Chapter 405: Page 405

Pausanias stared intently.

The gods are summoning the heroic spirits who once fought for humanity.

Pausanias was also a little puzzled, but later he realized that the Oracle could no longer defeat Hilder and his men. Their strength had long surpassed the Oracle's scope and could directly fight against the gods. Therefore, it was necessary to summon the former demigod heroes to fight against Hilder. Although at this point, the gods and them seemed very weak, but if they were really summoned, victory would be at hand.

Ares frowned tightly.

He didn't want to do this, but that was what Zeus wanted.

The heroes who once fought for gods and humans are now here again.

"coming."

Dionysius's eyes focused.

The sight was focused on the center.

Along with the surging power, several figures gradually emerged in the strong white light. They were wearing ancient animal skin armor or copper armor, tall and muscular, standing in the center of the light like gods. When they appeared, Dionysius couldn't help but widen his eyes. Although he didn't know who these heroes were, the sense of oppression they conveyed was indeed not the feeling of the oracle, but like a god, with a strong pressure.

Even Dionysius' legs.

They all started to tremble.

"It's really, really scary..."

"Indeed."

Pausanias could also feel that suffocating feeling.

Ares, who was in charge of the ceremony, looked helplessly at the four people who appeared in front of him.

To be precise, they are demigods, heroes whose power is no less than his own, but they should have died, either in battle or from old age, but now they appear here.

"This is……"

At this time, a handsome man looked around in confusion.

"I...amn't I dead?"

"yes?"

The other three also expressed doubts.

But when they saw Ares standing in front of them, they all took several steps back.

"Ares... sir?"

"No need to panic."

Ares took a deep breath.

"Now, I am going to explain to you what happened."

----------

Four heroes were summoned.

They are -

Theseus, King of Athens.

Achilles, son of Thetis.

Jason, the hero who sought the Golden Fleece.

And the Centaur, Chiron.

These four heroes were all legendary characters who were once active in Greece. Their names were sung throughout Greece. However, they themselves were completely unaware of this, especially Achilles, who was shot in the ankle by Paris' arrow during the Trojan War and died on the battlefield. However, now he found himself alive again and had a new body. Moreover, standing in front of him was Ares, who had once been at odds with him... If Hercules had not been here, Achilles would have been the first to be unwilling.

Regarding the current situation.

Chiron was the first to understand.

"So, we have never died, but have been 'saved' by Lord Zeus."

Chiron deliberately put emphasis on the word "save".

Hearing this, Achilles said angrily: "I died on the battlefield, why can't my soul enter the underworld!"

"You are legendary heroes. Your souls will be used by Hades, the god of the underworld. This is the reason given by Lord Zeus." Ares smiled helplessly. "In fact, I only learned about this recently. I originally thought that you all had left this world."

"What time is it now?"

Theseus looked at his hands.

"Where is my Athens?"

"Your Athens has been conquered."

"What!? Who is it?!"

"It's a man called Hilde..."

Now, Ares didn't know how to explain it.

In fact, these four heroes are also very coincidental. Chiron is Achilles' teacher, and Theseus once tried to take Helen away. Although he did not directly participate in the Trojan War, he is also a character related to Helen. Jason is even older. After Jason died, his brother Dardanus crossed mountains and came to the Asiatic continent, where the Simois River and the Scomante River meet and flow into the sea, which is called the Mysia Gulf.

Later, Dardanus married the daughter of the local king and had his own fiefdom. His grandson was called Tros, and the capital of his territory was called Troy. This is the origin of Troy.

The first tune, the second section, the confusing current situation

Therefore, it can be said that Jason is the ancestor of the Trojans.

But no matter what.

These four heroes are all very famous in the Greek world today.

But seeing these heroes confused or angry, Ares felt uncomfortable. Originally, they should die, rest in peace, and their souls should be reincarnated. But now, they who shine in this world cannot even fulfill their most basic wish of death. Such an ending is really unacceptable. Seeing this scene, Ares felt even more angry.

Greedy Zeus...

As a famous hero.

After Ares, Hercules and others explained.

They have accepted this situation for the time being.

However, judging from Chiron's attitude, this matter is probably not as smooth as it appears now. They are just obeying the gods and have not reacted yet. However, controlling their souls and summoning them at this time is unacceptable anyway. They also think that it is really the gods who need them and the world that needs them, so this is the case. However, when they realize the greed of the gods one day, it is uncertain what they will say.

As for Ares.

How many heroic spirits are still controlled by Zeus?

Now there are only four of us.

What if these four people can't stop Hilde?

Ares didn't dare to imagine what would happen next. If he continued to let it go like this, he really couldn't accept it. So, after settling the four heroes, Ares thought again and again and went to find Hercules, who also had opinions on this matter. However, Ares didn't know what Hercules thought for the time being, so he could only choose to test it.

“I think it’s excessive.”

After Ares put forward his idea.

Hercules also agreed.

“I find it hard to accept.”

"That's it..."

With Hercules' attitude, Ares felt a little more relieved.

