23. His Majesty the Sea Emperor

After thinking about the wording, the siren cautiously asked, "Pearl, I don't know if I should continue or not, and if I do, it will be very unfair to Bacchus......"

Pearl frowned, looking incredulous, "When is this coming, don't sue me that you are hesitating." It's all come to this point, and what else is fair or unfair, siren, you don't have a way back at all, okay? ”

She didn't take the siren's words seriously, only fiddling with the cup in her hand, and Pearl muttered, "Besides, this matter has been unfair to Bacchus from the beginning, and it is better to be unfair to the end." You too, why did you suddenly say these words, and you have been more distracted recently than before. ”

The sirens were silent, Pearl kept chattering, suddenly, she stopped talking, was stunned for a moment, turned her head to look at the siren, her eyes widened more and more, as if she couldn't believe it, Pearl asked very slowly, "You, are you ......?"

The siren does not speak, and the right should be acquiesced. Pearl gasped, no wonder the sirens have been so strange lately, no wonder there is always a bad premonition in my heart, the current appearance of the sirens is so similar to myself back then!

Pearl stood up, she walked around the small room with her head down, and after a few moments she sat down, she grabbed the siren's shoulder, as if trying to sober her up, "Siren, what I am now you have seen, do you want to repeat my mistake?" And you're different from me, I'm just betrayed, heartbroken, and if you fall into it, you'll die! ”

Because he has encountered it, so Pearl understands the mood of the sirens better than others, the gods who are as gentle as water, can only hold one of your gods in their eyes, who can resist their charm? But it's not love, it's magic, it's magic, it's fake, it took her a hundred years to see the truth, how can she let the sirens be blinded.

Siren looked at Pearl, pursed her lips tightly, Pearl sighed, and continued to persuade her, "You've come here, if you give up now it's a dead end, you know better than me, don't you?" Let's not talk about whether this is love or not, even if it is, you have seen so many people and gods, which love can last for a hundred years? In the face of eternity, nothing is vulnerable, and one day you will forget about him. ”

After a long time, the sirens didn't react, Pearl looked at her worriedly, and finally, the sirens nodded, and Pearl smiled with relief, "Don't think so much, you'll be able to go out soon, can't you do whatever you want then?" ”

The siren also smiled reluctantly, "yes, I'll be able to get out soon." ”

After Pearl left, the sirens were in a daze for a long time, and slowly came to their senses.

Pearl was right, and she couldn't afford to delay any longer. Thinking so, she walked to the side of the room, and there was a long-dusty drawer at the bottom of the corner cabinet, which had finally been opened by the sirens today.

Achilles planned the time, and when he returned, he found that the cabin was glowing with a faint blue light from the inside out. The black poplar opened his eyes coldly, a pair of big black eyes were stunned, I don't know if he was in a daze, or looking at the cabin.

"If the sirens aren't there, won't anyone want me?"

Achilles' eyes widened slightly, he had always thought that the black poplar tree did not know anything. But also, two hundred years of getting along day and night, you can guess some.

Achilles patted his trunk and smiled, "Of course not." ”

=====

Although Bacchus enjoyed the extraordinarily enthusiastic Amplos these days, there was one more thing he had to do. Amplos knew he seemed to be looking for something, but he didn't ask.

Amplos sent him to the door, and Dio confidently said, "When I return, I will surprise you." ”

Amplos smiled, "Okay. ”

Seeing him leave, Amplos clenched something in his pocket, returned to his room, took his bow and quiver, and walked slowly towards the edge of the forest. Everyone thought that he was going out hunting again, and they didn't suspect him.

Coming to the vicinity of the largest river in the forest, Ampulos put down his bow and arrows, crouched down by the river, took out what was hidden in his clothes, and gently placed it on the surface of the river.

A natural conch, colorful in color, is lying quietly on the surface of the river, neither floating away nor sinking. Amplos looked at it for a moment, then pointed his index finger at the tip of the conch and pressed it down gently.

The conch seemed to be sucked in with his hand, and at first it sank very slowly, as if something in the river was pulling him, and Amplos's fingers sank into the water, and the sound of Weng Weng gradually came, and the animals of the forest scattered and fled, and the birds flew in large swaths, and the invisible waves of light vibrated on the surface of the river, and the range was so large that it extended to the invisible places.

After waiting for a while, the river began to fluctuate violently, and a whirlpool appeared in front of him, and Amplos didn't seem to be surprised at all, Poseidon came out of the water, staring closely at the young man who had been keeping his head down in front of him.

Catching a glimpse of this figure, Amplos raised his fingers, and even the conch rose, and picked up the conch, and Amplos slowly stood up, finally facing the god in front of him.

