Greece Brings Evildoers Chapter 319

Chapter 319 Madam, sleep well and don't look back (4.6k)

Early the next morning, the twin brothers, who had successfully eradicated the beast's nest in the mountains, led their team into the city in triumph.

After successfully handling a series of handovers, the two carried snacks bought from the street and walked home talking and laughing.

However, before entering the door, her sister Helen rushed out of the door, and she rushed into the arms of her two brothers, crying with grievances in her throat.

"elder brother…"

"What's wrong with this?"

Looking at their sister's swollen eyes, the two of them looked shocked and asked quickly.

Helen pointed at the courtyard shrouded in light patterns behind her, her face filled with sadness and anger as she hesitated to speak several times.

"they…"

The two brothers couldn't hold back and subconsciously leaned forward. They immediately felt a strange vibration on the ground and the excitement of some kind of magical blend coming from the courtyard.

The familiar melody made the two brothers, who had experienced human affairs, couldn't help but show teasing expressions.

Okay, we actually got together while we were out.

However, let's do it. Isn't your movement too big?

Looking at the thickly stacked magic barrier in front of them, the two brothers were speechless. They looked pitifully at their sister who seemed to have been forced to stay up all night to watch. They couldn't help but secretly curse the three misbehaving people in the yard.

Look, it scares my kids...

"It's small things, don't worry about them!"

"You haven't eaten yet? We'll take you out for a nice meal."

The two brothers exchanged words with each other, and then they pulled their aggrieved sister towards the lively market, preparing to fill her wounded heart with food.

Helen, who was coaxed and dragged away, looked at her two brothers who had no idea what the crux of the matter was, and felt extremely sad and angry in her heart.

Eat, eat, eat, what to eat? My home is almost gone!

The three opportunities that were originally reserved for me were used twice in advance by the thieves inside.

And what's even more hateful is that three people were doing this kind of thing, and they actually left me alone, and made such a big noise that I watched as a spectator all night!

Too much, too much!

Fortunately, the heartfelt love from her two brothers helped Helen somewhat dilute the resentment in her heart.

"Come on, are you hungry? Eat more."

"The steamed mutton and roasted pigeon are delicious, try them both."

Under the comfort of her brothers, Helen's grief and anger turned into appetite. She gritted her teeth and bit into the mutton chops and pigeon meat on the plate viciously.

She hasn't had a bite of hot rice since yesterday morning.

On the contrary, it was the two people in the courtyard who ate for her...in every sense of the word...

Just as Helen was getting better and began to enjoy the original taste of food, her eldest brother Castor, who had finished cooking before her, threw down the bones, clapped his hands and reminded her.

"Eat quickly, we have to go to the Moon Temple and the Royal Palace after eating."

"what?"

"According to this news, they don't know how long they will have to deal with it. If they don't show up for such a long time, of course I will find a reason for them to cover it up."

Pollux on the side answered casually, turned around and smiled at his sympathetic brother, with the same playful look in his eyes. It felt like he was lying to his parents and elders to protect his former friend.

Pa da ~

The large mutton chop Helen was chewing fell on the plate, and her miserable little face turned black into the bottom of the pot.

Give them opportunities, give them residence, and even give them the people they like.

Finally, when they are happy, I have to run errands to cover them up?

The girl looked down at the half-eaten lamb chops on the plate and pursed her lips.

She felt that her teeth seemed to be itchy again...

The herds deep in the Arcadia Mountains seem to be overrun again, but Queen Atalanta has already gone with her friends to hunt and conquer the mountains.

Both the Moon Temple and the Royal Palace were accustomed to the news brought by the twin brothers.

Their queen has always liked to be a solitary person. She has gone deep into the mountains where beasts are infested several times and destroyed the established beast nests. It is not surprising that she is doing something similar now.

And even without Atalanta, the literal leader, the various forces in Arcadia that have been tempered by beast disasters many times have been able to operate on their own and maintain basic order in the city.

Three or five days passed like this, and the royal city was as stable as ever, with no vicious crimes even occurring.

The only thing that was a little abnormal was the strange vibrations coming from the underground houses in the southeastern part of the city from time to time.

Seven days later, the twin brothers who came to report to Queen Chrymene as usual were unable to bear it anymore.

The two of them looked at the beautiful middle-aged woman with a soft and elegant face in the garden, who was chatting happily with Queen Chrymene. They felt like thorns on their backs for no reason, and they couldn't help but wailed in their hearts.

Brother Lao, it's been seven days, haven't you had enough trouble?

Please, come out quickly! Someone is looking for it! This seems to be a god!

Seeing that the conversation between the Queen and the beautiful middle-aged woman was over, and the two brothers who had seen some clues outside the door were hesitating whether to bite the bullet, a heavenly voice came from behind.

"Does she want to see me?"

When the twin brothers heard this, they looked at Lorne who appeared behind them in surprise and nodded hurriedly.

"Brother, you are ready to go out. Did you know that she has been waiting for you in the palace for most of the day! If you and the two of them don't show up, we will be ready to rush into the yard and drag you out of the gentle land."

