American Comics: Start To Become A God, I Choose Science And Magic Double Cultivation

Chapter 323 The Imprisoned God Of Craftsmen, The Irrational Divine Power Ring

Devil Island, Dane followed Hippolyta's guidance to an active volcano on the island.

The gods in this world are not completely extinct, nor have they hidden themselves in the New God Realm like in another world.

Some half-disabled gods chose another way to live among humans and hide in human society.

Many Superman species on Earth-3 are actually the descendants of these surviving gods and some humans, and are of demigod lineage.

But on Devil Island, there is still a real god alive, and Dane has been fascinated by this one for a long time.

He is Hephaestus, the god of fire.

Walking into the depths of the volcano is the palace Hephaestus built for himself. It is not a magnificent place, but it is extremely grand and huge.

Just like the kingdom under the mountain in "The Hobbit", the dome of the palace is very high, as if it was prepared for giants.

When Dane met the legendary god of craftsmen, he knew that this place was indeed prepared for giants.

Hephaestus is very big, similar to the dwarf in Marvel next door, and his legs look a little different in length and length.

Legend has it that when Hephaestus was born, his biological mother Hera threw him off Mount Olympus because she thought he was ugly, causing him to become lame.

Dane doesn't know whether this was the case in the original world, but it seems to be the case in this world.

Hephaestus seemed to sense a stranger approaching, and he turned his head to look at Dane.

As soon as this face was exposed, well, it's not to blame that Hera didn't want to see it, and Aphrodite didn't want to. This guy is indeed extremely ugly. Can you imagine what an enlarged version of Gollum looks like?

And Dane also noticed that around Hephaestus' body, there were countless chains penetrating his skin, and the other ends were connected to the surrounding walls.

Every time he moved, the chains on his body shook, making the sound of metal colliding.

He is not living in seclusion here, he is being imprisoned here.

Hephaestus squinted at Dane. He didn't like overly handsome men, but he was not stupid. The aftermath of the battle in the past few days had been transmitted to him.

Devil Island never lets any man stay on the island, unless the other person is a Deadman, or a conqueror.

He guessed Dane must be the latter.

"I think you must be the man who defeated the Amazons. Are you here to find me, the loser?"

Dane did not speak, but took out a huge amount of head from somewhere and threw it to Hephaestus. It was the head of Ares, the God of War.

At the moment, the head had turned as gray as stone, and the roaring expression still hung on his face, as if he was still unwilling to give up.

The moment Hephaestus saw the head, he raised his leg and crushed Ares' head with one kick!

Although there are many differences between the two worlds, those romantic deeds still happened. Aphrodite even gave birth to several little war gods for Ares, which played a big role in the Battle of Ragnarök.

Moreover, in order to humiliate Hephaestus, Ares imprisoned him and even dragged Aphrodite to perform erotic dramas in front of him many times. What kind of man is this?

Can you bear it?

Therefore, Hephaestus hated this man so much that he felt particularly angry after crushing Ares's head, and then crushed him again.

Then he looked at Dane: "What do you mean?"

Although he lost his mind for a moment when he just saw the head, but after venting his anger, his mind returned. He understood that Dane could kill Ares, so he could also kill him easily.

"This is just a meeting gift." Dane crossed his arms and said, "Hephaestus, I hope you can do something for me. If you are willing, I can lift your seal. 11

Hephaestus was silent. Dane's statement did not exceed his expectations. The only thing worthy of praise in him was his skills as the god of craftsmen.

But he was a little confused at the moment. His favorite thing to do was to help Aphrodite make exquisite jewelry, but Aphrodite betrayed him and fell into the arms of Ares, and finally died.

His next favorite thing was to build magnificent palaces for the gods, and to create more powerful and sophisticated weapons, but the gods also fell in Ragnarök.

Later, he was imprisoned here by Ares, and no one could get close to him. He relied entirely on his hatred of Ares to support him until now, otherwise he would have gone crazy long ago.

But now that his enemies are dead and his friends and relatives have left him, Hephaestus can't find the meaning of continuing to live for a while.

Fortunately, Dane had considered this situation beforehand and took out Ares' battle ax so that Hephaestus could see it.

