Dragon of the Root

Chapter 175: Gorgon Stone

"From the contents of the prophecy, this seems to be the Divine Authority Heretic God, and there are only a few gods associated with the Gorgon Stone."

Wu Ming held his chin with both hands and looked at Alice and Erica.

"The most important are the three Gorgon sisters, Medusa, Stheno, and Euryale."

"But I don't think that the Gorgon Three Sisters, who have been reduced to monsters, have no desire to destroy the world."

After that, Wu Ming said casually with a face: "In short, give me the Gorgon Stone now, and I will settle this incident."

Alice and Erica looked at each other, then nodded.

....

At night, Wu Ming lay alone in the study. The table was full of books, and the books on the shelves were different from the previous ones. All the books here have been replaced by Erica.

All were replaced by books on myths and stories, and the books on Wu Ming desk were all books related to the Gorgons.

Wu Ming took the Gorgon Stone in his hand and looked at it carefully for a while.

The Gorgon Stone shape is an obsidian medallion with a Gorgon portrait engraved on it.

Seeing this Gorgon stone like Medusa head, Wu Ming couldn't help but sigh: "This doesn't seem like an ordinary artifact."

Wu Ming had seen divine artifacts before becoming a Campione, and it was the young man he had met after coming to this world, Kusanagi Godou.

The stone slab in his hand is a magic book, that is, a divine artifact.

Wu Ming didn't misjudge his senses just for being a Campione. Just like that. He could clearly feel that the power contained within this Gorgon Stone was not that simple.

As

"The divinity of a god" said Wu Ming lightly.

Wu Ming who had a golden sword slashing divinity, could feel that the power in this Gorgon stone gave him a feeling like he had once used a pseudo gold sword to slash Heretic God Verethragna.

"I just don't know if the golden sword has any effect on manifested divinity." Wu Ming stroked his chin, then shook his head.

"No need to do anything, let's record the knowledge of the Gorgon first."

After that, Wu Ming picked up a book on the table, opened it, and said, "Please, Chrys."

"Yes, Master." The dragon horn on Wu Ming head flashed, like a scanner, and a golden light shone on the book in Wu Ming hand.

For almost a few seconds, Chrys brushed off the scanning beam.

"Master, is it necessary to pass on that knowledge to you now?" Chris asked.

"Send it straight away, time is tight after all," Wu Ming said before closing his eyes.

After a few seconds, Wu Ming opened his eyes.

"No matter how I look at it, I think it's great to have you there, Chrys." Wu Ming smiled.

"It's just that you are lazy, Master." Chrys said in a somewhat helpless tone.

After all Wu Ming did have a photographic memory now, but with Chrys, why would he bother spending his time and energy slowly reading these tales himself.

"Un~ Doesn't this reflect your interests, dear Chrys~"

"Hurry up and move on to the next book, and try to import all the knowledge of the Gorgon before going to bed."

"Yes~"

However, no matter how you listen to it, Wu Ming feels that Chrys voice is a little shy?

Wu Ming and Chrys continuously repeated the cycle of scanning, knowledge transfer, and knowledge acceptance.

....

The next day, Wu Ming who was sitting at the dining table yawned.

Erica couldn't help but say: "You didn't really read all the mythology yesterday, did you?"

Erica couldn't help but remember what Wu Ming had said after the conversation with Alice and Erica yesterday.

"Erica, please send a book on mythology to my library. The first Gorgons, please."

After that, Erica complained and contacted the staff of <Copper-Black Cross> deleting all historical records and materials on European magic in Wu Ming overnight study and replacing them with books on mythology. Erica put a lot of books in another room, waiting for Wu Ming to change clothes after reading books in the study.

Even though Erica complained when contacting <Copper-Black Cross>, the staff of <Copper-Black Cross>, including her commander Paolo, all smiled and said: "Compared to the other Campiones, Lord Wu Ming is very good to serve."

That's right, as long as it doesn't cause trouble everywhere, let alone all the books on mythology, even if Wu Ming wanted to play the commander of the <Copper-Black Cross>, Paolo would unconditionally agree.

When Wu Ming heard these words from Erica, Wu Ming expression was quite strange.

Wu Ming couldn't help but think: Are Campiones so troublesome for mages?

Even though he couldn't believe it, a Campione was a troubled existence to others.

No matter how honest Wu Ming was and how he didn't cause any trouble, no one could relax.

Madame Aisha, who was known to be the least willing to fight among the seven Campiones, also possessed the power of a natural disaster. Once hit by accident, it was even scarier than the eldest Campione Marquis Voban.

Wu Ming had dinner and said to Erica: "Not a big deal, but I have the existence of Chrys, and it was only a short night yesterday."

Wu Ming had already told Erica about Chrys whereabouts so he wasn't afraid that Erica wouldn't understand.

On the other hand, Alice, who had been out of touch with Wu Ming for a long time, was quite interested in the Chrysanthemum in Wu Ming mouth.

At this time, the golden dragon horn on Wu Ming head appeared and said: "Actually, Master is just sleeping lazily."

"Then you are wrong." Wu Ming took a bite and continued: "Now I feel that the bed is the greatest invention of mankind."

"Sorry, Chrys won't believe it." Reply Chrys.

Alice watched the conversation between master and servant with great interest, and then she asked Wu Ming.

"Lord Wu Ming, is this Miss Chrys also your Divine Authority?"

After taking a sip of milk, Wu Ming replied: "It's fine to say. You can also think of Chrys as a super high level divine artifact with autonomous consciousness."

In fact, Wu Ming was right to say it. Wasn't Chrys, who connected with Wu Ming soul and became a Noble Phantasm, his strength? Wasn't the Divine artifact that belonged to him that was considered the Heretic God a divine artifact?

"Lord Wu Ming really is an interesting person~" Alice smiled.

It was impossible for Wu Ming not to be special.

After all, he was known as a Campione who was a Heretic God.