"Thanks for your hard work…"

Lorne knew he was in the wrong, so he patted the twin brothers on the shoulders and expressed his thanks with a dry smile.

"If you have anything to do, go ahead and leave it to me."

The twin brothers nodded, and then looked at Lorne's empty back, looking surprised.

"By the way, why is it just you and the two of them?"

"Uh, I didn't get up..."

"Then let Helen wake them up? There seems to be a **** on the other side, which is not easy to deal with."

"Well, they are either sleeping or fainting. They won't be able to wake up for a while..."

Lorne spoke quietly, looking a little embarrassed.

After hearing this, the twin brothers were silent for a while, then they all gave a thumbs up, and subconsciously looked between someone's legs, muttering to themselves.

Feeling dizzy? Such a beast?

Sensing the strange looks in the eyes of the two brothers, Lorne immediately understood that they were thinking wrongly, but it was difficult to speak directly.

After all, you can't say that this is the sequelae of the power of love exerting too much force, you can't do it, right?

After pinching his nose and accepting the blame, Lorne watched the two brothers walk out of sight, then calmed down slightly, got up and walked into the garden to start the formal meeting.

At this time, the visiting beautiful middle-aged woman had finished her chat and was sitting in the pavilion with Queen Chrymene, tasting sweet and delicious honey wine and exquisite snacks.

Lorne walked through the path covered with branches and vines, came to the tea table, and got straight to the point.

"Madam, I heard that you want to see me?"

The beautiful middle-aged woman smiled and nodded, looked up and down at Lorne before her, and spoke softly.

"Let's talk, little Dionysus..."

Lorne's eyelids jumped when he heard this, and before the other party finished speaking, he activated his power and waved his hand to completely catalyze the wine in the glass.

Queen Chrymene's body swayed, she lay drunkenly on the table, and fell into a deep sleep.

After solving the hidden dangers, Lorne set up dozens of concealment barriers around him, then frowned and looked at the mysterious lady in front of him who revealed his identity. "You are?"

"Don't be so nervous, just call me Demeter."

The beautiful woman smiled and spoke, with a trace of peace and calm in her brows.

"It turns out it's you." Lorne breathed a sigh of relief.

Demeter, the goddess in charge of agriculture, grains and harvests among the twelve main gods of Olympus, is also the biological mother of her adoptive mother, Persephone, and is theoretically one of her own.

However, to be cautious, Lorne looked at the [Mark of the Dead] on his hand and asked in a deep voice: "Did Mother tell you that I am here?"

After all, the power to drive souls on a large scale belongs to Pluto and his wife. If he uses this power, he will inevitably be sensed by them.

"Not entirely..." Demeter motioned for Lorne to sit down and replied softly, "Typhon has returned, half of the Arcadia royal city has been transformed into the underworld, and the life and death of tens of thousands of people are out of balance. You have made such a big noise, It's hard to hide something from someone who is interested.”

Lorne nodded, secretly alert in his heart.

Sure enough, if you use the power beyond the gods too much, you will inevitably be targeted by others, so you should be more cautious in future actions.

After giving himself a heads up, Lorne asked carefully: "So, your reason for Arcadia this time is..."

"How about taking a guess?" Demeter picked up the tea cup and took a sip, looking at the figure in front of her with a smile, "Persephone always praises you for being smart."

Hearing the meaning of the competition, Lorne pondered for a moment, and a relaxed smile gradually appeared on his face.

"Is it the Eleusinian Mystery Cult? Your followers have caused so much trouble, and someone must come forward to deal with the aftermath."

When Demeter heard this, she put down her tea cup and smiled bitterly: "I didn't let them slaughter the city and destroy the country for the sake of so-called [immortality]."

Obviously, Lorne's guess was spot on.

Now that humans and gods are separated, the growth of the gods' strength in the next three hundred years is closely related to human faith.

Although Demeter is not the founder of the Eleusinian Mystery in the strict sense, nor does she directly support the Eleusinian Mystery, but after a long period of development, this **** of agriculture has formed a relationship with the Eleusinian Mystery. An inseparable whole.

Every word, deed, and action of the believers will more or less affect human society's views and beliefs about Demeter.

This time's "Great Sacrifice of Arcadia" is a big or small problem.

If the Eleusinians involved in it are promoted as a negative example, the Eleusinian Mystery Cult may become a crooked cult that everyone is shouting about. If it is serious, even Demeter, the main **** of the Esoteric Cult, may suffer a disastrous reputation. .

Of course, even if you don't care about Demeter's face, you still have to take care of the feelings of your adoptive mother Persephone. Even if she is not the mother and daughter of the God of Agriculture, she is still one of the main gods served by the Eleusinian Mystery.

In addition, the Eleusinian Mystery Cult was not deeply involved in the case, so Lorne and Atalanta did not intend to go online.

In fact, that's exactly what they did.

