Greek Mythology: Evolution from monitor lizards

Chapter 114 The favored child
"Huh... this sleep is really comfortable."

In the haze, Yang Qi opened his eyes, feeling that every cell in his body was filled, very comfortable.

"Where is this place?"

Yang Qi felt that he was being embraced by a pair of warm hands.

Looking up, it was the Empress Ming who held her in her arms.

Yang Qi was a little shy for a moment. He tried his best to break free from the control of the Empress Dowager, but his limbs were numb and he was hugged firmly.

"Are you awake, baby?" Came the faint divine voice of the queen of the underworld. She was sitting at a huge table made of white bones, and there were dead spirits flowing on it.

"Mom was worried about you just now. When I went to see you, you bit the cage open? As expected of my baby, she has great strength..."

"Mom was angry just now, that's why she locked you in the cage. But baby, you can't hurt mom, you know?"

"Mom sees you sleeping there, no one cares about you, but it hurts. Mom won't put you in a cage in the future, it's my mother's fault..."

Empress Dowager chattered.

"Let go of me meow. Let go of me meow."

Yang Qi originally thought it was disgusting to talk with a meow, but he quickly got used to it.

The Empress of Ming placed Yang Qi on the table, and then stroked Yang Qi's back with her hand, gentle but powerful, Yang Qi suddenly felt soft and extremely comfortable, and could not help lying on the table, allowing him to dispose of him.

"It turns out that being a cat is such a comfortable thing to be caressed."

Yang Qi lazily opened his eyes, only to see souls flickering one after another on the huge table from time to time, like will-o'-the-wisps.

The color of these souls is very new, obviously just came to the underworld.

Empress Dowager stared at those souls, her eyes flickering with brilliance, and then she whispered a few words, the balance beside her hand tilted from time to time, and then balanced again.

Yang Qi's perception of divine power is very keen, otherwise, with so many types of divine power in his body, he would have clashed with each other and died long ago.

He felt that those souls had confessed everything in front of the Queen of Hades.Then, the Queen of Hades judged them, deciding whether they should go to Elysee Paradise or fall into the endless abyss of Tartarus.

This was originally the duty of the three judges of the underworld.But the queen of the underworld deprived the power of the three judges of the underworld, and took this power into her own hands.

"So now, the power to judge the dead belongs to the Queen of Hades?"

"Is this a good thing or a bad thing? Probably a good thing... The power in the hands of the Queen of Hades has been expanded again."

"In the past, even if the three judges of the underworld were loyal to the Queen of the Underworld, I'm afraid it would not be easy to intervene directly... But the Queen of the Underworld doesn't find it tiring to deal with such big and small matters."

Yang Qi took a closer look at the frank confessions of his soul, such trivial matters, and soon lost interest.

"Yes..." Suddenly, Yang Qi's heart lit up.

Calypso.Yang Qi had seen her in the eternal vortex of the deep sea.She gave Yang Qi all her divine power.

Her soul is still wandering on the other side of the Styx, and Yang Qi promised to save her soul and let her rest in peace.

Since I have made an oath, I must keep it.

However, she is a prisoner of Zeus, and giving her soul rest may cause trouble.

Charon, the boatman of the Styx River, is dead, and the power of the three judges has also been deprived by the Queen of the Underworld. Now, the Queen of the Underworld has the final say on this matter.

"Queen of the Underworld..." Yang Qi said, "Can you help me, I want to save a soul."

"The Empress of the Underworld?" Suddenly, Yang Qi felt his whole body floating out of thin air, and he was grabbed by the Empress of the Underworld.

Minghou's beautiful eyes were staring at her very close.

"Baby, what's the matter with you? You call me the Empress of the Underworld?" Yang Qi felt the faint fragrance of the Empress of the Underworld, and her cold, slightly fluctuating divine power.

"Baby, since the competition in the underworld, I think you are a little strange. You have become misbehaving, and now, even the title is unfamiliar."

"Should you call me Queen of the Underworld? I am your mother. Call me mother."

"Damn meow..."

