Chapter 567
Xu Jing withdrew his gaze involuntarily. He hadn't exerted his full strength in the previous attack.

Moreover, he also felt that he could control the power of the petrification attack. He even felt that this ability had not yet reached its limit, and there was room for improvement.

"system."

Xu Jing summoned the system again, looked at the remaining more than 90 origin points, and silently recited the promotion again without hesitation.

Sure enough, following his decision, the system interface trembled slightly, and the value of the source points displayed on it jumped up suddenly.

A large amount of original energy was integrated into his whole body, a large part of it was integrated into the blood, and the other part gathered in the back.

This time, apart from the blood boiling, Xu Jing suddenly felt a sharp pain and itching on both sides of the entire spine on his back, as if something was about to grow out.

He penetrated deeply into his body and looked over, only to see bones, nerves and blood vessels extending from both sides of the entire spine, gradually forming the shape of a pair of huge wings.

Poof~!

As the outer skin and scales split open, a pair of slightly slender wings stretched out.

The pair of wings were a little shrunken and incomplete when they first came out, but as the source point continued to blend in, they gradually opened up, covering Xu Jing's entire back.

Then scales grew on the wings, and the scales were all golden in color, neatly arranged.

clap clap ~!

As soon as Xu Jing thought about it, the wings on his back began to flap. At the same time, bursts of sacred golden light radiated from the wings and enveloped his lower body.

In an instant, under the shining golden light, his huge snake body shrank rapidly, and in an instant it turned into two slender legs covered with scales and full of metallic texture.

"Wow!"

Xu Jing himself didn't expect such a situation to happen, so he couldn't help but marvel, and after he floated up, he looked at his appearance again.

After the second strengthening, his whole body, even his face, was covered with fine scales.

However, these scales not only did not make Xu Jing hideous and ugly, but because of the strange arrangement, they looked very beautiful. With the golden wings on his back and the long bow straddling his hands, the whole person was majestic, like a Valkyrie. generally.

sizzle~!

The snake hair on his head squirmed, and the poisonous snakes rubbed against his face affectionately, hissing excitedly.

Scale body and golden wings, this time the strengthening will end soon, and finally reached the limit of strengthening.

Xu Jing flew back and forth in a circle, even in a narrow place, he was able to shuttle swiftly.

Then he fell to the ground and folded his wings, and in the next moment his long legs took on the form of a giant snake again.

During this process, while his agility was weakening, the strength in his body was constantly increasing.

"interesting."

Xu Jing was also surprised by the changes in himself.

But he just thought about his own background, so he didn't find it strange.

Medusa's father is Phorcus.

And Phorcus, the son of Gaia, the mother of the earth, and Pontus, and Cronus, the father of the three Zeus brothers, can be regarded as half-brothers.

Strictly speaking, the three brothers Medusa and Zeus exist in the same generation and share a common grandmother, that is, the mother of the gods and the primitive god Gaia.

Therefore, the potential of Medusa's bloodline is not inferior to that of Zeus and the others. It belongs to Gaia's direct bloodline, but it has not been developed before.

"Perhaps this is not the limit of strengthening, it's just that my source points are not enough."

Xu Jing glanced at the remaining more than 30 origin points, and he knew it clearly.

All the gods are descendants of Gaia. She was born in chaos and gave birth to two sons, Uranus, the god of the sky, and Pontus, the god of the sea, and a daughter, Uriah, the god of the mountains.

Gaia was combined with her two sons separately, and then there were gods such as Titans, so she is the beginning of everything.

It has to be said that the blood of these natural gods is powerful. Even if they did not have the power of faith, the former Titans and other gods were still terrifying existences that destroyed the world.

Xu Jing could imagine that if he had enough origin points, he might not be able to reach the level of Gaia, but he might not be able to strengthen his bloodline to the level of Titan.

"But I may not be weaker than the gods now."

He turned his head, and his eyes moved accordingly. The fixed stone buildings did not change, but the flames and lingering smoke that spewed out from the ground appeared to be slow and stagnant as his eyes watched.

This was the effect of Xu Jing's gaze without using his abilities.

Originally, this petrification ability came from Athena's curse, but now it has become an introduction to activate the corresponding root in his blood.

Even if Athena was in person, the other party would definitely not be able to deprive him of his ability by lifting the curse.

Xu Jing closed the system interface, wandered around in the lair, familiarizing himself with the environment.

His lair is actually a prison, located on the river Styx at the edge of the underworld.

