Chapter 141 Very smooth
Three days later, a pair of silver-haired handsome men and a beautiful woman crossed the surging waves and landed on the Attica Peninsula, with the joy of returning from a fruitful journey on their faces.
They are Athena and Lorne who disappeared after the battle on Crete.
Of course, the two of them were not idle, but went to do a [big thing].
That is, to collect debts from Poseidon.
In the last trial related to the natural disaster of beast tide, Poseidon, as the fault party, was required to compensate the Minoans according to the agreement, but he has not been able to pay off the debt so far.
In the past, there were so many people in Poseidon that Athena could only swallow her anger even if she was dissatisfied.
But now, His Majesty the Sea King has been sneaked back to Olympus by God King Zeusti for temporary custody. The continent of Atlantis has been sunk, and the entire ocean **** system has been frightened by the three hundred-armed giants who fell from the sky. They all stay behind closed doors, fearing that they will become the victims of disaster.
If we don't take this opportunity to settle old scores, we would be sorry for King Minos who died calmly and those war spirits who sacrificed generously.
So, Athena decisively took Lorne, the nominal "only seedling" of Crete, to find trouble with the Poseidon family.
Because of the fall of Atlantis, the lair that Poseidon worked so hard for naturally ceased to exist.
Finally, with the mediation of Nereus, Queen Amphitrite and Prince Triton, who were worried about being retaliated, had no choice but to bow their heads and repay the overdue debt at a high price.
Of course, Lorne is also involved.
The other compensation corresponds to the reward of the Golden Oracle, which is related to the divine power of Poseidon.
Oliha Steel, Lorne has already come into contact with this. Its hardness, sharpness, and magic conductivity are all at the top level. It is a very precious forging material and strategic material in Atlantis.
The so-called Garmanion is a special magical substance. Because it was formed through the eruption of the abyss under the sea, it contains primitive divine power and can perfectly blend different forging materials with each other and exert them. Maximum effectiveness.
—A broken fragment of the trident during the Battle of the Titans.
After all, the orichalcum alone costs ten tons...
It contains three extremely rare mineral deposits: Oriha Steel, Silver Star Sand, and Gamanion.
Silver Star Sand is said to be formed at the junction of the earth and the ocean. It is a perfect carrier of divinity, capable of self-healing and providing simple healing to the user.
The old Poseidon opened the barrier with a sad look on his face and invited them into his home.
After getting the news, Athena and Lorne rushed to Naxos Island and walked around a few times to "check and be kind".
One is a vehicle called the [Meteor Chariot], which is pulled by two divine horses "Xanthus" and "Balios" and can gallop across the sea and sky at the speed of a meteor.
Based on the philanthropic nature of His Majesty the Sea King, Lorne guessed that these two things might be the result of a romantic night with some four-legged creature.
The first two, Lorne is somewhat familiar with them and belong to the visible category, but he has never heard of the third one.
With no place to stay, Queen Amphitrite finally took Prince Triton and the remaining soldiers of Atlantis to defect to her old father, Nereus, the Old Man of the Sea.
When asking for compensation, Athena skillfully reported the names and quantities of these three things, obviously well prepared.
In addition to being the **** of sea, earthquakes and storms, Poseidon is also the **** of horses. Therefore, these two divine horses are not only human-like and fast, but also have the immortality that only gods can possess, and are used to charge into battle (block guns). most suitable
In addition, Lorne also received two other compensations under the influence of the "Halo of the Sufferer".
Whether it is to make main weapons, armor, or one-time consumables, these are enough for him to use alone for decades.
Athena gave quite generously, a full ton.
Lorne didn't know what Athena's asking price was, but judging from the green faces of Queen Amphitrite and Prince Triton in the end, this protection fee would definitely not be too cheap.
It is said that the three spikes of the trident in Poseidon's hand represent Poseidon's three divine powers respectively.
The first spike is called “Neptune's Point” and is the main attacking part of the trident. [Nipton's Tip] is very sharp. Once Poseidon stabs the target hard, it can easily penetrate the enemy's armor and defense, causing huge damage. The sharpness and material of [Neptune's Tip] make it unparalleledly powerful, allowing Poseidon to gain an advantage in battle.
