Chapter 589: The biggest characteristic of Jupiter's pantheon is chaos
Chapter 589: The biggest characteristic of Jupiter's pantheon is chaos
Wow.
The pages of "Divine Comedy" opened automatically, and hymns, ghost cries, whimpers, screams... The sacred and eerie noise suddenly enveloped the sea.
Then a colorful beam of light shot straight into the sky, using endless words to outline the triple illusion of "Hell", "Purgatory" and "Heaven", filling the sky with darkness.
A pair of white wings grew on Mercurius' ankles. He leaped into the air and sat on the glorious throne in the center of the triple heaven, holding a golden double-snake staff in his hands.
The undead, demons, and angels stood on his left and right, as if the three worlds had really fallen into his palms, moving as he wished, at his command.
Countless cold voices then echoed across the sky:
"Blasphemy!"
"Damn it!"
The murderous aura rising into the sky caused a layer of white frost to form on the sea.
The [writers] in the Hall of Fame sequence adapt to social development and professional tendencies, and have different names in different periods, such as writers, poets, novelists, screenwriters, etc.
In essence, they all use poetry, novels, biographies and other texts as carriers to display their extraordinary abilities.
You can summon characters and monsters from your own works to help in battle. Even if you create an unprecedented power system, it can come true as long as it is reasonable.
You can summon a stunningly beautiful woman from a book to sleep with you. The beauty will be as beautiful as the writing.
Moreover, they are all tailor-made according to your preferences, vivid and charming, and you can write more about whatever you control. They are more fascinating than real people whose characters are too random.
Even if I feel that I am not some kind of special control such as legs, waist, feet, etc., but just a simple lustful pervert, it is definitely not a problem for me to write a harem drama with revelry every night.
Every year, there are countless aspiring young men who become writers just for the sake of beauty, or rather, with great literary dreams in mind!
In addition, you can directly summon scene descriptions or extraordinary abilities to directly descend into reality and turn falsehood into reality.
The fuller and more logical the characters and storylines are, the more readers will be moved, the more emotions they will invest, and the stronger the performance will be.
When a writer writes a "phenomenal" work, he or she can even unleash a power beyond his or her own rank and lend it to other writers.
In fact, when writers write "fan stories", they can also borrow the power of others or expand their influence, and both parties are happy.
The legendary ancient masterpiece "The Republic" really hides an ideal and perfect country, comparable to the kingdom of demigod.
The "Prince", a work that has been passed down through the ages, also contains a story about a perfect monarch who exists only in theory and can ensure the eternal security of the royal power.
The same is true of the current edition of The Divine Comedy.
The Divine Comedy, written by Dante, the last poet of the old era and the first poet of the new era, marked the beginning of the Renaissance.
In this world-famous work, Dante claimed to have toured and recorded the three long poems "Inferno", "Purgatory" and "Paradise".
Among them, "Hell" is the most detailed and the most deeply rooted in people's hearts, because there really is this place at the edge of the world.
The other two places are most likely from the memory of the God of Commerce. At least these two places cannot be found in the current material world.
As a creator, he can naturally borrow the true power of "Hell" through this book.
At this moment, the "traitor" was sitting on the throne, but his face did not have the divine look that a "God of Business" should have. Instead, it was distorted and hideous.
"Creak. Crack."
There was fire in his eyes and his teeth were about to break.
In fact, this "traitor" who thought he was Mercury was not the real person from the mythological era, but just a counterfeit born from mythology.
Being like a man is greater than being like a god.
Before dying, ordinary people will try their best to take their browsing history with them and take care of their reputation after death.
What’s more, he is a god who has gained eternal life?
Don't be afraid of being shattered into pieces, you want to leave your innocence in the world.
"Renjian" regards himself as the last successor of the Jupiter pantheon of the ancient Silver Empire, so he is naturally a god who cares about his reputation.
But Byron would hit people in the face and expose their shortcomings when he scolded them.