The water of the Styx River is extremely corrosive, and the original Medusa was unable to leave here through the Styx River.

Now, although Xu Jing has wings to fly across, but he is not clear about the external landscape and other conditions, it is better to wait here patiently for Perseus to arrive.

And a hundred miles away from the entrance of the underworld, not too far from where he was, two giant scorpions about ten meters long crawled to the edge of a ruin.

On the backs of these two giant scorpions, there is a compartment as spacious as a small house. In each compartment, a group of people wearing armor, swords and long bows are sitting on it.

These people, led by Perseus, came to find a way to deal with the sea monster in order to save Argos.

Driving the giant scorpion forward was a strange human being whose whole body was wrapped in clothes and bandages, like a mummy, only showing two eyes like dead fish.

And these people come from the desert, known as the Evil Spirit Race, they were originally human, but after being injured in battle, they will replace their limbs with black magic, which will make them lose the pain, but they can also live longer, the most common Evil spirits have a lifespan of hundreds of years.

When Perseus and others were on the road, they were attacked by a mysterious man sent by Hades. During the pursuit, the other party's blood with Hades' power fell into the desert, awakening the monsters lurking in the desert. The giant scorpion was attacked.

Fortunately, these giant scorpions are tamed beasts raised by the evil spirits. They have been waiting for someone who can save them from the gods, so after discovering and confirming the identity of Perseus, the evil spirits resolutely joined the team.

At this moment, after two days of continuous traveling, their team finally arrived at the place where the legendary Styx Witch was.

The Styx Witch, who naturally lives near the Styx.

But all this time, even if humans knew their location, no one could find them.

Fortunately, there was another demigod Aio in their team, who knew how to find them and knew everything about them.

There are three Stygian witches. They were born to Phorcys and Ceto, and were half-sisters of Medusa.

But the witches of Styx are not as beautiful as Medusa. As the children of Phorcus, they are ugly like most brothers and sisters, like monsters, and they only have one eye and one tooth in total. Three people take turns.

However, they have unique abilities. They are connected with each other, and they can feel each other's thoughts. The other strange eye, in their hands, can see some fragments of the future, and can also discover some things that even certain gods have. Do not know the secret.

"where is this place?"

The person who asked the question was a young warrior with an immature face. He looked around at the ruins around him curiously, because it could be seen from the appearance of the ruins in front of him that they did not look like they were formed naturally.

The people from the Evil Spirit Tribe controlled the giant scorpion to stop and lowered their bodies, signaling for everyone above to get down.

After everyone came down, another experienced warrior introduced: "This is the Styx Garden, the place where the Kraken once defeated the Titans."

"If we fail, Argos will also become like this." Another old-faced but strong and strong warrior next to him greeted, "Let's go, every step we take here is against the gods." a humiliation."

Everyone began to climb towards the top of the ruins. The Styx witch they were looking for was said to live there.

At the top of the ruins is a unique mountain, which looks like an arm standing on the ground, with the top in the shape of an open palm.

It was already dark at this time, and Perseus led the crowd to the top of the mountain holding torches.

According to Aio's instructions, he personally threw a torch into a bottomless pool of white smoke in the center.

boom!
The next moment, like gasoline being ignited, a blazing flame burst out of the pool and started burning.

"have a guest?"

"Who is it?"

"Eyes, show me."

As soon as the flames started to burn, three hoarse voices, like those of an old woman, sounded continuously.

Immediately afterwards, the surrounding air vibrated slightly, and three women with disheveled hair, stooped bodies, eyeless faces, and terrifying faces appeared in front of Perseus and the others out of thin air.

The woman walking in the front moved her palm forward, holding a pale eye the size of an egg in her palm, swinging it back and forth, and approached Perseus.

"Who? Let me see, who are you?"

If they hadn't sensed Perseus' extraordinary performance, the Styx Witches wouldn't have shown up at all. They kept sniffing, as if they smelled something delicious.

Perseus was a little uneasy, and drew out his long sword with a look of vigilance on his face. Other warriors also drew out their weapons one after another, and made defensive gestures.

Aio quickly shouted: "Perseus, don't!"

Perseus tried his best to maintain his composure, sheathed his sword, and said to the approaching Styx witch, "We're not here to fight, we just want to ask you a question..."

"It turned out to be Perseus." Hearing Aio's words, the Witch of Styx seemed to have been reminded, and immediately saw some pictures in the future, and knew the purpose of these people. "Son of Zeus, no wonder he is so energetic."

"Perseus, come closer!"

"Come closer."