He also made this ax, so he knows this weapon very well. Even Ares himself doesn't know this weapon better than him.

So when Dane took it out, Hephaestus could almost see at a glance that the soul of Ares resided in the battle axe, but this soul was muddy and seemed to have no will of its own.

Hephaestus's eyes flashed, as glaring as lava, and his big head tried hard to move in front of Dane, staring at the axe.

"Yes, I think you can see that the soul of Ares is imprisoned on this battle axe. If you agree to my conditions, Ares inside will be yours..."

"I promise you!" Hephaestus' voice was like a bell, and he agreed at this moment.

Dane was also decisive. He threw the battle ax out. The power of the God of War wrapped around the battle ax and cut off the surrounding chains. When the last chain broke, Hephaestus finally got out of trouble. He couldn't help but raise his head and roar.

Its sound penetrated the volcano palace and echoed throughout Devil Island.

Hippolyta, who was working, raised her head and glanced solemnly in the direction of the volcano.

"It's the voice of Hephaestus..."

She had seen this god of craftsmen more than once in the era when gods and humans lived together. Many of the precious weapons of the Amazons were also made by this god.

It's just that the volcano temple was a forbidden area set up by Ares. They have been unable to enter it for thousands of years, but now Dane has entered it.

I don’t know if this is a blessing or a curse for Amazon?

Returning to the palace, Dane did not take back the battle ax, but left it with Hephaestus.

"I have handed over his soul to you, and he has become an idiot now, so you can deal with him however you want.

As for this battle ax, I hope you will melt it down and make a new weapon. By the way, do you know how to process the ninth metal?"

Hephaestus gave him an affirmative answer: "As long as I have the materials, I can make anything you want!" This is his pride as the God of Craftsmen and the God of Fire.

"Very good, I will find that piece of metal as soon as possible, and you can prepare to open the furnace."

This volcano is not only the energy source for Hephaestus to maintain his divine power, but also his furnace.

He is the god of fire. Wherever there is fire, he can obtain the basic energy to maintain his existence.

He is also the god of craftsmen. As long as there are ores, he will not lose this godhead.

The volcanic land just met his need to maintain his divinity, so Hephaestus did not want to leave the palace after regaining his freedom, and he did not want to see the Amazons, the creations of Ares.

At the moment he stared at the Ax of Ares in his hand, thinking about how to control him.

Suddenly he asked: "Can you restore his sanity?"

Dane glanced at him in surprise, and when he saw the fire of hatred burning in his eyes, he understood the meaning of this request.

So he said nothing and once again used the "Gift of Life" to modify the God of War's sanity, but still sealed his magical knowledge, habitually playing a safe hand.

After regaining his senses, Ares instantly screamed: "Hephaestus! You are out of trouble!"

Hephaestus opened his impotent mouth, and his jagged teeth and gaps between his teeth as black as carbon ash made him look very evil.

Ares seemed to be able to meet his own end, and he screamed again: "No! You can't do this!"

Dane glanced at it and lost interest in reading any more: "I won't disturb your game anymore. Remember what I told you."

Hephaestus waved it off as no problem.

As a god of craftsman who creates countless magical weapons for the gods, he knows many kinds of enchantment magic, and his treasure chest also contains many tools for soul transformation and processing.

Dane turned around and left. At the palace gate, he could still hear the screams of Ares's soul. Only he could hear this sound, and it was quite noisy.

But considering Hephaestus's grievances for so many years, he didn't blame the other party for disturbing the people.

Back at the Amazon Palace, Diana and Zatanna were watching the excitement around the magic Crystal ball. They were mainly watching Barry "fall in love" with a girl. Who said that goddesses don't follow dramas? Isn't it quite fun to do so? .

"I'm going out for a trip, do you want to go with me?"

Diana thought for a while and said: "I want to stay at Amazon, and I have a hunch that they may play some role in the future.

When Zatanna heard what she said, she thought for a while and said: "Since Diana is staying, then I will stay too, otherwise I'm afraid those Amazons won't be able to survive." Diana's training intensity is indeed a bit high. Went to train superheroes.

