I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

"If he's really as amazing as you say, he must be very famous. I can just ask anyone."

Why should I need you?

Zatanna said anxiously, "He appears and disappears like a ghost; no one knows where he is except me!"

Moreover, he is very powerful, and only I know his weaknesses.

Please take me with you! I'm sure I can help!

After saying that, fearing that Lei Ming might not be at ease, she added:

"I swear to my deceased father that if you can help me escape this predicament, I will do everything in my power to help you find the gods."

Furthermore, if you can help me kill him, I am willing to be your slave and servant, and swear my loyalty to you to the death!

Seeing her serious expression, Lei Ming began to consider it.

He doesn't yet know Kracharius's strength, so having someone knowledgeable follow him wouldn't be a bad thing.

As for whether she will turn against them...

That was not within his consideration.

Having made up his mind, he asked:

"How can I set you free? I don't know magic."

Zatanna was overjoyed upon hearing this and immediately pointed to the small lake behind her.

"There's a sword stuck in the bottom of that lake; it's the divine weapon Kracharius used to seal me away."

"Once I pull it out, I'll be free."

Lei Ming then used his X-ray vision to look, and sure enough, among a pile of rubble, bones, and other debris at the bottom of the lake, he saw a two-handed greatsword.

He hadn't noticed it before, but now, upon closer inspection,

Only then did I realize that the greatsword, covered in mud and seaweed, was still sharp, without the slightest sign of corrosion.

It really is a fine sword.

Without a word, he jumped into the lake and easily pulled out the sword…

At the same time, Zatanna on the shore felt her restraints being released and excitedly flew into the air!

"I'm finally free!"

Her excited shouts echoed throughout the entire forest, and the magical storm that erupted from her body was like a typhoon.

The flock of birds and beasts were startled and fled in panic.

Then, with a resentful look in a certain direction, she gritted her teeth and said, word by word:

"King Minos of Crete! And Cracles!"

I will make you pay the price!

As she spoke, she glanced to the side out of the corner of her eye.

The giant frog was holding a sword and staring coldly at her.

"I'm...I'm sorry, I got too excited..."

She hurriedly apologized and immediately withdrew the turbulent magical storm.

Even after escaping, she still didn't think she was a match for that giant frog...

"Take me to him."

Lei Ming ignored her, tossed her the sword in his hand, and flew into the sky.

This sword, though extraordinary, was of no use to him.

No weapon in the world is harder than his frog fist.

Zatanna caught the sword, shouted "Yes!", and followed him into the sky...

After the person and the frog left,

The little frog hopped out from under a rock, its eyes gazing longingly at the sky, determined to tell its descendants about its amazing experience of the day…

Chapter 153 The Gods

At the summit of Mount Olympus

Within the vast temple, surrounded by 130 colossal stone pillars, stand twelve stone thrones.

But on the central throne sat a thin, white-haired old man.

His eyes were lowered, and he propped his head up with his elbow, as if taking a nap.

On either side of him, the sacred flames on the bronze pillars swayed gently in rhythm with his breathing.

In Greek mythology,

Gods are of the same form and nature as humans. Like humans, they have various physical forms, both beautiful and ugly, and they also have emotions, desires, joys, sorrows, and other feelings…

The only difference is that God is immortal and, under normal circumstances, will never die.

Human lifespan is only a few decades.

Unlike the gods in other pantheons, they are hardly imbued with any mystical aura.

Even the King of Gods

Zeus.

boom!

For some unknown reason, the flames of the sacred fire in front of him suddenly shot up dozens of meters high!

This phenomenon awakened Zeus.

He opened his wrinkled eyelids, his cloudy eyes looking at the wildly burning sacred fire with a hint of doubt.

Because the last time this strange phenomenon occurred during the Olympic flame...

It was thirty years ago, on the day Clacharius was born.

He slowly stood up, walked to the sacred fire, and placed his withered hands into the brazier.

He 'took' the flickering sacred flame down and then brought it close to his eyes for a closer look.

Amidst the dancing and swaying flames,

Zeus saw one flying in the air.

frog.

It's unclear what He saw in this frog, but His droopy eyelids gradually widened, and a hint of doubt appeared in His cloudy pupils.

Soon, the doubt turned into astonishment…

"Impossible..."

Why would he come here...?

How could he possibly be here!

Zeus's surprised and doubtful voice echoed in the empty temple.

They stayed together for a long time.

After a long while, Zeus finally placed the sacred fire back into the brazier, then looked into the distance, closed his eyes, and murmured softly…

My brothers... my sisters...

That person,

"I'm back..."

The moment He finished speaking, a cloud of black mist suddenly filled the empty hall.

The black mist, as if alive, churned and surged from beneath the main hall, climbing all the way up to the twelve thrones.

They eventually settled on one of the thrones.

As the black mist dissipated, a hunched old man dressed in a black robe appeared on the throne.

Zeus's gaze remained fixed on the black mist until the old man appeared, at which point He spoke:

"Hades...my brother..."

This hunched old man is Hades, the god of the underworld.

At this moment, another change occurred in the main hall.

A transparent water figure dragged its wet steps into a fountain pool outside the hall.

With each step forward, the water elemental's body solidified a little more.

When he entered the hall and took his seat on the throne,

He had transformed into a robust, middle-aged man with a long beard and a bare upper body.
