Intruders of the Moon World

"..."

Diana pursed her lips.

"[Hera Stone Pillar]!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"So it's this goddess... Hahaha, interesting, interesting."

The laughter stopped, and a wise light flashed in the old man's faint green pupils.

"This kind of breath, and the strange fluctuations I feel, plus you are so nervous as the descendants of the Earth Goddess... This sacred tool is not a 'useless thing', but a powerful tool for the Earth Mother. It is a vital existence for God.

Hmm, let me guess... Judging from the cryptic aura, it's [Snake], right?

Could it be that the sacred tool here is the seal of the [Snake] of the Earth Goddess Hera? "

Diana's breath was stagnant, her hands tightly grasped the skirt, and her cute baby face became extremely nervous.

"...Yes, you guessed right, the [Hera Stone Pillar] is the [Snake] of the Goddess Hera. It was moved to Naples and guarded."

After a pause, Diana took a deep breath, her body trembling stopped, and she mustered up her courage to speak.

"My lord, forgive me.

This artifact is only of special significance to the Earth Mother Goddess and the witches who serve the goddess. Even though the [Snake] is sealed, it cannot be used by humans—even the king who kills the gods.

The witches just enshrined it as an "idol", and they couldn't use it effectively... Otherwise, the witches who possessed sacred tools would not have been expelled and killed in ancient times.

Therefore, it should be just an ordinary stone in your eyes, please make an exception and don’t go—”

"Shut up, descendant of the witch!"

The Marquis of Vauban had a cold tone.

"Whether it has value is for me to judge, don't use these words to try to influence my choice.

I'll let you off this time, it's my mercy, but I won't give you another chance next time—see your identity clearly, witch. "

Diane was trembling and speechless, she didn't open her mouth to defend herself, but followed Vauban silently.

If godslayers could be manipulated by words, then humans would not be so afraid of them.

In front of such a terrifying and ruthless demon king like Vauban, it is very lucky for him to be able to save a small life. As for protecting [Hera Stone Pillar]...it is really unrealistic.

Now, all she can do is endure in silence.

Finally, after passing through the long tunnel and stepping over a section of stone steps, Vauban and Diana stood on the flat ground, which was the deepest part of the underground temple.

This is an altar. Although it looks like a relatively spacious basement, it does have the function of being used as an altar.

It can be seen that no one usually comes here, and the breath of human life cannot be felt in the cold air.But it is true, originally this place was the secret gathering place of the witches, and it has been passed down to the present, even those who know of its existence, usually will not come if there is nothing to do.

Under the thin floating dust, a huge dragon and snake pattern was engraved on the ground.

Mixed with ancient characters and symbols of unknown meaning, it is a large-scale magic circle that is completely different from the existing magic system based on the connection of earth veins.

Not to mention the divine tools, the well-preserved ancient magic circle alone is also of great value.

Compared with the murals in the tunnel, some parts of these patterns give people the feeling that they are more recent in terms of age.It should be the seal that the [Hera Stone Pillar] was moved to later, and the witch's ancestors added the seal on the basis of the defensive barrier.

In fact, the Marquis of Vauban can indeed feel the power of confinement from these patterns, as if they are suppressing the aura of the stone pillar and preventing its sacred power from leaking out.

But...Of course, the moment the old man stepped on it, the magic circle became invalid.

"Oh, is this the sacred tool of the Earth Goddess [Hera]? It's really inconspicuous."

Vauban observed with great interest the stone pillar standing in the center of the magic circle.

It was a long column covered in pitch black, about two meters high, with carvings of big snakes entrenched on the rough surface, and the simple and simple shape revealed a boundless artistic conception.

Although there is nothing magical about it from any angle, it has an inexplicable attraction that makes people unable to help but pay attention to it.

The Marquis grinned, revealing a sadistic smile: I felt a very powerful wave of spell power in this stone pillar, and the power contained within it was already at a level that even a godslayer could not ignore.

"Looks like it's the real thing..."

Hera, a very ancient goddess of the earth.

In Greek mythology, she was the wife of Zeus, the god king - this is the most widely circulated version.

But this is not Hera's original posture, but the result of the myth being distorted.

Because of its relatively complete story clues and the secondary creations of many writers, Greek mythology has a special status in the history of world mythology (the story is complete, dramatic, and can be adapted at will, so you don’t have to worry about being troubled by believers).

She, like Athena, was a god elsewhere and was later transplanted into Greek mythology.

Originating in the Peloponnese Peninsula, she was the goddess of the earth at that time. Like most primitive earth goddesses, she was in charge of functions such as harvest and pregnancy, and she was a goddess with a very high status.

But just like Athena, who was originally the Queen of the Trinity, Hera's status in mythology plummeted after the matrilineal society was replaced by the patriarchal.

