Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator.

Chapter 172 Forgetting (two in one)

In any case, Zeus had promised to be the keeper of the oath. If possible, he still did not want Hades to have a grudge against Styx, which would make him a little embarrassed.

After all, from the bottom of his heart, the God King did not want to have any quarrel with the Lord of Oaths because of Hades.

As for Ming Yue, that's easy to say. Zeus could have used the excuse of "selling out to the ancient God of Creation" to sit back and wait for Pluto and his neighbors to become enemies, without compromising his authority at all.

It just so happens that Poseidon has his own adoptive father as his opponent in the sea. It would be great if there could be someone to check and balance Hades in the underworld.

"boom--"

While thinking, Mount Olympus experienced its third shock, and Zeus knew that he should do something. So under the gaze of the gods, the God King continued:

"In the past, I have made a promise: everything in the underworld belongs to Hades, just like everything on the ocean belongs to Poseidon. Even as the God King, I will not interfere in their respective affairs, so Hades has the right to Underground doing whatever he wanted.”

"However, his behavior disturbed the peace of the gods after all, so I think we need someone to check it out and understand the cause and effect."

Zeus looked around, but the gods were a little silent when they heard the words. They didn't want to get involved in this matter.

Just by listening to the movement, you can tell that this is definitely a battle between two powerful gods. Hades himself has 18 or 9 levels of divine power. With the authority to mobilize half of the underworld, he will only become stronger, and the gods who fight him will probably not be less generous.

This directly eliminated almost all the gods present, so since it was impossible for the God King to go there in person, they couldn't help but turn their attention to the Poseidon Emperor and the patron goddess Hestia who came to the banquet.

Facing the gazes of the gods, Poseidon turned a blind eye. He would not run errands for Zeus. Only Hestia stood up.

Zeus's future descendants have not yet been born, and the flames and the guardian goddess are the only powerful combat forces he can command. Just like every time before, Hestia spoke gently.

"Just let me go and I will ask about the situation."

"Then it's hard work for you."

Nodding, Zeus also knew that this was the best outcome. Then, with the gods watching, Hestia turned into a red light and went straight to the ground.

Near Olympus, there is a gap that leads directly to the Underworld. As long as you pass through it, you can directly reach the gate of the Underworld.

·······

slam-la-

At the edge of the underworld, where the powers of the two ancient gods meet, the waters of Acheron, the river of pain, surge.

Charon, the ferryman of the River Styx, was sitting on the wooden boat that was born with him, looking at the dazzling purple moon in the distance and the gray light that poured out from the earth but kept sinking, and felt a little emotional in his heart.

This is the second time he has seen this kind of power that shakes a world. The last time was at the turn of the era, when he saw the darkness spreading from the lightless realm.

But last time, maybe the level of power was too high, and Charon simply couldn't understand where the two sides were and how they collided, but this time it was different.

Ming Yue's power was released unscrupulously in the underworld for the first time, causing the entire underworld to briefly expand. On the desolate land, rioting magic swept in all directions, and the water of the River of Fire rolled out of the track. If the River of Styx and the River of Pain were not guarded by gods, there would probably be no difference.

But vaguely, with the collision of the powers of the two underworld gods, Charon seemed to notice something strange at the end of his sight.

This feeling made the Styx Ferryman feel a bit familiar, but he couldn't remember where it was familiar.

"This is the underworld. Although it is remote enough, it never lacks powerful gods."

Putting the oar into the river, the turbulent Acheron managed to calm down a little. Charon suppressed the restless Styx and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

The gods on the earth at least have the vast starry sky and sea, which can separate the gods of different camps with distance, but the underworld is different.

Like it or not, Styx is at the gate of the underworld, and everyone who comes and goes must pass through her. And the "sky" underground is far not as high as the ground, and the dark moon and the gray earth are almost far away from each other.

"Fortunately, my neighbors have never had any sense of existence, otherwise it would be really difficult."

Charon glanced at the endless winding Styx not far away. Conceptually, this was 'circling the underworld seven times'. In fact, it stretched across the underworld while going deep into the River of Oaths in Tartarus. Charon was very lucky. .