His secret past, which he couldn't bear to recall and whose tears would soak his pillow every time he woke up in the middle of the night, was exposed in public.
At this moment, the blood was flowing backwards, and reason and even the balance between 'divinity' and 'animal nature' were crumbling.
The power is released with hatred in a wave of the hand, and the power is naturally extraordinary.
Blah blah blah
In an instant, the Milky Way turned upside down and the tide surged.
The words of "Inferno" turned into an endless black tide and rushed towards Byron.
"In the middle of my life, I lost myself in a dark forest. How difficult it is to describe the desolation, silence and vastness of that forest!
When I thought of him, I was filled with fear, as if death was approaching. Before describing how I met the rescuer, I will first describe the shocking scene.
When the sky turned into various undead creatures: skeleton knights, stitched corpses, vampire banshees, headless knights, liches.
More waves of text behind him transformed into ghost hands swaying like the black shadows of dead branches, grabbing towards the Golden Deer.
They merged together, like countless demons and monsters in the bottomless pit of the nine levels of hell, brazenly breaking through the barrier between reality and fantasy.
"The field expands!"
The little ship girl on the [Golden Deer] adjusted the huge triangular captain's hat on her head and snapped her fingers, and a circle of golden light waves quickly expanded out.
Om-!
[Legendary Battleship Skill: The Empire is the Navy, the Navy is the Empire] With the upgrade of the muzzle-loading smoothbore gun to the breech-loading rifled gun, the royal domain and sea borders also expanded to 12 nautical miles along with the range.
Not only those undead creatures, but even Mercury, who was sitting high on the throne, was instantly included.
At the same time, the sound of anchor chains being tightened rang out in the hearts of every crew member on the twelve ships of the great fleet, and they immediately became an inherent node in the royal domain, jointly enhancing the power of the domain.
The effect is immediate.
The closer those undead creatures got to the Golden Deer, the greater the pressure they would be under and the more their strength would decay.
Those low-level undead of weaker racial level disappeared in the golden light of the royal domain with thick smoke all over their bodies before they could even get close.
"Musketeers, load shotgun shells and fire!"
The boatswain [the honest man] Eight Fingers commanded Byron's guards to line up on the deck, holding the "Hidden Blade 1473 Pump-Action Rifle" and pulling the handguards, and loading shotgun shells filled with magic-destroying steel balls.
boom!boom!boom!boom!
From the moment the first shot was fired, the gunfire never stopped. The hot steel balls turned into a metal storm that blocked all the space above the battleship.
Under such a density of firepower, the first wave of undead creatures, whether they were the powerful Headless Knight or the ordinary Vampire Banshee, were instantly ripped into pieces.
There is no need to pursue salvo fire to increase firepower density like with flintlock rifles. After a round of salvo fire, each rifle can start free firing.
The two sides exchanged fire head-on, and the members of the Ferdinand family on the other side were also dazed as they looked at the strange yet familiar figure in the sky:
"How is that possible? That's Dante's Divine Comedy, which opened the Renaissance.
But Dante lived two hundred years ago. He has no descendants or students. The Divine Comedy has long been lost, and only handwritten copies remain in circulation.
Besides, the Grand Duke is not a writer by profession, so he can’t use the masterpieces that writers have handed down from generation to generation!"
Some of the more intelligent members recalled what Byron had said:
"Mercurius, son of Jupiter!"
Before becoming the core parish of the Church of the Creator, the Holy Silver Empire believed in the Jupiter pantheon.
As a wealthy and powerful family with a thousand-year heritage, how could the Ferdinand family not know what this name stands for?
Especially since the "Grand Duke" reacted so strongly, there might really be something wrong, or even some shocking secret hidden.
And the King of the Wild Hunt was the one who knew the truth.
Therefore, these people did not immediately criticize Byron or help their own "Grand Duke".
Instead, they all looked towards the Golden Deer, hoping that the [King of the Wild Hunt] could answer their questions.