But she is not like Athena who kept a part of the independence of the godhead, but like the stripped Metis, she became the wife of Zeus, that is, the "accessory of the male god"

The existence of the [Hera Stone Pillar] is actually the same as the [Gorgon Stone], and the [Snake] belonging to the Earth Goddess Hera is hidden inside.

In other words, if Hera descends, absorbing this stone pillar can change back to the queen's posture.

However, before that, this rare artifact was first found by the terrifying Demon King.

"If it's this, maybe it's really possible."

Vauban murmured, reaching out to touch the pillar, but no sooner had his fingertips touched the surface than a green gleam flicked it away.

It's not very strong for a godslayer, if it's serious, Vauban can ignore the light and touch the stone pillar even in human form.But he just gives up with a frown: there's no point in doing that either.

I originally thought that I could find a way to use it through my various abilities, but now it seems that it won't work.

"It seems that if you want to use it to lure Hera, you need some preparation."

Vauban's words made Diana secretly say "Sure enough", and at the same time she couldn't help worrying.

The goal of this ancient demon king is undoubtedly to use the divine tool to summon Hera, who will not follow, and then kill the mother goddess of the earth!

There is no need to guess at all, for the godslayers, the pursuit of fighting is the greatest interest.

Not to mention that Vauban has lived for more than two centuries, and now he can feel the excitement and the real feeling of "alive", probably only eating and fighting.

And compared to the weak gods, it is the ancient and powerful goddess like Hera that makes him more excited.

In order to make the battle more exciting, simply hand over the stone pillar to Hera and let her return to her original posture-although it sounds crazy, Godslayer is likely to do similar things.

"Hi, little girl."

Vauban turned to Diana and said: "You are the descendant of the witch who has guarded the stone pillar for generations, so can you activate this stone pillar and use it to attract the God of Disobedience?"

In the green pupils like a lone wolf, there is an undeniable will.Although it was a question, Diana knew that the other party would not accept an answer like "no".

"This..." Under the pressure of those eyes, Diana trembled all over.

"Although it's the same with violent means, it's still a rare divine tool anyway. It would be a pity for me to destroy it just like that."

Vauban smiled lightly, and said like an old gentleman: "If possible, I still hope to use a more 'civilized' method—after all, this stone pillar may come in handy."

Artifacts are nearly indestructible - that's for humans.But for supernatural beings like Godslayer and God of Disobedience, it is impossible to look at them with ordinary eyes, even if they have the power to deal with this situation, it is not surprising.

Just when Diana was hesitating and Vauban gradually lost his patience, a childish voice sounded in the space, which surprised them both.

"Ah, it seems that you have encountered some small troubles, Mr. Marquis. If you don't dislike it, can I let this concubine help you?"

In the shadow of the floor, the figure of a young girl slowly "rises".

"No way, there is a knot here—uh!"

Just as Diana was about to exclaim, she suddenly remembered that the barrier here was almost completely destroyed by the Marquis of Vauban.

Of course, even if the enchantment still exists, it probably won't be able to stop this one, because she is the king of witches, how can ancient witches' spells stop her?

"Huh~"

Vauban narrowed his eyes: "Are you... the ancestor of God?"

"I have seen His Excellency the Marquis."

Guinevere held the skirt and bowed her body.

"I'm Guinevere, as you can see, I'm a god ancestor and the king of witches."

"The Witch King? Ha!"

Vauban opened his mouth and showed a slightly ferocious smile: "So, you have a way to activate this magical tool."

"Of course." Guinevere smiled obediently, "And it's more than that."

"I came to Naples this time with my own purpose, and I never thought that I would be so lucky to meet Lord Vauban.

I am happy to serve you, and——will bring you a stronger opponent than the goddess summoned by this magic tool! "

"Ah......"

Vauban looked at the god ancestor in the form of a young girl with cruel eyes.

"You actually want to use me? It's really bold... But before my power kills you, it's good to hear how far you can confuse me."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Naples, also known as "Naples", is located in southern Italy and is the third largest city in Italy after Rome and Milan.

The city has a long history, dating back to the seventh century BC, when the land was still ruled by the Roman Empire.

It is worth mentioning that this is also a very famous tourist city with beautiful and picturesque scenery.

And to its east, there is a very magnificent volcano-Vesuvius.

If you come here for sightseeing, it's really a good place, because Naples has a world-famous night view, which makes people linger.

But Ye Qing and his group didn't come here for this - or not only for this.

The reason was information from a witch under the [Bronze Black Cross] to Liliana.

The sacred tool sealed in a ruin somewhere underground in this city, the symbol of the ancient earth goddess Hera, was originally a sacred object protected by the witch of Naples.
