Greece Brings Evildoers - Chapter 225
Chapter 225 Love God, he is PUA you (4.2k)
A few days later, on the way to the island of Cyprus, Lorne heard the news from the Kingdom of Corinth.
Their king and city builder Sisyphus, even though he faced death three times, still returned safely from the underworld. He was welcomed by his subjects and was revered by the Corinthians who liked tricks and cleverness as “the most resourceful hero in the world.” “.
Now, Sisyphus, who had earned enough fame, was holding a grand banquet in the palace to celebrate his new life. During this period, he boasted to the attendees about how he had come up with ingenious tricks and escaped from the strict supervision of the God of Sleep. Escape, play with the ferocious three-headed **** dog, steal the golden branches from the garden of the Queen of Hades, and finally return to the world with the help of Charon, the **** of crossing the river Styx…
As a person involved, Lorne didn’t mind Sisyphus hiding him and Thetis in the story, grabbing all the highlights.
On the contrary, the more boastful and high-profile the old liar is, the more in line with his interests the result will be.
After all, with such a wind-blocking wall in front to help resist damage, the basket he poked in the underworld can easily be pushed back, and the blame will all be dumped on Sisyphus’s head.
Even if the old liar overturned the car and was caught by Hecate or other gods of the underworld who were wandering on the ground, and was thrown back into the Tartarus Hell to be tortured, Lorne would not be afraid.
Because, on the one hand, he and Thetis were disguised throughout the whole process, and Sisyphus could not see through their true faces; on the other hand, they were cautious enough and basically did not leave any identifying information. Sisyphus likes to knock people unconscious and then have secret conversations. Sisyphus was unconscious for longer than he was awake along the way.
So even if Sisyphus was caught and kept quiet, he could still trace Adonis and assume that they were thugs who came specifically to get the prince of Cyprus.
In this way, the blame was naturally transferred to Aphrodite.
The weight of a plant **** and an Olympus god, no matter the size or length, are enough to take the blame.
Perfect!
Lorne once again reviewed the details of the entire trip to the underworld, and after confirming that there were no fatal omissions, he collected his thoughts with satisfaction and walked out of the resting forest.
The outline of the city-state of Cyprus comes into view in front of you, and the breeze blows the breath of the fields and fragrant petals; the bay stretches to the distant mountains and gradually turns into a beautiful arc; the golden sunshine at sunrise is gorgeous and dizzying, Pafo The foam in the Sri Lankan sea is piled up layer by layer.
After experiencing the twists and turns in the underworld, seeing this beautiful natural scenery again made Lorn feel as if he was in another world.
Hmm, it’s coming soon.
Calculating the time, Thetis and Echidna are almost the same, and they need to inform Medusa that they will leave the city in advance to take care of them.
Lorne thought for a moment, then took out a Gorgon emblem, activated the resonance interaction spell in it, contacted the three Medusa sisters in Ares Mountain, and explained the situation.
Hearing that her mother had come back from the dead and was about to arrive in Athens, Medusa was overjoyed, and her attachment and gratitude to Lorne could not be greater.
But Stheno and Euryale were not in a good mood, and were still brooding over the old grudges of being poked until their butts hurt and being slapped until their butts hurt.
—Because some **** pulled up his pants and ran away, the culprit who drugged the two of them was discovered by Hestia, and was whipped by the angry stove goddess for several days, which eventually led to them being beaten for half a month. I couldn’t even get out of bed.
“The one who prepared the medicine for you is Asclepius, and the one who betrayed you is also this boy. If you have any questions, come to him. What does it have to do with me?”
Hearing the unreasonable accusations from the two female brats, Lorne immediately felt aggrieved with a dark face.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere on the other side instantly solidified. Stheno and Euryale opened their mouths but stopped talking. Medusa on the side also pursed her lips tightly, with a tangled look on her face.
Seeing this reaction, Lorne’s mood changed and his face changed slightly.
“What happened to Asclepius?”
Although it is a question sentence, it has an affirmative tone.
Faced with Lorne’s scrutinizing gaze, Medusa, who was not good at lying, was the first to be defeated. She pursed her lips and responded in a low voice.
“He died while you were away…”
“How did you die? Tell me in detail!” Lorne opened his mouth to ask.
Although Lorn had anticipated the outcome based on the reactions of the three Medusas, the unexpected turn of events still made his heart sink.
