Greek Mythology: Evolution from monitor lizards

Chapter 148 The neglected goddess, the answer to the fountain of wisdom
Buzz... A cool breeze blew around, and the sound of clear springs sounded in his ears. The power of Metis' wisdom was constantly injected into the cat's body.

After a long time, the cat opened its eyes.

There is no change in the source of divine power, and there is no change in the body.

Just become more discerning.

Cat thought: "Most of the divine power will be gathered in the source of divine power."

"But Rhea's power of gems transformed my body. Metis's power of wisdom made me smarter."

"Both of these powers are very strange."

"Woo-woo--" the cry of the mourning bird rang out from the sky.

The cat's ears twitched and it raised its head.

Mourning birds are very common creatures in the underworld, but in order to feed those young dragons, the cats slaughtered the area within a million miles into a no-man's land. This sound has not been heard for a long time.

Then, the cat's pupils opened.

This is a mourning bird king!Its body was nearly [-] meters tall, with thousands of ghosts wrapped around it, and its sharp claws shone coldly in the dark night sky.

It's nothing to mourn the king of birds. Cats have killed many.The important thing is that the cat discovered that the color of the thread of fate wrapped around the mourning bird king was very dim in one place!

"I can see the thread of its destiny... It's not surprising, I've seen it before."

"But, why is there a place on its fate thread that looks so bleak?"

"Could it be—its weakness?!"

"Meow!"

The cat roared angrily and arched his back, but he did not mobilize his divine power, but tried his best to suppress his divine power.

As long as a little bit of magical power is used, the cat can instantly kill the mourning bird king.However, the cat wants to give it a try and overwhelm the divine power to the minimum. How far has his fighting power reached!
"Woo——!" The mourning bird king roared, his cry full of killing intent, and he swooped down.

The cat watched the mourning bird king carefully, watching the threads of fate around it.

The mourning bird king swooped down, opened its sharp claws, and clawed hard at the cat. The cat suddenly turned around and dodged, waving its claws in the air and tearing away——!
The cat ripped off one of its wings without even using any strength!

Poof, the mourning bird king suddenly lost its balance and fell heavily to the ground. It wailed, closed its eyes, and died.

"really!"

The cat's heart was pounding, "I absorbed the power of wisdom and awakened a new ability. I can see the weaknesses of other creatures!"

"The gray thread of fate is their weakness!"

"The power of wisdom is indeed powerful, worthy of the goddess Metis! It cannot be used directly in combat, but it is so convenient to assist in combat!"

"Ha ha!"

The cat dug out the heart of the mourning bird king, stuffed it into its mouth, and then flew to the underworld.

He spat out the keys to the treasury of Hades, and the dark mountains closed in on him.

"Melinoe should be in the treasury of the underworld, studying the medicine of the fall of the gods..."

"I have absorbed a lot of wisdom power. Maybe, I can really prepare the medicine of divine fall."

The cat enters the treasure house of Hades and he flies towards the cabin.

Melinoe is indeed here. After being whipped by Hades, she returned to her ghost state.

She just floated there, staring down at the pot of medicine being brewed.

The cat fell to the ground.

"Brother - you are here." Melinoe regained his ethereal voice.

The cat discovered that there were many green beads under Melinoe's body.

"Here, sister, are you crying?" The cat fiddled with the beads with its paws. The beads jingled and sounded ethereal. These were Melinoe's tears.

"Yes - I'm in so much pain."

"Why is my father so harsh on me? I have studied so hard, shouldn't he comfort me -"

"Why, my father is so kind to Zagreos, you, and even Taliyah, but he is so kind to me——"

Melinoe shook her body, and the color around her became darker and darker, as if it was about to disappear.

"Meow." The cat stretched out its paw curiously, and the paw flew into the air, directly passing through Melinoe.

Melinoe's body became darker and darker, and then she completely disappeared, like a wisp of smoke floating in the air.