Byron had no time to pay attention to them now.
In order to consider the international influence and its own bottom line, the "traitors" were forced to expose themselves voluntarily, without affecting Ferdinand, thus preventing them from becoming cannon fodder for the traitors.
As long as these people did not die in front of Byron, they would have destroyed his plan to unify the human race and promote the "world change" of the demigod promotion ceremony.
It was none of his business whether to continue on to the Eastern Continent or return to the Old Continent.
Perhaps Ferdinand had a great influence, but Byron is now qualified to say that:
“The Lord doesn’t care!”
The men of both sides were fighting fiercely. Byron and the "traitor" stared at each other from a distance. He was somewhat surprised at the true strength displayed after he forcibly suppressed his "divine side" and rebelled.
"As expected of an old antique who has lived for thousands of years, his accumulation is probably not inferior to that of [Sun God] Inti, right?
If I hadn't been rejected by the world, I would have been able to step halfway into the realm of demigod."
Byron learned about his past and present lives through the Temple of Jupiter where Mercury was born.
They had different names and identities in different eras, but they were all poets, writers, litterateurs and playwrights famous in the country or even in the world.
He was the first poet, the first historian, the famous thinker, the unprecedented philosopher, and the poet Dante, the pioneer who opened the Renaissance.
He is the most sought-after literary master and famous playwright in Florence, the capital of literature and art today. He is the "Jupiter at the pinnacle of human literature" who wrote "Hamlet", "Othello" and "A Midsummer Night's Dream"!
These epoch-making great writers and works naturally also bring together countless thoughts and wishes.
Even though he never had a fixed territory or subjects, relying on more than a thousand years of accumulation and leaving his name in the history and literature of every era, his strength was almost reaching the critical point of the sixth level.
If the "traitor" had personally joined the battle instead of launching a sneak attack from the bottom of the world, the situation might have turned out differently.
Louis XI even met such a person, which was a great honor for his family.
The "traitor" frowned, realizing that his judgment that the other side only had one ship with 400 people was not accurate, and he waved the magic wand in his hand again.
The unfolding three-layer realm forcibly resisted the expansion of the royal domain and provided a huge bonus to the endless stream of undead creatures.
Byron also stopped looking down on him and decided to go to the battle himself.
With a loud neigh, the eight-legged Pegasus carried Byron, who had transformed into a wild hunter, straight into the sky.
Behind him, there were thousands of Wild Hunt Knights following closely behind.
Buffalo horns and a tattered feather crest dangled from the helmet, and paler skin lay beneath the deathly grey mask.
The skeleton horse under his crotch was wrapped in a ragged horse cloth, and the lightning-shaped blade in his hand split the dark sky, and the pale blue nether fire on his body extended to the end of the sky.
Along the way, the undead creatures that escaped from the "Hell" were pushed to the sides like a tide hitting reefs.
Mercurius also stood up from his throne again.
With a shake of his shoulders, he transformed into a giant with bronze divine light, holding a double-snake staff in his hands and flying towards Byron like a meteor falling from the sky.
The Jupiter pantheon is a human pantheon, and its mythological form, the Titans, is not much different from humans, except that they are taller and more perfect.
Boom——! ! !
The double snake staff collided with Gungnir in Byron's hand, and a second brilliant sun suddenly rose in the sky.
Circles of explosive shock waves blew away the clouds within a dozen kilometers above the head.
Mercurius, whose main job is [Writer], not only possesses the status of a god, but also has a melee skill that is not 3% inferior to Byron's "All Things Return to One", and he is not at all at a disadvantage in a head-on fight.
Seeing the surprise on Byron's face, Mercurius sneered in his heart:
"I kept revising history, became disgusted by the world itself, and lost the possibility of expanding 'all things return to one' to the natural world.
But my magic [Same Shape, Same Sex] allows me to be firmly bound to the human race and realize the 'unity of all things' among human individuals.
No one can deprive me of my human status!
