Chapter 285 Sir, This is the way! (4.1k)

Meanwhile, Olympus.

The once majestic and solemn great temple has been reduced to broken ruins. Rays of divine light collide violently in the center of the ruins, constantly forming dazzling auroras, trying to disperse the dark clouds and thunder accumulated around.

However, Zeus, the king of gods on the golden throne, with most of his body and one arm bound by chains, used his free hand to tightly grasp his own Aegis Shield, gathered the thunderclouds in the sky, and forcibly blocked the siege from the gods.

He even had enough energy to control the thunder and fight back.

“Boom!”

Thunderbolts as thick as buckets fell from the thunderclouds above, forcing the gods on the field to temporarily avoid the attack.

"Why? Why did you betray me?!"

In front of the throne, Zeus, who had a chance to catch his breath, angrily questioned the many rebels in front of him, feeling a mixture of shock and anger in his heart.

Hera, Athena, Poseidon, Apollo, Artemis, Hephaestus, Aphrodite... Seven of the twelve main gods rebelled. How could this happen?

"Then ask yourself!"

Poseidon, who had the deepest grudge against Zeus, his brother the king of gods, sneered and shouted, then smashed the trident in his hand to the ground without hesitation.

Suddenly, deep blue ocean power gushed out from the cracked ground, gathering the ether factors in the air to form rays of light that roared and rushed forward.

His kingdom of Atlantis was gone, a large number of his sons and subordinate gods died, and even the little face he had left was crushed to the ground and rubbed repeatedly. Did he really think he would forget these deep-rooted hatreds?

Thinking of the humiliating scenes of the past, Poseidon's divine power increased a little more, and angry dragons transformed from the divinity of the ocean bit towards Zeus in front of the throne.

Zeus quickly raised the Aegis in his hand, gathered thunderclouds, and blocked the fierce attack.

Seeing that the offensive he had gathered with great effort was once again dissolved, Poseidon looked at Hera beside him with depression and resentment.

According to the original plan, the queen was supposed to wear Aphrodite's golden belt and use the power of love to lead Zeus into her bedroom, have sex with him, and wait for him to disarm and become defenseless. Then the gods hiding outside the palace would rush forward and subdue the king of gods.

This is based on Hephaestus' successful experience in catching an adulterer. After all, when creatures are making love, their defenses are often the most relaxed.

Ares and Aphrodite, who were having an affair secretly, were easily captured alive by the lame Hephaestus because of this.

However, Hera would never agree to sacrifice her chastity and have sex with her husband, and she was disgusted by even any intimate contact.

Therefore, the gods had to settle for the next best option and chose to take action in the Great Temple.

Hera was only responsible for wearing Aphrodite's golden belt to lower Zeus' vigilance and lead him to the golden throne that Hephaestus had tampered with in advance.

This program has also had successful experience.

Once, in order to avenge his mother Hera who abandoned him, Hephaestus used his forging talent to make an extremely beautiful chair - the Throne of Hephaestus. Then, Hephaestus placed the chair where Hera had to pass. Hera was immediately attracted by this exquisite creation and sat on it without any defense. As a result, her joints were locked by the mechanism of the chair, and she could not move, and her divine power was also sealed. The gods were helpless and had to ask Hephaestus to return to Mount Olympus, release Hera, and promise her a position as a god and many benefits. Only then was the matter resolved satisfactorily.

The golden throne that now restrains most of Zeus' body is the work of Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen, after his improvements.

But in fact, the original intention of the gods was to wait until Zeus sat down completely, with his body and limbs all fixed on the throne, before they formally rebelled collectively.

However, somehow, this God King, who had clearly already been possessed by the soul, suddenly woke up at the moment when he was about to sit down completely. He waved his arm and shook off Hera who was supporting him, successfully breaking free of one hand and half of his body.

What's more troublesome is that although they killed the three Cyclops in advance and sealed Zeus's [Thunderbolt], they didn't expect that he actually carried the [Aegis Shield] with him. He used this defensive artifact to block several attacks from the gods and successfully got a chance to catch his breath.

As a result, the situation reached a stalemate.

Sensing the resentful look from Poseidon, Hera also felt embarrassed. She immediately drew her Heart-Catching Bow Koronakht and used her divinity to turn into a rain of arrows, tearing apart the thunderclouds gathering over Zeus.

