After taking a look at the bag Zheng Shu handed over, Atalanta still didn't want it. After all, in a sense, she had already taken advantage of the other party.

Even half the body of such a big wild boar was enough for her to sell it for a lot of money.

Although she had spent a lot of time and equipment to capture this wild boar, due to Zheng Shu's unexpected intervention, the wild boar's originally expected final struggle was easily resolved by Zheng Shu.

"Take it, I have other uses for the half of the wild boar, so the money is equivalent to me buying pig skins from you." Zheng Shu directly threw the bag containing the coins into Atalanta's hand, turned around and looked Looking at the wild boar in front of him, he shrugged, "Besides, I don't have any knives on me, so I have to ask you to help me cut it. All this will be considered as your labor and materials fee."

"Okay." Although she is upright, Atalanta will not refuse this kind of business that comes to her door.

Nodding, Atalanta stuffed the money bag into her arms, took out the knife she carried and walked up to the wild boar.

"Interesting, I didn't expect you to be a devout believer, even though you believe in a lot of gods." Atalanta played with the gold coin in her hand, throwing it up and down and catching it again.

In this era, the purchasing power of gold coins is still strong enough. For such a powerful wild boar in front of you, one gold coin can basically buy its skin. Atalanta originally thought that the bag the other party gave her would contain a few silver coins at most, but she didn't expect him to be so generous.

However, such a large reward also made Atalanta explode with all her strength. In a short time, she completely peeled off the skin of the huge wild boar and cut and packaged the meat inside.

However, when she turned around after completing the dismemberment work, she discovered that the strange-looking man in front of her had actually begun to place the cut pork in special patterns on the ground for worship.

"It doesn't cost any money, just trust me." Zheng Shu responded with something that seemed quite treacherous in this era. After consuming nearly half of the wild boar meat in his share, he finally completely built the altar for worship.

"Gods, I dedicate this prey to you." He clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and muttered.

Zheng Shu also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. After all, although he had thanked Poseidon for the emergency sacrifice before, there was no sacrifice after all. Zheng Shu was afraid that the stingy gods of ancient Greece would remember this incident. on his own head.

In ancient Greek mythology, there are many tragedies that occur due to the anger of the gods due to poor sacrifices. Zheng Shu did not want to be walking on the road one day and be suddenly hit by a wild boar and break his waist. As for making offerings to other gods, in fact, in order to be able to pray for the gods' help at critical moments, Zheng Shu has been making offerings to the gods on time based on the information on the scrolls for so many years.

After all, these ancient Greek gods are not machines that only know how to respond according to the rules. They all have their own personality and personality. They do not have good relationships at ordinary times. At critical times, they only want to rely on a few sacrifices and want others to help, even if His relationship with the three Gorgon sisters is a little too wishful thinking.

Moreover, due to the influence of the Chinese people's natural character of only worshiping useful gods, and the guidance of the thought of "no money anyway, just a little faith", Zheng Shu unknowingly accepted almost all the gods of ancient Greece as his worshippers. object.

Anyway, it's just a matter of writing a few more symbols representing the gods when offering sacrifices. It is enough if the number of sacrifices is always maintained at half of the prey caught.

Fortunately, in a sense, most of the gods in ancient Greece are related by blood, so these gods do not exclude people with multiple faiths like Zheng Shu.

After praying for a while, Zheng Shu opened his eyes and packed the remaining wild boar meat in wild boar skins.

"It's really rare that someone actually offers sacrifices to the gods so seriously, and it's the highest level of sacrifice. Warriors like you generally prefer to ravage enemies as sacrifices to the gods. Are they?" Atalanta watched Zheng Shu's actions with interest.

Contributing half of the food you harvest to the gods at once is basically the most top-notch way of offering sacrifices in daily life besides the rituals held during major festivals.

Even if Atalanta has such faith in the goddess of hunting, most of her daily offerings are just a verbal thank you. Only on the full moon day of each month will she specially bring out some offerings to make substantial sacrifices. of worship.

That's half of what you gain. This kind of proportion of offerings is not an amount that anyone can easily bear. After all, everyone has to live.

Except for people like Zheng Shu who have a bit of a gamer mentality, everyone else who can do this level of worship is all a fanatical believer of a certain god.

As for humans like Zheng Shu, who used this level of specifications to worship all the gods at once, Atalanta could only say that she was indeed a little ignorant and had never imagined that there could be such a existence.

"I don't like to ravage the enemy. If I can kill him, I usually kill him directly. Giving the enemy a chance to show his bravery in battle is the stupidest choice in my opinion." Zheng Shu's tone was very calm.

Atalanta showed a beautiful smile when she heard this: "Your attitude would be called a coward here."

"Rather than being called a coward, I prefer dancing on other people's graves." Zheng Shu picked up the wild boar meat on the ground and turned to look at Atalanta, "Lead the way, you are still standing there. What are you doing?"

"Huh?" Atalanta suddenly became wary, "What do you mean? I never said I would leave with you, right?"

"But you at least know where the nearby villages are, don't you? There is so much meat on this wild boar, you can't expect me to eat it by myself before it goes bad, right? And the skin of this wild boar also needs professional Only craftsmen can make it into clothes. I don’t have this skill. Do you know how? Don’t worry, I will definitely reward you for showing you the way.”

Atalanta tilted her head, her beautiful forehead wrinkled, as if she was thinking about Zheng Shu's words. After a while, she nodded and agreed to Zheng Shu's proposal.

"Okay, I agree to your employment, but my fees are very high, so you have to be mentally prepared in advance."

"No problem!" Zheng Shu showed eight teeth and gave a thumbs up to Atalanta. "The reward will definitely satisfy you. After all, money is not very important to me."

