Greece Brings Evildoers Chapter 231

Chapter 231 Lorne, you have today too! (3k)

At the same time, in the dense forest in the distant mountains of Thessaly.

Two figures stood behind the lush shrubs, watching the large group of people at the foot of the hillside disappear, and then walked out of the thick shadow one after another.

“It looks like I won.” Asclepius said calmly, with a complex emotion in his eyes that could not be distinguished from disappointment or satisfaction.

"Hey, if you hadn't been sending signals just now, asking me to tell the truth that you were still alive, he would have been on his way to fight with your grandfather by now. Isn't the result obvious enough?" Lorne turned over. Rolling his eyes, he hummed and retorted, "I should win this round!"

"The result is that he is going to feast, not to take revenge." Asclepius reiterated expressionlessly, stubbornly denying the paternal love Apollo had shown before.

  Admittedly, he really wanted to get the [Golden Apple] and advance the research on the [Immortal Medicine].

 But he didn't want to put down his grudge and face and accept that person.

"Banquet? Maybe." Lorne smiled and reminded meaningfully, "What you see is not necessarily true. Don't be so hasty to draw conclusions. We still don't know whether we will win or lose..."

Asclepius couldn't help but frown slightly, and looked at the Royal City of Thessaly with a hint of worry, apparently hearing the implication of the words.

"Okay, let's stop talking here." Lorne stretched and suggested with a smile, "Since no one of us can convince anyone at the moment, how about postponing the bet for now and wait and see what happens before deciding the outcome?"

"That's fine..." Asclepius nodded and did not continue to dwell on this issue. He looked at Lorne aside and changed the topic, "So, where should we go next?"

"Let's go to Arcadia first. Lady Artemis and I have some personal matters to discuss." Lorne paused, then took out the Holy Grail and glanced at Asclepius next to him, "For safety reasons, you It's better to come in.”

 “You want to remain in spiritual form again?” Asclepius frowned, somewhat reluctantly.

"There's no way, there are so many people out there. If someone recognizes you, I can't just silence them all, right? And it's a bit too much for me to keep you in your body shape all the time. What if I encounter some trouble along the way? He's such a character, maybe he'll kill two people..." Lorne spoke eloquently and sincerely explained his interests to this fellow traveler.

Asclepius had a dark look on his face and said quietly: "One corpse and two lives seems to be used to describe pregnant women and babies."

 “Haha, that's about the same thing.” Lorne laughed, raised the Holy Grail again, and signaled to Asclepius.

In the end, Asclepius could only think of what someone said was the "overall situation", so he released his fleshly form, turned into a stream of light and penetrated into the Holy Grail, and began to sleep, reducing the impact and consumption on Lorne.

Seeing that his eldest nephew was so knowledgeable, Lorne showed approval, and then quickly threw the Holy Grail into the magic circle, giving Asclepius an absolutely quiet resting space.

—Children should not read what adults have to do next.

 A few days later, the border of Arcadia.

The rolling hills are undulating, and the lush trees are full of life. Lorne, who returned from Thessaly, walks in this holy land blessed and protected by the goddess of hunting. He steps on the thick fallen leaves in the forest and walks towards it with a comfortable expression. Deep in the forest.

However, before walking very far, he stopped and looked at the slightly bulging pile of dead leaves in front of him.

He casually broke off a branch and pushed aside the leaves covering it, revealing a metal creation composed of two jagged bronze rings.

 Animal trap? Isn't the placement too obvious?

Lorne raised his eyebrows, then avoided the trap in front of him and continued to walk forward for a certain distance.

Soon, he found three bear traps of the same style, two traps, three net bags, and five magic spells carved on the trees and the ground.

 Rough, too rough…

 Lorne glanced at these blatant traps with a cautious eye and shook his head.

 If you want to be a qualified hunter, this is not enough.

Lorne narrowed his eyes, and the branch in his hand shot out, accurately hitting the mechanism of the bear trap.

 “Click!”

As the trap was triggered, the crisp metallic sound reverberated and spread deep into the dense forest.

At the same time, in front of a clear stream, a huntress was sitting on a stone, polishing arrow clusters near the water. The feline-like ears on her head twitched slightly, and she stood up suddenly, her emerald green eyes twinkling with excitement.

 Caught it!

After a moment, the huntress stuffed the newly polished and assembled bronze arrows into the quiver on her waist, picked up the bronze bow beside her, turned into an emerald green afterimage, and ran towards the area where the trap was set.

That vigorous figure walked smoothly on the ground in the continuous and steep mountain forest, like a quick-reacting and swift lioness patrolling her hunting ground with an elegant posture.

The nearby demon pigs, goats, bison and other creatures smelled the scent, and they all lay down in their lairs and shivered.

 Fortunately, the huntress did not stop, and after a few breaths, she arrived at the area where the trap was set.

 Wait, there's no sound? Something's wrong!

