Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator

Inside the hall, the two goddesses of beauty confronted each other, and the power of the king of gods poured out in all directions.

However, for a moment, even if he called for a halt and used his momentum to intimidate the scene, Zeus still didn't know how to start.

The change just now was too sudden. The handover of the golden apple and Aphrodite's rash action were just a matter of a moment. He needed some time to think clearly about the changes before and after this matter.

It was obviously just a planned conspiracy, how did the golden apple suddenly fall into Keto's hands?

The key is the choice of that mortal... Everything was going well just now, and the situation changed drastically in a blink of an eye. All this was because of the other party's sudden decision. Zeus's eyes swept over Andrea's position, and as expected, the other party had already retreated to the corner.

So did he fall into someone else's calculations? Did Athena see through his thoughts, or was someone else instructing him?

If there was the influence of others, how did he know what he was going to do? After all, apart from himself, only the goddess of discord and the goddess of life knew about this matter. Who among them betrayed him?

And most importantly, why did the person who planned all this do this, and what purpose did he want to achieve?

Countless doubts arose in his heart, and Zeus even suspected Hera for a while. In fact, this was what Ryan originally wanted to do.

You know, although Andrea is a priest of Athena, she still has the power from the Queen of Heaven, which locks her holy power tightly, and where was she robbed at the beginning? That is of course the sea.

In this way, the situation became chaotic, and Zeus could not judge who was the person who instigated all this, because the motive of the whole thing from Hera existed. She and Aphrodite have a long-standing conflict, and now it seems that Keto has the power to conflict with the goddess of beauty, so it is completely reasonable for the Queen of Heaven to secretly contact the ancient sea god after discovering Zeus's plan.

But at this moment, all of this has been overturned, because Ryan's original misleading is that Keto needs to return to hell directly after getting the golden apple. In this way, the whole thing turned into a third party intervening in the whole plan, and even Hera was kept in the dark, and Jiuyu was suspected to be the biggest winner.

At that time, internally, Zeus had to face the Queen of Heaven who pretended to obey and secretly violated his plan. Even if the other party explained, it was still unclear whether the King of Gods would believe it; externally, he had to be wary of the Hell system that suddenly showed traces of great existence. After all, although the devils had planned souls in the world before, Olympus had always regarded them as the first-class existence of evil gods and did not think that was a problem.

For a time, the simultaneous outbreak of internal and external troubles would almost inevitably cause great trouble to Zeus. Although Keto aroused internal conflicts in some of the Gods, this was only limited to suspicion and would not evolve into a war, which would only involve Zeus's energy.

If nothing unexpected happened, as long as Andrea could get away smoothly and the core witness disappeared, Ryan's goal would be achieved. Whatever Zeus was going to do, it would definitely be greatly delayed.

But now everything is going in a different direction.

Keto did not leave, she also confronted Aphrodite openly. Obviously, under the instruction of the Lord of the Nine Hells, she did not intend to control the conflict to a suitable degree, but intended to directly enter the game and completely detonate it.

Asmodeus wanted the gods to conflict with each other, wars to break out in the world, weaken faith, and shake the kingship... He did not want to maintain the stability of the world, he just wanted to muddy the waters, temporarily not expose his power, and then create opportunities to join the drama in the world.

Unfortunately, the accident happened again. Because even Asmodeus, who looked at the world through Keto's eyes, did not expect that among the gods at the scene, someone could actually recognize part of his origin from a look, and the reason why the other party could do this was actually in himself.

"... It's you, this look... No, as expected, it was not a coincidence that you appeared there at that time, Keto, what is your relationship with Purgatory?!"

With a low shout, Hestia suddenly uttered a word that was very unfamiliar to most gods, and Zeus was shocked.

Almost at the same time, he remembered what his elder sister said.

Purgatory... The mysterious existence that Hestia had encountered at the site of human history when the Bronze Age was destroyed.

The souls of the Bronze Age disappeared, and the goddess of the hearth, who was a powerful god at the time, was no match for the other party. And it seems that Keto was also there that time?

"Purgatory, or [Hell]..."

His eyes gradually became cold and fierce. Since that time, the existence of that mysterious man has always been a thorn in Zeus' heart, and it has once again aroused his sense of crisis, and then he decisively broke into the Asgard domain and got a chance to go further.

It was just that in his guess, Hestia probably encountered an ancient god with a powerful peak of divine power at that time, but his origin was unclear, so as his strength became stronger and there was no news of the other party for a long time, Zeus finally put this matter aside.

But now, is there a follow-up to the matter?

"Keto, let's not talk about your relationship with Aphrodite. Shouldn't you explain what you did when the Bronze Man was destroyed?"

In the temple, the situation changed again.

Flames ignited around the goddess of fire, and Zeus also looked at Keto.

It was fine that he had forgotten it before, but now that he had discovered it, he also wanted to know who the person who had fought against Hestia was and where was he hiding?

As the god-king who rules the world, he can accept that there are places that have not been included in his rule, but he cannot accept that there are places in the world that he does not know about.

‘Phew—it seems like there’s some trouble now. ’

Taking a deep breath, Keto did not expect to encounter such a situation.

She was actually recognized. Although she could deny it, the gods might not give any evidence.

