[Greek Mythology] The Ugly God's Counterattack

"You said I stayed with Aphrodite?" Hephaestus asked, "Where did you see that?"

"The woods below Mount Olympus," Poseidon thought for a while, and then said, "I'm not sure, because I wanted to hurry here, so I only saw a figure from the back, and I thought it was the same size as you." They're all similar."

"Aphrodite is being punished in the woods, and Hephaestus is here too. Maybe he made a mistake." Hera came out from where the red light was split, and concluded, "Maybe." Hephaestus replied uncertainly, but one thing he was sure of was that the red light that trapped the gods was definitely related to the person Poseidon saw with his back.There is no other reason, just purely thinking this way, if I really want to say something, it is just intuition.

He looked at the gods coming out of the red light one after another, and then turned his gaze to Hades and Zeus who were fighting Cronus.

At this time, Poseidon also joined the battle.

Zeus, the king of the sky, Hades, the king of the underworld, and Poseidon, the lord of the sea, stood around Cronus in a triangle.

Thousands of years later, the masters of the three realms once again joined forces to fight against the second-generation god king Cronus, which made some Olympus gods who participated in the battle of the Titans feel excited.

This is a battle for the superiors, they can only stand below and worship with awe.

No one would think that it was unfair for Zeus and the three of them to join forces to fight against Cronus. There is no so-called one-on-one gentleman morality here.Recognizing the strength of oneself and the opponent and cooperating skillfully with those around you are the principles followed by the gods.

The strength of the kings of the three domains united together can be imagined. Under Hades' accurate judgment, even if Cronus wore an invisible helmet, it would not have much effect. Instead, it would restrict the development of his own strength .

Soon, many scars were added to Kronos' body, and he gradually fell below, and the situation began to favor Hades and the others.After his shoulder was once again pierced by Hades' Pluto sword, Kronos finally realized that wearing an invisible helmet would not help him much but would affect his performance.So he roared, took off his helmet and threw it away, then quickly spun the huge scythe in his hand, using divine power to drive the blast, trying to shake Hades and the others away.

Cronus used this sickle to castrate Uranus, the first generation of God King. He was as violent and cruel as Uranus.He rotated the huge sickle, and the sickle spun rapidly, throwing out thousands of wind blades that were as sharp as sharp arrows, and the wind blades attacked in all directions without distinction.

Not long after they came out of the red light, the gods relaxed a little and tensed again. They concentrated their attention and quickly avoided the wind blades that kept flying.

The figure of Hephaestus shuttled nimbly between the wind blades and the gap between the wind blades. While hiding, he observed the situation on Hades' side.

Hades and the others avoided the wind blade in an orderly manner, exchanged glances with each other, and then threw the weapons in their hands at the same time.

Zeus's Thunder Scepter quickly transformed into Thunder Excalibur when thrown, and his Thunder Excalibur quickly began to fuse with Hades' Hades sword and Poseidon's trident upon contact.

The key to defeating Cronus is to combine these three weapons to form the final form of the God-killing Spear.

Kronos obviously also realized this, he became even more furious, and frantically used his divine power to create more wind blades that were sharper than knives.

A combination of time's creative and destructive powers, Kronos' destructive powers are almost devastating.

These wind blades made by him gushed out densely like a rain of needles, and some of them hit the distant mountains, like a huge axe, splitting the mountains in sevens and eights in an instant, making a loud bang .

However, most of the wind blades attacked Hephaestus and the others.

Because Hermes is the fastest among all the gods, he is relatively relaxed.Athena can barely block these densely packed wind blades with Aegis, but other gods without Aegis, especially some goddesses with weak combat power, have a bit of difficulty. Their physical strength gradually began to decline, and they were almost blown by the wind several times. Blade attack.

It takes time to fuse the Spear of Godslayer, and some gods simply cannot survive this time!

Holding a long whip in his hand, Hephaestus threw away the wind blade that was about to fly towards Kalis, the goddess of grace, with lightning speed, and then dodged in front of her to help her block the wind blade that was coming fast again .

Can't go on like this!

His eyes froze, and he used divine power to condense the flames. In an instant, the raging flames quickly gathered into a huge impenetrable wall of flames, burning all the flying wind blades into ashes.

Then he quickly forged a 300-meter-high iron wall behind the flame wall with the magic ax against the flame.

With double protection, the situation here is temporarily stable.

The gods who got the respite couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Today, their spirits have been tense, relaxed, tense, and relaxed.

They looked at the double wall blocking the attack of the wind blade in front of them, and while they were shocked by the power of Cronus, they also had a new understanding of Hephaestus.

Hephaestus, the god of fire, stood in front of them, with his flamboyant red hair fluttering in the wind, and his slender figure seemed to contain endless power. He seemed to have magical powers, easily attracting their attention.

They looked at his back, or praised, or envied, or disdain.

Among them, Karis, one of the three Grace Goddesses who was rescued by him, had a shy look on his face, and then he clenched the things in his hands.

Hephaestus didn't look back, and could feel the sight of the gods behind him falling on him.Directly ignoring these different gazes, he looked at the fire wall and iron wall made by himself in front of him. While helping them block the wind blade, these two walls also blocked their view of Hades' situation.

