Rubik's Cube World

"Phew, I finally brought back the ancient trinity body. Now, foolish godslayer, just play with me." After a while, Athena, who had stabilized her own strength, looked at her again. Said Ito Cheng, whose power of the lord of the underworld counteracted the breath of death that erupted when she recovered.

"It's my pleasure." Ito Cheng said with a gentleman's salute.Then, he opened his mouth and chanted the glorious words, "Use my words skills to make the justice of the world manifest! These spells are powerful and eloquent. They are the swords of wisdom that call victory."

As soon as the voice fell, a huge brilliant weapon with Damascus as the original shape and exuding golden light appeared in the palm of Ito Cheng.

"Very good! Let's compete here, Godslayer!" Athena, whose ears were elongated like elves, said with a cheerful expression.

Immediately with a wave of his arm, dozens of owls flew out from the depths of the darkness in an instant, and at the same time, dozens of snakes that came out of nowhere gathered and crawled towards Ito Cheng.

"All evil things fear me! Unrighteous people with power cannot attack me——I am the strongest person who can break all obstacles!" Looking at the number of summoned beasts that numbered more than a hundred, completely Ito Cheng, who did not dodge, continued to sing his own words.

Almost instantly, the golden sword in Ito Cheng's hand flashed, and the approaching Athena's summoned beasts were all decapitated and turned back into dust again.

Because it was not a normal beast, the dead summoned beast did not leave any corpses at all.

"Heh... Sure enough, there is a wonderful weapon hidden. It can cut and cut - it should be a sword. The sword's speech, you really have taste." Athena, who was beheaded by the summoned beast, used her Said with peculiar wisdom.

"Then, the concubine will play with you again. Look at the trick!"

As Athena shouted, the originally hard ground of the artificial island below her suddenly produced a huge bulge, and then the front part of the bulge turned into a sickle-like shape, and then changed into a huge rock made of sand and stone. The snake, supporting Athena who slowly descended to the top of the stone snake's head, looked straight at Ito Cheng on the opposite side.

"Go, my sharp teeth. Crush the Godslayer into a pulp!" Athena ordered loudly.

In an instant, a huge stone snake with a total length of about 30 to [-] meters fiercely poked its head and bit at Cheng Ito...

Ito Cheng smiled slightly at Athena who was approaching with the head of the stone snake.Quickly leapt back and retreated a distance of more than ten meters.After avoiding the stone snake's bite, he chanted the sword's speech spirit again loudly.

"The snake—the symbol of your strength, your essence, I should say. You have always been a goddess closely associated with the snake. And there is the owl—also deeply related to the bird."

"Oh? Ito Cheng, have you investigated the source of the concubine?" Athena said with a slightly interested look on her face.

"Of course, in order to impress you with the failure of immortality for life. I have prepared a lot. At least for what kind of god you are. I have about [-]% or [-]% of it. And the key to explain your existence. That is [ Snake]." Ito Cheng said with a smile.

"The snake is Medusa. Athena and Medusa are originally the same goddess. This is before the two goddesses were spread to Greece from the land of North Africa in a foreign country." Following this sentence.A large number of baseball-sized energy light spheres exuding golden luster floated around Ito Cheng's body, completely enclosing him in the center of the ocean of light spheres.

"If you go back to the source, you are the goddess of the snake. Not only that, but Metis, the goddess of wisdom who is the mother of Athena in Greek mythology, was originally you."

At this time, the huge stone snake finally climbed over a distance of more than ten meters from Ito Cheng, and came to his vicinity again, but when it was about to attack Ito Cheng again, it was gathered outside Ito Cheng The barrier formed by the golden ball of light resisted it.

"This is the sword's word spirit!? Is it the weapon just now!" Athena said with a slight frown.

"You are not a goddess born in Greece. You are an earth goddess born in North Africa and worshiped by the entire Mediterranean. And you have many other names and images. Metis, Medusa, Knight, Yanata, Yatta Na, Yanata, Ashera...they were originally clones of Athena, who is your main body, and they can also be said to be your sisters." At this point, the sword's speech spirit finally completed the first stage preparation.And the moment it was completed, a golden light shot out from the sword body, cutting the stone snake outside the barrier into two halves.

The dead stone snake immediately returned to its original appearance, turned into countless gravels, and fell to the ground rumbling.

"It's really unpleasant, Ito Cheng! How dare you threaten me with a sword! Don't remind me of that taboo past!" Although she lost the support of the snake, Athena, whose body was still floating in the sky, had an angry look on her face. Said.

"You, the ancestors of Isis in Egypt and Ishtar in Babylon, are descendants of the ancient mother goddess. You are not only the goddess of the earth, but also the god of darkness who rules the underworld. The goddess of wisdom who masters the wisdom of the sky." Ito Cheng ignored Athena's anger, and continued to weave the words to polish the blade, making it sharper.