"God's blood!"

"The flesh and blood of God!"

Three Stygian witches gathered around Perseus greedily, and finally pressed close to him, licking their lips, eager to eat his flesh and blood.

"Witch, relax!"

The oldest warrior in the team, Zhuo Gula, raised his spear fearlessly and warned the witch.

"Roar~!"

One of the witches who was almost hanging on Perseus immediately turned around, roared angrily at Zhuo Gula, and approached him.

After all, they are the descendants of Forcus, even if they are not good at fighting, their strength is not weak, even much higher than everyone present.

"Stay by my side, ladies." Perseus tried to appease the angry witch, and asked, "Who will answer my questions?"

"You want to know how to kill a siren?"

"Yes."

"It's useless. It's a waste of time. The sea monster is not afraid of any weapons, and it is not even a match for some gods."

"But there must be some weakness," interjected the young warrior in the line.

"Maybe..." The witches turned their heads and looked at the soldier with their eyes. "But knowledge needs to be paid."

"Sacrifice! Sacrifice!"

As soon as the words fell, two of the witches left Perseus's side in an instant, rushed towards the team behind him, and suddenly launched an attack, while the remaining witch took the opportunity to strangle Perseus' neck, trying to kill him. control.

They didn't want to let go of anyone present at all, they thought they were going to kill everyone in one go.

In fact, they did have such strength. In just a short moment, several experienced fighters were overturned to the ground and lost the power to resist for a while.

However, with his rich combat experience, Zhuo Gula managed to snatch the eye from the witch's hand when he was knocked down, and threw it to Perseus who broke away from the witch's control.

Perseus reacted quickly. After catching the eye, he avoided the witch's entanglement like a loach, ran to the edge of the cliff, stretched out the hand holding the eye, and shouted: "Stop, or I will throw it down!"

"Don't you dare, we can't see the answer without eyes!"

The witches had no choice but to give up, but they also threatened.

Perseus did not waver, and gritted his teeth: "Tell me the answer, the way to kill the siren!"

"There is a way, but it's impossible," said one of the witches.

Perseus didn't want to hear such words at all, and was about to throw away, which made the three witches nervous, and the other hurriedly said: "Medusa, the Gorgon, she can kill any flesh and blood with her eyes."

"Her prison is located on the river Styx at the edge of the underworld."

"Titan to Titan, she can definitely kill a siren."

Even though they were half-sisters, under the current circumstances, the witches did not hesitate to tell the truth about Medusa.

Everyone looked at each other, a little surprised, but Zhuo Gula remained awake and reminded: "But we can't control her."

The witches were a little anxious, thinking about how to answer.

But Perseus had an idea: "Then kill her and cut off her head."

The witches couldn't help but praised: "Smart boy, eyes, give us back your eyes quickly."

Perseus threw his eyes towards the pool not far away, causing the witches to run quickly and grope for them on the ground. Then he passed through the siege calmly, returned to the team, and led everyone down the mountain.

But at this moment, the witch who found the eyes suddenly shouted: "Wait, and, don't you want to know more?"

The tone of the speaking witch was full of ill intentions, and the other two witches also let out gleeful laughter.

"Perseus, don't listen to them."

Ai O persuaded, before going up the mountain, she reminded the other party, only ask what you want to know, and don't ask too much about others.

Perseus hesitated when he thought of Aio's advice, but he couldn't help being curious, turned his head and asked, "What?"

"tell him!"

"Your actions this time will not have good results."

"You're all going to die!"

"Perseus, son of Zeus, you too will die!"

"That's what the future looks like."

The witches spoke to each other, said more information, and kept sneering.

After hearing what they said, everyone's expressions became extremely ugly, and they were speechless. Even Perseus looked blank, and a trace of panic surged in his heart.

Along the way, Aio kept emphasizing to him that he was destined to be born to kill sea monsters. Later, even he himself believed it, but now he was confused by the witch's prophecy.

"Don't listen to them, this is a lie, let's go!"

Fortunately, Zhuo Gula calmed down, and immediately yelled loudly, which woke up everyone, and pulled Perseus, ignoring the words of the witch behind him, and led the team down the mountain quickly.

But after going down the mountain, when everyone was about to start again, because of what the witch said before, the warriors of the evil spirit tribe refused them to take the giant scorpion again, left the team directly, and returned to the way they came from.

These fighters learn black magic and believe in gods, but they want to get out of control, but they also believe in prophecy, so after knowing the ending, they directly choose to accept their fate.
