Greece: Age of Ascension

Chapter 223 Poseidon's Speech
Thanatos solved the hundred-headed giant dragon Radon, flapped his jet-black wings, and staggered back to the island. The scene of the two fighting in the sea was completely seen by Hades, the king of the underworld. Looking at the tired Thanatos, Hades nodded, "You are indeed my loyal subordinate. Although the process was a bit difficult, fortunately, the result is very satisfying to me."

When Thanatos heard this, a blush appeared on his handsome face. As twins born with Sleeping God, Thanatos' appearance was not inferior to the other's, but sometimes his mind was a little dull. Praise, the whole person is also very excited. Under Hades' constant training, the evil god of the underworld has long agreed to Hades' rule.

It is undoubtedly an extremely honored thing to be able to contribute to the King of the Underworld at this moment.

"I only hate that my strength is low and I can't guarantee your safety very well, Your Majesty Hades, but please believe that if there is a place where you need to sacrifice your life, I will definitely define it."

"It doesn't have to be like this, Thanatos." Hearing his words, Hades showed a smile on his vicissitudes of face, and his long hair was blown by the wind, revealing his thin figure without a doubt.

"Your life, you should keep it for yourself."

Thanatos nodded, without too much flattery, because His Majesty Hades doesn't like those things, he followed Hades' gaze, looked at the entire island, and said, "Your Majesty, are you going to establish a city-state here?"

"Hmm." Hades nodded. The location of this island occupies the mouth of the sea. It is a good place. It can easily attract a navy. Once a city-state is established, it must be a powerful place.

In fact, this location is the former capital of Greece, the address of the city of Athens. In mythology, because the god of fire, Hephaestus, loves Athena, the god of wisdom and war. The God of Wisdom and War hated it, so he wiped off the dirt with wool and left it on the ground.

As a result, the filth on the wool combined with the earth and gave birth to Erechtheus, king of Athens.

Because of the interference of Atlas, the king of Athens was not born smoothly. Although Hephaestus, the god of fire, had harassed Athena, fortunately, there were no speechless things.

Unfortunately, even though Athena was acquired by Zeus, even more speechless things happened.

The city-state that Hades decided to build here was precisely to replace the city of Athens. The new city-state would replace the capital of Greece, so that the title of King of the Underworld would spread throughout the world along with Greece.

Thanatos, the god of death, didn't understand his plan. Seeing His Majesty Hades nodded, he praised: "It must be a great city-state, but facing the siege of Triton and the others, how should we deal with it?"

Thanatos said worriedly, and there was actually worry hidden in his heart, because he had dealt with the hundred-headed dragon Radon for a long time. If there were a few more sea monsters of the same strength, although he would not die, he would still have to deal with them. Tired enough.

Hades understood his thoughts, smiled slightly, his expression was relaxed, and he seemed not worried, he said: "Don't worry about these trivial matters, my loyal Thanatos. Soon, I believe Triton will catch up with you." Come and make amends to me."

"Oh?" Thanatos widened his eyes in surprise, but seeing that the king of the underworld seemed confident and didn't seem worried, he thought for a while and didn't ask any more questions.

As for why Hades is so confident, of course it is not without his reasons.

At this moment, Poseidon, the great sea god, is flickering among the crowd, hoping that humans can follow him and go to the Hellespont at the western end of Asia Minor Peninsula to build a city.

He stood on a tall stone, and according to what Hermes, the god of thieves, taught him, he called out: "I have been inspired by the sea, and I am the representative chosen by the sea god Poseidon. Build a city-state on the Hellespont, and those who come with me will be honored and favored by the great sea god.

To follow me is to follow the agent of the gods, to follow the gods! ! "

Poseidon raised his arms and overestimated. His tall stature and majestic appearance really bluffed a crowd of people who didn't know the details. Of course people knew about Poseidon, the god of the sea, but no one had seen his appearance.

Even though there are statues of Poseidon in some places, who would have thought that the famous sea god Poseidon would become a mortal?

Poseidon's words were naturally met with doubts, "If you are really the agent of the Sea God, why didn't you show a miracle in front of us?"

"Yes yes, can you make the sea raise a storm?"

Someone rubbed his chin and asked him playfully.

