Greece brings evildoers.

Chapter 65: Not a family, don’t enter the same family
"why?"

Hestia hesitated for a moment in front of the door, and finally stopped, turned to look behind her, and asked with a frown.

Although she is not smart, she is obedient.

Lorne handed the filled cup of fruit wine to Hestia, looked at half of the night sky outside the city of Knossos, which was almost as bright as day, and spoke unhurriedly.

"If you show up on the battlefield, Poseidon will have reason to intervene."

"What are you afraid of? With Nikki and the Aegis Shield here, he may not be Athena's opponent!"

When Hestia heard this, her brows relaxed and she spoke confidently.

Obviously, she has high expectations and confidence in her eldest niece's fighting ability.

Lorne raised his eyebrows, half smiling.

"and then?"

"what?"

Hestia subconsciously opened her mouth, but saw that Lorne's face had turned cold, and his voice became a little more mocking.

"You don't really think that the only thing Crete has to face is Poseidon, do you?"

"...?!"

The unexpected rhetorical question made Hestia confused.

"Do you still remember why Athena came down from Olympus early?" With a meaningful reminder, Lorne looked at the vast sea under the night, and said quietly, "Poseidon's favor, but It’s not that easy to repay.”

In an instant, Hestia heard the implication, her mind was shaken, and her expression changed slightly.

"You're saying that Ares and Aphrodite might also be involved!"

"if not?"

Lorne glanced angrily at the stove goddess who had not realized anything until this moment, and spoke with a cold snort.

"Not long after that mess on Mount Olympus ended, Poseidon took action against Crete. King Minos had been struggling for so many years, but Poseidon still didn't come to question him. It just happened at this time, you You don’t think it’s just a coincidence, do you?”

"..."

Hestia was speechless and could only vent her frustration to her misbehaving relatives.

"They actually hooked up together! Shameless!"

"Ares, as the god of war, has always coveted the power of victory; when Aphrodite was caught and raped, Athena once again stood up for Hephaestus... With these old grievances and interests taking the lead, plus Poseidon has just vouched for them, and the two sides hit it off immediately, which is almost expected."

Lorne paused and looked at Hestia and added lightly.

"Otherwise, according to Poseidon's character, he has endured it for so long and has no certainty of victory. How could he take the initiative to cause trouble in Crete?"

"The majority bullies the minority, right? Then we can also call Artemis and Hephaestus!"

Hestia clenched her fists and angrily defended her eldest niece.

"You are the only one who can call people? Hera, the good mother of Ares, just slept with Aphrodite, and Hermes is not a decoration? That's it, I haven't counted the size of the Oceanus Sea. The ocean gods hidden in the nooks and crannies! Poseidon does not represent one person, but a group, do you understand?"

Lorne laughed angrily and rolled his eyes at this fat and careless stove goddess.

"Why did Hephaestus lose last time despite being reasonable? Isn't it because of this?"

Then, he looked at Hestia, whose face was still a little aggrieved, and spoke quietly.

"In addition, Thetis, the sea goddess who raised Hephaestus, needs to be controlled by Poseidon, the sea god. I heard that Artemis's biological brother Apollo had a dispute with King Minos of Crete. You Do you think the two people I’m talking about are willing to wade through this troubled water for Athena and King Minos?”

"..."

Faced with this ironclad fact, Hestia asked herself a few questions and suddenly lost her temper.

Indeed, based on what she knew about her nephews, nieces, and brothers and sisters, this was not necessarily the case.

"If it's just something that can be solved by asking people to fight, then the goddess of wisdom can handle it by herself, and it's your turn to speak?"

After some thorough analysis, and after giving up Hestia's urge to show off her IQ, Lorne gave her earnest advice.

"On the contrary, only by banning the participation of the Olympian gods can the Minoans have a chance of winning in the face of this storm. This is why I have to talk so much nonsense to you..."

"So, you are specifically watching me tonight?" Hestia suddenly realized.

"You just know?" Lorne said angrily.

Realizing that she almost stabbed Lou Zi, Hestia couldn't help showing a scornful expression.

But as the roar on the coastline became more and more dull, and the sounds of flesh tearing came and went, the kind-hearted stove goddess still couldn't sit still. She gently raised her hand to poke the "guardian" on the side and asked cautiously.

"Then, what to do next?" "Wait!"

Lorne glanced over and answered concisely.

Hestia pursed her lips, looking hesitant.

"But……"

"This is the first wave of temptation. If the Minoans can't even withstand this storm, and they need the intervention of the gods themselves to survive, then even if you can help them once, you won't be able to help them the second or third time. .

If you want to survive, you must first seek help from yourself and fight with all your strength, and then it is not too late to ask the gods. "

Lorne spoke calmly, his purple eyes filled with calmness and insight far beyond ordinary people.

After all, he is considered a person who has experienced two deaths.

Should we seek after ourselves first and then the gods?
Hestia's heart was shocked, and she suddenly realized something and extinguished the unbearable feeling in her heart.

She never understood why Athena had always adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards the development of the Minoans.

Watch them quietly as they walk out of the cradle without hugging;
Watching them fall quietly without helping them.

Now, her confusion seemed to be answered from this sentence.

Children will eventually grow up, and mothers will no longer be nannies.

"After such a big thing happened, Athena didn't show up in Crete, nor did Poseidon or the Atlanteans. There are only these sea beasts hanging around in the sea that people can't catch..."

After seeing one point after another, he finally penetrated Hestia's granite-like head. Lorne murmured a few words, then looked at the holy mountain dotted with stars in the distance, and spoke quietly.

"If I guess correctly, our goddess of wisdom should be on Mount Olympus now, trying to find a way to prevent Poseidon and the Atlanteans from interfering."

"Well, Athena said that before she left."

Hestia, who knew some of the inside story, nodded slightly and looked at Lorne with an increasingly weird look.

Did he guess it again? Why is this guy like a roundworm in a person's stomach?
No wonder Athena wanted him to be her god so much. These two were twins carved out of the same mold!

Wait, twins...?
"So, are you listening?"

The long and cold question in her ear caused Hestia to interrupt her thoughts. She came back to her senses in a daze, looked at the face in front of her awkwardly, and nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Listening! Listening!"

Lorne, who was already somewhat immune to this, kept his face calm and reminded him again.

"I want to say that before the situation is clear, you should not do useless things to avoid being counterproductive."

"sure!"

Hestia nodded confidently, looking like a good baby.

After giving the last advice, Lorne yawned and got up and went upstairs.

Hestia, who was left standing, blinked blankly.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to bed and recuperate your energy first..."

Lorne, who was going upstairs, waved his hand, his voice full of laziness.

"I'm afraid someone will come to invite us to dinner tomorrow morning, and we will probably have to work hard all day."

Someone’s treating me? I do not know how?
Hestia scratched her head, looking confused.

And as the figure opened the door and walked into the bedroom, she suddenly woke up and rushed upstairs.

"Wait! Did you guess something again?!"

"boom!"

The door was closed and locked, and he pretended to refuse to answer.
