Chapter 545 More than One
"Well, the accident is over. In the end, we didn't help much. The ancient evil still attacked the seal, but fortunately no more serious consequences occurred."
"But although the Death Star is not dead, it is still incomplete, but the impact it caused is far-reaching. You probably have to be busy... Hercules, hurry up and finish what you have to do. I'm afraid it won't be long before this place will be lively."
Shaking his head and smiling, Ander didn't really care about the shocking changes brought by the ancient evil.
Anyway, the barrier has not collapsed yet, and for him, this is enough.
"By the way, Nikki, what do you think of the guy named Perseus over there? Speaking of it, he is quite capable - you see, the matter is not over yet, and he has already thought about how to explain it."
"Hmph, I know, I can hear what he is saying!"
"You have a conflict, right? This is how the descendants of Zeus are... Then you can solve it yourself."
With a light hum, the artifact rang slightly. A bit of sharpness flashed on the tip, as if to poke a hole in the son of the God King over there, but after hesitating for a moment, Nikki gave up this tempting idea.
Although she had long disliked Perseus, a human hero who was clearly here to deal with the Heroic Spirits, but he was not doing his job every day and put the business aside.
But in the past, they were able to do their job well, and seeing the various assistance provided by the Olympus family to the Hall of Heroes in the human world, she just let it go.
But what Nikki never expected was that now even Perseus dared to neglect his duty in guarding the star field.
If the Heroic Spirit Guards sent to the edge of the star field issued a warning in advance, she would have had time to arrive first and build a stronger barrier with [Hall of Heroes] as the core to block the invasion of the ancient evil, instead of waiting until it arrived in front of her and then watching the Death Star come to the front of the barrier.
If someone else had made this mistake, Nikki would have stabbed him with a spear, and even erased the soul mark of the other person in Valhalla. However, the one who caused the consequences was Perseus... So although she felt uncomfortable, Nikki did not punish him directly.
‘It’s so annoying... But I’m just a weapon. ’
‘Even if you want to kill the son of the God King, Athena should give the order. But then again, they seemed to be fighting each other before, so if that’s the case...’
The artifact rang softly and drew an arc in the air, and Nikki felt a little uncomfortable. After circling around Hercules, the goddess of victory made a decision in her heart.
"The conflict between you has nothing to do with me. Anyway, no matter what, the Heroic Spirit will not die completely."
"However, in view of Perseus's mistake, I, as the custodian of [Hall of Valor], will temporarily deprive him of the right to use [Perseus]."
"Okay, I'm going to check the barrier. Anyway, you are all sons of Zeus. I think he can't say anything wrong no matter how you fight each other."
After the decision was made, the Spear of Walker rang again, but this time the sound was much lighter.
Niki then turned into a stream of light and pointed directly at the broken brown star.
"...Reclaim the right to use [Perseus]? This is a good idea. Without that armor, Perseus is not your opponent."
Looking at Niki's figure going away, the puppet nodded. It seems that just as he thought, the weapon lady under the goddess of wisdom also has no good feelings towards Olympus.
"How about it, have you thought about how to deal with them?"
"Of course."
"We have no grudges, but he persecuted the goddess who did nothing wrong in the human world first, and then sent his men to embarrass me. All these things are the grudges he created with his own hands."
"In that case, let him be a real heroic spirit. Although the heroic spirit is immortal, he doesn't have to keep his identity as a demigod in the human world."
Without the divine armor [Perseus], Perseus's power can no longer stop him, so Hercules speaks out his plan.
As the son of the king of gods, the other party is rarely granted immortality as a heroic spirit while he is alive. This is also the reason why he is not completely controlled by [Hall of Valor] and still wants to gain more powerful power.
Even now, he has not given up this idea. With the help of the divine power that has not yet dissipated, the great hero can hear the movement over there like Ander and Nikki.
At this moment, Perseus was looking for a culprit for this sudden disaster, and there was no doubt that he, the outsider who "actively attacked" the patrol and then "took the opportunity to come to the door", was the best person to blame.
Hercules didn't care whether he took the blame or not, but he was indeed more disgusted with the other party's attitude.
The heroes in myths and legends were just like this... The great hero simply decided to destroy the other party's body, making him a real heroic spirit, and from then on, he would take it as his responsibility to eliminate evil things, instead of making more mistakes for his own purposes.
"By the way, Lord Ande."
Perseus was not a difficult opponent, but Hercules seemed to have thought of something before he took action.
He hadn't had time to check the stream of light that flew towards him before. The halo seemed to have entered the relics of a demon, and he didn't know what it looked like at the moment...
"Don't worry, Hercules, I know what you want to say, but wait until you get back."
"I have already felt a strong divine power approaching the Zodiac Star Region. If nothing unexpected happens, it is Aether, the God of Skylight."
"His divine power is stronger than mine. He is an ancient god born at the end of the First Era. He was born on the edge of Eternal Night and Darkness. When he came to the world, he even witnessed the existence of the Lord of the Sky. He has already entered the realm of powerful divine power. Even I am not his opponent."
"So if you don't want to cause more trouble, then quickly deal with the things here. After all, he should be the first one. The Zodiac Barrier has been touched, and I don't know how many people are affected."
"Okay."
He responded briefly. Even if there is no God of Skylight, Hercules hopes to go back and see the situation quickly.
The trajectory of the Death Star is exactly where he came from. I don't know how Prometheus and Amon are doing now.

Buzz...
Hua La La...
...
The core of the Zodiac Domain, the midpoint of the Great Barrier.
Rising and falling like the tide, the corona on the bloody sun flows endlessly.
