Chapter 332: SFDI: Chapter 332
Because of Wiene, this trip to the Dungeon had to end early.
Taking Wiene, the two left the Dungeon, returning to the Hephaestus Familia headquarters. Stella took Wiene to her room, and Drake also returned to his room.
Drake hadn’t thought about what to do with Wiene yet.
In fact, like in the original story, letting Wiene return to her own kind wasn’t a bad option.
But Drake felt that with him around, Wiene could have a better choice.
She wouldn’t have to be trapped in the Dungeon, and could enjoy the sunlight on the surface to her heart’s content, seeing more scenery.
Because with him around, no one could hurt Wiene.
The only thing that Drake was worried about was that taking in Wiene would bring trouble to the Hephaestus Familia.
Ever since the gods had co to the lower world, the only way to co into contact with monsters was by entering the Dungeon.
And adventurers entered the Dungeon to kill monsters for fa and money, so they shouldn’t have any complaints about dying at the claws of monsters.
But humans weren’t entirely rational, especially after losing relatives and friends. They would naturally put their hatred on the monsters.
The era of monsters running rampant had passed for who knew how many years, but the fear and hatred of monsters had been passed down to the present.
If it was known that Drake had taken in a monster, then there would truly be enemies everywhere. When that ti ca, Hephaestus’s position would be very difficult.
Drake sighed. It seed that he still had to talk to Hephaestus about this matter first. So she could at least be prepared.
Unfortunately, the other path didn’t have a direction for the ti being. Otherwise, everything would be easily resolved.
Thinking this, Drake took out a notebook from his ring. It was Drake’s research notebook, the main content being research on the magic to revive Ignia.
This was the other path that Drake had thought of, using part of the research on the notebook on Wiene. If it was successful, Wiene would have a new life, at least not being rejected by others because of her appearance.
After learning in so many worlds, the theoretical part of the research had actually reached a very high degree of completion.
But unfortunately, Drake hadn’t personally experinted with it. Whether it could be realized was an unknown.
This was also what Drake was most worried about. Not only Wiene, Ignia’s revival also couldn’t rely solely on theoretically feasible technology.
But where was it so easy to experint with technology? On the one hand, Drake wasn’t good at this kind of experint to begin with. On the other hand, it was also because he lacked experintal materials.
Drake wouldn’t have no bottom line and randomly take people as experintal subjects. How could he possibly use technology obtained through that kind of thod to revive Ignia.
Putting away the notebook, Drake sighed. There was always a way to solve problems. He should focus on the things before him now.
With this feeling, Drake lay down on the bed.
The next day, before Drake could take the initiative to find Hephaestus, she found Drake first.
Looking into Drake’s eyes, Hephaestus said, "What exactly happened yesterday?"
Drake realized that sothing was wrong, saying, "I also want to know what happened to make you so serious."
Hephaestus sighed, saying, "You don’t know yet? Yesterday, the people from the Ikelos Familia were spreading everywhere that you had stolen their prey!
This isn’t a small matter. Openly breaking the Guild’s regulations will bring no small amount of trouble."
Drake really hadn’t expected that the Ikelos Familia, who was doing poaching, would dare to jump out and cause trouble.
However, the situation wasn’t too bad yet. The fact that Wiene’s existence had been exposed was the real trouble.
Drake could be sure that the people from the Ikelos Familia hadn’t seen him carrying Wiene, but he had to guard against them suspecting this point.
So Drake looked at Hephaestus, saying, "My god, please calm down first. I have more to tell you about this matter."
Stella’s room, Hephaestus sat in a chair, looking at the three people before her with a helpless look. Her overly serious expression made Wiene scared, hiding behind Stella.
"So you discovered a monster with reason in the Dungeon, rescued her from the Ikelos Familia, then even brought her to the surface!"
Drake said, "As expected of my god, you understood so quickly."
"Understood my foot!"
Hephaestus wanted to throw the teacup in her hand at Drake’s face.
"You should have co to discuss this with
earlier!"
Drake said with an embarrassed smile, "Wasn’t it because I ca back too late yesterday, afraid of disturbing your rest."
Hephaestus sighed for who knew how many tis today, no longer having the mood to lose her temper, saying, "According to your guess, that Ouranos guy knows about the monsters with reason."
Drake nodded, saying, "Compared to Wiene being special, I’m more inclined to believe that monsters with reason aren’t an exception.
Ouranos, who is responsible for guarding the Dungeon, couldn’t possibly not discover the abnormality of the Dungeon. And that can explain why there hasn’t been any related news before."
Hephaestus also knew that god’s style, thinking about it, it was really like that.
So she said, "Then what do you plan to do next? You have to know that that child is still a monster after all. There’s no place for her in Orario.
If it’s exposed, even you will be in a bad situation."
Drake smiled, stroking Wiene’s head, saying, "I knew that long ago. This child has the sa feelings and soul as us, so we can’t just leave her alone."
Hephaestus’s expression softened a bit, saying, "Since you’ve said that, then I have nothing to say. When that ti cos, if they want to find trouble, then let them try!"
Hephaestus’s aning couldn’t be any clearer. She would still support Drake like she had in the past.
Drake couldn’t help but feel a bit moved, saying, "Don’t worry, I won’t let things develop to that extent."
Hephaestus suddenly frowned, saying, "Then the imdiate problem is how to deal with the Ikelos Familia. If what you said is true, and the Ikelos Familia is really conducting poaching activities, then the problem might be simple."
Drake nodded, saying, "As long as we find evidence, they will naturally be unable to protect themselves, so they naturally won’t be able to find trouble with us.
We didn’t catch their tails when we swept away the Dark Faction before. Otherwise, we would have cleaned them up long ago."
The fact that the Ikelos Familia was colluding with the Dark Faction was actually an open secret to many people.
Especially after the fallen spirit incident, it had been confird that the Dark Faction was using the artificial labyrinth for their activities.
And the most famous adventurer of the Ikelos Familia, Dix, was a descendant of the Daedalus clan, who had built the artificial labyrinth.
But unfortunately, in the end, no evidence was found to prove that the Ikelos Familia was really related to the Dark Faction’s activities.
However, since the Ikelos Familia had attacked Drake this ti, Drake would naturally have to respond.
Then he would find the Ikelos Familia’s transport base for monsters, then directly expose their cris. In the end, he would directly defeat the Ikelos Familia.
Seeing that Drake already had an idea, Hephaestus didn’t say anything else. Drake’s past performance had been enough to make her trust him.
The key to the artificial labyrinth that he had obtained from the Dark Faction - the Eye of Daedalus - had been placed in the workshop by Drake, so Drake planned to take it back and search the artificial labyrinth.
But just as he left the mansion, a person walked out from around the corner.
That was a youth who looked quite thin, hunching his back, looking listless. However, he had a strange smile on his face, giving people an uncomfortable feeling at first glance.
Drake could clearly feel the divine power on the youth’s body. This seemingly dispirited youth was definitely a genuine god.
"God Ikelos, I wonder what you need
for?" Drake said the other party’s identity in one breath, also having so guesses about the reason for his appearance.
