Hessiana was serious.
Hao Ren knew that Hessiana was not joking when he saw the look in Hessiana's eyes. But what she said still made him want to mutter, "Was Vivian really that miserable in the past?"
"You still have doubts about this?" Hessiana glanced at Hao Ren. "Lady Vivian has been known for being poor for 10,000 years. How poor do you think she is? Let me tell you, I'm not joking with you. If you meet the historical Vivian, then treating her to a meal is definitely the first step to gaining her trust! "
Hao Ren suddenly remembered a conversation he had with Vivian a long time ago. At that time, he asked Vivian how he should greet the Countess of the Crimson Moon. Vivian smiled and said, "Just treat me to a meal."
Was this the power of fate? Hao Ren's careless remark was about to come true today.
"So, a meal can buy over Battie," Lily said with a look of contempt. "Then why didn't she get along with anyone in the past? It's like she hasn't made any friends in ten thousand years."
"Do you think it is easy to make friends with Lady Vivian?" Hessiana sighed. "You have never experienced how powerful Vivian's halo of bad luck is. Ordinary people would basically go bankrupt within three days of contact with her. Those who are well-off usually can't survive for more than half a month. If you treat her to a meal of vegetarian pancakes, you have to be mentally prepared that you can only afford vegetarian pancakes for the next three years. In the past, some ancient families wanted to use her fame and prestige to get close to her. They were prepared to sacrifice half of their family fortune to get close to her. "
"Mount Olympus had the best relationship with Vivian. Zeus, the king of gods, often invited her to dinner. The cost of each meal was often enough to drain a city of half a year's tax. As long as she was a guest, we would suffer losses because of various natural and man-made disasters. But compared to the power of the Countess of the Crimson Moon, this price is worth it. At least when Vivian is in a deep slumber, the surrounding pantheons will not dare to cause trouble for the Olympus Family. After all, when the Countess goes berserk, blood will flow like a river. She will protect a place that can feed her at all costs … "
Hao Ren: "… Holy shit."
Hessiana added, "Of course, these effects are only limited to the situation where you are trying to get closer to Lady Vivian. If you just pass by her, you are still safe. Because of this, Lady Vivian had never been close to anyone. Other than a few people who were willing to risk everything to befriend her, she would not get close to anyone. That was why I was so surprised to see you with Lady Vivian. "
At this time, Raven 12345 patted Hao Ren on the shoulder. "So you understand now. I was not joking when I told you that Vivian's Malevolence attribute is' poverty. 'This' poverty 'is more serious than you think. It is a disaster, no less destructive than the ordinary Malevolence."
The veins on Hao Ren's forehead were bulging. "Then why am I fine?"
"You are a demigod. You have an entire pantheon supporting you. What kind of debuff would work on you?" Raven 12345 raised her eyebrows. "Do you have no confidence in the organization?"
Hao Ren quickly waved his hand. "Okay, okay, I understand. It is too weird to continue this topic. Let's get down to business, shall we?"
Speaking of business, Hessiana and Hesperides became serious again. Hesperides nodded and said, "Yes, you should know how to survive in the Mythological Era rather than how to get close to Vivian.
"With your ability, it is not a problem for you to survive in the human world. But you have to go to the time and space distorted by Vivian. The 'source point' of that time and space is most likely related to the Mythological Era or some powerful otherworldlings. It is almost impossible for a human to move freely in that environment. Basically, after crossing the medieval timeline, you have to face a situation dominated by supernatural forces and dark terror.
"Let's go back in time. In modern times, you faced the least challenges. You basically had to deal with isolated otherworldlings or hidden hermit families. They had been scared out of their wits by the demon hunters. You could disguise yourself as a human sorcerer and interact with them, but you had to be careful of being targeted by the demon hunters. Although the demon hunters were much less active at that time compared to the Middle Ages, you could still bump into them in remote villages and ancient cities with ancient ruins. Once you met them, you would have to...
Once you meet them, you have to … "" You have to be vigilant when it comes to the Middle Ages. It was the last phase of the Mythological Era. The demon hunters were exterminating the otherworldlings all over the world. There were conflicts everywhere on the surface and in the dark. No matter what identity you disguise as, you may be attacked. Your best disguise is actually a demon hunter. I think the two demon hunters beside you can give you good guidance. "
Hasse and White Flame nodded. Apparently, this was the reason why Raven 12345 called them here.
