"Two things? Okay, I agree. Mister Wu Tong, please tell me, and I will do my best to help."

Doma Taihei pushed up his drooping glasses and said.

Wu Tong pressed down one finger and said, "The first thing I want to do is scan your body to obtain information about your Demi-Human abilities."

"Don't worry, it's just a scan. It won't have any effect on your body, and it won't take long."

"There is nothing wrong with that."

Doma Taihei nodded without refusing. It was just a scan, not a slice, and a scan wouldn't take long.

To be able to settle a condition so easily was an incredibly good deal for him; to be honest, he felt like he had made a profit.

Seeing Doma Taihei's completely indifferent expression, Wu Tong nodded almost imperceptibly:

He is neither arrogant nor humble, grateful and repaying kindness, and not obsessed with power... This Doma Taihei is indeed a promising talent.

Doma Taihei then asked, "So, Mister Wu Tong, what is the second matter?"

Wu Tong snapped out of his thoughts, then pressed down with his second finger and said with a smile, "The second thing is that I want to recruit you to work for me."

"Recruit... me?"

Doma Taihei was somewhat incredulous; he had never imagined that he would be recruited by Wu Tong, a powerful figure.

It would be a lie to say that Doma Taihei wasn't tempted by Wu Tong's offer.

After all, through Wu Tong's words, Doma Taihei had already gained a general understanding of the ghostly things in the underworld and was able to make a judgment.

His current strength is only enough to protect himself, and even that is sometimes a problem, let alone actively provoking others.

Therefore, for the sake of their own and Xiao Mai's safety, the best course of action at this stage is to seek and attach themselves to a powerful force to obtain protection and survive peacefully.

As the most mysterious, knowledgeable, and powerful people he had ever met, Wu Tong and his two companions naturally became the best solution in Doma Taihei's mind.

Only...

Do I really deserve this qualification?

After the initial surprise, Doma Taihei's expression returned to calm, and he said in a somewhat self-pitying tone:

"Before I knew I was Demi-Human, I was just an ordinary person. Even after becoming Demi-Human, my strength is not enough to be recruited by you, is it?"

"After all, whether it's strength, combat experience, or knowledge and understanding... I don't seem to have anything that you would be interested in..."

Wu Tong interrupted Doma Taihei's self-pity with a light laugh, and then said:

"Hehe... You don't need to be so self-deprecating. The things you're talking about are not a problem for me."

"After all, these things can be improved through training, and my organization happens to have a complete training system for them."

After finishing speaking, Wu Tong paused, then First Revolution seriously and said:

"Compared to these things, I admire your character more. Abilities can be cultivated, but it is much more difficult to change one's character."

"And not to mention, you are a person of outstanding character and ability."

"So, now that I've encountered this opportunity, I naturally can't let it go."

After saying that, Wu Tong looked at Doma Taihei's face and silently added in his mind:

'Of course, Xiao Mai is the most important one; you're just an extra.'

Before transmigrating, Wu Tong was a typical homebody who never left his house.

As a male otaku, Wu Tong naturally has his own anime goddess.

Coincidentally, Doma Umaru was one of Wu Tong's former two-dimensional waifus.

So, since they've met by such a coincidence, it must be fate's arrangement, and Wu Tong naturally won't let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slip by.

Even if it's just for collecting stamps, I'm determined to have Doma Umaru!

Doma Taihei, of course, was unaware of Wu Tong's sinister intentions. Upon hearing Wu Tong's words, he was immediately moved to tears.

As the saying goes, a woman adorns herself for her lover, and a man dies for his confidant.

The fact that such a big shot as Wu Tong appreciated him so much made Doma Taihei feel an urge to accept his invitation immediately.

(Similar to Cao Cao's courteous treatment of scholars and Liu Bei's three visits to Zhuge Liang's thatched cottage during the Three Kingdoms period. Of course, it wasn't quite that exaggerated, but the core idea was the same.)

Of course, that's what he thought, and that's what he did.

"Since Mister Wu Tong has put it this way, it would seem ungrateful of me to disagree, so..."

Doma Taihei solemnly declared, "I am willing to join your forces!"

"Hey, don't rush to agree yet, I haven't finished speaking!"

"After I finish speaking, you can think about it carefully. After all, if you really agree, you'll have to leave here with me."

Although Wu Tong found Doma Taihei's answer helpful, there were some things that needed to be clarified beforehand, otherwise it would be troublesome to explain them later.

Doma Taihei scratched his head. "Leave?"

"That's right."

Wu Tong nodded and said with a smile:

"As you've probably noticed, our clothing is completely out of place in this world. You might think it's from the other world, but that's not the case..."

"To be honest, the three of us are actually from Otherworld."

"That means if you agree to join my faction, I will take you with me to develop in my Minecraft when I leave."

Otherworld...

Upon hearing Wu Tong's words, Doma Taihei fell silent.

He wanted to join Wu Tong's forces and seek protection, that's true. He was also willing to join Wu Tong's forces, work for Wu Tong, and even go through fire and water for him.

But he never even considered running away from home! And this isn't just leaving home, it's leaving his own world! This isn't just work, it's practically selling himself!

Working for someone else is one thing, but selling yourself is another.

Wu Tong was not surprised by Doma Taihei's silence.

After all, the ties to one's country and family are not something that everyone can easily abandon, especially for someone like Doma Taihei who values relationships; making such a choice would be even more difficult for him.

Fortunately, Wu Tong wasn't in a hurry, and the positive impression she had of her future brother-in-law made her very tolerant of Doma Taihei Wu Tong.

