Chapter 1197: The Defeat of Olympus
The poisonous dragon in the kingdom of Colchis is a ferocious magical beast specially handed over to King Aeetes of Colchis by Shenqi Margotroyd to protect the territory, and the poisonous dragon with a similar form to the crocodile may have only one weakness, that is, it cannot resist the deep sleepiness brought by the beautiful music. In the complete crew configuration of the Argo, the lyre played by Orpheus, who has the skill of Apollo, the god of art, is said to be the key person who lured the poisonous dragon into a deep sleep, so that the Golden Fleece was taken by the Argo. Therefore, since the sea monster Kraken was consciously induced by Xunxin to attack Orpheus, so that the Argo lacked musicians, Iasong and his party only had the choice of defeating the poisonous dragon and its escort legion by personal force.
The back road was blocked by dragontooth soldiers and beasts, and the roar of carnivorous longing left despair in the minds of the demigods. Fueled by extreme fear and despair, the first demigod in the Argo's ranks swung his weapon at the dragon, and the result was not much different from that of the moth that put out the fire, except that compared to the moth that burned to ashes, the puddle of flesh and meat sauce on the ground at least indicated that a demigod had challenged the dragon.
"It's a pity that in the end, the demigod hero cultivated by the Olympus god system after decades chose to give up on himself when the crisis of life came. If they can still keep their sanity at this moment to deal with the incoming enemy, it is more or less possible to break through the encirclement. ”
Athena's eyes widened on the stone pillar, her limbs writhing wildly trying to break free from the chains. But the only results were wrists and ankles grinding from the rough but unusually strong stone pillars, and the indifferent gazes of Xunxin and Shenqi from not far away.
"Don't think about breaking free, the stone pillar behind you is the product of years of strengthening by Miss Shenqi. Let Zeus hold the most famous artifact of the Olympian god system, the thunder, and it will be impossible to rescue you for a while. Not to mention that now Athena, your divine power is almost completely lost, and even those demigods are far behind. ”
Although he was very reluctant in his heart, what he said was true, even the goddess of wisdom who was praised was powerless at this time when Olympus's long-planned plan to expand his faith was about to fail, and the tears overflowing from her eyes were not transparent, but full of resentment and hatred. Obviously a clever plan beyond the Divine Generation, in order to complete this situation-changing operation Argo, Athena paid the price that ordinary people even imagined to be extravagant before carrying out the plan to the final stage. But the result is not to mention the expansion of faith, and the failure of Operation Argo, which gathers most of Olympus's energy, will undoubtedly cause the already disadvantaged faith to decline again.
"Ahh Little Athena doesn't look good now.,Obviously she was a goddess who made people feel heroic.,Now it's almost no different from the demons outside.。。。 ”
Shenqi witnessed the gradual transformation of the goddess who could be said to be his descendant from a god to a demon, and sighed slightly sentimentally about the deterioration of the goddess of wisdom. Perhaps Athena, now corrupted by intense anger and hatred, can still be regarded as a member of the gods by relying on the faith she has accumulated over the years, but that ominous posture may not be accepted by the arrogant Olympian gods.
"There is no essential difference between gods and demons, and human spirits construct their consciousness and bodies, giving the identity of gods and demons to spiritual beings. However, this does not mean that he existed as a god at the beginning of his birth and remained a god until the moment of death. As far as I know, at the time of the origin of the World Tree God System, the Frost Giants were worshipped as gods by humans. However, after the defeat of the Giants in the battle between the Aesirs and the Aesirs, the beliefs of the Aesirs have turned to fear due to years of propaganda, and the Giants are now completely demonized into monsters that threaten the stability of the world, and no longer have the glow of being gods in the past. As for Athena's current situation, it is a little different from the giants ... ”
Athena's hatred and hatred for the Soul and the Divine Qi make her yearn for the power to destroy them, and the intense disgust generated by the spiritual beings resonates with the excessive negative emotions produced by humans. The fear, hatred, greed, and malice that constantly converge on its body have mixed the beliefs that make up the gods with foreign objects. As the dark side of humanity gradually manifests itself in Athena's body, the posture of the gods is distorted like a murderous devil, and the toxins that destroy the human mind turn into miasma and wrap around the body of the goddess of wisdom. The white skin was replaced by snake scales, and the foul-smelling and corrupt pus and blood slowly dripped from the surface of the body, and it didn't take long for the goddess of wisdom, whom the Olympian gods longed for and worshipped, to become a demon god symbolizing disease and destruction.
The aurora-like magic beam pierced Athena's heart, and although Shen Qi's eyes showed reluctance and regret, the magic array shining in his hand became more condensed with the injection of magic power. It was not only Athena's heart that was destroyed by the sword of magic power, but also the godhead of the goddess of wisdom and the god of war, which was the core of the gods on this planet.
"At least, to leave you with the last dignity of the gods, Athena... Now you are dying as the main god who protects humanity and strengthens the god system, not as a beast that I have crusaded against. ”
The moment the magic was cured into a hot columnar sword, the moment the purple and white lightsaber was pulled out of Athena's body, Athena was like a powerless robot hanging on a chain. Faith and fear dissipated with Athena's death, losing the godhead and the replenishment of the human spirit, and the physical body of the Olympian goddess of wisdom began to fade until the chains fell loosely on the stone pillars, and the crisp sound of metal and rock clashing echoed through the empty temple.
"It's over... Operation Argo that Olympus had been planning for years... ”
Witnessing the whole process of Athena's dissipation, Xun Xin stepped forward to pick up the fragments of the humanoid stone sculpture scattered on the ground. Athena's original gesture is this inconspicuous but human wish, and it is also the truth of the godhead of Athena, the goddess of wisdom. The palm of the hand clenched lightly, and the fragments of the stone statue that had lost the protection of divine power turned into fine dust again, and returned to the earth with the action of letting go of the heart and throwing it off.
"Now that Athena is dead and Operation Argo has failed, I ask you, Mr. Amada, to keep your promise and ensure that the kingdom of Colchis will not be reduced to ashes in the wrath of Olympus."
Shen Qi's mental state is still a little unstable after slaying Athena himself, but now Shen Qi is more concerned that the kingdom he once guarded will not be angered by the angry gods of Olympus. Xun Xin's request to Shen Qi was to smile slightly, and raised his hand in front of Shen Qi to open the light screen showing the current status of another god system.
"Anger the kingdom of Colchis? That would only be possible if the Olympus gods could draw up manpower. However, at this time, the Olympus god system needs to worry about whether they can resist the invasion from the World Tree God system! ”
