Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator

When the conflict in the palace on the ocean fermented, underground, in the underworld.

The lilac moonlight shone on the gray soil, and nothing in the world could affect here.

Almost at the moment when Hera held the thunder and hit the sheepskin shield, a silver snake flashed at the gate of the underworld.

Eternal night and darkness shrouded both sides, and the surging river of pain stirred the waves.

Due to the special spatial rules of the underworld, no matter where you come from on the earth, you will only fall into the same entrance. So Hades built a portal for this purpose to separate the human world and the underworld.

At this moment, there was no living creature in front of this tall door, only a human man wearing black armor and pale skin standing with a sword. On his side, there was a soul that rose and fell with the flow of the Styx.

Of course, to say that he was a human, he only looked like one.

It was just that Zeus could be sure that he was not a god, but whether he was a human was actually a very questionable thing.

"Equis..."

Flashing out of the lightning, after many years, the God King once again set foot in this place that the gods regarded as wild.

For some reason, Zeus felt that something had changed here, but after sensing it, there was no result.

He shook his head slightly and put this illusion behind him. This may be the impact of dealing with the invasion of the outer gods...The real reason that made Zeus stop was not this illusion, but the collision between the thunder and the sheepskin shield far away on the sea.

Falling from the sky for nine days and nine nights can reach the earth; falling from the earth for nine days and nine nights can reach the underworld. But this long distance does not seem far away for Zeus now. Standing here, he can also feel his artifact.

Hera used it, and then it was easily blocked by the shield of Equis.

Although it was the thunder he left deliberately, and he knew that it could not do anything to Athena, but when this artifact that he once regarded as a treasure was so powerless, Zeus still felt a little uncomfortable.

That's how he got his vague fear of Athena. It wasn't formed overnight, but was caused by the other party's silent display of power over and over again for thousands of years.

Fortunately, she is a goddess... Without thinking too much, Zeus felt that he should adjust his mentality.

Looking at Erebus, he never looked ahead and behind like this. Although this is also related to the fact that the power of the original god is not like the position of the king of gods, Zeus still feels that he needs to learn.

"Stop, who is coming!"

The distracting thoughts flashed in his mind, but it was only a moment in the outside world.

When Zeus' figure appeared in front of the gate of the underworld, a roar resounded across the two banks of the Styx.

The man holding the heavy sword raised his head, and his eyes under the mask were piercing. A deep and cold breath was released from him, filling this gray field.

As the object of interrogation, Zeus was surprised to find that this existence that was not like a living thing actually had god-like power, and was not even a weakling among the true gods.

[Zagreus, the gatekeeper that Hades found from nowhere]

[He has an immortal body that is stronger than an ordinary god's body, but he is not a descendant of a god... I thought it was a rumor before]

Zeus recalled the existence of the other party with a slight movement of his mouth.

Zeferos mentioned this to him, but to be honest, as the King of the Underworld, Hades is really suitable, after all, he always likes to deal with dead things... With a faint smile, Zeus did not hide his identity.

"I am the God King of Olympus, and the king of the sky, the sea and the earth. Get out of the way, I want to enter the underworld, this is my due right."

"..."

Silently, the man named Zagreus looked at Zeus without respect, and then silently made way.

The armor plates on the armor collided with each other, making a crisp sound of metal collision.

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Zagreus's attitude, considering that he was Hades's minister, he still didn't say anything.

It's almost time. Isn't the reason why he agreed to Erebus to start the dispute over the golden apple to change this situation?

It won't be long before this will all change... Without paying any more attention to this ignorant guy, Zeus easily crossed the River of Pain and roughly identified the direction after crossing the place where Zagros was guarding.

Before, he had been chasing that breath all the way, passing through the sea and the strata. But when he came to the underworld, he suddenly lost his trace.

As if it had merged into the underworld itself, the breath disappeared without a sign, but Zeus soon understood why.

The birth of the underworld was originally from the interweaving of the four original god realms, so in theory, the power of the four original gods can do this.

However, Erebus had just reached an agreement with himself that Nyx was suspected, but not big. If the search was fruitless, he could try to confirm it and try to visit this most low-key ancient god of creation.

For the rest, Gaia is also possible. After all, she is still the god of the earth... So if nothing unexpected happens, this should be related to Tartarus.

Well, it is a very logical inference. Moreover, if a god that has never been seen does not exist in the world, it is indeed very likely to come from the chaotic abyss.

The result is that there is, but Zeus can't help but feel more difficult.

Tartarus, a place outside the world. There his power as a god is destined to be greatly oppressed and weakened.

"Abyss..."

He whispered the name, hesitated for a moment, and although he instinctively rejected it, Zeus set off again.

Although he did not choose to track down the mastermind behind Keto under the provocation of Poseidon's words, but took the initiative to leave for his own purpose, to "untie" the gods and avoid trouble, but this does not mean that Zeus does not want to know who that existence is.

That familiar feeling, he must have seen the other party before, although he can't remember where he saw it now, but he still wants to take a look.

