Chapter 280: As Everyone Knows, Algol is Beautiful and Kind-Hearted

Is it really a bomb? Or is it an opportunity?

The Spirit Status of the Last King is absolutely a hot potato for others; after all, any Divine Spirit that can be linked to the Steel Hero can become the Last King.

And pray tell, in Little Garden, which gods have not been linked to Steel? Except for those pure Earth Mother Goddesses.

But which of the Earth Mother Goddesses doesn't have a side job as an Earth Star Spirit? They look down upon the Spirit Status of the Last King.

If any other existence possessed this Spirit Status, even Indra or a subordinate of Zeus, the outcome would definitely not be good.

Except for... the Halloween Queen.

The Halloween Queen, a Three-digit Exceptional who can exert her full power in Little Garden, fears no threats or challenges.

This is also the reason why, despite having few God Kings under her command, the Halloween Queen can still hold such a status in Little Garden.

In fact, the forces under the Halloween Queen can only be called second-rate among the upper echelons of Little Garden, not even first-rate.

Otherwise, why would the Halloween Queen's Community be named 【QueenHalloween】 instead of being called the Wansheng God Group?

Because with the Halloween Queen's state of just a few stragglers, it really cannot be called a God Group.

However, this also has to do with the Dystopia War back then; although the Dystopia War established the Halloween Queen's prestige and thoroughly solidified her status in the Celtic Divine Group.

But the Celtic Divine Group was shattered, and the entire West District back then was shattered.

And how long has it been since the Dystopia War? Just a few thousand years.

Even if the Halloween Queen tried her best to cultivate talent, Three-digits are not that easy to cultivate.

Even a force as strong and influential as the Cross Religion only cultivated one newcomer who reached the Three-digit level, Saint Joan of Arc, after the Dystopia War.

Not to mention other God Groups; after the Dystopia War, newly promoted Three-digits could be counted on one's fingers, and even the number of newly promoted Four-Digit Exceptionals could be counted.

This is even counting Canary, Kasukabe Takaaki, and others.

It looks like a serious talent gap, but in fact, this is the normal growth rate for heroes.

It is not the Dawn Period of Little Garden anymore, an era where Merit Gifts could be seen everywhere, and one's Spirit Status could even soar just by being lucky enough to observe a new world.

Growth in Little Garden now almost entirely relies on one's own struggle.

However, this also has one benefit, which is avoiding the generation of God Kings like in the Dawn Period who were Three-digits in name but in fact were not even a match for Four-Digit Exceptionals.

Existences who possessed the Spirit Status of a Three-digit but lacked the corresponding Authority.

The Four-Digit Exceptional heroes of today, once they ascend to Three-digit, are true God Kings, becoming the true power-holders of Little Garden with the corresponding strength.

Even if one were to submit a request to the Greek God Group to play as one of the Twelve Olympians, Zeus might even consider kicking Hermes out.

Of course, the difficulty of promotion is also far higher than in the Dawn Period.

There was no concept of Four-Digit Exceptional in the Dawn Period.

Of course, it is about the same now; apart from the Greek God Group, one does not see other existences deliberately getting stuck at Four-Digit Exceptional and hiding in the lower levels.

After all, things like Avatars are not non-existent; although the cost is a bit high, Avatars have the advantage of being safe.

With the harsh environment of the lower levels now, what if one is accidentally caught in the aftermath of Humanity's Final Trial? If the main body goes to the lower world and hides in the lower levels, then dying means truly dying.

Most are Four-Digit Exceptionals like Asura, who have condensed their Authority but are stuck due to a lack of Merit for their Spirit Status.

If it is truly as Su Nian said, that King Arthur is bearing the Spirit Status of the Last King.

Then the Halloween Queen is going to pick up a huge bargain; even if the Spirit Status of the Last King does not ultimately belong to Arthur, the difficulty of rebuilding a God Group using this opportunity is not high.

The birth of a new God Group often brings huge influence and Merit; the reason a God Group is a God Group is because when one person attains the Dao, their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

With the establishment of a God Group, if the master of the God Group is strong enough, it will greatly accelerate the growth of other gods belonging to the same God Group.

This is the function of the God Group worldview.

When it comes to the master of a God Group, who can be stronger than the Halloween Queen?

Athena had almost already imagined how wonderful the Halloween Queen's mood must be.

An opportunity to reorganize all the bad assets she inherited into high-quality assets—who wouldn't be happy?

Now, one can only hope that Su Nian can really pay off the favor as he thinks.

It's just that for some reason, Athena has a feeling that Su Nian is about to be unlucky.

Even if Athena thought with her own chest, she would know that the Halloween Queen would absolutely not let go of Su Nian so easily!

Having owed the Halloween Queen a favor, Su Nian's life is basically tied to her.

Based on her understanding of the Halloween Queen, the Halloween Queen will definitely not be able to resist using Su Nian to provoke Shiroyasha.