Although Yang Qi decided not to leave for the time being, he was still somewhat conflicted about this strange incident.Why did he somehow become the child of the Empress Dowager?

"What's the matter, baby?" Empress Dowager stroked Yang Qi's furry head, "Even mom won't call?"

Her gaze was gentle, but Yang Qi felt that if he didn't scream, she might get angry again.

"M...M..." Yang Qi reluctantly opened his mouth, and finally squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Mom..."

It's really a little shy.

"That's right, dear baby." The Empress put Yang Qi on the table, "Whose soul do you want to save?"

"Calypso, her soul is wandering on the other side of the River Styx." Later, Yang Qi said, "She is a prisoner of Zeus."

"I know." The Empress of Hades didn't raise her head, still judging those souls, "Daughter of Atlas. The victim of the second Titan War."

"Can it be saved?" Yang Qi asked.

"Since the baby wants to save her, it's fine. I'll let her soul cross the river and let her rest in peace."

"It won't cause trouble, will it?"

"Don't worry about this baby. If ordinary creatures want to save her, it will be a big trouble. But since it's me, Olympus won't be embarrassed by such a small matter."

"..." Yang Qi stared at the Queen of the Underworld, the beautiful and great Queen of the Underworld.The actual ruler of the underworld, the master of all undead, the actual owner of "death".

Things that I think are extremely difficult are just a word to Empress Ming.

"And..." Yang Qi gritted his teeth. "Mom, I want to be sealed and become the righteous god of Olympus."

"What?" Yang Qi's eyes lit up when he saw Empress Ming, she grabbed Yang Qi and held him in her arms, "Baby is finally willing to accept the seal?"

"How many times did my mother tell you before that you were unwilling to accept the edict, saying that what power brings is responsibility, and what responsibility brings is endless pain and trouble."

"Finally figured it out now?" The Empress Dowager smiled like a flower, "What divine right does the baby want?"

"The right to judge all undead? The right to rest and tranquility? The right to decay? The right to fear and yearn for death? The right to rule the wilderness of the underworld?"

"Whatever you want, mom will give you."

"Damn meow..." Yang Qi complained secretly in his heart, "It's better to have a mother."

"I have gone through crazy training and fighting before, and I have gone through untold hardships, but I can only get the attention of the underworld and get a slim chance."

"Now I just open my mouth and ask for it... Ouch..."

"This difference is too big..."

Then Yang Qi thought for a while, "I want the best."

Yang Qi saw that Empress Dowager's eyes were smiling, "Of course, my baby must get the best."

"I'll arrange it for you. Three days later, I'll hold a conferring ceremony for you."

"I also want the god stone of the underworld to use for cultivation." Yang Qi said.

"Baby, what's wrong with you?" Yang Qi felt that the Empress of the Underworld hugged him even tighter, "I figured it out? I've been telling you to practice before, but you never went there, you only like to sleep in the house, or go out to provoke those underworld butterflies ..."

"Your father has been in a half-dead state for ten thousand years. Although your brother is strong, he is always a bit stupid. Your sister is withdrawn and can't be expected. Only you...are smart and have great potential, but you have always been lazy. I'm going to die..."

"Baby, it's great that you figured it out... Great... Mom is so happy..."

Yang Qi felt that the Queen of the Dead was trembling all over, and the will called "love" turned into a solid body, forming a layer of rose-colored halo, covering Yang Qi tightly, and Yang Qi felt that his whole heart was beating, warm The hot current flowed all over the body, and the tears were about to flow down.

Yang Qi almost fainted, the strong will of love hit his brain, making Yang Qi feel extremely happy.The happiness of feeling favored is very different from the happiness of becoming stronger, or the happiness of pure physicality.

"Is this the feeling of being favored..." Yang Qi felt his soul rise to a high place.

"Baby, here..."

Yang Qi saw that a bloody key descended from the sky, and the divine sound of the howling of the dead flowed in it.

"The key to the treasure house of the underworld."

"There's whatever you want in it. Baby can take whatever he wants."
