Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator

#578 - The Discipline of the Scales

Suffered a sudden attack, and it is most likely unrelated to what happened in the starry sky.

After all, judging by Ares's reaction to Hercules' strength, he probably had no idea who he was meeting.

For a moment, if the hero had not taken action yet, he would have even thought that he had rescued the Centaur Chiron, which is why he was chased by Ares now.

But the reality is that he hasn't even entered the city gate...but that doesn't matter anymore.

Hercules rushed forward facing the bronze dagger wrapped in the bronze airflow.

Pulling Pegasus backwards, the hero wrapped his fist with the invulnerable lion skin and grabbed the long sword that was coming towards him.

Veins popped out on his three arms instantly. In this land near Olympus, the God of War and he were engaging in the most primitive contest using the bronze sword forged by Hephaestus as the medium.

There is no fancy energy surge, but the power of the flesh is undoubtedly demonstrated here.

But what made Ares open his eyes wide and look ferocious was that the bronze dagger that he was holding with both hands and pressing down with all his strength only stayed in the air for a moment, and then was lifted up by a big hand at a speed visible to the naked eye, and moved in the opposite direction unswervingly.

A moment of astonishment surged into his heart, and shame and anger filled Ares' chest the next moment.

Violent murderous intent and anger burned in his heart, even turning into an invisible flame that enveloped him.

An endless supply of power was born out of thin air. With the harmony of priesthood and spirit, the power of the God of War, which had already reached its limit, rose again.

If this was on Mount Olympus, the destructive power of his divine power would probably have briefly risen by one level out of thin air.

Ares howled to the sky and looked at the enemy in front of him with bloodshot eyes.

“Ah—enough, enough!!”

"Mortal! Do you really think you can defeat me?!!!"

"Impossible! You can never beat me!"

"I am the undefeated god of war, Ares!!!"

boom--!

The clouds in the sky dispersed and the earth roared.

It was clearly just a confrontation of physical strength, but at this moment it demonstrated the power to shake mountains and rivers.

At this moment, without the blessing of the laws of the gods, and without the help of divine weapons that could be fully exerted by mortals, even the invulnerable fur of the giant lion could only block the sharp edge of the bronze dagger.

Facing such an opponent, Ares could no longer find any reason to comfort himself for his failure. In such a desperate situation, his divine duty was finally doubly stimulated.

The more he fought, the stronger his power became... Was this the upper limit of the God of War? Ares didn't know.

He only knew that his physical strength had more than doubled at this moment. Even if Zeus was standing here, he would dare to step forward and wrestle with the other party.

The raging rage fueled the blood flow, and the cracked ground around him proved how powerful he was at the moment.

With great confidence, at this moment, Ares pressed down with both hands with all his strength.

Achilles or anyone else.

No matter who it is, no one can resist his power at this moment!

“Die!”

tread--!

Take a step forward and the ground collapses.

At Ares's stern shout, the dagger that was already at its limit finally stopped moving upwards and pressed towards the hero again.

With a look of ecstasy on his face, in the eyes of the God of War, Hercules' figure seemed to overlap with his past enemies.

Athena, Achilles...yes, that's it!

Your previous victories never proved anything. As long as God can give me a chance for a fair duel, how can you be my opponent?

"sharp."

Looking directly into Ares' eyes, at that fierce look and taut blood vessels on his face, Hercules was truly amazed at this moment.

"Even the other Lord God I met was not even one-tenth as good as you in this aspect."

I don't mean to exaggerate. Even if all the divine power and authority are taken into account, Ares in normal state is at most twice the level of Zephyros. Even if he is full of fighting spirit, the gap between the two sides will not be as much as ten times.

But Hercules' judgment was correct, because divine power and physical body are not absolutely equal.

Among all the gods, the ancient first-generation Titan gods generally have extraordinary bodies, while the new gods are relatively weak, and there are many gods whose bodies are not as strong as those of the powerful demigods.

Only gods like Ares, whose divine duties are compatible with those of the Titans, can rival the Titans in terms of the strength of their divine bodies. Even compared to them, the God of West Wind and the mortal demigods are not even on the same level as him in this regard.

Therefore, all along the way, Hercules saw either strange 'mechanisms' or strange 'sizes'. No one could achieve this with just the body.

Even when he first debuted, he still strangled the great demon with an equally extraordinary body. It was not until today that this famous god of war finally made him feel a little bit of fighting spirit.

Wrestling with the gods? The left hand holding the reins finally moved. The hero shook his wrist and knocked the four celestial horses to the ground.

Facing Ares' gaze that changed from ecstasy to confusion, and then to astonishment and disbelief, Hercules grasped the middle of the dagger with his left hand and lowered his waist to sit on his hips.

Although he had no respect for the other party's character, as an opponent, the great hero recognized the strength of the God of War.

"Come on - there's no need to hold back."

"Now I am also using my full strength... Your Highness Ares, please let me see your true power as the God of War!"

His eyes were bright, it was a rare opportunity to meet such an opponent, he exerted force with his legs, the force was transmitted from the ground to his waist and abdomen, and finally exploded in his forearms and wrists.

Apart from the giant god who holds up the sky and uses "strength" as his authority, and the giant with a hundred arms who has infinite strength just by stepping on the ground, there is no other power in the world that is as strong and pure as this.

Even at this moment, Hercules felt as if he had touched something again, but it was still like looking at the moon in the water or flowers in the fog.

By the time he reacted, everything had passed in a flash, as if it had never happened.

Only as the one facing this supreme power, Ares' eyes were bloodshot and he felt powerless and horrified.

What a joke! He just realized that what he had been dealing with before was just this human's hand?

