Skill extraction from Dragon Clan

Chapter 267 Tenaron City
"Should it be here?" Zheng Shu looked at the city gate in front of him and muttered to himself.

He is now in the city of Tenaron at the southern tip of the Peloponnese Peninsula. It is said that there is an entrance to hell. According to myths and legends, Hercules entered the underworld hell through here.

The reason why he came here was also because of the information that Zheng Shu had heard during the previous journey.

The news of the village where Ayer is located is indeed a little behind. Zheng Shu only found out after arriving in the city-state that Hercules had completed the No. 11 trials given by Eurystheus.

Because of Heracles' bravery beyond human common sense, the trials proposed by Eurystheus not only failed to get rid of his hated rival, but helped Heracles win greater honor.

Many people are grateful to Hercules and proclaim his name because he spared people a lot of suffering.

So the cunning king came up with the last adventure task, which is a trial that any heroic hero can't complete in theory, and now Hercules has accepted the No. 12 trial given by the other party. Refinement: Capture Cerberus, the three-headed dog of hell.

After all, no matter how powerful the hero is, the prerequisite for going to hell is to die.And letting Hercules die was originally the king's purpose, so once Hercules took over this task, whether he could complete it or not, King Eurystheus' purpose had already been achieved.

Unfortunately, this calculation of Eurystheus might have been successful if it was done in a later era. After all, in that era, the boundary between the living and the dead was completely cut off, and there was no other way to enter hell except death.

But in the Age of Gods, like many myths and legends, the so-called hell itself is deep underground. In theory, if someone has enough patience to keep digging down, even if he is a living person, he can reach hell.

Coincidentally, there is a natural gap next to Tenaron City that can lead directly to hell.

In fact, Zheng Shu didn't intend to go directly to Heracross at first, he originally wanted to wait directly in the Kingdom of Tirens, and wait for the hero who completed the twelve trials to return before obtaining a new strengthening template on him.

But just after Zheng Shu learned the news that Hercules was going to hell, he suddenly had an inexplicable feeling.

Zheng Shu didn't know where this feeling came from. If it was an ordinary person, it might be his own illusion, but at Zheng Shu's level of strength, the so-called "illusion" would basically not appear. According to the comparison of immortals, it is "On a whim".So he knew that this was his intuition sending out a reminder that he would encounter things that would have a great impact on him in hell.

That's why Zheng Shu gave up his original plan and hurried to Tenaron City.

To be honest, Zheng Shu has no detailed information on Hercules' trail. Even if Hercules is the most famous hero in ancient Greece at this stage, it is quite difficult to obtain his detailed travel path with current science and technology. difficulty.

But after arriving at Tenaron City, Zheng Shu will be able to obtain more detailed information.After all, the gap connecting to hell is the most important thing in this city, and there is even a special temple built next to it for guarding.

If Hercules wanted to go to hell through this gap, there would definitely be corresponding information circulating in the city.

So after Zheng Shu entered the city, he planned to find a tavern to inquire about it.

……

……

Because of the characteristic "landscape" of the passage leading to hell, Tenaron City has done a good job in commercial development. The most prosperous area in the city center even gave Zheng Shu a feeling of living in a small city in his previous life. illusion.

Walking on the street, ignoring the surprise of the people around him about his figure, Zheng Shu found a tavern that looked more authentic.

This tavern has obviously been around for some years, and even the protruding signboard is a bit battered, with a very abstract-looking pattern of a wine glass on it.

The reason why Zheng Shu chose this tavern was because the inside of this small-looking tavern was very lively, even in the daytime, lively laughter could be heard from inside.

In such a place, the difficulty for Zheng Shu to inquire about information can be reduced a lot.

Arriving at the entrance of the tavern, Zheng Shu took off his hood, pushed open the door and walked in. The old and dilapidated door made a harsh creaking sound when it was pushed, and this sound also replaced the completely corroded door. Bells were used by those inside as a signal to greet guests.

The bartender who looked extremely strong behind the bar couldn't help but stop what he was doing when he saw Zheng Shu coming in. His muscles tensed up, and the bustling tavern was also taken by Zheng Shu, a sudden outsider. The interruption fell into a brief silence.

