Arp Mountains were located in the west of Lister. It was a range of deserted mountains.

Most of the mountains were covered with snow that didn’t melt all year round. From the mountainsides to the foot of the mountains, there were spruce forests. Although these spruce forests were not as vast and boundless as the primeval forests, there were also many wild animals hidden within them and even magical beasts. If one was not careful, he would be in danger. Compared with other places, the environment here was much worse, so the residents of Lister seldom came here.

Looking at the mountain range in front of him, Locke couldn’t help but doubt, “Is there really a black iron mine in this mountain range?”

“In the depths of the mountains, I felt a kind of strange stones. This should be the black iron ore you mentioned, right?”

Her eyes retreated from the mountains. Athena turned to Locke and said. As Arp Mountains were located on the border of Lister, she didn’t pay much attention to it. Just now, she checked it carefully and found that there were indeed some different rocks on the ground.

“It seems that there are some black iron ores. We are going to make a fortune!”

Hearing Athena’s words, Locke couldn’t wait any longer. He jumped off the horse and said, “The road in the mountain forest is rugged, and the horses are not suitable for walking. It seems that we need to walk in.”

As he spoke, he had tied the horse to the tree.

Looking at Locke’s greedy face, Athena smiled speechlessly. “Look at you, it’s just a kind of ores.”

“You say it easily. You are not the lord and don’t need to worry about the expenses of the territory.”

Locke retorted unconvincingly, pouting.

Soon, the two tied up the horses and were ready to set off.

“Wait, I have a faster way.”

Locke had just taken two steps when he was stopped by Athena.

“What is the method?”

Locke turned his head in confusion. When he saw the sly smile on Athena’s face, he suddenly had a bad feeling in his mind.

The next moment, he felt a burst of huge divine power enveloping his body. Then, a strong sense of weightlessness came.

When he came to his senses, he was more than 10 meters away from the ground.

“I am… I’m flying!”

Looking at the more distant ground, Locke’s voice was trembling lightly. He couldn’t believe it.

“I’m a god. Isn’t it normal for me to know how to fly?”

Looking at Locke’s frightened face, Athena asked with a light smile.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you could fly in the air?”

“Have you ever asked?”

Locke: “…”

Half an hour later.

Puff~

The two fell to the ground and stepped on it again. Feeling the soft touch from the ground, Locke breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, his face was a little pale. It was still a little scary in the air of dozens of meters.

Although he had taken a plane in his previous life, it was completely different now. There was nothing under his feet during the whole process as if he was stepping on the air, giving him a sense of fear that he would fall at any time.

After taking a few deep breaths, Locke’s pale face finally recovered a little.

“Have we arrived?”

Locke looked around curiously but found no traces of ores around.

“There is still some distance, but there is an interesting thing here.”

Athena looked ahead as if she had found something interesting.

Howl~

Just as Locke was thinking about what Athena meant by the last sentence, he heard a wolf howl.

A magical beast?

Locke didn’t hesitate. The fireball spell in his hand had taken shape. When he was about to throw the fireball spell out, Athena reached out her hand to stop him.

Seeing this, Locke scattered the fireball spell in his hand. Since Athena thought it was okay, he didn’t have to do that.

A few seconds later, a huge silver-white figure appeared in front of the two.

Looking at this sudden appearance of the magical beast, Locke was slightly stunned, his face a little surprised.

‘This is the same ice wolf king that attacked the carriage when he first arrived in Lister!’

However, Locke sensed a stronger aura than before from the ice wolf king. “Did this ice wolf king become a level-2 magical beast?”

“This ice wolf king has a special bloodline,” Looking at the ice wolf king, Athena analyzed, “There seems to be an ancient power in his blood. It should be the blood power called in this world.”

Locke was shocked by Athena’s explanation. Wasn’t the blood power only available to the powerful races passed down from ancient times?

For example, the dragon race, Beamon Giant Beast, Phoenix, and other powerful races. This ice wolf in front of him also had the blood power?

When Locke was amazed, the ice wolf king stared at Athena with a hint of humane fear in his big eyes.

Looking at the ice wolf king, Locke couldn’t help laughing. It seemed that the ice wolf king in front of him was scared by Athena’s attack.

There seemed to be a flash of struggle in the eyes of the ice wolf king. Then he slowly walked towards Locke and Athena as if he had made up his mind.

“What does he want to do?”