Hesperides continued, "After the Middle Ages, until the first year of the Mythological Era, the demon hunters and otherworldlings were at war. It was relatively safe at that time because all parties had a relatively clear sphere of influence. Assassination and secret investigations were not as terrifying as in the future. If all disputes were out in the open, you would save yourself a lot of trouble. But you'd better not disguise as a wizard. At that time, human wizards were still slaves of the otherworldling families. They rarely had the right to move freely. A human wizard wandering around would be quite conspicuous. You can disguise as a Blood Clan because the Blood Clan was the most widely distributed supernatural race at that time. Hessiana has a way to create this aura for you.
"After that, you will enter the real Mythological Era. Needless to say, the 'rebel army' of the demon hunters was still a little trouble at the edge of the world. Humans were powerless, and the whole world was ruled by the supernatural races. You can continue to disguise as a Blood Clan member, but at that time, Vivian's main area of activity was in ancient Greece. You would probably be teleported to that area. So, I suggest you disguise as a 'hybrid descendant' of the Olympus family or a 'demigod hero' and give yourself a famous name. As long as you don't make too much noise, you will not be exposed. After all, you know, at that time — "
Hao Ren did not wait for her to finish. He waved his hand and said, "I understand, I understand. Zeus was promiscuous."
Hesperides looked a little embarrassed, but she continued, "This disguise also has a hidden danger. If Vivian was a guest of the Olympus family at that time, you would have to deal with our family sooner or later. So, you'd better not say that you are a hybrid descendant of a god. Let the guys on the mountain fight among themselves. They fight over this kind of thing all the time anyway."
Hao Ren smacked his lips and said, "Tsk, so troublesome. Forget it. Finding Vivian is the most important thing. How about I look for you when the time comes? "
"Not much." Hesperides waved her hand. "Because I didn't even know you at that time."
"That's true. What else?"
"If you continue, you will probably enter the early barbaric era. I can't give you much advice in that era." Hesperides frowned. "It was the era when all the supernatural races survived in the wilderness. All the family forces and social rules were chaotic. The whole world was waiting to be developed. Let me give you a suggestion. The one with the biggest fist is the boss."
Hao Ren agreed with this suggestion.
"Finally, I want to remind you that no matter where you go back to, as long as you are in the Mythological Era, you must remember one thing," Hesperides said with a serious expression. "The Mythological Era was barbaric. No matter how beautiful the clothes and the palaces looked, there was still a barbaric essence hidden underneath. All the rules served the 'gods', and all the social order was based on plunder and slavery. It was the same for the internal state and even worse for the external state. Different races were almost born to be mortal enemies. No matter what identity you disguised as, you would have made several times more enemies at the same time. So don't think that you can rely on reason and logic to deal with those guys at that time."
Hao Ren smiled slightly. "Reason and logic are established within the range of the cannon. They can choose not to listen to me, but I can beat them until they listen to me."
Hesperides clapped her hands gently. "Congratulations, you have mastered the first rule of life in the Mythological Era."
"Next, we will tell you about the demon hunters." After Hesperides stepped back, Hasse came up to her. "You will have to deal with the demon hunters most of your journey back in time. Compared with the loose and chaotic otherworldling families, the demon hunters are highly organized and disciplined, which is the biggest challenge you will face. But it is not without loopholes. You have to keep in mind …"
When everything was arranged, Hao Ren stood in front of the surging vortex.
Black-and-red smoke was rolling in the vortex. Nothing could be seen in the smoke. Blood-red lightning was swimming outside the vortex like a blood vessel that had suddenly burst. It was creepy.
"Can't I even bring the MDT with me?" Hao Ren looked back at Raven 12345.
"For the sake of the stability of the 'sandbox system', the fewer conscious entities involved, the better," Raven 12345 said with a serious look on her face. "But as long as you do what we just said, there will be no big problem. And the things in your Dimensional Pocket can still be used. In a primitive world, those things are enough to help you solve most of the problems. "
Hao Ren exhaled and turned around. "Okay, then I'll go."
As his voice trailed off, he had already stepped into the black-and-red vortex.
His figure swayed a few times before he dissipated into the depths of the clouds like a shattered dream.
The platform was silent for a long time. Nangong Wuyue carefully broke the silence. "Uh … What should we do?"
Several pairs of eyes fell on Raven 12345 at the same time. The goddess thought for a moment and said, "Let's … play mahjong?"
