Volume 19, Chapter 152: The First Think Tank in the Underworld
"As for my identity, I think Pandora you can ask Ares. He should remember me."
Hearing my words, Pandora and Rhadamantis immediately focused their attention on Ares, and Ares immediately responded: "He is Ziri. The guy who helps us manage the Ring of Commandments."
"It turns out it's you." Pandora nodded and said, "No wonder you dared to arrest us. Tell me, what do you want to do by arresting us this time? Although I know that there is a 10% chance that we will not be able to go back this time. But since you didn’t kill us right away, it means we are still valuable. Since you left us, tell us what else we can do, and what kind of consequences our actions will bring to us. as a result of."
"As expected of Hades's female steward, her work efficiency is indeed very good." I clapped my hands and praised him, and then said seriously: "Since you asked so directly, then I won't I’m going in circles with you. Let me tell you my purpose first. The reason why I’m arresting you this time is actually because of the recent expansion of your Olympus clan.”
The King of the Underworld among the Olympus Protoss was originally Hades, but Hades himself basically did not interfere with the specific things in the Underworld. The ones who really manage things in the underworld are Pandora and the three giants of hell headed by Rhadamantis. It allows Hades to safely hand over the management of the entire hell without interfering at all. Although the personal relationship between Pandora and Hades is also a reason, if Pandora does not have that ability, I think Hades He wouldn't really let her take over such an important matter. This shows that Pandora's intelligence level and management ability are quite outstanding.
Because of his extraordinary intelligence, Pandora immediately realized the problem when I just said that the reason for arresting them this time was because of the expansion of their Olympus clan. "Could it be that Ditans and Philindir sent you here?"
"You are indeed very smart, but there is something wrong with your wording." I turned to Ares and said, "I mean Ares, could you please explain to your companions the relationship between me and Ditans?" ?”
Although Ares is impulsive, he also knows that he often causes trouble. In this situation, he behaves quite calmly, not because he is smart enough, but because he knows that he is not smart, so he puts negotiations and the like The work was given to Pandora, who was definitely smart enough in his opinion. Anyway, he just had to wait until the talks collapsed and then fight. But having said that, it seems that in the current environment it doesn't matter whether he takes action or not. After his power was sealed, he couldn't even think of defeating anyone. Of course, in fact, he had never won a battle even if his power was not sealed.
Precisely because he knew that he was not suitable for negotiation, Ares obediently told Pandora about my relationship with Ditans and the others after I finished speaking. Although Ares's eloquence is not very good, he can still explain things clearly under Pandora's inquiry. Soon Pandora understood why I said she had used the wrong words. It's not because her expression was incorrect, but because she misunderstood the status relationship between Ditans and I.
Like most of the protoss who have never seen me, they all think that the protoss is aloof and does not take any mortals seriously. Therefore, after Pandora knew that I came because of the expansion of the Olympus Protoss, her first reaction was that I was sent by Ditans to perform the mission. However, now she finally figured out that I was not sent here, but hired. Although they both help Ditans, the gap between the two is not that big.
"Okay, I didn't understand the situation. Now let me sort it out again. If I'm not mistaken, according to you, you were hired by Ditans, Philindil and Marilyn to contain us. Olympus’s expansion operation, and the method you chose is to capture us and threaten the Olympus Protoss, right?”
"No, no, no, there is no point in threatening you." I shook my head and said, "The most terrifying enemy is the unknown enemy, not the known enemy, so I will not use you to threaten the Olympus Protoss. , that would not do any good except making the entire Olympus Protoss become hostile to me. Your status may be quite noble within the Olympus Protoss, and it can indeed affect the behavior of some of the Protoss. For example, Hades will definitely I am willing to use a truce in exchange for your freedom. But Hades is not the only one in your Olympus clan. It is not a secret that the three major gods of yours have conflicts with each other, right? If you can make Hades lose I think both Zeus and Poseidon will be very happy to have a right-hand man."
"Since you don't want to use us to threaten the Olympus Protoss to give up their expansion plan, then why are you arresting us?" After Pandora asked, I did not answer her immediately. She also slowly fell into deep thought. As I expected, just After hesitating for a few seconds, she suddenly reacted. "Do you want to use our disappearance to attract their attention and make the Olympus Protoss feel that the country is no longer safe, and then 'force' them to withdraw their main force and focus on the country?"
