Chapter 74 The cycle of death and life, the plan of the God King

really!

Yang Qi saw that Styx's body erupted with bright light.

Her divine body began to shrink rapidly, shrinking into a silver orb.

Biya held the orb and remained motionless.

Buzz…

After a moment, the orb burst out with ripples of divine power, spreading out like a breeze.

It seemed to be alive, jumping in Bea's hand, and then shattered in a golden light.

In the void, thousands of black orchids bloomed.

A chubby blond baby sat on the petals. She was covered in golden feathers, her hands were in her mouth, and her blue eyes were full of curiosity.

There are still four powerful divine mists that are constantly injected into the baby girl's divine body.

Yang Qi thought in his mind: "Her power has become stronger."

"…It's like I've evolved!"

"I usually continue to absorb and consolidate my divine power, and my divine power will grow steadily. But every time I evolve, my divine power will experience exponential growth!"

"With her new life, her power has also increased explosively!"

"Styx died and turned into a baby."

"Is she constantly cycling between death and rebirth?…"

"I wonder how many times she has cycled between rebirth and death like this?"

"Every death and rebirth makes you stronger…how strong is Styx?"

Yang Qi could feel Bea's strength, and he could also feel Naji's divine power, but he couldn't feel Styx's strength at all.

"In historical records, Styx is not a famous god, and she has never been known for her combat prowess…"

"Stix is ​​so powerful, so how strong must those gods who are famous for their fighting prowess be?"

Wow…

There was the sound of surging water all around, and the dark red and black lake water – Styx's vomit, rose into the air, condensed together, turned into a dark red gem, and disappeared.

Wow…

Then, new lake water gushes out from all around, filling the temple. The lake water is clear and warm, exuding a touch of divine power.

Bea lowered herself and put Sticks into the lake. Sticks opened his eyes, biting his fingers, and floated on the water.

She slowly floated over and floated in front of Yang Qi.

The baby's lips smile.

"You pushed open the gate to the River Styx, dragon."

"Yes. Hello, noble God of Styx."

"You became friends with Bea," the baby said.

Yang Qi replied: "Yes."

"Very good. She is too easy to be deceived. Last time she wandered in the underworld, not a single piece of the golden armor around her was deceived when she came back."

"The last time I went to the underworld, I was deceived and not a drop of the divine dew was left."

"One more time…I won't say more."

"Every time, my spirit protects her secretly. If other creatures cheat her of treasures and weapons, I don't care. I want her to have a long memory and become smart."

"If you have other plans for her… ha."

"My spirit saw the entire interaction between you and her."

"You didn't lie to her…I like it very much."

Yang Qi thought in his mind: "Well… I got a lot of divine sickle fragments from her. But that's not a lie. I made an agreement with her and fought with her countless times."

The baby said slowly: "What do you want when you come here?"

"I want to save a soul."

Before Yang Qi said the words "Harpy", the baby nodded.

"I see. You want to save the Prisoner of Olympus."

The baby smiled: "I am loyal to Olympus, and no living creature can change my will."

"But I have my own way of loyalty – a little harpy that I can carry across the River Styx."

"But – you have to exchange something with me."

"what?"

"memory."

"Memory?" Yang Qi's heart moved.

"Queen of the Underworld – the memory of Persephone!"

The baby was like a fish in the water, swimming around Yang Qi, "I am loyal to the Olympus Court and to Zeus. But my authority and domain are in the underworld, and I must also be loyal to the great Pluto and Queen."

"You know… Hades, the king of Hades, is the supreme commander of the underworld."

"But – he hasn't spoken a word for a long, long, long time."

"Never left his dark throne."

"Almost all the orders in the underworld and the operations of the underworld are all controlled by the queen of the underworld."

"Hehe – you know that story, right -"

"How did Persephone, the queen of the underworld, come to the underworld?"

The baby yelled, jumped out of the water like a fish, and floated in the air. She was covered in golden feathers and stared at Yang Qi.

Of course Yang Qi had not seen it with his own eyes, but the stories in his memory came to mind.

Persephone, Queen of the Underworld, was snatched away by Hades!

Speaking of which, Hades is often portrayed as a gloomy, terrifying, and bloodthirsty demon king in various film, television, and game works of later generations.

But in the records of mythology – since Hades failed to compete with Zeus for the position of God King, he has been living in his temple of Hades for a long time and has almost no activities anymore.

The only thing he ever did was to steal Persephone as Queen of the Underworld.

"Hades is not so much a demon king, but… a super otaku." Yang Qi thought in his heart.

The baby said with a smile: "Hades snatched Persephone away – and then cut off her memory. Let her forget the past."

Then, the baby said softly: "What would happen if Persephone revived this memory?"

"…"

Yang Qi recalled the story in his memory.

According to mythology, Persephone was kidnapped by Hades and taken to the underworld. She desperately cried out for help, begging her mother of gods to save her.

Persephone had an extremely noble life experience – she was the daughter of Demeter, the goddess of agriculture.

Demeter is the sister of Zeus and his wife.

So from a blood perspective, Hades married his niece—and this was something Zeus acquiesced to.

Demeter is the goddess of agriculture, responsible for the growth of all crops in the world. She let all things wither and harvest nothing on the earth, thus threatening Zeus and asking Zeus to force Hades to return Hades to the Queen of the Underworld.

Hades reluctantly agreed – but he made the Queen of Hades eat four underworld pomegranates, which gave Persephone only four months a year to return to the divine realm.

The rest of the time, you must stay in the underworld.

Yang Qi thought: "It seems that in this world, Hades's strategy is not to let the Queen of Hades eat pomegranate seeds, but to cut off her memory and make Persephone forget her mother and father of gods. Her hometown."

Then he replied: "If the Queen of Hades regains her memory, she…will want to go home."

The baby smiled: "Correct."

"Almost all daily affairs in the underworld are handled by the Queen of the Underworld. If she wants to return to the God Realm, the underworld will fall into chaos."

"The strength of Hades and the underworld will be weakened."

The baby said word for word: "Overwhelmed by Zeus."

"…" Yang Qi was silent for a moment and asked, "Is this your plan?"

"It doesn't matter if I tell you, it has a lot to do with you." The baby said with a smile: "You know, I have dual allegiance to Olympus and the underworld."

"All loyalties are equal, but some loyalties are more equal than others."

"Do you understand what it means?"

"…" Yang Qi nodded, "You are more inclined to Olympus than to the underworld."

"So…this order comes from…"

The baby solemnly replied: "Yes. It comes from the God King Zeus."
