living in a broken world

"These things are secondary, and the next thing is the key, but this can wait until we get back to the ground."

Rubbing the head of Qiyana, who has become a little money fan, motioned for Qiyana to pick up her dropped items and magic crystals.

"You don't have anything to ask me, Mei."

"No, your share will fall into my pocket anyway."

Pursing her lips, Mei had a faint smile on her face, and helped Liu Yun straighten his collar.When talking about Liuyun's share will fall into her pocket, a faint blush appeared on Mei's face.

Obviously, it is a bit difficult for this young lady who has always been well-educated to say such words, at least she will feel very shy.

At this moment, countless thoughts floated through Mei's mind.Will Liu Yun say no, will Liu Yun feel that she is a girl who loves money, and will she feel that she is too much in charge?These questions suddenly came to mind, making the movements of Mei's hands a little froze.

"Heh, what are you thinking?" Liu Yun's words made Mei's heart tighten suddenly, and her eyelids drooped a little, trying to cover up the disappointment in her eyes.

"Not all mine is yours, then you can be my finance minister." And this sentence made Mei open her eyes again, and her bright eyes stared at Liu Yun with a smirk in front of her.

"Oh—! I want to be Liuyun's finance minister too! I will definitely keep it safe for you."

Although I don't know how much Liuyun's money is, it doesn't prevent Qiyana from making this decision. How cool is it to see that string of pleasing numbers tomorrow?And you can use Liuyun's money to buy vegetables and buy a small pack of snacks at the same time.

Just a small packet, just a little bit, just a billion bit.

"Well said, but I refuse."

"why--!"

"Because it's my money."

"I'm speechless..."

Looking at Liuyun with a confident smile on his face and Qiyana with a mournful face, Mei burst out laughing, looking at Qiyana who was always at a disadvantage, Mei could only shake her head helplessly with a little sympathy.

…………

"Ahhhhh—! Don't come here!"

The ninth floor of the dungeon, this is the limit that a single adventurer of level 1 can explore, and now, a white-haired boy is being chased by the tauren monster behind him, his red eyes are full of fear.

The tawny skin, strong body and well-developed muscles of the monster behind him clearly illustrate one thing, the monster on the 17th floor: the Minotaur.

It's just a monster that only lv2 adventurers can contend with, and at this moment, the white-haired boy who is only lv1 has been repaired and has no power to fight back, and his whole body is full of wounds.Regardless of strength or speed, the boy was far inferior to the monster behind him.

The next moment, the boy ran away in a hurry but didn't notice the obstacles on the ground, and was tripped by a stone and flew out. The boy who fell to the ground looked at Minotaurus who had already bullied him, and closed his eyes in despair.

laugh--!The sound of a sharp weapon hitting his body, the boy who opened his eyes saw a young man with a displeased face, the two wolf ears on his head were shaking slightly, and he saw the young man with a rebellious expression on his face, viciously kicking on the boy .

"Without that person, would your Hestia family have been like this? A mere Minotaur has chased you around, are you trash? A little devil stained with blood like a tomato!"

"Okay, Burt, he's just Lv1, it's not easy to enter the ninth floor in such a short time, after all, not everyone is that kind of monster." Looking at the wolf youth with the lightning tattoo on his face , Rivilia, an elf with long ears, scolded.

"That person might be gone long ago."

"The leader will definitely come back! And in the absence of the leader, I must support the burden of the Hestia family! I, Bell Craney, believe in the leader."

Stained with blood, Bell grabbed the stones on the ground and shouted silently in his heart.

3. Cha Lemon

Thank you Qingfeng of Azeroth for your reward, and also thank Emperor Xietong, Ji Bianhua, and Mandala ベ for your rewards.

……

"He has been missing for two weeks. Just like when he came, he appeared inexplicably and disappeared inexplicably. Maybe he has been eaten by monsters in the deep part of the dungeon! And you tomato kid, what are you talking about?" Woolen cloth."

Looking down at Bell who was kicked to the ground by himself, the werewolf Bert with the lightning tattoo on his face was slightly angry, because during this time he found that Aisi's strength had suddenly grown to the point where he was about to abuse him easily.

