59. Chapter 59
The siren told Dior all the nightmares of the past few days, and all the things she had noticed wrong, and Dior leaned against the wall, thinking quickly about what the siren had said.
The first dream seems to be the scene where Gaia instigated her children to overthrow Ouranos, and it was Kronos who took the initiative to ask for help, so Gaia later made him the god-king.
The second dream is supposed to be when Kronus is defeated and the god Titans is sent to the hell of Tartarus and subjected to inhuman torture.
It seems that these are the most unforgettable memories of Kronos, because of a drop of his blood, so the sirens can also see his memories, but only see part of it, or hear part of it. But the sirens had never had this experience before, and only recently appeared, and there was only one explanation, Kronos became stronger, but how could he become stronger?
Thinking of this, Dio immediately straightened up and stared into the eyes of the siren, "Have you been stripped of your strength by him?" β
The siren was stunned for a moment, and the cold sweat was about to come down when she reacted, but she quickly shook her head, "No, I always feel that I am getting stronger and stronger, and if he deprives me of my strength, I can feel it." β
Dio breathed a sigh of relief, and thought in hindsight that if the other party did not agree, even if the hemolysis could not force the other party to give strength, the siren was safe.
"Don't worry, you won't become him, all you see is the memory of Kronos left in that drop of blood, and it'll be fine."
Siren nodded, after such a long time, she had calmed down, and after listening to Dio's words, she didn't think much about it anymore.
Slowly, the sirens began to feel sleepy, after a long time, the sirens had fallen asleep, and the sky ushered in the first glimmer of light, Dio didn't sleep all night, and when he saw the light coming in, Dior's expression was still indifferent, and his eyes were rare cold, he had been thinking about a problem, and he had been puzzled.
If Kronos didn't need the strength of the siren, didn't ask her to do anything, and even did his best to help her out, then what did he want to do?
=====
"You can't go in! The God-King forbids anyone to set foot here, and you really can't go in! β
The sound of the commotion came to the other side of the door, Prometheus stood up, and was about to go out to have a look, when there was a loud bang, the door was blown apart, and a strong wind swept into the room, Prometheus was startled, and immediately opened the barrier to protect Cleo, who was still weak.
Hera came in angrily, and when she saw Cleo, she was stunned for a moment, and then she was furious, and the golden storm formed from Hera's fingertips, Rao is a temple, and it will also be destroyed by the anger of the queen of heaven, Prometheus stopped her, grabbed Hera's simmering storm fingers with her right hand, and forcibly compressed Hera's power into a golden point, and finally disappeared into Prometheus's enchantment.
Prometheus still didn't let go of her, the force in his hand made Hera feel pain, Prometheus stared at Hera tightly, with a strong warning in his eyes, "This is Cleo, my love, and Zeus has nothing to do with it, if you still want to make trouble, you're welcome." β
Hera is the most noble goddess of Olympus, where has there been such treatment, Hera was stunned, then remembered who the person in front of her was, and then looked at the person lying on the bed with a pair of big eyes and a pale face, but still very calm, Hera's dangerous aura gradually dissipated, and Prometheus also let go of her and slowly retreated to Cleo's side.
The room was silent for a while, the guards who had stopped Hera were still standing at the door and looking at each other, Hera paused for three seconds and waved them to leave, the guards looked at Prometheus hesitantly, got a calm look, and the guards left.
Hera turned, her fingers tapped from the bottom up, and the broken door was back intact.
Hera, who had regained her calm, walked to Cleo's bedside, leaned over to look at the goddess she hadn't seen for a long time, looked at her carefully, frowned and asked, "How long have you been here?" β
Cleo's hands were folded together, and her voice was hoarse: "I just woke up, and I don't know how long it has been." β
Prometheus handed her a glass of water and answered for her: "More than a year." β
Hera's eyes widened for more than a year! A woman has been by her husband's side for more than a year, and she doesn't know anything about it, and if it weren't for hearing the conversation of the two maids today, she wouldn't know anything about it until now!
I originally thought that Zeus was a golden house treasurer, but Prometheus was also here, and then looking at Cleo's appearance, she was now skinny, and I didn't know how terrifying it was a year ago.
