Greece Brings Evildoers Chapter 213

Chapter 213 Please call your job title during work

 Asterios is the real name of the minotaur Minotaur of Crete, which means "thunder light". Very few people know this name.

Normally, Lorne rarely mentioned this obscure name, preferring to call him "Minotaur" or "Calf".

 It's just…

 Lorne looked behind him, his eyes falling on that mean face.

Sisyphuston felt a chill in his body as he was being watched. He couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, folded his hands on his chest, and showed a dry smile on his face.

 “Old, man, why are you looking at me like that, like an obscene criminal…”

As he spoke, the habitual fraudster quietly backed away from the dark corner.

"boom!"

However, before he could take a few steps, a muffled sound came from behind.

Sisyphus's vision went dark, he fell straight down, and fell into a baby-like sleep.

 “Well done!”

Lorne stretched out his thumb and looked at Thetis, who was standing in the shadows, with approval.

Thetis pursed her lips lightly and retracted the arm she stretched out in a hurry, with a trace of embarrassment appearing on her pretty face.

Such a rude behavior does not seem to be in line with the behavior of a lady.

But even so, the sea fairy didn't stop at all. She threw seven or eight spells such as suppression, confusion, restraint, and drowsiness to Sisyphus lying on the ground, and then she cautiously relaxed. .

 Reliable!

Lorne nodded repeatedly at Thetis's professional performance and looked at her with even more satisfaction.

Having such a teammate by his side to check for and correct deficiencies really made him worry a lot.

After dealing with the extra pair of ears beside him, Lorne looked at the young man with horns in front of him again and used his more familiar name.

 “Minotaur, why are you here?”

 "Father...Father asked me to...help...help you..."

The Minotaur struggled to bite the words and stammered his answer.

 King Minos?

Hearing the person mentioned by the Minotaur, Lorne subconsciously touched his cheek, feeling a little surprised.

 “How did you know it was me?”

 He ​​and Thetis are both cautious types. Since entering the underworld, the various camouflage magic and defensive spells on them have basically not reached the tenth level.

Coupled with the convenience of memorizing the distorted cognition of divinity, basically no one discovered their true identities along the way, whether it was the old liar Sisyphus, Charon, the **** of crossing the Styx, Hypnos, the **** of sleep, and the three thousand sleep-talking gods.

 The Minotaur was able to see through his disguise at a glance, which made Lorn very curious.

"Smell..." the horned young man said angrily, and then raised his hand to point at the looming shadow behind Lorne, "And...that..."

 The Cretan bull?

Is it because of divine resonance? I see…

Lorne nodded thoughtfully, and then dispersed the [Bull] as the second incarnation to avoid unnecessary complications.

After dealing with some minor problems, Lorne was about to speak when he saw the Minotaur making a stern gesture of silence.

 “Hush! People…people…are up there…”

Lorne understood immediately, and quickly imitated the Minotaur's example, staying away from the wall of the underground tunnel, blocking his own breath, and squatting down with his head down.

Immediately, the Minotaur pressed his hand on the ground, and dark red lines spread to the floor tiles and walls, as if he had reconstructed an intricate underground palace deep in the dark cave.

The Minoans have always had a talent for building labyrinths, and their great mother goddess Athena was nicknamed "Lady of the Labyrinth."

 As the divine successor of Crete, the Minotaur also has the ability to build and manipulate [mazes] using the earth as its base.

Since he and his father King Minos died in battle and sank into the underworld as the bottom of the world, the Minotaur's power to lay the [labyrinth] seems to have been further strengthened.

 —Especially, in this [field of truth].

Fifteen minutes later, the noisy footsteps above gradually disappeared. The Minotaur withdrew his arm, stood up and exhaled softly.

　　…walked…gone…but…didn't go far…”

 Lorne nodded and asked.

 “What's next? How do we escape?”

 “Follow, follow me…”

The Minotaur waved his hand and took the lead in leading the way. The surrounding soil automatically opened up and solidified, forming a stable tunnel. Lorne picked up Sisyphus on the ground, called Thetis who was on guard and followed him decisively.

Half an hour later, a certain piece of turf turned slightly, the soil settled, and a dark tunnel leading to the ground was revealed, and four figures emerged from it one after another.

Lorne patted the dirt and grass clippings that fell on his body, looked back at the purple cocoon of dream light that enveloped most of the pastoral field of truth in the distance, and secretly rejoiced in his heart.

 Fortunately, the Minotaur arrived in time and took advantage of the familiar terrain to dig a tunnel leading directly outside the barrier.

 Otherwise, if Zhen, Hypnos, and the three thousand Mengxiao gods under his command fight to the death, the three of them will probably fall over. "Father...is...waiting for you..."

The Minotaur pointed to the three-way road ahead, then took the initiative to carry the unconscious Sisyphus and lead the way.

 At the end of the Garden of Truth is the workplace of the three judges of the underworld, Minos, Aeacus, and Rhadamandis.

Among them, King Minos, as the lord of Crete, was famous for his fair and strict rule of law during his lifetime. Crete under his jurisdiction also developed into a prosperous and developed country. He died earliest and had the highest status. He belonged to the court. Founder, responsible for judging thoughts.

