To be king [Greek mythology]

Take it easy.

The undead around Hercules scattered like a flock of sheep being chased by wolves, and the originally well-ordered undead team suddenly became chaotic.

Hercules swept over the ordinary undead and fled as if they sensed some danger. He watched them cover their eyes, and a puff of blue smoke rose from their bodies.

Hercules froze for a moment, and instantly understood how terrifying his existence was to this group of undead.

He hurriedly backed away, looked at the group of undead who were staring at him in shock, and showed an apologetic smile.

Hermes next to him watched Hercules' actions with great interest.

For the gods, whether these undead die or not has nothing to do with them.

Even if they really disappeared, it would be easy to recreate them, they were not like Hercules.

"I thought you didn't care about this." Hermes finally couldn't help but said, he pointed to the undead next to him, "Does it matter if they really dissipate? You are the son of Zeus, and Zeus even gave You are a false godhead."

"You are wrong to think so, Hermes." Hercules looked at the messenger of the king of the gods, "I can kill living villains or monsters, but this is the underworld, and the good and evil of the undead are not something I can kill." Judgment, their final punishment should not be decided by me."

"Then if you meet your acquaintance later, will you take it away or not?" Hermes looked at Hercules with a half-smile.

"..." This question stopped Hercules, he thought for a while, and finally replied: "If they are already dead, then I will not."

Hermes was a little surprised by this answer.

He wanted to curry favor with Hercules. After all, from the past to the present, Zeus was the most special to Hercules except for the sons of Zeus who were gods from birth.

Too good to be jealous.

After Hercules died, he would surely be recalled to Olympus as one of the gods.

At that time, they will work together, and they will have a good relationship with this person who is favored by Zeus first, which will be beneficial to the future and will not cause any harm.

Hermes is sure to take Hercules out, and it is no problem to take some other undead out of Netherland.

If Hercules wishes to take his friend away, then Hermes owes him a favor.

Hercules' answer, however, was completely beyond Hermes' expectations.

"You are truly a saint." Hermes praised half-truthfully.

"I'm just working hard for my own future." Hercules said, looking at the group of undead who avoided them far away, he tilted his head and asked Hermes: "Hermes, do you know that the nearest Netherland Did something special happen?"

Hermes froze for a moment, then shook his head.

Although Hermes is known as the most well-informed person among the gods, the Netherland is his shortcoming.

Why he didn't dare to attack Netherland alone, that involved a little secret.

Hermes, the messenger of the king of the gods, had an inexplicable fear of the underworld. It was probably because he was frightened by the angry and murderous eyes of the god of death when he went deep into the underworld for the first time.

He has always liked to form good relationships. When he first got the priesthood of extradition of dead souls from Zeus, Hermes was still very enthusiastic and often came to Netherland to help.

Until he was chased and hacked by Thanadus with red eyes.

Hermes still didn't understand how he had offended the God of Death, but this did not prevent him from silently including Netherland, the God of Death's territory, on his blacklist.

So he even came to Netherland less.

Even during the outbreak of a large-scale war in the world, Netherland was too busy for him to help, and he was limited to extradition to the entrance of Netherland.

No one knows the secret of Hermes, and all the gods only think that he doesn't like the environment of Netherland—after all, Hermes, who grew up in Olympus since he was a child, saw the barren and dark land of Netherland. It is quite understandable that the enthusiasm will disappear after a while.

Hercules thought so too.

Even if he didn't think so, he wouldn't deliberately guess why Hermes didn't know about the recent events in Netherland.

Being well-informed is not omniscient.

Omnipotence is the realm that Zeus can only achieve.

The demigod hero did not get the understanding of the terrified undead. When he talked with Hermes, the undead looked at each other, tacitly bypassed the place where Hercules had just stood, and re-formed A long line with no end in sight, marching towards the ferry of the River Styx ahead.

Hercules touched his nose, and didn't expect the undead to have any good looks at him, a heretic who would affect their existence.

He glanced at the direction of the undead, touched the animal skin package he was carrying, and walked along the team of undead.

He can walk much faster than the swarming undead.

