Greek Mythology: Evolution from monitor lizards

Chapter 134 Pure Evil, The Answer That Doesn't Exist
"Guess?" Sphinx blinked, staring at the cat, feeling something was wrong.

The girl next to the cat has low power and is nothing to be afraid of.

That ghost, however, has strong divine power, and has a faint breath of a king, as if he is the son of the king's god.

The cat made the Sphinx even more uneasy.

The divine breath exuding from his body was extremely surging, and even in a trance, the Sphinx felt a dark mountain pressing down on him.

Moreover, he is deliberately controlling his divine power!
His real divine power may be even stronger than this!

The Sphinx thought about it, and then opened his mouth, flicking his bright red tongue.

"You want to guess the riddle...? Yes."

"However, we have to make a covenant. You must know the power of a covenant, hehe."

"I know." Yang Qi nodded.

He once made a covenant with Cronus, and Cronus gave him supernatural power, but he didn't believe in Zeus.

A covenant is a bondage to both parties.

Those who violate the agreement will be punished by the original power of the Olympus God Realm.

Sphinx's eyes lit up, and he said, "Then we'll make a deal! If you answer wrong, you won't be able to resist, and you'll be eaten by me, hehehe!"

Yang Qi said: "If I answer correctly, I don't want wealth and power. You have to answer my three questions honestly."

Sphinx was overjoyed, "Hee hee hee, that's the best!"

Sphinx thought in his heart, as long as the other party can't guess the puzzle, no matter how powerful his divine power is, he has no choice but to be eaten by himself under the shackles of the covenant!

As for his own puzzle, he would never be able to guess it, especially the last one!
"Hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee so great There was a gurgling sound, and the gastric juice was secreted rapidly.

"If you want to ask me three questions, then you have to guess three riddles! No problem! Hee hee hee!"

"Brother, don't promise her. I feel that she has bad intentions." Molinoe said softly.

Medea also lowered her head and stared at the cat. "Husband, three questions, are you okay?"

"No problem." The cat replied.

Yang Qi's perception of divine power is extremely keen, and he can guess ordinary puzzles.

Moreover, Yang Qi vaguely knew what puzzles the Sphinx would pose.

"Okay! That's cheap for you, and I'll ask you a puzzle from just now."

Sticks' bloody tongue kept flicking, "The first puzzle."

"I have countless little selves, and countless little selves make up who I am. I am the thirstiest. I look like this today, and I will look different tomorrow, but you can still recognize me."

"What am I?"

This is the riddle that the Sphinx posed to the mermaid just now.

Many creatures raised their heads, looked at the cat and the sphinx, and couldn't help talking.

"This question is really difficult..."

"Elephants are the thirstiest. I've seen them drink water."

"Idiot, does an elephant change its appearance every day?"

"Sure enough... Sphinx doesn't care about the first two puzzles, and doesn't even bother with new questions." Yang Qi thought to himself.

"Husband... How about it, okay? No, I'll run with you right away." Medea hugged herself tightly and said in a low voice with divine breath.

As for Merinoe, he bowed his head in silence and tried his best to think. "Is there something that will change its appearance every day, but can still be recognized...?"

"Hee hee hee hee, what's up, kitten?! It's time!" Sphinx's eyes were shining, his teeth were shining coldly, and he wished he could swallow the cat right away.

"What's the answer? Tell me!"

Yang Qi had already guessed the answer, so he didn't panic.

He began, "The answer is the desert."

"The desert is composed of countless sand grains. The desert is essentially a lot of sand grains, so countless small me make up me. The desert is so dry that any water will be absorbed, so it is the thirstiest. The wind blows the sand every day , constantly changing the shape of the desert, so it changes its appearance every day. But the desert is still a desert no matter how it changes, and of course it can be recognized."

As soon as Yang Qi answered, all the living beings quieted down instantly, and then there were many discussions.

"Sure enough...everything is correct!"

"I never thought the answer would be the desert..."

