Mythology: Spiritual Ruler - Chapter 481
Under the shroud of fate, no one knows what happened in Mount Nisa.
The mountains stand in the north, and the goddess’s comings and goings are unknown.
However, even though he was thousands of miles away from the horizon, Ryan could roughly guess the choices made by the two goddesses, even if he had not seen them with his own eyes.
After all, in fact, it was different from what Lachesis thought. In fact, her eldest sister was not unable to bear the backlash of fate because of her current state.
The power of fate is invisible and intangible, and it can still act on Atropos.
But when she realized the situation she was facing, the goddess took the initiative to give up this burden.
Because since she had fallen into a trap, what she needed to do most was not to escape, but to pass on the signal of danger.
In this regard, Atropos was obviously successful.
“But there’s nothing wrong with this.”
“Compared to me going to her, it’s more appropriate for her to come to me.”
Beside the pool of the Aigario Mountains, Paris, who had obtained the treasure, summoned the wind and clouds with his magic wand and lifted himself away.
He couldn’t wait to see Helen again, and this time, he would still conquer her with his handsome appearance and considerate character.
Paris had even forgotten his father who had arranged for him to take refuge, and his brother who was probably still fighting the enemy.
At this moment, there was only one figure in the prince’s mind – just like he on another trajectory led Troy to destruction for this.
After watching the prince leave, Ryan returned to the main peak where the mountain fortress was located.
Paris insisted on doing so, so he naturally wouldn’t persuade him again.
Since the prince wanted to shine more, he might as well fulfill his wish.
After all, Ryan didn’t know whether the other two goddesses of fate knew what Atropos’s purpose was when he went down the mountain. If they knew… then Paris’s existence was just a ready-made bait.
…
Tap tap –
“You’re back, did things go smoothly?”
Stepping into the hall in the center of the fortress, Andrea’s voice, which still had some heroic spirit, came to him.
Looking up, seeing Andrea, who had already taken off her armor, Ryan knew that this premeditated internal and external cooperation should have ended successfully.
“Let’s call it a smooth journey. We solved some problems in advance.”
“At least you should not worry that our new ally will eventually go against Athens for some inexplicable reasons, or destroy itself.”
“For a long time in the future, perhaps the Trojans will become a solid arm of Athens – especially after some news comes back.”
Paris is going to find Helen, and the legend about this beauty is also famous in later generations.
However, most people only know her beauty, the Trojan Horse and the fire, but few people remember her true origin.
Helen, the daughter of the previous Spartan king, but her real father is actually a god on Mount Olympus.
Undoubtedly, this is Zeus’s attack on the queen/princess again, and Helen is the result of this encounter.
Later, Agamemnon’s brother, Menelaos, the king of the Argives, married Helen, and Agamemnon married Helen’s sister.
Later, Menelaos stayed in Sparta.
He eventually inherited the throne, and even led his army to the outside of the fortress not long ago to join forces with other countries.
In this case, Paris went to find Helen, in fact, to rob the wife of the Spartan king… The original ten-year war broke out because of this.
And now, even if there will be no more Trojan War, the Spartans will never accept this humiliation, and will only double the enemy’s return.
“What’s the situation outside?”
Ryan asked after finding a seat casually.
“Very good, with the help of both inside and outside, we penetrated the right wing of the coalition. Although Agamemnon reacted quickly and did not let the failure turn into a rout, the effect we wanted was still achieved.”
“Several coalition generals died because of this, and several small countries were completely wiped out.”
“And most importantly, after this battle, the coalition will never be able to act together again.”
With eyes shining like stars, Andrea smiled and said:
“They will be suspicious of each other and blame each other.”
“Those who are seriously injured blame those who are slightly injured, and those who have lost relatives blame those whose relatives are still alive…”
“As Lord Ilos said, once suspicion arises, it will be difficult to eliminate it.”
“Even if the gods can unite them with their power, they cannot control people’s hearts.”
“So if nothing unexpected happens, the coalition will be divided into several groups next.”
“Only by letting them break through individually can the shaky morale of the army be restored.”
Obviously, after recent learning and training, Andrea has become more and more familiar with these.
And Ryan just smiled and continued to ask.
“So what do you think? Do you want to keep everyone out of Athens?”
“No, we can’t do it.”
“Even if we win one battle, their power is still stronger than ours.”
“What’s more, the gods who are hostile to the goddess on the sacred mountain may also intervene.”
Shaking her head slightly, Andrea said firmly: “We need to retreat temporarily, but it won’t be like this forever.”
“The retreat is just to accumulate strength, and I have already asked people to evacuate the residents on the border.
