antique on the run

"I think the time is almost there."

After the four nights of cheating, on the morning of the fifth day, Saiwei said to Qi Xiao.

"The timeline in Greek mythology is usually very vague. No one knows when Zeus came to apologize to Hera and asked Hera to lift the curse on Io. But tonight is the last day of Hera's affair with Nautilus. Overnight, Hera will bid farewell to Nautilus and say they will never see each other again, so I think the mellow turn of events between Hera and Zeus happened around today."

Qi Xiao also agrees with Sewei's point of view. Zeus is likely to come to find Hera today, or according to the description of this period of history in Greek mythology, he sincerely confessed to Hera, begged Hera's forgiveness and pleaded with her. Lift the curse on Io; or like the shared memory obtained by Seve, Zeus threatened Hera with the evidence of Hera's derailment and asked Hera to liberate Io and not interfere with his relationship with Io.

Mentioning Io again, Qi Xiao felt a faint curiosity in his heart. Although Aphrodite had a bad opinion of Io, Qi Xiao still seemed to know that the incident that made the god king and the god queen burst into history What did the human woman of the biggest Cold War ever look like.

However, when Saiwei brought the heifer that Io turned into to the Queen of Heaven's Hall, Qi Xiao's expression was exactly the same as when Saiwei saw the general who made Soma Toyotomi full of praise at the general's birthday banquet.

Ah, of course it doesn't mean that Io's appearance is ugly. In fact, she is still a short cow at the moment, and she can't see her original appearance at all.

Qi Xiao just lamented how much Hera hated Io to turn her into such a miserable appearance.

——I have to say that Io's current appearance is definitely the ugliest among the herd.

Gray fur, short stature, short, thick and asymmetrical horns, her tail is not as long as her arms, and gadflies surround her, sucking her blood, leaving patches of rotten black spots on her body. Madara, it's really miserable.

"Moo-"

Poor Io seemed to be very afraid of Hera, and when she saw Qi Xiao, she hid behind Sai Wei in fear.

"Dear... Hera," Saiwei carefully kept a distance from Io, not accustomed to calling his lover by the name of the Queen of Heaven, and raised his voice: "I apologize to you, I shouldn't ignore you I wish to be close to Io, but now you have seen that she has been punished enough, and I also realize my mistake, I beg you to be kind and give her freedom."

As soon as the words fell, Saiwei clearly noticed that the divine pressure around the Tianhou Temple became thicker, and many visiting eyes gathered in an instant.Probably the gods realized that the God King and God Queen who had been in the cold war for many days finally had a dialogue again, so they all sent out their divine thoughts to project here, wanting to watch the excitement.

Qi Xiao naturally also noticed those guys who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement. He took a step forward and looked down at His Majesty the God King and his lover condescendingly. There was a coldness in his golden pupils.

"Are you really, really aware of your mistake?"

He grasped Hera's emotions, imitating Hera's usual tone and said: "I have witnessed your loyalty to the world, but you have betrayed me and neglected me time and time again. When you proposed to me, you promised that I would be you." The only God Empress, the only true love, you are willing to share your power and honor with me in exchange for my favor. My beloved Majesty, have you forgotten what you said before?"

From this point of view, Qi Xiao actually feels sorry for Hera. She is loyal to her husband wholeheartedly, but Zeus is always merciful and flirtatious. Hera tried to persuade and make trouble, but in the end he always failed Don't compromise with Zeus, and then continue to endure her husband's cheating.

It's like an endless loop that never ends.

But Qi Xiao's sympathy didn't last long. Hera was the seventh wife of Zeus and the only wife who was dubbed the "Queen of Heaven" and could share the royal power with Zeus. The tragic situation, and even sent a giant snake to kill them because of jealousy, which shows that Hera knows exactly what Zeus is.But no matter how angry she was, she never dissolved her marriage with Zeus. Whether it was because she truly loved her husband or was reluctant to let go of the rights of the queen, this was Hera's own choice, no wonder others.

"Of course I remember what I said." Saiwei said as if reading a line: "I am willing to sit on an equal footing with you and share half of the power of the god-king with you. We will get married under the witness of the gods. I share the honor with you. But Hera, can you swear to me that you have never done anything wrong to me?"

Of course not, because Hera was having an affair with Nautilus last night.

Qi Xiao sighed silently. I don't know how Hera reacted at this time in history. The poor Tianhou didn't know that she felt guilty towards her husband because of her affair and derailment, but after a long time of trouble, she actually had her. Men have always been only Zeus.

