Chapter 217 Brother, Sell It

At the same time, in the Elysee Garden, where it is like spring all year round, the sky suddenly darkened, and lead-gray clouds gathered in the sky to form a swirling vortex. The terrifying pressure brought a strong sense of suffocation to the four people on the field, causing alarm bells to ring in their heads and their hearts to sink to the bottom in an instant.

Oh no! Someone is coming!

And, very strong!

Seeing the brand on Adonis' forehead becoming brighter and brighter, Loen immediately understood the source of the disaster. Without thinking too much, he grabbed Adonis' neck and dragged him back to the Elysee Garden roughly.

As he moved away from the door leading to the outside world, the Prince of Cyprus, who was suffering from a splitting headache, felt much better. However, the hand that was pinching his neck forced him to lie on the green grass of the Elysee Garden without any relaxation.

"Buy me some time!"

Thetis understood and immediately summoned the river water in the Garden of Elysae, using the illusion that she was best at, to condense several teams of water phantoms with the appearance and a trace of their breath, and ordered them to pass through the gate of the Wall of Sighs and flee in all directions to interfere with the perception of the powerful enemy.

"You, hold him down!"

Upon hearing this, Sisyphus rushed to Lorne decisively and clamped Adonis' limbs tightly. The anxiety and uneasiness in his heart subsided a little as he was busy.

Don’t panic, there is still a chance!

"The powerful flame of light, the most powerful of all origins, I offer you poetry and wine!"

At the same time, Loen's face was tense and serious. With his other hand, he took out a large golden cup from the formed magic array and chanted a blessing at a high speed.

"I am the shepherd of the Lambs, that they shall not want,

He makes him lie down in green pastures, he leads him beside quiet waters.

Resurrect his soul and guide him in the paths of righteousness in My name.

Even though he walks through the valley of the shadow of death, he will fear no evil, for I am with him.

My rod and my staff, they comfort him.

We prepare a table for the believers in the presence of their enemies;

Anoint and seal it here, so that my cup of blessing will overflow.

Fill it up, fill it up, fill it up, fill it up, fill it up.

—Look upon this soul with pity! "

In the Garden of Elysée, also known as "Paradise" and "Elysium", the shepherd sang poems appropriate to the occasion while holding up a large golden cup in his hand. Emerald green grape vines grew wildly under his feet, and the air was filled with tangible ether, which turned into mellow and sweet wine, which was guided by the grape vines and poured into the cup, forming a swaying purple-red nectar.

"Open your mouth if you don't want to die!"

Following the cold groan and the pair of deep eyes staring at him, Adonis subconsciously opened his mouth.

Seeing this, Lorne immediately stuffed the Holy Grail into Adonis' mouth and roughly drank the full cup of wine.

In an instant, the golden flame spread from Lorne's arm to Adonis' body, and the whole body of the Prince of Cyprus was instantly ignited. The body formed by flesh in the Elysee Garden made a sizzling sound, and his skin and flesh were torn apart in an instant.

Seeing this, Adonis was panicked and his eyes were filled with fear.

"Oh, my, my body!"

"Shut up!

With a sinister look, Loen threatened Adonis to keep quiet, then looked at Sisyphus, who was grimacing from the burns but still holding Adonis down tightly, with a hint of approval in his eyes.

Although this old liar is a bit cunning, he is still reliable at critical moments.

"It's right that it hurts. Is the stuff from the underworld so delicious? Drink it!"

Loen snorted coldly, raised his hand, and threw the Holy Grail, which was filled with wine again, over. Sisyphus quickly caught it, tilted his head back and drank the purple-red wine in one gulp.

After completing the prelude, Loen decisively pushed the [Flame] with the power of purification to the extreme.

Suddenly, the golden flames on Adonis' body soared to a height of several feet. The charred flesh and bones carbonized and peeled off layer by layer under the fierce burning, turning into ashes that floated in the wind.

But when the Prince of Cyprus and Sisyphus calmed down, they were surprised to find that this cruel punishment by fire not only did not bring them any pain, but instead made them feel as if they were being roasted in front of a fire in their home, which made them feel warm.

