Chapter 584

Athena happily went home.

After a while, Ren returned to the Temple of the Furnace alone. As soon as he entered, he saw Elder Titan sitting on the tall stone chair again. However, he did not study the giant's tome, nor did he maintain the huge furnace under the hall. Instead, he looked contemplative. color.

He heard footsteps, looked up and saw that it was Ren, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Ren, come here."

Sorim took out a whole set of tables and chairs made of Titan blue iron from nowhere, the size is suitable for the human body, and it is a popular style in the empire. There are tea sets and snacks on the table, and he warmly welcomes him: "Let's sit Let's talk."

Ren was a little flattered.

This is a powerful demigod, perhaps even stronger than the teacher, comparable to the former Master Ogulev, the top powerhouse in the mortal world.

"The elder is polite."

Ren obediently sat down at the table, facing Elder Titan.

Solim, who looks like a majestic middle-aged man, has blond hair scattered casually, a short beard, and bronze-like skin. He is only wearing a simple and elegant white robe, which is tied around his waist with a belt, revealing his thick arms and feet. .

Anyone who sees him can feel the aura of a god.

If it is an ordinary person, he can't even stand firm in front of him.

Ren couldn't help but use the eyes of his soul to quietly observe the elder Titan who was sitting opposite him. As expected, it was similar to his observation of the holy soul wizard. , can still feel the power of terror.

It's not as bad as it used to be now.

He can't see through the details of the soul, but he can roughly judge the other party's emotions from the color.

At this time, Elder Tai Tan's soul color was calm white, mixed with a little light green color, which showed that he was in a very happy mood, and seemed to have some happy event.

Ren is relieved, as long as there is no malice.

Like a hospitable neighbor, Solim poured two cups of tea himself, and one floated in front of Ren.

"Thank you." Ren said softly.

"Drink it quickly." Sorim introduced: "This is the 'blue rock' produced by the elves. The annual output is only a few pounds, and it is specially used as a treasure for the high elf royal family. I don't have much in my hand. I take it out occasionally Once you taste it, it tastes best when it’s hot.”

Elder Tai Tan picked up another cup of tea and drank it down in one gulp, as if he was drinking alcohol.

Ren imitated him, pouring hot tea into his throat.

"How does it taste?" Solim asked cheerfully, with anticipation in his eyes.

"Uh..." Ren clicked his tongue. It really had a special flavor, as if it had a fresh forest smell, but he didn't know how to describe it. He had no interest in tea in his previous life, and he didn't pay attention to it at all. No matter how expensive the tea is, he can't drink anything. It would be more refreshing to give himself a bottle of happy water.

The elf's tea is even more bland and tasteless, and you can't drink anything.

He decided to tell the truth: "It's too bland."

"Hahaha..." Solim laughed suddenly, his voice shook the entire furnace temple, pointed at Ren with his finger, and said happily: "Not bad! Really good..."

"If you say a lot of compliments, I'll kick you out now." Elder Tai Tan waved his hand and put away the tea set and water on the table, and said with a smile: "This tea is indeed a treasure of the elves, and a pound is worth ten thousand gold. , let a lot of elves beat their heads. But only those delicate and exquisite elves can taste it, and the taste is too bland for us, no different from drinking water."

Ren secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, with the eyes of the soul, he vaguely guessed that this was a test for Elder Titan. Otherwise, he might really say a few compliments against his conscience.

Solim took out another crystal bottle: "You try this."

Ren took it over and looked at it. There was a light blue liquid in the palm-sized bottle, which looked like sea water.

Taking a closer look, this is not ordinary sea water at all, but diluted plasma, when it shakes, bolts of lightning burst out, like a storm in a bottle. If the bottle is smashed, it is estimated that a group of five-ringed electric explosion balls can be released.

His scalp is numb, can this stuff be drunk?

Looking up to meet Elder Tai Tan's gaze, it was obvious that the other party wanted to drink it by himself, so he could only unscrew the cap of the bottle with his hair straightened, and drank it in one gulp.

A pungent feeling went down the throat, tossed the sea in the stomach, and spread throughout the body.

Ren suppressed the discomfort and closed his mouth tightly.