"How long has it been since no creature answered the question of the Goddess of Wisdom?!"

"This is the first I've ever seen!"

"There is such a smart cat... Why does my cat eat and sleep every day?"

All living beings feel both envy and regret.Enviously, the cat guessed the puzzle correctly, but unfortunately, he didn't want power or wealth.

Mo Linuoer turned her head, and she nodded slightly to Yang Qi. "Baby brother, you answered well. I didn't expect you to be quite smart."

"Husband!" Yang Qi only felt Medea hugging him tighter.

"!!" Sphinx heard the answer, her complexion became extremely ugly, she panted heavily, her saliva dripped on the ground, trembling all over, she seemed to want to jump up and swallow the cat immediately.

After a long time, she gritted her teeth and said reluctantly, "Forget it...you guessed it right."

Then she exhaled two masses of blood-red gas from her nostrils, crawled to the cat, and stared at him with her two huge eyes, almost touching each other.

The strong smell of putrefaction and blood rushed straight to the cat.The cat's face remained unchanged, and it flicked its tail, "Quickly next question meow."

"Hee hee hee hee...Little cat, you just guessed a question correctly, don't be so proud..."

"Second question, I never walk, but I can cross the land. If there is no road, I make my own. I have a bed, but I never go to sleep. I came from the sky, and finally returned to the sky."

"So, who am I?"

It's still the same problem.

As soon as the Sphinx finished speaking, the cat replied, "The answer is the river."

"The river can cross the land without walking. If there is no road, the river will rush out of the river, so it will make its own way. The river has a river bed, it is flowing all the time, and of course it will not sleep peacefully. It enters the sea, evaporates into clouds, falls into rain, and flows into rivers, so it comes from the sky and returns to the sky."

Snapped!
At the same time, the cat flicked its tail on the Sphinx's face, and a huge red mark appeared on her face.

"Don't come so close to me. Brush your teeth when you have nothing to do. It stinks."

"You!!!" The Sphinx backed away suddenly. She raised her paw and touched her face, which was extremely painful.

She trembled all over, and a murderous killing intent flowed from her eyes. The killing intent condensed into a solid body, turning into maggots and falling to the ground.

After a while, the murderous intent in her eyes disappeared, and then she laughed, "Hehehehe! Okay, little cat, you are smart enough!"

"But don't get too excited, there is one last puzzle!"

"If you guess wrong, don't forget the promise we made, to be my dinner!"

She said viciously, "I'm going to chew you up!"

The cat said: "Are you that confident? Meow. Hurry up, the next question."

"Little cat, listen up."

"Who walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening? When it has the most legs, it is also the time when it walks the slowest and has the weakest physical strength."

As soon as this question came out, the hearts of all living beings exploded!

"Elves in the forest walk on two legs. Centaurs in the steppe walk on four. But I've never seen anyone walk on three?"

"Who has three legs? I've never seen anyone with three legs!"

"Also, use four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs at night...?"

The cat didn't move, but it was thinking in its heart, "This is indeed the problem!"

"Fuck, sphinxes are pure evil!"

"The answer to this question is man. Man has not been created yet, and there is no man in the world. Who can guess it? I'm afraid even Zeus can't guess it when he comes here!"

"Fortunately, I know the answer."

"And... the answer to the riddle that the Sphinx asked the mermaids is the desert. Mermaids live in the sea all year round and rarely go ashore. Where have they ever seen a desert?"

"From the beginning to the end, the mermaid guessed things like starfish and aquatic plants."

"The riddle that the Sphinx asked the centaur, the answer is the river. The centaur lives in the desert, the sky is full of yellow sand, where has it seen a river?"

"The same goes for the centaur. They guessed things like cacti and scorpions from beginning to end." "The Sphinx is not guessing riddles at all. She is just using the excuse of guessing riddles to kill and eat creatures!"