Fortunately, the eldest daughter of the Ocean God has always ignored worldly affairs, otherwise she would also be qualified to compete for dominance in the underworld. If the authority of Hades is divided into ten, then Hades occupies two floors, Hades Earth and Hades Moon occupy three floors each, and Styx occupies the remaining two floors.

If Styx, as the first and most powerful Styx, demands to rule all the rivers in the underworld, then Charon really doesn't know whether he should choose her or Hades.

Although that Pluto seems to be stronger

brush--

While he was meditating, a sudden fluctuation in the portal of Hades caught Charon's attention. This was a sign that someone had entered Hades. Under his gaze, a red light flashed and then stopped on the bank of the River of Pain.

The light gradually dissipated, and the gentle-tempered patron goddess appeared. She was suspended by the river, looking at the core of the underworld where gray and purple collided in the distance, and then noticed the old man on the River of Pain.

Now the situation is very clear. The person who is fighting against Hades is the rumored goddess of the moon, an ancient god who lives in the spiritual world. But before going there, the goddess decided to understand the situation here first.

"Excuse me, are you the river god here?"

Her tone was calm. Looking at the old-looking ferryman in front of her, Hestia was not arrogant because of the difference in strength. On the contrary, she was very polite.

This was her first time coming to Acheron, and it was also her first time seeing the Stygian Crosser. The opponent's strength is not strong, but this Styx River seems to be connected with the power of the underworld, giving birth to a special power.

This power itself is not strong, but it shares part of the essence of the underworld. It can make all things sink and make those who come into contact with it lose their obsession in pain. Neither gods nor mortal beings can escape this force, only on the ferryman's wooden boat.

Of course, this power will definitely not affect her personally. After all, the underworld is not the spiritual world. Even if the River of Pain shares part of the essence of the underworld, it itself does not have the symbol to touch greatness.

"As you can see, Your Highness Hestia, I am Charon, the ferryman of the River of Pain. I now serve His Majesty Hades and guard the portal between the underground and the earth for him."

Charon stood up from the wooden boat and bowed.

"I wonder what your orders are?"

"The battle in the underworld has affected the earth. I came here to explore the reason on the order of the God King."

"How much do you know about this dispute?"

She originally planned to rush directly to the center of Hades, but Hestia felt that just before and after she stepped through the gate of Hades, the atmosphere of both warring parties suddenly calmed down.

At the same time, a strange feeling floated in the underworld.

"I only know that His Majesty Pluto has wanted to meet with the goddess of the moon and the goddess of oaths for a long time, but there has been no result."

"As for what happened today, I know nothing, Your Highness."

Shaking his head, Charon's old face showed no sign of his harsh treatment of mortal things, only respect and obedience.

Because of the influence of his priesthood, he is actually very keen on causing pain to others. But if he was facing the eldest sister of the God King, he still knew what to do.

"Is that so? Then I'll go over and see for myself. Thank you very much."

Nodding slightly, the patron goddess felt that maybe her brother wanted to completely unify the power of the underworld, and ended up having conflicts with his neighbors.

No longer waiting, Hestia prepared to leave. But the next moment, the strange aura before suddenly became stronger. The entire underworld seemed to be rejoicing, and at a certain moment, even she was affected by the unknown power.

The goddess stood there blankly. At this moment, she seemed to have forgotten how she appeared here, the purpose of her trip to the underworld, and even almost forgotten how to control her power.

As a result, the divine power produced otherwise normal fluctuations. Fortunately, it was only for a moment, and Hestia quickly got rid of this effect, but it still made her instantly alert.

"That is--"

With a serious look on his face, this special power was enough to scare Hestia. Its own strength is very limited, but like the Arkon River in front of us, it seems to share the essence of a certain existence.

Therefore, it also possesses a certain extremely high status that makes it difficult for goddesses to exempt themselves from it. "Your Highness, it seems that a new Styx is being born."

Perhaps because he is also a member of the Styx, Charon was not more seriously affected than the powerful goddess. He remembered why he felt familiar with this strange aura, because there was a similar situation when he was born.