Or you can approach a bright lamp on a cold night to dispel the coldness on your body and illuminate the darkness before your eyes. The negative emotions in your brain will be swept away, and endless courage will burst out from your body.

During this process, the wine that flowed into their bodies acted like a fuel, leading the flames to burn away the filthy flesh and blood of Adonis and the impurities in Sisyphus' body, leaving only the original purity and innocence.

Finally, as the sound of some kind of iron chain breaking was heard in the darkness, two dark auras of death that could not escape anywhere collapsed and disintegrated under the burning of the flames.

Adonis, whose original soul was separated from his body, collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily with relief, his eyes full of gratitude for surviving the disaster.

Similarly, Sisyphus, who was purified from the inside out by the flames, could not help but be filled with fear.

Fortunately, I only drank a few sips of the river water from the Elysee Garden and secretly ate a few fruits, otherwise I would have suffered the consequences.

"puff!"

At this moment, a muffled groan came from the front. Thetis, who was responsible for delaying, felt as if struck by lightning. His face turned pale, and a trace of golden-red divine blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth.

Seeing this, Loen's heart trembled, and he rushed forward and picked up the staggering Thetis.

"He's coming, go!"

Hearing Thetis' warning, Loen nodded quickly, but did not run away in a hurry.

He turned his head to look at the beautiful Elysian Garden and its confused residents. He narrowed his eyes and chanted the blessing again to fill the Holy Grail with wine, and then poured it again and again into this paradise known as "the land of bliss".

At the same time, the flames of the sixth incarnation burned fiercely, along with the wine that served as a combustion aid, igniting the surrounding plants, rivers, and even the confused residents of Elysee Garden.

“It hurts. It hurts so much…”

"What's wrong with me?"

"Who am I? Where am I?"

“…”

The residents of Elysee Garden, whose skin and flesh were torn apart in the flames, gradually got rid of the chaos in their minds, and a few traces of clarity and confusion appeared in their eyes.

Due to some unknown suppressive effect, they only remembered that they slept for a long time and seemed to be having an endless dream.

And at this moment, this dream seems to have ended.

“Buzz!”

At the same time, dark clouds rolled over the sky, and a turbulent deathly aura surged in.

"The people who locked us up here are coming. Run!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone woke up as if from a dream. Their brains, which had not yet fully recovered, were instantly filled with the word "escape".

“Whoosh!”

Then, four aqua-blue figures rushed out from the open door on the light wall at lightning speed, dispersed, and disappeared in a cloud of dust.

Following this example, the residents of the surrounding Elysee Garden came to their senses and flocked to the only exit.

Although the moment they stepped through the gate, they felt a stabbing pain in their heads, hindering their progress.

But this only made them more determined to escape.

——If this is truly a beautiful paradise, how could we use this method to warn and control them?

Moreover, as the golden flames attached to his body rose and danced, the pain in his brain seemed to be reduced and was no longer unbearable.

--escape!

The same idea was imprinted in the minds of the residents of Elysee Garden. Rays of light passed through the open gate of the Wall of Sighs and fled in all directions.

For a moment, the entire underworld shook violently.

"snort!"

With a gloomy snort, a dark beam of light fell from the inky clouds.

The light faded, revealing the full appearance of a tall, middle-aged male god. His face was not as majestic and powerful as that of the Titans. His appearance was quite ordinary, with a gorgeous helmet on his head engraved with dark divine patterns, which caused the surrounding space to slightly distort and his body to be faintly transparent.

The ordinary long sword that he casually held in his hand dragged forward as he did so, leaving a gully filled with death on the ground, and all the underworld flowers and plants along the way withered.

"Want to escape? Stop!"

The sword, wrapped in the deathly aura of the underworld, swung forward lightly, and flew in four directions with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

“Shhhhhhh!”

“Puff, puff, puff!”

In an instant, the four figures fleeing in the front of the team were cut in half.

