[Greek mythology] Queen of the Underworld

Hera was keenly aware of Hermes' expression, and a powerful force suddenly erupted from her body, forcing Hermes to be restrained by this force, unable to move: "You really know."

As if to vent her anger, she pinched Hermes' shoulders with her fingers.

The sharp and long nails fell directly into Hermes' shoulders. These injuries are nothing to the immortal body, but even if the wounds can heal quickly, the pain still exists, otherwise Zeus would not take Prome Hughes was trapped, letting the birds eat his guts day and night.

Hera's nails didn't intend to loosen, and remained in Hermes' shoulders. The pain made Hermes break out in a cold sweat.

"Where is he?" Hera asked word by word.

"Zeus asked me to take him into the underworld, and I won't know about it after that." Hermes endured the pain and said.

"Underworld?" Hera let go of her hand in a daze, "Persephone! He actually went to find Persephone!"

Unexpectedly, she did everything possible to get people into the underworld, but it was not enough for Zeus to dispel his thoughts. The damned Zeus actually chased Persephone into the underworld. He should be punished by eating all the pomegranates and living in the underworld ever since.

"If Zeus was expelled to the underworld and ate the pomegranate, then wouldn't he be able to leave the underworld, so that he wouldn't go to another woman?" Hera murmured to herself, panting.

Hermes looked at the man who lost his mind due to jealousy, unconsciously trembling with fear.

But soon, Hera realized that something was wrong: "Hades has already returned to the underworld, but Zeus is still in the underworld."

This is simply not possible!

Although she can't say she understands Hades' character clearly, she still understands the basics.

As the master of Hades, as the ruler of one-third of the universe, Hades will never remain silent after discovering that Zeus has a relationship with Persephone, and even allows Zeus to stay in Hades to avoid her in Olympus. search.

"Hermes," she took a deep breath, "go to the underworld again and get Zeus out, no matter what method you use."

If his guess is correct, Zeus has never appeared since he brought Zeus into the underworld.

This made Hermes startled.

The underworld has its own rules of operation. Except for the undead, it basically prevents anyone from entering. Hermes is the existence closest to nature, so he can travel freely in the underworld.

Naturally, it can also lead people into the underworld while deceiving people.

This is why Zeus appeared in the underworld before.

But now due to unknown reasons, he has not come back.

Hera knew that something must have happened.

And Hermes also guessed that something must have happened.

It was he who left Olympus in a hurry.

And Hera found the Great Mother Goddess.

Since Zeus became the lord of Olympus, Rhea, the original goddess of time, has become the Great Mother Goddess. In order to show respect for Gaia, the goddess of the earth, the gods called her the Mother Earth Goddess, or the source of the gods. .

From the day the Titan War ended, Gaia disappeared in Olympus, and no one knew where she went.

And Rhea fell into a semi-sleeping state, and rarely appeared in Olympus.

Hera came to the place where Rhea was sleeping, knelt down and folded her hands on her chest.

Not long after, Hermes rushed over with an ugly face.

"The entrance to the underworld is completely sealed, and all the souls of the dead are brought into the underworld by Thanatos himself, and I cannot enter." Hermes said.

"Hades trapped Zeus." Hera opened her eyes and said blankly, even Hermes was blocked out, so Hades must have done something.

Maybe Hades and Zeus are evenly matched, but the underworld has long been an independent world. In the underworld, Hades is even better than Zeus.

If there was a fight, Zeus would still have a chance to escape, but for unknown reasons, Hades didn't fight Zeus at all, but trapped Zeus, which made Zeus helpless and Hera helpless.

"Mother God." She prostrated herself on the ground, "I beg you to help your son."

Hades ignored Zeus, but unexpectedly gave Rhea a three-pointer. It can be said that Rhea contributed a lot to getting Hades to the underworld.

"I told you." A cold voice echoed around the palace, and Hera could hear the helplessness in the voice, "Don't provoke Hades, Hera, you let me down."

"Mother." Hera gritted her teeth and changed her words. "I have tried to get Persephone to the underworld, but I didn't expect that Zeus would follow her to the underworld. I didn't even know before that."

The Great Mother was silent for a long time, and finally sighed slowly: "If you want to persuade Hades, Olympus must pay a certain price."

