Greece brings evildoers

Chapter 312 Celebrate, cheer for the birth of the new king! (5.6k)

"Help!"

Seeing the crusaders in danger, the twin brothers stood up subconsciously.

"Wait a minute! They are descendants of gods after all, and they can hold on for a while."

Loen once again held down the twin brothers who wanted to rush out to rescue their teammates, and looked at the battlefield with a cold look, his eyes flickering faintly.

"Besides, don't you think it's a bit strange?"

The twin brothers looked at each other, and then looked at Loen blankly.

"Strange?"

"What do you mean?"

Loen raised his hand to touch his forehead and reminded unhappily.

"We are going into the mountains to crusade against the beast disaster today. The sentry post was lost the night before. Not only were the defenders wiped out, but there were also traces of activities left by the monsters along the way. We just followed this road and came directly to the source of the beast disaster. Isn't it too coincidental?"

The two brothers heard this and subconsciously questioned it based on their previous hunting experience.

"Isn't it normal for monsters to bring captured prey back to their nests?"

"Most of them are just animals, and it is reasonable that they don't know how to hide their whereabouts."

"That's right." Lorne nodded and asked quietly, "But if their actions follow instinct, then why did we only encounter one decent attack on the way here? This is the source of the beast disaster. Why did those monsters with territorial awareness let us in so easily?"

The two brothers frowned and fell into thought.

Indeed, the resistance they encountered along the way seemed too small.

Most of the monsters they encountered before were low-level monsters, and only the chimera was barely a threat.

But you have to know that when they passed by this area a few days ago, they encountered two high-level monsters with the divinity of Typhon, [Divine Pattern Demon Pig] and [Three-headed Dragon Snake], as well as a large number of demon wolves and demon pigs that fled to the mountain road.

Even the twin brothers, who are the sons of Zeus, almost died on the spot because of their carelessness.

Logically speaking, the deeper they go into the mountains, the stronger the monsters they encounter.

But the fact is that since the Chimera led a large wave of monsters to attack and failed, they have hardly encountered any decent opponents on the road ahead.

It seems that those high-level monsters are deliberately avoiding them.

Could it be that...

"These monsters are deliberately luring us!"

"Is this a trap?"

The two brothers looked at each other and looked at Lorne in front of them with astonishment.

"At first it was just my suspicion, but now..." Lorne turned his head and looked behind him.

"There are beasts approaching quickly in the north and east, roughly estimated to be thousands!" Atalanta jumped down from the tree branch with an ugly face.

"There are also beasts in the south and west! More!" Medea pulled up the tin staff from the ground, turned her head and answered, with sweat on her forehead.

The twin brothers' hearts sank when they heard this.

They fell into the trap!

But more doubts followed.

"How could the monsters know our route, and after luring us here, they could accurately carry out a counter-encirclement? Aren't most of them not intelligent?"

"Monsters don't have this kind of wisdom, but what about humans?"

Hearing Loen's meaningful question, the twin brothers looked at each other, their brains were shocked, and a chill came out of their hearts.

"Is there a traitor?"

Loen nodded, looked at the crusaders who were now surrounded, and added in a deep voice.

"That person is not only among us, but I'm afraid he is in a high position."

"Then why didn't you say it in advance?"

The twin brothers asked subconsciously, full of confusion.

Loen rolled his eyes at the two of them and asked back unhappily

"Without solid evidence, I have been talking for a long time, but it only makes you doubt it. Do you think they will believe it?"

"..."

Hearing this, the twin brothers couldn't help scratching their heads awkwardly, speechless, and could only change the subject angrily.

"Who is that person?"

"Whoever behaves most abnormally and is most eager to lead us into this deadly place is the most suspicious."

Lorne answered in a deep voice, with a meaningful look in his eyes.

The twin brothers fell into memories. After piecing together the information, a suspicious figure in their minds gradually became clear.

But their faces gradually became strange. They looked up at someone in the crusade team and murmured in a low voice.

"Hippomenes?"

"No way..."

The conclusion they came to was a little unbelievable to them.

But thinking carefully, this new commander seemed to be full of mystery and disobedience.

On the one hand, this person was unknown, but he became the commander of the crusade team just before departure;

On the other hand, during the march, he seemed to be intentionally or unintentionally inciting the emotions of the team, indulging the team to make mistakes, and luring the team step by step into the encirclement.