But the great hero thought that he didn't use his full strength because he didn't want to take advantage of him... Now he is going to experience his 'real strength'?

The fighting spirit that had just been ignited began to tremble immediately. Looking at Hercules in front of him, the God of War wanted to say something, but the great hero had no intention of listening at all.

The saying "one force can defeat ten skills" was demonstrated to the fullest at this moment.

Although Ares tried to mobilize the holy power in his body to resist in desperation, Olympia, although close to the sacred mountain, still belonged to the human world.

With a loud bang, a crack dozens of miles long appeared in the ground.

The bronze light flew backwards and fell towards Olympia.

What was a little surprising was that when the light was about to approach the city, it suddenly stopped and then changed direction.

Not only did it not slow down, but it accelerated and continued to fly into the sky.

And the direction he was flying in was vaguely the direction where Mount Olympus stood.

"Um?"

“What…is going on?”

The blood was boiling, and the hero felt refreshed after a long-awaited full-strength attack.

He just let out a long sigh, looking at the little divine blood on the ground and the fading divine light, and Hercules was a little confused for a moment.

Shenxue could understand that in the wrestling just now, the bronze dagger finally couldn't withstand their strength and broke into several pieces.

One of the sections just happened to poke Ares' body, leaving a wound where he tied his belt, but he didn't know why the divine light turned away. (Note 1)

"What else could it be?"

"The duties of the God of War are closely related to confidence and fighting spirit. A God of War who loses confidence and fighting spirit is like a Poseidon who loses the ocean. He will be affected in all aspects."

"Your attack just now probably broke his mentality, so that he ran away without even turning his head... Haha, in fact, one or two wins and losses are not enough to cause this. Ares probably reacted like this because he had lost a lot in the first place, and you were just an inducement."

"But he still had some sense and knew not to embarrass himself in front of mortals. So even in an emergency, he remembered to stay away from the city of Olympia."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Chuckling softly, the puppet climbed out of the big hero's pocket.

To be honest, he was shocked by the power that Hercules had just unleashed.

Without considering those special influences, in terms of pure physical strength, the great hero may really be the best in the world.

"That's good. Now, you should be able to take the Centaur Chiron away in a 'low-key' manner."

"After all, Ares will never publicize this matter in a big way, and because of your fight, this city has become a mess."

“…Alright.”

The hero nodded slightly, indicating his approval. But thinking about what happened just now, he still felt a little upset.

"...As you said, I was wrong just now. This level of power is already the full strength of the God of War...but he hasn't said why he came to trouble me."

"Huh...I really can't understand it."

Shaking his head slightly, Hercules stopped thinking about it.

Next, he just had to find the person.

······

Bang!

brush--

Tap--

The journey was smooth, and without Ares, Olympia was like a no-man's land in front of the great hero.

If it were in the past, the God King might have left a thought on his huge statue. Even if he would not do anything, he might have chosen to stop the Centaur from leaving.

But the God King had been staying at home recently, so this last bit of trouble was eliminated invisibly.

Going deeper into the city, Hercules found Chiron imprisoned in an underground palace.

But unlike what he imagined, the Centaur didn't seem to be hurt here. Instead, he looked relaxed and at ease.

Without asking any more questions in the palace, after explaining his purpose and the commission from Silvermoon City, Chiron immediately agreed to leave with the great hero.

The chaotic city didn't even notice their whereabouts, and in less than half a day, the two men left Olympia.

"...Olympia is a city that is loyal to its faith. In fact, its level of fanaticism far exceeds that of Silvermoon City."

"After all, not everyone in Silver Moon City is a devout believer, but here, only the devout believers are qualified to survive."

Expressing gratitude to Hercules for rescuing him, the tall Centaur explained to him why he was not hurt.

Until Ares arrived, the people of this city finally did not dare to do anything to him, and the arriving God of War did not have time to do anything.

There was a slight feeling about this, but Chiron was also a little worried.

Although he seemed safe now, he himself did not think so, because a long time ago, he had predicted his future.

In the river of fate, he vaguely saw a sharp arrow carrying poison hitting a blurry horse body.

He could sense the breath of death from that arrow. There was no doubt that if he was the one hit by it, he would be dead.

And if he was not the one who was shot...how could he see this scene?

"In any case, I thank you for your help, brave hero."

He had prepared for death long before coming here, so although he was still worried, the Centaur did not care too much.

He simply looked at the great hero in front of him and decided to do his part in his journey.

Silvermoon City gave him the Star Shuttle as a reward, but that didn't mean Chiron didn't have to do anything.

From Hercules, he learned that the other party was going to the ruins of Mount Odilus.

He still has some knowledge about this place.

"…The ancient sacred mountain was broken off in the last era, so that now only ruins remain there."

"Everything that belonged to the Titans was buried there... In addition to the remains of the gods, there is also a terrifying demon."

"I know. The Sphinx."

Nodding, the great hero already had a good understanding of this.

However, the Centaur's next words surprised him.

"…So…you're saying it didn't stay there voluntarily, but was suppressed there by a divine artifact?"

"You can't say that, it's voluntary."

"Or rather, it is an agreement reached with the owner of the artifact."

"They made a bet, and the stakes were the Sphinx's freedom and the artifact that was compatible with its power."

"I think you should know this..." The Centaur said solemnly, "That is the Golden Balance, the manifestation of fair order in the world."

"And it is precisely because of its existence that the Sphinx has never set foot in the human kingdom."

Note 1

In the Trojan War, Ares was stabbed in the same place by a mortal hero, and then ran to Zeus to complain - so where is the place to tie the belt, the waist or below the waist? I don't know, I spread my hands.jpg
