Ares, God of War

Hercules pondered for a moment, and then replied: "Well, since you are not afraid of the consequences of offending Artemis yourself, then I don't care about it, and I will set off."

After finishing speaking, he did not salute Eurystheus and leave. He turned around and walked out of the palace. The guards guarding Eurystheus at the gate of the palace did not dare to stop him.

When he came outside the palace, Hercules found Iolaos, the God of War Ares, who was helping him look after his horses and luggage. His beautiful young nephew was indeed extremely handsome. Lacles saw rich merchants and nobles coming and going on the streets of the Kingdom of Mycenae looking at him more than once, probably thinking about how to lure this handsome boy back home to become a wine boy , but when they saw that Iolaos was Hercules' entourage, they immediately dismissed this idea.

What a joke, the terrible Hydera just left, it was a monster capable of wrestling with the gods, but it was still defeated by Hercules, in their eyes, Hercules can no longer be counted as It is a human hero, but a monster in human skin with a higher status and more terrifying than Hydera.

However, although they dared not anger Hercules in person, Heracles couldn't control the rumors spreading behind his back. After all, people's words are terrifying, and even the goddess Athena and the god-king Zeus can't control them sometimes. thing.

Hercules has seen someone looking at him like a monster more than once outside the Kingdom of Mycenae. It is estimated that with the completion of the two great achievements, his "monster" name has already spread, and now Judging by the winks of those people on the street, it is estimated that there will not be a few pornographic rumors about him in the future.

Although he himself knew that the soul of a wise and warlike god was entrenched in this beautiful boy's body, the others didn't know what they would think and how they would spread these rumors, only they knew.

While thinking about such a question, Hercules came to Iolaus. He handed his weapon to Iolaus in a haughty manner, but at the same time respectfully whispered to himself He told the beautiful boy in front of him about his new mission.

"The doe of Artemis...you don't have to be afraid of this one, just go after it." Ares replied after hearing the words: "Artemis and Apollo have a pretty good relationship with me. As long as you don't kill the doe then, if you are held accountable by her, I will come and speak for you."

Chapter 106. Hecate's Maid

Hercules' mission this time is hunting, and Ares can't help much.

He used to go hunting with Artemis and Apollo brothers and sisters a few times to those phantom beasts that were still running around on the land at that time. It's interesting, but it's just a taste, like fishing. Occasionally, Hephaestus or Apollo asks him to go fishing or something, and he will follow, but let him be like Artemis At the level of a serious hunting enthusiast, he couldn't do it.

In addition, Ares's hunting skills are naturally relatively poor, such as the most basic behavior of using footprints, blood, smell, feces, etc. to track prey. Artemis did it.

He will only draw his bow and shoot at the prey when he sees the prey, and he guarantees that he will not miss the target when shooting the prey, but these are just the fur in the skin for a real hunting master. There are traps to guess where the prey is located and other skills, but Ares has never used any of these skills.

So this time, he also told Hercules bluntly that in terms of hunting skills, this hero who used to rely on hunting all the year round to improve the food of the whole family is definitely better than him, so he basically can't help this time.

Hercules also expressed his understanding of this. After all, Ares is the god of war rather than a hunting god, and along the way, Ares has helped him a lot, and Hercules has basically repaid him There is no end to it, so Hercules directly stated that he is not a three-year-old child, so whatever the teacher wants to do, just do it.

As a result, Iolaos' account was temporarily attached to Hercules by Ares, while monitoring his surroundings to prevent Athena from doing things again, while helping Hercules continue to carry those luggage and arms.

And Ares's main energy was withdrawn into the underworld. If he remembers correctly, it would take Hercules more than a year to hunt down the doe. This time is enough for him to do many other things. thing.

The first thing is about Hydera. Ares has recovered it, but it is estimated that such a monster will not be tolerated on Mount Olympus. Moreover, it is also the enemy's base camp for Ares. Therefore, he Naturally, this useful big snake should be kept in the underworld.

Of course, on the bright side, he certainly cannot put Hydera into the underworld in his own name. The place where Ares, the god of war, should stay is the heaven of Mount Olympus, not the dim underworld. Besides, the underworld The gods may not necessarily give him such a big face for Ares.

But fortunately, Ares also has a good teacher. As a famous goddess in the three worlds, and now she is the regent of the underworld directly appointed by Hades, Hecate naturally has the right to raise her own pets in the underworld to enhance the power of the underworld. What's more, she came to the underworld with a magic dog Cerberus. This magic dog is also the child of Typhon and Ekadna, and Hydera's brother.

Therefore, after Ares told Hecate about this matter, the goddess of the moon readily agreed. She is still a little interested in keeping pets, and she is also very sensitive to the poison flowing in Hydera's blood. interest.

