Chapter 88: Digging a hole, I am a professional (completed in 8k a day) (asking for votes)
Three days later, in a hidden valley somewhere in the Crete Mountains.
Orion sat in front of the fire, opened his mouth, tore off a **** piece of meat from a half-cooked wild boar leg, and chewed it hard.
The rough texture of the meat and the strong smell of lack of seasoning made him frown and curse secretly at his ignorant grandfather.
If the old man is sensible, he should bow his head early, admit his mistake, abdicate early to make way for someone better, and pass the position to him.
In this way, the beast tide disaster in Crete will naturally be solved. He does not have to hide in the deserted mountains and eat these rough foods. Instead, he should lie in the palace and enjoy the gold cup and silver. The exquisite delicacies and the attentive service of the beauties.
Looking at the barren mountains and old forests in front of him, which were completely different from those in his wonderful imagination, Orion took a sip of saliva and tried hard to swallow the dry meat that was irritating his throat. There were waves of annoyance in his eyes.
The deadline will be exceeded in two days, and this old man still refuses to give in. He is really stubborn.
Would you like to visit the city of Knossos again?
Orion couldn't help but hesitate a little when he thought about his last encounter in the palace.
Although he was tricked by the guy who appeared out of nowhere, it was because he was careless and did not dodge.
If you fight in an open and honest fight, or if you place the battlefield in the dense forest or sea where you are better at, you may not lose.
Coupled with the blessing God the Father had just bestowed upon him, the foreigner who only knew how to use intrigues was nothing to worry about.
What really gave him a headache was the old man's attitude.
Who knows, if the old man is cornered, will he break the jar in anger and drag his grandson on his back?
After all, in Greece, kinship relations are very delicate.
Often the closer the blood relationship is, the more ruthless the attack will be...
So, until the situation is unclear, it is better not to hang around in front of the grandfather, so as not to irritate the old immortal.
At worst, when the time comes, let Keto give them some color to see.
When it comes to a real critical moment of life and death, what do backbone, perseverance, right and wrong mean compared to life?
He doesn't believe that under the pressure of all the Minoans, the old man still refuses to bow?
However, when that time comes, you will have to pay a corresponding price if you want to bow your head.
for example…
Orion saw the graceful figure of his aunt before his eyes. He licked his dry lips, and a sinister smile appeared on his honest face.
He has never tasted the priestess of the virgin goddess Athena.
Just when Orion was thinking about it, a joking joke came to his ears.
“Hey, the food is good.”
There is someone!
Orion's expression changed, he stood up suddenly, raised his head and looked around.
I saw ripples in the air not far away like water waves, and a slender figure with silver hair shawl quietly emerged.
It's him!
Seeing that familiar face, Orion's heart skipped a beat, and his face became gloomy. He subconsciously picked up his hunting bow, nocked the arrows, and assumed a defensive posture.
“Don't be nervous, I'm here to negotiate terms for King Minos.”
Lorne waved his hands quickly, with a harmless smile on his face.
Hearing this, Orion could not help but feel happy.
"Old man...cough...grandfather, has he figured it out?"
Lorne nodded, smiled and spoke.
"That's right, as long as you are willing to expel Ceto, the mother of all monsters, back to the inner sea, swear an oath to the River Styx, and draw a clear line with Poseidon, the sea **** who leads this natural disaster, he will do it for your mother's sake. , let bygones be bygones, let you leave Crete safely.”
Hearing the so-called "peace conditions", Orion's face was livid and he was a little angry.
“Are you kidding me?”
"No, I'm just the one responsible for delivering the message. It's up to you."
Lorne spread his hands with an innocent expression.
Hearing that serious response, Orion was immediately laughed out of anger.
“Death is imminent, and you still want to negotiate terms with me to make me betray God the Father? Do you have the qualifications?”
"So, you were also involved in the beast tide? Since you want to be the king of Crete, aren't you afraid that the Minoans will spurn you when they learn the truth?"
Lorne looked at the son of Poseidon in front of him seriously and reminded him faintly.
"Spit?" Orion seemed to have heard a big joke, and looked at Lorne opposite with disdain, with a hint of cunning in his honest eyes.
"Oh, since the old man didn't come to me in person, it proves that he really has only a few days to live. And once he dies, no one can stop the mother of all monsters. The Minoans want to survive , you still have to kneel down and beg me?
People are always forgetful. They are willing to listen to whoever gives them a way to survive.
By then, as long as I have defeated Ceto and become a hero who can turn the tide, they will definitely put me on the throne. Who knows and who cares about what I have done? "
Lorn looked at Orion opposite him seriously and shook his head in retort.
“Someone will know the truth.”
“What if they knew? How dare they resist?”
The sarcasm on Orion's face became even more intense, and his eyes were filled with undisguised pride and arrogance.
“Don't forget, all of them will have to live on me. If they dare to disobey me, who will defend these idiots from the tide of beasts in the Sea of Oceanus and the army of Atlantis?
At that time, even my uncles and aunts will have to kneel in front of me obediently, lick my toes, and beg me to stay! "
“Well, that makes sense!”
Lorne seemed to be convinced, with a solemn look on his face, and clapped his hands for this perfect plan.
Immediately, the corners of his lips raised slightly, outlining a pleasant arc, he raised his hand and took out the bird feather pendant with rhythmic light patterns from the inside of his collar, and spoke quietly.
“So, did you all hear clearly?”
“Listen clearly…”
“Leave every word out!”
“Bah, Poseidon's bastard!”
The resonating voices of men and women came from the pendant, cold and low.
There are priests, priests, soldiers, and people...
Even, there were those princes and princesses who had a little bit of luck...
Hearing the constant curses and spurns coming from the pendant, the pride on Orion's face disappeared, and turned into the color of an angry pig's liver, and he looked forward angrily.
"You fool me?!"
“If you fall twice in the same place, you are obviously an idiot…”
Lorne glanced at the furious son of Poseidon and sneered at the last hit without mercy.
“Treat everyone as fools and always think that you are the smartest one. People like you are the biggest fools!”
"asshole…"
Orion, unable to argue, saw that his perfect plan was full of holes. His dream of taking advantage of the situation and becoming the king of Crete also shattered like a bubble. He suddenly crushed the dream hanging in his chest in anger. A sapphire on the front.
“You asked for this!”
In an instant, a blue water light rose into the sky, mixed with the ether in the air, and made a high-pitched sound.
“Buzz!!”
Suddenly, the sky and the earth darkened, and the sea became violently windy. A giant half-snake, half-fish beast rushed out of the water with a low roar, stirring up tens of thousands of tons of seawater, venting its anger at being disturbed from its peaceful sleep.
As the monster opened its huge mouth and advanced towards the noisy island of Crete, thousands of sea beasts blocked in the inland sea fled forward in panic.
The six-headed and twelve-legged giant Scylla has been restored, and the [Maelstrom] Charybdis, who has transformed into a human form of water, is currently on the run.
“Get into formation to defend against the enemy!”
At the same time, with an order, on the coastal fortress that had been re-reinforced and repaired, the princes and princesses as commanders drew their swords and waved their staffs, the gathered priests and priests chanted incantations, and the soldiers who were waiting in full formation or Raise your gun and shield at the top of the city, or step onto a warship and set sail.
The war called the Endgame has begun again.
At this moment, in the Crete Mountains, in the clearing deep in the dense forest.
At almost the same time that the frontal battlefield began, Orion, who was overwhelmed by anger, also roared, and with red eyes, he charged towards the culprit who had ruined his carefully planned arrangement.
This **** must die!