"Because it has always been accompanied by three attributes, it has become a trinity goddess-this is the characteristic of Athena. As a god of war, it is only added with the changes of the times. The god of the underworld who manages death and the greatest disaster, That is to say, if you have something to do with war, you will become the God of Fighting, which is very reasonable."

"You are really good at talking!" The angry Athena flashed a light in her hand, and a bow and arrow appeared.Then Athena raised her bow and arrow, and shot the arrow in her hand at Ito Cheng.

At this time, I saw the light of the sword in Ito Cheng's hand flashed, and the flying arrow was bounced out.

"Then, the key to the birth of your Trinity is the snake!" Ito Cheng continued to state the words.

"Don't talk about it anymore! The past of the concubine's body is something that a junior like you can easily defile!" Athena ordered loudly.At the same time, four arrows appeared in his hand again and shot at Ito Cheng, but they were still blocked by the light emitted by the sword of words in his hand.

"Although cows, sheep, and pigs are also used to symbolize the harvested earth. In fact, you are also the earth goddess in the form of a cow-yet your essence is a snake, and this is the key to your being the most ancient Athena .At the end of the day, you are not the goddess who holds the bounty of the earth. Life is born, grows, matures, ages, and then dies, and so do the four seasons. Grow in spring, flourish in summer, bear fruit in autumn, and wither in winter.”

At this time, Athena put away her bow and arrow with an angry expression, waved her sword, and rushed towards Ito Cheng even if her body would be cut by the [sword].However, Ito Cheng dexterously dodged it immediately.

"There are also people in the ancient world. Not all of them can get the blessings bestowed by the earth. Because of natural disasters or abnormal phenomena, most of the harvest will be lost because of these—so the Mother Earth not only bestows blessings, but also steals them in winter. If you walk away from life, a bad mood will bring disasters. Otherwise, it would be illogical." Ito Cheng weaved the spirit of words.While swinging his sword, he slashed at Athena.

Athena as the god of disobedience.As soon as he showed himself, he gained the apex of force in the world, so even though Ito Cheng's slash was much sharper than that of ordinary people.Athena was still able to dodge the fatal sword cut in a short time.

"So it's a snake. After several times of shedding, the snake that keeps hibernating and waking up is a creature that symbolizes the cycle of death and rebirth, and the seasonal migration. Compared with the cow that symbolizes harvest and love, the blessings and disasters of life The serpent that possesses both of death and death is a veritable god."

For ancient people, creatures as weird and mysterious as snakes were very rare.It keeps shedding its outer shell by moulting, hibernates for a long time in winter, and wakes up in spring as if resurrected from the dead.Easily bridged the gap between winter and spring, is an immortal god.

Winter—that is, the god who brings death, is also the god of nature and the underworld.This is Athena and the snake, and why she is the goddess of the earth but also the god of the underworld.Moreover, the underworld imagined by ancient people basically existed in the dark underground.A winter world shrouded in darkness.Similarly, the time dominated by darkness—the night may also be part of the underworld, so Athena is also the goddess of darkness.

"Ito Cheng, it's my concubine who underestimated you!" Athena said in a deep voice after pulling away from Ito Cheng again.

"Urusragna! The god you killed is Urusragna! The conquering god who is closely related to Indra in the far east and my friend Hercules. Serving The new king of gods, the disobedient god who used his spear to defeat the ancient gods!" Then, Athena used her wisdom to analyze the source of the sword of words.

"The god of war is the crusader of the ancient gods. If you can kill Urusragna, then it is not unreasonable to be able to use the sword of killing gods... But it's not the only thing?"

"Urusragna is not only the god of victory, but also the guardian of the kingship and the people, and the personal guard of Mithra, the main god of Persia. Mithra is the incarnation of the sun, so Urusragna is also related to the sun. related."

"Although I don't know how much Urusragna's power you can master, you should have the power related to the sun. If you want to get rid of the darkness in your body, the most effective way is the sun." Athena squinted her eyes and stared at Said the sword in Ito Cheng's hand.

"It's really a filthy and terrifying sword, but you used it too blatantly. Maybe you want to annoy the concubine and take the opportunity to find a flaw? Ito Cheng, your trick has been seen through by the concubine." Athena looked confident declared.Immediately, Athena opened her eyes again, and similar to the longan possessed by Yaye, the golden animal pupils exuding a wild aura appeared. Wherever these eyes have been looked at, no matter whether it is a living thing or a dead thing, there is no danger. There is a state of petrification.

Seeing this, Ito immediately flew back again, avoiding the influence of Petrified Moo.

"Medusa, the goddess of snakes with evil eyes, this is the best evidence to prove that you have a close relationship with birds." Ito Cheng, who was temporarily avoiding, weaved words again.

"The three sisters of the Gorgon, including Medusa, not only have snake hair. They also have golden wings on their backs. The name of the second sister, Euryale, means and the youngest sister, Medusa, is the mother of the winged horse Pegasus."

