Chapter 61 The So-Called Hero

"Woo..."

Hector forced the cloth into his mouth and pleaded with Zeus, "Father Zeus, please forgive this child's mistakes. He is just too young and has been bewitched. He only cares about himself. I only hope that you can hand him over to me."

"Whatever you say." Zeus didn't care about this little episode.

Achilles was the next hero he planned to train, but if he didn't know what was good for him, he would show no mercy.

Now, the most important thing is to remove the curse and complete the seven-day oath...

Zeus took a group of mortal heroes and Hercules to the underworld, ignoring the already in chaos in Olympus.

"Athena, I need an explanation." The first thing Apollo and Luna asked was Athena.

"No time, we have to set off too." But Athena did not reply directly;

"Where?"

"The Underworld," Athena said firmly, "This is our final war. We will be utterly destroyed there, father!"

She said the last word "father" with gritted teeth.

……

At the entrance of the main hall of Olympus, the witch Circe was sitting here doing nothing.

She was not qualified to enter Olympus and could only wait at the door for the hero inside to complete the legend.

At this moment, she began to imagine that the heroes were favored by the gods, and then returned home with glory, and even had a happy life after marriage.

What name should I give my eldest son? Siddiqui probably prefers girls, so why not have more girls and a younger son? Then, let the older son become the king of a country, and the younger son become a hero...

Where to settle? Ilias? Or Athens? What if the eldest son doesn't want to be king?
Oh, by the way, my niece Medea said that I must not let any woman get close to my man, and I must not give him any chance to come into contact with other women...

She had already started imagining what names her grandchildren would be called.

She had no idea what happened inside the temple.

Suddenly, several gods appeared, their eyes filled with indifference. "Transfigured witch Circe, do not leave this place now. Wait for the return of Zeus, the father of heaven, to punish you!"

Circe was stunned, and then suddenly felt a strong sense of palpitations.

"What happened to Xedile? What happened to my Xedile?" she asked the god in horror.

That ominous premonition was magnifying and even gradually filling my entire heart.

……

The island of Alipotripa, the entrance to the River Styx, is a full six days' voyage from Olympus, but with the blessing of Zeus, the Thunder arrived here in just a few breaths.

After entering the underworld, Zeus finally calmed down and felt that he might have made a big deal out of nothing.

Without the entourage of these mortal heroes and Hercules, and without the curse placed on him by the second generation of gods, he would be invincible in Greece.

Absolutely strong, invincible, the strongest!
"Hercules, my child, you guard the mouth of the River Styx and don't let anyone enter." Zeus said to Hercules.

Hercules, who was wearing a golden lion skin and had most of his face hidden under the lion's fur, did not answer, but just stood silently at the mouth of the River Styx.

The remaining mortal heroes surrounded Zeus and headed into the depths of the underworld.

In fact, most of these mortal heroes are his descendants. Zeus looked at these heroes and felt his own blood in them to a greater or lesser extent.

Sure enough, only these children are his real team, and they will also be the angels in the new world in the future.

The underworld is really quiet, Zeus sighed in his heart.

The River Styx has been filled up, the Seven Days of Destruction has begun, and the whole of Greece is gradually entering its doomsday, but it is still quiet here, and even the breath of his brother Hades cannot be sensed.

The only thing Zeus was worried about was that Hades, knowing the special nature of Xue's Law, would use Xue's Law to secretly plot against him in the underworld.

But now, after being hit by Xue Law, Zeus became extremely cautious.

The first thing he did when he arrived in the underworld was to use the half of Typhon he controlled to sense the location of Hades. If Hades held the Law of Xue in his hand, he would immediately leave the underworld and let the half of Typhon release the Titan gods imprisoned in the abyss.

Zeus created an avatar that took over Typhon's consciousness, controlling not only the sky but also half of the underworld. In his plan, the underworld would become "Hell" in the new world, a part of his supreme majesty and one of the most important parts of his plan.

Now, through the information sent by Typhon, Hades is not in the underworld.

This is the best time.

……

On the Thunder, Hercules freed Achilles who was tied to the sail.

At the moment of resuming action, Achilles pounced like a mad dog, but was lifted up and controlled by Hercules with one hand.

"Hercules! The great hero of Greece! Tell me why! Why!" He seemed to have lost his mind, and even without weapons, he tried to kill Hercules with his bare hands.

"calm!"

Hercules slapped Achilles, and the 12-year-old boy finally came to his senses from his anger.

"This is what Athena told me, the real plan."

……

The night before the Tianting set off, the night when the real plan was discussed.

The scene was eerily quiet.

"In my hometown, there's a story like this," Xue Lufeng said. "It's about a 'hero' who took his best friend's head and a dagger to assassinate the king. Because of his best friend's head, the king believed him and successfully let him get close to him."

"Did the 'hero' who tried to assassinate the king succeed?" someone asked.

"No, he failed. The man who went with him was no hero, but a coward. He peed his pants out of fright. He was also not very skilled in martial arts and was eventually killed by the king's guards."

"So..." The heroes were puzzled, but suddenly, they looked at Xue Lufen in astonishment, at the most beautiful person in Greece, and were surprised why Xue Lufen came up with this idea.

"I have a plan that should work," Xue Lufeng said. "Take my head and trick Zeus into going to the underworld."

"no!"

"Too risky."

"After you die, who will kill Zeus in the underworld?"

Everyone opposes it, even Athena, both logically and practically, and in the story of Xue's Law, the hero who assassinates the king also fails.

"No, believe me." Xue Lufeng smiled, "I can guarantee that I will remain a 'living person' in the underworld."

In Greece, the boundary between life and death is very vague, especially when he has the support of the great sage.

"Believe me, everyone. Your mission is to... in front of all the gods..." Xue Lufeng paused, "kill me as a mortal! Then carry my head to the underworld."

……

This was the real plan, the plan to go in alone and lure Zeus into the trap with death.

Achilles was stunned, tears of blood welling up in his pupils. He finally understood why the heroes along the way often showed expressions of cowardice and pain, while Xue Lufen was like a spiritual mentor, constantly encouraging and comforting these heroes.

When I killed the Scylla sea monster, faced the Sirens, and arrived at the foot of Mount Olympus, it was all like this...

At that time, I thought these heroes were nothing special and were still afraid of death.

But now he realized that the hero's pain was not his own death, but having to kill his best friend with his own hands in front of the gods!
"So they..." Achilles asked, his voice trembling.

"Zeus is very cautious. If Hades or I were in the underworld, he would not dare to enter." Hercules said,

"So when Zeus realized something was wrong and was about to escape the underworld, someone had to hold him back. Even if it was just for a fraction of a second, I would have enough time to trap Zeus in the underworld." Hercules smiled and then revealed even more important news.

"Even if I die, I'm confident I can hold Zeus back for a few moments. By then, Athena, Hades, Apollo, Artemis... all our gods will have arrived and trapped Zeus and Typhon in the underworld. Then, all it will take is for the hero, Xediles, to launch a kill attack against Zeus, and our deaths will be completely worth it."

Hercules, wearing the golden lion skin, smiled as if relieved. He wore all his divine attire today: the lion skin, the nine-headed snake bow, the poisonous Hydra arrows, and so on...

Before he died, he seemed to have thought of many things in the past, but in the end, all that was left was relief and the courage to fight to the death.
