Greek Mythology: Lord of the Underworld

Chapter 71, Banquet

Now the situation was reversed, Metis no longer helped Zeus.

But Hades, there is another more important thing to deal with now.

He turned over his hand, and ancient pillar stones appeared, exuding a terrifying and evil aura. There were 72 pillars in total, which were gifts from the two original gods of night and darkness.

The 72 sacred pillar stones quickly flew away from Hades's hands and returned to their original shape. They were as tall as two people and fell to the ground one by one, making a heavy sound and being arranged neatly.

The 72 Pillars of God Stone can summon Solomon's 72 Pillars of Demon Gods. With a thought from Hades, each of the stone pillars emitted a hazy white light, and then the top of the stone pillars sent out a stream of attraction force towards the sky, heading towards different directions in the underworld.

Soon, under the summons of Hades, the Demon God returned to his place, was summoned, and entered the 72 Pillar Divine Stones.

"See my king!"

One by one, demon gods appeared in front of the Pillar Stone, kneeling down on one knee facing Hades.

But it’s not all there yet…

Hades noticed that among the 72 pillar stones, two pillar stones were still emitting hazy white light, and the other pillar stones had returned to calm, which meant that there were still two demon gods who had not appeared.

These two demon gods are resisting the summons of the Pillar God Stone.

They are Asmode, the 32nd Demon God Pillar, and Beelzebub, the leader of Solomon's 72 Demon God Pillars and the first Demon God Pillar.

It is worth mentioning that they are both the demon god Solomon and one of the seven deadly sins, Asmodeus, who represents lust, and Beelzebub, who represents gluttony.

Obviously, this is not an accident, but premeditated.

Many forces in the underworld have been dispersed, and there are many powerful gods in the underworld, but not every god surrenders to Hades. You must know that this is the underworld where the weak eat the strong and the strong are respected!

To unify all the forces in the underworld and conquer all the gods in the underworld, this requires a process, and it cannot be completed by taking back the power of Hades.

Relying only on authority, the other party will always surrender to authority only. If the face is surrendered, the heart will not be surrendered.

What's more, the authority of Pluto is still suppressed by the authority of the God King, and he has lost his unique power and position in the underworld.

This is also the reason why Asmode and Beelzebub did not come, but they alone cannot resist the summons of the Pillar Stone.

At this time, a calm voice came from the distant sky: "Hades, Asmodeus and Beelzebub are attending a banquet. It is inconvenient to feel your summons. I believe you will not mind, right, Pluto?" "

The words were obviously sarcastic: "Of course, if you, Hades, as the King of Hades, are willing to come to this banquet, we will welcome you."

Banquets are one of the ways for the gods to enjoy themselves in the world of Chaos. As a way of gathering for public enjoyment, a group of gods gather together to drink delicious juices, taste fresh fruits, chat about interesting things, and look at the beautiful The goddess dances gracefully there, and sometimes when she gets interested, she will start a "war" among the gods.

New gods began to be born here, and the banquet promoted the prosperity of the world of Khaos.

Banquets happen almost once or twice every once in a while, and a banquet lasts for several months. During this period, the male gods who have a deep relationship with the goddess do not forget to tell the host of the banquet with laughter and laughter, next time Be sure to invite yourself to the party as well.

And he also emphasized that next time, remember to replace it with a new batch of goddesses who have not been invited.

Of course, this is not all the case.

"Want to go, Hades?"

Demeter asked with a smile.

Hades nodded. This was the underworld. Faced with the invitation, he had no reason not to go. He just happened to take advantage of this opportunity to completely conquer the gods of the underworld. Solomon's remaining 70 demon gods stood up and looked at Hades leaving, with different expressions, some playful, some disdainful, some sarcastic, some curious and calm...

They were all forcibly summoned by the Pillar God Stone.

When they arrived at the palace where the voice came from, Hades was followed by a group of gods. For those who didn't know, they probably thought he was here to overturn the table and destroy the place.

But only Hades knew that none of the 70 summoned Demon Gods of Solomon convinced him from the bottom of his heart. Even if there was a conflict later, they would only do their job but not contribute.

In addition to Phoenix, the 37th Pillar Demon God is also the first demon god Hades encountered. He also has another name called [Phoenix]

Apart from her, the only ones who can really stand by his side are probably Hestia, Demeter, and Hera, as well as Aunt Themis, the goddess of justice, Metis, the goddess of wisdom, and the twisted dog. The charming snake girl Medusa walked over with her waist small.

There are also many gods in the gorgeous palace in front of them, including Manzhushahua and the Black Queen who were familiar to Hades and his three sisters when they came to the underworld last time.

Seeing Hades entering the palace, Manzhushahua and the Black Queen smiled, raised their glasses to him, and drank the whole drink.

Hades nodded slightly in response.

Then, he set his sights on the owner of this palace, the god sitting on the chief throne.

He is a young male god wearing a black divine robe, with a fair and handsome appearance. His eyes are extremely arrogant, and he despises everything. He sits condescendingly on the throne, looking at Hades in front of him under the steps. care.

One of the Seven Deadly Sins, Lucifer represents the sin of pride.

On the banquet seats on his left and right sides were the remaining seven deadly sins.

Representing the sin of jealousy: Leviathan.

Representing the sin of wrath: Samael.

Representing the sin of laziness: Belphegor.

Represents the sin of greed: mammon.

Representing the sin of gluttony: Beelzebub.

Representing the sin of lust: Asmodeus.

Hades's faint eyes lightly swept over the gods transformed from the seven deadly sins, and paused briefly on Beelzebub, who represented the sin of gluttony, and Asmodeus, who represented the sin of lust.

Beelzebub smiled slightly and raised his glass towards him to show respect, while Asmode shuddered and his body visibly trembled.

"Are you the king conceived by the will of the underworld?"

Samael was the first to speak, breaking the wonderfully silent atmosphere at the scene. As a sin of anger, his temper was undoubtedly the hottest among the gods at the scene, and he could ignite at a moment's notice.

He is also the first to be unable to hold back. This is a characteristic brought to him by his position of authority. As a sin of wrath, Samael never hides whoever is unhappy with him and likes to point it out directly to his face.

He said casually: "It doesn't look like much. Is a lamb worthy of being the leader of a pack of wolves?"

"Try?"

Hades's eyes were as calm and indifferent as ever, and he did not feel angry because of the thorn in Samael's words. He calmly uttered two words from his mouth.