"Hee hee hee hee hee hee!" Sphinx came forward, she laughed wildly, "How about it, little cat?! Can't guess it! Can't guess it, hahahaha!"

"If you can't guess, let me eat it!" Sphinx stretched out his bright red tongue, about to wrap the cat around, and opened his mouth wide!

She had a cruel smile on her face, her tail flicked wildly behind her, she was extremely excited!
Brush—and then there was a crackling sound.

Plop, the Sphinx flew tens of meters away, and landed heavily on the ground. The teeth in her mouth were all shattered, and blood continued to flow out.

"Woo—!" Sphinx wailed, feeling extremely severe pain, but what frightened her more than that pain was the cat's speed!

She only vaguely felt that the cat's tail moved slightly just now, and then she was instantly knocked into the air, and her teeth were all shattered!

"What's the rush, meow, I haven't answered yet." The cat jumped off the girl's shoulders, and walked slowly to the side of the Sphinx, "The answer is people."

"When a person is born, he can only use his hands and feet to crawl on the ground. When he grows up, he can walk on both feet. When he is old and has difficulty moving, he must use a cane. This is the third leg." Cat understates Speaking of.

As soon as the cat's answer came out, all living beings couldn't help but get excited!

They looked at the cat and the sphinx in amazement, talking a lot.

"Morning, noon, evening, actually refer to childhood, adulthood, old age?"

"But what is a man? Never heard of it."

"People who walk on two legs have only seen elves and nymphs. Are people the same as them?"

"Where are people? What is a person?"

"...!!!" Hearing the cat's answer, the Sphinx's pupils contracted rapidly, and an incredible expression appeared on his face!
She opened her mouth, "No...not right!!"

"What is a person? I've never heard of it...haha...you're wrong..."

Snapped!The cat flicked its tail on her face again, the Sphinx wailed, and the flesh and blood drew an arc in the air.

"There is no point in sophistry, you know I answered correctly, don't you feel the power of the [covenant] between us?"

"The appointment has taken effect, which proves that my answer is correct. Now, answer my question, meow."

The cat came to the Sphinx, spread its transparent wings, and released all its divine power without hesitation. The crimson and blue-black flames shot straight into the sky.

"!!!" Sphinx felt her heart beating extremely fast, and she felt an astonishing pressure erupting from the cat, as if the whole sky had descended to overwhelm her!
"Such a majestic divine power..." Fear and shock exploded in the Sphinx's eyes!

"The soul of a creature who violates the covenant will be squeezed into a small point in an instant, and then smashed into thousands of pieces. I don't need to talk about the pain in it, meow."

The third eye on the cat's forehead opened, and Yang Qi could see the thread of fate between himself and the Sphinx.

Two golden silk threads are slightly entangled, which is proof of the successful conclusion of the contract.

"Answer my question meow." The cat rested its paw on her forehead, "First question, are you Metis or a Sphinx?"

"You!!" The wings behind the Sphinx flapped, "You know my real name?! How do you know?"

"Sure enough... you are a Sphinx." The cat thought in his heart.

Then he continued: "Why are you here, guessing riddles for all living beings?"

The Sphinx fell silent.

Poof, without hesitation, the cat pierced the Sphinx's eye socket with its claws, dug out the eyeball, threw it on the ground and crushed it.

The Sphinx wailed, rolling on the ground unceasingly.

"How many innocent lives have you eaten, fifty thousand or one hundred thousand? I don't have any sympathy for you, meow."

Buzz... The cat's eyes flashed with light, and then the surrounding shadows began to flow, turning into dark shackles, locking the Sphinx firmly.

"The second question meow. Why are you here to guess riddles for all living beings?"

"To... devour them..." Half a day later, the Sphinx gritted his teeth and spoke out with difficulty.

There was a bit of dodge in her eyes and words.

"Interesting, meow. In the God Realm? Pretend to be Metis and then devour living creatures?"