Water droplets then fell all over the sky. The middle-aged male god raised his head slightly and looked at the broken and faded figures in the four directions, as well as the hazy raindrops all around him. His eyes gradually became gloomy.

phantom……

"Swish swish swish!"

At the same time, ivory doors appeared in the sky. The belated god of sleep Hypnos and the three goddesses of vengeance looked at the unhappy middle-aged male god and the chaotic Elysian Garden with embarrassment.

"Lord Pluto, we..."

"That's enough. I don't need any explanation! Catch all the souls that have escaped immediately. If there are any missing, you will have to find a way to make up for them!"

As Hades' gloomy eyes glanced across the air, the three dream gods and three thousand dream gods who were in charge of vigilance all felt a chill in their hearts.

If there really is a difference, the top few people would not be thrown into the Elysee Garden as bonsai, but they might not be.

One by one, the Dreaming Gods realized that trouble was coming, and they quickly dispersed and rushed towards the Undead fugitives in all directions, starting a massive capture operation.

When the surrounding Somnambulistic Gods and underworld guards scattered, Hades glanced at Hypnos, the god of sleep, and the three goddesses of vengeance who were negligent in their duties. He wanted to attack, but in the end he just frowned and warned them coldly.

"I don't want to see those rats in my back garden anymore, got it?"

"Yes, sir! I won't let you worry about anything anymore!"

Hypnos and the three Furies nodded quickly in response, with a humble attitude.

Seeing his subordinates' tactful performance, Hades nodded with satisfaction and turned back to his temple.

He also had to rush to finish a potted plant as a gift to his beloved queen.

As their nominal superior left the scene, the three gods who held the status of the main gods of the underworld breathed a sigh of relief.

Hades was often obsessed with trying to please Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, who ignored him in various ways.

Therefore, this more homely king of the underworld rarely interferes in specific affairs, has a very weak presence, and is more like a decoration.

But in terms of strength and status, they are definitely not someone they can challenge or provoke.

Three damn mice!

The four main gods of the underworld, who were punished in front of their boss, cursed certain culprits.

If that group of blind bastards had not sneaked into the back garden that Hades cared about, he would not have walked out of the temple in person to express his attitude and put pressure on them.

Once we are caught, you will be in trouble!

Hypnos held a flute, and the three Furies swung their viper whips, gnashing their teeth as they flew towards the sources of unrest and ruthlessly suppressed and captured the fugitives.

~~

At this moment, the Elysee Garden has been completely changed.

Accompanied by the sound of splashing water, four figures emerged from the mud of the riverbed and climbed up the charred river bank.

Sisyphus patted his chest and looked with lingering fear in the direction where the dark figure outside the Wall of Sighs disappeared.

"That was... Hades, the god of the underworld?"

"What else?"

Lorne asked back unhappily, while steaming off the water on his body, he glanced at Sisyphus who was dancing beside him.

"Brother, you are so cunning that you actually thought of tricking these ghosts out to be cannon fodder while you hide where you are!"

"Um?"

"Wise! I mean wise! Your wisdom is so great that even Athena would be ashamed of herself!"

Sisyphus noticed someone's unfriendly gaze, and quickly changed his tone with a dry laugh and started to make shameless compliments.

Luo En was too lazy to pay attention to the liar's flattery. After taking a glance at the chaotic situation outside the Elysee Garden, he immediately lowered his voice to remind him: "Stop talking nonsense. Let's leave quickly while no one is paying attention to this place!"

Although the most dangerous place is also the safest place.

But he has already taken advantage of the principle of darkness under the lamp to trick Hades and the other gods of the underworld. There is no guarantee that they will not notice something when they react.

Moreover, once the opponent captures the escaped undead, they must be thrown back into the [Elysium].

In this situation, they obviously can't continue hiding.

After sorting out his thoughts, Loen decisively concealed his breath, activated the speed of [Goat], and rushed out of the gate of Elysee Garden.

Sisyphus on the field looked at the two people who were leaving in a cloud of dust, then looked at Adonis who was lying on the ground. He could only pinch his nose and carry his brother on his back, frantically activating the blood of the god of wind, and followed closely behind.
