Greece brings evildoers
Chapter 279 If the God King does not abandon me, I am willing to be his adoptive father
Zeus outside the prison door looked at the prisoners wearing heavy shackles and chains, and snorted gloomily, his voice like thunder.
"You are so brave to murder the descendant of God and disobey God's will!"
"I……"
Lorne raised his head and wanted to defend himself, but when his eyes touched the gloomy face of the God King, his aura suddenly disappeared. He lowered his head tremblingly and took the initiative to apologize.
"Please, your Majesty, please punish..."
Seeing the reaction of the prisoners in the prison, Zeus was quite satisfied and nodded secretly.
What he wants is not right or wrong, but an attitude.
Whether or not you know how to be submissive and whether you can bow your head determines whether the little bird in the cage has the possibility of being tamed.
Finally, he will confirm whether he wants to keep it for his own use.
Seeing that the little bird in the cage successfully passed the first test, the gloom on Zeus's face softened a bit and he spoke calmly.
"Punishment is punishment, but you are my eldest sister's subordinate after all. She went up to the mountain to intercede for you in person. I have to consider her feelings..."
Has Hestia met Zeus before? No wonder she didn't say any words of comfort when she visited the prison...
A glimmer of clarity flashed through Lorne's mind, and he roughly understood the role his Lord God played in this rebellion.
Rationally, she no longer had any illusions about Zeus, and understood that Zeus's so-called tolerance was probably just an excuse. Therefore, she made two preparations, completely defected to the rebel side, and became an accomplice in the conspiracy of Athena and others;
But emotionally, she is the eldest sister of the big Olympus family after all, and she is unwilling to get involved in this theocratic dispute.
So, Hestia slapped her forehead and simply gave up the position of main god to her external brain, allowing Lorne to decide the Kitchen God's side's position in this rebellion.
If you can't figure things out and can't make up your mind, you will blame the subordinate god. This is really in line with the consistent style of your own main god.
Lorne, who figured out the logic, was a little bit dumbfounded. He didn't know whether to be moved by Hestia's trust or complain about the laziness of the main god.
But considering the situation in front of him, he could only suppress the messy thoughts in his heart for the time being, and react with fear and fear in line with the goodwill signal released by Zeus.
Seeing that the bird in the cage was so good, Zeus waved his hand with greater satisfaction and magnanimity.
"Let's do this. I think you are ignorant and eager to save people. Let's put this matter aside for the time being. As soon as daybreak, you will go down the mountain and return to Hestia. She will keep you under her strict supervision. You are not allowed to go out without my king's oracle. "
Immediately afterwards, the god king changed the topic and added a sentence seemingly casually.
"As for Thetis, I will choose another qualified husband for her."
coming!
Lorne sneered in his heart, immediately made an anxious expression, and objected loudly.
"No! I don't agree!"
"What did you say?"
"Me, I can do it too! I can... I can marry her..."
Lorne stammered in reply, looking eager and eager.
"How presumptuous!" Zeus came back to his senses and was furious, "Spending you is already a great gift, but you dare to take it even further!"
Silver-white thunder arcs exploded all around, leaving traces of charred black on the walls made of bronze.
Lorne tried hard to resist the pressure and fear, held up his pale face and trembling legs, and begged the God King.
"Your Majesty, we are sincere, and please betroth Thetis to me."
Zeus' face was full of gloom, and the thunder and lightning that kept roaring and gathering around him made him look like an angry lion.
"Are you seeking death when you ask this king for conditions?"
"No, it's a plea! I'm no worse than Peleus. What he can do, I can do too."
Lorne spoke hastily, with a look of eagerness on his face.
"I implore you to marry Thetis to me. As long as you agree, I am willing to pay any price!"
"Just because of you?" Zeus snorted with a sullen face, his eyes full of evil, "Do you know that Peleus is my grandson? He has always respected me and never dared to go beyond me. You not only killed him, You actually have the nerve to compare with him? "
Upon hearing the question, Lorne immediately spoke solemnly.
"I will swear to the River Styx that, like him, I will always be loyal to you!"
"Are they just empty words?" Zeus shook his head and sneered, turning around as if he had completely lost interest in the arrogant little guy in front of him.
Seeing that Zeus was about to leave, Lorne suddenly became anxious, like a desperate gambler, holding his chest and answering loudly.
"I am willing to offer my soul as a guarantee!"
Finally, as if being persuaded, Zeus stopped and looked back at the little bird in the cage.
Seeing the reaction of the God King, Lorne shouted loudly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
"If you don't believe it, you can put your divine mark on me!"
Looking at the hand that reached out from behind the iron bars, Zeus seemed to be finally moved by the sincerity and sighed quietly.
"Although Thetis is just a nymph on the sea, my wife Hera raised her and I taught her. We have already treated her as half a daughter..."
I believe you! Use it, use it, and say so affectionately...
Lorne rolled his eyes wildly in his heart, but on the surface he defended Zeus sincerely.
"I understand your painstaking efforts. You just don't want Thetis to trust anyone, so you have to choose someone you can trust."
"As long as you understand!" After hearing such a perfect reason, Zeus felt that the little bird in front of him became more and more pleasing to the eye, almost like a roundworm in his stomach.