Slowly showing a smile, Amplos seemed to greet an old friend who he hadn't seen for many years, "Your Majesty the Sea Emperor, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Poseidon looked at him in shock, sensing the breath of the sirens in the underwater palace in the distance, he rushed over almost non-stop, and the conch opened a direct road for him, which is why he was able to come here so quickly.

However......

Although the person in front of him looked very much like a siren and had the same aura as a siren, he couldn't tell that it was a disguise, it was just like the real thing.

Are the sirens already so powerful? Even he couldn't see where the clues were, but ...... This is impossible, even if Zeus and Hades' disguises can be seen through by him, there is no reason why the sirens will be more powerful than them.

Amplos let Poseidon look at him for a long time before he spoke: "Don't think about it, this is a real body, not an illusion." ”

Poseidon was stunned, he didn't understand what the sirens meant, he had a bunch of things to say when he didn't see them, but now that he saw them, he didn't know what to say.

Amplos looked at him and turned in silence. Seeing that the siren was leaving, Poseidon was shocked and hurriedly grabbed his arm.

Then, he let go of his hand like an electric shock.

The three Zeus brothers, although only Hades became Hades, in fact, all three of them have the ability to observe death, although Poseidon is weaker, but once touched, he can also feel the breath of death.

He even felt this aura in the siren's body, decay and termination...... And it's already haunting him.

Poseidon hurried around to Amplos and met Amplos' calm eyes. He smiled, but his tone was very indifferent: "Well, I'm dying." ”

"But you're God."

Amplos lowered his eyes, "Not anymore. ”

As he spoke, he wanted to move forward, but Poseidon blocked his way, "But you are a god." ”

Amplos looked up, his brow furrowed slightly, not understanding the point of what he had been emphasizing this. He looked at Poseidon amusedly, "Take a closer look, do you see that I am still a god?" Poseidon, I heard that you have been looking for me, and now that you have seen it, why, His Majesty the Sea Emperor still can't see my identity? ”

He saw it, but he didn't want to believe it, and he couldn't understand how a person, a man, a siren, could become like this?

His mind quickly searched for information related to it, and suddenly, something he had seen in Zeus's chamber flooded into his mind. His dark blue pupils constricted violently, and Amplos saw that he understood, and the corners of his lips hooked, "I thought that my bad luck had died in the sea with my past me, but no, how much the goddess of fate favored me, as long as I don't die, bad luck can't be stopped." ”

Poseidon didn't understand, he didn't understand why the siren did this, he hadn't seen him for a thousand years, he thought that the siren had shaken off the pain of the past and was getting better again, but she was like this in front of her.

Thinking like this, he grabbed Amplos's shoulders with a look of disbelief on his face, "Why? Didn't you go with Hermes, how did it come to this? ”

Amplos looked at the hand he had placed on his body and patted it off gently. Poseidon froze, silently retracting his hand to his side. Amplos smiled, "That's why I said that the goddess of fate favored me, after I escaped from your sea, I lost my divine wings and had to go to Mount Olympus to recuperate, the goddess of hunting was very good to me, but I still had to hide in Tibet, and I survived secretly, and was later taken back to her home by Demeter, and it was considered a stable few years, but unfortunately the good times didn't last long, you should have heard about Demeter's anger, I am the one who was cursed and imprisoned in the underworld, am you surprised?" ”

A few sentences summarize the past thousand years, and she still has the heart to laugh at herself, and only she knows the sadness and sadness in it. However, Poseidon was not concerned about that, his mind had gone blank since he heard "no divine wings".

Athena once sanctioned Cleo, the goddess of history, when she locked Cleo in the deep sea, locking her wings so that she could not break free, feel the same pain as humans, and die. It was a terrible punishment, and Poseidon thought she did the same to the sirens, but what was the loss of divine wings?

He had seen with his own eyes that after the Battle of the Titans, Zeus ordered the god of fire to make countless iron cages in order to prevent the Titans from threatening the safety of the new gods again, each of which was loaded with two golden ropes, and then used the golden ropes to penetrate their divine wings, the poison and pain made them unable to move, and the golden ropes continued to consume their blood, and over time, their divine wings would automatically fall, and the divine power would disappear.

But that wasn't enough, the Titans were the oldest gods in the world, and they were imprisoned in the Hells of Tartarus - a place where there was no growth, and although they could not completely exterminate the Titans, they would never be able to come out again.

The gods mourn every day and lament the cruelty of mankind. But no matter how cruel human beings are, they can't reach one ten-thousandth of them. Only this kind of torture can make a god lose his wings, because there are no wings...... He is no longer a god.