After Zheng Shu's huge body barely squeezed through the door, seeing his height almost as high as the roof and his arm muscles thicker than the waist of ordinary people, there were a few voices of swallowing with difficulty in the silent tavern. sound.

Because of his large size, Zheng Shu even blocked the light coming in from the door after entering the tavern, making the small tavern feel dim for a moment.

The pretty waiter, who was constantly carrying drinks back and forth to each table, and occasionally dexterously dodged some salty hands, showed her amazing professionalism after being stunned for a moment.

After delivering the last drink and putting down the tray in his hand at the bar, the waiter came to Zheng Shu with a professional smile: "Is the guest alone? Want to order something? Our wine here is quite special .”

The voice sounds a little hoarse and lazy, but it also has a special feeling. If you use the words of the previous life online, it is probably the so-called "Yu Jie Yin"?
The figure looks quite tall, and the chest is bulging to support the attire similar to that of a waiter. The gap in the middle of the costume is just enough for people to see the depth in the middle without revealing too much.

The dress on the lower body is even hotter, a pair of slender thighs are completely exposed, and the short skirt is so short that it needs to be marked with holy light if the walking movement is a little violent.

However, compared to the other party's attractive appearance, Zheng Shu was observing other places.

Looking at the waiter standing in front of him who was still smiling easily, Zheng Shu's eyes revealed a fleeting curiosity: "Arrange a table for me... Can you stay here?"

"Of course no problem! Customers don't think our store is small. Our accommodation conditions are pretty good in this city. Not only is the cost low, but we can also help you pack a dinner..." Hearing what Zheng Shu said , the waitress's bright eyes narrowed with a smile, and her attitude became more enthusiastic.

While introducing, the waiter also brought Zheng Shu to a table, reached out and swept away the messy plates and wine glasses on the table, and immediately emptied most of the table.

The few guests who were eating at this table looked at Zheng Shu's terrifying figure.He didn't dare to say anything more, and even took the initiative to help the waiter pull his plate aside, to make room for Zheng Shu as much as possible.

"Don't be so troublesome, I'm just one person, just leave me a space, of course, it would be even better if you can help me wipe the table with a rag. In addition, serve these few people a glass of your signature wine here, It's my thanks." Zheng Shu stopped the actions of several people who wanted to keep cleaning up, after all, if they continue to clean up like this, these people will probably eat at other tables.

He is not a villain, and he will not get any pleasure from this kind of behavior of oppressing others.

"Okay, please wait a moment." The waiter was taken aback by Zheng Shu's request, but still smiled slightly and bowed to him, then twisted his slim figure and walked into the back kitchen.

After all, in ancient Greece, a person of Zheng Shu's size could be seen as the top hero at a glance.

Ancient Greece did not have the moral thinking of ancient China. For them, the oppression of the strong was a matter of course, and even a little kindness from the strong to the weak was enough to be called a noble personality.

So not only the waiters, even those guests at the same table who were forced to squeeze aside when Zheng Shu arrived also raised their glasses and smiled at Zheng Shu to show their thanks.

And Zheng Shu's behavior also restored the bustling appearance of the originally quiet tavern. After all, even a group of alcoholics who drink during the day must learn to watch people order food in the current world.

After a while, the waiter walked slowly towards Zheng Shu's position with a tray. She first helped Zheng Shu wipe his seat and the table in front of him carefully with the specially prepared fur, and then the waiter Only then did a few glasses of cold-looking wine be placed in front of several guests.

Of course, even if he didn't order food for himself, a glass of wine was placed in front of Zheng Shu.

"This is invited by our boss. It is an honor for a hero like you to patronize our tavern. This glass is our special wine, and the unique cool taste cannot be tasted elsewhere." Service Sheng once again bowed deeply to Zheng Shu.

Moreover, he deliberately turned the neckline that he had untied until then towards Zheng Shu, showing his proud talent.

It's a pity that the waiter's careful thinking didn't work at all. Zheng Shu's attention was not on her at this time. Looking at the wine in front of him, the corners of Zheng Shu's eyes twitched unconsciously.

If he hadn't made a mistake in his perception, there should be an aura of hell in this wine.

Of course, the breath is very light, even if ordinary people drink this wine, they will become a little weaker at most, and if they use the power of alcohol, they will probably seem to get drunk faster.