The second spike is “Poseidon's Fork”. This spike is used to manipulate and master the ocean. Poseidon could easily insert this spike into the ocean and control the power of the ocean at his will. Through Poseidon's thoughts and the help of his trident, he can cause huge waves, tsunamis and storms to destroy enemy ships and cities. In addition, the King of the Sea can also use the Fork of Poseidon to create currents, control tides and harness marine life. This spike allows Poseidon to navigate the ocean with ease and control the power of the entire sea area.
The third spike, the full name is "OceanusSpear". This spike is the least common of the tridents, but has the most special abilities. [Spear of Oceanus] gives Poseidon the ability to control, manipulate and cause earthquakes and ley lines and water systems. Poseidon can drive this spike into the ground and cause powerful earthquakes by using his power. This makes Poseidon one of the most powerful gods in nature, his power can easily destroy his enemies and change the entire geography.
What Lorne got was the fragment from the second spike. Originally, this thing was given by Poseidon to Prince Triton, representing his inheritance of the ocean and control of Atlantis.
However, now the sea gods have declined and the continent of Atlantis has sunk.
Facing the two evil stars who came to collect debts, even if Triton was reluctant, he could only break his trident with tears and give the fragment buried in it to Athena and Lorne. Act as your own money to buy your life.
Of course, in line with the principle of equal access to rain and dew, Athena did not let go of Nereus who helped the evildoer.
A variety of rare materials, gems, and minerals were looted from Naxos Island.
Had it not been for Lorne to stop her, Athena might have wanted to move the entire island of Naxos to rebuild her great temple.
In the end, the father and daughter bid farewell to Lorne and Athena who had been scraping land on the island for three days with tears in their eyes.
Of course, after paying such a high price, the other side does not want nothing else.
—The lady who still retains her charm chose to obey mainly for the sake of her husband.
At present, Poseidon, the king of the sea, has been temporarily taken into custody by Zeus.
At the public trial seven days later, Zeus didn't seem to want to take it lightly.
Because of the reputation of His Majesty the God-King, Queen Amphitrite did not dare to go to Olympus alone to plead with Zeus.
Perhaps, on the other side's whim, this can really lead to a "Madam, you don't want to..." plot.
Hence, Queen Amphitrite deliberately stayed on Naxos.
She was probably waiting for the master of suffering to come to her door, and communicated and negotiated with Athena through the mediation of her father Nereus.
According to the meaning between the lines, the sea queen hoped that at the theocratic meeting, Athena could use this generous compensation to excuse her husband Poseidon, so as not to add insult to injury and cause harm to both parties.
After all, His Majesty the Sea King can still withstand the pressure of Olympus while he is alive, and it will be of no benefit to anyone if he is defeated.
Obviously, the sea queen probably couldn't come up with this rhetoric. The master who guided her behind the scenes was probably the sea nymph Thetis, who was known for her wisdom.
As for the settlement of Hai Hou's voluntary release, Athena nodded vaguely after receiving enough benefits.
After all, it will be up to that uncle to continue to fight against and step on mines in the future.
Without this wind-blocking wall, her small movements would increase the risk of exposure.
So, even if the queen does not mention it, Athena will rationally hold the uncle's hand when necessary.
Driving tigers to devour wolves, driving wolves away from tigers, these behind-the-scenes calculations and tactics are not only used by His Majesty the God-King.
After reaching a certain consensus tacitly, the tense atmosphere between the two parties became more harmonious.
Lorne and Athena enjoyed the highest courtesy. With just a glance, the hospitable ocean people would sneak over to them.
Had it not been for the short time before the Theocratic Council was held, there were other things to do before going to Olympus. The two of them wished they could stay a few more days and continue to experience the enthusiasm and hospitality of the ocean people.
"It's a pity that Thetis is not here. Originally, I wanted to try to repay the father's debt with the daughter and let her be my maid for a few days."
Athena on the side looked back at the vast Ocean of Oceanus behind her, muttering regretfully.
Lorne looked calm on the surface, but secretly cursed in his heart.
If I remember correctly, you are best friends, right?
Didn't I offend you once when I was standing in line? As for carrying a grudge all day long?
But speaking of it, he also wanted to get to know the legendary ocean nymph who was both beautiful and wise.
Although it has not been officially seen yet, at least one thing is certain.
—Well, very moist!
