Even though the gods are essentially nature spirits, the persona given by mythology has become part of their souls. If the chief god were to be defeated by the earth god, he would surely be ridiculed.

"If the Dungeon encounters a god of innate rules, then this world would be considered a god of acquired nature."

Ming Ge murmured, "The disguises given by mythology are also at the rule level, and gods do not depend on faith. As long as the mythological stories do not disappear, mythology will not disappear, which is equivalent to a god of acquired rules."

Given enough divine power, these disobedient gods can also unleash power comparable to that of the gods of the underworld.

No... it might even surpass that, after all, there is no limit to the body formed from ley line energy.

Although... Last King, who is said to be able to destroy stars, struggles to destroy a continent.

"As long as I can keep killing gods, or even devour the entire mythology, I can speed up my mastery of the celestial realm by returning to the DanMachi World."

Located within Ming Ge's body, Gaia from the Starry World also spoke, "Find the medium, construct the formula, and I can control the operation of the formula."

Just as Pandora, the primordial mother goddess, was well-suited to wield the Ring of Usurpation, Gaia was also well-suited to control this ritual.

After all, they are the Earth Mother Goddess, and inclusiveness is their characteristic. In fact, many powers in this world were developed by stepping on the corpse of the Earth Mother Goddess.

"A meteoric rise!" Ming Ge exclaimed.

This world is adept at achieving instant success, and it's also very suitable for it.

It can transform a mortal into Campione! with a demigod-like body, and it can also help Ming Ge acquire a great deal of power.

The gods in the DanMachi World are hard to kill, but the mythology of this world is quite appealing.

Furthermore, what it devoured were not the spirits that were the gods themselves, but rather the disguises they wore.

I remember there were only about a hundred elves in the entire world, and each elf wore many different disguises.

For example, Athena not only possesses the divine qualities of Metis, making her the same person as her mother, but she also has the divine qualities of Medusa, a classic case of "I kill myself."

Besides these, there are other lesser-known names like Neith, Anahita, Anat, Asherah... She alone has dozens of aliases, and even an original alias that has been forgotten by the world.

An ancient African earth goddess.

For example, Mecar was not only the king of the Mediterranean gods, but also possessed the divine attributes of Saint George, Melka, Baal, Ba'al, and Beelzebub, and was also regarded as Heracles.

He is a god-king, a dragon-slaying hero, and a demon, and in this world, there is also the saying that demons equal dragons, which shows how chaotic the mythology of this world is.

Chapter 159 Kusanagi Shizuka and the Robbers

Sardinia is the second largest island in the Sicily Mediterranean after Italy, and it boasts beautiful scenery, making it a great place for tourism.

It's worth mentioning that Sardinia in this world experienced a divine war three months ago.

The war of the gods was fought between Mecar, the god-king of the Mediterranean, and Verethragna, the Persia god of war.

The first to appear was Verethragna, the invincible god who longed for a battle that would defeat him, and thus came here to awaken the king of the Mediterranean gods.

The final result was a lose-lose situation: Mecar was severely injured, Verethragna's ten incarnations were also scattered.

Now, three months later, Mecar's injuries are almost healed, and the avatars of Verethragna are almost complete, ready to continue the unfinished war of the gods.

At that moment, at her grandfather's request, a young girl arrived at the place with a stone tablet depicting Prometheus stealing fire from the heavens.

"It's a headache, I don't understand Italy at all."

Kusanagi Shizuka, now a high school student, was having a bit of a headache and could only find someone to talk to while gesturing with her hands.

She was a cute girl with short hair tied in two adorable little braids.

Although she is petite, she always gives the impression that she will grow up to be a 'Yamato Nadeshiko' type, and will definitely be a stunning beauty with a curvaceous figure.

"Grandpa, really! He made me, a girl, run all this way to deliver a stone slab. What if I encountered danger?"

After exchanging ideas for a while, Kusanagi Shizuka, who had finally gained some insights, couldn't help but complain.

Although I used to run around the world with my family when I was little, I wouldn't panic too much even if I were alone in this situation; but I am still a girl, and it is still quite dangerous for me to travel alone.

She should have refused, but she seemed to have lost her mind. She suddenly felt like traveling and agreed without considering anything else.

"Indeed, it's not safe for a young girl to travel alone."

Ming Ge suddenly appeared beside her, and surprisingly, no one around seemed surprised.

"Huh, I can understand... it's Japanese."

Kusanagi Shizuka looked up in surprise at Ming Ge, a hint of delight in her eyes, and asked, "Are you Japan too?"

No, I am China.

Ming Ge dismissed her question, smiling as she said, "I just have a tiny bit of knowledge about various languages."

"That's great! I didn't know what to do when I arrived in a place where I knew no one."

Kusanagi Shizuka was slightly surprised, and then started chatting with Ming Ge.

This is a skill she honed from a young age; she can communicate freely with others even in an unfamiliar place, a skill she was trained in by her grandfather from childhood.

"Lucretia is a famous witch on Sardinia. As for the address... let me see. We can get there by following this road."

Ming Ge drew a line on the map prepared by Kusanagi Shizuka.

"Grateful."

Kusanagi Shizuka thanked her gratefully, then asked curiously, "Speaking of which, what is a witch? Does Sardinia really have such a strange profession?"

"It's not just in Sardinia, it happens in other places too."

Ming Ge laughed and said, "Even you Japan have quite a few shrine maidens, don't you?"

That's true.

Kusanagi Shizuka suddenly realized.

"By the way, why did you travel alone?"

Ming Ge asked with a smile in her eyes.

"Is that so?"

Kusanagi Shizuka took out a stone slab from her backpack and said, "This is a stone slab that my grandfather got from somewhere. He said I should return it to its original owner..."

"This, in the industry it's known as Prometheus' Grimoire, it's kind of a magic book."