"It is the earth and the underworld that connect you and the bird—you are the god who dominates the two worlds, and the bird has the magic power to fly back and forth between the other world and the present world. In ancient times, our ancestors thought so. The soul of the deceased will take the form of a bird and fly to the sky, or be guided by the bird into the underworld." With the completion of this speech, the petrification effect extended to Ito Cheng suddenly stopped, and was resisted by the golden sword light .

"So in order to go back and forth between the earth and the underworld, it is a matter of course to combine Athena and a bird. Your essence is a snake—and a winged snake."

"You want to slash and insult me. You want me to lose my composure. I won't be fooled!" Athena, who urged the spell power to strengthen the petrification effect and pushed towards Ito Cheng, said loudly.

"Original you are a snake with wings. Before you were crowned with the name of the gods, you were the goddess of life and death worshiped by the ancients. After the baptism of time, the evolved posture of the winged snake is Athena, the god of disobedience." Ito Cheng, who also instigated the magic power and weaved the sword of words and spirits to resist, read.

"Rules the earth and the underworld. The goddess of the snake who is in charge of wisdom in the sky. Undoubtedly the highest level of existence among the gods. No one can match it. The gods of the gods have the highest authority, the queen of the gods."

"Once upon a time. You were a woman who ruled the ancient world. It was the queen's duty to serve the gods and rule mankind, so the leaders of the gods were also goddesses—the goddesses of winged snakes. But when they were kicked out of the highest throne Come, men with arms revolt, feminist society is over."

"The era of queens is over, and the era of kings has begun. At the same time, the supreme god has changed from the matriarchal goddess of the earth to the strict father god. Starting from Zeus, the king of gods was born."

"The oldest Athena and her avatars have all degenerated into the wives, sisters or daughters of the god kings, losing their past glory, and the myth has been tampered with like this."

"Shut up!" Athena yelled angrily at the painful spot.

"Athena became the daughter of the king. Metis was insulted by him and took away his wisdom. Medusa even degenerated into a monster. More than that, Hera (hera) or Aphrodite (hera) in Greek mythology ( aphrodite), all corrupted Earth Mothers, goddesses of the same origin as you, of life and death."

"Didn't you tell me to shut up! That sentence is really filthy!" Athena said loudly angrily.

"The defeated Goddess of the Earth was mentioned in mythology as a winged snake. The winged snake—that is, the dragon. The evil dragon that appeared in countless heroic myths was mentioned by heroes and gods. The defeated dragon is exactly the attitude of the defeated Earth Mother after being degraded!" As he spoke, Ito Cheng held the golden sword that had been polished enough to kill the gods and forced Athena over.

As a resistance, Athena summoned a black sickle symbolizing the god of death and held it in her hand, colliding with Ito Cheng's golden sword.In an instant, a cold breath passed from Athena's sickle.

"I won't be cut by you, even if I am immortal, I can't withstand your attack that can cut off the godhead directly, so I will knock you down with the power of darkness and taboo!" Glaring Said Athena looking at Ito Cheng.

"My concubine is the one who summons winter and is in charge of life and death, the ruler of the cold underworld, the queen who steals and plunders. I command. Kusanagi Godou, become a dead king, and turn into a corpse." Athena chanted the words of power , Instigating the magic power to turn into ripples of death, he attacked Ito Cheng with the weapon in his hand.

"Have you forgotten? I also have the power of Hades!" Ito Cheng said, mobilizing the power of Hades in his body to resist the attack sent by Athena.Then with force on his arm, he forcibly cut off the sickle in Athena's hand with the sword of words and spirits.

"Boom!" The collision between the spells instantly formed a powerful shock wave, sending Ito Cheng and Athena's bodies flying outward.But neither of them were ordinary people, and they quickly stood up again from the ground cleaned by the shock wave.

"In this case, your sword can no longer be used, I know it very well." Athena said with a smile on her face, "In other words, you want to use the power of the sun now... Urusragna's Among the incarnations, the one with the strongest relationship with the sun should be the horse."

After speaking, he took out the pitch-black sickle again, and slashed towards Ito Cheng.

"As expected of the Goddess of Wisdom, you are right." Ito Cheng, who calmly dodged the attack of Athena's sickle, smiled, then pointed to the east, and shouted loudly, "For victory, come to me quickly! Immortal sun!" , please give me a shining steed. Spiritual horse with fine feet, bring here the halo that symbolizes your Lord!"

At the end of the sentence, in the east of the dark sky, a new sun suddenly appeared, turned into a flaming spear, and rushed towards Athena.In an instant, within tens of meters around Athena, everything was swallowed by white flames...

"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!" Athena, who was burned by the flames, cried out in pain.

"Now, remember the failure in your immortal life." At this moment, Ito Cheng, who was standing on the periphery of the flame, flipped out his Longinus spear and said to Athena in the flame. (To be continued..)
