Mythology: Spiritual Ruler

Wow——

In the city of Auroa, he watched helplessly as the ‘residents’ he had killed before appeared in the streets again, hammering and repairing the damaged houses.

The old man who was killed first even had time to apologize to the young hero, saying that he did not intend to deceive.

Obviously, for all the lives in this city, the physical body is just a carrier, and it is meaningless even if they die thousands of times.

If they cannot erase their ‘spirits’ controlled by Ander’s ‘threads’, then they are alternative immortals.

Looking at this scene, Hercules felt that his knowledge was indeed far from enough, and he could not do anything to even an evil god who did not have much reputation.

The seemingly powerful force was like a reflection on the water surface, which could not hurt the moon in the sky at all.

Although Hercules did not know, it was not his fault, but because the change of the authority of [life] in the world once led to the spirituality being higher than the material in this field, so that the powerful spirit could interfere with the material, but the powerful material could hardly interfere with the spirit in turn.

But he could only guess that Ander was definitely not the only one in the world who had similar means, and he would have to face these beings sooner or later.

Especially his goal, the spirit world.

According to legend, it was the source of spirituality in the world, and there lived life that was completely different from the material world.

So when Hercules left Auroa City, he couldn't help but raise his doubts to Ander.

"Sir Ander, since we are fellow travelers from now on, I have a question for you."

Walking aimlessly in the woods, Hercules talked while adapting to the lion fur coat that belonged to him completely.

"You want to ask me, if you meet an enemy like me again, how should you deal with it, right?"

Click click...

Hercules' shoulders moved, and the next moment, a doll suddenly emerged from it.

It was almost the same as a living person, but there was a slight difference, giving people an inexplicable sense of weirdness.

However, under the influence of the contract, Hercules was not afraid at all.

"Yes."

Nodding, the young hero did not deny it.

"Since we have signed a contract now, we are companions to each other."

"You said you are not good at fighting, so if I encounter a similar situation in the future, how should I deal with it?"

"Well, this... Actually, for God, this is not a big problem."

As if thinking for a while, the villain said slowly: "Simple power is useless. If you want to deal with an existence like me, if you can't master similar methods to me, then you need something that contains the power of authority."

"And the true God, everyone is born with authority."

"So you mean-artifacts?"

Hercules understood what the other party said immediately.

The gods are born with it, but everything can also be used with the power of artifacts.

But for his answer, Ander nodded first, and then shook his head.

"Artifacts are indeed useful, but they also come in different types."

"Ordinary artifacts may allow you to kill the souls residing in my puppets, but if your target is me, then it may not be of much use."

"After all, the human world cannot contain divine power, and my true body is not here at all. What you see now is just my sustenance before I truly become a god, and it is also a creation that once carried the godhood of [Drama]."

"It can therefore withstand my power, just like the incarnation of the gods carries them, but its destruction will not really hurt me. Only some special powers, such as [Death], can allow you to follow the spiritual thread I dropped all the way to hurt my true body, or follow The incarnation of the gods severely injured their original bodies. "

"In addition, there are powers like [Judgment] or [Power], and the latter is the most suitable divine power for you. It can not only enhance your strength, but also allow you to hurt things that you could not hurt before. "

"Of course, as we all know, the divine power of [Power] belongs to the Titan god, Atlas, the sky-supporter. "

"So although it suits you, I'm afraid it's still out of your reach. "

"Is that so. "

"I see. "

"[Power]... [Death]..."

"Power, this is the most precious wealth of the gods. "

Thinking, the young hero silently memorized these things at this moment.

Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles.

And now he has thousands of books with him and is traveling thousands of miles.

Although he still has many shortcomings now, Hercules believes that there will always be a day when he will make up for his shortcomings.

After all, this is his first trial...Well, of course, including the one arranged by Ander, there are two, one from Olympus and one from the evil god outside the world.

I don't know if his subsequent 'trials' will turn out like this.

In addition to the one God gave him, he will create another one himself.

"Huh?"

Hercules was about to ask something else when he suddenly heard a slight "huh".

The little man on his shoulder seemed to have noticed something, and then he moved with a click and got into one of his pockets.

I have to say, I don't know if the material of this little man is special, or if Ander is really strong.

When it got into the pocket, even Hercules, who saw it with his own eyes, instantly felt that it had lost the breath of a living thing and became indistinguishable from a dead thing.

"Okay, I won't talk to you for now. Someone is coming."

"Oh, I almost forgot that you are the treasure in his eyes... Remember to make up a reason, you should know this."

The second half of the sentence sounded directly in his mind. Before he could reply, the next moment, Hercules felt a strong wind blowing from afar.

This wind contained a familiar power, which belonged to the breath of God. Soon, the figure of the God of West Wind appeared in front of Hercules.

"Huh-Hercules, I finally found it... cough cough."

The wings vibrated, rolling up gusts of air.

Until he saw the familiar figure, Zephyrus was really relieved.

Swallowing the words that almost blurted out, the God of West Wind looked at the missing person in front of him.

Compared with before, the momentum looked a little stronger.

And on his body, a simply tanned lion skin was draped over his shoulders.

Just one glance, Zephyrus recognized its former identity.

The giant lion of Nomissa, the demon that the incarnation of the gods could not do anything to, has now become the ghost of Hercules.