The two of them have been fighting openly and secretly for who knows how many years.

Athena hopes that Su Nian can withstand the firepower of the two of them.

Athena quietly picked up her teacup, drained it in one gulp, and then looked at Su Nian with a hint of pity and said.

"Alright, I'll go prepare first. If there's anything, you can contact me through this little one."

Saying this, Athena glanced at Yadaina and said.

Possessing a part of her essence, Yadaina can, in a sense, achieve sensory synchronization with her, two bodies with one heart, so naturally, contact is quite easy.

However, she did not tell Su Nian this, and Yadaina also tacitly accepted that she did not know about this characteristic.

Otherwise, Athena really wouldn't know what expression to use to face Su Nian.

After finishing, Athena stood up and waved at Su Nian with a smile.

"Goodbye, I hope next time we meet, you won't be so wary of me."

She has now truly staked everything she has on Su Nian... ah no, on Yadaina.

Although there is no difference, it is all in Su Nian's hands.

"It's really, really not pleasant, having to go confront Algol right away."

"Heh, I hate this person; just breathing the same air as her makes me feel sick..."

Whether it was intentional or accidental, Athena deliberately muttered a few words as she left.

"Pah, ugly woman!! Little Algol kindly helps you become beautiful and you're still not happy, right?"

After Athena left, Algol also popped out and cursed at Athena's gradually disappearing back.

"Hmph, don't blame Little Algol for not giving you Medusa's Spirit Status when the time comes."

In the competition for the Trinity Athena Spirit Status, she possessed the absolute advantage of being immortal, and as long as she was unwilling, this Spirit Status would always remain in her hands.

Algol glanced at Yadaina again, humming twice with an unhappy expression.

"That ugly woman is ruthless enough, actually planning to give up everything she has managed for so long."

"And here Little Algol was even planning to save her life."

Hearing this, Su Nian could not help but raise his eyebrows and said with a surprised expression.

"Eh? Little Algol, are you really planning to save Athena's life?"

Speaking of this, Su Nian asked somewhat strangely.

"Aren't you the one who hates Athena the most?"

Algol revealed a cunning smile and said very triumphantly.

"Of course, who told that ugly woman to turn Little Algol, the number one beautiful girl of Little Garden, into this state."

"But who told Little Algol to be beautiful and kind-hearted?"

As she spoke, Algol slid into Su Nian's embrace without any reserve, picked up Su Nian's teacup, took a sip, and said.

"It's just that Athena, that ugly woman, doesn't understand Little Algol's intentions."

Seeing Algol's unreserved appearance, Shiroyasha's eyelids twitched involuntarily, and she said with a somewhat surprised expression.

"Really, how did even Little Algol get conquered by a guy like you."

The corners of Su Nian's mouth curled up slightly with triumph; seeing Su Nian's triumphant expression, Shiroyasha felt even more annoyed.

Clearly, she had also fawned over Algol for a period of time back then, but the "white moonlight" of the past was now triumphantly sitting in the arms of her subordinate.

Where exactly did she and Su Nian differ? It couldn't just be that one plug, could it?

Shiroyasha thought with some indignation.

However, indignation aside, she did not know why Shiroyasha felt that Algol seemed even better-looking than before.

Slap!

"There was a mosquito."

Shiroyasha expressionlessly retracted her hand, which had been slapped bright red.

Su Nian looked with interest at Yadaina, who had switched places with Algol and was sitting beside her at some point.

Boss, one must not covet a friend's wife!

I was just helping you check, and I am a woman; what could I possibly do to Algol?

Shiroyasha blinked at Su Nian, telling him not to be so stingy.

Fine, Shiroyasha's skin was still thicker; Su Nian and Shiroyasha stared at each other for a long time, and in the end, Su Nian was the one who lost.

Actually, Boss, we could do it together.

Su Nian blinked at Shiroyasha, and Algol also nodded in agreement.

But the next moment, Shiroyasha looked at Su Nian in horror, her body subconsciously moving away from Su Nian.

Her heart was pounding wildly, and it could not calm down for a long time.

For some reason, at this moment, Shiroyasha felt that her heart had skipped a beat.

It didn't seem like a bad deal.

But the next moment, she corrected her thought; her will was as hard as iron, and it was impossible for her to give up a whole forest for Algol and surrender herself.

Shiroyasha was silent for two or three seconds, awkwardly put away her expression, sat opposite Su Nian, and changed the subject.

"That said, how does Little Algol plan to help Athena?"

Hearing this, Algol twisted her body very happily, changed to a more comfortable sitting posture, and said.

"That is, of course, to let that ugly woman become Medusa, and at the same time let Medusa become the 【Athena Reverse Demon】. With the help of this Spirit Status, the ugly woman will be able to become independent when she is being converged by the other Athena."
