Lord of the People: I recruited the goddess of heaven

"I am willing to join the divine realm and even become your subordinate god. With my influence, I can definitely make your faith explode."

Athena once again gave in.

But Jiang Chen could only shake his head regretfully.

"If you want me to feel at ease, you must at least become my fanatic. With your arrogance, even if you pray to me with all your strength, it will probably take ten years to become my fanatic. I don't have that much time. Even if I agree, Zeus will not agree. You should know this better than me... Well, I'm in a hurry to ascend to the third heaven. Decide whether to die or surrender as soon as possible."

Athena's face turned pale instantly.

Jiang Chen is right.

Once it is confirmed that Athena has become Jiang Chen's fanatical follower, Zeus will most likely immediately destroy Athena's territory in the First Heaven, causing Athena to lose her status as a lord.

Athena and Medanzo are completely different.

First of all, Athena came from the first heaven. According to the rules of heaven, people from the upper world could not bring their territories with them when they descended to the lower world, so her territory could only remain on Mount Olympus, but now it had become her death warrant.

Secondly, Athena's combat power far exceeds that of Medanzo.

If Medanzo refuses to surrender, Jiang Chen can suppress him for hundreds of years and slowly wear him down, but this cannot happen with Athena.

Once Jiang Chen ascends to the third heaven, Athena will instantly trap the dragon and ascend to heaven, escaping.

Therefore, Athena’s mistake was that she was too strong.

Jiang Chen thought Athena would delay until the last minute, but after just over ten minutes, Athena took a deep breath and made a decision.

"I want to be a hero."

Athena took a last lingering look at her own little world, as well as the heroes and soldiers who had followed her for nearly a million years, and said calmly:

"Can you lift the world ban? Before I am demoted to a hero, I hope to issue one last oracle to allow my followers to join the Jianghuang God System."

Jiang Chen showed a surprised look.

Unexpectedly, before he even made this request, Athena took the initiative to bring it up.

Really self-aware.

Of course, there is another possibility, that is, Athena intended to leave a will, asking her believers to avenge her and disgust Jiang Chen before she died.

However, when he thought of Athena's divine duties, Jiang Chen immediately agreed.

"it is good!"

Having said that, he immediately lifted the information ban on Athena.

Now it was Athena's turn to be surprised: "Your Majesty, Emperor Jiang, aren't you afraid that I will perish with you?"

Jiang Chen shook his head: "The God of Wisdom will not do anything unwise."

Even if Athena was really determined to die, it would have no effect on Jiang Chen.

She is just one of the twelve main gods of Olympus. Jiang Chen has offended the entire Mount Olympus, so why is he afraid of Athena's believers?

Faced with Jiang Chen's trust, Athena seemed to feel better. She bowed to Jiang Chen for the first time in her life, then communicated with her kingdom of God and issued the last oracle as a lord.

[I am Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom. I have decided to become a hero and submit to the great Lord of the Divine Realm, His Majesty the Emperor Jiang. All my believers should follow my footsteps and transfer their faith.]

She is worthy of being the goddess of wisdom.

In Athena's situation, both dying bravely and surrendering completely were wise decisions.

I am afraid of some stupid people who are not so smart. They choose to surrender out of fear of death, but put on an unwilling and sour face, and end up being unpopular with everyone.

Otherwise, why do people say Jiang Chen likes smart people?

For Athena, mobilizing these believers to join the God's Domain was not only to get along well with Jiang Chen, the new leader, but also for herself. Even if she became a hero in the future and had the support of hundreds of millions of lords, she would still have a high status in the God's Domain.

Of course, Athena's target is only true believers.

It is useless to send it to casual believers or shallow believers.

Although it was impossible to attract all the believers after Athena's oracle was passed down, it instantly increased the number of Jiang Chen's believers.

Soon, new threads of faith connected to Jiang Chen's sea of ​​consciousness. Under the forging of the Divine Stone of Creation, tens of thousands of divine power crystals were condensed in just over ten seconds.

Jiang Chen listened to the prayers in several of the most robust faith channels.

"Your Majesty, the great Emperor Jiang, I am willing to become your believer. I beg you to treat the goddess well."

Most of them were prayers, but there were also threats.

"Your Majesty, if you oppress the goddess, I will transform into the god of vengeance and fight the Divine Realm to the death."