After killing the incarnation of Typhon and suspending the great sacrifice in the city, Atalanta has been working hard to mediate the forces of various sects, and in the name of substituting merits for wrongs, she and the unsullied believers of several sects have survived together. Arcadia's most dangerous time.

However, just because some things are not investigated does not mean they did not happen.

Lorne looked at Demeter, who had officially come forward on behalf of the Eleusinian Mystery Cult, and sighed with a heavy tone.

"Although I understand your difficulties and believe in your character, the nature of this incident is too bad and has brought serious disaster to the Acadian people, both as a pastor on earth and as Her Majesty the Queen's Teacher, I have to give them an explanation.”

"I know, it's because of my lax discipline..."

The honest God of Agriculture nodded in recognition, then opened the magic array and took out the [Horn of Fertility].

"So, I brought this. It can purify the land polluted by the dead air and allow the Acadians to have a good harvest for at least ten years. I hope this can make up for the mistakes committed by my followers."

At this time, this artifact has been re-infused with divinity, a rich breath of life is filling the air, and the plants in the garden are growing luxuriantly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Change soil quality? Ten years of good harvest? What a good thing!

Lorne took the reactivated [Horn of Plenty] and couldn't put it down.

These powers may not be of much use to gods, but to a country they are worth more than countless gold and silver treasures and magical weapons.

In particular, the land of Arcadia is mountainous and forested, and the land suitable for farming is quite limited. The Horn of Plenty, which allows for pioneering and guaranteed harvests, is simply the most valuable treasure for the Acadians.

And with this thing, Atalanta's position as queen will be unshakable.

Judging from the actions of this **** of agriculture, we can see that the sincerity of reconciliation and compensation is very high.

But...

"Although I want to help you clarify and understand your sincerity, it seems that I gave this thing to your followers, and in front of a group of divine blood heroes. I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public by just using it to pay off debts."

Lorne held the Horn of Plenty in his hand with a look of helplessness on his face.

To sum it up, it's not enough, so you have to pay more!

Although Demeter was kind, she was not a fool. She rolled her eyes at the little guy in front of her, hummed softly, took out another cloth bag, and placed it on the table.

"This is a spring seed bag. It contains high-quality seeds that I have selected and bred during my travels to various countries. If some crops suitable for the soil of Arcadia are promoted and planted, ordinary people will not have to risk going into the mountains to hunt monsters for food."

"I believe that the Arcadians will be grateful for your kindness and remember the sacrifices made by the Eleusinians to fight against the beast!"

Lorne immediately settled the position of the Eleusinian congregation and sent a favor to Demeter who was bleeding profusely.

"When the situation stabilizes, I will ask Her Majesty the Queen to consult scholars from the Eleusinian Mystery Cult for advice on re-cultivation and seedling cultivation."

"This is best."

Demeter heard this and nodded with satisfaction, a warm smile appeared on her face.

In fact, this was one of the reasons why she came to Arcadia.

She and her daughter Persephone were gods of agriculture and plants, but the followers of the Eleusinian Mystery were blindly pursuing "eternal life" and "immortality" because of the Eleusinian Mystery that she performed.

This is tantamount to sacrificing the basics and even hindering the spread of her faith.

Therefore, Demeter also planned to take this opportunity during her trip to bring order to the internal chaos and re-establish the doctrine and purpose of the Eleusinian Mystery.

And Lorne's secret move to send the group of people to farm perfectly met Demeter's expectations.

This is right. If you believe in agriculture and plant gods, you should practice medicine and cultivate the land honestly, study the characteristics of plants, and think about taking drugs and immortality all day long. Sooner or later, it will cause her new troubles.

Seeing that the problem that had troubled her for a long time was solved, Demeter was in a good mood and waved her hand, leaving behind a clay pot.

"I heard that her mother said that the child lost his father because of this incident and just succeeded to the throne? Accept it for her. This is a small gift from me."

The God of Agriculture said this, rolling his eyes at a certain little trickster who was trying new ways to blow her gold coins, and snorted angrily.

"…Extra!"

Lorne took the pottery pot with a smile, opened it curiously, and found that it was actually a pot of Hugh Oatmeal porridge.

"The portion I cooked with my own hands can't give her the immortality of a god, but it can wash away most of her mortal nature." Demeter responded softly, and then glanced at Arkady, who was sleeping soundly at the table. Queen Ya seemed to be aroused by her sympathy for the same illness, and added in a deep voice, "The wine her mother and I drank also contained..."

Lorne nodded, unable to help but be in awe of the **** of agriculture in front of him.

Being able to feel compassion for the suffering of mortals and be willing to take action is a rare quality for gods.

"Okay, that's all. It's time for me to leave."

The meeting officially ended, Demeter turned into green fluorescence and disappeared.

Just as Lorne was about to count the wool he had gathered, the twin brothers rushed in after returning.

"Someone is looking for you again. It seems that he is a god..."

The sound stopped suddenly, and the two of them looked at someone who stood up and leaned forward and the Queen of Arcadia who was sleeping soundly in front of him, with astonishment on their faces.
