My guess that Poseidon referred to before actually refers to my guess about why he refused to defect. In fact, I have not told Poseidon about this guess, and I have not even talked to anyone about it. Said. [ ] However, although I have not said it, Aphrodite, who went to meet the patron saints of the Seven Seas Pillars as a representative of our Frost Rose Alliance, did tell those patron saints about this matter. But judging from the situation at the time, they To make contact with Aphrodite, you should actually carry Poseidon on his back. However, now Poseidon actually said such a sentence, what does this mean? This shows that he has always been aware of the small actions made by these people under his command.
Those patron saints of the pillar thought they met Aphrodite secretly without telling Poseidon, but in fact their meeting was not secret at all. At least Poseidon was one of the two people they wanted to hide it from. Got this. As for why Poseidon knew that I also had such a guess, this is relatively easy to explain. As the president of the Frost Rose Alliance, I should know everything in the meeting. Besides, I am mainly paying attention to the work of the Olympus Protoss, so I must be the first to know all the information here. I knew it all at once. Well, since Aphrodite was able to bring up these speculations about Poseidon at the meeting, it's no surprise that I thought the same thing.
From this passage of Poseidon, I discovered two characteristics of Poseidon that are different from the rumors.
The rumored Poseidon is a greedy and somewhat stupid character, because in many cases he always loses more things in order to gain something, which means that his greed does not allow him to get any actual benefits. Generally speaking, situations like this are possible for everyone, but if it happens too many times, it only means that the person is stupid, and hopelessly stupid. This is how I viewed Poseidon before, because that's exactly what he did. However, it can be seen from this sentence that Poseidon is not only not stupid at all, but also very smart. Being able to know the contents of the meeting that his subordinates deliberately avoided him shows that Poseidon has his own, complete and secret intelligence system. No matter whether he established this system by himself or not, the thought of establishing such a system is the work of a fool. Besides, even if the intelligence system does not exist and this information was obtained by chance, he can guess what I am thinking based on this information alone. This is not something that ordinary people can do. This shows that Poseidon is not as greedy and stupid as the rumors outside.
Regarding the second characteristic of Poseidon that is different from the rumors, I think it is about Poseidon’s character.
According to rumors, Poseidon is a lecherous guy. This is not surprising at all among the Olympus Protoss. Anyway, there are basically few men and women in the entire Olympus Protoss who have a normal relationship. As long as you can think of it Living examples of relationships between men and women that challenge the limits of ethics can basically be found in the Olympus Protoss, especially Zeus, an old slut. He is simply an animal in heat, from his mother, aunt, aunt, to His own sisters and daughters, as well as the wives and daughters of his subordinates and brothers, plus some mortal women, and various female non-human creatures. Anyway, as long as he can give birth to children, he will not dare to have sex with them. In comparison, Poseidon's little problem is not a problem at all. However, although this thing about Poseidon is not a big deal at all, there are still many rumors about him that talk about all kinds of bad things caused by his lustful behavior, including many incidents in which he harmed others and bullied others. Anyway, Poseidon's reputation in the mortal world is basically caused by women, and it is rumored that he is extremely petty and likes to hold grudges.
However, it now seems that there should be a big difference between the reality and the rumors, because Poseidon obviously knew that his men wanted to rebel, but he didn't seem to care at all. If Poseidon was as petty as the rumors say, he would not have tolerated the rebellion of his men. But not only did he tolerate it, but various signs also indicated that he was probably the one who actively promoted this matter. He is clearly sacrificing himself to protect his subordinates. The most exaggerated thing is that he will not even be grateful for doing so, because he appears in the cognition of his subordinates as a villain. If it were not for Aphrodite This matter was brought up in the previous secret meeting. Maybe those guys from the Poseidon family will continue to scold Poseidon until they defect to our side. This kind of self-sacrifice for others, not only leaving no reputation and no profit, but willing to take the blame, is no longer something that can be explained by just being a good person. This is almost like becoming a saint. Of course, I don’t think this incident can prove that Poseidon is a saint. There should be other reasons for him to do this. It is also possible that the psychological changes of a man who is about to die but who speaks well also prompted him to make such a decision, but No matter what the reason is, he did it anyway, which determines that he cannot be classified as a villain.