The temple is divided into two parts, one part is the front hall, the other part is the back hall, the back hall is also called the secret hall, only the god king can enter here, even if Hera is the queen of heaven, without the permission of Zeus, she can not enter, because there is a place where all the secrets of the gods are stored - the relic.
She broke in today, she was really dizzy, even if Zeus fell in love with a woman, it was impossible to put her in the secret temple, and now it seems that Zeus should be planning something again.
Thinking of this, Hera softened her expression and said to Prometheus, "Sorry to disturb you. β
Prometheus shook his head: "It's okay. β
Hera had a lot of shortcomings, but she had a strong heart and great respect for the ancient gods, and she would apologize, and Prometheus was not surprised at all.
"Cleo is here to heal, she has nothing to do with Zeus, I sent her here, you should also know that it is too late for Cleo to hate him now."
Hera, of course, understood, and she smiled politely and distantly at Cleo, and said, "I know, I'll ask Zeus for details, so I won't bother you." β
Saying that, Hera turned around and went out, and when she closed the door immediately, the smile on her face gradually disappeared, and when she closed the door, Hera's eyes immediately became cold, and she pursed her lips unconsciously, Hera walked quickly to the front hall, her bearing and demeanor were not concerned, she was now going to find Zeus.
Hearing the sound of messy footsteps, Zeus smiled and looked at the comer, "Did they sue you?" β
Hera straightened out her disguise, saw Zeus's appearance, and immediately understood that he already knew that he had seen Cleo, Hera walked slowly in front of him, Zeus sat opposite her, even if Zeus needed to look up at her, Hera did not feel the slightest momentum. She shook her head, and her posture towards the queen of heaven to outsiders disappeared completely, looking no different from ordinary women.
"No, they didn't say anything. What about you, what do you want to sue me? β
Zeus still looked at her with a smile, knowing that she wasn't done yet. Hera pursed her lips and continued: "I am your wife, I will support all your decisions, if you sue me, I will do everything in my power to help you, if you don't sue me, I will pretend that I don't know anything and be an ordinary wife." Whatever your decision is, I will support you, Zeus. β
The smile on Zeus's lips grew bigger and bigger, this is the reason why Hera can become a queen of heaven, she is jealous and irritable, it doesn't matter, as long as Hera can listen to him and fulfill the identity of a wife and courtier, the other Zeus don't care at all.
The strongest thing in the world is love, the most fragile is also love, Zeus is the king of gods, his heart is always more powerful than a qiΔ, love is just the spice of life, whether it is relatives or lovers, time will wear out all emotions, only trust and loyalty are eternal.
None of his six previous wives had possessed both, and he had to abandon the goddesses. The height is unbearable, Zeus has stood at the highest point in the world, he can no longer gain anything, only lose something, a person who has to worry about gaining and losing every day, the most lacking thing is trust and loyalty.
One Hera, one Hermes, if Zeus would trust some people, I'm afraid there are only these two.
After listening to Zeus talk about what was about to happen, Hera couldn't hide her shock, she was very shocked, the shock was beyond measure, she didn't understand why Zeus still laughed, once Cronus came out, not only the lives were ruined, but the current gods would also be destroyed, and the pain they had let the Titans experience would definitely be repaid twice, Hera didn't dare to imagine that kind of picture, mourning all over the field, blood flowing thousands of miles, landslides and cracks, it was just a matter of easy words.
Zeus understood what she was thinking, and asked Hera to sit beside him, Zeus said: "This war is a matter of time, two thousand years ago, Cleo has already deduced this war, rest assured, I have been preparing since more than two hundred years ago, we will definitely not lose." β
Zeus still smiled kindly, and the firmness in his eyes made Hera's panic gradually disappear, replaced by a calm and flexible thought, Hera realized, "That's why you put Cleo in the secret temple." β
Zeus nodded, Cleo's ability to know history is very valuable.
There are only two ways to know the future, one is to prophecy, and the other is to extrapolate from existing history. It seems that history is a bunch of dead things, but they contain all the things that have happened, all the laws, all the lessons, stored in Cleo's mind. Prophecy can only give a vague approximation, but Cleo can deduce everything that will happen in the future from countless bloody lessons.
Cleo can't predict, but she can see the future.