I just want to mess with you internally, assassinate heroes one by one, and disgust you everywhere, what can you do to me?"
The gods in the Jupiter pantheon are completely different from the "indescribable" old gods of today. The gods have the same shape and nature as humans.
They have similar appearance and personality to humans, have seven emotions and six desires, joys, anger, sorrows, and happiness, as well as human weaknesses and defects.
The most typical characteristics are: promiscuity, lust, and promiscuity!
The representative figure, the God King Jupiter, had recorded lovers including more than thirty goddesses of level five or above, nearly thirty mythical creatures, and more than forty human women.
Among these lovers, there are two of his aunts, two sisters, many cousins, and most importantly, one of them is his biological daughter, as well as a great-granddaughter and a great-granddaughter.
He is totally indifferent to food and drink and has no bottom line.
Other male gods in the pantheon are similar. Although they are gods, they seem to have endless "low tastes" in their bodies.
In fact, not to mention women who are close relatives, there are also women who give birth to offspring with animals.
The end result was that countless children were born on the land of the Old World.
As the barbarians broke through the Ancient Silver Empire and established the Holy Silver Empire, the bloodlines of various tribes merged in the later period, and the two sides had long been indistinguishable from each other.
As the last god in the Jupiter pantheon, Mercurius naturally took advantage of it.
If it weren't for this origin, the collective subconscious of mankind would not have been unable to move Mercurius, a "human traitor" tumor that continued to suck blood and do evil, for a thousand years.
To put it simply, this is the original family that cannot be escaped: a gambling father, a sick mother, a younger brother who goes to school, and a broken self.
Mercurius also relied on the ability of [Same Shape and Same Sex] to perfectly play one identity after another in thousands of years of history. After experiencing the other person's life joys and sorrows, he was able to continuously improve his spiritual realm and combat skills.
He also became a peak fifth-level strongman who walked on three legs.
clang!clang!clang!
Holding the snake staff, he and Byron fought each other in the sky.
Two figures flashed, suddenly on the left and suddenly on the right. They were confronting each other in mid-air the previous moment, and the next moment they were more than ten miles away.
Sometimes it was like two meteors smashing countless waves on the sea, and sometimes they rushed straight into the sky, making big holes in the clouds.
The two top false gods fought further and further away.
Byron admitted that he had underestimated the opponent's strength.
It shouldn't be a problem to defeat the "traitor" because he is not only the internal trinity, but he can also rely on his two sisters to achieve the external trinity, which is equivalent to the combination of nine fifth-level people.
But it is not easy to kill the traitor cleanly and efficiently.
There is no rush at this time.
Byron has the trump card of [Ten Thousand Winged Angel], which can trigger his "divine side" to rebel at any time.
The most important thing is, after revealing his scars to attract hatred, and using the fight as a cover to lead him away from "The Divine Comedy", the most critical task has been completed.
The raven Muni flapped its wings and quietly flew into the three realms unfolded by "The Divine Comedy", heading straight for the heaven at the top.
It had been tracking the "rapist" for such a long time that it already knew where he had hidden the original copy of "The Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven".
Just like the Financial Street that Catherine regarded as the prototype of the Kingdom of God, the three realms that were born in the book "Divine Comedy" were also regarded by him as the prototype of the Kingdom of God.
It’s just that the rules are not perfect, and are far from the point where the world can be upgraded and the virtual can be turned into the real.
Moreover, all the writers here are liberal arts writers who have admired him throughout the ages. You can easily guess what the internal atmosphere is like with your toes. There are many passages like “you peed in a line, and I peed in a pit”.
I always feel that it would be good if this thing doesn't degenerate, and it's probably a long way to go to upgrade.
Byron's will possessed the raven, and it quickly found the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven in a lead box.
This book is highly bound to the state of [Bound Creator], and Mercurius, who is already torn, may encounter accidents just by holding it in his hands.
He didn't dare touch it himself. It was still the same as when the Joker handed it to him.
