Chapter 534 Greed

"The starry sky is vast and boundless, and its expansion has never stopped."

"Even in recent years, it is especially so. As far as I know, in terms of the size of the space alone, it is more than doubled compared to the beginning of this era."

"Although the expansion of space is not necessarily equal to the power it truly represents, as the essence of the core of the starry sky, the zodiac star field and the starry sky around it are indeed more prosperous than before."

"Thanks to this, the importance of Perseus has also been improved."

Finally, Dionysus made a summary and looked in the direction of Hercules.

It is a coincidence that if there were no great heroes and he did not participate in the westward journey at the suggestion of the God King, then Dionysus would probably leave his deeds in the world and then ascend to heaven.

He will go to the edge of the starry sky as a son of the excluded God King, occupy the land there as the king, echo each other with the heroes in the center of the starry sky, and share a share of the benefits of the expansion of the starry sky.

After all, although Zeus didn't know that [Space] was one of the most powerful domains of His origin in the foreign land absorbed by Chaos, he still saw the continuous expansion of the starry sky.

The God King didn't want to miss this good show, so he couldn't go there himself, so he could let his son go there.

"I see."

"Thank you for your explanation. I didn't expect that the bright and brilliant starry sky would be so complicated."

Nodding gently, the great hero was a little surprised at first, but he soon accepted the result.

After all, he had heard of another Perseus during his journey to the East China Sea.

"Perseus, the 'perfect man' praised by the world, turned out not to be as great as the world said."

"In this case... what the Siren told me may be true."

"Siren?"

This time it was Dionysus' turn to be confused. In his impression, Perseus seemed to have nothing to do with the famous sea monster in the world.

Strictly speaking, when Siren's name was circulated in the world, he had already ascended from the world to the sky. They were not from the same era at all.

The great hero was about to explain, but just as he was about to open his mouth, the starlight around the Star Shuttle suddenly dimmed by three points.

As it rushed between the celestial bodies, the speed that had been rising continuously began to slow down gradually.

There was no movement outside, as if the alchemical props had made a mistake themselves.

But with the help of the eyes of the Caucasian Condor, Hercules could clearly see that what really hindered the transmission of starlight and the speed of the silver shuttle was an invisible large net, which covered the Star Shuttle.

At the end of the net, hundreds of armored warriors formed an arc, as if this large net was made by them.

And in the center of the warriors, a hero in golden armor was leaning on his sword and watching from afar.

Seeing the Star Shuttle being tied up in the net, a warrior who was obviously of high status flew towards the hero in golden armor, and his behavior was very respectful.

"......Sir."

Speaking in a low voice, the heroic spirit who had stimulated the divine blood in his body and commanded tens of thousands of soldiers bowed slightly.

He asked himself that he was not a humble person, and he was always proud of his achievements. However, anyone who could come here after death was definitely not unknown in his life.

"I will follow your orders, sir. The UFO that flew from the human world has been successfully bound under the 'Golden Earthshaking Net'."

"The other party will never be able to break free from the power of the sub-artifact. After all, the creation of the great craftsman and the God of Lava is so powerful... But sir, it doesn't look like an evil thing, but a tool forged by alchemists in the human world."

[Golden Earthshaking Net] is the big net driven by this team of heroic spirits.

Hephaestus made it in batches and gave it to the heroic spirits from the Olympian pantheon.

As the saying goes, 'a name is right' before 'speaking is right'. Although Chaos, who is under extraordinary power, does not necessarily say this, it is indeed useful when the gap in strength between the two sides is not obvious.

Moreover, the power of the heroic spirits depends on the singing of the mortals. Even if the king of gods intends to support them, there must be a reasonable reason, rather than blindly helping them.

So the heavy responsibility fell on the head of the craftsman god Hephaestus, who was one of the few craftsmen in Chaos who could make artifacts and was forced to take on the burden.

For thousands of years, his lava workshop has been working almost day and night.

The mass-produced weapons and armor were given to the heroic spirits who ascended from the mortal world to the starry sky. There are also carefully crafted sub-artifacts, which are given to the heroes who have won the name of "constellation" to show their power.

These inferior products without authority are certainly far inferior to the real artifacts, but their power should never be underestimated. The so-called "Golden Net that Shakes the Earth" is one of them.

It is a product made in imitation of the golden net that once bound Achilles. In the original myth, it once made the god of war and the goddess of beauty unable to move.

Of course, this imitation net is not that powerful, and it was not even originally called the "Golden Net that Shakes the Earth".

It was only because of its usefulness and the spread of poetry in the human world that the heroes who used it finally gave it this name.

"Isn't it an evil thing? It doesn't look like one."

"But the alchemists from the human world... hum, that group of despicable unbelievers."

"They can always come up with some small tricks, but they don't know how great the gods are compared to their insignificant achievements."

"Since it's not an evil thing, let them go."

"The starry sky is not a place for them to spy on, or if they want to die with those monsters, I can also fulfill their wish."

With a cold snort, in the center of the heroic army, the face of the golden-armored hero could not help but flash a trace of disappointment and disgust.

Alchemists in the human world... I remember that this profession did not exist in his era.

I thought it was another evil creature from the human world heading for the sun. If it could be caught, it would be a great achievement.

But I didn't expect it to be these faithless spellcasters. It's really disgusting.

Since the end of the Typhon Rebellion, the sun has undergone a terrible mutation. Before the birth of the zodiac barrier, the sunlight that corrupted all souls shone on the boundless earth.

It can be said that if the evil creatures in the human world are divided into ten, at most 30% come from other channels, and the rest are more or less closely related to the sun.