"As long as Zeus can be saved." Hera said resolutely without frowning. "I'm willing to give everything I can give."

Hermes looked at Hera in surprise. It was probably the first time he saw Hera like this. Without the ugly face made of jealousy, without the arrogance of aloofness, the woman in front of him was just a husband. Poor woman who is uncertain and worried.

Probably no one has seen Hera like this.

He suddenly remembered that he once asked Zeus why he was with Hera who was so jealous. The expression on Zeus's face was very strange. Hermes couldn't remember it clearly, but he still remembered the tone of Zeus when he answered him. .

"All jealousy is because of love."

Hermes suddenly felt that he seemed to understand a lot.

"Just." Hera added, "I won't agree with Persephone returning to Olympus."

Because of love, she can give everything for Zeus, and because of love, she can't tolerate anyone who is close to Zeus.

Unaware of the turmoil of Olympus, Melos explored a whole new world in amazement.

After he woke up, he found that the power in his body had become very strange, not easy to grasp, but it was much more divine power than before.

"Your Majesty has sealed all your divine power. The power in your body now comes from the underworld, from the power you grew after you obtained the Empress Godhead. Although it is less than one-tenth, it is better than the divine power you had before. Much better." Akarali was the second person Melos saw after waking up. Hades had been by his side since he woke up, but he rarely spoke. When Akarali came to visit, Meros Let her in immediately.

There are many things that he needs to understand.

"The Godhead of the Underworld?" Melos looked at Akarali with some puzzlement, "But...the Scepter of the Underworld..."

Shouldn't he be recognized after getting the scepter of the Empress Dowager?

"There was no Hades scepter in the Underworld." Akarali sighed, "The scepter in your hand was made by His Majesty's bident, which is why His Majesty was able to come back as soon as you had an accident, and why you You can control the underworld without using divine power, because it can be said that through the scepter of the queen of the dead, you rely on the power of your majesty. But now your divine power has changed, and the scepter will only be an auxiliary in the future. It is your strongest support."

Melos turned his head to look at Hades, and Hades looked down at the book in his hand without speaking.

"Zeus came to me, but didn't notice my strangeness, and it was also because of the scepter?" Speaking of which, he wondered before why ordinary disguises could confuse Zeus, but now it seems that when he didn't know, This so-called Hades scepter has already helped him too much.

Hades patted his hand as if to appease, Melos bent the corners of his mouth and said nothing.

"Speaking of which, our guest is still in the underworld." Akarali said, "Your Majesty, what are your plans?"

"Wait." Hades whispered a word.

"Wait?" Melos was puzzled.

"Wait for news from Olympus."

Melos looked at Hades, seeing that he had no intention of explaining, he looked at Akarali again.

Akarali spread his hands and said that he didn't know either.

Melos curled his lips and poked Hades' arm with his finger.

Hades also let him, did not evade.

But he also stopped poking and poking, looking at his hand with some doubts.

"I don't know if it's my illusion, I always feel that I seem to grow a little taller?" Even his hands have changed, and Melos looked at his hands with some doubts. He got off the bed and wore a white cloth around his waist. yarn.

The original wounds have all healed already, and no trace can be seen. The fair skin is shrouded in a shadow in the darkness, but for the gods, this will not deceive their eyes.

Melos looked at his body.

He wasn't sure if it was a problem with him being unconscious for so long.

Calculated by the time of the human world, he had been in a coma for at least a month.

It's just a pity that among a group of gods, he is the only one living human time.

But... speaking of human time...he doesn't seem to be "sleepy" lately.

He looked sideways at Hades, and asked with some concern, "Is there something wrong with me?"

Hades took him into his arms, and Akarali retreated at his signal.

"It's okay." Hades told Melos, "It's just caused by the loose seal."

Did the loosening of Demeter's seal affect Melos? Although the divine power originated from Zeus was sent into the scepter sparingly by Melos to trap Zeus, it still made Melos' body pump up Xiao Xiao, who originally looked like a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, now looks like a seventeen- or eighteen-year-old boy at first glance.

And it is precisely because of the loosening of the seal that the body of Meros is "loaded" with more divine power than before. It is also the power of darkness flowing in Meros' body after Hades strengthened the seal and completely sealed the divine power in Meros' body The reason why it is stronger than Melos' original divine power.