 Then, Aeacus was the son of Zeus and the river nymph Aegina, and the father of the great heroes Peleus and Telamon. This man was famous for his justice and piety during his life. When the whole of Greece was drought due to the anger of Zeus, it was Aeakos who was requested by the people and begged Zeus for rain. After his death, he became one of the three judges of the underworld, responsible for judging actions.

As for Rhadamandis, he was another son of Zeus and Europa, the brother of Minos, and the first king of Crete. At that time, King Minos reached an agreement with Poseidon, the **** of the sea, and successfully seized power. Rhadamandis, the former king, was forced to go into exile on the island of Boeotia. In the future, he would marry Alcmene, the mother of the great hero Hercules, and become one of the three judges of the underworld after his death. He eventually reconciled with his brother Minos and was responsible for judging speeches.

They guard the palace at the end of the field of truth together, and judge the soul according to its words and deeds during its lifetime. When there was a disagreement in the judgment, Rhadamandis and Aeacus first decided independently, and then Minos cast the crucial vote to make the final decision.

Of course, even Hercules has not been born yet, and the last Rhadamandis is naturally still enjoying life on the island of Boeotia.

 In order to establish the Underworld Judgment Institution as soon as possible and restrain the authority of the gods, Lorne secretly gave Hecate a bad idea.

—That is, during the day, Radamandis continued to live happily on the island of Boeotia, dealing with mortal disputes. When he fell asleep at night, through the power of Hypnos, the **** of sleep, his soul was pulled into the field of truth and was responsible for dealing with it. Judgment case of the undead in the underworld.

　　——The day examines life and night, examines death, 365 days a year, all year round!

Hecate agreed to such an immoral act of oppression without any psychological burden.

According to Hecate, this person will come to work in the underworld sooner or later, so he should be familiar with the work process in advance.

Furthermore, the goddess of the dark moon also gave even more inappropriate precautions.

—In order to prevent Radamandis from revealing the secrets related to the underworld, you can give him some water from the Leth River after a day's work to ensure that when he wakes up, he will be confused about what happened in his dream and will not remember anything. .

—Automatically format and reuse employees without having to pay them wages. Hecate's operation is truly a typical example of capitalists hanging street lamps.

 Lorne did not know the subsequent results. He only heard from two Cretan princesses who fled to Athens.

— King Minos seemed to be smiling particularly happily during the days when he gave them dreams.

 “Arrived, arrived…”

As the sound of the Minotaur's urn was heard, Lorne's thoughts changed, and he suppressed the somewhat wicked smile on his lips. He came to the end of the central fork, crossed the hundred and ten steps, and walked into the majestic tribunal. middle.

Along the way, the guards of the underworld wearing green-gold armor and holding swords, shields, spears and bows turned a blind eye to the passing Minotaur and the three figures behind him.

 Lorne's eyes swept across the faces of the guards, with a subtle smile in his eyes.

 What a coincidence, they are all acquaintances from Crete...

A moment later, the Minotaur climbed to the top of the steps, his arms taut with muscles, and struggled to push open the closed stone door.

 “He who is under trial, come in…”

The deep and old voice echoed in the empty and deep hall, and the three people filed in.

Immediately, the dozens of meters of stone door began to vibrate with light patterns and closed on its own, cutting off all sound and breath.

 The surroundings returned to dead silence again, as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, when Lorne entered the main hall, looking at the familiar architectural styles and furnishings around him, he felt as if he were at home, and subconsciously opened his mouth to say hello.

 “Your Majesty…”

 “Ahem!”

On the seat in the hall, the old man wearing a gold crown and white robe knocked the golden staff in his hand and coughed slightly.

 Lorne immediately understood that he should call his job title when working.

He quickly changed his words and bowed in a respectful manner.

 “Your honor, thank you.”

 King Minos nodded with satisfaction, opened the case file on the table, and began the formal trial process.

"Prisoner Sisyphus is charged with blasphemy, fraud, and prison escape. The evidence is sufficient and consistent with the facts. Since he has escaped here, he will be temporarily detained by the court and awaits subsequent handover."

With a glance from the judge of the underworld, the Minotaur in the courtroom knowingly picked up Sisyphus, who was unconscious on the ground, and walked to the backyard.

 Lorne also agreed with this result.

It's just a detention, and it doesn't say there won't be any accidents.

Anyway, it was Hypnos's duty to watch Sisyphus being tortured. Even the majestic **** of sleep failed in his duty. Is it normal that the underworld court, which is only responsible for hearing the case, was negligent?

"As for you..." After hearing a case, King Minos looked at the two people in the court and handed down a "professional" and "just" judgment. "The underworld is only responsible for judging the dead, and the living are not under my jurisdiction." ”

 After saying that, King Minos took off the white judge's robe, which represented impartiality and flawlessness, and put it on the back of the chair. He stood up with the golden staff in both hands, and a warm smile appeared on his old face.

 “Long time no see, my secretary...”

 Official business has been taken care of, now it's private time.

 “Yes, it's been a long time, Your Majesty.”

Lorn also smiled and nodded, pulling Thetis forward.