"Where did you go?"

The cat is not worried that Melinoe really disappears.She had been taken care of by the Queen of Hades for a long time, and the Queen of Hades would definitely not allow her child to die so easily.

"Behind you."

The cat felt the hair on its forehead being pulled by someone, it was Queen Xiao Ming.

She lay on the cat's head and slept for a long time, and now she finally woke up.

She pointed behind her, "There, kitty."

The cat turned around and saw air flowing, divine light dots, and Melinoe's body reorganized. She knelt on the ground, lowered her head, and looked carefully at a netherworld grass on the ground.

"Brother - come here." Melinoe stared at the Nether Grass, motionless.

The cat walked over.

"I think - I don't really understand the mysteries of these sacred flowers and herbs." Melinoe said softly, "In the past, I just kept trying various formulas and measurement combinations."

"I want to integrate my consciousness into this grass and truly understand it."

Buzz... A hint of divine aura passed into the cat's mind, which was the result of Melinoe's long-term research.

"Brother, go ahead and try...if it doesn't work, remember...give up early."

Tears flowed out of Melinoe's eyes again, fell to the ground, and condensed into dark green beads, "This is really - too difficult -"

She put her hand on the Netherworld Grass, and then her figure gradually disappeared and merged into the grass.

"Melinoe's idea is right. Integrate consciousness into them and truly understand their medicinal properties."

"I just don't know how long it will take."

The cat felt a little sorry for Melinoe.

Then the cat read the breath that Melinoe gave him.

"The fountain of the abyss, the fruit of morning dew, the fruit of the kaleidoscopic mirror..."

"My sister is a bit stupid."

The cat was reading carefully when he suddenly heard a divine voice.

The divine voice was unusually quiet. It spoke but seemed not to speak.

It was as if I was in a dream, someone whispered in my ear, and then disappeared into the dream.

The cat raised its head and saw a goddess sitting on the treetops in the distance.

Her complexion was extremely pale, her eyes were closed, and her expression was peaceful and solemn.Her long black hair fell on her shoulders, and she was wearing a robe woven from the undead.

Her face is very beautiful, and she looks like the Queen of Hades.

"Talia!" Cat's heart moved, "No wonder I didn't find her."

"I have absorbed a lot of wisdom and divine power, and my senses are extremely sharp, but Taliyah is the goddess of rest, which represents the peace of the deceased after death. She is the most powerful deity in terms of silence and elimination of traces."

Taliyah has been sleeping since her birth, always sleeping in a coffin, carried by Zagreos.

Until recently, Hades created the source of divine power for her to wake up.

Taliyah jumped down from the tree and stood in front of the cat.

That feeling is extremely strange.Taliyah was right in front of the cat, but the cat always ignored her involuntarily and couldn't see her, as if she really didn't exist.

Taliyah is not invisible, she is extremely difficult to detect and realize.

"Sister, adjust your power, meow. I always lose sight of you all of a sudden, and I feel very uncomfortable, meow."

"Pa." Taliyah snapped her fingers, and her power of rest and tranquility weakened a bit.

She lowered her body, picked up the cat, and stroked the cat's neck. Her hands were as light as if they didn't exist.

"Sister is so stupid. Brother, are you also so stupid?" Taliyah said.

Zagreos is the eldest brother, and Taliyah is the second sister.Melinoe is the third sister, and Cat is the youngest and fourth.

"What do you mean?" the cat said.

"If Melinoe is stupid, she shouldn't study the medicine of God's Fall."

"You are stupid. You know that the medicine of divine fall is so difficult, but you still want to study it."

Then she stretched out her hand, and resting divine power floated around her body. The divine power condensed into threads, wrapped around the medicine jar, and pulled it down in front of her.

"Have you felt it?" Taliyah said softly, "The medicine prepared by Lord Metis has character and life."

"The medicine of Divine Fall is divided into two parts, one is the main medicine and the other is the secondary medicine, just like the father and the son."