The prophecy is empty after all, people are trembling and waiting for it to come true, and there is no way to remedy it, but seeing the future is different, the reason for the occurrence, how it happened, and the final outcome, Cleo can fully deduce it, Athena is the goddess of wisdom, Cleo is stronger than any god, and she even changes the future.
Because the cost of change is too great, Cleo never shows her abilities, she is just a silent bystander, but there are exceptions to everything, for the sake of Prometheus, Cleo changed the future of humanity that was destined for extinction, which is the real reason why Zeus acquiesced to Athena's banishment of her to the deep sea.
Zeus had to be glad that he didn't do too much at that time, fortunately he left Cleo's life, the upcoming war needs every strength, Cleo is the top priority, she only mentioned this matter slightly, Zeus didn't ask in detail, there should be many details, he must know those details.
Zeus did not speak, and Hera pondered.
Kronos used the daughter of the muse to get in touch with Gaia, Gaia was originally dissatisfied with the current gods, and always wanted to overthrow Zeus's regime, Gaia learned his thoughts and current situation from Kronos's blood, she will definitely help him, Gaia does not have much power in his hands, but the giant clan is very loyal to Gaia, plus Gaia knows many ancient secret methods, it is difficult to guarantee that she will do something.
Kronos must have imprinted all his misery in his blood, Gaia has always had a deep affection for her youngest son Kronos, she will definitely try her best to take him out when she sees that, and it will really be the end of the world at that time.
Hera's face was full of worry, Zeus could not comfort her, war was imminent, it could not be avoided, and now they could only bravely face it.
Suddenly, Hera's eyes lit up, and she frowned and looked at Zeus, "That siren, how is she now?" β
Zeus was stunned and replied, "She lives with Dio, and asks her what she does?" She is of no use to us, her greatest ability is to control the mind, but our enemy is the Titan, with Meneta, her ability is completely useless. β
Hera hurriedly shook her head, "I'm not asking this, even if it's just a drop of blood after hemolysis, it will be all over the other party's body, even if the siren loses a drop of blood, now she will have the residual blood of Kronos in her body, right?" β
Zeus nodded.
"Since Gaia can see Kronos's thoughts in the blood, and the siren is already the bearer of this blood, is it okay?"
Zeus understood what Hera meant, but he still shook his head, "Kronos must be fully prepared if he can do this, although his power is completely suppressed, but it is still no problem to place a ban in a drop of blood, and it is impossible for the sirens to see what Kronos wants to tell SΓΉ Gaia." β
Hera lowered her eyes, a little disappointed for a while, I didn't expect Kronos to be so cunning, Kronos has always liked the perfect strategy, so in order to prevent himself from being overthrown by future generations, he killed all the children, but unfortunately, there is no perfect thing in this world, let alone a perfect strategy, only a flawless fate, so Kronos was finally overthrown by his children.
In a flash of inspiration, Hera stood up suddenly, Zeus didn't know what to do, thought about it, and thought of one thing, the two looked at each other, and laughed together, Zeus walked to the window, raised his hand and waved a few drops of golden rain, the golden rain flew away without a trace in an instant, Zeus kissed Hera who walked to his side, and whispered: "Let Hermes bring her over, we know that this conjecture is incorrect." β
=====
Saying goodbye to the Sirens together, Dio and the Sirens flew side by side, the Sirens had been preoccupied, she just followed the direction of Dior, and when she saw the strange and familiar scenery, the Sirens were stunned, "Where are we going?" β
Dio glanced back at her, then turned back again, "Go to the top of Mount Olympus." β
What's at the top of Mount Olympus? When the siren remembered, a pair of eyes immediately widened, "Why go there?" β
"Go to Zeus."
If anyone can unlock the blood contract of Kronos, it can only be Zeus, but it is only a possibility, this is the only chance, Dio must try. The siren, of course, understood this, and she stopped talking and flew in the direction of Olympus with Dio.
The two of them had their own thoughts, and they didn't say anything along the way, and when they were about to reach Olympus, a god rushed towards them quickly, and both the god of wine and the siren felt it, and the figure was too fast to see anything clearly, and in the flash of light, he grabbed the siren's hand and led her to dive down, and Dio was shocked, but Hermes was too fast for him to catch up.
