Chapter 623 The Ferryman Karon
Theoretically, only the ferryman can lead people across the river. However, there are no absolutes in the world. Everything has two sides, and there is no absolute thing.
The Emperor of the Sea has held back for so many years, and now is his time of glory. His subordinates quickly built a huge ship with a length of one thousand meters and a width of one hundred meters, and prepared to call everyone to cross it.
Ciara gathered a group of people to wait to board the boat. The Flash, who was full of scientific exploration spirit, wanted to study the composition of the water in the Styx. Fortunately, the eldest lady dragged him onto the boat quickly.
Everyone began to board the boat one after another, at this moment several gods simultaneously noticed a small boat rowing in the distance.
Thea was immediately overjoyed, and the gods and demigods who knew the inside story of Styx also looked gloating.
Caron, the ferryman of the River Styx, came here with a small boat. Hades had already contracted the river to him. He paid a certain amount every year and was responsible for his own profits and losses on weekdays. Today, he felt that a large number of creatures entered the River Styx, so he came naturally. have a look.
He knew it was broken when he walked halfway, the power of the gods was not concealed at all, so many gods, holding swords and swords, must not come to condolences to this lonely old man...
He couldn't turn around because of his duties. The old man looked thin and dry, with a pair of triangular eyes, how wretched and wretched he could be. In fact, his seniority was very high, and he was also a god!
Seeing the old man slowly rowing to the gods, Thea sighed in her heart. In her impression, Karon, the ferryman of the Styx, was just a Stygian fighter, but in this world, it is not that simple. He is the creation of the night The son of the goddess Nyx, and the same generation as the three goddesses of fate.
It's a pity that his era has long passed, or it has not come at all. In the face of powerful divine power, even a senior has to bow his head. He can beg for mercy from the junior Hades, so naturally he dare not offend Poseidon and Hera.
Thea is a new god to the Greek gods, and Hera is also a substitute for the descendants of the Creator God, and one wave overwhelms the other, which is why the gods fear the future.
Seeing the boat approaching, who will deal with it? The gods are making eye contact with each other.
Thea, who originally wanted to watch from the wall, felt the thread of fate tremble slightly. She did a lot of experiments in private, and now she can barely make use of a little function of this thread, that is, if she obeys the arrangement of fate, then the thread will be with her. Hair strands fit snugly.
If she wants to do something that is not planned by fate, the silk thread will suddenly rise up, which is a very typical reverse growth. Fortunately, the fate thread has a little connection with her now and is slowly accepting her, even if the level is far higher As for her elder brother, she couldn't see this hair that stood up suddenly.
On the issue of Caron, fate gave her two choices, one is to let the flow take its course and watch the excitement, and the other is to participate in it.
The veins of the world have their own inertia. It is too difficult to go upstream in the long river of fate. If you just want to get rid of the shackles of fate and go to a higher position than the heavenly father and Darkseid, then you cannot follow the established destiny. route to travel.
Start from the subtleties, get rid of fate little by little, keep the general trend unchanged, and make changes in small places, this is Thea's current policy.
"I'll deal with this guy." She directly asked Ying to negotiate with Karon who came in the boat.
The gods would naturally not object when they saw someone stand out, so Thea jumped directly onto the boat.
It's really wretched...Looking at this thin and withered old man in front of me, with a pair of dim triangular eyes, and a treacherous gaze, he charged every person who crossed the river. He can be said to be a rare rich man in the Three Realms, But he was dressed in tatters, like a scavenger.
She looked at each other, and Caron was also looking at her.
Today, Thea put on the silver and blue dress armor made by Zeus because she was going to participate in the battle of the Greek gods. In order to match Diana's red cloak, she asked Alameni to sew a blue thick one. For the cloak, the golden fleece I got before was not wasted, and I sewed a circle around the collar of the cloak.
Wrapped in a thick cloak and holding a holy sword, she is really majestic, although Diana couldn't understand why her lover called the cloak a quilt?
"Are you...are you going to pay the toll?" Caron asked boldly,
Especially when he saw Hercules sharpening his ax in the distance. From his point of view, this is to deal with errands, and he is going to go through the procedures. If the other party says he doesn't want to, he will go home and rest. As for Hades' death, it's none of his business.
Karon was already preparing to go back by punting, but Thea unexpectedly told him to stay where he was.
"We pay, how much?"
Cold sweat broke out in a flash. Caron hated these guys who didn't play cards according to common sense. You are such a mighty army, shouldn't you bully me, an old lonely family, and just leave without a bird? ? What are you talking about with me!
What Poseidon Hera Hades, you can hit whatever you want, one will be killed and the other will be killed. Karon is very old, and now he just wants to avoid trouble. His old dim eyes began to turn around, thinking about how to prevaricate Thea.
"Yo? Clearly mark the price, old man, you have a sense of service." He was pretending to be stupid, but Thea didn't let him go, and the young lady's eyes were shining with the brilliance of wealth. Out of curiosity, he took out a non-gold, non-silver and non-copper notice board from under the ship plank.
She also knew the characters, which were ancient Greek, and she immediately read out, "Ten for mortals, ten thousand for demigods, and one million for gods! Old man, you have a good way of making money!"
Then, under the horrified eyes of the old man, Thea used her wealth and divine power to convert an astronomical amount of Ming coins and handed them to Karon.
A mountain of ghost coins was handed over to Karon. If so much money was left in the past, this wretched old guy would jump up excitedly, but now he doesn't think so.
The old god must abide by the rules, even if this river crossing fee item is added by himself, it is also part of the rules, he has to admit it!
Karon accepted the river crossing fee with a bitter face, and Thea turned pale, staring at Karon with a half-smile. If you want to earn her money, you need to expect to lose all your pants.
Thea paid according to the regulations, which meant that the transaction between the two parties had already begun, and he had to send these people across the river according to his own regulations.
"Can't you cross the river by yourself? Why do you drag me? I don't have much fighting power!" The old man called out the injustice, but couldn't help it, and began to complain to Thea endlessly.
His regulations are clearly written to "lead people across the river". Although Poseidon has a huge ship, in order to reflect the word "belt", he must row a small boat in front of him to open the way. From a distance, he looks like a party leading the way. If you think about it with your butt, it's okay if Poseidon wins. If Hades wins, it's worth pondering about the future of his leading party.
Others went astray and boarded a pirate ship by mistake, but he was lucky, and directly defected to the enemy and became a leading party. In all dynasties, such people are the worst rulers will hate.