However, after a few seconds, he couldn't help it anymore. This thing was too strong, and the violent breath rushed up, straight to the top of his head, and he couldn't help opening his mouth to spray out a blue energy, like lightning sparks, from his nostrils, eyes and ears. Squirt out.

After spraying, there is a warm feeling immediately, the whole body is extremely comfortable and reaches the soul.

"Cool!"

Radar let out a long breath of electrified breath, feeling a little over the top.

Suddenly found that his affinity for thunder and lightning has increased a bit, and he is more sensitive to the lightning element in the air. On the soul world tree, a new leaf grows next to the element of "Thunder and Lightning", a brand new element of "Thunder and Lightning Affinity".

There is such an advantage!

"Elder, what is this?" Ren asked quickly.

"Lightning Essence." Sorim replied: "I developed a potion that can increase the affinity of lightning, but only the first few bottles have the best effect, and it is useless to drink more later. People who are weak can drink it." It's just going to die faster."

Ren nodded.

The lightning essence is very exciting to drink, but it is not something ordinary people can bear. That is to say, one's body is strong enough, and it is poison to the extraordinary people below the legend.

"Can I exchange it with source crystals?" He rubbed his hands.

If there are a few more bottles of Lightning Essence and a few more Lightning Affinities, maybe you can advance to the second Lightning Form.

"No, I have a lot, I can give you some." Solim took out ten crystal bottles, all of which were filled with lightning essence. He also took a bottle and poured it into his mouth, the violent lightning energy entering his mouth was like drinking, a few flashes of electricity flashed in his eyes, and he showed a satisfied smile.

Ren was dumbfounded.

It turned out that Elder Titan drank the lightning essence as a drink. This kind of personal hobby, no wonder he didn't put it on the exchange list. He didn't show it when he was looking for Lei Ding's friendship, obviously he didn't want to give it away for nothing, and the relationship between the two parties was not that good.

Now willing to take out the essence of lightning, it shows that the relationship is no longer the same.

Ren happily accepted the crystal bottle.

These potions were put up for auction, and a bottle was worth thousands of gold shields, but it was more cost-effective to keep them for themselves. He opened a bottle of Lightning Essence and was about to drink it when he saw Elder Tai Tan was already drinking the third bottle, so he raised the crystal bottle and touched him.

when!

"Cheers." Ren said with a smile in the giant language.

Solim was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of this sentence, and said, "Cheers!"

The two drank the plasma in the bottle.

Sorim's reaction was not great, but Ren seemed to have drunk a large amount of chili water, his face turned blue and blue, and a flash of lightning spewed out of his mouth after a few seconds, his reaction was better than the first time he drank it , but still very exciting and top-notch.

"Cool!" Ren laughed.

Feeling that his sensitivity to the element of thunder and lightning has improved a lot, he immediately drank the third bottle, and a new piece of "Thunder and Lightning Affinity" grew on the soul world tree.

"continue."

Ren drank several bottles of lightning essence in a row, and when there were only three bottles left, the third leaf that was compatible with lightning grew on the world tree. Then no matter how much he drank, he drank all the remaining lightning essence, and the World Tree didn't move.

"Pity……"

He smacked his lips with endless aftertaste.

Lightning Essence is not spirits, but that peculiar smell is more effective than spirits to Ren. After drinking more than a dozen bottles, he was already a little dizzy. The soul is undergoing a subtle transformation, not a negative effect, but a positive effect, so the will of truth is not immune to it.

The three thunder and lightning affinity, as long as the luck is not too bad, the next time the soul changes, it should be able to advance to the thunder and lightning form.

Even if it is not advanced, the power and resistance of lightning spells have been greatly improved.

Ren stood up unsteadily, "Thank you, elder."

Sorim stopped after drinking four or five bottles, his face remained unchanged, he sat firmly on a mountain, waved his hands and smiled: "It's nothing, it's rare for someone to drink with me. Now we should get down to business."

"Okay." Ren sat down again.

Elder Titan asked, "What do you think of Athena?"

"very good, very powerful."

Ren's mind is very active now, and he habitually answered with an outdated buzzword from his previous life, and then assured him: "Elder, please rest assured, Athena will take care of her when she arrives in the main material world. But in the future With her strength, as long as you don't provoke the Holy Soul Wizard, no one can bully her."

He spoke the truth.