Previously, the two brothers had only made reasonable suggestions, and were arranged to be in the front, responsible for the most dangerous exploration. If it weren't for Loen and the other two who took the initiative to join the team, the two brothers would have been seriously injured if not dead.

Thinking about it this way, the commander's attitude was indeed a bit suspicious.

Moreover, the five of them who were responsible for exploring the way just now disappeared, and the rift in front was filled with an obvious ominous atmosphere.

In this case, even the newcomers should be more alert and send out some scouts to investigate and confirm the situation before advancing.

As a result, he directly led everyone into the dangerous zone without even thinking about it.

As for the reason for inciting the crusaders to march, it was because they were worried about the safety of the five of them...

If the commander really cared about them, why did he put them on the most dangerous front line of exploration?

But what good will this do to him?

The twin brothers, who were puzzled, gradually began to have some doubts about their own speculation when they saw Hippomenes leading the conquerors on the field to resist the attack of the beast tide.

Could it be that this is a misunderstanding?

Seeing the two brothers begin to waver, Lorne smiled and spoke.

"Whether the answer is correct or not, you will know if you try it?"

Try it?

Just as the two were wondering, they saw Atalanta on the side, jumping onto the high platform and slowly pulling the bowstring to full length.

~~

Meanwhile, before the rift.

Facing the sudden tide of beasts, the team of conquerors who were caught off guard fell into a hard fight.

"Boom boom boom!"

Rows of spears were thrown, arrows were thrown one after another, spell bombs fell one after another, the roar of the speeding warcraft camp was heard, and dozens of magic wolves and pigs that were hit by the attack were torn apart.

However, facing the monster with thousands of heads, the achievements of the conquerors seemed insignificant.

And what's even more terrible is that these offensives that he is proud of can only deal with low- and middle-level monsters, but have little effect on the subspecies of Typhon's descendants.

Near sunset, the sharp cold wind in the wilderness makes people's cheeks hurt, and the dried blood is like paint smeared wantonly, which is full of impact.

There were mutilated corpses scattered around the team of conquerors.

They piled on top of each other, some from humans and some from Warcraft.

However, most of the dead Warcraft were middle and low-level species. More than a dozen of Typhon's descendant subspecies stood on a high place, blocking the surrounding areas. They seemed to be in no hurry to die personally, and kept urging the Warcraft below to launch rounds of attacks. Charge and consume as much magic and energy as possible on the human side.

"Roar!"

There was no time to mourn for their comrades. The monsters who had just been forced to break up their formation gathered to charge under the low roar of a white chimera.

At the same time, two tawny chimeras surrounding the white chimera also joined the formation, making the battle more difficult.

Under the high-intensity wheel battle, the hundreds of crusaders were already somewhat exhausted.

Whether the spellcasters are from the Temple of the Moon, the Hermetic Sect, the Dionysian Cult, or the Eleusinian Cult, their magic power is almost exhausted, and they really can't hold back much magic.

Meanwhile, throwing spears and bows and arrows have been exhausted.

Without the support from the rear, the divine blood warriors in front could only hold on to their spears and shields, huddled together with their comrades, relying on each other's support, stabbing forward mechanically and numbly.

However, humans are far inferior to creatures like Warcraft in terms of muscles and endurance.

Therefore, after a few rounds of mutual collision and fighting, the defensive formation that the crusaders relied on began to lose shape.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two yellow-brown chimeras, several meters high, took advantage of the situation and rushed towards them, raising their heads and knocking open the two round shields.

"Crack!"

Amidst the crisp sound of broken hands, the two divine-blood warriors at the end of their crossbows vomited blood and were knocked away. Their undefended and seriously injured bodies fell backwards, fell into a group of monsters, and were trampled into pulp.

Dozens of demon wolves on the flanks saw the opportunity, their mouths were salivating, and they roared excitedly.

They immediately ran and gathered, constantly attacking the gaps in the formation opened by the Chimera at both ends.

By consuming the flesh and blood of monsters and the essence of magical medicine, humans can improve their bloodline and advance themselves.

Similarly, in the process of preying on these humans with divine blood, the Warcraft itself can devour the divinity and magic power in them and reach a higher level of life.

Natural selection, survival of the fittest, is what it is.

What's more, according to the oracle, the more humans that successfully prey, the more satisfied the demon ancestors who created them will be.

If you can please the gods through these killings and sacrifices, and then get a glimpse of the Demon Ancestor, you will definitely get a more generous reward!