Basically, there is no big obstacle after sleeping, but if you drink too much of this kind of wine, when you are too old, it is very likely that the accumulated hell breath will explode early and lead to death—— It is the so-called discount life.

As for the cold taste... the moment of contact with the breath of hell is equivalent to dying, of course it will feel cold.

The production method is also very simple. Zheng Shu speculates that there is a high probability that stones obtained from the entrance of hell were added to the wine barrels during the brewing process. In a sense, this wine is similar to the ancient Romans who liked to use lead as wine jugs. operate.

It can only be said that fortunately the villagers in the Age of Gods are physically strong enough. As long as it is in modern society, any sub-healthy person may be admitted to the ICU after drinking this wine.

"You don't need to be so polite. I follow the teachings of the gods and don't like to owe favors to others." Zheng Shu once again raised the unknown gods as his own protective umbrella.

He casually took out a silver coin from the pocket next to him: "Help me some more meat, I don't need to serve any more wine, I still have things to do later, so I don't need to look for the remaining coins. But I want to ask, is there any news worth paying attention to in this city recently?"

Under the envious gazes of other guests, the waiter picked up the silver coin and stuffed it into the gap in his chest with surprise on his face, and winked at Zheng Shu several times in a row: "Okay, the food will be ready for you soon , wait a minute, I'll be right back!"

Squintingly glanced at the waiter's leaving figure, the drunkards on the same table as Zheng Shu gradually became more courageous when they saw Zheng Shu's operation: "Brother, you are very generous! But you are at a disadvantage if you do this. Yes, the waiters here are not as good as you can see, the only thing they want to do is to empty your money bag!"

"That's right, that's right, and brother, if you want to hear new news, you might as well ask us. These waiters stay here every day in the tavern, so there is no one like us who is well-informed."

"Oh? Thank you for your reminders. I listen to your thoughts. Do you have any special news?" Zheng Shu responded to the bragging of these people while passing the wine glass in his hand calmly.

Although the breath of hell didn't hurt him, he wouldn't really be big enough to drink it into his body, just to use it to bribe these alcoholics.

"Oh! Thanks! Brother, you are so kind!"

Seeing Zheng Shu push the wine glass over, the group of drunkards were not polite, and rushed to grab the glass of wine to their side.

In the end, an alcoholic who seemed to be the strongest among these people grabbed the wine glass by relying on his physical advantages, and then poured it into his mouth on the spot as if he was afraid of being snatched by others.

After putting down the cup and taking a long sigh of relief, the drunkard smiled drunkenly at Zheng Shu: "Actually, the one who has attracted attention recently is naturally that Hercules who has completed eleven trials, but I heard that he After accepting the new trial task, I lost track, and I don’t know if I escaped.”

"Of course, brother, you definitely didn't come here to listen to this kind of public news. If there is any news worth noting in the city recently, it is probably a hero named Hemer." side dishes, and then took a sip of his own glass of wine.

"I heard that he is very strong, and even defeated a guardian hero of this city, but he left here yesterday.

As for the other... I heard that a strange guy came from a nearby city-state. He claimed to be from the far east, and his name... seems to be Che Yeyun? "

The drunkard was still rambling on, but Zheng Shu was no longer in the mood to listen to his information.

Since no information from Heracles has been obtained here, it means that Heracles has not arrived here yet, so Heracles should still wash away his sins in the city of Eleusis in Attica, and Learn from the local priests the secrets that can resist the forces of hell.

From this point of view, Zheng Shu's arrival was relatively timely, but it was also normal. After all, even in the Age of Gods, places like hell were not places that ordinary people could enter casually.

Even if they enter hell as a living person through some tricky methods, ordinary creatures will be eroded by the laws and breath of hell before long, and eventually become real dead.

Only creatures with high enough divinity can resist it, but even real gods, if they are not gods of the underworld, will be eroded to a certain extent if they stay in hell for a long time.

So even a hero as powerful as Hercules must find a way to resist the erosion of hell.

Fortunately, the erosion of the breath of hell is essentially the same as the law-type attack, and it can be transformed by Zheng Shu's God's Armament, so Zheng Shu can directly save the time of searching for secret techniques and rush here in advance.