Atalanta thought about Zheng Shu's act of worship just now, but actually approved what he said: "That's true, this is the first time I have seen a fanatical believer like you... I have only heard people say it before. However, I didn’t expect that there would be people who worship the gods so enthusiastically.”

Zheng Shu blinked, knowing that Atalanta had misunderstood him, but Zheng Shu had no intention of explaining. It seemed that his identity as a fanatic could be a good cover for him.

Now that the next itinerary was determined, Atalanta did not hesitate too much. She directly grabbed two hooves and carried the half-remaining wild boar on her back. The petite figure overlapped with the huge wild boar, and it seemed that There is a huge impact.

Of course, Zheng Shu raised his head and glanced at the ball of wild boar meat on his back, knowing that his image was actually not much better.

"Let's go, I ran a long way to chase this guy. We need to be faster to get to the village before dark." Atalanta nodded to Zheng Shu, "If you lose him, , I won’t stop and wait for you.”

Carrying nearly a ton of pork on her back didn't seem to have any impact on her movements. Like an agile leopard, Atalanta rushed into the woods carrying a huge load. Just a few jumps could make ordinary people... He lost her figure in his vision.

Zheng Shu looked at Atalanta who was leaving quickly, and slightly tightened the pigskin package on his back to follow, but before leaving, he intentionally or unintentionally glanced back at the altar he had just built.

There, the pile of pork had disappeared.

Zheng Shu didn't say anything, just shrugged, moved his steps, and quickly followed Atalanta in front.

Atalanta, who was moving quickly in the jungle, suddenly felt something approaching quickly from behind. She turned around and saw that Zheng Shu was following her. After a little calculation of his speed, Atalanta's eyes flashed with surprise, but she didn't say anything more and just silently accelerated her pace.

Zheng Shu, who had just caught up with Atalanta, glanced at the figure that was quickly moving away in front of him and twitched his lips. He didn't say much, but silently increased his speed.

But Atalanta was also a hero famous for her foot power in ancient Greece. Zheng Shu could keep up at first, but soon felt it was difficult. However, Atalanta in front seemed to be paying attention to Zheng Shu's movements. Seeing that he was struggling to follow, she did not continue to increase her speed. She just kept the distance between the two parties at a standard of not too far or too close.

Seeing Atalanta slow down, Zheng Shu smiled. Although he sounded fierce, Ta Miao was indeed a very gentle person.

Under the inhumanly high speed of the two people, it took the two of them less than an hour to reach the village that was originally very far away from Atalanta.

Looking at the wall built with heavy wood outside the village, Zheng Shu took a few breaths. The dragon's physique allowed him to recover quickly, and it only took him a few breaths for his body to reach its peak again.

But taking a look at Atalanta in front of her who was not breathing or even sweating, Zheng Shu felt a little ashamed inexplicably.

According to the normal routine of time travellers, shouldn't it be that he suppressed Atalanta at extremely fast speeds, and then attracted her to fall in love with him, and in the end the two of them lived a life without shame, right?

Why was it that he had strengthened his dragon bloodline and could run so fast that he almost died, but in the end he couldn't even force the opponent to reach his true speed?

Something's wrong! Something is very wrong!

Zheng Shu had already begun to doubt whether he had really taken the protagonist's script.

"You are very fast. No one has ever been as fast as you before." Atalanta's voice awakened Zheng Shu from his own memories.

Zheng Shu raised his head and glanced at Atalanta, then suddenly thought of something and stretched out his hand: "Thank you for your recognition. Speaking of which, we haven't officially met yet. Let me introduce myself: My name is Zheng Shu. Thank you very much for your introduction." s help."

Atalanta lowered her head and glanced at the palm that Zheng Shu stretched out in front of her. She immediately understood that this was some kind of meeting ceremony for the other party. After a little hesitation, Atalanta also stretched out her hand and made the same gesture as Zheng Shu. His posture: "Atalanta, there is no need to thank me. You spent money. Even if you say so, I will not reduce the charge."

Zheng Shu unceremoniously stretched out his hand and shook Atalanta's hand. Of course, in order to prevent the other party from going crazy, it was just a touch: "Don't worry, you will never be short of your reward."

Atalanta retracted her hand as if she was electrocuted, staring at Zheng Shu warily like an angry lion. Her other hand was already holding her bow and arrow, for fear that the other party would do something bad to her again. thought. However, the person in front of him did not continue to look at him. Instead, he seemed to be a little distracted.

But soon Zheng Shu regained his attention, smiled at Atalanta and took the lead to walk into the village.

Watching Zheng Shu leave voluntarily, Atalanta carefully observed her palm to make sure that there was no strange magic on it. In the end, she could only blame the behavior just now on the other party's unique meeting etiquette.

Walking in front, Zheng Shu looked very happy, even his steps became much easier, because just now he had obtained a new enhanced template.

[The user has come into contact with the carrier containing the unknown factor and started testing the sample]

【checking……】

[The test is completed and a reinforced template has been established based on the carrier sample]

"Panel, name this enhanced template Atalanta." Zheng Shu muttered silently in his heart.

[The command has been confirmed. 】

[Enhanced Template: Atalanta has been named. 】

"Panel, does this enhanced template have flaws similar to those that require me to change my gender?"

【Calculating...】

[This enhanced template does not have any additional requirements for enhanced use. 】

"Very good." Zheng Shu showed a satisfied smile.

Isn't it just that my athletic ability is not as strong as that of my opponent?

If an ordinary person achieves this kind of goal, it may take many years of training, but for Zheng Shu, it is not that troublesome, after all, he is a man with cheats! I admit that your legs are very strong, but now, I am just as strong.
