Greece brings evildoers
Chapter 254: Hades' invitation
"Shh..."
The sharp blade of the double-pronged fork stopped abruptly, stopping an inch in front of the target's forehead, emitting cold light.
So close to death, Lorne's back was almost soaked with cold sweat.
But at the critical moment, the opponent's patience was extremely limited. He could not afford to think too much. He immediately seized the opportunity to turn things around and said solemnly.
"I am the Queen of the Underworld. I was entrusted by her to help Melinoe escape from the control of the goddess Hecate and take the princess out of the underworld. Your Majesty, you may not be able to kill me."
Hades' expression did not change at all when his identity was exposed. He just reached out coldly.
"Evidence..."
"Here!"
Lorne quickly took out the Horn of Plenty in his arms. As the life artifact controlled by Persephone, nothing could prove his close relationship with the Queen of the Underworld better than this thing.
Hades frowned slightly when he sensed the divinity left on it. His voice was low.
"Where's my daughter?"
"She's in a very safe place now. No one should be able to find her except me."
Lorne answered in a deep voice, his tone was meaningful.
Hades heard the implication, his face turned cold, his eyes flickered sinisterly.
"Are you threatening me?"
"Not a threat, just a confession."
Lorne spread his hands, his face full of innocence.
"I'm standing here, the fish on your chopping board, you can kill me at any time if you want."
But then Lorne changed the subject and smiled.
"But if you kill me, things may not end so well. Not only will you lose your daughter, but you will also lose your beloved wife. After all, if Her Highness the Princess has any accident because of you, the Queen of the Underworld may never forgive you in her life."
"..."
After a short silence, the double fork in Hades's hand became empty, and his arm fell.
Phew, I passed the test...
The shadow of death looming over his head disappeared, and Loen breathed a sigh of relief. He was extremely glad that he had kept a hand before setting off and detained Melinoe in the Arima Crypt in case of an emergency.
Otherwise, he might have been torn into pieces by Hades now.
Even if Melinoe was present, it might not be able to stop Hades' intention to kill and silence him.
Because, His Majesty the King of Hell, like him, should not appear in the dream world in front of him at this moment!
Loen sneered secretly while quietly looking at the Lord of the Underworld with a gloomy face.
This old Deng did not stay in his palace and suddenly appeared in the [Dreamland]. I'm afraid it is also related to the "secret" held by Hecate.
What he wants to do, like Loen, is probably to master the secrets of the dream world and no longer be controlled by Hecate.
After all, if there is really a choice, who would want to be a cowardly king? Can't even protect his own daughter and wife?
Damn it, I knew there wouldn't be any honest people in the God King's family!
At this moment, Loen, who was cursing in his heart, finally understood why there was no one guarding the interior of Elysee Garden? Why was the [Real Door] leading to the dream world open? Why were neither the Dream Talking Gods nor the God of Sleep himself in the dream world?
Because he was not the first one to come in, someone had made a move in advance.
Obviously, the Hades also knew that the goddess Hecate was going out for a banquet, so he secretly transferred three thousand Dream Talking Gods and the God of Sleep Hypnos and sneaked in.
Hades himself led the way, it would be strange if the road was not smooth.
After Loen complained about his own carelessness, he saw that Hades's face seemed to have improved, so he asked carefully.
"Your Majesty, I'm asking, didn't you even find 'that thing'?"
Hades glanced at Loen, and a trace of disdain flashed in his dark eyes.
"Do you think what you see is all?"
As he spoke, the Hades summoned a double-pronged fork, stabbed it into the ground, and turned it slightly. The divine runes engraved on both sides of the blade lit up one by one. The purple-black light patterns were in the shape of ripples, spreading and pulsating on the ground. The spiritual veins buried deep in the abyss suddenly became active and boiling. Aether light columns gushed out from the magic arrays formed on the ground, penetrating the world of the dream world.
Buzz!
A rippling dark light pattern spread around with the artifact in Hades' hand as the core.
The ground under the feet of the two melted, reflecting a "chasm" that led directly to the darkness, showing the real underground abyss under this dream world.
Looking down, Lorne couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, his face slightly frozen.
He finally understood the true scale of this dream world.
I saw that there were thousands of wide corridors built of dark volcanic rocks in rows and columns.
On both sides of the stone wall, at regular intervals, a dark cave like an enlarged shrine was dug out, and the exit was blocked by a light screen woven with divine text.
On the inside, figures, some ferocious, some majestic, some gloomy, and some solemn, stood quietly, as if they were frozen sculptures, silent and dim, and some were even half-turned into nothingness, silent in the boundless dark abyss.
Among them were defeated Titans, gods and monsters of various shapes, fallen and disappeared old gods, and ferocious and terrifying monsters...
According to a rough estimate, there are at least tens of thousands of them!
Obviously, almost all the old gods who disappeared after the war between the new and old gods, the war of Typhon, and the replacement of the gods were buried here.
Hades pulled out the double-pronged fork, and the ground gradually returned to its original state, hiding the "secret" again.
The streets and houses that were previously affected by the battle between the two also recovered, and the residents of the dream world continued to enjoy the paradise-like life with joyful smiles.
Everything seemed as if nothing had happened.
Hades made the double-pronged fork in his hand virtual, glanced at the young man in front of him, was silent for a moment, and spoke faintly.
"I will do what I should do, she doesn't need to touch things that she can't control..."
Obviously, this Hades regarded Lorne's infiltration as the intention of the Queen of the Underworld, Persephone.
Lorne nodded slightly and promised solemnly.
"Okay, I will convey your intentions and your love for Her Royal Highness to the Queen of the Underworld."
As he said, he turned back and prepared to take the opportunity to slip away.
Things have developed to this point, far beyond his control. It is meaningless to stay any longer, and it will only increase the risk.
However, just as Lorne took a step, a low and cold voice came from behind again.
"Wait, did I let you go?"
Lorne's face changed, and he subconsciously summoned [Goat].
"Bang!"
But the next moment, a familiar shock came from the back of his neck, and Lorne's eyes went dark, and his consciousness fell into endless chaos.
