Greece brings evildoers

Half an hour later, on the banks of the River Styx.

Sisyphus looked at the river that had been motionless for a long time with an ugly expression on his face.

He had already lost all the gold coins of the dead in his hand, but Charon, the God of Styx Crossing, had not yet appeared on the ferry.

Even, as the water surged, the few coins originally thrown out to buy the road were washed back to the river bank one after another.

Looking at the wet gold coins of the dead man at his feet, Sisyphus couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

What happened? That old boy from Charon refuses to take the order?

Hasn't he always been greedy for money? When did the door-to-door business stop?

At worst, we’ll pay more!

"Forget it, it seems I can't count on him this time."

Lorne shook his head, dismissing Sisyphus's urge to raise the price.

They had stabbed such a big basket, and Charon's body was not heavy enough even if weighed with bones and flesh. In this situation, the guy couldn't even hide in time, so how could he dare to come to help.

The person opposite is greedy for money, but not stupid...

Trouble.

This unexpected turn of events caused a hint of gloom to appear in Lorne's eyes.

After thinking briefly for a moment, he made a new decision.

“Don’t wait for the ferry, let’s walk along the river!”

According to the map given by King Minos, you can also reach the Crypt of Arima along the river.

However, this would require a long detour, and there would inevitably be complications along the way, including encounters with the pursuers of the underworld who were scouring the mountains and seas.

Just as the four were preparing to embark on a new journey, Sisyphus suddenly heard the churning of the river behind him and couldn't help but turn around in excitement.

"Wait, there's movement on the water!"

At this time, circles of ripples spread from the distance, and the dead gray fog lit up with faint spots of light.

One...two...three...

Dozens...hundreds...even thousands!

Lorne's expression changed drastically, and he immediately started shouting.

"It's Mingdie! Let's go!"

"Fuck, that old boy Charon actually sold us out!"

Seeing this situation, Sisyphus reacted instantly.

The two figures with the power of [Superspeed] quickly fought against their teammates, turned around and ran for their lives.

"Come on! Don't let them escape!"

On a warship built from the bones of the dead, four figures with eerie and sharp auras jumped up and quickly surrounded the underworld criminals who were fleeing ahead.

Sisyphus turned back and glanced at him, and his soul suddenly appeared.

Hypnos, the god of sleep, and the three goddesses of vengeance are all here! In addition, there are a large number of Menggua God Clan and Hades Guards!

The old liar who always took pleasure in deceiving the gods couldn't help but curse and quicken his pace after realizing that he had been tricked.

Charon, you old fool, just wait, I'm not done with you!

Running wildly all the way, even though Lorne and Sisyphus both had the power of [Supernatural Speed], they still couldn't get much distance apart due to the disparity in strength.

Even as time went by, the auras behind him got closer and closer, gathering more and more.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lorne glanced at Sisyphus behind him maliciously.

It seems like it's time for the good brothers to show off their remaining energy, right?

However, as if sensing a hint of danger, Sisyphus subconsciously pulled Adonis on his body, held him firmly behind his back, and looked around vigilantly.

Tsk, no, the pretty boy Aphrodite wants is still in his hand.

If they were thrown away together, the trip would have been in vain.

Forget it, think of another way...

In desperation, Lorne could only temporarily put away his bad intentions of betraying his teammates, and watched in all directions, with thoughts racing in his mind, trying to find a new way to break the situation.

"there……"

A breathy whisper came to his ears, and Lorne subconsciously ran away in the direction of Thetis's finger out of trust.

Soon, his eyes were attracted to a garden in the distance full of golden spikes, grape vines, daffodils, pomegranate trees, cypresses and other plants.

The rich greenery exudes the fragrant fragrance of flowers, which all seem to be plants on the ground.

The vitality they are rich in dilutes and eliminates all the death energy of the underworld around them, as if they have opened up a quiet and beautiful paradise on earth in this kingdom of death.

"That is?"

"Persephone's Garden..."

Thetis in her arms came close to Lorne's ear and reminded her in a deep voice, her eyes twinkling.

When Luo En, who was on the run, heard this, he suddenly woke up and felt excited.

It seems that there is help!

"Escape there!"

After Lorne turned around to remind his teammates behind him, he immediately activated his speed to the extreme and jumped into the garden behind the wall at lightning speed.

Seeing this, Sisyphus followed suit and accelerated, throwing away the large group of pursuers behind him, and also plunged into a thick shadow.

"Chase!"

The God of Sleep and the Three Goddess of Vengeance rushed in subconsciously, but as gods of the underworld, they were inevitably contaminated with a lot of death energy, which naturally conflicted with the plants on the ground that represented vitality.

Therefore, as soon as we entered the garden, the surrounding plants died one after another because they could not withstand the invasion of death, and the branches were covered with stamens and dead fruits.

"Who let you in? Get out!"

