that anyone can do.
To be precise, not many people can do it.
This level of control not only requires an extremely precise level of energy control, but also requires the user to have a computer-like multithreading processing ability to achieve this level of control of hundreds of arms at the same time.
Just as Rogge put away the summon scroll and planned to open the portal back to Konoha's headquarters, Dum spoke again: "This time, I owe you a favor. If you hadn't proposed this plan, I wouldn't have been able to redeem my mother's soul."
"If you need any help in the future, you can contact me at any time."
When Rogge showed his superb level of energy control, Dum decided to establish more contact with him.
It's always good to establish a relationship with such a strong person.
"You don't owe me a favor, this is just a fair cooperation. You saved your mother, and I got the reward I wanted.
"An exchange of equal value is a fair trade."
Rogge pointed to the cars that had been completely emptied.
Of course, this was only what he said to Dum on the surface.
What he really wanted was Ninja Coins that Dum didn't know about at all.
When he put all the magic books that Dum promised into the summon scroll, he opened the commission page of the system and took a look.
"Commission Content: Assist Dr. Dum to free Cynthia's soul; Commission Status: Completed; Commission Reward: 250 Ninja Coins sent!"
With the 250 Ninja Coins, the number of Ninja Coins he had not consumed reached 910, and he was only 90 Ninja Coins away from the final 1000 Ninja Coins mark.
"But speaking of helping, I do have a plan. I don't know if you are interested."
Rogge didn't directly refuse Dum's kindness.
"What plan?"
Dum asked calmly.
"Flame Giant Surter, you should know him, right?"
Rogge didn't directly say what his plan was. If Dum didn't even know who the Flame Giant Surter was, he wasn't qualified to join his plan.
"The Flame Giant Surter is the ruler of Muspelheim, but it is said that he was defeated by Asgard Odin a long time ago, and his most important treasure, the Eternal Fire, was taken away."
As a person who once pursued the mysteries of magic all over the world, Dum was certainly not unfamiliar with Surter.
If he had a way to go to other countries in the Nine Worlds, he would have already gone to see other countries in the Nine Worlds.
"The Eternal Fire is now with me!"
As soon as his voice fell, Rogge summoned a small cluster of Eternal Fire and let the Eternal Fire burn slowly on his fingertips.
"You actually got the Eternal Fire, then it seems that the news that Odin is dead some time ago is not a rumor."
Although Dum hasn't been to other planets and countries, it doesn't mean that his information channels are blocked.
For a Sorcerer, especially a Sorcerer who has mastered many magic, it is not particularly difficult to communicate with a life in other countries.
"Odin did fall, but this has nothing to do with my plan. Because the place I am going to go is Muspelheim. "
"Tell me about your plan?"
Dum also began to wonder what Rogge was planning.
"How about the plan to conquer Muspelheim?"
Looking at Dum, who had obviously been interested, Rogge said calmly.