She was a little dissatisfied: "They are too lazy! If they can't handle this level of intensity, how can they deserve to be called Amazon warriors?"

Diana must have asked the Amazons according to the standards of Artemis or Big Barda. Let alone them, it would be difficult to find a few warriors in the whole world who could compare with those two people.

…Please give me flowers…

Dane understood her thinking: "Since you are not going, then stay here. If you have anything, you can contact me through the magic box. w

Zatanna and Diana nodded. As they watched, Dane flew into the clouds and disappeared directly into the sky.

"Tell me, will he be here..."

Diana frowned slightly: "No way? There is no woman here who is worthy of him."

Zatanna turned her head and looked at Barry in the magic Crystal ball, but pointedly said: "That's not necessarily the case.

Dane couldn't hear the two of them murmuring. He was flying in a certain direction, which was exactly the direction Zansha fled.

The Crime Syndicate was unable to find the hidden Zanza, but the magic of Devil Island kept an eye on him, allowing Dane to discover his hiding place.

In Beach City, Hal felt that he had integrated into the city. Although he did not get along very well with Martin Jordan, Jessica seemed to have changed her mind about him.

He doesn't know why, maybe out of pity or other emotions, he hopes to change people's impression of "Hal Jordan".

On this day, Hal unknowingly walked to the place where Carol lives. You can't blame him. The two places he is most familiar with in Beach City are his home and here.

Hal didn't want to see what he didn't want to see. If Carol was different from his impression, he felt that he would go crazy, so he turned around and walked away.

........0

But by coincidence, Carol happened to be driving home from Ferris and saw him.

"Hal?" Carol Qi said.

this

Hal Jordan in this world has completely unrequited love for Carol, so there is no romantic relationship between them.

And because "Hal Jordan" once stole the trade secrets of Ferris Company, he was almost beaten to death by his boss Ferris.

"How dare you come back?"

Carol got out of the car and looked at Hal with her hands on her hips. She felt that she hated Hal Jordan. He obviously had high flight ability, but was as timid as a mouse.

Hal didn't understand what she was talking about, but he knew that whatever Carol was saying, it was definitely not to him, but to another "Hal".

So he said, "You got the wrong person" and wanted to leave.

However, Carol then laughed and said: "Don't you even have the courage to face me now? I thought you would be more talkative after becoming a 'power ring'.

Hal turned his head in surprise: "Power ring?"

Carol raised her head arrogantly: "Do you think I can't recognize you after you change into tight clothes? Your temperament is so special, I can see through it at a glance."

She and Hal met in the company almost every day. She knew very well about this man's wretchedness and cowardice. In the past, she hated such people because they were from completely different worlds.

world people.

But it was different after Hal got the power ring. Even though Hal put on the power ring, he still looked at Carol with such disgusting eyes. This is why Kameng was able to discover that he really

The reason for real identity.

But Ferris wants the power ring, and Carol also wants to study the power of the ring, and wants to use Hal so that Ferris and his company can reap greater benefits from the ring.

For this reason, Carol doesn't mind giving Hal a little sweet taste. This is why she will get out of the car specifically to talk to this Loser today. For the sake of profit, she is willing to pay a little bit.

sacrifice.

"I think you must have misunderstood."

Hal still said this, which made Carol feel dissatisfied. Just as she was about to say something, she noticed that Hal across from him suddenly raised his head with a serious expression and looked at the sky.

Carol looked along his line of sight and found a man floating in the sky. That was a divine power ring!

"Caro..." There is something wrong with the state of the divine power ring, and he seems to be a little confused.

Carol was a little confused. She glanced at Hal beside her and said in disbelief: "You're not..."

"No, obviously I'm not."

Hal smiled. This smile was confident and sunny. It was indeed not a smile that the man Carol knew could show. It even made Carol's heart beat faster.

"Carol, I can't take it anymore, I need you and I want you now!"

The divine power ring seemed to have really lost its mind and rushed directly towards Carol, apparently wanting to kidnap her directly.

"careful!"

Hal almost instinctively reacted and rushed forward, protecting Carol in his arms.

With a "boom", the divine power ring passed by them, crashed into the cement ground, and exploded into mountains of rubble and dust. .
