Myth: I am God!

Chapter 108 Poseidon's Great Rebellion (Part 2)

The gods were taken aback, not yet understanding the meaning of Zeus's words.

The next moment, the entire Mount Olympus trembled violently.

Even the gods could not maintain their form amidst this trembling.

And Lucifer, hidden in the clouds.

Then I instantly felt a tremendous, soul-crushing sense of crisis...

A hearty laugh drifted closer—

"Ha ha ha, Zeus, I heard from your lover Thetis that you invited me here for drinks?"

A huge shadow fell over Mount Olympus.

The colossal figure trod across the sacred mountain to the entrance of the Pantheon. The gods looked at the figure in terror, only to see that the giant had a hundred arms and fifty heads. Each hand grasped a divine weapon or even a mountain range. When it stepped onto the temple, the entire Pantheon almost collapsed.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, was the first to exclaim in surprise, "Briareus?!"

The three hundred-handed giants who had once been allies with Zeus were all incredibly strong, capable of easily defeating the Titans, and far more powerful than the twelve Olympian gods.

If there is a distinction in strength, then these hundred-armed giants possess at least strength approaching that of a god-king!

At this time, in order to prevent the hundred-armed giant Briareus from destroying their victory.

Athena, Apollo, and others stood together, wielding various divine weapons, and launched an attack on the giant. However, even though the legendary Athena possessed power comparable to Zeus, she was easily grabbed by the hundred-armed giant's arms and tossed around like a toy.

Apollo's arrows never missed, but when they struck the Hundred-Handed Giant, they were like a tickle.

Ares's spear was incredibly sharp, yet it couldn't even pierce the giant's fingernail.

Poseidon tried to stop the hundred-handed giant with floods and his trident, but could only barely halt its advance...

As the enormous shadow gradually pressed in... the gods recalled the fear they had felt when they were dominated by the Titans.

I recalled the despair of Typhon, the progenitor of all demons, when he made the gods flee...

And at that very moment.

An ally that even Hera couldn't have imagined has made a move.

Lucifer, the Morning Star, with twelve wings growing against the wind as if to blot out the sky, wielding a longsword and transforming into a streak of black and red light, pierced through the clouds and descended from the heavens to block the giant's path...

He unleashed a massive sword beam, tinged with blood, at the giant.

The giant was knocked back several steps.

However, this was not what surprised the gods the most...

But what truly made the eyes of the gods tremble was—

His figure was faint and insignificant, not even as large as the pupil of any of the giant's heads, but his appearance startled Zeus, who sat firmly on the throne of the gods!

Under the incredulous gazes of Hera, Poseidon, and the other gods, Zeus seemed to be in a hurry, tensing his muscles.

Then, the supposedly unbreakable Vajra chain broke just like a reed binding Zeus.

The King of Gods casually summoned thunder, which transformed into a storm of lightning.

Together with the hundred-armed giant, they frantically hurled lightning at the strange figure with countless wings.

Seeing this, Lucifer of the Dawn had no choice but to keep dodging, avoiding the lightning thrown from the eye of the storm between the mountains.

However, due to a moment of carelessness, he was struck by the mountain range hurled by the hundred-armed giant.

Seeing how unreliable those damned allies are...

Knowing he was no match for the wounded Lucifer, Zeus unleashed his true thunderous wrath.

He flew straight into the sky, returned to the city with a single click, and escaped back to heaven.

Zeus then unleashed countless terrifying bolts of lightning towards the spot where Lucifer had vanished.

The sun was blasted away, unable to rise for several days; the moon fled, and the stars veered off course.

Until his anger caused the gods to kneel and prostrate themselves on the ground.

When Zeus finished venting his anger and returned to the Pantheon with the hundred-handed giant...

Only the gods knew...

Their so-called rebellion, conspiracy, and usurpation were all within the God-King's expectations.

His strength and wisdom ensured that he would never fall into such a crisis...

He feigned sleep, feigned bondage; all of this was solely for the purpose of demonstrating to the gods...

He possessed not only strength, but also power; he could summon terrifying allies.

And when the rebellious gods knelt in the Pantheon as if awaiting their execution, awaiting the punishment of being cast into the abyss of Tartarus by the King of the Gods...

But they discovered that the god-king, who should have been irritable and furious, did not do so.

He first bound Hera with golden chains, suspending her in the air with heavy anvils hanging from her beautiful, white ankles, stripping her of her dignity and subjecting her to the pain of suspension and pulling. Only when Hera wept and swore to forever obey Zeus's will did he remove all punishment...

The wise Athena was forced to her knees by the overwhelming thunderbolt. Only when Athena swore never to be an enemy of Zeus and to be forever loyal to him did Zeus lift his punishment on her.

The other gods did the same, swearing eternal allegiance before the punishment was lifted.

The gods were both surprised and delighted, but at the same time, they held this god-king in even greater reverence.

No one opposed Zeus's rule anymore.

Because they saw in Zeus something that no previous king of the gods had ever possessed: benevolence.

Then Zeus looked at Poseidon, who was kneeling on the ground, holding a trident.

He announced his punishment, the most severe among all the gods: "I temporarily strip you of your authority and demote you to a mortal. You will go with Apollo to labor for the mortal king, to build the indestructible city of Troy... At the same time, you will bring the sea monster upon the city-state of Argos."

Poseidon was furious upon hearing this. He was the noble god of the sea; how could he be forced to work for a mortal?!

But under Zeus's thunderous gaze, he could only kneel, clutching his trident, and bow his head, saying, "Yes, my king."

Zeus then looked at Ares, who was on the side of his mother Hera, and said, "I want you to start a war on the earth, to have all the nations attack Argos, and to strip you of your authority and divine power, so that you may personally participate in the war and experience the pain of weapons."

Finally, Zeus instructed Athena: "The ancient god Ra of the South said that a Chaos carrier has infiltrated Middle-earth. Fate has told me that it is a Shiaga in Canaan. You must find a way to get rid of her and make sure that such things never appear in Middle-earth."

After all the punishment was over, the hundred-armed giant, whose forty-nine mouths had been busy eating and drinking Olympian wine and food, turned his head to look at Zeus, the king of the gods, let out a loud burp, and asked curiously, "Zeus, what was that winged creature just now? How could it shake my body? You know, even the gods cannot do that."

Zeus, the king of the gods, was eating and drinking with his old friend at a banquet when he shook his head and said, "I don't know what those things are either, and fate can't find any trace of them... but they don't seem to be evil gods from the chaos."

"Perhaps... like the gods of the North and the ancient god Ra of the South, they might be some ancient beings left over from the previous era before the world was born, things that haven't yet disappeared but are on their deathbed..."

'

"However, they are not so scary. They just have a powerful artifact that is hard to guard against."

"And if they dare to hinder my plans, to obstruct the march of destiny..."

'

"Then my thunder will shatter them!"