In this case, once they develop to a certain extent in the human world and have power close to that of the gods, whether they are driven by instinct to save the mother body or pursue more powerful power to try to be promoted, they will move towards the zodiac barrier in the starry sky.

And the reason why the big net controlled by these heroic spirits is called "shaking the earth" is actually from this.

"Closing the net, preparing to go back..."

Waving his hands in a listless manner, the Golden Armor Hero was somewhat helpless.

In fact, it was normal that there was no harvest, after all, the place he was responsible for guarding corresponded to the east of the continent.

Compared with several other places, the eastern land was a holy land favored by the gods.

Here, it was almost impossible for powerful evil things to develop to the point of being close to the gods.

Because once similar signs appeared, the heroes of the churches and kingdoms of the gods would kill them immediately.

He turned around and wanted to leave, but at this moment, the Golden Armor Hero's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of the surroundings of the silver shuttle.

There, the strong starlight continued to gather and almost condensed into a solid.

They surrounded the two sides of the silver shuttle, as if to escort it.

Indistinctly, the Golden Armor Hero felt that this scene was a little familiar, and he seemed to have seen a similar scene.

He stopped and couldn't help but recall it carefully.

It seemed that about a hundred years ago, he had the honor of seeing a "solar eclipse" in the starry sky.

The monster from the depths of the spirit world sucked the power of the sun, which could greatly slow down the accumulation of its power under the seal.

That day, the sun rioted. The extremely powerful force shook the sea of ​​stars, and the entire zodiac barrier was shaking slightly.

Even though it had been partially eroded by the power of the outer gods, Chaos's sun was still not regarded as an external object. As the power of the world rose, it also rose with the tide.

If Chaos had only one sun god, perhaps he would have already become another great power in the world.

Please...collect 6...books...!

So under the crazy riot of the sun, the entire zodiac star field almost entered a doomsday scene, and it was on that day that the golden armor hero saw the many true gods who dominated the zodiac star field for the first time.

But the battlefield of the true gods was not here. Only the famous demigod heroes like Perseus could barely set foot there with the power drawn from the legends of the world in [Hall of Valor]. This was far beyond the reach of the existence of the golden armor hero.

He could only look at the other person's back from afar, and in the vast starry sky of the battlefield, even the back was blurred.

In his memory, the true gods who held the power of the star field had their own powers, each of which he could not understand.

But they all had the only thing in common, that is, the immortal starlight entangled around them.

As the gods who held the star field, the starlights throughout the star field instinctively obeyed the superiors, just like hundreds of rivers returning to the sea, surrounding the star gods.

And this scene was firmly remembered by the golden-armored hero at that time, and it is still difficult to forget.

"Wait a minute..."

Speaking in a deep voice, the golden-armored hero stopped his steps when he wanted to leave.

He looked at the silver shuttle in the big net in the distance and fell into silence for a while.

The strange phenomenon was obvious, revealing the starry sky.

He knew that this was not mixed with any extra power, it was just the instinctive feedback of the stars.

But it was because of this that the heart of the golden-armored hero suddenly beat violently.

Is the opposite a true god who holds the star field? No, because in order to prevent accidents, the Zodiac Great Barrier excludes all divine powers that do not belong to its system, whether inside or outside.

If it was a god from the outside, they would have triggered the barrier's spontaneous reaction long ago.

And if it was a true god inside, they could completely use the power of manipulating the barrier to prevent anyone from discovering their comings and goings.

This is exactly the case. For thousands of years, no one has ever been able to detect the traces of the star gods in the Zodiac Star Domain.

So in this case, this sudden alchemical creation is definitely not a personal visit from a god, but it has created the effect of a personal visit from a god.

It's like it's not carrying a living god, but his corpse.

He shook his head and drove away the blasphemous thoughts from his heart.

Gods are immortal, this is a reality recognized by the world.

At this moment, excluding all impossibilities, there is only one result left in front of the Golden Armored Hero.

"...Alchemist..."

"I remember you told me that these unbelievers think alchemy is another way to explain the world."

"Including the authority of the gods, the rules of the world, everything in this world can be explained in their way in theory, isn't that right?"

Asked in a low voice, as an old predecessor who died early, the golden armored hero confirmed with his juniors.

"Yes, there is such a thing, but sir, this is just their nonsense."

"After all, if it is true as they say, even the symbol of the gods' dignity and the natural power can be explained by alchemy, then why are they not gods?"

"The gods are the masters of the world, which shows that they are just a group of lunatics."

Silent, if it were in the past, the Golden Armored Hero would only agree with his subordinates' words. But at this moment, he couldn't help but be silent.

Using alchemy to explain the authority of the gods, such blasphemous remarks should certainly be criticized.

But what if... this is true?

Take a deep breath, the unknown brings fear, and terror brings awe.

And no unknown means no fear, and no fear means no awe.

The Golden Armored Hero doesn't know this truth, but he knows himself.

As early as when he was on earth, he was definitely the most devout believer in the gods.

But now, he doesn't dare to be so sure.

To this day, he is more loyal to the gods than to believe in them.

He will not betray the gods, but this does not affect his other ideas. For example, after gaining immortality, how to obtain other things that are equivalent to it.

Not only him, but also Perseus, the Perseus. Even as the son of the God King, he openly expressed his desire to become a god.

After all, those star gods who are regional gods are not his opponents at all, and if he wants to further fulfill the will of the God King, if he does not have the help of Athena, he can only do it himself.

"I'm really crazy..."

Looking at the silver shuttle in front of him, the golden armor hero was silent for a moment, but he finally made a decision.

He wanted to keep these alchemists and let these sinners who blasphemed the gods stop their exploration of taboos.

Of course, in order to ensure that they would not commit the crime again, he could only imprison them, and then find out what they did to violate the divine power.