The raven's body swelled up, and it swallowed the lead box into its stomach in one gulp, then spit out an identical lead box.
However, the original "Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven" was replaced with an ordinary taboo book copied by nuns.
The [Fraud] ability is activated again.
Deceiving the fifth sense, the sixth sense, and even permanently distorting cognition.
In battle, you can dominate all of your opponent's senses, making him completely believe Byron's settings about the appearance, shape, quality, touch, and even smell of a particular object.
Then again, Byron, with his ability to cheat, had no difficulty in imitating the writer's fantasies. With his more intuitive and stimulating characteristics, he was better than the former, just like a skit beats a novel.
"Now that Alpha has access to the Golden Rule, its network coverage and computing power are far superior to before. When we return, we can try to create a 'second world'.
Skip electrification and chips and move quickly into the information age.”
Byron achieved his goal, felt relieved, and began to deal with Mercurius casually.
The battle between Violet and Bone Clown, which started first, has come to an end.
Since the latter was promoted to the fifth level with the help of the Big Golden Ghost Card bestowed by [Life-Playing Clown], the magic skills he obtained were mediocre.
It was just that he randomly enhanced an ability called [Hundred Times Savage Bone] from the clown's series of magic abilities: disappearance, change, prediction, levitation, and perspective.
It can become a hundred times larger or a hundred times smaller. When it becomes larger, its strength increases accordingly, and when it becomes smaller, its strength remains unchanged.
It is conceivable that using a power a hundred times greater than that of humans to drive a body with 1% of its mass, if used well, it would be the real Ant-Man!
If Byron could eat the [Life-threatening Clown] who was the best at this path, the [Transformation] of the priesthood might have a chance to be accomplished in one fell swoop.
At this moment, the Bone Clown had broken bones and bruises all over his body from Violet's hammer blows, and blood was constantly oozing from the corners of his painted mouth and nostrils.
Even the brain inside the skull seemed to have been shattered by the violence.
Violet raised her huge steam-powered hammer and shouted her [Disaster Spell]:
"Matter collapses! Death!"
The title ability "Art is Explosion" and the Gate of Truth can both transform matter into energy and burst it out in one breath.
When fighting an enemy, Violet can now only convert the water in the opponent's body into energy for a moment.
Fortunately, water makes up 70 percent of the human body, which is more than enough to kill people or even destroy giant sea monsters.
The [Mechanical Fortress] transformed into a giant power hammer, emitting a dazzling light, and smashed down with a bang while exhaling snow-white steam.
"what--!"
[Barbarian Clown] gathered his strength, roared, and suddenly shrunk to the size of a fist, trying to escape by using the force of the hammer.
But the moment he came into contact with the heavy hammer, his entire body exploded into a ball of bloody mist mixed with countless black ashes.
The Wild Hunt Knight who was roaming nearby pounced on it immediately, imprisoned a dazed soul and threw it into the River Styx, without wasting the magic that suited Byron so well.
On the other side, Archangel Andrea also eliminated the [Bomb Clown] to avenge her previous humiliation and returned to Huashan Heaven with her head held high.
Only a careless move on Byron's part caused Mercury's staff to split the River Styx, saving the life of the dancer Salome, who was already at the end of her strength.
"Let's go! First we need to find Ishtar's body, then we can kill him when we come back."
When the traitor saw Violet turn around and fly towards him, he knew that he could not kill Byron, his great enemy, today.
He had no choice but to put away "The Divine Comedy" again, grabbed the weak Salome and ran away.
Byron pretended to chase after them for a while, then stopped again, shouldered the Holy Lance, and smiled as he watched the two men disappear into the horizon:
“If I hadn’t planned ahead, Ishtar’s [Thunderstorm], [War], and [Fertility] would have been enough to make her the chief deity of each major pantheon.
The hook has been cast. Before you go to explore the Triple Point for me, please help me explore the kingdom of Ishtar, the goddess of Venus."