Although he couldn't figure out why Cronus challenged the gods this time, as gods such as Hercules and Prometheus who had helped Zeus fight against Cronus did not come to help.But he believed in the strength of Hades, Zeus and Poseidon as the masters of the three domains.

From the sound of fighting over there, he could probably infer that Hades and the others had the upper hand.Cronus's roar became louder and louder. Judging from the time, the God-killing Spear should be about to fuse successfully, he thought.

Sure enough, in the next second, a huge impact force swept away, extinguishing the flame wall in an instant, and dented a part of the iron wall.

Accompanied by Kronos' unwilling roar, he was pierced through the heart by the god-killing spear, and he did not die, but the godhead has been sealed.

After Hephaestus evacuated the iron wall, Cronus had been brought back to the abyss by the gate connected by Hades' sword of Hades.This time, it will be a permanent shutdown.

"We have won again." Zeus raised the Thunder Scepter representing his identity, and announced the result of this duel to the gods.

In response to him was the shout of joy from the gods, and the beautiful goddesses surrounded Zeus and Poseidon, curiously asking how they subdued Cronus.

Hades came to Hephaestus and stared at his face for a while, Hephaestus, who was looking directly, frowned, then looked away, and said softly, "Come with me. "

Hephaestus was taken aback for a moment, and if he read correctly, a second before Hades looked away, there was a flash of complexity in his eyes.

Did something important happen just now?

Hephaestus frowned, glanced at Zeus and Poseidon who were talking vigorously, and followed Hades' pace.

Zeus glanced at the back of Hephaestus leaving with Hades out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly stopped him: "Dear Hephaestus, where are you and your brother going?"

Hephaestus paused, looked at Hades, and motioned for him to answer.

After being silent for half a second, Hades choked out two words: "Take a walk."

"Yeah?" Zeus was taken aback for a moment, and before he had time to think about it, Hades and Hephaestus had already left his sight.When he looked over, they were no longer in that place just now.

"How long do you have to watch?" Hera said with some displeasure.Her delicate brows were tightly frowned, and there was a little anger in her eyes looking at Zeus. Could it be that Hephaestus and Zeus really have something?

Zeus, who was very familiar with Hera's situation, was keenly aware of her mood swings.In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to Hephaestus, Zeus opened his arms and hugged Hera who was still wondering about the relationship between his son and her husband.He put his chin lightly on the top of Hera's head, and said in a low voice: "My most honorable wife, I just care about where the eldest brother and Hephaestus will go. As the father god of Hephaestus, I You are obliged to ask about your child's whereabouts. I believe that you, as his mother, feel the same way as me, you care about your child, and hope that he is as safe as possible," Zeus did not pause at all when he lied, but this What he said made Hera unable to refute.

That's all.Hera sighed in her heart, Zeus was able to explain to her that he still cared about her.

only…

Hera's eyes turned cold, it's best not to let her find out that he had an affair with Hephaestus.

On the other side, Hephaestus walked quietly side by side with Hades.He didn't even know that he had already been regarded by Hera as... the number one object in Zeus's beauty hunting list.

He looked sideways at Hades, who had been silent all this time, and couldn't figure out why he asked him to keep up, but he kept silent.

Is it really a walk?

But the complexity that flashed in his eyes just now made him pay attention.He always felt that during the time when the double protective wall blocked his sight, something happened that only Hades noticed but was not easy to announce, and that incident was most likely related to him.

Reminiscent of the red light that trapped the gods and the person Poseidon said he saw with his back, Hephaestus felt extremely irritated.

Seeing that Hades didn't intend to speak, he finally couldn't help asking, "Where are you taking me? It can't really be a walk!"

Hades stopped, looked at him, looked at him, and said after a while: "The woods under Mount Olympus."

"Are you trying to confirm through Aphrodite's mouth whether there is a person or god whose back looks like mine?" Hephaestus asked, but why did Hades suddenly care about this.

"Well," Hades nodded, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly took out a red shard the size of a button: "Look at this, this is what Cronus fell from after being sucked into the gate of the abyss of hell." He Pass it to Hephaestus.

Hephaestus took the red shard, and after looking carefully, his body was startled.The red shards were full of strange black lines. Although these lines were incomplete, Hephaestus still saw familiar patterns from them.

Such a familiar pattern...

So familiar... almost every time he looked at his own reflection through the clear water... he couldn't help but spit out the pattern.

No wonder Hades had been staring at him before, not staring at his face, but confirming the totem above the corner of his eye!

"You suspect that I did everything?" He couldn't help asking, the tension in his eyes that he didn't notice.

"No," Hades shook his head: "I never doubted you."

Hearing what he said, Hephaestus breathed a sigh of relief, and his expression softened a lot. "I'll try to see if I can perceive some information from it." After he finished speaking, he held the red fragment in his palm, closed his eyes and began to perceive it with divine power.

At this moment, the fragment suddenly emitted a dazzling red light, instantly surrounding Hephaestus.Some kind of fluctuation suddenly occurred around, and the frequency became faster and faster, more and more urgent, as if forming an invisible and transparent vortex!

Hephaestus opened his eyes suddenly, and before he could say anything, he was sucked into the whirlpool.

A second before he lost consciousness, he seemed to feel a pair of hands tightly holding his wrist.
