Five Hundred and Fifty-Two Old Friends? Bad Luck?

(Thank you very much for the 1888 reward from "The East of the House"! And the rewards from "Wind Feather Falling Flowers" and "Thunder"!)

"Is there a close relationship with the goddess of the earth?" Noah narrowed his eyes, meeting Perseus' gaze, and said.

"Are you talking about Athena?"

"Athena?" Perseus's eyes lit up, and he laughed happily.

"So that's what it is. Do you still have an extraordinary relationship with that goddess?"

In Greek mythology, Perseus beheaded Medusa, the goddess of snakes, and dedicated it to Athena, the goddess of wisdom. This is a very famous story.

However, Athena and Medusa are actually the co-existence of the Trinity.

That is to say, Athena is Medusa, and Medusa is Athena.

And as the Hero of Steel who achieved great deeds by slaughtering the dragon and snake, Athena, who is the goddess of the snake, is undoubtedly a deadly enemy.

No matter which godhead or origin, Perseus in front of him has an inseparable relationship with Athena.

In other words, the so-called disgusting aura that Perseus felt on Noah's body is probably the aura of Athena.

Thinking of this, Noah took out a badge made of obsidian.

The moment he saw the badge, Perseus narrowed his eyes, and became a little smirk.

"Boy, you seem to have something interesting."

Unlike Perseus.

Behind Noah, the dying dragon lying on the ground seemed to have a completely different reaction to the badge in Noah's hand, and let out a slightly joyful whisper.

"Buzz!"

At this time. The Gorgon Stone in Noah's hand trembled, emitting a faint light.

"Roar----!"

The dying dragon immediately revived. There was a loud dragon chant like the echo of the light, and then the whole body emitted a faint light.

It turned into a cloud of cyan light, following the light of the Gorgon Stone, pouring into the Gorgon Stone like flowing water.

After a while, the spirit of the entire land of Naples, which was transformed into a dragon, was integrated into the Gorgon Stone.

At this moment, Noah felt that the power hidden in the Gorgon Stone seemed to become stronger.

Now, if Athena recovers the Gorgon Stone and regains the status of the queen of the Trinity, the power should also be relatively enhanced, right?

Anyway. Now that the essence of this land has been turned into pure power by the Gorgon Stone, the earth essence in Naples should be restored soon.

After all, both Athena and Hera are goddesses of the earth, and the symbol of the goddess of the earth is the snake.

Being absorbed by Athena's snake means that this land has fallen into the control of Athena. As the goddess of the earth, Athena will also give corresponding blessings, so that the spirit of this land can be fed back to the earth itself. There will be no more sequelae.

Noah breathed a sigh of relief, and took the Gorgon Stone back into his pocket. Raising his eyes, he looked at Perseus, who was watching this scene, but did not stop it, just watched with a smile. Open your mouth and say.

"You appeared on the ground because of the appearance of the dragon as the enemy, and now the enemy has disappeared. You should also return to the myth---such a thing seems unlikely."

"I am a hero, and the people will expect the hero to be active. I like the deeds of heroes fighting, and heroes will fight for the worship of their own people. Show them your bravery, how can you leave before you are fully active? " Perseus suddenly smiled.

"God-slaying warrior, you have taken away my active stage, and you are the messenger of Athena, so you can give me a battle to show my strength!"

"I'm not some kind of Athena's messenger, I just have a bad relationship with her." Noah sighed.

"In that case, can you give up the fight and just go back to the mythology?"

"There is only one way for us to return to the myth, and that is to eliminate our body that appeared on the ground. Unless you defeat me, otherwise, even if I want to return, it will not be possible." Perseus raised the Haodao, as if he was performing a stage play, purposely uttered gorgeous words.

"Throughout the ages, human beings have had the habit of praying for the blessings of the gods, but only a very small number of lucky people can get the favor of the gods, and you godslayers are plundering the power of the gods who can bestow blessings on mankind. Disrespectful, I will definitely cut you under the sword, this is my duty as a hero!"

Without giving Noah a chance to reply, Perseus' body suddenly turned into a light and shadow, like a flash of light, and suddenly rushed towards Noah's direction.

However, when Perseus rushed in front of Noah, Noah suddenly disappeared in place like a mirage, leaving only an afterimage.

"Shuh——!"

Perseus slashed down directly with the mighty knife, cutting and dispelling the afterimage left by Noah like fog.

Suddenly, Perseus uttered an exclamation, and with a giant knife in his hand, he jumped and left the place.

"call----!"

At the same time, a figure suddenly appeared and punched Perseus at the place where Perseus was originally standing, because Perseus disappeared after his backward jump fell through the air.

"God Slayer! Your feet are really fast! And this power is really familiar!"

Perseus uttered a cry, and kept jumping up and down while shouting, as if avoiding something, dodging left and right, never staying in place for too long.

And every time Perseus jumped away, an illusory figure would appear near where he was originally standing, swinging his fist at Perseus, and disappearing after landing in the empty space.

Apparently, Noah was using the incarnation of the phoenix to enter the world of super speed, and launched a fierce offensive against Perseus at a speed that even the gods could not keep up with.

However, Perseus, as a hero of steel, is not a vegetarian. Even though his naked eyes and body couldn't keep up with Noah's speed, he still sensed Noah's attack and evaded in a small range.

At the moment of the attack, Noah still had to release the incarnation of the phoenix and withdraw from the state of super speed.

It was at this moment that Perseus was able to dodge reluctantly, but he still looked a little embarrassed after all.

However, as his body became more and more embarrassed, Perseus' eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally he even laughed out loud.

"I finally recognized this power. It is my old friend, the power of the God of Victory named Veleslana. No wonder you are so familiar with it. Godslayer, your luck is very bad!"

Saying such a sentence, a sun-like halo appeared behind Perseus, bursting out with dazzling brilliance.

"Buzz!"

Under the dazzling light, Noah, who had disappeared, suddenly appeared from a corner, with a shocked expression on his face.

At this moment, Perseus, who was holding a huge knife, appeared in front of Noah, with an expression of winning.

"I saw you! Godslayer!"

The sound just sounded, and the great knife in Perseus's hand turned into a flash of light, slashing through Noah's chest fiercely.

"Pfft——!"

Amidst the tearing sound, a burst of bright red blood splashed directly on Noah's chest, who jumped up towards the rear at some point, and a huge hideous wound appeared on his chest.

Pain hit Noah's mind.

"————!" Feeling the severe pain in front of him, Noah clenched his teeth tightly, and followed the step of retreating after avoiding the fatal injury at the last moment, pointing his toes repeatedly, and Perseus put some distance away.

"Oh? Have you avoided it?" Perseus's voice sounded calmly.

"As expected of my old friend, the godslayer who has usurped the power of the god of victory who has never tasted a defeat."

Looking at the calmly smiling Perseus, Noah held the wound on his chest, and while his palms were stained red, he cast his cold eyes on Perseus.

"what did you do to me?"

At the same time that the light wheel appeared behind Perseus, Noah, who entered the world of speed, found that in his heart, some changes had taken place on the stone disk with ten incarnations connected on its outline.

The pattern representing the incarnation of the phoenix actually dimmed at that time.

In other words, Perseus invalidated Noah's Phoenix.

What exactly is going on?

Could it be, is that the power of Perseus? (To be continued..)