For a moment, Zeus' hand holding the Aegis trembled slightly, and he let out a muffled groan.

Before ascending the throne, in order to please his sister, he vowed to share glory with her Hera.

Therefore, in addition to her own divine power, Hera was also given some power to control thunder and storms.

But the prerequisite is that they need to be a couple with one heart...

This is a collective rebellion, a life-and-death struggle, so why can Hera still share his authority and control his thunder power?

The traumatized Zeus was puzzled, shocked and angry, and his words were half threatening and half persuasive.

"Hera, are you crazy? I am your husband! If you rebel with them, you will never be the Queen of Heaven! Come back to me and stop making trouble. I will not hold you accountable for your mistakes."

However, what responded to him was the rain of arrows and thunder that once defeated the Titan army, as well as Hera's disdainful sneer.

"I am sober, more sober than ever before! I have had enough of the days before. Whoever wants to be the queen can be the queen! Don't try to manipulate me with this, Zeus!"

Zeus in front of the throne quickly raised the Aegis Shield to block the fierce wave of arrows and thunder.

However, since the enemy and I have the same origin, the Aegis Shield with supreme defense could not completely block the erosion of that power, causing Zeus' arms to become numb, his internal organs to shake violently, and a strand of golden-red divine blood to flow out from the corner of his mouth.

“That’s enough!”

The injured Zeus was furious. He grabbed the Aegis in his hand and swung it towards Hera in front of him.

“Boom!”

In an instant, a golden thunderbolt struck from the clear sky and hit Hera directly who was standing there. The smell of burning flesh and a suppressed groan immediately spread.

Legend has it that Aegis is a symbol of thunderclouds. When it is placed in the sky, the sky will become dark, and when Zeus picks it up, the sky will clear.

Therefore, this shield can be used not only for defense, but also for offense.

The highly concentrated electric charges in the air crackled and flickered. Hera, who was hit by a thunderbolt head-on, stood in the charred pit with disheveled hair. Her face was pale, her hands holding the bow were trembling, and a trace of golden-red blood flowed from the corner of her mouth. It was obvious that she was seriously injured.

When Zeus saw this, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. Without hesitation, he raised the Aegis again and pushed his power to the extreme.

Fierce lightning streaked down from the sky like a poisonous python, forming a dazzling silver color, heading straight for the Queen Hera on the field.

If this powerful attack hits Hera again, she will definitely be seriously injured, and the power that can threaten Zeus himself will be immediately weakened.

At this moment, the fully armed Athena flashed forward, decisively put away the Spear of Victory, and raised the other Aegis Shield with both arms to resist Zeus' indestructible thunder.

The king of gods Zeus struck the Aegis with all his strength, causing Athena below to utter a muffled sound.

Realizing that she had underestimated the power of the thunder, the goddess of wisdom on the field immediately gritted her teeth, tensed the muscles in her arms, and completely burned her divinity and power, forming a mighty radiance like the explosion of a new star.

“Boom!”

The two powerful divine powers collided, causing a terrifying ether storm to rise all around. The ground in the square began to crack layer by layer, and the entire Mount Olympus was shaking violently.

Athena and Zeus, who were fighting head-on, simultaneously swayed and staggered back, then vomited golden blood at the same time.

"Why don't you do it?"

Before the aftermath had died down, a deep roar was heard from the thick smoke and dust.

The gods who were watching suddenly woke up as if from a dream, and immediately joined forces to attack the injured God King.

Aphrodite swayed her graceful figure, exuding a rich body fragrance, and her beauty disturbed Zeus' mind;

Artemis and Apollo bent their bows toward the sky, and with the help of the light of the sun and the moon, they shot down a dense rain of arrows to block Zeus's actions.

Hephaestus silently chanted a spell, tightened the chains, and swung his heavy hammer to smash the ground. Dozens of flaming pillars burst out from under Zeus' feet.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Zeus suddenly stomped his feet on the ground, the muscles on his back knotted up, and lightning flashed violently in his eyes. The sky suddenly became gloomy, and silver lightning accumulated and rolled in the dense clouds, forming a terrifying pressure.

But at the same time, Poseidon was also furious, waving his trident like crazy. The mortal Oceanus Sea responded to the divine power of the king of the sea and surged up huge waves.