"Get out of here, you bastard!"

Accompanied by a rough roar, a figure as tall as a giant bear smashed into the pack of demon wolves like a cannonball. The divine power of the dark blue ocean set off huge waves of light that surged and vibrated in all directions, instantly killing the hundreds of demon wolves in front of the gap. Zhen flew out.

Under this powerful force, clouds of blood mist exploded from the bodies of the demon wolves, and the sound of shattering bones in their bodies continued to be heard, causing death and injury in a short time.

The formation of the conquerors, which was about to collapse, became stable again.

He is a saint of Dionysianism!

The heroes cast grateful glances at Polymonus, who came to the rescue.

The burly and honest-looking middle-aged man nodded, raised his hand to take the fairy food and honey wine that had a certain healing effect from his waist, threw it behind him, and pondered solemnly.

"Retreat to the camp if you lose strength. Take the time to recover. Those who can still fight form a formation and follow me! The [Beast Disaster] here is much stronger than what was mentioned in the intelligence. We must rush out immediately before it gets dark. !”

Upon hearing the Dionysian saint's proposal to retreat, the heroes, who were already at the end of their efforts, were quite moved.

"We can't leave! The source of the beast disaster is ahead. As long as we rush over and destroy this nest, we will win!"

Hippomenes immediately and righteously rejected this cowardly proposal, and in order to show his determination, he immediately pulled out his bronze dagger and rushed towards the fissure filled with red and black light.

Seeing the commander so brave, the God Blood heroes had to bite their teeth and follow, trying to go upstream in the beast tide and completely destroy the strange and ominous monster nest.

Is this idiot going to kill everyone? !

Seeing this, Polymonos gritted his teeth and cursed.

But at this point, he had no choice but to be dragged by the heroes to rush to the rift.

As the commander of the team and the first target to emerge, Hippomenes naturally attracted the attention of a large number of monsters and became the priority target of the monsters.

One by one, the God Blood heroes subconsciously gathered towards the commander Hippomenes, trying to protect the team leader, and the formation became more scattered.

And this time, more than a dozen Typhon descendants who had been waiting for an opportunity in the heights finally couldn't hold back, and they stood up and rushed to the human camp, knocking away, pulling out, and tearing the heroes who were at the end of their strength!

"Roar!"

The king of Chimera, covered with white hair, roared and jumped into the loose human camp. The snake head spewed venom, the goat head fired curse bullets, and the lion head burst into flames. The three heads worked together and instantly caused a large number of casualties to the heroes of the God Blood.

Commander Hippomenes, who was guarded in the center, was also exposed in front of the white Chimera.

Seeing this, several heroes of the God Blood hurriedly stepped forward, raised their shields, and tried to resist the attack of the white Chimera.

However, after a series of battles, their physical potential was almost exhausted, and they drank all the magic potions they carried with them.

Now, even if they wanted to fight to the death, it would be difficult to extract much strength from their bodies.

Therefore, they were slapped away by the white Chimera with its claws after just one encounter.

Seeing that Commander Hippomenes was about to die in the mouth of this monster, Polymonos, the only one who could withstand the frontal attack of the high-level monster, gritted his teeth and rushed out of the formation, squeezing the little remaining divine power in his body to the extreme, raising the back of his muscular hand, and greeted the white beast that was running towards him.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by the thunder-like explosion, Polymonos' feet plowed two trenches tens of meters long on the ground, and was pushed all the way to Hippomenes, with a trace of golden red blood flowing from the corners of his mouth

But at the same time, the charging white Chimera was pressed to the ground, and its four claws were swiping randomly.

Obviously, Saint Polymonos was still more skilled in this wrestling.

Blocked!

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but feel fortunate to have such a powerful teammate.

"Swoosh!"

However, before everyone could catch their breath, a dark red meteor streaked across the sky and shot towards the face of Commander Hippomenes at lightning speed.

The incident happened suddenly, and the heroes around wanted to stop it, but they were out of reach and could only watch the endgame happen.

And at this critical moment, a white jade-like hand raised up and firmly caught the cold arrow from the side.

Everyone looked at the owner of the hand, and a trace of astonishment appeared on their faces.

The commander is so strong? Then he just...

As a group of eyes focused on him, Hippomenes' face froze slightly, then his eyes flashed, and he immediately broke the arrow in his hand and spoke angrily.

"There are spies, they are..."

"Swoosh!"

