Chapter 279 The closer your hand is to the halberd handle, the further your godfather is from you
It's that woman!
Zeus' heart trembled, and he immediately opened the barrier and spoke solemnly.
"What's going on? Tell me more specifically?!"
Under the slightly gloomy scrutiny, Loen did not dare to hide anything and told about his previous experiences.
"You know, I was cornered by the Hundred-Armed Giant and I accidentally broke into the Sea God's Temple to hide..."
Hearing the word "accidentally", Zeus glanced at the embarrassed person involved, snorted, and motioned for the other party to continue speaking.
Seeing that Zeus did not pursue the matter, Loen was completely relieved and quickly mustered up the courage to ponder.
"But as soon as I entered, I felt something very strange, as if I had collided with a cloud of black fog..."
As he spoke, Lorne's face showed fear and trepidation in his memories.
"At that moment, I felt like I was dead. My soul was being extracted and eaten away bit by bit, and my consciousness was dragged into the endless darkness. Fortunately, the noise of the fight between Poseidon and the three hundred-armed giants blew away the entire Poseidon Temple. She seemed to be afraid of being exposed and chose to escape, so I broke free from that weird state. I thought it was just an illusion, but as I've been having strange dreams recently and this thing has appeared on my body, I'm sure that everything that happened before was real."
"Not only is it true, you almost lost your life!"
Zeus snorted coldly, his eyes filled with deep gloom.
No wonder Peleus chased Thetis for so long, and no one dared to show up at sea;
No wonder Poseidon remained in the Poseidon Temple and refused to come out despite Thetis's constant calls.
No wonder as soon as the three hundred-armed giant brothers approached there, his brother who was originally timid picked up the trident and fought with the three hundred-armed giant brothers;
After all this time, it turned out that Poseidon was hooking up with the guy from the underworld.
He said that his brother had just finished serving his sentence in Thessaly, and as soon as he returned to the Sea of Oceanus, he began to forget his lessons and secretly connected with the sea gods.
Zeus, who discovered the "truth", looked up at Loen with a sneer on his face.
"So, this is why you hid outside for so long? You came to me only when you couldn't solve your problem?"
"Yes, a little..."
Loen admitted it with his head down, but he also tried to defend himself.
"But I am sincere to you and Thetis too!"
Zeus snorted coldly and did not comment.
He didn't care whether the boy opposite him was truly loyal to him. With the divine seal of the covenant, he could deal with the boy at the soul level at any time if he wanted to. These were all insignificant matters.
What really concerned him was Hecate.
Was that woman's mixing with Poseidon a personal thing, or was it a collaboration between the gods of the underworld and the sea?
Zeus thought secretly, his eyes flickering faintly.
There is a passage connecting the Oceanus Sea and the underworld, and the triple bronze wall separating the seabed and the underworld is guarded by Poseidon himself.
Once the two sides concluded an alliance, his good brother could open the three bronze walls and quickly join forces with the gods of the underworld to pose a threat to him and even the entire Olympus.
Sure enough, ordering the three hundred-armed giants to sink Atlantis and guard the original ocean was the right move.
The same thing happened with the beating this time.
And it seems that I didn't go too easy on myself.
Just as Zeus was in deep thought, Loen couldn't help but walk forward and ask cautiously.
"Your Majesty, can you break this mark?"
"Of course you can, but it's been too long. If you force yourself to do it, your soul will be torn apart as well."
Zeus replied calmly, and there was a hint of disappointment in his eyes when he looked at Loen.
I thought he was a chess piece worth training, but I didn't expect that he would be a discarded piece that would not be used for long.
Although this kid managed to escape the disaster in the Temple of Poseidon, Hecate has already planted the divine mark on him, and sooner or later she will drag him into the underworld through dreams, souls and other powers.
As long as the insiders are killed, no one will know the secret of the Temple of Poseidon.
Although he could control Poseidon at will, he could not cause trouble to the Moon Goddess without evidence.
Loen was not surprised by Zeus' answer and disappointment.
If Hecate's seal was really that easy to remove, he would have asked Hades, Persephone, and Athena to do it long ago.
Once His Majesty the God King realizes that he is a chess piece that will soon be scrapped, his attention to him will naturally decrease.
However, it was easy for Loen to re-engage the interest of His Majesty the God King.
"Then could you please grant me some divine power?"
"what you up to?"
"My life is not so easy to take. Since she wants to harm me, I will bite her even if I die together with her!"
Loen looked angry, but he continued to express his sincerity.
"Besides, she has evil intentions towards you, so I am doing this to repay your kindness to me and Thetis."
"Okay, I promise."
Hearing that genuine answer, Zeus was deeply moved and promised solemnly.
"Once this rebellion is quelled and you survive, I will personally marry you and Thetis!"
But despite the God King's passionate encouragement, there was still a cold undertone in his eyes.
He doesn't care about the life and death of his wife and children, so how could he really care about an outsider?
I chose to support and help generously, simply because what the boy in front of me said was right.
Hecate and Poseidon were in league with each other, and they were already a threat to his throne.
In this case, it is necessary to strike hard.
On the one hand, he ordered the three hundred-armed giants to guard the primordial ocean, cut off the connection between the ocean and the underworld, and find an opportunity to punish his brother again, so that he would completely give up the idea of struggling for hegemony;
On the other hand, whether Hecate wanted to silence the witness or use this body as a springboard to interfere in the divine power of Olympus, she could take advantage of the situation and use this vicious dog to tear off a piece of flesh from the goddess of the underworld.
——He also wanted to try to break through the [accidental] divinity of fate.
In the end, there are only two possible outcomes.
The boy survived, married Thetis, and continued to serve him;
If this guy couldn't bear it and died, according to the contract, he would get the soul fragment containing the accidental divine power of the other party. He would have full evidence of Hecate's restlessness in his hands, and he could talk to the Three Goddesses of Fate and get more permissions:
Since it is a situation where either choice is beneficial, Zeus naturally doesn't mind giving the little guy in front of him enough sweetness to make him willing to die.
Is this, in a sense, hospice care?
Zeus put his hand on Loen's shoulder, looking respectful.
"Do as you say. I believe you."
Luo En felt the domineering divinity surging into his body, and he immediately showed an excitement as if he wanted to die, and declared loudly.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will never let you down!"
Zeus showed a hint of displeasure in his eyes when he heard this.
"Your Majesty?"
Suddenly, Loen understood, moved his lips excitedly, and stammered out a certain title.
"Father, God the Father?"
"Well, Thetis and I will be waiting for you."
Zeus nodded and gave a satisfied and friendly smile.
Likewise, Lorne smiled, unusually brightly and happily.
The two figures standing opposite each other in the prison look like a loving and filial father and a happy pair of real father and son.