"Moreover, it is by no means an ordinary relationship between father and son. The son initially respects, admires, and relies on the father. Then he gradually develops doubts and resentment. Finally, he kills his father."

"The same goes for medicine. The slave medicine will initially follow the main medicine, then conflict with the main medicine, and finally, the slave medicine will take away all the power of the main medicine."

"Patricide...the main theme of Olympus." The cat thought to himself, "Even medicine is like this."

"Melinoe has always only considered the measurement of each formula, not the relationship between the main medicine and the secondary medicine. Is it so easy to give them character and life - Lord Metis's formula?" This..." The cat flicked its tail, "Sister, how do you know?"

"Why do you think I'm sleeping?" Taliya still had her eyes closed, her face expressionless, "When my consciousness was just born, when I was still in the body of the Queen of the Underworld, I saw the sky full of netherworld fire, skeletons and horses. The chariot flew from the horizon, and the pale king stood above it."

“The Father commanded me to think about this—and to give me a long rest—and I have thought about it in my rest for so long.”

"It turns out that Hades was already prepared!" Yang Qi's heart moved, "Hades didn't let Taliya wake up because he felt sorry for her!"

"It was Hades who let Taliyah sleep for a long time to think about this problem!"

"I finally figured it out - so my father revived me."

"Next, I'll leave it to you." Taliyah smiled, "I'm not interested in immersing myself in grass blades and medicine jars."

Then, Taliyah disappeared in front of the cat.

"Wait, sister!" The cat knew that Taliyah was still here, but he couldn't see it.

"Sister, please give me some divine power."

Cat's heart was spinning. He really envied Taliyah's powerful invisibility ability.

That essentially doesn't mean making yourself invisible, but making yourself invisible to other beings.

If you can obtain this kind of divine power, it will be very convenient for both investigation and combat.

Cat was originally thinking about using some strategy to please her, or making a deal with Taliyah to get her to give her divine power.

But Taliyah is his sister...she seems to be pretty good to him.

Just ask directly.

Just ask for it!Maybe just give it.

Suddenly a small finger appeared in front of the cat. The finger tapped on the cat's forehead and then disappeared.

An extremely strange divine power circulates in the cat's body and merges into the source of divine power.

The cat suddenly felt that everything was quiet, as if he no longer existed.

After a long time, the cat opened his eyes, and he absorbed Taliyah's power of rest.

A small grass appeared in the source of divine power.This grass is bright red, very bright, but somehow it is difficult to attract attention.

Yang Qi named the grass "The Grass No One Knows".

Buzz... That bright red grass appeared above the cat's head, right next to Xiao Minghou, and Xiao Minghou didn't even notice it.

The cat looked around and saw a Hades rabbit on the grass in front of him, eating the Hades grass.

"Meow~!!" He roared angrily, but the rabbit didn't respond.

Brush - the cat raised its paw, waved it, and brought out a gust of wind, blowing towards Hades. The grass rustled loudly, and Hades was almost blown away.

But after Pluto Rabbit stabilized his body, he continued to eat grass.

The cat ran forward, without any cover-up of his figure and voice, and came to Pluto Rabbit.Pluto Rabbit still didn't respond.

"Meow!" The cat showed its claws and scratched hard at Pluto Rabbit's forehead, stopping at the last inch.

Pluto Rabbit didn't notice.

"Sure enough...haha! It completely ignored me!"

"Telia's magical power is so useful!!"

"Next time I see her, I will shamelessly ask her for it again. Don't be embarrassed, just ask for it!"

"If my brother wants something, will my sister not give it to me?!"

"Hahaha!"

The cat was extremely happy, and then he mobilized his magical power to condense his joy into gems and vomited it on the ground to restore his peace of mind.

"Meow~~~!" The cat raised its paws, and the whole garden rumbled. Then, countless divine flowers and plants flew over and flew around the cat.