This is impossible for the arrogant werewolf who likes Ais, because in his world, the weak are not qualified to stand beside the strong.

And the culprit who made Ais suddenly stronger was the leader of the Hestia family who disappeared for two weeks: Liu Yun.

It was precisely because of this that Bert was always holding back an unknown anger in his heart. Although he didn't really think about what happened to others, he especially wanted to see the man's deflated expression.

"Bert! It's very impolite to discuss others behind their backs." Glancing at the clamoring werewolf, Riveria's clear eyes flashed with displeasure. As an elf, Riveria has an elegant aristocratic demeanor.Similarly, she also has some requirements for the people in the family.

"It's only two weeks. Didn't he stay on the 36th floor for a month last time? Adventurers regard exploring unknown existence as a kind of instinct. With his strength, there shouldn't be any problems. You can tell me about this." Don't worry."

After exhorting Bell, who was sitting on the ground, Riveria took Bert, who was upset behind his back, to the deep level, where their companions were, and the reason they came up this time was because they made a mistake and put Ben at 17 Tier 9 Minotaurs are placed on Tier [-].

This situation is fatal to lower-level adventurers, because lv1 adventurers have no ability to resist Minotaurs.

…………

Walking out of the maze, Liu Yun glanced at the adventurer behind him, then at Kiyana who was holding magic crystals in her arms. After thinking for a moment, Liu Yun suggested that Qiyana exchange the things for gold coins.

"Liuyun!?"

The moment she stepped into the Adventurer's Guild, a girl with pink shoulder-length short hair walked over quickly, and Aiina, who was next to her, gave Liu Yun a helpless look with such an angry look.

"Misha? Is there something wrong?" The pink-haired girl in the guild uniform in front of her is Liuyun's consultant for exploring the dungeon. Usually, Liuyun would come to her for any questions.But now, what the hell is Mi Xia looking like asking for a crime.

"You still recognize me? I disappeared for two weeks and didn't know to report to me in advance? Do you know that God Hestia is dying of anxiety?"

Obviously, as Liu Yun's nominal advisor, Mi Xia condemned Liu Yun's behavior of going his own way.But when talking about Hestia, the expression on Misha's face became serious.

stare……

Squinting her eyes, Qiyana stared at Mi Xia in front of Liu Yun expressionlessly.After a while, a strange smile appeared on Qiyana's face as if she saw a beautiful young lady.

After chatting with Mi Xia for a few words, when he learned that he had disappeared here for two weeks, and then looked at the reward order for the missing person in the middle of the task bar of the Adventurer's Guild, Liu Yun couldn't help covering his face.

Hestia was afraid that he would lose it and even offered a reward... Although Liu Yun admits that he is indeed a road idiot sometimes.

After selling the magic crystal and dropped items in Qiyana's arms, and seeing Qiyana, who turned into a little money fan and sharing her gold coins with Mei, Liu Yun also confirmed his thoughts in the maze just now.

In the labyrinth city of Orario, along one of the 8 directions that radiate from the center of the city to the surroundings, Liuyun and his party walked towards the southwest direction where the Hestia family was located, and what they held in their hands was Liuyun. own reward order.

Stopped at the door of the family, when Liu Yun looked at the petite figure squatting at the door, he remembered the past.Liu Yun, who came out of the Hephaestus family, picked up a desolate god at the door, a salted fish god whose patience was stretched to the limit because he stayed at a friend's house and didn't go out to work or go out to form a family.

To be honest, on the one hand, Liu Yun wanted to join the Hestia family on a whim; on the other hand, Hestia would not restrict his freedom; eager.

"Liu Yun, is this the legendary High God Hestia?" Yai asked softly in Liu Yun's ear, tugging at Liu Yun's sleeve.

It's no wonder that Mei asked this question, because in everyone's impression, gods should be noble, dignified and full of wisdom, but the little girl in front of her is quite different from the imagination in her memory.

"Huh?" Looking up, the goddess named Hestia saw the culprit that had worried her for two weeks.The look in the eyes that had been a little confused had reappeared. She had been squatting here all along, just to see him, her first family member, for the first time.

