Greek Mythology: Lord of the Underworld

Chapter 20 020, Maintain due respect for the Goddess

Hades counted his harvest in detail and found a total of 20 golden apples, not counting the two he ate.

The effectiveness of the golden apple is only the first one eaten. If you eat it again, it will only be a taste. Hades has just verified this.

After thinking about it, Hades suddenly looked at Medusa and asked, "What happened to the Cyclops before?"

He should be locked up in the abyss of the underworld, not here.

Similarly, Metis also looked at Medusa, and she was also very curious about the Cyclops.

Medusa smiled slightly and explained: "That's right, that's not the real Cyclops. The real Cyclops is still imprisoned in the abyss as you think. It was made of clay by Gaia, the mother of the gods. of imitations.”

Hades nodded slightly, as he thought, it was just a replica, otherwise it would not have been so easy to be killed by him with a sword.

After figuring out the reason, the next step was to leave the island, but we certainly couldn't go out in such an obvious way. Cleos was still guarding outside.

Hades said: "Is there any other way to get rid of it?"

"Have."

Medusa glanced at him, nodded, and said, "Follow me."

Follow Medusa into the mist, and finally stop in front of a cave entrance.

Medusa probably also knew Hades's concerns, and smiled: "This is the secret passage left by the Goddess Gaia, which is connected to the earth itself. From here, we can reach the outside world directly without worrying about being discovered."

With that said, she took the lead and walked in. Hades looked back at the outside of the island, Cleos, if you are persistent, please stay outside forever!

I slipped away first.

Walking in the dark cave, Hades looked around curiously. The darkness did not bring any coldness. The place was still warm and tolerant.

He tentatively stretched out his hand to touch it, but before he could touch it, he was interrupted by Metis beside him: "You rude man, please maintain some respect for the Goddess!"

Hades glanced at him and ignored him. He put his hand on the stone wall, his eyes flashed slightly, and a ray of surprise quickly passed by. What surprised him was that the stone wall was also hot and not hard. It was very It's soft and will sink inward with just a touch of pressure.

It was very strange. Just when he was surprised, a faint "hum" came into his ears.

Hades immediately retracted his hand and looked around cautiously, only to find that there was no one there.

And the cooing sound from before also disappeared, as if it had never appeared.

"what happened?"

Medusa and Metis were confused and baffled by Hades' sudden vigilance.

Hades felt a hint of emotion coming from his palm, looked at the two women and asked, "Did you hear any strange sounds just now?"

"No."

Metis and Medusa looked at each other and shook their heads.

It seems I was the only one who heard it... Hades thought to himself.

Metis wondered: "What happened?"

"nothing."

Hades shook his head.

Metis and Medusa looked at him doubtfully and did not ask any more questions.

After this little drama, the three of them continued walking on the long and deep mountain road.

She didn't know how long she had been hiding, but a light finally appeared in front of her eyes. Medusa looked happy and finally reached the exit. She had been arranged to guard the Golden Apple Orchard from the moment she was born. She has always longed for the outside world and yearned for the freedom outside. and wonderful.

Now that I was finally going out, I suddenly felt a little excited.

Hades glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed the joy in the eyes of the charming beauty next to him. He lowered his eyes slightly, thoughtfully.

After exiting the cave, the scene in front of us suddenly became clear, a quiet dense forest. Next to the sea.

"You want to save someone?"

Walking out of the cave, Metis looked at Hades.

Hades nodded: "Yes."

Metis hesitated for a moment, then reminded him: "You can completely ignore the promise after eating the golden apple."

"I know."

Hades discovered this after eating the golden apple. He could completely ignore the backlash caused by his promise. He heard what Metis said and did not recommend him to fulfill his promise to save people, but he would not do so. Because he is Hades.

Metis saw that Hades was persistent and stopped trying to persuade him. He shrugged and said, "I said before that I have a way to help you. Are you going to listen now?"

Hades stopped walking and turned to look at Metis.

Metis smiled: "Come with me."

"Where?"

"My home is Poseidon Island."

……

Hades followed Metis across an ocean bridge. As soon as he arrived at the coral-covered Poseidon Island, he saw a man with long ocean-blue hair, a handsome face and a slender body.

"Hades?!"

The moment the other party saw him, he was also very surprised and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Poseidon."

Hades looked very calm.

"Yes, I am sincerely happy for you to see you are still alive, brother."

Poseidon came to his senses and respectfully called Hades his brother.

Hades nodded in response.

It seemed that he had long been aware of his brother's indifference, and Poseidon didn't care. He moved his eyes towards Hades. When he fell on Medusa, he couldn't help but stopped for a moment. His pupils trembled slightly, which he had never seen before. Such a beauty is simply the ultimate fusion of charm and wildness, a perfect fusion of the two.

She was so beautiful and seductive that Poseidon couldn't help but be stunned. Her exquisite figure and enchanting face all attracted him.

Medusa looked calm. She had had enough of this kind of gaze for a long time. Even if she stayed in the golden apple orchard, there were many gods who froze in place after seeing her profile, and some who saw her face. He simply forgot his fear and was turned to stone, and walked away peacefully and happily.

She had long been accustomed to such surprised and fascinated looks, but it was a surprise to Hades that after seeing her appearance for the first time, he was not surprised. His expression remained calm and calm, and he did not even linger for a moment.

It was completely different from the men who were stunned before. This was what surprised Medusa.

"Cough cough."

At this time, Metis coughed twice, indicating that Poseidon had come back to his senses. The latter smiled, his expression returned to normal, looked at Metis and said: "Goddess of Wisdom, I am also happy for you. Congratulations that you are safe. return."

Metis chuckled and said, "I didn't know the dangers in the golden apple orchard. I was able to come back safe and sound, thanks to Hades."

"Oh yes?"

Poseidon glanced at Hades in surprise. Is it because of his elder brother? If so, what terrifying level has his strength reached now?

"Let's go, brother. I believe that when my third brother sees you coming back, he will be as shocked and happy as I am now."

He smiled slightly, paused again, and looked at Metis out of some unknown thought, with an inexplicable smile on his lips: "You too, Metis, the goddess of wisdom, Zeus will be shocked when he sees you..."
