Chapter 108 Hecate
"I can feel a new power in my heart!" Xing muttered to herself, and the note in front of her slowly dissipated.
The appearance of [Carmen] has also changed. She is dressed in black, with a red cloak, three pairs of eyes on her head, and chains in her hands that bind two ferocious monsters.
……
"How do you feel?" Alvin asked with concern as he looked at Xing who had opened her eyes.
"It's better than ever! After the Kamoshida incident, Shiho went to school normally. Although the previous competition was not ideal, everyone worked hard. I thought these knots had been untied, but I didn't expect that I was still worried about that incident..."
"When Zhifan jumped off the building?" Ivan asked.
"Yeah... and about the things that happened before that, I was always concerned about the fact that I was doing useless things. I should have noticed these things sooner, and I didn't do anything. But now I understand, and I won't be like before. After we finish in Futaba's palace tomorrow, I want to go find Shiho!", A smile spread across Ann's face.
"Of course! Do you want me to go with you?" Alvin nodded and held Xing's hand.
"Well... no need! I just want to say something to Shiho." Xing shook her head and rejected Ivan.
"Huh? On the page, my mask seems to have changed! [Hekate] is this her name?" Xing lowered her head and saw the page about herself in the [Book of Power].
The original name of "Carmen" was changed to "Hecate".
"This name looks so familiar! It seems to be? Greek?" After hearing what Xing said, Yusuke raised his head and said to Ivan and others.
"Oh? Just like my Kidd, has it evolved?" Long Si also raised his head. He spent a lot of effort, reflecting, meditating, and setting goals, and the mask finally evolved.
Xing was able to evolve just by sitting there for a while. I’m so envious.
"Greek? Let me see!" Alvin stood up and walked to the bookshelf and began to search. The [Book of Power] floated in the air and followed him.
He had previously bought mythology books from various countries in the world. Although he had not read them himself, Kara had already classified them.
"Oh! Found it!" Alvin took out a thick book, then came to the table and sat down. Everyone gathered around him, including Shinjima Makoto who was still studying.
Hecate is a Titan in Greek mythology. Together with Artemis and Selene, they are called the three goddesses. They also have other names such as: Goddess of Magic; Queen of Ghosts; Goddess of the Underworld.
There are many words associated with Hecate: ghosts, hell, magic, witchcraft and so on.
She is the famously irresistible god of death, the queen who cannot be defeated or surpassed by anyone, the creator and administrator of Hell.
The following content is about the origins of some of the deeds. Whether they are true or not has not yet been determined, but it should represent the public's perception.
There was a rustling sound on the pages of the [Book of Power] next to him. Alvin looked over and the content of the Greek mythology that he had just read began to emerge on the pages.
"I feel... Hecate's power seems to be stronger! It's like she's perfected. In addition to being able to manipulate fire and cast spells that add abnormal states, Hecate seems to be able to open the gates of hell and summon creatures from hell!"
"That's not it!! Doesn't that mean I can summon an army of ghosts?" Long Si was so excited that he jumped up.
"You're overthinking. You can only summon two at the moment." Xing made a "yeah" gesture.
"What? Just two! I thought it would be a legion or something." Long Si sighed.
"It will gradually open as energy is absorbed. This Hell's Gate is equivalent to Xing's own summoning space. The energy dissipated by killing the shadow will be charged into the Hell's Gate, serving as nourishment for summoned creatures and increasing the strength of the Hell's Gate." Alvin explained to everyone.
"Huh? This is the skill of Xing's mask. How do you know, Alvin?" Niijima was a little confused.
Alvin spread out the Book of Power again, which contained information about the Gate of Hell.
"Awesome! Can you connect to my Monkey King?"
"Let me try!" Alvin said, and asked Long Si to sit aside.
Everyone was also paying attention to this scene.
After the pages of the book flipped, a picture scroll began to form. The image of the Monkey King with a rock and roll style appeared on the screen together with Long Si.
Perhaps because he had already untied the knot in his heart, Long Si did not experience any illusions, but directly awakened a passive skill and an active skill.
[Indestructible]: Melee attacks do not consume physical strength, and the player is immune to physical attacks and firearm attacks; [Havoc in Heaven]: Attack all targets within range simultaneously, causing 9 stages of extremely large damage.
[Fuck! 9 stages? Extra large? What's the point of Yoshitsune? As long as he's not immune to physical attacks or has rebound absorption, he can kill anything with one charge. At least he can kill 3 Akechi.]
“It’s really amazing!” Long Si also saw the introduction on the book page. Long Si finally turned things around!
Others were also eager to see if they could become stronger.
But after trying everyone else, there was no result. The [Book of Power] did not respond or give any prompts.
"It's getting late, so let's leave it at that for today! Let's go back first! We can try again later. Have you written the notice letter? Let's gather tomorrow morning and deliver the letter together. I'll tell Futaba about it in the evening, otherwise Boss Sakura won't let us enter that gate!" Alvin checked the time.
"It's finished. It's here! Just bring it to Futaba tomorrow!" Yusuke showed the preview letter in his hand.
Although the others felt a little regretful, they still left one after another.
"Yusuke, why don't we buy the courtyard next door? This way we will have more rooms. Sometimes when it's too late, we might as well just stay here! Except for Ryuji's mother who is at home, everyone else seems to live on their own. Shinjima's sister doesn't seem to come home often. It's also troublesome to ask Kara to take her home all the time." Ivan asked for Yusuke's opinion.
"I don't have any objection. It depends on your decision... I can move to the dormitory, but as for you... how are you going to do it? It will take some time, right?" Yusuke said that it was okay for him, but Ivan would have no place to live.
"It's okay! Just tear down the wall, buy all four courtyards together, and transform them into quadrangle courtyards. But the road in the middle will have to be blocked, which may be a little difficult. But it should be no problem. This place is not a central area anyway, so just spend a little more money." Ivan thought about it and called Kara to ask her to make arrangements tomorrow.
Just knock down the courtyard wall, form a big circle, and connect the buildings in the middle with corridors. As there will be more and more people in the future, the base will naturally have to be built bigger. Then just make some adjustments to the yard, and then simply decorate and ventilate it, and you don't have to worry about too much formaldehyde.