Poseidon nodded, his bearded face was full of confidence, "Of course I can!!"

"Then you demonstrate." The person who asked the question saw that he had a plan in mind, and booed loudly.

The surrounding people also broke away from watching the excitement, and all shouted loudly for him to demonstrate.

Poseidon raised his hand, and in an instant, a gust of wind suddenly rose, and the wind and clouds gathered together, as if the miracle was really about to be revealed at this moment.

But he has already been sealed with divine power, how could he do these things?
The angle of view is drawn to the sky, and several gods in the water, Nereus, the friend of the sea, and others are blowing a strong wind, coordinating with Poseidon's momentum, adding convincing force to his words.

Seeing that the surrounding wind suddenly picked up, dark clouds gathered, and the whole sky was dull like it was about to rain.

Poseidon raised his arms high, and couldn't help showing a smug smile on his face. That kid Hermes is a smart guy. He hangs around with Zeus all day and has learned a lot of bad ideas.

Using other sea gods to create momentum for him was a plan proposed by the other party. Although this was against Zeus's order, it would not attract the attention of the other party if it was just a side effect.

But the moment Triton ordered the sea monster to attack Hades, everything changed.

Originally, Zeus wanted the two parties to establish a city-state with their own strength, but now, with the participation of the gods, the personal grievances between two people have suddenly changed into a contract between two territories.

When Nereus, the friend of the sea, was blowing the strong wind, Poseidon yelled from below: "Did you see? I am the agent of the sea god. Whoever is willing to follow me will gain the favor of the sea god in the future." , as long as you build a city with me, the whole family will be famous in history."

Poseidon was agitating loudly, and many human ranger warriors were moved when they saw this, as if they were eager to try.

But Hades has already ordered to clean up Poseidon. All the evil gods of the underworld are eyeing him. How could he be given such a chance?
When Nereus, the friend of the sea, blows a gust of wind, Remos, who represents famine, the god of famine in the underworld, blows a gust of wind, and in an instant, endless locusts emerge from his mouth, rushing up to the sky overwhelmingly, towards the sky. Hades' city surged past.

The locusts are densely packed, and when they see all the plants, they will eat them all in an instant. When they fly in the sky, it seems like a sandstorm sweeping the whole world, covering the sky and covering the earth, everywhere.

Wherever these locusts went, not a single blade of grass grew, and immediately flooded the entire city.

Originally, Poseidon was raising his arms and shouting, showing miracles, but the densely packed locusts suddenly crossed the border, making him stunned, and the people were also stunned by such a terrible scene. Screaming in panic: "It's him!! It's him!!!"

The other party pointed at Poseidon, with a terrified expression on his face, and shouted: "He is the one who summoned the devil, he is the representative of the devil, and he brought us famine!!"

Only then did people realize that Poseidon wanted to perform a miracle, but the miracle really came. It wasn't heavy rain and wind, or a tsunami, but countless locusts.

"My God, kill him, definitely kill him!!"

The people were excited, and soon someone called the guards of the city. Facing the sky full of locusts, the guards rushed forward to detain Poseidon.

At any rate, Poseidon followed Zeus and fought against Cronus, the second generation king of the gods. Although he lost his divine power, he did not lose his martial arts.

Seeing this, he wanted to explain, but was stopped by two guards.

With a sudden force, he broke free from the restraints. Seeing this, the guards immediately drew out their swords.

He slashed towards Poseidon, but Poseidon didn't have time to explain, he quickly dodged forward, struck sideways, and slashed the opponent to the ground with a hand knife.

He snatched the sword from his hand.

But the next moment, more soldiers surrounded him.

Holding the sword in his hand, Poseidon said helplessly, "I'm not a demon, I'm Poseidon, the sea god himself!!"

There was another ridicule from the crowd, and his words were instantly debunked, "He just said that he is the agent of the sea god, but now he says that his sea god is clearly a devil with smooth words, who brought disaster to us, kill him quickly !!"

As soon as he spoke, the crowd immediately became excited and shouted: "Yes, kill him quickly! Kill this devil!!!"

Poseidon clenched his sword tightly, and a guard slashed over with his sword. Poseidon dodged sideways, and the tip of the sword flew past his ear. Poseidon struck back with a heavy blow. There was a sound of "bang", and the long sword broke.

