Greece Brings Evildoers - Chapter 220

Chapter 220: If the Queen of Hades does not give up, I am willing to be my adoptive mother

By the River Styx, the light patterns on the ground rhymed, and a dark vortex appeared here, from which four figures were spit out one after another.

 “Ahem…”

Accompanied by bursts of coughing, the comatose Thetis slowly woke up, looked around, and then looked at Lorne next to her, with a look of astonishment in her eyes.

 “Horn of Plenty?”

Lorn heard Thetis’s murmur, his eyes passed over the golden branch of the garden in his hand, and looked down.

I saw a curved ram’s horn with a color like gold and engraved with incantations, lying quietly on the ground. A rich breath of life flowed out of it, dispelling the death energy nearby.

Thetis looked at the genuine Horn of Plenty and couldn’t help but ask,

 “She gave it to you?”

“Seems to be.”

Lorne nodded subconsciously, and then saw Thetis’ increasingly weird expression and eyes, realizing that the woman had probably gone astray, and quickly spoke to clarify.

“It’s not what you think. She seems to have mistaken me for one of her relatives and hopes I can spend more time with her.”

As he spoke, Lorne told the sea goddess in front of him everything that happened between him and Persephone after Thetis was unconscious.

Several life and death experiences have made him completely trust this partner.

What’s more, in the garden of the Queen of Hades, Thetis directly offered to stay as a hostage in order to allow him to leave safely.

 In terms of both emotion and reason, one should not hide anything from Thetis.

After listening to Lorne’s narration, Thetis also frowned seriously and gave serious advice.

“I also think Persephone is right to worry. You’d better stay away from that woman.”

“If possible, of course I don’t want to get involved with her, but isn’t there no choice?”

Lorne pointed to the Wheel of Hecate on his chest and smiled helplessly.

He is now certain that the goddess of the dark moon, as the manipulator behind the scenes, definitely has other intentions. Even if he uses the [possibility] he inherited to subvert Olympus, he may not be the final winner.

  More likely, after catching the singing cicada, it became the food of the oriole.

 But for now, he cannot break away from Hecate’s control, nor can he completely shake Olympus’s ability. He can only seek skin from the tiger first and use its strength to fight.

However, this trip to Hades did give him some unexpected gains.

—Hades is not monolithic, and Hecate’s control over Hades is not as strong as imagined;

—Persephone, Queen of Hades, also complained about her godmother because of the pain of losing her son:

-besides…

Lorne lowered his head and looked at the horn of abundance in his palm, which exuded a strong aura of life, with a burning feeling in his eyes.

With this artifact of the **** of agriculture, not only can I move freely in the underworld filled with the power of death, and visit my newly recognized mother, the queen of the underworld, but I even seem to have found my seventh incarnation!

 One sentence brought such a huge reward. It seems that I will visit the underworld more often in the future.

Of course, hypocritical flattery to achieve the goal will only make the queen of the underworld feel disgusted. Only sincerity is the greatest surefire way.

 And that woman seems to be worthy of being called “mother”.

Lorne thought of Persephone’s protection and help to him, turned his head and looked at the garden in the distance that was wrapped in thick clouds, and whispered secretly.

 Don’t worry, I’ll be back!

The Horn of Plenty was surging with life, and Sisisyphus on the ground shook his groggy head and woke up, looking around blankly.

 “We escaped? Where are we?”

 “The crossing of the River Styx, ready to go home.”

Lorne responded in a deep voice, reached into his arms, and threw the golden branch of the garden given by Persephone into the River Styx.

Suddenly, circles of golden ripples appeared in the river, and an old ferry boat came from the thick gray fog with the sound of splashing water.

 “Charon!”

Sisyphus jumped angrily when he saw the old face like dry tree bark on the bow of the ship and the criss-crossed folds. “Okay, you old boy, you just sold us, and now you dare to come out!”

 “How did I know you had such a strong relationship?”

Charon fished up the golden branches of the garden in the river, with the same sad look on his face.

“You didn’t tell me earlier that I had that adult as my backer! As a result, I was chased by Hypnos and beaten up…”

 “What’s the backer?”

Sisyphus looked startled and subconsciously opened his mouth to ask.

Lorne did not want to reveal the relationship between himself and Persephone, the Queen of the Underworld, so he coughed dryly and interrupted Sisyphus’s question.

 “Stop talking nonsense and give me money!”

Facing the powerful teammates, Sisyphus, who was not sure what to do, could only pinch his nose, take out a bag of Zeus’s gold from his arms, and throw it on the ship.

The God of Styx Crossing smelled the strong power of faith contained in each gold coin, and immediately smiled brightly, and hurriedly greeted everyone to get on the boat.

This is a good thing that is enshrined in a large temple and has been prayed and blessed day and night. It is enough for him to smoke for a while.

The Greeks feared death and even sleep related to death was classified as a bad omen.

 Hence, the gods of the underworld who are associated with death and pain rarely enjoy worship.

But something like this with fresh life and pure faith is simply a leaf that addicts can’t stop eating for gods like them. This is especially true for Charon who lacks a fixed priesthood.

This trip not only earned the favor of the Queen of the Underworld, but also allowed me to pick up a batch of such high-quality goods. It was a huge profit!

The mature God of Styx immediately understood what Lorne meant, wisely stopped talking about the Queen of Hades, and rowed the boat forward wholeheartedly.

 The ferry traveled smoothly along the river.

 Soon, a group of four people arrived at a certain border of Hades.

According to the instructions on the map, Lorne signaled Charon to dock, and then led the remaining three people off the boat.

In order to prevent this secret passage from being exposed, he unceremoniously issued an expulsion order to the God of Styx Crossing.

 “Okay, it’s none of your business, go back.”

Charon was not annoyed at all. His old face like dry tree bark straightened out its folds, revealing an almost flattering smile.

“Okay, go ahead. Whenever you need me, just stand at the ferry and call my name. I promise to be there when you call me!”

Sisyphus couldn’t help but roll his eyes when he saw Charon’s sudden humility and stepped forward.

“Then our account is also settled?”

“Two times for nothing! Thirty times! Bastard, I even took a boat and you have to pay me more when I go back! Otherwise, when you meet me next time, be careful I tie you to a long pole and use you as a float!” “

However, the skinny old man immediately changed his face, spat at Sisyphus, gritted his teeth and threatened, his eyes erupted with intense fire, and a gloomy divine power surged.

Out of breath, Sisyphus nodded quickly like a chicken pecking at rice. It wasn’t until he saw Charon walking away with his pole that he dared to jump and curse at the misty river.

　　”You old fool, what the hell! More money, more money, more money! You will die in the eyes of money sooner or later!”

 “Are you still leaving?”

“Let’s go! Brother, wait for me. How can I let you do such a rough job as exploring the road? I’ll do it!”

Hearing the impatient voice behind him, Sisyphus quickly put on the same flattering expression as Charon, and followed hastily, for fear of being left behind by Lorne and Thetis.

Although I don’t understand what’s going on, one thing is certain. These two are thighs. If you hug them tightly, you will definitely escape from the underworld.

 After briefly groping for a while based on the map, the four of them soon arrived at the entrance to the crypt.

 “Woof?”

At the same time, three huge dog heads poked out from the depths of the mist-filled cave. They stared with intelligent eyes and looked at the four people who broke into its door with confusion.