At this time, a quiet and pleasant voice came from the depths of the garden. The anger and disgust mixed in it made the pursuing gods of the underworld subconsciously stop.

"Sir, a fugitive criminal from the underworld broke into your garden. We just..."

"I don't care who you want to catch, but I only see that you trampled my flowers. Get out now before I want to pursue the matter!"

The quiet voice responded lightly, and then a hint of gloom brewed in it.

"Or do you want to stay here and be fertilizer for the flowers? Do you need me to call 'him' over?"

Hearing the tough command in his ear, and thinking of the "flower farmer" who was repairing the potted plants in the Great Temple, Hypnos and the three goddesses of vengeance swallowed their saliva, and quickly retracted their steps, and led the Hades guards behind them, retreating to the outside of the garden territory like a tide.

Mercyra, the eldest sister of the three goddesses of vengeance, looked at the insurmountable natural chasm in front of her, and had a headache. She turned around and asked her colleagues beside her.

"What should we do now?"

"Guard the outside first, check the surroundings, and I will report to His Majesty the King of Hell immediately and ask him to make a decision."

After Hypnos left his instructions, he vibrated the wings behind him and flew quickly towards the Great Temple of the Underworld.

At the same time, in the quiet courtyard shaded by flowers and plants, an elegant woman wearing a light veil and a black hair crown leaned in the pavilion and looked at the daffodils blooming in the pond leisurely and lazily.

The pomegranate seeds peeled in the palm of the hand were filled with lips and teeth, gently bitten and sucked, and the juice burst out. There was a hint of astringency in the sweet and sour taste.

The emotions in the goddess's emerald eyes were slightly complicated, and she sighed secretly.

In the past, it was because of these two things that she fell into the dark underworld. Now they have become the objects of her thoughts. It is really ironic.

The memory of playing with nymphs in the valley in the woods in the past came to her mind. The goddess was a little bored with the beautiful daffodils in front of her. She looked up at a figure hidden in the shade, and a subtle smile appeared on her face.

"Come out, do you still need me to invite you? I have helped you so much after all."

Thetis smiled bitterly and walked out of the dense forest helplessly, and the disguise spells on her body faded layer by layer.

They... know each other?

Just as Sisyphus and Adonis subconsciously stretched their necks to look at this sudden development, they felt a pain in the back of their necks, and the shock deep into their souls came like a tide.

Fuck, it comes again!

As the familiar feeling surged into his heart, Sisyphus cursed in grief and anger, and his consciousness was swallowed by the boundless darkness, and he and Adonis fell into a complete coma.

Lorne looked at the two people who fell to the ground, and skillfully threw 17 or 18 spells such as suppression, confusion, and binding. After confirming that the two were not pretending to faint, he walked out of the dense forest with confidence and followed Thetis's footsteps.

The gossip fire burning in his body made him unable to help but ask quietly.

"Do you know each other?"

Thetis nodded, and on the way, she briefly explained her relationship with the Queen of the Underworld.

The two sides were old acquaintances. Before Persephone became the Queen of the Underworld, the two gods often feasted and chatted together. In addition, they both liked quiet and leisurely personalities, so they had a good relationship.

Lorne listened and seemed to understand something.

The mythological epic "Iliad" mentioned that in order to break the curse of the goddess of discord, Thetis had entered the underworld many times, holding her son Achilles' ankles and soaking him in the Styx River, making him invulnerable to swords and guns.

Being able to enter and exit the underworld so easily, and using the power of the underworld to forge a divine body for her son, Thetis obviously also had a backer in the underworld.

Now it seems that the Queen of the Underworld, Persephone, is the confidence that she dares to come in.

Even if she makes a mess, she can probably ask her former bestie to help cover it.

No wonder Thetis was always calm and unperturbed along the way.

Realizing that his teammate was also a big shot, Loen decisively entrusted the negotiation with the Hades Queen to Thetis.

Persephone listened to the plea of ​​her friend Thetis and nodded slightly: "Want me to help send you out? Yes, I can..."

Just as Thetis was showing her joy, the Hades Queen in the pavilion changed the subject.

"But how are you going to thank me for helping so much?"

"I..."

Thetis was about to make some light promises, but Persephone raised her hand to interrupt Thetis' words and looked behind her.

"Well, leave him here and you go..."

Hearing this, Loen subconsciously looked at Adonis who was unconscious in the dense forest.

According to legend, after the death of this Cypriot prince, his soul was jointly fought over by the Hades Queen and the God of Love. Finally, under the mediation of Zeus, he stayed in the underworld for six months every year to accompany Persephone, and the remaining six months went to the surface and belonged to Aphrodite.

Damn that pretty boy, he's causing me trouble again!

Just as Luo En was secretly complaining, he suddenly felt a burning gaze coming from the front of him.

He followed the dark gaze of the Queen of Hell, lowered his head stiffly and looked at himself, his brain shut down in shock.

Wait, this doesn't seem right? !
