Chapter 92 Missed

In a haze, not knowing whether he was really drunk or pretending to be drunk, Iaptus walked through a garden and was supported by Moanda into a palace.

This is one of the palaces specially built by the God King. As a god who lives on the mountain all year round, he knows this place.

Elsewhere in Mount Odiles, Cronus, the lord of the sacred mountain, knew almost everything. As long as he wanted to, it would be difficult for any being below the original god without special authority to hide it from him.

But this neighborhood is different. Out of respect for his guests, the God-King will never pry here, and no matter what happens, no one will come close.

With Moanda's support, Iapetus leaned on the corner of the bed. He quietly waited for Fairy Nymph's next move, but the next moment, he was frightened awake by the other party's words.

"Dear God of Speech," Fairy Nymph straightened her expression and said with a smile, "I am here to pay homage to you, as ordered by Mother Earth."

Swish——

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Iapitus immediately sat up straight and forced himself to regain consciousness.

"What did you say?"

Looking at the nymph fairy in front of him with some disbelief, Iapetus even thought that he heard wrongly.

This is not a matter of carelessness. The reason why the God of Speech was unprepared for Moanda was because he believed too much in his priesthood. Previously in the underworld, Iapitus had met the goddess of deception, Apata, and experienced her power firsthand.

Under the influence of the priesthood, the words of the Goddess of Deception seem to contain magic, and can easily make everyone who hears believe what she says. But also through the priesthood of [Speech], Iapitus can easily identify the words in the other party's words. loopholes.

But today, until he came here, there was no warning in his ministry. The authority of the gods is absolute. Unless the difference in divine power between the two parties is too large, or there is overlap in the priesthood, there will never be any mistakes.

So if the nymph in front of him is not pretending to be a primitive god, it proves that the other party has not deceived him in any way.

"Don't get me wrong, I don't dare lie in front of you. In fact, everything I said before was from the bottom of my heart."

"I do admire the powerful true god, and I am indeed just an ordinary nymph. If I hadn't accepted the order from the Earth Mother this time, I would not have any contact with the gods. If you are willing, after the business is finished, I think we can still talk."

"However," Mo Anda said softly with a slight smile: "Compared with the matters between us, don't you plan to listen to what Mother Earth has to say?"

While listening to Moanda's explanation, Iapitus' mood gradually calmed down, and he gradually calmed down. Although the Earth Mother is indeed powerful, this is a sacred mountain and belongs to the domain of the God King.

Ever since he controlled the stars and subdued the mountains, Cronus' power as the god-king has grown day by day. Considering that the Earth Mother is not good at fighting, and has just been injured by the split in the priesthood, she may not be able to defeat the God King now.

So after thinking for a moment, the God of Speech said cautiously:

"No matter what the respected Mother of the Gods orders, this is the domain of the God King."

"You are so careful to meet me here. I am afraid that what you want me to do is not allowed by the God King."

"I don't know about that. Your Highness asked me to avoid the God King, so I naturally followed your orders."

"Since you don't want to know, I'll take my leave now."

As if he didn't care about his success or failure, Mo Anda gave a slight salute, turned around and planned to leave.

"etc."

Although Iapitus wanted to just watch her leave, he didn't allow himself to follow her here before.

Being aware of it in advance, pretending not to know, and coming in person and rejecting it are two completely different concepts.

Whether he intends to do it or not, a hearing is always needed.

"Let's be honest, what does Mother Earth want me to do?" After thinking about it for a while, Iapitus said slowly, "I will think about it before making a decision."

Stopping in his tracks, Mo Anda was not surprised at all by the other party's choice.

Just like in front of the true God, Nymph never had a choice. In front of the Earth Mother and the God King, ordinary true gods have no choice.

Some would choose to side completely with one side or the other, but Iapetus was certainly not one of them. He has only been living in the Holy Mountain for a while, and given his weak strength and the status of the Titan Ancient God, the God King has never asked him to do anything.

In Cronus' view, giving birth to Atlas, the god of strength, was Iapetus's greatest contribution to him.

"It's not something that wants you to go against the God King. In fact, the Earth Mother just wants to meet you."

With a smile, Moanda said:

"Actually, this is a good thing for you, isn't it? No one knows what the future of His Majesty the God King will be like, but as the original god who lives with the world, Mother Earth will definitely exist forever."