Before the voice fell, the sharp sound of breaking through the air exploded again.

Hippomenes subconsciously set up a defensive formation and prepared to be ready.

However, the dark red light that penetrated the sky not only did not fall on Hippomenes, but fell into the empty mountain crack at the moment, piercing the heart beating in the blood light.

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by the sharp trembling of the air, a fierce wind swept across the wilderness and fell into the mountain crack at a speed faster than thunder, and a hand firmly grasped the bronze javelin wrapped in blood light.

This scene seemed familiar.

The heroes looked at Hippomenes, who was floating in the air in front of the bloody heart of the beast's nest and successfully intercepted the attack again, and their faces changed.

If taking the sharp arrow was just hiding his weakness and self-protection.

But blocking this javelin, the answer is self-evident.

Realizing that he had been completely exposed, Hippomenes dropped the bronze javelin in his hand and shook his head somewhat uninterested.

"Tsk, I thought I could spend the last moments with you happily, what a bummer."

Polymonos struggled to throw the white chimera in front of him away, and angrily glared at the commander who suddenly turned against him.

If it weren't for the sudden arrows and javelins, I'm afraid I would have almost suffered from this guy's murderous hands.

After all, I was the only threat that could shake the situation at the scene.

Thinking of this, the saint of the Dionysus Church was terrified and even more angry.

"Traitor! We trusted you so much, but you actually colluded with the monsters!"

"No, no, I just meet your needs and give you a chance to solve the [Beast Disaster] in an upright manner, but you don't live up to your expectations, who can you blame?"

Hippomenes sneered and shook his head, looking innocent.

"Of course, you may be more useful dead than alive. Your flesh can feed these monsters and slow down the attack of the beast disaster, and your divine blood can be refined into medicine to benefit more people. For example, the King of Arcadia?"

The heroes of the divine blood who were ridiculed by the crowd could not help but blush with anger when they heard the culprit behind this.

"That old bastard from Arcadia actually dared to plot against us!"

"And you, you bastard! Go to hell!"

Along with bursts of angry denunciations, arrows, spears, and cursed bullets were directed at Hippomenes, who was suspended above the crack.

Although the battle between them and the Warcraft group is still in a stalemate, compared to the enemy on the surface, the traitor behind the scenes is more hateful.

However, facing the attacks from his former teammates, Hippomenes sneered disdainfully and raised his hand slightly.

In an instant, bloody light spurted out from the cracks, wiping out and swallowing up all the flying arrows, spears, and spell bombs.

"Guess, why did I bring you to this place?"

Hippomenes looked down at his former teammates playfully and asked a meaningful question.

Before anyone could answer, the person who asked the question raised his hands and chanted to announce the answer.

"When the stars are in the right position, the circle of reason appears here. The origin is very small and expands to infinity. The celestial body is the void. The void is the void. God exists in the void!"

At the same time, the starlight clustered in the sky shot toward the ground at Hippomenes' feet.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the mountains shook and the earth cracked, forming a hollow that seemed to lead straight into the abyss. A ferocious building made of flesh, blood, gravel, and bones rushed out of the crack and rose from the ground. The scarlet heart from before was being placed high. On the dark altar.

This is a temple of the old gods!

Everyone at the scene looked at the scene in front of them, their eyes filled with astonishment and shock.

Hippomenes raised his arms and made a loud declaration.

"Everyone, use your flesh and blood as a sacrifice to welcome the true new god here!"

"Boom!"

The soil cracked, mixed with the roar of advancing waves, and came from the underground. A ferocious dragon beast over a thousand meters tall, composed entirely of bones, ether, and black mud, roared and flew out of the abyss.

As the dragon wings covered with black mud on the bones vibrated, the terrifying ether storm formed a hurricane that swept around, and the overwhelming black torrent that was lifted up surged forward.

But before it got close, the ether storm caused by its wings caused the land mass to lift up layer by layer, and the cracks leading to the abyss continued to expand.

The turbid current from the darkness surged up and overflowed on the surface. The eroded soil layer, like tofu dregs, shattered and collapsed, falling into the abyss.

As the surface of the earth was further eroded and decomposed, the bones, skin, and even flesh and blood scales of the ether dragon beast became clearer.

Obviously, the horror hidden underground is further revealing its majestic figure through the ever-expanding cracks.

Demon Ancestor Temple, the head of Typhon!

Everyone looked at the horrific scene in front of them with despair.
