Greece brings evildoers

Seeing his savior's painful expression of regret, Lorne quickly comforted him.

"Don't worry, I did it very cleanly. With Ares's brain, he will never be able to find anything on me!"

"So, he went to the Oceanus Sea to cause trouble for us?"

Thetis looked towards the opposite side, her silver teeth grinding together, her blue eyes filled with grief and anger.

"This, unexpected..."

Lorne smiled dryly and wanted to quibble, but under the eyes of the sea goddess who wanted to kill someone, he finally moved his head away with a guilty conscience.

Well, he did it on purpose.

He specially went to the seaside for a decisive battle, the protection and healing given to him by the power of the ocean, the incarnation of the ocean divinity [Giant Whale], and the aura of the [Foundation Gun] disappearing into the sea...

With so many factors added together, even Athena, who is known for her wisdom, would be confused and suspect the sea gods first, let alone the single-minded Ares.

What's more, the Olympus pantheon, represented by Zeus, has just attacked the Sea of ​​Oceanus.

Both the motives and reasons are terrifying enough.

By the way, the [Dice of Chance] on his body, coupled with the divine protection of literature, art and memory given to him by the Nine Muses, simply fills up the BUFF of doing good deeds anonymously.

Even if Ares projects his consciousness onto the Thracian King, the strong [accidentality] and [Divinity of Memory] at the scene will affect perception and memory, and be induced to make wrong judgments.

No, everything was just as I had rehearsed.

The only thing that was missed was that he was retrieved by Thetis, the goddess of the sea.

But this woman was a nymph who was known for her wisdom. She was caught in the act of shamelessly blaming the sea gods.

It's difficult...

Lorne raised his head and rubbed his chin, looking faintly at Thetis in front of him.

When she noticed the two eyes from the opposite side falling on her, the ocean goddess was suddenly startled. She subconsciously took a few steps back, hoping to directly use her gift of transformation to jump into the sea and escape.

However, before taking a few steps, a hand pressed her shoulder and pulled her weak body back to the fire.

"Don't be nervous. You are my benefactor. How can I repay kindness with hatred? Besides, if I really want to attack you, do I have to wait for you to wake up?"

This is true...

Thetis thought for a moment, lowered her guard slightly, and asked coldly.

"What do you want?"

"It's not what I want, it's what you want."

Lorne smiled, held up two fingers, and showed his openness.

"Now you have two choices: First, run out and tell the truth and hand me over. Of course, I will not admit it and will destroy all evidence against me."

Without thinking, Thetis simply discarded this answer.

It would be easy to sell the guy next to him, but it would be equivalent to directly offending Hestia, who was very popular, and the goddesses who had a close relationship with him.

For example, Athena and Artemis...

The current virtues of the Sea of ​​Oceanus cannot be resisted even by Ares making trouble.

What's more, the other three main gods?

"Second, pretend you don't know anything and keep the secret in your belly. In return, I will leave early tomorrow morning, and it will attract Ares' attention, but after that, Oceanus' affairs have nothing to do with me. ”

Thetis pursed her lips, turned her head and looked at the scarlet sea in the distance, and immediately understood what Lorne meant.

It was about his own safety. It was absolutely impossible for this little bastard to admit openly and take the blame.

His biggest concession was to lure Ares away once and add a few more suspicious targets.

But this is only treating the symptoms rather than the root cause. Once the person being chased disappears, the blame will still fall on the gods of the sea.

When the time comes, who knows what kind of revenge that reckless man who has been teased again will take?

Without Poseidon in charge, and with the deliberate suppression by His Majesty the God-King, the Sea of ​​Oceanus cannot withstand the torment.

What's more, the ones in front now are her sister and father.

Therefore, this is not a good way out.

After a moment of silence, Thetis slowly spoke.

"What about the third way? You probably have a plan that you haven't mentioned yet."

See, communicating with smart people is very comfortable.

At this time, a happy smile appeared on Lorne's face, and he raised his hand to applaud the ocean goddess' acumen.

"The third thing is that everyone should work together to solve the trouble in the Oceanus Sea."

Trouble in the Sea of ​​Oceanus? You weren't the one who framed me!

Looking at the shameless face of the instigator in front of her, Thetis suddenly felt a little angry.

But in the end, her consistent rationality allowed her to calm down quickly and question the feasibility of this plan.

"I'm no match for Ares, and as for you...it seems like I can't do it either, right?"

"There is no need to work hard, just a small sacrifice is enough."

Lorne shook his head, smiled, and his eyes immediately fell on the ocean goddess.

Thetis's heart trembled, and she subconsciously stood up from her seat, clutching her chest tightly.

"Look, I'm nervous again."

Lorne's eyes were filled with anger, and he raised his hand to pull the wary ocean goddess back to the negotiation table, while smiling to reassure her.

"Don't worry, it's not you, nor is it a marine god, it's another one."

"Really?" Thetis was doubtful.

"You are my benefactor! Will I harm you? If you don't believe it, I'm leaving."

Lorne straightened his face and pretended to leave the island.

Seeing that the bastard was about to run away after taking the blame, Thetis immediately pulled back the culprit who claimed to have a remedy, her pretty face turned slightly dark.

"explain!"

However, Lorne did not speak in a hurry, but asked meaningfully.

"Do you know the fastest way to cover up a lie that's out of control?"

Thetis thought for a moment and then slowly said: "A bigger lie?"