Don't look at Athena losing to herself, but she is a titan after all, and she is no less than a holy-rank extraordinary person other than a holy soul wizard in terms of strength and defense alone. In a real fight, I dare not say that she can win, at least there is no problem in saving her life.

And with the cover of oneself, backed by Wezelan Floating Void City, who dares to be so short-sighted?

"I'm not worried about Athena's safety, and I'm not asking about her strength." Solim shook his head slowly, with a strange look on his face.

"Then what do you mean?" Ren was confused.

"I mean, what do you think of Athena?" Elder Tai Tan stared at Ren with burning eyes, and asked very seriously, "Would you like to marry Athena as a spouse?"

"ah!"

Ren was taken aback, and suddenly regained consciousness.

He suddenly had the feeling of being asked about the date of marriage by his father-in-law at the wine table, but the process has not yet been completed. You have to be so direct, so you're in a hurry, right?

Seeing a little hesitation, Solim's eyes became sharp.

"Ren, don't you want to?"

"Uh... It's not a matter of willingness or not..." Ren didn't know what to say, the big beauty was delivered to the door, and she was still a titan, so of course he was very willing. But there is no free lunch in this world, such good things must have a price.

Who knows what this Titan elder wants?

He looked at Solim cautiously, and the eyes of the soul only saw a little orange, which was excited and eager, and not hostile.

"What's the problem?"

Sorim stared at Ren, which made him feel a lot of pressure. He lowered his head and listened to Elder Titan said: "Whether it is a giant's aesthetic or a human's hobby, Athena is a rare beauty in the world, enough to be worthy of You are gone, what more do you want?"

"Elder." Ren showed a embarrassed expression, and said frankly: "I already have several spouses."

"It doesn't matter." Sorim didn't care. "It doesn't matter how many spouses you have. Anyway, they are not Athena's opponents. I am not afraid of her being bullied. Who would dare? Hmph..." His eyes flashed danger , the breath soared for a moment, which made Ren's heart pound.

None of Viola, Oxilia, and Emily is a fuel-efficient lamp.

This small fish pond was originally very calm, and several fish did not interfere with each other. If Athena was put in, it would mean that a big shark came. Are there any other fish to survive?

Ren was silent.

Sorim continued: "Of course, in this world, powerful males always have many spouses, I can understand. If you have the ability to make them live in peace, as long as Athena is not bullied, I will not look for you Trouble."

Really? I do not believe!

Ren felt hehe in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. He asked curiously: "Elder, may I ask, why did you make Athena my spouse?"

The population of the storm giants is now in decline, and there is an urgent need to boost the population.

The giant race is also born with a gender imbalance. The male to female ratio is about four to one. Every female storm giant is a rare resource, and most male giants are bachelors all their lives.

With a female giant like Athena who possesses unrivaled talent, and her appearance is so beautiful, I don’t know how many young giants admire her, and instead of marrying her to an outstanding junior in the clan, they actually let her become a human spouse, and let those storm giants know , estimated to be insane.

In less than three minutes, a large group of storm giants will come to challenge themselves.

"Ren, you're fine." Solim nodded approvingly, "It's not in vain for me to be so optimistic about you if you can keep calm at this time."

I'm just timid, Ren said in his heart.

"The reason is simple."

Sorim smiled lightly, looked at Ren, and said without concealment: "Ren, I am very optimistic about your prospects, and I can also see your ambition. The main material world will become your territory sooner or later, at least The Orienth Empire will fall into your hands, so I want to build a relationship with you and go a step further, this may be a key step for the storm giant to regain its glory."

Ren was slightly startled.

Apparently, this Titan Elder had done an in-depth investigation of himself, possibly starting a few years ago, and did not regard himself as a pure trader.

He wants to marry himself.

Athena was that victim.

Ren did not deny his ambition and desire, and met Sorim's gaze: "Can I refuse?"

Elder Tai Tan was not angry, but smiled instead.

He could tell at a glance that Ren was not really refusing, but was bargaining, which was something he had expected before. He never thought that only one Athena could convince Ren, and he had already prepared other conditions.

Sorim sat up straight and stretched out two fingers: "First, as long as you agree, Athena will conclude a soul contract with you. Second, I promise to shoot you three times. If you die, this promise will be transferred to you Family heir."