So after Hydera left Mycenae, under the guidance of Ares, he came to the city of Tenaron at the southern tip of the Peloponnese Peninsula. The ground leads to the gloomy underworld. Although Hades used to fill these natural cracks with his divine power to prevent the living from falling into the underworld, this ground crack was deliberately left by him for death or death. Hermes enters and exits, bringing the ghosts of the dead to the path before the gates of hell.

This ground crack is so spacious that even a body like Hydera can easily enter it. It walked along the slanting ground crack in this ground crack. After walking for an unknown amount of time, it finally came to the gate of hell in the underworld.

In front of this huge city gate made of countless bones and steel, Hydera also saw its brother Cerberus, who had gone his separate ways shortly after birth. After noticing Hydera, this The multi-headed magic dog that was lying lazily on the ground also suddenly got up, arched its body, and let out a threatening growl at Hydera.

"Cerberus, don't be like this, we are also brothers and sisters of the same mother." Hydera took a step back, saying that he did not intend to fight with this fierce brother, but Cerberus did not appreciate it. Pulling the soil on the ground, it kept approaching, even its tail with a dragon head bent over, and that ferocious dragon head began to spew sparks towards Hydera threateningly.

But just when Hydera was helplessly preparing to fight this seemingly unintelligent brother, a cold voice suddenly came from the gate of hell:

"Cerberus, sit down!"

"Wang!"

After hearing this woman's voice, Cerberus, who was originally ferocious and ferocious, suddenly shook his spirits. It uttered a particularly embarrassing dog bark, and then sat down on the ground subconsciously, turning its heads together. Within the gates of hell.

Hydera also looked at the gate of hell, and it saw that within the gate of hell, accompanied by a burst of light footsteps, a dark purple candle slowly appeared, and with the appearance of this candle, A beautiful goddess also appeared before the gates of hell.

Holding a candlestick in her hand, she came to Cerberus, kicked Hydera's vicious cousin very casually, and scolded him:

"Be honest, don't make a fuss all day long, screaming and screaming when you see something, otherwise I don't want you!"

"Woooooooo..."

Threatened by this beautiful and weak lady, the ferocious Cerberus could only cover his head, let out a pitiful whine, and didn't dare to resist at all.

"you are?"

Seeing the majesty of this goddess, Hydera couldn't help lowering her posture. It approached cautiously, and then lowered its head and asked.

"The regent of the underworld, Hecate."

Hecate held up his own candlestick, and by the light of the candle, looked at the huge hydra in front of him, then smiled and said:

"Are you the Hydera who came here at the order of Ares?"

"Yes." When Hydera heard Hecate's name, she lowered her posture immediately. Although Hecate was cowardly and lazy, her prestige was widely spread in the Greek world. When it comes to magic, the first thing people in the Greek world think of is the ancestor goddess of Greek magic.

"Well." Hecate came to Hydera, walked around it, and touched its skin and snake scales from time to time, and then she asked, "Since you can talk, can you also talk?" Do you have the ability to transform?"

"Yes." Hydera replied: "I can shrink my body and perform partial deformation, but I cannot completely become another species."

"Then try to become a human." Hecate ordered.

Hydera immediately worked hard to display its ability to change. Under its efforts, its huge body gradually shrunk, and then the snake's head closed together, and finally turned into a beautiful and lovely girl with a beautiful upper body and a lower body. But it is a monster with a long snake tail.

"Well, just looking at the upper body is quite cute, not bad." Hecate stared at Hydera for a moment, then nodded in satisfaction. She used magic to weave a well-fitting garment, threw it to Hydera, and said to it : "From today onwards, you are my maid, the servant of Hecate, the great goddess of the underworld, the snake girl Lamia."

Chapter 107. Pain is just a moment

Hydera, now it should be called Lamia, after swearing allegiance to Hecate at the gate of hell, Hecate asked Cerberus to let her in, using the power of the regent of the underworld to accept her officially. Became one of the gods of the underworld.

There is no need for Hecate to report this kind of thing to Hades, who is currently living in seclusion. With her own power, she can actually recruit gods at will and become her maid. She is in charge of governing the underworld. Hades has no authority over the responsibilities of low-level goddesses and nymphs, but Hecate thought it was inconvenient because Ares was stuck in her garden, and there was something that required running errands and working hard. Reese can do it for her, so Hecate has never found a maid, and the nymphs under her control are more haunted in the Field of Truth and the Palace of Hades.

But this time, Hydera was forced by Ares to swear a poisonous oath, and it could cause Hecate to study the existence of desire, so Hecate went to the gate of hell in person, made an exception and raised this Feng Zhizi accepted as his maid.