The golden network enveloped the heaven and earth, spreading across the four corners of the space. Threads were embedded in every gap of the law, they intertwined and bound the blood sun in the middle.
As the substantial master of the starry sky, the uncrowned supreme of light and heat in the world, half an era has passed, and under the blessing of the power of the outer gods, the breath it exudes has become more and more terrifying.
But at this moment, the blood sun, which had just completed a riot, was particularly quiet. The liquid that flowed like water on the surface became thinner and gentler, and even the increasingly crystal clear tree on the back of the sun was a little depressed and sluggish.
Since the birth of the ecliptic barrier, this huge array rooted in the ecliptic star field has been constantly extracting the part of the blood sun that belongs to the [sun], and then suppressing its other part.
This is also the reason why the concept of [constellation] can be so easily transformed from virtual to real, because the sun itself is the supreme of the light body, and the ancient sun god once made a large number of star gods fall into eternal sleep in anger.
So whenever the Blood Sun rises up to resist, it is actually using its own power to fight itself. Even if there is no god personally presiding over the barrier, it still cannot break free.
As the sun god, Helios also has no way to deal with this. The only response strategy he can think of is to relax restrictions in the name of the Lord of the Sun and increase the degree of infection by the foreign gods.
The long years have passed in a hurry. Today, behind the blood sun, the crystal-clear tree has covered half of the star, and its crown is covered with transparent leaves.
The roots of the tree penetrate the surface of the sun and go straight into the core of the star. Just like absorbing nutrients from the soil, the golden-red liquid keeps flowing up from the roots, supplying the growth of the entire giant tree.
In the core of the sun, Helios' figure has long disappeared, only a root remains here, absorbing the essence of this place.
The growth of the giant tree absorbs the power of the sun, but the first thing it absorbs is the part that was once the sun god.
There is no mistake in the first post. Take a look at the 6-9 book forum!
And Helios's consciousness has long been transferred with his origin and has become the core of the giant tree.
"..."
"Huh... Zodiac Great Barrier... I will tear it down sooner or later."
A long breath, accompanied by the vibration of the void.
Existence itself is like before the interpretation of the 'perfect' giant tree, Helios's consciousness slowly condenses here.
With one breath, the blood sun expands and retracts.
It is unknown how long it took for the sun god to recover some spirit.
Opening his eyes, Helios stretched out his hand. A slender branch immediately dropped from the crown of the tree, carrying a red light and shadow and falling beside him.
Holding the light and shadow in his hand, the sun god looked at it carefully for a moment. But the more he observed, the more solemn his expression became.
A true god-level power, perhaps because it has been accumulated for a long time, from the perspective of 'quantity', it is indeed quite considerable.
If it were any other existence, even if it was another ancient evil creature wandering the world, this would be a great tonic that would greatly increase the other party's strength.
However, for Helios, who controls the bloody sun, this light and shadow seems a bit dispensable.
Judging from the size of the sun itself, if there was no division of the divine duties by the will of the world, it would probably have condensed its own complete symbol long ago. Its accumulation in the realm of true gods has already reached its peak, and whether there is this light and shadow does not affect its own strength.
From the perspective of the power bestowed by the outer gods, the branch that once took root and sprouted on the sun came from the body of the flesh and blood mother tree, which is far from being comparable to the ancient evil creature separated by a layer.
And even from the perspective of helping himself to break free from the seal, Helios also did not understand the meaning of the other party's doing so.
He even regretted his previous response a little now, because the practice of the Death Star was completely to die, and the damage it caused to the ecliptic barrier could be said to hurt the enemy 800 and hurt himself 3,000.
If he was the one who made the decision, Helios would never let the Death Star attack the barrier itself. He would not even let it try to destroy the layout around [Hall of Valor], which would be useless.
In contrast, he hoped that it would wantonly destroy the rules and order of the Zodiac Star Region, and then use this to shake the foundation of the barrier.
"Huh..."
"So, what is the meaning of doing this?"
"Letting an ancient evil creature that could have been very useful die without bringing me any substantial benefits."
"Thousands of years have passed in the human world, and I don't know how long it has passed in the starry sky... It didn't come to help me when I needed help the most, but now it is doing this useless work... How come you corrupted the Mother Earth and inherited her way of thinking?"
The voice was not loud, and there was no one else here, but Helios was not talking to himself, because in this red shadow, the sun god felt a similar idea to the branch he had in the past.
It came from the outer god, which represented the other party's will. This is why Helios was not impatient, because although the behavior of the Death Star was ridiculous, he believed that there must be other reasons.
"Mother Earth? The sun from a foreign land, are you referring to Gaia, the mother earth in the mythology of this world?"
"What a coincidence, although I walk on her body, I have not seen her yet. From what you said, is this an ancient god who is good at hiding his plans under the absurd surface?"
"Who is it!"
Boom!
His expression changed, and the voice came into his ears, and Helios's face changed suddenly.
How could it be possible? Being in the core of the sun, with the giant tree that covers the sky and the branches of the mother tree behind him, even the existence of great divine power would never hide his tracks in front of the power of the foreign gods.
Huge power gathered around him, and the sun god was about to take action, but he could not find where his opponent was.
However, at this moment, a vague idea finally came from the red shadow in front of him.
The giant tree behind him swayed slightly, as if telling him that this was the will transmitted from the flesh and blood mother.
No one in this world can disguise himself in front of a part of the mother tree. After all, even the authority of the same status needs to be supported by equal power.
"This is..."
His eyes changed, and the information was transmitted to his heart. When Helios accepted this idea completely, he was shocked for a moment.
What does the mother tree mean by this? There are more than one foreign god in Chaos?
And now, the other party came to him with the mother tree's idea.