Chased to a strange place, a giant tree soared into the sky, Hermes and the siren stood in the natural cave at the base of the giant tree, as soon as Diop landed, he took the siren behind him, and the long-lost Bacchus staff was held in his right hand, Hermes watched the movements of the god of wine, only stared at him coldly, and did nothing.
The siren hurriedly stopped him, "Wait a minute! Don't be so impulsive, he didn't do anything to me! β
Dior's movements didn't stop, he didn't listen to the sirens at all, the sirens were in a hurry, but Hermes suddenly strode forward, the fast sirens couldn't see clearly, and the two of them were already fighting together.
"What are you going to do! Let the sirens be sent to death?! β
Dio was stunned, Hermes let go of him hatefully, glanced at the sirens who were also stunned, and rubbed his eyebrows painfully.
"What do you mean, you mean Zeus is going to kill the sirens?"
After a little thought, Dio had already thought of various clues, and also understood what Hermes meant, if Zeus wanted the blood of Kronos in the siren's body, he would definitely drain her blood mercilessly, thinking of this, Dio's expression instantly cooled.
Hermes shook his head, "I don't know, Zeus asked me to bring the siren back, and I don't know what he wants to do, but it's definitely not a good thing for him to let the siren pass." β
Hermes didn't know about hemolysis, he didn't know about Cronus, he only knew that the war was about to start, and lately he had been running around for Zeus, helping him inform the gods who lived everywhere and get them ready to go to war.
The siren's soul is so weak, if she is on a battlefield where all gods are present, she will definitely not survive, Hermes looked for the siren everywhere, just to remind her of this, but he didn't expect to see the siren so close to Olympus, God knows that his heart almost jumped out at that time.
After taking two deep breaths, and then looking at Siren and Dionysus, he also knew that the two were back together, Hermes sighed, and said to the Siren: "Zeus has been brewing a great war, I have been helping him find a god to participate in the war recently, Zeus called you over, he should also want you to join the war, but you can't go." β
In the last sentence, Hermes said extremely strictly, and the siren frowned, "Why?" β
Hermes looked at Dio before explaining, "Because this is a war between gods." β
A war between the gods?
Dio immediately asked, "With whom is Zeus going to war?" β
Hermes was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I can't say. "Hermes' loyalty to Zeus is absolute, and he will not betray Zeus.
Dio had known this for a long time, so he changed his words, "Is it Cronos?" β
Hermes's eyes widened slightly, and Dio's heart was clear, and it was indeed so. The siren was stunned for a moment when she saw Hermes's reaction, and the recent events flashed through her mind like a marquee, and the related things were strung together, and she suddenly understood what had happened.
Kronos is leaving Tartarus, and he is the one who helped him out!
The siren's face suddenly turned pale, and Prometheus's words rang in his ears, "Siren, don't get hurt, don't bleed, you know?" β
She had already shed blood, and that blood was dripping on the earth......
"Gaia!"
Siren screamed, Hermes didn't know what to do, Siren grabbed Dio's arm and looked at him eagerly, "My blood is flowing to the ground, Kronos just wants his blood to return to the earth, and then contact Gaia!" β
Dio was stunned, hearing the siren's words, he also understood Kronos's plan, how many years Kronos planned no one knew, and no one cared, because this plan had been successful, Gaia would see everything Kronos wanted to tell her from the siren's blood, no wonder Zeus wanted to prepare for war with great fanfare, from the time the Siren's blood flowed to the earth, the war was already on the verge of breaking out.
Hermes looked at the two of them, their faces became more and more ugly, and although he didn't know what was happening, his heart sank, and he was afraid that something would happen to the sirens.
"What the hell is going on?"
The siren looked at Dian with a pale face, and Dio nodded, his voice floating: "Sue him." β
Although Dio didn't like Hermes, but apart from himself, the only one who could help the sirens the most and never hurt her was Hermes, and now he needed to think about it and sort everything out, he wanted to know what the Zeus fortress siren wanted to do in the past.
After listening to the siren, Hermes was even more shocked than them, Hermes knew a lot of things they didn't know, so he understood the strictness of this matter better, Hermes couldn't speak, and he couldn't accept this fact.
Suddenly, Dio understood Zeus's intentions, his eyes lit up, and instead of looking at Hermes, he hugged the siren's waist, he ignored the surprised eyes of the two, and then rushed into the sky with the siren, flying towards the original destination.