The raging waves that covered the sky and earth were something that even the gods of the sea had rarely seen. The waves surged thousands of feet high, like a pair of giant hands reaching out from the depths of the ocean, inserting into the stars and stirring them, constantly interfering with the gathering of power from the sky and thunder.

Under the full-force attack of the gods, the activated chains extended to Zeus' entire body, tightening his other hand that was holding the Aegis, and constantly pressing the small half of his body that was barely standing towards the throne.

"Bang!"

Finally, with the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground, the former God-King sat on his beloved throne, with running rune chains firmly binding the throne.

The Aegis fell to the ground from Zeus's hand with a clang, and the thunderclouds in the sky dissipated.

Success, succeeded?

After experiencing a series of changes and fierce battles, the gods who launched the rebellion looked at Zeus who had become a prisoner before them. They could not believe it and for a moment they had the illusion that they were in another world.

But soon, the sense of unreality in the gods' hearts was replaced by complete excitement.

Yes, they won! It was a complete victory!

Just as the gods were preparing to consider how to deal with the king and how to divide his power, the Sea of Oceanus surged up again with overwhelming waves.

Three huge bodies moved towards the Holy Mount Olympus at an extremely fast speed. They had fifty heads and a hundred pairs of arms, and their roars were deafening, like the collapse of the sky and the earth.

——A giant with a hundred arms!

The rebellious gods, who had thought the dust had settled, were greatly dismayed when they saw this.

Aren't they guarding the primordial ocean? Why did they suddenly come to Olympus?

In order to prevent Zeus from summoning the three hundred-armed giants to help in an emergency, they activated a magic circle at the beginning of the rebellion, isolating the flow of information inside and outside Olympus.

Theoretically, there is no way Zeus could call for this group of reinforcements.

Soon, the rebellious gods saw a guide with red hair, black wings, and dual blood-red daggers.

“You see, I told you there was unrest on the Holy Mountain and that the Father was in danger!”

The goddess of discord Eris greedily absorbed the rich divine power of discord in the sky above Olympus, and proudly showed off her accurate judgment to the three hundred-armed giants behind her.

The gods who were caught in the act looked gloomy as they stared at Eris in mid-air, wishing they could pluck out all the hair on her body.

But before they could put their idea into action, two auroras as bright as stars heard the news and descended on the outskirts of the Holy Mount Olympus.

As the blood-red and blue light faded, the figures of Ares, the god of war, and Hermes, the god of speed, emerged.

At this point, except for Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, and Hestia, the goddess of the hearth, all the ten main gods of Olympus have arrived.

Zeus, who was trapped on the throne, was overjoyed when he saw this.

"Eris, well done!"

A few months ago, Eris was reported to have sneaked into the sacred garden and stole more than twenty precious golden apples.

Hera was furious and prepared to teach this lawless heir of God a lesson.

Originally, Zeus didn't like this trouble-making daughter, but considering that she had some connection with the goddess of night Nyx, Zeus finally stepped in to mediate and saved Eris. Then he sent her to the primordial ocean as usual to continue to harm the lives of the Sea of Oceanus and weaken the god's power over the ocean.

Unexpectedly, this unintentional protection allowed Eris to rush to the Holy Mount Olympus with three hundred-armed giants at the critical moment.

As expected, as the three goddesses of fate said, he is the God King of destiny! As long as he has destiny, no one can shake his authority!

Zeus gave the order solemnly while struggling to break free from the restraints on the throne.

"What are you three waiting for? Help me put down the rebellion!"

Upon hearing this, the three hundred-armed giants roared, climbed up Mount Olympus together and joined the battlefield.

And then, Zeus looked at the other two figures in the clouds with a gloomy look.

"Ares, Hermes, are you going to rebel too?"

"Of course I can, Father God. I will find a way to untie you right now!"

The clever Hermes immediately rushed towards the throne with a smile on his face, away from the most dangerous battlefield.

"Me, I'll come too!"

Ares looked at his mother who was surrounded by three hundred-armed giants, and then at his father who was tied to the throne. Finally, he wised up and followed Hermes to find a way to untie the king of gods.

Seeing the reversal of the situation, Apollo, Athena and Hera, who were on the rebel side, felt their hearts sink to the bottom of the valley, and a trace of determination flashed in their eyes.

Let’s do it!