And as the other person finished telling everything about the medical **** after he left, Lorne’s face gradually became a little uncertain.
The stubborn donkey still didn’t listen to him honestly and ended the research and use of the elixir.
Even if all the elixir samples were taken away and Gorgon’s blood was severely lacking, he still did not extinguish his passion for medicine. Instead, he changed his mind and began to experiment with alternatives from common herbs that could produce the same effect.
It has to be said that this future medical **** is indeed extremely talented.
Through constant attempts and efforts, although he was unable to completely reproduce the original [Elixir of Life], he used ordinary herbs to produce a [imitation drug] that was less effective.
Basically, as long as the injured person is still breathing, drinking a bottle can bring him back from the gate of hell.
Although the efficacy is slightly inferior, this thing is energy-producing!
What’s even worse is that Asclepius still has an restless temper and often travels around various city-states to diagnose and treat difficult and complicated diseases.
If you go back and forth like this, it is inevitable to use [elixir].
And when Asclepius successfully rescued the dying fourth son of King Minos, Glaucus, during a turmoil, such a taboo thing attracted the attention of the passing god-king Zeus.
Subsequently, after a conversation, the great **** Zeus became furious with Asclepius for violating the order of life and death, claiming that this threatened the “immortality” that only gods possessed, so he summoned thunder to kill his grandson.
Listening to Perfect Dussa’s narration, Lorne pressed the bulging veins on his forehead and cursed secretly.
This idiot! You definitely didn’t keep your mouth shut!
What does it mean to threaten the “immortality” that only gods possess? The real [Elixir of Death] couldn’t do it, let alone the [imitation drug] that Asclepius had at the time, which was less effective.
If Zeus, the old bastard, could do it himself, Asclepius probably didn’t recognize the identity of the Olympian God King. He was so excited that he thought he could use the [Golden Apple] to develop an advanced version. The idea of [Immortal Potion] was also stated.
Hearing the ambitions of his good grandson, Zeus could not sit still, so of course he immediately sent Asclepius to his death.
I thought that a trip to the underworld would save this kid’s life, but in the end it couldn’t stop him from taking the initiative to die.
This stubborn donkey temper is really the same as his father Apollo!
At this point, Lorne rubbed his sore eyebrows, sighed quietly, and continued to ask.
“Then what? Did Artemis, Athena and Hestia intervene?”
“Yes, after what happened, they climbed to the great temple on Mount Olympus together, hoping to at least save Asclepius’s soul.”
Medusa nodded in response but her mood became even lower.
“But, Asclepius’s soul disappeared…”
Hearing this, Lorne was slightly startled: “Disappear?”
“You believe Zeus’s lies?” “That’s right! It’s obvious that his tactics were so dark that Asclepius couldn’t even save his soul! This old guy is so cold-blooded!”
Stheno and Euryale on the opposite side couldn’t help but interject, trying to defend Asclepius, who had a good relationship with them.
Listening to the two people’s accusations, Lorne gradually frowned.
Whether it is according to the original mythological trajectory or according to the current situation, it is not in the interest of Zeus to let Asclepius disappear and create his own brutal image.
First, in the name of the gods’ righteousness, Asclepius’s body was destroyed, and then he borrowed the donkey from Poxia in the intercession of the gods to upgrade his soul to a star, embellishing his own divine power in the sky, and thus using this power of a healer , it is more in the interests of Zeus to have control in his own hands, and it is also his usual way of playing.
This is how the legendary “Ophiuchus” came about.
But now Asclepius’ soul disappeared out of thin air, neither entering the underworld nor falling into the hands of Zeus.
“disappear, disappear…”
Lorne chewed the two words in his mouth repeatedly, his eyes were thoughtful, and a faint light quietly appeared in the depths of his eyes.
“Okay, I understand! You first go outside the city to pick up the Snake Mother and Thetis to Ares Mountain, and then help me pay attention to the death scene of Asclepius. Don’t let outsiders get close before I go back.”
“Um!”
Although Medusa didn’t know the reason, she still maintained her usual attitude of obeying Lorn’s words and nodded seriously. Then at Lorn’s signal, she cut off the communication, took her two sisters, and got up to leave the city.