The sound of clear springs flowing was heard all around. The cat opened its third eye, mobilized its wisdom and power, and carefully stared at the sacred flowers and herbs to feel their essence.

After a long time.

"There are more fountains of the abyss."

"The fruit of the Ten Thousand Mirrors has been reduced to three thousand."

"The fruits of morning glow, morning dew, and sunset are reduced by one-third respectively."

"Then……"

The cat quickly saw clearly the essence of the many divine flowers and herbs, and felt countless firelights rapidly passing through his brain. He felt joy in his heart from time to time, as if everything suddenly became clear.

"Okay...!" The cat's eyes were extremely bright, and he felt a sweet taste in his mouth, and soft divine music sounded in his ears.

"If these are combined together, it can become a medicine!"

"We still lack the main medicine...that is, the medicine that will be killed and devoured."

"Um……"

The cat was completely immersed in it and unconsciously forgot that he existed.There was a splashing sound, and streams of clear water flowed from his furry paws.

After a long time, the cat was shocked and woke up from its highly condensed mind.

He thought for a long time and thought deeply, and with the help of the power of wisdom, he made great progress.But at the last step, I still got stuck.

"The main medicine still lacks the formula..." the cat thought in his mind.

The main medicine should be like his father and have a personality.

But with so many characters, what character should be given to the main drug?

"I'm so tired, meow. Why don't you take a break and think about it later."

Then, the cat blinked, and he saw a clear pool of water in front of him, emitting a slight fragrance.

"Is this..." Cat walked forward and looked at the reflection in the shallow pool, "Is this flowing from my body?"

The cat's paws are wet.

"Yes... I have seen the source of Metis' divine power. The source of her divine power is called the Fountain of Wisdom, which is spring water."

"That's it. Using the power of wisdom, when you are very focused, spring water will gush out."

"Metis is at an extremely high level, so her fountain of wisdom can exist for a long time and becomes the source of her divine power."

The cat stared at the spring, which was slowly drying up.

Then, three shadows appeared inside.The shadows flowed, gradually solidified, and gradually became clearer.

"What?!" The cat opened his eyes wide.

Those are three gods.

They were dressed in gray robes and sat around a campfire.

The bonfire was not wood, but round heads with distorted and desperate expressions, burnt black.

There was a huge black pot floating above the bonfire, and something was boiling in it.

Three goddesses, one with sharp nails for hair.She grabbed an arm in her hand, bit her nails off, and stuck them to her hair.

A goddess's hair is bloody intestines, still slowly squirming.

The third goddess holds a nymph in her hand.The nymph's expression was extremely twisted and horrifying, she screamed crazily, and then died.

The fear that Nymph felt before her death was condensed into a strand of black hair, which was attached to her head by the goddess.

Their faces are smooth and featureless, with only a turned-up nose.

Suddenly, the goddess with nails and hair reached into the jar and pulled out an eye and a mouth.

She put her eyes and mouth on her face.

Her face is beautiful now, although she only has one eye.

She said something, then removed the eyes and mouth and handed them to the gut-haired goddess.

The gut-haired goddess put on her eyes and mouth and said something else.

……

All the springs dried up and the goddesses disappeared.

Yang Qi finally understood the three uses of the power of wisdom.

The first use is to condense emotions into entities.

The second purpose is to see the weaknesses of living beings.

Use three: when you fall into deep thinking, clear springs will flow from your body.In the spring water, hints for the answers will appear.

This is the answer to the main medicine - they are Graye, also known as the Gray Witch!
Their most famous feature is that they share one eye and one mouth.

Three sisters, each named Peverido, which means "evil"!
The name is Eni'o, which means "violent"!
The name is Denuo, which means "terrible"!
In mythological records, the great hero Perseus once deceived their eyes and mouths.

"That's it...the spring water has already told me the answer!"

"I need to give the main medicine three characters... these are the three characters: ruthless, violent, and terrifying!"