So, seeing Doma Taihei's conflicted expression, Wu Tong thought for a moment and spoke again:

"No need to rush, take your time to think it over. I'll give you a week. Once you've made up your mind, just come here and tell Yotsuya Miko. She has my contact information."

Having said that, he didn't care whether Doma Taihei had heard him or not.

Wu Tong then began scanning Doma Taihei's Demi-Human physique on his own, collecting information about his Undying Body.

He had long coveted the Undying Body inherent in Demi-Human physiques.

Although the current Demi-Human bloodline is of no use to Wu Tong, a Sixth Order powerhouse.

However, Wu Tong's purpose in scanning the Demi-Human body was not merely to obtain Undying Body, but to obtain information and data about Undying Body.

Don't forget, Wu Tong has the cheat code of the Wisdom Divinity. The Wisdom Divinity can use the collected information to integrate and upgrade the abilities Wu Tong possesses.

In this way, as long as Wu Tong uses the Undying Body of Demi-Human as the core, combined with the Authority of life, Resurrection techniques, healing techniques, the power of time, and the power of restoration...

If he were to integrate all the knowledge he had accumulated about immortality into his Undying Body, he might be able to successfully construct Authority or Divine Grid related to immortality.

After gaining the Authority over immortality and Divine Grid, his strength didn't increase much, but his ability to survive increased by dozens, or even hundreds of times.

So, now that Wu Tong has seen something that could help him, how could he possibly give it up?

And so, with one person remaining silent and the other diligently studying, the room quickly fell into tranquility.

At the same time.

Just as silence fell over the room where Wu Tong and the other person were, Hestia was in her house.

That's how things are.

While enjoying fruit and snacks, Hestia explained things to Yotsuya Miko and the others, and finally finished explaining the origins of the three of them and the story of Orario.

However, even though Hestia was freeloading, she didn't forget her purpose.

So after she finished speaking, Hestia immediately turned her gaze to the four people in front of her (Miko's Mom, Yotsuya Miko, Yotsuya Kyosuke, Yuri River Hua).

Then, with a look of anticipation, he extended an invitation:

"So, how about it? Would you like to consider joining my clan?"

"If you join, you'll become the pillars of the clan."

"And once you join my clan, I will be your protector. Except in our world, where I cannot use divine power, I am a true god in other worlds, so you can rely on me!"

Upon hearing Hestia's invitation, the four people in front of her finally snapped out of their shock.

However, after regaining their senses, the other three did not rush to express their feelings, but instead turned their attention to the dazed Yotsuya Miko, waiting for her to make a decision.

The others weren't fools. After learning that Yotsuya Miko had obtained the Dimensional Chat Group, a divine artifact that could connect all the heavens, they knew that her future had entered an unknown realm of Infinite possibilities.

Yotsuya Miko will definitely become stronger and stronger in the future, possessing Infinite future!

Therefore, under the strong genetic instinct of the Plaster Country, the three of them subconsciously regarded Yotsuya Miko as the person with the most say in the matter. So, this major decision that would determine their future naturally needed to be made by Yotsuya Miko, the person with the most say.

Feeling the gazes of the others, Yotsuya Miko understood their thoughts and immediately began to ponder them carefully.

Hestia, though still smiling, was incredibly nervous inside when she saw this.

Even though she was very nervous, she just looked at Yotsuya Miko and didn't say anything to disturb her.

After all, the kind of family she needs are those who can walk together with her in the future, through Myriad Realms, not thugs recruited through threats or by taking advantage of others' kindness.

And so, time passed little by little.

Finally, half an hour later, Yotsuya Miko looked up again, her eyes flashing with determination, as if she had made up her mind.

"I've made up my mind... I agree to Hestia Familia."

Indeed, after more than half an hour of deliberation, Yotsuya Miko finally decided to join Hestia's kin.

As for why he chose to join a clan instead of developing his own path?

The reason is actually quite simple:

First, there's the issue of growth rate.

Having experienced what happened today, Yotsuya Miko desperately wants to have great strength to protect herself and her family and friends.

If she were to grow up on her own, even with extraordinary opportunities, she wouldn't have the starting capital (Points).

Relying on the Points daily reward points to quickly level up is simply wishful thinking.

Therefore, in this situation, acting cute, clinging to someone's leg, and asking for help to find a backer becomes the best option.

Secondly, there's the issue of resource acquisition.

Their world has very few extraordinary resources, and most of them are hidden in the shadows and difficult to obtain.

(Yotsuya Miko was unaware that their world was a Fusion world, and that all the extraordinary powers in the Composite Anime World were hidden in the darkness, making them indeed difficult to obtain.)

In the world of Hestia, all the extraordinary resources are merely superficial; the resources are far more abundant than in their world, and they are also much easier to obtain.

In this way, Hestia Familia would be more beneficial for their early capital accumulation.

Then, there's the issue of security.

For some time now, the matter of Evil Spirits has kept her on edge, and the matter of Ghoul has left her terrified.

Having gone through all of this, Yotsuya Miko Yotsuya's nerves were already stretched to their limit, and if any more pressure were applied, they might break down one day.

Therefore, in this situation, she desperately needs a strong support system to help her, a pillar of support for her soul.

And Hestia's last words just now coincidentally matched Yotsuya Miko's current emotional needs.

In addition, she is also a deity with great power.

Therefore, it is perfectly normal for Yotsuya Miko to be tempted under these circumstances.

Finally, the thought of repaying the kindness.

On this point, I must say: the hero saving the damsel in distress may be a bit cliché, but it is indeed very useful!

As Yotsuya Miko lay dying, Hestia descended from the sky, not only saving her life but also helping her defeat her enemies...

This behavior Perfect World aligns with the story's theme of a hero rescuing a goddess.