The quiet dense forest ahead made the vigilant huntress instantly suspicious, and she immediately stopped at the edge of the trap area, carefully waiting for the opportunity.

At this moment, Lorne in the shade of the tree nodded secretly.

Well, although the method of setting traps is a bit rough, his alertness is pretty good, barely qualified.

 After making a brief comment, a subtle smile appeared on Lorne's face.

Then, the second assessment begins!

A clear and crisp sound of a branch breaking came from the dense forest. The huntress who was lurking in the dark perked up. She immediately drew her bow and arrow and shot towards the source of the sound.

The arrow that flew out quickly sent out a whine that penetrated the air, followed by a suppressed groan.     “rustle~~”

 The branches and leaves in the dense forest are shaking, and the sound seems to be getting farther and farther away.

Want to run? In a speed competition in the Acadia Mountain Forest, few people can beat me!

The huntress snorted coldly when she saw this, and rushed out of the shadows without thinking, chasing the injured and fleeing prey.

The green figure was flying like lightning, and quickly caught up with the target with its excellent foot power.

However, looking around, there was no one around.

Huntress carefully examined her surroundings, her eyes passing over a few inconspicuous scratch marks on the branches along the way, and then she lowered her head to look at a few stones on the dead leaves at her feet. She suddenly reacted, and her mind was instantly startled.

 No, it's a trap!

However, the female hunter did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, based on the marks of stones and branches being hit on the ground, she analyzed the rough location of the hiding place in a flash of lightning.

 —Behind, southeast, 300-400 meters area!

Under the control of wild intuition, the huntress instinctively twisted around, grabbed two bronze arrows with inscriptions on the tops from the quiver, put them on the strings, and quickly shot into the air.

 “Buzz!”

In an instant, the inscriptions on the tops of the two arrows buzzed and lit up as they rose, and a magic array shaped like a full moon was instantly constructed and unfolded above.

As the two arrows passed through the fully formed magic array with a sharp whistling, the ether factors in the surrounding air were immediately summoned to gather, forming a magic tide visible to the naked eye.

Silver-white light-like arrows emerged from the magic array, and then fell like meteors, heading towards an area 300-400 meters southeast, carrying out a covering strike.

 This is, rapid-fire silver!

 Her tutor and the goddess Artemis jointly taught her a unique skill, which is most suitable for finding the hiding place now.

 The densely falling light arrows cut off branches and penetrated tree trunks, splashing up a diffuse cloud of smoke and dust.

However, while the huntress Atalanta was watching carefully, a low voice came from the front.

 “It's too slow, your enemy will move...”

Before she finished speaking, the sudden change of wind pressure hit Atalanta directly on the back of her head.

"Snapped!"

Along with a dull violent sound, Atalanta covered her buzzing head and retreated in humiliation.

 The figure, whose whole body was wrapped in a cloud of mist, looked towards the opposite side, teasing and mocking.

“Is this what the Moon God Familiars are capable of? If I had held a sword in my hand, you would have died just now.”

“It doesn't count if you conduct a sneak attack!”

Atalanta retorted angrily, and then in anger, she drew her bow and fought again without explanation.

The arrows, which were like meteors, shot forward, making a sharp sound that ripped through the air.

With his face hidden, Lorne raised his hand and took a dead branch on the ground into his palm. He chopped and chopped it in front of him at will, and shot down the menacing arrows with ease.

 So strong!

Seeing how easily the other party caught her rain of arrows, Atalanta was frightened. She immediately grabbed three arrows from the quiver and scattered them forward with a special technique.

 A flurry of arrows? Just relying on this little trick to win against me is not enough!

Lorne sneered, turned the branch in his hand, and split three arrows in a row. Just as he was about to rush forward, the cold silver light flashing behind the arrow tail made his pupils shrink slightly.

besides?

 Not three consecutive shots, but three belts and one?

 Three arrows are connected in a straight line, only a trembling bowstring is heard, and the vision is hidden from each other.

The former fell and the latter struck, with each arrow being more powerful than the other. The second and third arrows were also cast with hallucination-like concealment magic, in order to hide the truly deadly fourth arrow.

 There is no overly powerful divine power on the arrows, it is a skill based solely on experience and wrist strength.

 It seems that Artemis has trained you well, little Tameow.

As his mind was spinning, the fourth arrow was approaching. Lorne had no time to wave a branch to block it, and immediately raised his free left hand to firmly grasp the murderous weapon that was aimed at his face.

The sharp edge was only a few inches away from his forehead, but a slight miss could make a difference a thousand miles.

With an easy victory, Lorne was about to drop the arrow, remove his disguise and say a few words. However, the moment he raised his hand, he saw the flashing burst rune on the arrow shaft, and the smile on his face suddenly froze.

 “Boom!”

The ether that gathered around him exploded instantly, forming dazzling sparks. Smoke and dust filled the air, and the strong shock wave caused the surrounding branches to crack and snap one after another.