The words of Xingshi's questioning that were in his mind could no longer be uttered, and the words that wanted to complain were choked up and could not be uttered again.He wanted to get up and run over, but his legs were sore and his buttocks sat on the ground because he hadn't moved for too long, so he could only smirk at Liu Yun.

"Welcome back!"

"The task is completed, remember to give the bounty."

Looking at the reward order in the young man's hand, Hestia blushed, because the portrait on the reward order was drawn by her herself, and her painting skills were not so good.

"Yeah." But after seeing Liu Yun come back, the stone in Hestia's heart was finally let go.Nodding heavily, Hestia turned her attention from Liuyun to Kiana and Mei.

There are two beautiful little girls, one with lively eyes full of curiosity, and the other gentle and charming but quiet, this is Hestia's first impression.

Did the two weeks when Liu Yun left suddenly have something to do with them?This was the second question that came to Hestia's mind. Thinking of this, Hestia's eyes became vigilant, and both ponytails stood up.

To be honest, along the way, Mei and Kiyana saw many monsters like demon wolves, goblin slimes, skeleton monsters and werewolves, and also saw the moment when monsters were bred in the dungeon. things to watch.

If Liuyun hadn't told her about the situation in this world in advance, Mei would never believe that the gods in the sky came to the ground because of boredom, and she would never believe that the girl in front of her who looked like a little girl was Hess Goddess Tia.

"Then, you are Liu Yun's comrades in arms?" For some reason, Hestia suddenly became sour when he heard that Liu Yun had left without a word to pick up the two girls in front of him. Still the sourness of a raw lemon.

4. On 108 ways to hug the thigh.

……

To be honest, Hestia really thought that Liu Yun had gone to the dungeon for an adventure in advance, but he didn't see Liu Yun come back after waiting for a week.

And even if Hestia has never entered the dungeon to explore, Hestia knows that high-level adventurers usually go deep into the dungeon to explore, because only the monsters in the deep can provide them with enough experience value.

It takes a long time to enter the deep layer of the dungeon. Sometimes it may take two to three days just for the journey, and it may take as long as one to two months to go on an adventure. Two weeks may not seem like much to others.

But generally speaking, a family, apart from the main god, will have a head who is responsible for the affairs of the entire family, and even manages the members of the entire family, and leads the members of the family to carry out activities.

And Liu Yun, the head of the group, disappeared without a sound, which made Hestia, who had no experience in managing the family, a little flustered. As for Bell, he had just become an adventurer and hadn't even been to the dungeon a few times.

In this way, the two discussed for a while and decided to issue a reward order.

Because Liu Yun would usually report to himself or leave a note when going on a long-term adventure, but this time it seemed to have disappeared.

The words of Freya and Loki kept appearing in Hestia's heart, is he really qualified to let such a child with unlimited potential be entangled by his weak family?

But at this moment, when I looked at the two girls sitting next to Liu Yun, I suddenly felt a bit of liver pain. I was worried for so long, but they just went out to pick up my comrades.

It should be nothing at all, but as soon as he thought of the two beautiful girls with their own merits not only fighting side by side with Liuyun for so long, but also having a deep friendship, Hestia felt a different mood emerge in his heart.

"Liuyun, I'll forgive you this time. Remember to tell me if you go out in the future. If you really can't do it, remember to leave a note."

Picking up the cup on the table and taking a sip of tea, Hestia opened his eyes, and the corners of Hestia's eyes twitched continuously.Because apart from the dignified black-haired girl who was still sitting there listening to her words, the other two had already ran to the orchard downstairs and started to sweep.

"Hehe, they've always been like this. God, Hestia, can you talk to me about the things here? What's the difference between this labyrinth city of Orario and the outside world?"

Putting down the cup she held in her hand, she poured herself another cup, her dark eyes slightly bent, and Mei put her eyes on Hestia in front of her, gazing at the petite goddess in front of her, her tone was still as soft as ever.