“We will defend several important roads leading directly to Athens and block the advance of the coalition forces.”
“In the end, victory or defeat will be decided at the foot of Athens.”
“All invaders will find their graves there.”
Nodding gently, Ryan did not think there was anything wrong with this from a strategic point of view.
Besides, from the beginning to the end, the victory or defeat of this war was not just in the human world.
It would be best if it could delay enough time. After all, even Ryan himself was not quite sure when the main body of the fragments floating in the void would really come to Chaos’s human world.
······
Hua La La…
Ten thousand miles away, on the deep and endless East China Sea.
The waves were rolling, and the wind and waves were endless.
As early as before the Third Epoch, when the ancient sea god had not yet fallen asleep, the coastal waters of Chaos had always been stable.
But with the changes at the end of the Second Epoch, undercurrents began to increase.
The power of the Lord of Ocean Currents began to penetrate from the outer sea to the inner sea, and the new Sea Emperor was even more of a tyrant who shook the earth.
From then on, storms became the norm on the sea, and only a few routes could remain safe and sound.
And obviously, this desolate sea far away from the mainland did not belong to the range of the route.
Whoosh——
Wow——
Strong hurricanes occasionally passed overhead, turning the sea water into a tornado.
No ship could sail under such conditions and resist the power of nature.
However, the few people who were on the seabed and heading east were not panicked.
Because no matter how big the storm was, it would not affect here, and more because none of them could be afraid of the simple weather.
There was actually another reason why they stopped here.
“Oleus, is this the place you are talking about?”
Hercules said solemnly, fiddling with the mirror in front of him with a serious face.
If you only look at his face and tone at this moment, I’m afraid anyone would think that they are about to face some terrible enemy.
However, standing aside, Oleus was just trying to restrain his smile.
It wasn’t that the enemy was too scary – although it was indeed scary for Orleans himself, he had already recognized the hero’s strength after witnessing Hercules’s attacks several times along the way.
In fact, although Hercules was a little nervous at this time, the object of his nervousness was actually the ‘looking glass’ in front of him.
In terms of strength, the hero was undoubtedly very capable.
But in front of such a sophisticated alchemical product, even Hercules was just a rookie.
“Ahem…”
With a light cough, Orleans pretended not to see it.
There were things that such a powerful hero couldn’t do, which made him more popular.
“Look!”
Then he focused his attention on the looking glass, and after a while, Orleans suddenly pointed his hand.
Hearing the sound, he looked in the direction of the finger and saw a flash of black light.
“That is…”
“That is the Caucasian Eagle, the offspring of the King of Monsters, and a demon favored by the storm.”
“Wherever it appears, hurricanes will rage in the sky.”
“Legend has it that the former King of Monsters once summoned a black storm that was enough to destroy the world, and the Caucasian Eagle may have inherited this ability.”
He spoke slowly. In the past days, Orleans had mentioned this demon more than once.
At this moment, they were no longer far from the Eye of the Sea, and the Caucasian Eagle was the last barrier.
As long as they jumped over it, they would have a smooth road ahead with the ability of the alchemical ship.
“Can’t we go around it?”
He asked, but he didn’t seem to care that much.
Amon seemed to just want to show a sense of existence, but Orleans still answered seriously.
“It’s useless, as I said before.”
“The Caucasian Condor has unparalleled vision, allowing it to see everything above and below the water.”
“It may not be able to see through the disguise of alchemy, but it will definitely discover the existence of our ship.”
“Unfortunately, here, except for us, there are no ordinary sea beasts.”
“We have nowhere to hide, or rather, it should have discovered us.”
“It’s just that the ability of the sea whale boat is too powerful, so it has not yet confirmed what we are.”
Heracles didn’t continue, but he understood what Oreos meant.
Although the other party was not sure whether the giant boat they were riding on was alive or dead at the moment, the demon didn’t care about evidence.
For the Caucasian Condor, if it really found something it couldn’t judge, its first reaction would definitely be destruction rather than letting it go.
So from now on, they have entered a dangerous area.
“It doesn’t matter, it’s better for it to let us go.”
After a fruitless attempt, the hero temporarily gave up on figuring out how to use the ‘Looking Glass’ on his own.
He picked up the iron rod beside him and weighed it in his hand.
The Caucasian eagle was flying in the sky, and its speed in the sky was no match for Hercules.
However, the great hero was never afraid of difficulties. For him, this was just a test in life.
“Since it’s not far away, let’s solve it quickly.”
“If this demon must block our way, I can only move it away.”
Along the way, Hercules found that he and the offspring left by the King of All Demons were really predestined.
But every time I encounter them, it seems that I will only bring them death.
