1456 Hecatoncheir (2)
He knew that his Father was ruthless, arbitrary, unquestionable, and inviolable.
After careful consideration, Argus sighed and said in a low voice, “”Father, I understand. I will do as you say.”
Zeus then handed over a sealed soul to Argus.
Aiagos tried to sense this soul, wanting to know how many sins it had committed. It had to be imprisoned in Tartarus, but Zeus’s seal failed.
“It’s very dangerous, don’t try to find out.”
“Your mission is to send it to Tartarus, in the name of Hades.”
“Remember, don’t let the Nether King know.”
“As for Tartarus ‘guards, they won’t stop you.”
Whoosh!
A bolt of lightning descended from the sky and landed on the palm of Argus. A lightning brand was formed on the back of his hand, flashing for a moment and then disappearing.
Then, the Underworld Judge left with the soul, heading to the Underworld to execute Zeus ‘will.
After the Underworld Judge left, Zeus whispered in the palace of the King of Gods, ““………. Hades, my little brother, don’t blame your elder brother for being heartless. I really won’t allow you to covet my divine position.”
At the same time.
Golden Sea God Palace.
Sea God Garen was communicating with Eternal Sun, who was temporarily disguised as the Sun God, through the Time Alliance Contract.
“Zeus should have already made his move.”
Eternal Sun said.
In order to properly deal with Hades, Zeus, the Sea God, and the Sun God came up with a plan.
As long as the Underworld Judge sent specially processed souls to Tartarus, Hades would suffer.
The corner of Garen’s mouth curled up, and he smiled. ” He, the God King, will take care of the gods in Olympus that are hindering me step by step.”
” Zeus is suspicious in his heart. He believes that every powerful god covets his position as the King of Gods. All kinds of actions have already made the gods dissatisfied. Now that we are helping him, if he increases his efforts, sooner or later, he will be betrayed by everyone. The gods who supported him in the past will also change their minds.”
At that time, Garen could rise up and overthrow Zeus at the right time, exposing the fact that he had cheated to become the King of Gods. At the same time, he could gain support as the Sea God and become the King of Olympus openly.
As for the matter of swearing on the Seagod’s divine persona…………
Was this reasonable?
This was very reasonable.
At the same time, in the Underworld, the kingdom of the dead.
There was a lifeless, seemingly omnipresent grayish-white fog. The ground was dry and withered, and the twisted grayish-white forest was like a demon. The howling wind carried the wails of the souls from afar, and it was endless.
As a judge, Argus traveled through the Underworld.
He crossed the mountain peak formed by the piles of bones and crossed the river filled with dead souls and spirits. Finally, he stopped in front of a dark curtain.
In front of him was a fog that was darker than darkness. The dark fog rolled endlessly and changed into different forms every second. There were humans begging for mercy and wailing, and there were also monsters roaring and roaring. The aura revealed seemed to contain the deepest and darkest evil.
In the boundless dark fog, a magnificent bronze door was embedded.
It was tightly shut, and it was engraved with all kinds of complicated runes. There were also three tall patterns of a hundred-armed giant.
Weng!
The Hecatoncheir pattern on the bronze door trembled slightly and protruded as if it had come alive.
Eyes opened and stared at Aiagos.
Hecatoncheir…… The ancient second-generation Titan God helped Zeus overthrow the rule of the second-generation God King, Cronus. Now, he was in charge of guarding the defeated Titan God in Tartarus.
They didn’t reveal their true forms, but their eyes still gave Aiagos a sense of oppression like a storm.
“This is not a place you should be. Leave quickly!”
a Hecatoncheir muttered.
A thunderous voice echoed in Aiagos ‘mind, giving him a splitting headache.
” I am under the command of the ruler of the Underworld, the king of the dead, the great Hades. I want to send a sinful soul into Tartarus.”
Argus said with difficulty while enduring the intense headache. At the same time, he reached out his palm and took out the sealed soul.
“Tartarus is not under the jurisdiction of the Underworld, even if it is the decree of the Underworld King………….”
While the Hecatoncheir was speaking, the lightning brand on the back of Aiagos ‘palm suddenly became bright for a moment. An electric arc shot out and landed on the bronze door.
The Hecatoncheir guarding Tartarus fell silent as if it had received some kind of message.
Hecatoncheir, the second god, the brother of the second God King, Cronus.
In the beginning, when the first God King gave birth to the Hecatoncheir’s children, he regarded them as ugly and deformed monsters, so he threw them all into Tartarus. After the second God King ascended the throne, he did not care about the Hecatoncheir and ignored their pleas, allowing them to sink into Tartarus.
It was Zeus who had set them free from Tartarus in order to overturn the rule of his father. He was their benefactor.
However, they were in the same camp as the Titan God who was now imprisoned in Tartarus. They were the same generation of gods. Even though they assisted the third generation of gods in the war of gods, they were still not welcomed by the gods of Olympus.
The gods saw the Titan God as a potential threat. After the end of the war between gods, they wanted to kill the Hecatoncheir and seal it back to Tartarus, a land of despair and darkness.
But ….. The God King had given them a chance of survival, a place to stay.
The Hecatoncheir could thus act as Tartarus’s guardian.
It was their duty to guard Tartarus, but it was Zeus’s duty.
They did not dare to disobey Zeus ‘orders. Whether it was out of past kindness or fear, they were once sealed in Tartarus. They knew the darkness and terror inside, and they did not want to go back no matter what.
“Since the Nether King insists on this, then bear the consequences.”
Kakaka … The Hecatoncheir on the bronze door stretched out their strong arms and clung to the center of the bronze door. Then, they exerted their strength in unison.
Veins visible to the naked eye bulged on the giant’s forehead.
Creak … The bronze door that had been sealed for thousands of years trembled slightly, and an unnoticeable crack was opened.
The moment the crack appeared.
A deep roar sounded from within, transmitting many emotions and auras. Ancient, deep, withered, unwilling, cold, angry, thirsty……….. Argus shivered.
Many of the rulers of the Olympian Multiverse were sealed behind the bronze gate.
Although their authority had been seized and they had become weak, the insignificant aura that leaked out still made Aiagos feel terrified.
Argus did not dare to stay any longer.
” He ” hurriedly reached out his palm and sent the sealed soul into an undetectable crack.
As soon as the soul was sent in, the Hecatoncheir closed the bronze door again without hesitation.
“Father, I have successfully sent my soul into Tartarus.”
Aiagos stroked the lightning brand on the back of his hand and sent a message to the God King of Olympus.
“Very good, my son. I’m proud of you.”
Ayagos smiled and wanted to say something, but suddenly, he felt his right hand become hot, as if it had been touched by a branding iron. Ayagos was shocked and looked down.
The lightning brand sizzled and burst out thousands of electric arcs.
In the next second, without giving Iagos a chance to react, thousands of electric arcs engulfed Iagos and turned him into ashes in an instant, leaving no trace.
Only the silent Hecatoncheir saw this scene.
” They ” closed their eyes and remained silent. They continued to guard Tartarus as the pattern on the bronze door.