"If it's the information from the adventurer side, I may not know as much as Liu Yun, but wait a minute, I remember I bought books about these, although I haven't had time to read them yet."

After finishing speaking, Hestia hurriedly ran to her room, and then there was a sound of rummaging through boxes and boxes.

In fact, this matter can be discussed after Liu Yun comes back, but when he glanced at the two people sweeping the orchard below, Mei's eyebrows and eyes could not help but bend.

Suddenly, the smile on the corner of Mei's mouth froze a bit, and she seemed to not know whether she could understand the words of this world.

…………

"In this world, the mainstream situation is to join the family of a certain god, and the way to gain power is to obtain the gift of God."

"Is that why you suddenly became so much stronger during this period of time!?" Kiyana's eyes lit up when she heard what Liu Yun said just now.Without looking up, Liu Yun knew that the girl's face must be full of excitement and curiosity.

"But if this is the case, this is the power given by others, not really your own power." Guangguang heard the previous words, Mei Yi frowned.

She has been honing Beichen's one-sword style, but she doesn't think that the power given by the so-called god's gift is a normal way to gain power. To put it bluntly, adventurers who have no way to give up their power will become god's lackeys.

"Actually, the so-called gift is not an ability that allows people to gain power immediately, it is just an opportunity and an accelerator.

Its main function is to unearth possibilities that you have never had the opportunity to realize in your lifetime.And turn this possibility into your experience, as experience value, and become the nourishment for your growth. "

Hearing the misunderstanding in Mei and Kiana's tone, Hestia was taken aback, then stretched out a finger and shook it gently in front of her.Touching the apple next to it and taking a bite, Hestia was afraid that Kiana and Mei would not understand or even did not know where to take out a blackboard and draw all the functions of the gift on it.

"To put it simply, if you have exercised your strength for a period of time, then I can extract an experience called exercised strength from your experience, so that the strength that you would have needed to improve after a long period of exercise is now Get it in a short moment, that's it."

"The basic ability is subdivided into the values ​​of five items: strength, durability, dexterity, agility, and magic power. Each item has ten levels. The more you use it, the faster the value will increase.

Among them, the level of the basic ability is one thing, and the level is another. As long as the level rises by one level, it will be strengthened in addition to the bonus of the basic ability. There is a huge difference between 1v1 and 1v2. The gap, which is the so-called one can hit ten. "

At this level, even Qiyana, whom Liu Yun dubbed Paramecium, understood, and even started to get excited with his eyes glowing.

For Kiyana, gaining power may be relatively small on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is the gift Hestia mentioned and the monsters she met in the dungeon, which made Kiyana have a real feeling. It feels like playing rg in virtual reality.

Most importantly, she saw magical existences such as elves, half-orcs, dwarves, and Amazons that only appear in fairy tales.Or maybe Hestia's last sentence, I can type ten of them for Kiyana to listen to.

"I'll stop here for the basics. As for which family to join or not to join, I won't interfere."

Liu Yun is serious about this point. Hestia and Bell are the only two members of the Hestia family, and they are still the lowest-ranked family members. The resources they have are completely better than other families.At this time, the right to choose is always in the hands of the girl herself.

"These things can be discussed later, the most urgent thing is to have a good rest. Liuyun~ I'm hungry."

Hestia also nodded after hearing Liu Yun's words.Although this goddess looks stupid, it is undeniable that she is also a wise goddess.

Although she doesn't have Freya's eyes that can see through the soul, she still has enough experience.She knows what it means to be Liu Yun's comrade in arms.Because Liuyun is a 'monster' who has enough combat power without engraving the gift.But all she, Hestia, wanted was family.

"I don't care, I want to hold my thigh." Kiyana said without hesitation after touching the gold coins in her pocket.

Kiyana has already clearly remembered the truth that following Liuyun has sweetness, isn't it a fool not to hug her thigh at this time?In order to better hug her thighs, Qiyana thought that she could look for the book "One Hundred and Eight Kinds of Thigh Hugging" to observe after she went back.

What's more, Kiyana, whose mouth has already been raised, guessed that she would not follow Mei or Liuyun only if she was being stupid.
