[Greek Mythology] The Ugly God's Counterattack

Hephaestus frowned, and raised his hand to throw the person behind him over his shoulder, but the opponent stopped him before his hand touched his body.

"Don't move," a deep and pleasant male voice sounded behind him, with a dark aura that only belonged to the underworld. Almost instantly, Hephaestus had already guessed the identity of the other party.

Pluto Hades, why did he come here?

"I'm here to find you, Hephaestus, the thief who stole the Underworld Fire." Hades wrapped his arms around him and whispered in his ear.

The hot air sprayed on the ears, itching, Hephaestus' face turned black, and because of the closeness of his body, he clearly felt the slight vibration of the other's chest when he spoke.

"Let go!" Hephaestus was a little annoyed, this feeling of being suppressed made him very uncomfortable.

The corners of Hades' mouth rose slightly, as if he hadn't heard his words, and the strength in his arms increased a bit.

Hephaestus frowned, stretched the chain in his hand, picked up the long whip and threw it at him in the posture of the two of them.

Hades dodged and dodged quickly, and when Hephaestus threw out the second whip, he reached out and easily grasped the whip.

Hephaestus tried hard to pull out the whip, but Hades held on tightly to the whip.

The long chain was pulled back and forth between the two of them. In the end, Hephaestus became angry, raised a flame, waved his other hand, and the flame hit Hades with the chain whip, violently, and With high energy heat.

A smile flashed in Hades' eyes, he quickly let go of the whip, and stepped back.

Hephaestus sped up his speed and whipped out his whip flexibly.

The fight between the two was in full swing, and the sound had already alarmed the man in black in the house. The man looked up at them, and quietly left with Aphrodite on his shoulders.

At this time, Hephaestus was only thinking of letting Hades taste the feeling of the whip wounding his skin, so he didn't realize that Aphrodite had been taken away at all.

Although Hades glanced at the man's movements from the corner of his eye, he didn't speak to remind Hephaestus. Compared with those unimportant things, Hephaestus in front of him was obviously more attractive to him.

Hephaestus naturally didn't notice Hades' small thoughts, and after realizing that there was Aphrodite, the man had already run a long way.

Glancing at Hades, Hephaestus was about to chase after him, but just as he raised his foot, Hades suddenly said, "Do you know which direction he is running?"

Hephaestus paused, looked at Hades, and snorted coldly.

The corner of Hades's mouth hooked slightly: "Come with me."

Hephaestus moved his mouth, wanting to say something, but finally followed Hades.

The night at this time was eerily quiet, the mottled tree shadows covered the moonlight, and it was so dark that even the moon god Al could not peek at the two flickering figures.

Hephaestus looked at the back of Hades in front of him, and followed him as fast as he could, but Hades stopped suddenly. He didn't stop for a while, and hit the back of the other's head with his face.

Covering his nose in pain, Hephaestus saw the smile in Hades' eyes sharply, his face darkened, and he threw the whip at him, "You did it on purpose!"

Hades dodged sideways, pointed his hand, and signaled Hephaestus to look over a palace in front of him on the right.

Looking in the direction Hades pointed, two black shadows were fighting above the palace, to be precise, they were fighting for Aphrodite.One of them was the man in black just now, and the other man in blue was wearing a mask and couldn't see his face clearly.

So what's going on here?

Hephaestus put his arms around his shoulders and simply stood there watching them fight.Because of the angle, the men fighting above couldn't see Hephaestus and Hades standing under the tree.

The man in black is much taller than the man in the mask, and his fighting power is also much stronger. However, because the man in black seems to be concerned about Aphrodite in his arms, his attack and defense movements are a bit stumbling.

The masked man seemed to have noticed this too, so he frequently attacked Aphrodite.

Seeing this, Hephaestus asked Hades beside him, "Who do you think will win?"

"If you have concerns, you will be distracted, no matter how powerful you are before." Hades didn't answer directly, but the meaning is self-evident.

As if to prove what Hades said, the man in the mask took advantage of the man in black to protect Aphrodite, and violently tore off the man's mask.

Even though Hephaestus was standing far away, he could clearly see the true face of the man in black under the veil.

God of War Ares.

The masked man apparently also discovered the other party's identity. He seemed to struggle for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He threw out a puff of gray smoke, covered his nose and took the opportunity to escape.

With a movement of his body, Hephaestus stepped forward and threw a whip around the waist of the masked man, and then with force, he pulled the man in front of him.

Looking at the man who was wrapped around the whip and fell to the ground, Hephaestus raised his brows slightly and asked lightly, "Who are you?"