So his figure flashed, and as the surrounding environment gradually distorted, a winding portal that existed and did not exist appeared in front of Zeus.

Tartarus, the place he entered when he was not yet the king of gods. At that time, he was still working hard to overthrow his father.

Standing at His door again today, Zeus felt very clearly that things had changed.

"...Come on, let me see who you are."

Taking a deep breath, Zeus stepped in.

Soon, with a change in time and space, Zeus's figure disappeared under the sky of the underworld.

······

"Hmm?"

In the depths of hell, on a high mountain, in the endless palace complex, Asmodeus had just taken back his power.

This power residing in Keto is not without substitute function, but it is really useless when facing the same level of existence. So he just declared his presence and hurried back to the abyss.

It's just different from what Zeus thought. As he once said, when the demon in Tartarus was born, the time and space of the Nine Hells floated in the abyss.

So he didn't actually go through the gate of the abyss, but returned here directly as soon as he entered the underworld.

"Are you still chasing me... Leaving at this time, it's just as I guessed, you actually want to create conflicts yourself?"

"This timing, this somewhat hasty preparation, the abnormal fluctuation of the world power, and the goddess of life... So you have reached a cooperation with the darkness, and want to take this opportunity to completely unify the world?"

Raising his hand slightly, a wisp of dark power fell into Asmodeus's open palm.

This is the power that Erebus once mixed with the souls of the Silver Generation. Later, it became the spoils of the Nine Hells, and also made the devil clan have the power to control the shadows.

Looking at this power, and thinking about Gaia who once cooperated with the Lord of Darkness, and Zeus's character...

"What else can I say except that we have our own ulterior motives?"

Clenching his hands, Asmodeus extinguished this ray of power and turned around to look at where he was.

Unlike the floating island in the atrium of the fifth layer of hell, the ninth layer of purgatory is a place that is very similar to the outside world.

The establishment of hell comes from order in chaos, and the ninth layer of hell is naturally the most orderly part.

Even from the perspective of mortals, they may not be able to tell the difference between here and the outside world. They will only think that they are still in the human world, not in the lower world full of blood and fire.

The ninth layer of hell, [Chronoa], if the Titan gods of the past came here, they would probably suddenly find that this towering mountain is so similar to the uncollapsed Mount Odile, and the buildings on the top of the mountain are no different from the past.

"Do you miss the past so much, or is this the reason why you choose to provoke conflicts in the world?"

The voice came from the depths of distant time and space, and Asmodeus was not surprised by the belated inquiry of the ancient snake.

When he learned that Keto had received and changed the order, he knew that the other party would come to ask him.

And the answer he gave was also thought of at that moment.

"Of course I miss it, but I don't miss the place. In fact, I just miss myself who was full of fighting spirit, with my wife standing by my side and loyal guards protecting me."

"That's why I want to go back, and why I want to defeat the God Court and take revenge on Zeus and fate. But what about you? Why do you want to stop this conflict? In fact, you have no reason to stop it. Zeus can't be your opponent now. Even if he has a stronger power, the authority of the God King comes from the world, and he must be bound by the world. So in this case, why do you want to stop him from provoking conflicts within his own God Court, or even directly giving orders to Keto?"

With a calm expression, although he didn't know the existence of the world of Hermeneu, Asmodeus still made the most accurate judgment.

"You are tripped and you encounter unexpected things."

"Because of the former, you can no longer sit on the high platform and watch the changes in the world, because as the most critical point, your power is limited: because of the latter, you have to give orders to Keto, because there is not enough time to think and arrange, you can't find a more suitable object, so you can only let her complete your task."

"So you see the opportunity?"

The voice is leisurely, and the ancient snake does not look angry.

Asmodeus is not His subordinate, this is something he has known for a long time. So the other party's choice is just unexpected and reasonable.

"Yes, this is the best time."

"The war between Hell and the Abyss is destined to continue for endless years, because the world is growing. As the core of the chaotic side, Tartarus's power is being consumed by me, but it is also growing."

"Only the human world, only there is the node of breaking the situation. Zeus wants to provoke conflicts and even threaten your arrangements-you may not be able to use your full strength, but don't you still have me?"

"Instead of having to pay a price to get you and me to target Zeus together one day in the future, isn't this better? You see, no matter what, at least now, our interests in the world are the same."

Stretching out his hand, Asmodeus pulled out a sickle from the void.

It looks very similar to the previous style, but more refined and gorgeous.

After all, compared to the natural artifact made of flint, this sickle may not have a special effect against the God King, but its power in other aspects is actually even better.

So he took a step and came to the gate of Tartarus outside of Hell.

Zeus had just arrived here at this moment, looking at the abyss that had changed greatly in surprise.

"Nothing is more stable than a consistent position. Only in this way can both sides work hard towards the same goal."

"As for you, Zeus, stop here."

"Your father is your father after all."

He smiled softly and then swung the sickle.

And under the knife light, it was the third generation of God King who was stunned to parry.
