Chapter 123: I am the victim?
What?!
At the same time, in front of the campfire, Hestia and Artemis, who were "loving each other", saw the huge waves on the sea approaching Sicily rapidly, and they stood up suddenly, their faces changed slightly.
As the raging waves approached, the nine Muses who were picking up shells on the beach immediately jumped up and sang together.
"Aa——Aaa——Aaaa——"
The high-pitched monosyllabic divine words, driven by divine power, turned into a resounding hymn. Circles of golden ripples directly collided with the raging 100-meter-high wave, trying to intercept it.
But after only a brief moment of contact, the golden ripples were swallowed up by the sound of huge waves.
The overwhelming momentum of the huge wave not only did not slow down in the slightest, but became even more violent and turbulent, like a giant roaring in anger.
Seeing that tens of thousands of tons of sea water were about to hit them, the nine Muses were caught off guard and were terrified.
“Buzz!”
At this moment, the sky suddenly brightened, and a blazing flame shot up into the sky, covering the entire island of Sicily.
It's Lord Apollo!
Seeing the handsome man rising into the sky like the sun, the nine Muses couldn't help but cheer excitedly.
Under the gaze of a group of beautiful girls, Apollo showed off deliberately. He nodded slightly with grace, elegantly drew out the golden sword from his waist with his right hand, pointed it at the sky, and swiped his left hand across the sword. The golden and red ether in the sky gathered madly, and a blazing light wrapped around the sword and spread, forming a colorful band of light, like a solar corona.
——The light reappears here!
The power rhythmically moved, the God of Light and Prophecy with a halo around him waved his hand lightly, and the hundred-meter-long Corona Sword swept across the sky.
In an instant, the overwhelming waves were neatly split into two. The water mist that evaporated due to the high temperature spread rapidly, forming a vast expanse of white.
The refracted light formed a magnificent rainbow in the sky, making the God of Light and Prophecy look even more handsome and tall.
At this moment, two rounds of crisp applause sounded simultaneously in the dense forest, and Lorne and Athena could not help but look at each other.
"It's such a nice fight..."
"I think so too..."
The two men sincerely praised Apollo's demeanor, but their eyes were filled with unscrupulous gloating.
When I was really sleepy, a pillow was brought to me. As soon as I put the bait on the hook, someone couldn't wait to take the bait.
Moreover, two came up at a time...
Tsk tsk, where does this unreasonable desire to compare come from?
Loen looked up at the God of Light and Prophecy who was showing off in the air, and shook his head with emotion, looking like a veteran.
However, he was also a little confused.
"By the way, why are all those Muses at the beach? Weren't the ones guarding outside before the hunting nymphs under Artemis?"
"Maybe, you heard that there are some wonderful shells on the beach of Sicily. You can hear the sound of the tide and take them back to use as material for recording songs?"
“…”
Following the sound, Loen looked at Athena who was standing aside as if nothing had happened. There was an indescribable subtlety in his eyes, and he was secretly complaining in his heart.
If I get cheated unknowingly in the future, I will definitely come to you for help.
"……die!"
Just as the two of them were squatting in the dense forest in tacit understanding, jointly protecting the radiant Apollo in front of them, a violent and ambiguous roar was heard from the waters near the shore. A half-human, half-snake male monster with a tail hundreds of meters long like a giant snake and hair twisting like a sea snake rushed to the shore. A pair of crab-like claws that were harder than steel swept towards the god of light in the air with lightning speed.
Not Poseidon?
Seeing the unexpected figure, Loen's eyes were slightly surprised.
"Phorcys, the father of sea monsters, represents the wrath of the sea and is an extension of Poseidon's divine authority."
Athena at the side gave the answer in a deep voice, with a hint of regret on her face.
"It seems that the real owner was not caught..."
Phorcys? The demon god Keto's husband?
Luo En listened quietly and understood.
According to legend, when Poseidon is angry, sea monsters will appear in the sea. When he swings his trident, he can easily stir up huge waves, trigger storms and tsunamis to sink continents and break up the world, smash everything to pieces, and even cause earthquakes. When he drives his chariot on the sea, the waves will become calm, and dolphins will follow him around.
Although Phorcys is often portrayed as a monster, he is actually a primitive sea god in ancient Greek mythology, as the product of the divine fusion of the old sea god Pontus and the earth mother Gaia.
At the same time, as a symbol of the wrath of the sea, Phorcys also happens to correspond to the image and authority of Poseidon when he shows his anger.
Therefore, His Majesty the God of the Sea has most likely secretly conquered this mindless couple of gods and monsters and incorporated them into his own system of subordinate gods.
Otherwise, it would not be easy to mobilize such a large-scale beast tide to besiege Crete.
But this is not Crete.
Even if we don't count Hestia, who is responsible for eating melons and cooking, there are still three main gods participating in the war, and a large number of accompanying gods.
Now, offense and defense have changed, my friend!
Looking at the father of the sea monster who angrily ran into the guns of the Sicily hunting team on the sea, Loen couldn't help but feel a little gloating.
Seeing that Apollo and the father of sea monsters in front of her had already started a real fight and were confronting each other with divine power on the sea, Athena couldn't help but shook her head.
How can a friendly match of this level be possible?
When you go hunting, you must see blood!
"Let's go, let's go help. Even though we didn't catch the real thing, shrimps will do if we don't have fish."
The scheming goddess of wisdom immediately dragged Loen onto her chariot, ready to go and "help" the god of light and prophecy.
Looking at the reins that little Medusa excitedly stuffed into his hands, the God of Hearth, who had once again changed his allegiance, was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. He could only helplessly control the Pegasus. After serving the goddess of hunting Artemis, he served the goddess of wisdom Athena.
Looking at the chariot speeding through the sky and the two figures sitting closely on the chariot, Artemis and Hestia in the camp could not help but look at each other in bewilderment.
"Aunt, we'll be back soon. Prepare dinner and wait for you!"
Accompanied by a loud laughter mixed with joy, Athena, who had successfully stolen the home, held a gun and shield, and stood side by side with Lorne, who was driving, and together they galloped towards the sea where the battle was fierce.
"Damn it! Don't run!"
Artemis was the first to realize the situation. She angrily accused a female owl of shameless theft, blew a whistle, summoned the golden chariot and the accompanying hunting nymphs, and chased after the owl.
As the two hunting teams went further and further away, the only one who stayed behind, the Stove Goddess who was responsible for guarding the house and cooking, looked at the empty camp and the fire that had not yet been extinguished in front of her, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
It seems like something is wrong?
