Chapter 672 Trap
The negotiations went smoothly. Perseus was as obedient as a three-year-old child frightened by a ghost story and was willing to take Blaze to find goat fur.

Considering that Perseus is the male form of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, the current cooperation might just be a trap set by the goddess of wisdom.

So Blaze did not let down his guard. In addition, he had to deal with the attacks of the two demonic undead from time to time. He even regretted not removing the petrification of Perseus or Athena in the beginning and it would have been easier for him to grope around on his own.

Perseus walked in front and led the way. He was silent at first, but perhaps because it was too quiet, and because he had recovered from the stranger's uncertain gender, he spoke.

"Do you know why I would rather give up my body as a god than become a man?"

"Because you think women's menstrual periods are difficult?"

Perseus paused and turned back expressionlessly, while Blaise spread his hands innocently.

"I'm just kidding. I don't think it's such a boring reason as the eldest son inheriting the throne. The next queen of our Giant Kingdom Alliance is the queen. The same is true for Arcadia. The new queen will ascend the throne."

"No, it's a more realistic and cruel reason. I should have been born as a man, but my father and grandfather both carried a fate that was like a curse."

"The son will be far better than his father."

"It's fate again. Can't you old guys escape this?" Blaze curled his lips. He was no longer surprised by this word that had become like a cliché.

"So what did your father do? He used his divine power to change your gender?"

"He ate my pregnant mother, and in order to survive, I completed the goddess's body and broke through his head to be born."

Perseus' tone was very calm, but what he said was horrifying and appalling.

"So Zeus is dead?"

"Breaking through his head won't kill him, it will just give him a headache."

"Hahaha...so Zeus won't have children from then on?" Blaze laughed awkwardly twice, he realized that he might have stepped on a landmine.

"No, he chose to attack a mortal. Even if the child born in this way has divine power and divine blood, his soul is still that of a mortal. He will never be able to surpass him as the king of the gods."

Perseus took a step forward and walked up the hillside. His body and face were blurred in the illusory sunlight.

"The goddess's body is good, but it cannot change the fact that it was a premature baby born in an incorrect way, so I chose to give up all rebirths."

"I became what I was supposed to be. My father gave me the opportunity for some unknown reason and gave me Aegis, asking me to cut off Medusa's head and complete the Aegis inheritance ceremony."

“But it’s a trap.”

Blazer nodded, agreeing with this statement. A man who could eat his pregnant wife would be capable of anything, let alone harming an ambitious daughter, or son.

But the snake shook its head.

"He gave you a chance, but you didn't seize it, you didn't control yourself, so you failed."

The snake's voice was very soft, but Perseus heard it. He turned his head as if he was hurt and screamed hysterically.

"That's a trap! It's a trap!"

"He didn't want anyone else to take the throne, so he set a trap and sealed me!"

Perseus became so excited that the goddess' soul even overlapped with her body. Such a big commotion naturally attracted two demonic spirits.

The two demon-bodied undeads roared and pounced towards him. Perseus, who was out of control, subconsciously glared at the demon-bodied undeads. Then his pupils suddenly shrank, and the gray color reflected in his eyes spread out to the surroundings.

The terrible petrification instantly turned Perseus into a stone statue.

Blaze was actually a little grateful to these two evil undead spirits as they arrived just in time.

To be honest, Perseus's condition just now was very similar to a situation mentioned by the stranger.

That means the guide's defense is broken, and he becomes a BOSS who needs to be fought.

This situation usually happens to guides with special abilities or special identities. The stranger will usually pretend to be a child to complete the task first, and then let the passerby break through the defense and become the BOSS.

One mission can get double the BOSS reward.

Just now Perseus showed the overlapping manifestation of a male body and a female soul, and it was obvious that he was out of control and was about to go crazy.

If the demonic undead had not arrived in time and sealed Perseus, an emergency battle would have probably begun.

If possible, Blaze didn't want to cause any trouble, so it was better for Perseus to remain petrified like this.

Two demon-bodied undead spirits roared and rushed over. Blaze turned around to deal with them. Amaterasu shot the sun arrow with her eyes closed and easily defeated the two undead spirits.

But the earth began to tremble again, and the headless body of Medusa was like an opened treasure chest of disaster, constantly releasing evil spirits.

"This is the heart of Zeus, and Medusa is the test that Zeus gave to Athena." The snake stood in front of the stone statue of Perseus, staring at the face that looked heroic but hysterical because of the expression, and muttered to himself.

"If you cut off Medusa's head, you can have the throne, but cutting off an innocent person's head for the throne seems crazy and evil, so Medusa is an evil monster living on a lost island that no one knows about."

"At this point, I wouldn't be surprised even if you told me that Zeus dug out his heart and turned it into an island to test Athena." Blaze looked at Perseus, who was frozen in madness, with displeasure. The throne was so charming that just looking at it would release the malice in his heart.

"Is that so? This is really an island made from Zeus' heart."

Blaze realizes the truth about the island.

This is the contradictory heart of Zeus. Medusa represents the right to sit on the throne, while Zeus' greed for the throne turned into the demon body and ghost that appeared after Medusa's death.

If Medusa was a harmless and innocent monster, then Athena, the goddess of wisdom, would be able to easily see the drawbacks.

But as the snake says, it's too convenient that this is an evil monster living on a lost island that no one knows about.

This is a good reason to take action, and a very tempting step.

Athena cut off Medusa's head without a second thought for the throne, and the undead spirit inside was released, constantly chasing Athena.

The demon body not only symbolizes that the old king who was driven off the throne would cling to her and be entangled, but also symbolizes that Athena's own demon body has been released.

Blaze could imagine what kind of crazy smile would appear on Perseus' face when he cut off Medusa's head and ran away holding it.

And his or her ending was the same as that of any king driven by desire, killed by his or her own demonic body.