The lips exposed under the man's mask were tightly pursed, as if he was pretending to be calm, but the surprise in his eyes still betrayed him.

Seeing the other party's expression in his eyes, Hephaestus glanced at the sleeping Aphrodite and Ares, who was stunned by the smoke, thoughtfully.

"Thinking about what?" Hades asked, breaking his contemplation.

Hephaestus didn't answer, but asked another question: "Did you hold your breath when this fellow released the smoke just now?"

"Yeah" Hades nodded and asked casually, "You didn't?"

"Ah..." Hephaestus replied, but kept his eyes fixed on the masked man who was entangled in the whip.When this guy just threw out the smoke, he didn't hold his breath, but he wasn't stunned by the smoke like Ares. Could it be that he was immune to the medicine here?Thinking of this, Hephaestus smiled, "Let me see what you look like!" He said, walking over and tearing off the man's mask.

Small face, blue eyes, pretty handsome, looks familiar.

Hephaestus stroked his chin and turned out all the faces in his memory. Although none of them matched the number, he had some imagination with one of the faces.And that face should be...

"What happened?" Zeus' voice suddenly came from a distance, interrupting his thoughts.

Hephaestus looked towards the source of the sound, Zeus and Poseidon were walking towards here.

Zeus glanced at Hades, then turned his attention to the masked man who was entangled in the whip: "What's going on?" He asked Hephaestus.

"That's a long story," Hephaestus retracted his whip, looking back and forth between the man and Poseidon with great interest.

No wonder he found this man so familiar, upon closer inspection, he was at least six points like Poseidon.Reminiscent of the bracelet that Poseidon specially blessed, he seemed to know when Aphrodite was drugged.

Taking advantage of his lack of defense against Thetis and Eurynome, he cleverly planted a drug in the conch bracelet on the grounds of blessing.And because his soul doesn't belong here, he didn't get hit like Aphrodite.

But... what is Poseidon's purpose?What is going on with this man?

Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Hephaestus said to Zeus: "As you can see, it is probably because Aphrodite is so beautiful that Ares, the god of war, never forgets her. As for this man..." He deliberately paused before continuing: "As for this...what's going on, maybe only Neptune knows, right, His Majesty Neptune?"

"Haha... Hephaestus, this is just a beautiful misunderstanding," Poseidon laughed suddenly, walked up to the man, grabbed him, and explained: "This is my child Povini. Si, after you left with Aphrodite, I noticed that Ares, the God of War, was full of anger. In order to avoid accidents, I asked Bovinis to follow the God of War, but now it seems that an accident happened."

"Really?" Hephaestus raised his eyebrows and said inexplicably, "I thought Bovinis was obsessed with Aphrodite too. From this point of view, it's really a beautiful misunderstanding."

As soon as he finished speaking, Poseidon's expression was unnatural for a moment, although he quickly covered it up, he was still noticed by Hephaestus.What he can't figure out now is why Poseidon sent Bovinis to abduct Aphrodite, and why he appeared here with Zeus.

As if guessing his question, Hades, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked Poseidon, "Why are you here?"

Poseidon looked at Hephaestus: "I have long heard that Vulcan's smelting technology is superb and the palaces he built are magnificent, so I wanted to take a look around."

Zeus nodded, "As the owner of Mount Olympus, I should accompany you as a matter of course, but you..." His voice changed: "Why are you with Hephaestus?"

"I came out to breathe, and I just met." Hades lied without changing his expression.

Hephaestus glanced at him without revealing.

The atmosphere is a bit weird now. Hades, Zeus, and Poseidon, the three kings of various fields, are standing in a triangle posture.

And at this moment, a clear and beautiful voice broke the weird atmosphere: "So everyone is here."

Hera held the hand of Amphitrite, Queen of the Sea, and walked with light steps and grace.After they saw Ares and Aphrodite lying on the ground, surprise appeared in their eyes.It's just that Amphitrite quickly restrained her mind after Poseidon blinked at her.

Seeing the little interaction between the two of them, Hephaestus' thoughts began to spin...

Poseidon attempted to stun him and Aphrodite.

Povinis was ordered by Poseidon to kidnap Aphrodite.

Poseidon took Zeus on the grounds that he wanted to visit the palace.

Amphitrite, the queen of the sea, appears with Hera.

Poseidon, Bovinis, Aphrodite, Zeus, Hera and Amphitrite.

Connecting these names together, only these three names finally came to his mind: Zeus, Aphrodite, and Hera.

For a moment, Hephaestus seemed to understand Poseidon's purpose.