"You think the gods of Olympus are all blind, can't you see the disappearance of life? Do you think the gods of Olympus are all cages, can't you hear the screams of creatures?"

the cat said softly.In his heart, he had a slight guess as to why the Sphinx was here, and he was confirming it.

"Are you the ordered meow?" the cat finally asked.

"Ah..." Sphinx showed a trace of fear and madness, "No, powerful cat, don't ask me this question, I can't answer it!"

"Then you will either be beaten to death by me, or you will be killed by the power of Yue." The cat flicked its tail casually, and his tail flashed through the air like lightning, wrapped around the Sphinx's tongue, and then pushed out hard. pull.

The long bright red tongue of the Sphinx was pulled straight, and then broke from the middle, with blood splashing everywhere. The Sphinx wanted to jump up in pain, but was trapped by the shackles. She struggled desperately, and the shackles were deeply embedded in her flesh.

"Pretending to be the righteous god of Olympus is a capital crime. You should be glad that you were discovered by us, not by the goddess Themis. The evil-slaying silver sword in her hand is said to be colder than an iceberg."

Melinoe slowly floated over and spoke softly.

"Husband, I know a way that can make her feel great pain without completely dying." Medea came over and picked up the cat, "Would you like her to try it?"

The cat flicked its tail, "Okay, Sphinx, answer my question meow. Are you ordered, and who ordered you?"

"No, I can't say... I can't say... I've seen its majesty and terror, I can't say! It's so powerful, its hands and eyes can reach the sky, it will prevent my soul from crossing the River Styx, and it will stay in the underworld forever. Wandering across the river!”

"what!!!"

At this moment, the Sphinx let out a scream, and her stomach began to bulge extremely fast, as if something was swimming in it!
Yang Qi opened his third eye and saw that it was a peacock!

A peacock suddenly woke up in the stomach of the Sphinx!

The sphinx wailed: "Here it comes! It comes! No, I can't answer, I can't provoke it...Ah!!"

puff!

Blood splattered.

The peacock opened its screen directly in the sphinx's stomach, and the steel-like wings of the peacock exploded in her abdomen, and the sphinx died instantly.

Then the peacock itself was reduced to ashes.

Needless to say, this kind of killing method knows who ordered the Sphinx!
"Hera." After a while, Yang Qi said softly.

Obviously, the Sphinx was instructed by Hera to guess riddles for all living beings here!

"Hera's purpose..." Yang Qi shook his head, "It is to slander and discredit Metis."

"Look at those creatures. When they talk about Metis, there is fear in their eyes, and there is an unspeakable anger in their hearts."

"The words of praise in the mouth are all insincere."

"They hate Metis, and Hera has achieved her purpose."

Yang Qi's heart was pounding. Hera used this strategy to gradually change the image of Metis from a gentle and intelligent goddess of wisdom to an evil and ferocious goddess who kills with riddles! "

"She gradually changed the image of Metis in the hearts of all living beings!"

"Tsk tsk..." Yang Qi couldn't help but think of the scene he had seen before.

When Zeus and Hera were in deep love, Metis woke up. She saw Zeus betraying her. Then she was surrounded by countless peacocks, who pecked out her eyes.

"Hera has already controlled Metis' body and can torture her at will. Now, she is destroying her reputation and glory."

"How much does Hera hate Metis?"

Yang Qi opened the third eye on his forehead, feeling the divine power.

The peacock that killed the Sphinx was planted in the Sphinx long ago.

If the Sphinx wanted to betray Hera, he would explode and kill her.

This is the first time that Yang Qi can feel Hera's divine power.

"It is exactly as I expected...Hera is powerful, ferocious, and quite intelligent and strategic. After all, she is the queen of the gods."

Yang Qi briefly explained the cause and effect to Melinoe and Medea.

Merinoe said: "So... why did the goddess Metis give us a reminder to let us come here?"

"Just to kill the Sphinx?"

"No..." Yang Qi squinted his eyes, staring at the huge temple in the distance.

"There is a special divine power in the temple... There may be treasures in it."