"My heart is loyal to you, Your Majesty." Qi Xiao bypassed this topic, "I can lift the curse on Io, release your lover, and even stop interfering with your relationship with her. But Your Majesty, I hope You can recognize my loyalty to you and accept my feelings for you."

After Qi Xiao finished speaking, he turned and went back to the Temple of Heaven, and brought Hera's scepter.

Since he came to this time and space, he has been using Hera's own divine power, not the divine power endowed to her by the scepter, so this scepter has never been used, and it has been randomly thrown in the corner of the temple until today. See you again.

The spell on Io's body was added by Hera using the power of the queen's scepter, so Zeus couldn't resolve it, so if he wanted to untie it now, he naturally had to rely on the scepter.

He slowly raised the scepter, aimed the huge and dazzling ruby ​​at the top at the heifer Io who was shivering because of fear at the bottom of the stairs, recalled Hera's divine words when using the scepter, and said silently in his heart: "My scepter , I am your lord Hera, and I command you to lift the curse and restore Io to freedom."

It was enough to read the divine language up to this point. He waited for a while, thinking that the scepter would obediently lift the curse on Io, but...

A voice that does not belong to me suddenly sounded in my mind:

"Your gender, male, Hera's gender, female, you are not my lord Hera, I will not respond to your request."

Qi Xiao...Qi Xiao flabbergasted gorgeously.

He swayed, took a deep breath, and it took him a long time to realize what had happened.

Because he retained a man's body, the Heavenly Empress Scepter refused to recognize him as the master, and refused to carry out his orders!

This is simply hilarious!

Qi Xiao was really angry and laughed back, his chest heaved violently, showing how angry he is now.The order of time and space arranged him as Hera, a woman, but now Hera's scepter refuses to carry out the order because he is a man. Isn't that funny!

The golden pupils opened suddenly, and a golden light emerged from the center. The majestic power of the Queen of Heaven enveloped the entire Mount Olympus in an instant, and the entire mountain forest was shocked.

Qi Xiao stared fiercely at the sky: Time and space order, come out!You speak clearly to me!

Here Qi Xiao was furious with the order of time and space, while Sai Wei looked at it from below and it became more and more wrong.

Qi Xiao seems... to be angry.

【What happened? 】

He sent a message to Qi Xiao with his thoughts.

Qi Xiao lowered his head, the divine power in his eyes hadn't dissipated, and he was shocked when he saw Saiwei.

[Io's curse cannot be lifted. 】

He barely maintained his composure and conveyed his thoughts to Sewi.

[Because I am a man, the Heavenly Empress Scepter refuses to recognize me as master and does not obey my orders. 】

【…】

Saiwei faithfully conveyed his speechlessness.

What kind of shit is this? !The order of time and space does not take you to play like this!

【so what to do now? 】

【do not know. 】

Qi Xiao was probably really pissed off, he threw the luxurious scepter that symbolized power and status to the ground, made a muffled "clang" sound, and then clearly noticed a faint sound of gasping from around him.

It was the divine thoughts of the gods, and they were taken aback by Tianhou's actions.

Her Royal Highness usually treasures the scepter the most, why don't you want it now if you don't want it!

Things are deadlocked here, Qi Xiao can't lift the curse on Io, Hera and Zeus will not be able to reconcile, Hera will not say goodbye to Nautilus, and Nautilus will not die because he misses Hera. To make statues, history is stuck here and cannot continue.

As time passed, there were whispers of whispers around, and the gods wondered why Her Majesty the Queen of Heaven did nothing after promising to lift Io's curse.But no one thought that there was something wrong with the scepter, and everyone thought that there was some disagreement between Her Majesty and Her Majesty, which caused Her Highness to repent.

[Do you know the content of the curse, Qi Xiao? 】

I don't know how long it took, but Sewei suddenly had such a thought.

The content of the curse... Qi Xiao frowned, quickly searched for the shared memory left by Hera, and then sent a word to Saiwei.

[My scepter, I am your lord Hera, I command you to plant a curse on me, turning Io into an ugly cow, and endure the harassment of gadflies forever, until the god king changes his mind and dares to swear by his real name, No longer coveting her beauty, no longer obsessed with her body, just ended. 】

This is the divine language that Hera uttered when she used the Queen of Heaven scepter to cast a curse on Io. Qi Xiao sent it to Saiwei intact, and then saw Saiwei's anxious and heavy expression suddenly relax. , a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

【I know what to do, Qi Xiao. 】