Locke was confused. It seemed that the ice wolf king was not going to attack the two of them.

However, the small universe in his body still started to revolve, secretly mobilizing the divine power to prevent the sudden attack of the ice wolf king.

Under Locke’s confused gaze, the ice wolf king approached the two of them.

“Waah~”

To Locke’s surprise, the ice wolf king stopped 2 meters away from them and began to growl. In that voice, Locke seemed to hear a hint of… Flattery?

Yes, the ice wolf king was flattering them!

“Do you want to follow us?”

Looking at the ice wolf king, Athena asked.

The ice wolf king nodded quickly and then whispered twice in a flattering way.

How could ice wolf king be so intelligent? Locke felt a little curious. Normally, before level 4, the magical beasts had some intelligence, but they were still unable to think like humans. Their intelligence was equivalent to a child of 7 or 8 years old. Only when they reached level 4 and the brains of magical beasts had been completely developed.

It was said that level-8 magical beasts could transform into humans.

“I can’t make a decision. This is his place. You need to ask him.”

Athena shook her head with a smile and looked at Locke.

“Ask me?”

Locke was speechless. This kind of thing didn’t need to ask him. Moreover, Athena should already know how he would choose.

Hearing Athena’s words, the ice wolf king turned his head to Locke, with obvious flattery in his big eyes.

Of course, Locke was looking forward to having a level-2 magical beast in his side.

“You can follow us.” Locke nodded and reminded, “But you can’t kill anyone after arriving in the territory, okay?”

Hearing Locke’s words, the ice wolf king let out a joyful groan and nodded his head quickly.

Locke found that the ice wolf king was quite cute.

Since the ice wolf king had lived here for so long, he should know where the black iron mine was. Thinking of this, Locke asked the ice wolf king, “We are looking for the black iron mine. Do you know where it is?”

But Locke found that he was wrong. The ice wolf king looked at him in confusion, as if he didn’t know what the black iron mine was.

Seeing that Locke and the ice wolf king were staring at each other, Athena smiled helplessly, left them behind, and walked deep into the mountains. “The black iron mine you mentioned should be in front of us. Let’s continue walking.”

Chapter 37 Found the Mineral Resources and Called the Third God

The two and a wolf continued to walk into the depths of the mountain range.

The jungle became low and finally disappeared. A scene full of black gravels appeared in front of Locke and the others.

To everyone’s surprise, the gravels were not ordinary rocks. They were sharp edges, and they were black crystal stones that had been smashed, reflecting a deep luster in the sun.

It was an open-air mine!

Locke trotted over and picked up a crystal-like ore. Feeling the coldness from the ore, he breathed more heavily.

Yes, this was the appearance of the black iron ore he had seen on the books!

“It’s really the black iron mine!”

Holding the ore, Locke shouted as he waved at Athena behind him with an excited expression.

Athena also walked up slowly and looked at the ores in Locke’s hands.

The ice wolf king tilted his head and sniffed at an ore on the ground. Then he walked away in disgust. Seeing Locke holding the ore excitedly, his eyes revealed a kind of humanized doubt.

Was the man stupid? Locke held a stone and giggled?

“Ding~ I have detected that host has obtained a black iron mine.”

“Congratulations to host for obtaining a summon card.”

The familiar cold voice of the system came to Locke’s mind again.

An opportunity to summon?

Was this double happiness!

Looking at the summoning card in the system zone, Locke was extremely excited. Without hesitation, he took out the summoning card and was ready to summon.

Seeing that Locke took out a mysterious card, Athena seemed to have guessed something. She stared at the card quietly with a curious expression.

With Locke’s click, the summoning card trembled slightly, and the light door appeared in front of Locke for the third time.

“Is this the door of summoning?”

Staring at the light door, Athena’s face changed slightly, and a strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes. “The power of summoning gods at will might have surpassed Zeus, the king of gods.”

The universe was vast and boundless, and there were indeed more mysterious and powerful existences.

Divine light full of the light door, a tall figure stepped out.

A few seconds later, a muscular man with a giant hammer appeared in front of the two men and a wolf.

The strong man looked around in surprise.

“God of forging, Hephaestus.”

Looking at the strong man, Athena called out his name.

“Athena?”

Hearing that, Hephaestus’s face froze. He was surprised to meet an acquaintance. He put the hammer on his shoulder and smiled, “It seems that I’m not the first person to come here.”