Now she has only two options. The first is to directly use the power of Asmodeus to return to hell. Then the mission calculation of the Lord of Nine Hells has failed, but the mission of another monarch has been completed... The other option is to stay. After all, Olympus does not prohibit the gods from having contact with other gods, and when the Bronze Age collapsed, the Divine Court did not prohibit the gods from harvesting the souls of mortals.

But in this case, he could no longer use the golden apple to provoke the relationship between the gods, and the mission was still a failure... So he quickly glanced around the gods present, and Ketuo's eyes became sharp.

If it was just her, she would have to choose one of these two options, but now, she doesn't plan to choose either.

With golden apples, things from the past are not so important. Looking at Artemis wearing a crescent crown in the distance, Ceto took out something from his hand.

"Your Majesty the Divine King, no matter what happened in the Bronze Age, I am afraid I did not violate the rules of the Divine Court at that time. I remember that it was not until after the Typhon Disaster that you assisted the gods in establishing the Divine Kingdom that human souls were prohibited from competing with each other."

"Why, could it be that your queen was very unhappy when I got the golden apple, and now she wants you to come forward to solve this problem for me?"

He pushed back unceremoniously, and Hera stood up suddenly.

She was already angry and dissatisfied with the fact that Ceto got the golden apple. Who knew that the other party would dare to provoke her?

"Cetto, do I still need Zeus to stand up for me? As long as you dare to leave this temple with the golden apple, I will definitely make you pay the price in the future!"

"Really, but I don't believe it."

With a sneer, Keto tossed the object in his hand in the direction of Artemis.

"Dear Lord of the Wilderness, do you believe it?"

"...Of course I don't believe it!"

After a moment of hesitation, Artemis's eyes lit up.

She was here to watch the fun today, so why not make it more lively, and the thing Ketu gave her happened to match her priesthood of [Wilderness].

It’s beneficial and fits your own ideas, so why not do it?

"Artemis, you are so presumptuous!"

Smiling in anger, Hera felt that anyone dared to act recklessly in front of her, but the Crescent Moon Goddess didn't care.

Although she disliked Zeus and Leto, it didn't mean that she liked Hera. On the contrary, the queen is also the object of her boredom.

For a moment, Ketuo's problems seemed to be temporarily covered up by the golden apple, but most gods did not care much about the existence of hell.

There have never been many gods and forces in this world that were not under the control of the Divine Court, so it was not surprising that there was one more.

However, the God King cares, and in this world, only power can determine the loudness of the sound. So the next moment, Zeus' momentum suddenly rose and enveloped the sea area.

"Enough, you are noble gods, this is not your place to quarrel - Ceto, I am not accusing you of your crimes, but as the king of the gods, I hope you can tell me what happened to Hestia that day. Where do the gods come from?”

Staring into Ceto's eyes, feeling the faint sense of familiarity, Zeus spoke word by word.

"What place in the sky and on the earth is unknown to me as the King of Gods?"

······

Beyond Punto Norris, there is an uninhabited sea.

Since leaving the River of the World, Erebus has been waiting here for a while.

While Zeus was still there, he was not in a hurry to go there. The Lord of Darkness just watched the auras coming and going there one after another, secretly calculating whether Zeus's plan was executed smoothly.

Using golden apples to stir up disputes seemed like a very clever way, but Erebus felt that the more ingenious a plan looked, the more likely it was to go wrong.

As expected, at a certain moment, when Zeus's power exploded, something went wrong.

Because in that palace, another aura with weak power but no difference in character also spread.

It is instantly separated from the power of the God King, but the impact it brings is real. And based on Erebus's experience, he immediately discovered the origin of the other party.

Hell, just as the goddess of life once stayed in the divine court for a period of time as a subordinate of the Lord of Darkness, the Lord of the Nine Hells was undoubtedly using this to announce Ketuo's identity.

"Well...Zeus probably doesn't know yet, but he is actually his father Cronus...Oh, this will help me convince Pontos. I would rather sleep than participate in the world. If there is no external force, I There’s really nothing we can do against him.”

After silently calculating, Erebus felt that this surprise was quite appropriate. And since Hell has joined this game, he will find a way to pull the Abyss over.

Tartarus has no consciousness, but the Lord of Darkness actually knows this state very well. Because as a primitive god whose degree of personification is far less than that of Gaia, Erebus will maintain this state of being one with the main body and almost "coexisting with the Tao" for a long time in his life.

This is a manifestation of the degree of personification, and it is also one of the reasons why he wants to open up the interface. But that's all later. If there is enough time, Erebus may be able to use the help of the native creatures of the abyss to stimulate the will of the abyss in some way, so that He can temporarily descend with enough powerful power.

Of course, he doesn't know what will happen to the native creatures of the abyss after doing this. No one knows what the chaotic Tartarus will do.

But Erebus doesn't care about this. The only thing he is worried about is whether there are qualified creatures in the abyss that can complete this task?

"It would be better if there is one... If we can add an Abyss Will, the stimulation to the laws of the world will be further increased."

"Tsk, before I knew it, the number of great beings in my plan for the end of the era is approaching double digits. It is really an unprecedented grand occasion... I don't know if the framework of the world will be broken and the earth will be divided into four parts when that day comes?"

It is still a long time before that day, but Erebus is already looking forward to it.

What happens in the world has nothing to do with him. Anyway, the world will not be destroyed.

Compared with the world itself, these small injuries are nothing.