Looking at the obviously unusual Poseidon in front of me, I hesitated for a long time before confirming: "Are you sure you know my guess?"
Poseidon nodded directly and said: "Yes, just like you guessed. I deliberately arranged for them to leave. I have known the little tricks of those guys for a long time. They fools are too careless in doing things. If it weren't for my people Help them cover up, they have been discovered by Zeus's spy three times."
Poseidon can say such words, it seems that my guess is correct. So I asked frankly: "So since you have decided to let them go, why don't you go yourself? You are willing to sacrifice yourself to let them go, which shows that you care about these people. Let's find another employer and continue. Wouldn't it be nice to do it? You don't always suspect that I like to deceive my own people just like Zeus, do you? "
"President Ziri is really good at joking. Don't you already know the answer? Why do you ask me again?"
"Since you know that I know, then you should know what I am asking."
Although what we said would have been confusing if a third person was present, as the parties involved, we both understood each other's meaning very well. After I finished speaking, Poseidon said directly: "You don't need to ask, it's useless for you to know about this matter. The reason why I see you here is to ask you to take away all my unsatisfactory subordinates, and be good in the future." Take care of them."
"Hey, hey, hey, don't act like you're leaving someone alone at the end of your life, okay? As far as I know, you can't die yet. Besides, your subordinates have stiff wings. They can still get nourishment without anyone."
"I may not be able to die, but it's almost as good as death. As for those little brats, they really can't survive without you."
"Why don't you tell me your concerns? Even if I really can't solve it, you can at least let me help you think of a solution? Besides, how do you know that I won't be able to solve it if you don't tell me?"
"This..." Poseidon was obviously hesitant, which showed that he still wanted to leave, but some reason restricted him.
"Why are you so worried? You said it yourself, staying is as good as dying. If you are still willing to stay, it means you are ready to face death. Since you are not even afraid of death, what are you afraid of? ?”
Poseidon shook his head and said, "No, you don't understand. Some things are really more terrifying than death."
"Wouldn't it be clear to me if you just say it?"
"I really……"
"Stop telling me what you can't say. I just want to know why you don't leave?"
Poseidon looked at me quite distressed, and then seemed to be caught in the battle between heaven and man. I knew that he was thinking and weighing, so I didn't disturb him and let him think quietly.
In fact, I originally thought this matter should be very simple, because at first I guessed that Poseidon might be equipped with an energy dispersion circle like Persephone. This kind of thing is very important to them like the Olympus Protoss. It may be unsolvable, but it's not a problem for me. What makes Zeus great is his personal strength, not his knowledge. We have never been afraid of anyone when it comes to playing with technology. However, it seems that things are definitely not as fake as we thought, because if Zeus really restrained Poseidon by some means, then with his current state of not being afraid of death, he should have no reservations It was only right to tell me, but he was really hesitant about this matter, as if he wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it. This is quite strange. Although it is helpless to have one's life threatened, it is not to the point where one cannot speak out, so there must be some other secret behind this matter.
Since Poseidon was thinking about something, I had no intention of disturbing him, so the empty hall was as quiet as if it were haunted. After waiting quietly for more than ten minutes, Poseidon across from me suddenly sighed, and I felt happy. Sighing means helplessness. If Poseidon was not going to tell me his troubles, he should tell me quietly instead of sighing, because making this choice already meant that he was heartbroken, so he would not sigh at all. So, since he sighed, it meant that he was helpless, but at least there was still hope. From this we can judge that he is planning to say it.
Sure enough, Poseidon quickly revealed the answer as I expected, but this answer was a bit shocking, and it was really beyond my expectations!
"You, you, you... what are you..." Looking at Poseidon in front of me, I didn't know what to say. Although I had discovered that Poseidon was inconsistent with the rumors, I didn't expect that it would be different. so much. Because, just now, Poseidon suddenly took off all the clothes on his body one by one, and after knowing that he was completely naked, he was still taking off his clothes, but this time he was not taking off his clothes, but... peeling off his skin.
That's right, Poseidon found an opening from his back, and then just like the painted skin in "Liao Zhai", he directly took off a layer of human skin from his body, and what was inside this layer of human skin turned out to be - sea water . There is nothing in Poseidon's body, only a ball of sea water, a ball of sea water that can change its shape at will, and it looks no different from the ordinary sea water outside.
"Are you a water element?"