Seeing this scene, although he did not see it with his own eyes, the God of the West Wind still roughly imagined the truth of the matter.

This nameless forest is probably the place where the laws are distorted by the great divine power of the old times, and that is why he was trapped here and could not leave.

After all, compared with the true gods, the power of the ancient gods of creation has a strong enough legacy. It is easy to permanently change the rules of a place, which is one of the reasons why the world rejects and suppresses them.

As for why the world itself is obviously more powerful than them, why can't it repair these defects... This is not a secret, but a common sense among the gods.

Just like at the beginning of the Second Era, the world needs to wait for the goddess of justice to complete the great cause of "legislation" before it can gradually squeeze out the remnants of chaos under the order of the world.

If the world itself is so intelligent, it would not be called "worldly will" long ago, but would directly walk in the world in the form of personality.

Let's get back to the point. No matter how this place was formed, in terms of the result, this abnormal law phenomenon is likely to be used by the evil god behind the demons here, making it a shield to block the gods.

But what the other party never expected was that this time it was such a powerful demigod who came.

Even if it is an abnormality of the law, the reaction when facing the target is different.

So compared to himself, Hercules was not affected at all. He found the target directly and then killed the demons here.

With the death of the demon, the changes in the forest naturally dissipated. So that I couldn't find it after searching for so long before, but now I can easily find his figure.

Well... it should be like this.

Although I am still curious about the specific process, as a god, Zephyrus doesn't want to show his ignorance, especially in front of Hercules.

Even if they have not been together for a long time, he knows the potential of this young man. Hercules is willing to obey orders on his own initiative, so he can order him.

But if one day he is unwilling, then the god of the west wind may not be able to do anything to him... So in front of the young hero, Zephyros just coughed twice, and then showed that everything was under control.

"Hercules, it seems that you have completed the task I assigned to you very well."

"The evil demon has died in your hands, and the people in the north will no longer be poisoned by it. You did a good job."

"... This is what I should do."

After a moment of silence, the young hero shook his head and said.

"Well, no matter what, you have done your part for the people in the north, and from today on, your name will also be passed down in the world."

"Although this is a good deed you did to atone for your sins, the gods of Olympus will still not embezzle your credit."

Nodding with satisfaction, looking at the reaction of the young man in front of him, Zephyros felt that his guess was indeed correct.

He had no idea what had just happened, nor did he know that this was actually a dangerous place where even the true gods would fall into.

He only knew that he had completed the task, and he immediately appeared in front of him.

"As you can see, Hercules, you have completed the second task I gave you, and you have completed it successfully. But young hero, you can't stop now."

"There are evil demons everywhere in this world, and there are also many beings who are unwilling to obey the gods. What you are doing now is just a little bit insignificant."

"If you want to atone for your crime of kinslaying, you still need to move forward."

Although the first two tasks had some mistakes, the results were always satisfactory.

So according to his previous arrangements, Zephyrus said the third trial.

"Go south, across the mountains and rivers, to the south full of miasma and swamps."

"You will find Hydra there, the descendant of the king of all monsters, a monster far more difficult to deal with than the giant lion of Nomisa."

"In the past thousand years, it has devoured fields, ravaged people and animals, and destroyed cities; the poisonous gas it spewed has killed thousands of people, and the fields have turned into swamps wherever it passes."

"It is the nine-headed snake monster, a monster with infinite life. It inherited the blood of Typhon and swallowed the blood of the goddess of life that fell into the human world."

"Your third mission is to destroy it and turn this evil demon into an insignificant embellishment in your legendary life."

The invisible airflow rolled up the branches and petals on the ground, forming a picture scroll in the air.

Hercules immediately saw the demon mentioned by the gods, the nine-headed snake Hydra.

He had heard of the other party's name. It was a demon that ravaged the water system in the south of the continent.

It has the strongest toxin in the world, which can even make the immortal gods miserable.

The gods are afraid of it, but this is not Hydra's unscrupulous reliance.

Its real strength lies in its immortal life.

Hydra has nine heads, eight of which can be chopped off, but only the core one is immortal.

And as long as that one is still there, the other eight can continue to regenerate under the powerful body of the demon.

The God of War once tried to go to fight, but the gods in the human world were no match at all.

Without divine power to rely on, he could not do anything to this powerful monster.

"Hydra demon... I will kill it."

Hercules' eyes moved slightly, the south of the continent... Hercules remembered that Silver Moon City should be in the southeast of the continent.

I don't know if I have a chance to go there to take a look... I think the new acquaintance Ander will have a way.

"Very good, Hercules, I have witnessed your courage, and the gods will watch you."

Smiling and approving, Zephyros thought about it again.

Although he didn't blame himself for not being able to find anyone before, it was entirely because the enemy was too cunning and the weather and location of this place were not good, but he had to learn from his mistakes.

If something similar happened again in the future, he still had to prepare in advance.

So the god of the west wind took out a feather from his body and gave it the blessing of the wind.

"To help you complete your mission and to reward your courage."

"Hercules, I give it to you. It can make the invisible wind favor you and obey your call."

"The journey is long, I think it can help you."

"I am on Mount Olympus, waiting for your success."

Returning to Olympus is naturally fake, but watching Hercules accept his gift, Zephyrus feels that this time it should be safe.

With the mark he left, no matter where the other party runs, he can lock the other party's position along this connection to prevent the same thing from happening again.