Locke didn’t expect that he would summon the god of forging, Hephaestus, this time!

‘Wow, it’s the system, what I lack comes!’

The joy in Locke’s heart was indescribable. He restrained his excitement and greeted with a smile, “Hello, Hephaestus. I’m Locke Capet.”

When Hephaestus walked towards Locke, he shook slightly as if he was limping, but it didn’t affect his speed at all.

“Locke…”

Curiously looking at Locke from head to toe, Hephaestus smiled and reached out his hand. “Hello, Locke.”

After greeting Locke, Hephaestus waved at ice wolf king and said, “Hello.”

The ice wolf king looked at Hephaestus with a little fear. He also felt a threatening aura from Hephaestus.

Seeing Hephaestus greeting him, the ice wolf king responded with a low voice.

Locke felt funny when he saw Hephaestus greeting the ice wolf king. This god of forging seemed to be more enthusiastic than Asclepius.

Hephaestus picked up the black iron ore on the ground, nodded, and said with satisfaction, “Well, not bad. There are ores that can be used to forge here. Although the quality is a little poor, they can still make a lot of things.”

Locke finally realized that this god of forging was really obsessed with refining skills.

“Since we have found the location of the ores, let’s go back first. I’ll arrange for someone to mine.” Looking at Athena and the newly summoned Hephaestus, Locke suggested with a smile.

Athena nodded in agreement. Then she looked at Hephaestus and the ice wolf king and said with a faint smile, “You two, go back by yourselves.”

After saying that, Athena and Locke turned into a beam of light and flew towards the direction they came.

“Although the divine power in my body is not strong, it is still possible to follow them.”

Looking in the direction where Athena and Locke disappeared, Hephaestus turned to the ice wolf king and said, “Then I’m leaving now. You go back alone.”

After saying that, Hephaestus floated up and flew in the direction of Athena.

Seeing that everyone had left, the ice wolf king began to run wildly. Although there were many stone bushes in the forest, they did not affect the speed of the ice wolf king at all. In a few breaths, the ice wolf king had disappeared from the open space and entered the forest.

In midair, Locke opened the attribute panel.

Unknowingly, there were already three gods. Looking at the gradually enriched attribute panel, Locke was in a good mood.

In about forty minutes, Locke and Athena arrived at the place where they had tied the horses.

A few minutes later, Hephaestus also arrived.

To Locke’s surprise, the speed of the ice wolf king was also quite fast, but less than ten minutes behind them.

As soon as the ice wolf king appeared, the two horses became restless. Although the ice wolf king had restrained his hostility, the natural pressure brought by the level-2 magical beast still made the two black horses jump uneasily.

If they flew over like this, the residents of Lister would be scared to death. Therefore, the three of them decided to choose a low profile. The ice wolf king naturally became one of the riders.

Just as the three of them were discussing who would ride the ice wolf king, the ice wolf king took a weak look at Hephaestus and moved closer to Locke and Athena.

“It seems that I can only ride a horse.”

Seeing the ice wolf king’s expression, Hephaestus shrugged his shoulders and seemed to have some regrets.

And Athena seemed to prefer riding the horse, so only Locke was left.

The ice wolf king squatted down obediently to let Locke sit on him.

Locke found that riding on the ice wolf king didn’t make him uncomfortable as he thought it would be.

“Let’s go!”

Riding on the ice wolf king, Locke felt a little proud suddenly in his mind. The ice wolf king roared and ran towards Lister.

Howl~

A howl of a wolf passed through the buildings and spread in the residential area of Lister.

“Damn it! Wolves are coming to attack our territory!”

The expression on Kotter’s face changed and he rushed out with his bid sword. Judging from the wolves howling just now, the strength of the wolves coming this time was much stronger than last time.

In addition to Kotter, Kerton and the others also rushed towards the wolf howl with weapons.

Click~ Click~

It was getting closer!

Hearing the sound of sharp claws rubbing against the ground from afar, Kotter and the others couldn’t help but tighten their grip on their weapons.

“They are coming!”

Kotter reminded Kerton and others.

At dusk, a vigorous figure rushed to the residence area of Lister.

“Something is wrong…”

Looking at the figure of the giant wolf, Kotter narrowed his eyes and seemed to see something incredible.

On the back of the giant wolf, there seemed to be a familiar figure.

The moment they saw the figure clearly, both the guards including Kotter and the residents who came to help with defense were completely petrified.