"Then what are your plans?"

"No... We ourselves can't really explain the current situation. Compared to those heroes, we know very little. The only one who really knows the whole story is Lord Zeus. We are just the ones caught up in the mystery. However, judging from the current situation, Hilde's offensive is very fierce, which is very disadvantageous to us Olympians. Therefore, I still plan to obey Lord Zeus's orders for the time being, check Hilde, and wait until the situation eases, and then see how things turn out."

Hercules was very cautious in his thinking.

He could see that there was something wrong with Zeus.

However, there are also some concerns and worries about Hilde's current strength.

So Hercules' attitude was to solve the current situation first. Hilde was too strong at the moment, and some of the things that happened before had almost made the conflict between Hilde and their gods irreconcilable, so he should kill Hilde's spirit first, and wait until the conflict and contradictions were stabilized before considering other issues.

Hercules's thinking on this issue was still from the perspective of God, so his consideration was also relatively cautious. Ares also agreed with this idea, but the current situation made him worried. On the other hand, Poseidon, as one of the participants in this operation, did not make any comments on this. Even if these heroes were summoned, Poseidon looked like it was none of his business.

Ares actually knew it too.

Poseidon was also very reluctant about this matter.

But... he always felt that Poseidon also had some little thoughts of his own.

It's really chaotic now... No one can guess what Zeus is thinking, Hera has her own little calculations, Poseidon is also keeping a distance, and no one knows how to plan. Artemis has simply thrown herself into Hilde's camp, guarding the justice she insists on, and Hilde is even more mysterious. What happened between her and the original book of creation is now a mystery. The only thing that can be confirmed is that next, a war that will sweep across Greece and determine the future course of Greece will break out here.

Looking at the prosperous and magnificent city of Syracuse.

Ares fell into deep thought.

----------

"Kill it!"

“Kill it—!!!”

In the hippodrome of Actium.

Tomyris is facing off against the Nemean Lion.

The huge lion had already begun to be alert. Its eyes were like copper bells, and Tomyris's figure was reflected in its pupils. Now, the girl was surrounded by a black mist, and the double-pronged fork in her hand was also flashing a terrifying cold light, as if it would pierce through her thick hide and pierce her heart in the next second. After sensing such a threat, the lion's throat made a warning grunt.

The audience cheered all around.

It also made the lion very uneasy.

"What's wrong? Are you scared now?"

It didn't understand Tomyris's provocative words.

However, the confidence from the mature hunter made the lion feel very uncomfortable, so he suddenly lowered his body and pounced towards Tomyris.

When such a huge lion pounced on the girl, everyone present couldn't help but hold their breath. But Tomyris was agile and dodged the lion's attack. The double-pronged fork in her hand pierced the lion's claws, and the claws that looked particularly strong were directly pierced by the double-pronged fork.

"Roar--!!!"

The lion roared in pain.

Tomyris had already pulled out her double-pronged fork and retreated several meters away.

Strolling in the garden, very leisurely.

The lion whose paw was stabbed did not suffer any serious damage, but the pain completely enraged it. Seeing Tomyris retreating to a certain distance after stabbing itself, the lion immediately pounced forward, and its huge claws slapped Tomyris directly. Tomyris dodged quickly, and several very deep claw marks suddenly appeared on the ground where she was standing. The audience couldn't help but gasp when they saw it. If she was hit, her body would probably be torn into pieces!

"nice……"

This was the first time Tomyris had seen such a fierce attack.

Such a beast deserves to be called the Lion of Menea!

So Tomyris raised the pitchfork in her hand and ran towards the lion.

"go to hell!"

The first chapter of the third section is a thrilling battle

Tomyris is very fast.

Holding a black double-pronged fork, she rushed towards the lion like a flash of lightning.

The lion's reaction was also very fast, but its huge body became a burden at this time. When Tomyris came to the front, the lion's claws had just been raised. It wanted to use its claws to tear the girl in front of it like slapping a fly, but now the girl still rushed in front of it, with her forks pointing directly at its most vulnerable part.

That's the eyes.

“Ouch——!!!”

The sharp fork pierced directly into the lion's eye.

Then he **pulled the lion's eyeball directly out.

The intense pain made the lion shake its head like crazy and roar loudly. Tomyris looked at the eyeball on the top of the fork as if it were her trophy. She threw the eyeball to the ground with her hand and continued to attack.

When fighting wild beasts, gladiators usually don't kill them with one blow. To ensure the best viewing effect, they will slowly torture the animals. First, they will anger the beasts by inflicting a series of skin injuries, and then continue to inflict wounds to make the injuries worse. The beasts will lose too much blood and their physical strength will be exhausted, and they will lose their ability to resist. The most exciting part of the hunting competition is how to consume the physical strength of the beasts. Of course, this process is also the most dangerous. Countless gladiators have died at the hands of mad beasts, but Tomyris obviously doesn't need to worry about this problem.

We must drag this giant lion until it is exhausted.

It is estimated that it will take quite some time.
