Chapter 55 A sneak attack from fate
Seeing that Lorne on the opposite side was throwing out several excuses one after another, and was unwilling to take the bait, Athena could only suppress the malice in her heart for the time being, and rolled her eyes angrily at this little **** who always made her unhappy.
“Then let's play chess, I just have some new insights.”
“Okay, I'll listen to you.”
Having escaped the danger of being beaten by Fatty, Lorne decisively got off the **** and put on the chessboard. He recalled Hecate's chess moves and began to trick Athena in order to deal with the dog gambling goddess in the future.
Time flies, and it is already dusk outside the window. The dim light of the setting sun shines through the window lattice and into the living room. Hestia is busy cleaning up the chores, and the two people who occupy the long table are fighting inextricably on the chessboard.
“Lorne, Lorne!”
With the end of the game, little Medusa, who was playing with Nikki in the backyard, took her little friend and ran into the house happily, showing him something hanging on her chest.
It was a bronze medal with an intertwined pattern of several giant snakes coiled around it.
Lorne touched the little Medusa's head and asked with a smile.
"What?"
“A gift! A gift from Nikki!”
Little Medusa answered excitedly, her little face filled with pride.
Lorne looked at it a few more times and agreed patiently,
“Well, it looks good and suits you well.”
“More than that!”
Little Medusa shook her head, with a trace of solemnity on her face. She raised her hand and held the bronze medal in her palm, activating her divine power.
In an instant, the bluish-gray majesty flowed from Little Medusa's fingers throughout her body, turning into a set of gleaming bronze full-body armor with the iconic snake pattern on it, just like a living creature.
“Buzz!”
At the same time, Medusa's little hand shook, and with a faint metallic trembling sound, a snake-like bronze chain sword appeared in the little girl's palm. As she waved it casually, a sharp whine cut through the air.
Feeling the powerful divinity contained in the armor and the aura of Little Medusa that suddenly increased several times, Lorne couldn't help but change his face.
"This is…"
“Bronze snake armor, this is the armor I asked the craftsman **** Hephaestus to incorporate part of my divinity into and build it myself.”
The goddess of wisdom opposite put down the chess piece she was playing with, smiled and spoke lightly, and then looked at Lorne opposite with a playful look.
“Originally, this was prepared for you. But after thinking about it, you didn't seem to need it, so I asked Nikki to give it to Anna.”
The corners of Lorne's mouth twitched, and his intestines turned blue with regret.
What an artifact! A real artifact! I blasted Circe over and over again, but I couldn't find any high-end goods!
Moreover, this is a masterpiece that incorporates Athena's snake divinity and was personally crafted by the craftsman **** Hephaestus.
You must know that Achilles, the great hero in the Trojan War, was able to defeat the entire city of Troy, which also had the help of gods, because he had acquired a complete set of equipment produced by the **** of craftsmanship.
In the end, Apollo, one of the twelve main gods, came to the end in person, transformed into the sixth man, shot from the dark, and shot an arrow through Achilles's heel, which was the only weak point in his body. This made this almost invincible giant on the frontal battlefield Hero, completely offline.
Similarly, if the thing in front of him were worn on his body, Lorne estimated that even his fellow demigods could walk sideways, and even if they met a real god, they would still be able to fight.
As if she felt Lorn's heartbeat, little Medusa simply pulled off the bronze badge on her chest and stuffed it directly into Lorn's hand.
“I don't have any use for this, so I'll give it to you.”
Lorne felt warm in his heart and gently pressed Medusa's little hand, showing a gentle smile.
"No, the divinity of the snake is most consistent with your bloodline. This thing seems to have recognized its owner, so you should keep it yourself."
Immediately, he paused, pointed at Nikki in the backyard, and whispered a reminder.
“Moreover, gifts from friends cannot be easily transferred to others.”
Under Lorne's repeated advice, Medusa was a little shaken and a little embarrassed.
"But…"
“Take this emblem and you can enter and leave my temple at will.”
Athena on the opposite side spoke softly, with a smile on her face, and a hint of temptation in her tone.
“It's the kind where you can eat whatever you want...”
For a moment, little Medusa stared straight at the bronze emblem in her hand and swallowed unconsciously.
Immediately, the little girl decisively stuffed the long-term meal ticket back in her hand, raised her head solemnly, and looked at Lorne in front of her seriously.
"Don't worry, I will protect you!" Looking at the little Medusa who had been fed up with a few meals and ran back to the backyard, Lorne was a little dumbfounded. He turned to look at Athena opposite and asked helplessly.
“Let her take this and go to your temple to eat and drink, it's not good after all.”