Judgment stand.

Minos looked at Themis and Hera who were frowning, and knew that he definitely had nothing to do with this matter.

He is just an ordinary creature without a godhead—well, a creature that can stay in Netherland for so long is not ordinary.

But in this matter, Minos really has nothing to do.

"Cerberus failed to stop him?" Hera was a little surprised, she also noticed the rapidly approaching life breath.

The meerkat holding the golden apple and not letting go opened its eyes, sniffed the void again, loosened its claws, and stuffed the golden apple into Minos's arms. Before Minos could react, his leg shook Kicked off and jumped out.

In an instant, there was no shadow.

Minos stared blankly at the golden apple in his hand.

"Hermes brought him in." Themis frowned. "Recently, these creatures have become more and more unruly!"

Minos glanced at Themis who was looking angry, and lit a huge candle for Hermes and the creature who were coming.

You must know that the last two creatures who broke into the Netherland are still imprisoned in the Netherland. In a few years, they will be assimilated by the death energy of the Netherland, and they will not be able to get out completely.

"Hermes?" Hera froze for a moment, and also frowned. She glanced at Minos and thought about the calm and Prometheus-like human being who followed Prometheus. In the end, he didn't ask for the golden apple back, but just said goodbye to Themis, turned around and left the trial platform quickly.

She didn't tell everyone that she came to Netherland. Hera wasn't sure if Hermes came to find her, but no matter if she didn't, she shouldn't appear in front of Hermes like this.

Minos was a little pleased, and clenched the golden apple in his hand.

Themis didn't care about Hera who left, but looked back to the place far behind the fork in the Judgment Seat, the dark temple - also known as the city of death.

Under Tartarus, Gaia, who suddenly ran over a long time ago, and the two creation gods of Nix and some other heavyweight gods, the Lord of the Underworld, who was discussing the future dusk, noticed that the Hades beyond the abyss He frowned involuntarily at what happened on the Internet.

"What's the matter?" Rhea, who felt ashamed of the eldest son and cared about Hades, asked with concern when she saw Hades' expression changed.

"Recently more and more creatures have broken into the Netherland." The Lord of the Netherland said, in front of this group of gods who are much higher in status and power than him, he did not hide his fatigue at all, "My The power has already begun to flow, otherwise it would not be possible for the creatures to break into the Netherland like this."

Hades separated a clone, and some impatience drove him to the Netherland above the abyss.

Themis felt the familiar divine power response from the city of the dead, relieved her heart and resumed her serious expression.

"Hades lost power too quickly." Nix frowned, "We have to think of a way."

"Tartaros!" Gaia said in a deep voice.

There was a vibration in the space, and out of the void came out a god with a face as pale as a paper, and his brows and eyes were full of troubled young people. He glanced at the gods present and rubbed the center of his brows, "I am also very tired."

"Creatures have been able to break into the Netherland directly." Gaia said, "The scope of the Netherland and the abyss is decreasing. If this continues, the monsters and giants suppressed by Tartarus will break free and rush out."

Those who broke into the underworld like this before were instantly assimilated into undead by the underworld.

The undead have entered the underworld, and if they want to go out, they will have to dissipate.

But now, it will take years to do it.

The power of Netherland is closely related to the power of the Lord of Netherland. As dusk approached, the power of Hades and Tartarus began to flow away, supporting the entire Netherland, and they inevitably felt tired.

He is different from those emerging gods on Mount Olympus, and has a large number of human beliefs and worships. It is precisely because of this that without the power provided by human beliefs, he sensed something was wrong the moment his power was lost.

The reason why Zeus couldn't detect it was because human's faith gave him a steady stream of power, so he couldn't know if his own power was lost.

But the whole world is closely related. Once Hades falls, Netherland will collapse. Netherland is the most fundamental existence of this world. Without Netherland, everything in this world will become messy.

At that time, Zeus, who can't do anything at all, can continue to be believed by humans who have gained immortality because of the collapse of the underworld, that's another matter.

The coming of dusk is inevitable for any god—even the Creator God.

The gods of Mount Olympus and the sea world were the first to sink
