Greece: Zeus made me the queen of heaven?

Chapter 196: Use My Audio Guide to Guide You
Outside the valley, a uneventful night was spent.

By the time the sun rose, Eros had changed his attire.

He took off his heavy robe and put on the linen gown and bracelets woven with flowers and plants that he was once very familiar with.

This was the outfit Eros used to wear most often, that of an ordinary, handsome shepherd boy.

But compared to his previous refreshing look, this time Eros deliberately used bangs to cover his eyes and nose, leaving only the outline of the lower half of his face exposed.

This is the limit. We must ensure that Hera will not find us, while also having enough room to maneuver in order to stabilize Argos.

Eros has a gift that Hermes does not have.

That is the charm bonus regardless of gender, species or mind.

Otherwise, they might be attacked by Argos before approaching it and fail.

Hermes brought a large number of sheep from somewhere, waved a whip and drove them into the hands of Eros.

"Well, this is just a small matter, I guess I did my part."

Hermes handed the whip to Eros with a smile, looked at his attire, and said in surprise.

"Your outfit is really nostalgic. Remember when Father God first got together with you, you were dressed like this, right?"

Eros' face was filled with black lines after hearing her words.

There is no need to talk specifically about the memories of those youthful and distant times.

Especially Hermes' words made Eros think of some of the things he had said before.

Alas, it’s full of dark history.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, let's get ready to go."

Hermes winked at Eros.

"Only you can do this. Use your invincible charm to keep Argos stable!"

Using charm on a sexless creature is a bit...

Eros felt a little strange, but thinking that he did have an affinity with non-human races, he stopped talking about it.

Go up and give it a try first. If you are unsure, just run away.

"Hypnos, are you ready?"

Looking at Hypnos behind him, in order to prevent her from working without putting in effort, Eros gave her a little education at night.

The details are insignificant, but I think Hypnos will be honest for a long time.

Hypnos, whose face turned slightly red, said nothing but nodded.

Then, Eros blocked her vision, rolled up the veil of night, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Whether from the perspective of vision, smell or touch, Hypnos completely disappeared from this world.

This is the value of the daughter of the Goddess of Night. Death and eternal sleep will always come quietly.

But Eros knew that Hypnos was lying on his back as planned.

After making all the preparations, Eros drove the flock into the valley.

Just like an ordinary shepherd, Eros strolled leisurely into the valley.

As soon as the sheep entered this fertile pasture, they started to show off their energy.

This time when they go back, they will all cry bitterly and say that they had mistakenly entered the green grassland when they were young.

However, Eros did not care about the flock of sheep. Instead, he raised his head and fixed his eyes on the tall figure on the cliff nearby.

The all-seeing giant Argus was sitting there, with a face without any extra features, only four eyes, staring at Eros.

Eros didn't care and just looked at it. As long as his disguise was not discovered by Hera, it would be fine.

And obviously, as Eros watched, new eyes grew on Argos' face, which meant that at this moment, Argos had a pair of eyes always watching Eros' every move.

But it didn't make any other movements, as if it had no reaction to Eros driving the flock of sheep into here.

After making sure that Argos did not move for the time being, Eros found an open space and sat down.

He was like a real shepherd, watching the sheep eating grass and taking out a shepherd's flute from his arms.

Eros was proficient in eighteen musical instruments, and was very good at playing all the other instruments, not to mention the shepherd's flute.

Putting the shepherd's flute to his lips, Eros played a clear and crisp sound.

The loud sound of shepherd's flute echoes in the valley, accompanied by scenes of pastures, sheep and streams.

It looks like a scene of a shepherd boy grazing his sheep in harmony with the nature, which is very harmonious.

No matter who comes here, they will praise the scenery as being so refreshing and pleasant without any sense of incongruity.

However, is it really just as it seems?

Eros glanced at Argos out of the corner of his eye while changing the tone of the music he played.

His sight and movements could not be hidden from Argos, but someone else's could.

Hypnos, wrapped in the veil of night and completely obliterating all traces, can.

At this moment, she blocked her vision and hid all her figures. The mechanism of Argos had been completely cracked.

But the question that remains is, how can Hypnos find Argos without using any means to sense Argos?

The answer is obvious, it lies in the sound of Eros's flute.

According to the secret code agreed upon early in the morning, Eros guided Hypnos through the rising and falling tones and different timbres.

The starting point is beside Eros, and the signal for the start is the sound of the flute.

Taking Eros as the starting point of the reference system, even he could not find Hypnos.

But it’s not a big problem, as all good chess players can play blind chess.

As long as Hypnos strictly follows the agreed rules, Eros will naturally be able to calculate her location.

This requires a little bit of trust and cooperation, but fortunately Eros is never stingy with his trust in others.

As for the coordination, it all depends on how Hypnos executes it.

Out of caution, each of Eros's instructions was relatively short.

Fully demonstrating what micro-management is, Hypnos moved two steps to the right and then three steps forward.

However, just when everything was going smoothly according to plan, Argos, who was sitting on the top of the mountain, suddenly made a move.

It stood up its tall body, like a hill blocking the sunlight and casting a shadow.

Eros frowned and changed his tone, causing Hypnos to stop temporarily.

Could it be that despite such preparations, Argos still noticed something?
The black shadow gradually covered Eros. Argos stood in front of Eros, staring at him with four eyes at the same time.

Eros also stopped playing his shepherd's flute and secretly prepared himself to take action at any time.

Did it see its true self? Or did it use its keen senses to detect something was wrong?

One man and one giant were staring at each other.

It was not until a while later that Argos stretched out his hand to Eros, pointed at the shepherd's flute in his hand, and said in a muffled voice.

"continue."