Just different again. As one of the rivers of Styx, the ferryman clearly felt that this time the new river of Styx, like Styx, did not seem to be only affected by the underworld.

At the other end of it, a vast and majestic world, just like Tartarus, is connected to Hades through the power of the New River Styx.

······

"This is?"

Compared to the two gods on the edge of the underworld, Lyanna and Hades were also a little surprised in the sky above the Field of Truth at this moment.

Pluto's figure was a little embarrassed, but he didn't have any serious injuries. Although she had the upper hand before, Lyanna quickly discovered after a brief confrontation that she seemed unable to do anything to the opponent at the moment.

This is not because the power of the spirit world is not strong enough, and can't even compete with half of the power of Hades, but because she has reached a 'bottleneck'. Although there is still a lot of power that can be borrowed, Lyanna can no longer bear it.

The addition of the power of the interface allowed Lyanna, who currently only had less than eighteen levels of divine power, to stand at the pinnacle of powerful divine power, and the next step would be greatness. But the goddess of the moon is not the master of the world after all. She cannot touch the great realm before her own divine power reaches its extreme. That is a power that she cannot bear for the time being.

In this case, Lyanna and Hades were like two students who already had excellent grades and got extra points. Although one has five hundred points and the other has only fifty points, facing a paper with a perfect score of one hundred, this is enough for two 'good students' to get full marks.

But fortunately, she still has a magical weapon. If in the field of divine power, Hades and Lyanna, who are blessed by half the laws of the underworld, are equal, but in the field of artifacts, [Pluto's Invisibility Helmet] is not worth mentioning at all.

But as the fight continued, something unexpected happened. When the power of the spiritual world collided with the authority of Hades through Lyanna, some strange changes gradually occurred. In the fourth level of the spiritual world, the artifact used to wash away the memories of living beings suddenly spontaneously collapsed and turned into a special spring.

Originally, it only inherited [memory], but now, it has gained additional power.

"New Styx!"

His face was heavy. As the legitimate master of the underworld, Hades instantly understood what happened.

The birth of the River Styx requires an inducement. When the power of the World Oath was decentralized, Styx was born; Acheron was born because the underworld had a master, and the River of Fire was drawn by him himself. The scene in front of him was obviously the scene in the spiritual world. Some kind of power resonated with Hades, and the fourth River of Styx was about to emerge.

This was originally a good thing. Just like in the first two eras, the birth of the natural god also meant the perfection of the laws of the world. The increase in the number of Styx rivers could also increase the power of the underworld. But at this moment, Hades was not happy at all. stand up.

Because Hades felt that, unlike the River of Fire and the River of Pain, this new River of Styx, like Styx, did not seem to be governed by the laws of the underworld.

"His Majesty."

When the signs of the birth of Styx appeared, the fight between the two main gods also stopped. Lyanna watched the changes taking place with some confusion, while Hades was thinking about how to end this inexplicable battle.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the water fairy who was watching in fear finally suppressed her fear and came to Pluto's side.

"Your Majesty, your shrine has just—"

"I can see that this is not the place you should be."

The corners of his eyes twitched, and his tone was a little stiff. It was just a palace, Hades didn't care, but as a place for him to live, it represented his face.

But the problem is that anyone with a discerning eye can see that he has no way to deal with the goddess of the moon now, and he can't even counterattack on an equal footing - the other party's residence is probably in the spiritual world. And now Mingta said it again, which made Pluto really impatient.

This nymph may not have second thoughts about him, but she is really not a smart guy.

"call--"

"That's it for now, Your Highness Lyanna, I have seen your power, but you should also understand that in the underworld, I have some power."

Slowly speaking, Hades looked at the beautiful goddess in front of him. Judging from the appearance, the other party and the well-known Hera did not show any concessions, but their styles were different.

"I won't mention what happened before in the future. My temple that was destroyed by you should be regarded as an apology to you. This meaningless battle should not continue."

