Chapter 392 The Gap Between Gods and Humans

The Sun God can become the supreme god above all gods just by being the Sun God.

But the Moon God is different. He usually needs to possess other divine attributes to become a powerful god above all gods.

For example, in the far east Asia Minor Peninsula, the real authority of the Moon Goddess comes from her war divine attribute.

Bendis, the moon goddess in the Thracian region, also became a powerful goddess independent of the Sun God Helios because of her identity as a hunting goddess with war attributes.

On the Apennine Peninsula, the Etruscan Moon Goddess Minerva only has the identity of the Moon Goddess, so Minerva is not an independent goddess. She is the sister and subordinate god of the Sun God Jupiter.

Luna, the native Moon Goddess of the Apennine Peninsula, is a wandering god. She has not been given other divine attributes besides the Moon divine attribute by humans.

So the divine power of the Moon Goddess Luna is not strong, which is why Roy dared to challenge Luna.

When the Moon Goddess Luna waved a wooden spear to attack Hera, Roy ran to Luna and said loudly.

"Moon goddess Luna, let me be your opponent. If you can defeat me, I will worship you as the patron saint of the Athenian Empire."

After saying that, Roy swung his iron spear towards Luna's right ankle.

Luna stepped back to avoid Roy's attack, then looked down at Roy and questioned.

"Are you serious about what you said just now?"

As a native god of the Apennine Peninsula, Luna certainly knows how powerful the gods and humans of the Apennine Peninsula are.

The Athenian Empire has powerful weapons like dimensionality reduction strikes. Even if it cannot conquer the entire Apennine Peninsula, it can conquer half of the Apennine Peninsula.

Such a powerful Athenian Empire is willing to accept Luna, and Luna has no reason to refuse.

After all, neither the Sicurs nor the Latins and Sabines worship Luna as their patron saint, and the Etruscans have their own moon goddess Minerva.

If Roy gives enough chips, even if Luna attacks Quirinus, who is also a native god, Luna can accept this request.

Seeing that Luna was impressed by his conditions, Roy smiled and said.

"I don't like to joke! As long as you can defeat me and prove that you are a goddess worthy of my respect, I will make you one of the gods of the Athenian Empire."

"Then you will lose."

Luna said confidently.

"Although gods and humans live in the same world, they are lives in different dimensions. Even if I am a wandering god of the lowest level without a throne, I am still a real god. Even if you have been strengthened to the limit of humans by the power of gods, your essence is still human, and you can't break the dimensional boundary between humans and gods to defeat me."

After saying that, Luna waved the wooden spear and stabbed Roy.

Roy did not show weakness and used his iron spear to meet the attack.

There was a loud bang!

The blade of Luna's wooden spear and the blade of Roy's iron spear collided with each other.

The next moment, Roy's body began to retreat involuntarily.

Roy retreated while staring at Luna with wide eyes in disbelief.

I didn't expect that the difference in power between me and Luna would be so huge that I couldn't even stop Luna for a moment.

Even a human baby who couldn't even walk steadily could use his weight to crush a cat and make it unable to move -

This was the difference in power between Roy and Luna.

Sky Wings -

Since his power couldn't match Luna's, Roy changed his strategy and summoned his wings.

Flutter! Flutter!

With a flap of the wings behind him, Roy's body left the ground and flew high into the sky at great speed.

Just when Roy wanted to attack Luna's beautiful neck, Luna's body suddenly disappeared.

"If I continue to maintain the huge body of a god, you might seize the opportunity to stab me, so I will fight you in the body of a human!"

Luna's voice suddenly sounded behind him, and Roy turned around instantly, and saw that Luna had turned into a human girl, and her huge wooden spear had become only two meters long.

After exchanging glances with Roy, Luna smiled brightly and beautifully, then flew to Roy at great speed, wielding a wooden spear and launching a violent attack.

Roy tried his best to avoid Luna's attack, and only then realized the gap between his strength and Luna's.

Perhaps in order to avoid killing Roy, Luna did not use all her strength at this time.

After all, if Roy was killed by Luna, he would not be able to fulfill his promise just now and worship Luna as the patron saint of the Athenian Empire.

As if seeing through Roy's thoughts, Luna suddenly said.

"Now I have used all my strength on you, but your speed is too fast, so I always miss you."

"If you are not lying - although I can't fight against the lowest level of gods, I can escape from you!"

Although human babies can use their weight to press cats to be unable to move, cats want to escape from human babies, and human babies will never catch up with cats.

Faced with such a result, Roy could only smile bitterly.

"Goddess Luna! I am very satisfied with your performance. I will make you the patron saint of the Athenian Empire as promised. Now go and help Goddess Hera."

"No problem!"

After agreeing to Roy's request, Luna transformed back into a 100-meter-tall god, then waved a wooden spear and attacked Quirinus together with Hera.

Even in a one-on-one battle with Hera, Quirinus could only barely remain undefeated.

Now Luna also came to attack Quirinus. Quirinus was immediately defeated under the siege of Hera and Luna and was forced to flee from the battlefield.

After Quirinus fled the battlefield, Hera not only did not thank Luna for her help, but stared at Luna with cold eyes and said.

"Nosy guy! Even without you, I can defeat Quirinus."

Luna explained tactfully and lowered her posture.

"I am fulfilling the emperor's request. I am very sorry to upset you."

At this time, the war between gods ended, but the war between humans continued.

Seeing that Caesar had been unable to lead the Athenian soldiers to defeat the coalition of Metius and the Sabines, Roy, who had lost his patience, decided to join the war.

After all, every second that the war lasted, Athenian soldiers were injured or even died.

Caesar could not care about the sacrifice of the Athenian soldiers, but Roy could not care.

Because the Athenian soldiers were not Caesar's soldiers, they were Roy's soldiers.

Roy was like a tiger pouncing into two flocks of sheep. He came directly to Caesar and Metius who were fighting, and knocked Metius to the ground with the spear of the iron spear.

Then, without waiting for Metius to stand up from the ground, Roy put the spear blade of the iron spear against Metius' neck and threatened.

"Metius, I order you to surrender. If you refuse to surrender, my spear blade will kill you."

"I don't accept it!"

Facing Roy's threat, Metius said loudly.

"I am fighting with Caesar, and you defeated me with a despicable sneak attack. I demand a fair one-on-one fight with you. I will surrender to you only if you defeat me in a fair fight."

"You demand a one-on-one fight on the battlefield?"

Roy looked at Metius with a look of stupidity.

"If you are really hopelessly stupid, then I don't need you to surrender."