"Of course ordinary people don't have this qualification, but she is my priestess, walking on the earth on behalf of my will, and enjoying my tributes and offerings, shouldn't it be reasonable?"
Athena, who had been prepared for this for a long time, spoke calmly.
However, when these words fell into Lorn's ears, they brought a shock like thunder to the ground. He looked at the goddess of wisdom in front of him in astonishment.
“Priestess? Yours?”
"yes."
Athena nodded, her eyes fell on the little Medusa who was playing with Nikki in the backyard, and she felt a touch of gentleness.
“I like this child very much, and she also likes the city of Knossos very much. Since you don't have any use for this thing, you might as well train her to be my priestess.”
Lorne listened carefully, with a calm expression on the surface, but his heart was filled with waves that were difficult to calm down.
According to a certain legend, after Medusa became the priestess of Athena, she would be famous for her beauty that was comparable to Athena, which also attracted the covetousness of Poseidon.
In the end, Medusa was first defiled by the shameless Poseidon in the temple, and then she was spurned and cursed by Athena for losing her virginity, and completely transformed into a demon.
—Could it be said that even if the ending of the Invisible Island is successfully avoided, fate, as a certain fate, still has strong corrective properties, and will try to bring everything back on track in another way?
Sure enough, even if you get the [Accidental Dice], it is not that easy to completely leverage the [Inevitable Destiny].
Foreknowing that a new crisis had already laid the root of disaster for Medusa, Lorne frowned deeply, pondered for a moment, and looked at Athena hesitantly, trying to get the goddess of wisdom in front of him to give up this idea.
“Boom!”
However, before he could speak, there was a violent vibration outside the window, and the entire island of Crete shook slightly.
Athena's expression changed, she suddenly stood up and rushed out the door, and everyone subconsciously followed her.
At this moment, the sky and the earth were dark, and a huge wave with a height of more than a hundred feet on the vast sea was rapidly advancing towards the coastline of Crete.
The Minoan people on the street could not help but turn pale as they looked at the torrent that swallowed everything. Some screamed and ran away, or hugged their relatives and hid in corners and shrank. The whole city was filled with the mournful cry of doomsday.
Damn it, can you bear it so quickly? !
The goddess of wisdom's eyes were gloomy, and the divinity in her body spurted out, turning into golden flames, soaring straight into the sky, defeating the dark clouds gathering in the sky in one fell swoop.
However, the waves on the sea continue to advance, and the crisis has not yet been completely resolved.
“Nikki!”
Athena gave a low shout, and the little goddess of victory in front of the door immediately turned into a golden-blue spear and flew into the owner's hand, exuding a world-shattering edge.
Immediately, the goddess of wisdom, who was covered in bronze armor and summoned a sheepskin aegis with her other hand, pondered solemnly.
“I'll come back as soon as I go. You should take care of this place first and don't let others get close to the coastline!”
"good!"
Little Medusa nodded without hesitation and rushed to the panicked crowd first, shouting this warning.
At the same time, after finishing her instructions, Athena stretched out her bright golden metal wings behind her and flew towards the huge waves that were almost approaching the island of Crete.
Lorne and Hestia looked at each other and couldn't help but see the common worry in each other's eyes.
Trouble may be coming...
I recommend a book by a big shot [Public Execution from King Dumbao]. It is high-quality, has a lot of imagination, and is full of content.
Content introduction: Su Yun came to a comic book world that was about to collapse due to a mysterious resurgence, but he did not panic at all.
Because, he can edit the stories of two-dimensional girls and broadcast them publicly, gain enough reputation by publicly executing the girls, and then...
So…
"Artoria, I am your previous life, King Arthur!" Su Yun, who was in the form of the stupid king, said heroically as he looked at the confused foreign student Artoria.
"Elf of Evil, that's me, that's you! Kurumi Tokisaki!" Su Yun, who transformed into the spirit of time, stood in front of the astonished Kurumi Tokisaki, with a seductive smile on his face.
"Baalzebul, the power of thunder is my power, and my shape is your own power. Now, try to take out your own power from your body! Its name is - Dream One Heart!" Baal After listening to General Thunder's words, Zebu subconsciously reached for his chest with his right hand.
Morgan Le Fay, Tamamo Mae, Miyamoto Musashi, Yae Kamiko…
One after another, ordinary girls who were originally powerless, under Su Yun's evil intentions, showed their extraordinary side to the whole world.
Therefore, people really believed that they did have extraordinary power, and therefore, they really gained extraordinary power.
The world has been completely changed by this, and the history of human beings' inability to defeat the mystery has been rewritten!
