Chapter 75 Zeus and Hera's Reaction
Mount Olympus.

The story of Hephaestus, the god of fire, accidentally letting go of Selene, the moon god, was recounted exactly by Styx, the goddess of hatred, and Biya, the goddess of violence.

This set off a storm of discussion in certain circles.

Facing Vulcan, who still maintains a tendency to be neutral, some people let go of their hearts, while some people's hearts are still hanging in the sky.

Zeus also had a headache for this.He complained to Hera on the side: "Your eldest son and we are not of the same mind..."

Hera glanced at him: "Metis and we are not of the same mind."

Zeus felt his head hurt even more.The battle between Hera and Metis has already begun, but it is not difficult to see from the end of Metis that he is inclined to Hera.

Metis is still imprisoned in his mind.

He knew he was wrong, and he didn't argue with Hera, but talked about the business.

"The person who was hiding in the dark that day was still not found, nor did they leave any traces for tracking."

"But in fact, there are not many people who are capable of playing hide-and-seek with us. Who do you think it will be?"

Hera was a little surprised: "Didn't your thunder hurt him? You didn't even recognize him?"

"No." Zeus shook his head. "He didn't use his roots at all. In that ray of light, there were also chaotic forces that forcibly gathered together, such as jealousy, war, anger, water, everything."

Hera frowned when she heard the words, and then she seemed to think of something, and looked at the "Lightning" standing beside Zeus's throne, which represented the authority of his god-king.

"Lightning" is not alone now.Beside it is the trophy belonging to Hera - two other "spears" from the same source as it.

The names of these two spears are "Thunder" and "Thunderbolt". Together with "Lightning", they are all from the hands of the three Cyclops brothers, descendants of the god Uranus.

So Hera can take it for granted that the god Uranus is not clean.

She also said the same: "Is it possible that Uranus did it? After all, both "Thunder" and "Thunderbolt" came from his heirs."

Zeus blushed when he heard this.He yelled at Hera: "It should... have nothing to do with Uranus..."

""Thunder", "Lightning", and "Thunderbolt" belonged to me at the beginning, but later...you know, I had nothing during that time, and I relied heavily on the wisdom of Metis..."

Hera had nothing to say.She didn't point out that she was already saving face for Zeus, but it was impossible, absolutely impossible for her to pretend nothing happened.

For a moment, the atmosphere seemed to be subtly awkward...

Fortunately, over the long years, Zeus has gotten used to it, and he found himself a step down.

"Actually, I doubt the Knicks," he said.

Hera glanced at him, and answered him as she wished: "Why?"

Zeus: "Do you remember that Hephaestus once fought the Knicks?"

"Although none of us saw it with our own eyes, the fire that fell from the sky that day has confirmed his identity."

"And... the new gods bred by Nix have been uneasy, and they have been secretly competing for faith. This has something to do with her to some extent."

"So I hope it's her, she'll be a formidable opponent."

Hera thought for a moment, and soon agreed with Zeus' statement, and she replied: "Anyway, I can't find anyone, so let's assume it is her."

"It's just that it's difficult for us to effectively restrict her. The sky god Uranus even has the earth goddess Gaia as an enemy, what should she do?"

"Could it be... going to talk to Tartarus, the god of the abyss?"

Zeus shook his head, "No need."

"The Knicks have almost no enemies, so we may not be able to provoke Tartarus."

"And Hephaestus, judging by your son's attitude this time, he may not be able to attack the Knicks."

"But Nix is ​​difficult to deal with, but it doesn't mean that the offspring she conceived are also the same."

"I don't believe that none of the new gods granted authority by Nix will be moved. At least, I don't believe that Uranus can bear it."

"In this endless secret war, Uranus, he has plundered more than us, and there is no way for him to turn back."

Hera nodded, and she suddenly said, "There is one more thing."

"Nix, when did she join us? Why is she also plundering? Also, who is she plundering? Why haven't we heard any news?"

Zeus: "I'm also wondering about this. The authority she gave to those new gods has nothing to do with the root of the night, which means that she is also a member of the hidden war, but how did she do it so silently?"

"I have asked Athena to investigate, but have not found any clues."

Hera couldn't help showing a look of fear when she heard the words: "After all, she is also an antique."

"Let's keep some of those new gods for her, otherwise, if she dies, she may not be willing to stop fighting for her faith."

Zeus nodded: "I have a measure."

"But you still need to discuss with Demeter about Artemis. I have some conflicts with her daughter Persephone, and it is inconvenient to see her now."

Hera asked him, "Are you going to release Selene?"

Zeus pondered for a moment, and he explained: "Selene has already gone to the underworld, counting the days, Hades should recover a little bit."

"And all these years, when Persephone became the queen of the dead, Selene has been deliberately getting close to her."

"I didn't react at that time..."

"But the bottom line is still necessary. You ask Demeter to tell Persephone that Selene can stay in the underworld, and the authority of the moon must stay on Mount Olympus!"

"I see." Hera stood up from the golden throne and walked in the huge space in the hall.

She suddenly turned her head and asked Zeus a question: "My husband, do you think that the faith that we started and promoted will be the next hidden war."

"We withdraw from the hidden war and choose to embrace faith. Could it be that we have stepped into another quagmire from one quagmire?"

Zeus bowed his head when he heard the words, his expression was stern, and his eyes looked down at the earth under his feet and the humans on the earth through the clouds.

"It will be so," he replied. "In fact, we started another hidden war with our own hands, but its name is the war of faith."

"The only essential difference between it and Hidden Wars is one point."

"The war of faith is led by us, just like Uranus led the hidden war."

Hera looked at him: "This is a brand new path, it may not be better than the secret of Uranus."

Zeus: "But it can't be worse, can it?"

"You also know that the current upper limit of the hidden path is Uranus, but what about him, he hasn't even been able to restore his former glory."

As he spoke, he raised his head abruptly, and looked at Hera with piercing eyes: "Instead of not being able to see the future on the hidden road, it's better to work hard on the road of faith."

"I have a hunch that after Uranus and Hades, I will be another one who will step into greatness later!"