"I really appreciate you more and more. But your guess is not completely right, because you know less things after all. In addition to the idea you just mentioned, I actually have another idea, which is to use you His disappearance is used to blame the *** Protoss."
When Pandora heard this, she immediately realized what she said and exclaimed: "The news we just received before we were arrested said that someone had been knocked down on the Temple Mount. I didn't expect that it was you who did it?"
To be honest, I was also shocked by Pandora's words. "Hey, how many spies have your Olympus clan planted in other countries? It was only a few hours from the time I brought down the Temple Mount to the time I arrested you, and you actually know it all?"
Pandora said confidently: "Although the secrets between the protoss are relatively easy to protect, the intelligence work of our Olympus protoss is not average. Besides, you have brought down the temple after all. Mountain, that movement was really too big. In fact, this matter was not sent by our intelligence personnel, but was specially sent by us to ask. When the Temple Mount collapsed, we also felt it in Greece. There was some shock, so we sent someone to ask, but when they came back they told us that someone had knocked down the Temple Mount."
"Now that you know this, you should understand my plan, right?"
Pandora nodded and said: "I think I can guess what you mean. Catching us is only the first step. Your real plan is to use our disappearance to frame the attack on the Protoss, and then the main attack force of our Olympus Protoss will be Will turn to the *** Protoss, so that you have completed the task given to you by the Ditans. It can be said that your plan is perfect, but I would like to know why you want to use the method of framing the blame?" At this point Pandora suddenly started thinking again. "Wait a minute, you knocked down the Temple Mount of the *** Protoss before, which means you have been to the Temple Mount before. With your identity, it is impossible for you to deliberately fall out with the *** Protoss on the Temple Mount from the beginning. So you must have had a dispute with them for some reason, and then you just didn't stop doing anything, and directly brought us and the *** Protoss together so that we both fight with each other, and you just reaped the benefits. As for why you You will fall out with the *** protoss. I think it is most likely because you accepted the benefits from Ditans and wanted to ask the miser Jehovah for a share of the benefits. In the end, he not only refused to give it, but also made trouble for you. Then You two have completely fallen out. My guess is correct, right?"
Bang bang bang... I slapped my hands hard. "To be honest, I feel more and more that you are a very likable person." I said and continued: "Okay, I have made my purpose of arresting you clear. Now let me tell you something. My thoughts on you.”
Pandora reached out her hand again to stop me from talking, and then she said on my behalf: "You don't need me, I think I also know what you are thinking."
"Oh? You know? Tell me."
Pandora smiled and said: "You have no grudges against us, the Olympus Protoss. The reason why you attacked us is entirely because of Ditans' employment mission. You want to get benefits, but you don't want to hurt us Olympus." The Protoss was offended to death. So you did not kill us immediately. If my guess is correct, you should put us back after this incident is over. Of course, the premise is that the Olympus Protoss defeated** *Based on the premise of the Gods."
After Pandora said her speculation, she looked at me with a proud face, waiting for my surprise again, but unfortunately, what she waited for was my denial. "It seems that you are not able to become a roundworm in my stomach for the time being. Of course, it may also be because you don't understand my character and strength. As for the reason why you didn't kill you in the first place, that's it. That's right. I really don't want to offend the Olympus Protoss prematurely, but that's just because I don't want to offend them prematurely, not because I really don't dare to offend. So, no matter what happens to you Olympus Protoss and ** after this war *Whoever wins the victory among the gods, I will not put you back again."
"What?" After hearing my words, Pandora showed a frightened and frightened expression for the first time since she was caught here. The reason why she was so calm before was not because she was not afraid of death, but because she guessed that she would not die, so she was so calm. However, what I just said really scared her. Because I said I don't plan to let them go back, that means their value may not lie in their identities, but in their bodies. In this case, they still cannot escape death. Of course, another way to use them is to persuade them to surrender and let them join our Temple of Chaos and Order. However, although Pandora is smart enough, her thoughts are restricted. She always believed that we were inferior to the gods, so she didn’t think that I was so bold as to dig them, the high-level gods of the Olympus gods, into my own temple. Because to do that would mean facing the wrath of the Olympus Protoss head-on, and Pandora thinks we cannot afford that consequence.
However, she was completely wrong this time. She underestimated my courage and our strength. I'm not afraid of the Olympians at all.