The guard turned pale with fright. Just as he was about to run, Poseidon had already chased him close, raised his leg and kicked the guard over, and hit the guard's abdomen hard with an uppercut.

Poseidon showed no mercy. When the guard was knocked down, his mouth and nose were bleeding. Seeing that his life was hopeless, he simply gave up resisting, closed his eyes and waited for death.

Poseidon backed away, turned his head and said with a sneer, "I won't kill you, I just want you to believe that I have no malicious intentions."

The guard climbed up with difficulty, but the next second, another guard suddenly rushed out of the crowd, raised his sword and slashed at him: "Devil, go to hell!"

Poseidon raised his eyebrows sharply, swung his right arm, and the sword pierced the man's chest.

The guard lowered his head and covered the wound in his heart with his hands.He opened his mouth slightly, as if he wanted to say something more.Poseidon drew back his long sword, and blood gushed out, splashing the faces of several soldiers nearby.

"He killed Mars, he is really a demon!! Everyone, let's kill him!!!"

The soldiers drew out their weapons one after another and surrounded Poseidon, but Poseidon did not panic at all.

"Don't come here again, you are offending the gods!!" Poseidon said in a cold tone, while raising the long sword in his hand, he walked towards the nearest soldier step by step.

Poseidon walked up to the soldier, with his long sword stretched in the air, pointing directly at the soldier's throat.He asked slowly, "Tell me, where is your king?"

The soldier gritted his teeth and glared at him angrily: "The devil... I won't tell you anything..." Before he finished speaking, a bright red flower bloomed on the soldier's neck, his pupils quickly dilated, and he fell limply to the ground. Blood dripped down the tip of the sword onto the floor.

Poseidon didn't even look at him. Seeing this, the others raised their swords and slashed towards him. They saw a few swords gleaming with cold light, shining brightly in the sun. Poseidon didn't dare to neglect him, and quickly retreated a few feet.

"Pfft——bang!" Another sword pierced Poseidon's left rib, and he waved his sword in pain, beheading the opponent with one sword. The shoulder blades were immediately dripping with blood.Poseidon gritted his teeth and forced himself not to scream. While the rest of the guards were stunned, he rushed forward and pierced the sneak attacking soldier with his sword.

Poseidon gasped for a moment, and continued to attack the rest of the guards with his sharp sword. At this moment, his afterimages were all around. Those guards only stared at Poseidon, but did not pay attention to all directions. Find out immediately.

Poseidon fought more and more bravely, and finally cut off the head of a soldier with his sword.The remaining three soldiers dropped their weapons and fled when they saw the situation. Poseidon chased after him vigorously, beheaded one with a sword, and the remaining two were terrified, turned and fled outside.

Poseidon didn't want to miss the opportunity to kill the enemy. He leaped over the moat, jumped up with all his strength, stepped on the wall with the help of the rebound, and jumped half a foot away. The sharp blade in his hand cut through the air and pierced the backs of the two soldiers. .

The two guards fell to the ground and struggled for a moment, and finally stopped breathing unwillingly.

Seeing this, the people also dispersed one after another.

After all, it's okay to let them watch the fun and condemn them, but it's a bit embarrassing to really charge with a sword.

But soon, a lot of guards poured out of the city. After all, this is someone else's territory. Poseidon gave them an annoyed look. When was he in such a mess? Who on earth is so reckless and dares to sabotage his plan? .

Just when Poseidon was hesitating and thinking about whether to kill, the voice of Nereus, the old man of the sea, suddenly sounded next to his ear, "Your Majesty the Sea God, go quickly, the gods of the underworld are instigating, they released Locusts, and rumors instigated the king of the city-state to chase you down."

Poseidon gritted his teeth with hatred. It seemed that that bastard Hades didn't follow the rules and even sent evil gods to stop his plan.

Poseidon didn't know at the moment, because of Hermes' idea, his son Triton sent many sea monsters to besiege Hades, otherwise, the current scene would not have happened.

However, there is a saying that two fists cannot defeat four hands, Poseidon is not a person who does not listen to persuasion, he hastily dropped the blood-stained long sword and ran out.
