Chapter 22 Enjoying the news and seeing the intensity
Atlanteans, the descendants of Poseidon, the **** of the sea, are a group that consider themselves the descendants of the **** of the sea and have a strong worship of the sea.
In the ocean, they have a half-human, half-fish posture, with hidden gills growing behind their ears. They can breathe freely underwater. When they reach the shore, they can grow legs and switch to a human posture, so they can Perfectly adapted to both land and sea environments.
It is said that this is because they have the divine blood of Poseidon flowing in them and are favored by the ocean.
Some also say that when the gods launched a great flood to destroy the world, some of them fled to the sea to seek protection from Poseidon and were hidden by him. Later, they were given the protection of the sea god. Thranti" thrived in the land and became a staunch follower of Poseidon.
But no matter which way you say it, they are the absolute overlords in the Oceanus Sea area, spreading the faith of the ocean and practicing the will of Poseidon.
Of course, according to the fine tradition of Greek gods representing fathers, sons, filial piety, and brothers, friends, and brothers, this hidden force is actually a **** used by Poseidon to secretly expand the divine power of the sea and embezzle the divine power of the sky.
Therefore, even his teacher, the ancient demigod witch Circe, was quite afraid to talk about these Atlanteans.
In addition, as far as Lorne knows, Atlantis is actually a continent hidden in the primitive ocean. The interior is divided into ten areas, that is, ten kingdoms, each of which is handed over to the ten divine blood descendants of Poseidon. rule.
Their management style is similar to that of Greek city-states.
The ten kings of Atlantis each held absolute power in their own territories, and each adopted a different national organization. In order to maintain communication with each other, they gathered together at the Temple of Poseidon every five to six years. , discuss each other's relationship and their ruling power. When the agreement is established, they cut the throat of the cow fed in the Temple of Poseidon and write the resolution clauses on the pillars of the Temple of Poseidon with its blood to increase the sanctity of the resolution. of authority.
According to legend, with the blessing of Poseidon and the protection of the divine power of the sea, each of the ten kings of Atlantis had a strength close to that of a god.
At the same time, the military organization of Atlantis is extremely strict. The country is divided into 90,000 military areas. Each area has a commander who is responsible for dispatching 12 warriors, two horses, a chariot and all needed supplies. .
The most virtuous among them are the [Prætorian Guards] selected from all over Atlantis.
They are independent of the 90,000 military regions, directly responsible to the ten kings and the Poseidon Temple, and have the power to mobilize the military divisions under their jurisdiction.
The elites among these elites not only have strong fighting power, but also each one has a strong bloodline of God.
So, as the facade of Poseidon's command, the gold rank is only the threshold for entry, and it is not unusual to have three demigods leading the team.
But what Lorne didn't understand was that in order to avoid being easily fooled by Zeus, this group of Atlanteans who couldn't see much light mostly only moved around in the primitive ocean outside Oceanus. Why did he suddenly run to the inland sea and come all the way to hunt him down?
“You have killed so many descendants of the gods of the ocean **** system, and also killed one of Poseidon's own sons. As the master of the ocean, the sea **** needs to express his gratitude to some extent.”
A certain goddess who was responsible for "guiding newbies" had beautiful eyes and a smile as she opened her mouth to explain.
Suddenly, Lorne's face darkened and he cursed in his heart.
Fuck, you are waiting here to give me some strength!
I know these three options, none of them are without pitfalls!
First, defile Athena.
Although the word "defilement" is relatively broad, physical touching, verbal stimulation, and actual combat may all be classified as "defilement". It seems that this can be exploited, but really, Athena's incredible combat power And IQ is a decoration?
Once you select this, you can almost declare the opening of the banquet.
Second, destroy a temple of Apollo.
The key is not the temple, but the connection between the temple and the deity.
Not to mention, in this vast sea, he would find a temple of Apollo somewhere. Even if he found it, the large number of temple guards and priests inside would be enough for him to drink a pot.
If you are unlucky, you might be able to go directly to the ghosts of Apollo's arrival.
As for the talk of reconstruction and replacement, the God of Light and Prophecy is not a fool, and it is not certain whether there is a time limit for the task. I am afraid that such a cumbersome operation may not be possible in time. Finally, kill a demigod descendant of Poseidon.
This seemingly easiest task to achieve also has a big pitfall.
On the one hand, although Polyphemus is ugly, he is one of the few beloved sons of Poseidon who will miss him.
In the epic poem "The Odyssey", after Polyphemus was stabbed by the demigod hero Odysseus, he prayed to his father Poseidon to seek revenge on Odysseus.
As the main god, Poseidon did not care about his face at all, and intervened directly, arousing huge waves and strong winds, blowing Odysseus's ship away from the home route, causing him to encounter many hardships.
This is still the result of Athena's protection (Athena is very fond of heroes with wisdom. In the epic, Odysseus received Athena's favor and saved the day many times).
But Lorne directly killed the Cyclops, which was basically equivalent to facing Poseidon for output.
On the other hand, Lorne's previous sacrifices to demigods were all sea monsters and sea beasts with the blood of gods.
—More than a hundred…
Poseidon is the master of the ocean, and the ocean and the creatures in it are equivalent to his private property. Even fishermen who go to sea to catch fish must offer sacrifices to this sea god.
So, even if he is not related to these sea monsters and sea monsters, he will not tolerate this kind of behavior of outsiders ruining his property.
After all, this is about his authority as Poseidon, and it is impossible for him not to react in any way.
So, as soon as Lorne took great pains to kill the Cyclops Polyphemus, a wave of Atlantean super soldiers immediately exploded on the sea.
According to the itinerary, these Atlantis Guards may have already set off while Lorne was hunting those god-blooded sea monsters such as Lamia and Siren.
Thinking of Hecate's previous guarantee, Lorne's face darkened.
“Didn't you say that with the blessing of [dice], what I did would not be known to the twelve main gods of Olympus?”
“They seem to have been ordered to come over to investigate the cause because a large number of the God-Blooded Sea Monsters died in this area.”
Hecate pointed at the headless body of the Cyclops and the wisps of golden blood spreading on the sea. She spread her hands helplessly, with a look of helplessness on her face.
"But in front of them, you not only killed Poseidon's beloved son, but also chopped off his head. What do you think these Atlantis guards will do?"
Looking at the Atlantis Guards approaching the crime scene several kilometers away, following the golden blood stains on the sea, Lorne's eyelids jumped wildly.
Immediately, without saying a word, he turned around and rushed towards the cedar boat stored in the middle of the reef in the distance.
He didn't know what the Atlantis Praetorian Guards would do next.
But Lorne knew what he should do now.
If you continue to stay here, you will not be able to eat any of your own good fruits.
If you don't run now, what are you waiting for?