"Jiang Chen, get out here. I know you can hear me. I am Baal, the Eternal Lord of the First Heaven. I order you to release the goddess immediately."

Unexpectedly, Athena actually has several Eternal Lord believers. Among them, the thread of faith of the one named Baal is as black as ink. He is probably an admirer of Athena and he wants to kill Jiang Chen at this moment.

Athena must have received countless prayers and advice, but none of that mattered.

There are strict hierarchies among arms, heroes, and lords. It is extremely difficult to advance to the next level, but choosing to retreat is a matter of thought.

"I'm glad to have fought alongside you all for a million years. See you again if we're lucky."

After waving goodbye to her heroes and soldiers for the last time, Athena no longer lingered and opened her arms.

boom--

The moment Athena became a hero, Jiang Chen clearly heard the sound of the world's annihilation.

Also destroyed were the rare treasures accumulated in Athena's small world for countless years, and even the wonders of the world.

These things all came from the First Heaven. When Athena descended to the Fourth Heaven, they were all locked and could not be traded, so they could only be destroyed.

Similarly, all of Athena's subordinates, including thousands of Eternals, turned into starlight and dissipated between heaven and earth, waiting for the next lord to recruit them.

At the same time, on Mount Olympus in the first heaven, in a luxurious territory that originally stood on the top of the mountain, all the buildings burst into fine cracks at the same time, and the fragments turned into pure energy, as if they had never existed.

In the western sky, a star suddenly burst out with a brilliance comparable to that of the sun, then slowly faded away and finally disappeared completely in the sky.

That is Athena's kingdom.

A hero is not an independent unit and is not qualified to own a territory, a small world, or a kingdom of God. He is not even qualified to condense godhood.

Athena's devout followers can still pray, but they will never receive a response.

The collapse of the kingdom of God also meant the end of Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom, and the birth of the hero Athena.

At this moment, from the first heaven to the eighth heaven.

All the lords who saw this scene were stunned into silence.

The Olympian goddess of war and wisdom has fallen!

Soon, the content of Athena's last oracle also spread from the mouths of her followers.

"Athena, my daughter!!! Jiang Chen, you really dare! Even if I offend the First Saint King, I will fight you to the death."

"Jiang Chen... could it be that fierce man from the Fifth Heaven again? I remember he caused a big disturbance in the Underworld not long ago. The young are really formidable."

"Goddess Athena is willing to become a hero of a netherworld lord. Who is this guy?"

"Ah, who would have thought that an Eternal Lord who reached the 20th level in a small world would fall in the lower realm."

"This is the battlefield of all races!"

It can be predicted that for a considerable period of time in the future, the eternities in the upper realm will think carefully before descending to the lower realm.

Even if you are not afraid of death, dying like this is too depressing.

Some were angry, some were amazed, some were regretful, and some were... surprised.

The one who was surprised was naturally Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen has already become famous throughout the world.

But the battlefield of all races is boundless, and countless major events happen every moment, even the extinction of races.

Even though wars like the Battle of Gospel City, the Battle of Lingshan, and the Battle of the Underworld made Jiang Chen famous throughout the world, their popularity faded after only a few days.

The accumulation of the path to the gods and fixed believers is equivalent to wages. If you want to get rich quickly, you have to rely on hype.

This is also why many little gods occasionally release a scandal, shoot a joke, or release a nude photo.

The conquest of Athena this time was equivalent to another wave of hype, pushing Jiang Chen to the top of the hot search list in the battlefield of all races.

And what’s different from the past is that this time Jiang Chen attracted the attention of almost all the lords of the first and second heavens.

So in just half an hour, Jiang Chen earned hundreds of thousands of divine power crystals, which was equivalent to several years of daily accumulation.

What surprised Jiang Chen the most was Athena's attributes and skills.

"Athena, does Zeus know you are so strong?"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but complain.

He even wondered if Zeus would force his daughter to be a hero if he knew what Athena would be like after becoming a hero.

Athena also closed her mouth which was slightly open due to shock.

"It is said that when an Eternal Lord like me degenerates into a hero, he will receive energy from the small world and the kingdom of God to a certain extent, either his rank will be improved or his skills will be strengthened, but the specific direction of the strengthening can only be left to fate. I didn't expect that after becoming a hero, not only did my rank improve, but I also gained two more Eternal skills."

At this point, Athena laughed at herself:

"Am I born to be a hero?"