Lorne smiled and did not answer. Instead, he looked at the scarlet sea and spoke meaningfully.

"I heard that Aphrodite, the goddess of love, had a beloved lover in Cyprus named Adonis, but he had always been at odds with the god of war..."

"!"

In an instant, Thetis's face froze, and she realized the true plan of the man in front of her, and she lost her voice in shock.

"Are you crazy?"

"I didn't do anything."

Lorne spread his hands, looking innocent.

"I watched our Lord Ares descend to the realm several times and tried to compare notes with Adonis, but I couldn't find the shadow of His Highness the Prince. I was kind enough to help him."

"..."

Looking at the kind-hearted person in front of her, Thetis was speechless.

She didn't need to think about it, but she also understood that this guy was holding something bad in his stomach.

This was clearly intended to use Adonis's affairs to provoke a dispute between the two main gods Ares and Aphrodite.

As a result, the God of War naturally has no time to wander around the sea of ​​Oceanus, or continue to seek trouble from the ocean gods.

A few years later, when Poseidon returns after serving his sentence, even if Ares thinks of the past, he may not have the chance to make trouble like now.

However, this requires a prerequisite.

It doesn't matter whether you use lies to cover up lies or use disputes to calm things down.

Things on the island of Cyprus must be bigger than at sea!

That is to say...

Thetis looked at the smiling young god under the firelight, felt a chill in her heart, and bit her lips tightly.

"Let me think about it..."

"It doesn't matter. Ares doesn't dare to go too far just yet. You can think about it slowly."

Lorne smiled nonchalantly and stretched out his hand in a gesture of invitation.

"Or, at best, he might be a reasonable god."

As Thetis, who looked complicated, returned to her palace and closed the door, Lorne picked up a few dead branches from different trees around him, threw them into the fire, and watched with interest as they burned in the flames and turned into No distinction is made between each other's ashes.

In order to add a layer of insurance, the green forest heroes in ancient China often asked innocent defectors to obtain a certificate of surrender when recruiting friends.

——That is, doing a bad thing together.

In this way, each other can feel at ease by holding each other's hand.

Again, this is actually what Lorne himself is doing.

Since Thetis had seen through some of his little secrets, to be on the safe side, of course she took the opportunity to pull him into his own thief's ship.

And that lovely Prince Adonis is their certificate of submission.

Of course, even if she refused, Lorne would not retaliate and kill the ocean goddess who had just helped him.

When necessary, the worst possible thing is to use [Divine Memory] to mess up or tamper with some of her memories.

But in comparison, he still hopes that the ocean goddess who is smart enough can be on his side.

In front of the crackling fire from time to time, a sinister man who was planning to drag the good goddess into the water carefully reviewed the previous exchange between the two parties, raised his hand to rub his chin, and showed a thoughtful look on his face. Play with it.

Didn't you refuse directly?

So, she most likely knows where Aphrodite secretly hides Adonis?

What a surprise.

"Die! Die! Die! Die!"

The figure surrounded by blood on the sea continued to vent its anger on the innocent creatures. Large areas of scarlet quickly spread on the sea, and the mutilated corpses of sea beasts floated up.

On the island, the real culprit and the harboring criminals involved were lost in their own thoughts during the long night.

~~

The next morning, Thetis walked out of the palace with a tired look on her face. The bloodshot eyes and depressed mental state clearly proved that the sea goddess had been tormented by troubles all night.

Lorne, who was sitting in front of the embers, did not rush to ask. Instead, he pointed at the freshly heated wheat porridge and asked thoughtfully.

"Would you like some breakfast?"

Thetis opened her mouth and was about to speak when she seemed to hear some high-frequency sound. Her expression changed and she immediately turned and rushed towards the coast.

problem occurs?

Lorne was stunned, put down the soup bowl, and immediately got up and followed him.

As the two walked through the dense forest and arrived at the shallows offshore, several snow-white dolphins covered in scars gathered in the blood-red bay.

And around them, the corpses of their own kind, as well as seahorses, whales, octopuses and other marine creatures, were washed ashore in large areas.

Seeing Thetis' arrival, the remaining sea creatures, as if seeing their mother protecting them, let out painful screams, accusing the cruelty of a certain perpetrator.

But as their vitality passes, their responses gradually weaken.

Seeing this, Thetis quickly summoned clear sea water to moisturize and heal their wounds, and then took these innocent victims back to the sea to settle down.

However, compared to the vast sea area that is almost covered in scarlet, the efforts of this ocean goddess seem to be a drop in the bucket.

What's worse is that the bloody storm that has been tossing the sea all night has no intention of giving up. Instead, it follows the escape route of the marine creatures and rolls straight towards the island where Thetis is located.

A reasonable god? I'm afraid that if I hand the person over, there may not be a good end, right?

Thetis looked at the menacing light of blood on the sea and the large number of marine creatures on the sea that suffered due to anger. She recalled someone's comfort last night and suddenly felt extremely ironic.

I have retreated again and again, but you are still pressing me forward step by step.

In this case, I can only seek justice in my own way.

Seeing that the continuous bloody light was less than a hundred miles away, the goddess of the sea immediately made up her mind and turned to look at Lorne behind her.

"At Polislin Bay, near Cupid Rock!"

Hearing the answer from the other side, Lorne smiled happily and stretched out his hand to Thetis in a formal and friendly manner.

“A pleasure to work with...”