As the light and shadow in front of him dissipated, Lorne threw the slightly hot Gorgon emblem into the magic circle, looked at the direction of the city of Athens in the distance, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
I hope things are as I thought and there will be a turn for the better.
But the trouble in Athens is a foregone conclusion, and it is useless to say more. The top priority is to find a way to make up for the losses first.
With such a hard-working deal, someone has to cover it, right?
Lorne took out the golden Holy Grail carrying the soul of Adonis in the magic circle from a distance, and glanced at the Royal City of Cyprus in front of him with a faint twinkling gaze.
ˆˆ~~
“What? Asclepius is dead?!”
In the palace filled with flowers, the God of Love in front of the bed had a look of surprise and regret on his face.
“What a misfortune…”
“Shouldn’t you know about this kind of thing earlier than me?”
Lorn unceremoniously exposed Aphrodite’s superficial sympathy and sneered faintly.
“Or, having witnessed the thunderous wrath of His Majesty the God-King, do you want to sever ties with Asclepius and the elixir?”
“Nothing!”
Aphrodite shook her head in denial, and explained with an embarrassed and helpless look.
“I only recently learned about what happened to Asclepius. I wanted to help at the time, but the tragedy had already happened, and Zeus had wiped out his soul. Even my own marriage and love were at stake. What can a little woman who can’t control do?”
As he spoke, the God of Love seemed to be touched by the sad past and put on a look that was on the verge of tears, which made people unable to bear harsh criticism and just wanted to hold her in his arms and comfort her with soft words.
“Perhaps…” Regarding the God of Love, whom I felt pity for, Lorne responded calmly without being moved, and then snorted with a gloomy face, “The matter is now over, Asclepius has done it for you and Ah. It is an indisputable fact that Donis died!”
“I understand this, and I will make it up to you!” Aphrodite vowed, looking at the messenger who had returned from Hades with stern eyes, “As long as I can bring my Adonis back, let me do it. Anything is fine!”
His body has the aura of his lover.
Moreover, the fact that he was able to successfully return from the underworld and raise an army here to question his crimes proved that the purpose of this adventure was mostly successful.
But at this time, Lorne looked sulky.
“Compensation? What compensation can you give me? Asclepius is not only my dearest relative and friend! He is also the chosen one I summoned from the gods for Lord Hestia! Can you afford the compensation?”
“The God of Kitchen and God of Medicine?” Aphrodite was slightly startled, with a look of astonishment on her face.
“Medicine and food come from the same source. I originally planned to use Asclepius’s talent in medicine to expand the scope of authority of Lord Hestia. In this way, not only can I help my friends, but also Lord Hestia Maybe you will look at me differently because of your affairs…”
At this point, Lorne’s statement stopped abruptly, and then he turned around angrily.
“Forget it, there’s nothing to say! Our deal ends here!”
“don’t want!”
Seeing that her little lover’s only life-saving straw was about to leave, Aphrodite quickly grabbed Lorne’s arm with a look of pleading.
“I will compensate! I will compensate you!”
Immediately, the God of Love glanced back at Adonis, who was unconscious in the flower bed, raised his heart, pointed to the door, gritted his teeth and spoke.
“I can let you choose one of the three graceful goddesses under my command to succeed Asclepius and become Hestia’s subordinate god!”
“Forget it, Asclepius has just cooled down, and I haven’t lived enough yet.”
Lorne shook his head unmoved and continued to leave.
“Three! The three of them will obey your orders from now on!”
Seeing that the other party seemed determined not to wade into this muddy water, Aphrodite, who was at the end of her rope, simply put all her chips on the line.
“With the baptism from the Sacred Pool of Paphos and the power of the Three Graces to help you, I can guarantee that Hestia will be attracted to you even if her heart is a stone!”
Lorne, who was walking towards the door, finally stopped and gritted his teeth and turned around.
”If you fight hard, just help! At worst, you will be punished by His Majesty the God King!”
Speaking, Lorne took out the Holy Grail fiercely and unsealed Adonis’s soul with a tragic look on his face.
“There is no way, who makes us the same kind of people…”
As the transparent and handsome figure of her lover Adonis fell into the flower bed, their bodies and souls blended with each other, brewing vitality again. Aphrodite looked at the extremely tall and majestic figure in front of the door, with a heart. Her heart was completely filled with emotion, and she repeated the only words she could think of at the moment.
“thanks, thanks…”