At this time, Lorne raised his hand again and begged seriously.
"Then, for the future happiness of Thetis, and to prove my determination to you, please brand me a divine seal and supervise my words and deeds!"
To this, Zeus happily agreed, and a bolt of lightning penetrated Lorne's body, forming a lightning-like mark on his arm, and some kind of connection was established between the two.
Seeing that the other party accepted his divine seal without any resistance and became his own shadow, the scheming God King of Olympus couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.
During this period, in addition to the jealous woman who went out to hide at home, he also investigated the details of the boy in front of him.
Before this boy became a god, he was the secretary of Knossos City and a loyal minister of Minos King Tuogu. He personally participated in the Battle of Crete and had a natural opposition to the gods of the ocean.
In addition, after the death of Peleus, he caused trouble all the way to the east, which can be said to have offended Poseidon to death.
As Hestia's subordinate god, he also has a transcendent stance, making him a very worthy target.
With such a perfect tool man, Zeus was naturally willing to be a favor and betroth Thetis to him.
The only thing that makes His Majesty the God-King hesitate is the issue of loyalty.
But now, this boy not only took the initiative to swear allegiance to him, but also pledged his soul as a guarantee, completely eliminating his worries, which was so satisfying to him.
Since we are one of our own, there is no need to continue to make things difficult.
Zeus waved his hand slightly, and the prison door shattered under the lightning, but the shackles on Lorne's body did not move at all.
The God King, who lowered his eyes and looked outside the cell door in confusion, couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Orichalcum, silver star sand, adamantine... Is Hephaestus crazy? Use so much rare metal to create a pair of shackles?
"It's what I asked for..." Lorne looked stunned, lowered his head and explained in a low voice, "Although it was not intentional, it still offended your majesty. Without your forgiveness, I dare not let myself get away with it easily, so I I beg the craftsman to tailor-make a pair of shackles for me to ensure that I cannot break free."
After hearing this, Zeus looked at Lorne with a complicated expression.
Isn't this child a bit too much?
But now that it was over, Zeus could only shake his head helplessly.
"Forget it, it's up to you. When you get out of Olympus, you can go to Hephaestus and tell him that the king has officially pardoned you and agreed to your marriage to Thetis. Let him think A way to break the shackles for you."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"
Lorne got his wish and immediately thanked him with excitement.
Zeus nodded slightly, and then spoke casually as Lorne stepped out of the cell door.
"By the way, you seem to have a good relationship with Athena. What has she been doing recently?"
Lorne's heart trembled, and he suddenly understood Zeus's other purpose of conquering him.
To put it bluntly, His Majesty the God King is also worried about his good daughter on the Ares Mountain whose fighting prowess is off the charts.
But unlike Poseidon, who was both good and fun-loving, Athena did everything without revealing anything, and she didn't leave anything behind.
Therefore, Zeus wanted to take the opportunity to bury a nail in Ares Mountain to serve as his eyes and ears to monitor Athena's movements.
However, Lorne, the mole, is a double agent who is both loyal and treacherous.
"There are many goddesses on the mountain. Lady Athena often gathers with them to discuss topics such as culture, poetry, philosophy, etc. She seems to be planning to implement some changes in Athens. I don't know exactly what they are."
"She always likes to come up with new tricks."
Zeus snorted, completely relieved.
There are many goddesses gathered in Ares Mountain. He knows this, and he also knows that the daughter is not restless.
But they are just goddesses and cannot affect his royal power at all, so it doesn't matter if they are left to fiddle around in Athens.
With the doubts in his mind dispelled, Zeus waved his hand with satisfaction.
"Okay, you can go back first. If you have anything in the future, you can report it directly to me."
Lorne nodded upon hearing this, then showed hesitation.
"There is something I don't know if I should tell you."
"But it doesn't matter."
Zeus smiled and waved his hands, looking very generous.
After getting the answer, Lorne felt relieved and spoke solemnly.
"I suspect Poseidon wants to do something bad to you!"
Upon hearing this, Zeus, who was still a little wary at first, suddenly laughed and waved his hand lightly.
"Yeah, I know, I'll pay attention to it later."
Seeing Zeus's calm reaction, Lorne became anxious.
"It's true! He seems to have accomplices! You must be careful!"
"Oh? Who is it? Tell me..."
Zeus asked with a slight smile, still a little unconcerned on his face.
It’s not that he deliberately discourages his subordinates.
On the one hand, Poseidon doesn't jump a few times a year, not to mention that he has already done it in advance, so there is no need to make a fuss.
on the other hand. He had not forgotten that this boy had a grudge against Poseidon, so he was inevitably suspected of exaggerating the facts and throwing dirty water on his brother.
As expected, Lorne shook his head in embarrassment.
"The situation was too chaotic. The man was wrapped in black mist. I didn't see his specific appearance."
Just when Zeus thought this was another false accusation, he saw the subordinate across from him pulled off his coat and spoke solemnly.
"But she left this thing on me!"
As a dark brand with a circular shape and a maze-like interior came into view, Zeus, who had originally taken it lightly, suddenly changed his expression.