Her expression remained unchanged, and Lyanna had to admit that this false god from the outside world did have some strength. Maybe it can be suppressed with the help of the power of the artifact, but in the underworld, it is difficult for Hades to be truly suppressed.

Among the first eighteen angels in the spirit world, their attitudes towards outside creatures can be roughly divided into three categories. The Ignorance sect believes that their existence or not has nothing to do with them; the Destruction sect believes that those who do not believe in the Creator should be destroyed; and there are also the Redemption sect, who believe that the creatures outside are just astray and need to be made aware of the greatness of the Lord. enlightenment.

Lyanna is actually somewhere between the latter two. She feels that mortals can be civilized, but it is difficult for these false gods to do so. But she is not as extreme as the second type, so she is not ready to take action when she sees her.

"You call this the 'Field of Truth'?"

The voice was cold, and an idea vaguely came to Lyanna's mind as she looked at the place that called itself 'Truth'.

If the Lord's majesty can be promoted, then a god who is probably unkillable doesn't seem to be that important.

"Yes, this is how I got the name for the core of Hades. Is there anything wrong with it?"

His expression became alert. After the previous incident, Hades had vaguely realized that perhaps this goddess born in the spiritual world may not be the same as many of the concepts of the gods in the world.

There was no reply. Lyanna smiled as she looked at the gray plain. Pluto was a little surprised for a moment. It was the first time he saw the smile of the goddess Pluto, but the next moment, he realized something was wrong.

In front of him, Lyanna tapped her finger lightly, and an illusory river flowed out of the void.

Perhaps it was a fateful match. As soon as it appeared in this world, it was immediately accepted by the underworld. The aura that makes all things forget the past radiates out. One end of it originates from the side of the [Well of Reincarnation], and the other end extends infinitely, rushing towards the gray earth.

"what are you up to?"

Divine power emerged, and Hades was about to stop it immediately, but he once again found helplessly that the authority of the underworld did not exclude the other party. Under the protection of the power of the silver mirror space, the illusory river just crossed the former site of the Pluto Palace on the Field of Truth in front of him from the middle, dividing the core of the underworld into two.

Even this long river is still extending. It cuts off some of the tributaries of the Fire River and continues to explore the portal of the underworld. Finally, it stopped behind the river of pain.

Only then did Pluto notice that a familiar figure seemed to be there.

"From now on, this will be Erinye's 'River of Forgotten', and she can feel more relaxed because of it."

"The souls of mortal things will flow into the spiritual world from here, and then be washed away from the past along the way, and finally reincarnate. And where the river flows, all mortal things can witness all this, so as to understand the greatness of the spiritual world. .”

I am very satisfied with my arrangement. The river originating from the fourth spiritual world is located in the middle of the seventh spiritual world and should naturally pass through the axis of the underworld.

Turning to look at Hades, Lyanna felt much better. She thought of Cronus, who had visited Ryan several times. Since everything the Lord said was correct, the goddess of the moon should naturally learn from it.

'This is probably what the Lord wanted me to learn by letting me deal with this matter alone. '

I felt a little happy, and my tone softened a lot. Lyanna looked at Pluto in front of her and said in a calm voice:

"Angels in the spiritual world are only loyal to the Lord who created everything. This is the first and last time I tell you."

"In addition, guard the banks of the River of Oblivion and don't let souls be stolen by other beings. Otherwise, if the spirit world receives fewer souls, the power in the light of the dark moon will decrease."

"Are you still willing to maintain our previous agreement?"

Regardless of his sister who was far away at the portal of Hades, Hades was a little surprised by Lyanna's words.

He thought that with the conflict between them, the previous agreement between the two parties was no longer relevant.

"I hate you just because of my personal likes and dislikes. But it has nothing to do with the agreement you just made."

Lyanna has been most influenced by two people since her birth, one is Ryan and the other is Themis, and most of her knowledge of the outside world comes from them. The latter goes without saying, but the former, apart from playing some word games when he was still weak, has always practiced what he preaches.

Therefore, as Lyanna said, as long as Hades did not violate his promise first, she would not mind using the power of authority to give the underworld more light belonging to the underworld.