"Perhaps, your mission has been completed. I will decide by myself whether to go or not."

His face looked a little ugly, but in the end, despite what he said, Iapitus decided to go.

He didn't know whether the Earth Mother was eternal, but according to the prophecies and curses, there was a high probability that the God King was not. At least in his perception, although Cronus's strength is increasing day by day, there is still a significant gap compared with the former God Father.

As long as it's done discreetly, there shouldn't be any problem. At worst, he would find a remote place to hide until Cronus destroyed himself in the face of fate.

······

After the conversation, the God of Speech didn't stay with Moanda much longer.

He hurried back to the temple, found his two children, and asked them to go to the territory of Oceanus after the banquet. As for his wife Clymene, she was originally a member of the Oceanus goddesses and usually spent a lot of time on the sea.

Prometheus didn't understand his father's request, but he still followed Iapetus's wishes. Epimetheus still said nothing, but his father and brother didn't mean to ask for his opinion.

Two months later, the birthday party of the two daughters of the king of gods finally ended.

The gods returned to their respective territories, and Moanda also took the gift from Kronos to the mother of the earth and set off to return to the Delphi Plain.

Taking this opportunity, Iapetus also left the sacred mountain in a place where no one noticed.

Mixed among the many gods who left, the traces of the god of speech were not conspicuous.

No one paid attention to his whereabouts. In fact, this Titan god who liked to stay with humans has never had a sense of existence among the gods. Even the God King thought that Iapetus and his two children were going to a certain human tribe again.

After hurrying all the way, it was already seven days later when Iapetus arrived at the Delphi Plain.

Floating in the air, the God of Speech was about to fly directly to the residence of the Earth Mother, but suddenly, his eyes caught a glimpse of the human tribe built not far away.

Those were the golden humans who once stayed near the Delphi Oracle. Unlike those humans who lived on the sea or at the western end of the continent, they were by the side of the Earth Mother, and although Gaia rarely paid attention to them, they still avoided the impact of the God War.

Therefore, although these humans were also approaching the end of their lives, there was no change in their number. Their lives were primitive and constant, and they were basically not affected by other human tribes outside.

The God of Speech was a little curious. He and his two children had lived with different humans, but that did not include those in Delphi.

Because he was temporarily living in the sacred mountain, he always avoided this place.

"After I meet the Earth Mother, I'm afraid I'll be busy again. Although I don't know what the Mother Goddess wants me to do, it shouldn't be an easy task."

"Anyway, there's no specific time agreed upon, so I might as well take this opportunity to go and see the humans in the origin place. After all, due to the delicate relationship between Kronos and the Mother Goddess, I've never been here before."

After making a decision in his mind, Iapetus stopped. After a little thought, he gathered his divine power, turned himself into a big earthy yellow snake, then landed on the ground and crawled towards the direction of the human tribe.

He didn't intend to reveal his identity as a god, after all, he just came here to take a look. The humans here must respect the Earth Mother. If he reveals his true identity as a god, it will inevitably cause humans to worship him. He doesn't want to steal the show and cause the Earth Mother to be unhappy.

Following the paths opened by humans in the woods or in the wilderness, the God of Speech quickly moved forward on the Delphi Plain. The birds and animals on the road did not notice his presence, and no accidents happened. Iapetus easily sneaked into the settlement of the golden humans.

He entered Delphi in this way, and the God of Speech did not notice at all that there was actually a group of air currents that seemed to be born naturally floating in the sky around the great plain.

This group of air currents surrounded this place, rotating at a high speed, monitoring any life that approached. The snake that Iapetus turned into was also seen by it, but unfortunately, it did not find anything wrong with the snake.

Just as Iapetus could not see through the true form of the air current and identify it as Zephyros, the god of the west wind, the god of the west wind could not see through his transformation.

In other words, Zephyros did not expect that there would be gods coming here in this way, instead of flying in openly. He focused most of his energy on the gods passing by, rather than every animal that came in and out of here.

After all, except for himself and the king of gods, no one knew that Zephyros was ordered to come to monitor this plain, so he paid most of his attention to the sky and a little on the surface.

Maybe it was a coincidence, maybe it was destiny, anyway, when the two gods were unaware of each other's existence, they just passed each other.

Three days later, after finishing the visit in the human tribe, Iapetus met Gaia, the Earth Mother, in the Earth Mother's secluded place.
