Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Power of Hercules

【Genealogy of the Gods: Styx (1)】: The entrance to the underworld is turbulent with several rivers of the underworld. The first river is Acheron, known as the River of Grievance, the River of Distress, and the River of Feathering, and is guarded by the River Styx's ferryman, Charon, through which all those who enter the underworld must pass through it first.

----------------------------------------------------

Legend has it that wherever the goddess of peace, Erine, passes, everything will return to its most primitive peace, the rushing rivers will be as calm as a trickle, and will not bring disaster to the creatures downstream, the shaking earth will immediately stop cracking and gradually heal the unfathomable cracks in the earth, and the grudges will be immediately resolved on the-for-tat battlefield, and the soldiers on both sides will embrace each other and weep, thanking for the beauty of peace.

With his peace powers, Markolov influenced all the soldiers of the two coalition armies, causing them to lose morale, and only 50% of their strength could be exerted, plus the battlefield was a killing field of hard work, so that the Thebai Kingdom was able to hold the city wall with far less strength than the other party, and did not let the enemy take a step forward.

But at this time, the one who challenged Markov, the former human hero, was the now famous general Tirins on the continent, the half-brother of the demigod Hercules, Iphicles!

What Iphicles comprehended, like Xuros, was the power of Hercules, which represented absolute power, capable of harnessing the qi and blood beyond what humans could contain, and twisting it into a single force that was incomparable, unmatched, and pure.

But Iphicles is I don't know how many times stronger than Xu Rus, just one person's qi and blood can match the army of 10,000 people, at least tens of thousands of horsepower. Markov's power of peace was like a barrier made of ice, collided by the scorching force, and was immediately broken through at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Markov, old and immortal, your time has long passed, and now you dare to appear in front of me. Iphicles' contemptuous voice came from the majestic blood: "In that case, I will destroy you and this city together, and destroy me!"

Breaking the mountain fist is a technique that condenses qi and blood to the extreme after comprehending the power of Hercules, and even if it is a towering mountain peak when it falls, it will be ruthlessly crushed.

Xu Ross had used a mountain-breaking punch once, but it was only a rudimentary punch, and it was only a punch that was superficial, and its power was not comparable to that of Iphicles at all. Now that this real mountain-breaking fist has appeared, it is really to directly explode the entire Thebai Royal City as a mountain.

Markov's expression was serious, and without saying a word, he watched as the barrier pulled up by the peace divine power was broken through little by little, and when the blood and qi that covered the sky and the sun were pressed down, his pupils suddenly contracted, and his body, which had been sitting firmly on the city wall, finally moved, and hit the qi and blood above his head with the divine power fed back from the idol.

Markolov was like the last bulwark of the Thebais royal city, resisting the giant hand that wanted to destroy the entire city, completely condensed by qi and blood, while the armor on his body continued to shine with a light similar to divine power.

The power of a thousand-man enemy can destroy an army of a thousand people in an instant, and even inflict heavy damage on the most powerful cities on the continent with his own strength. For example, the city wall is like a tangible barrier, completely blocking the power of the collision of two thousand-strong people, and the civilians standing within the city wall can't even feel any unusual fluctuations in the air.

Kratos squinted slightly at the two strong men who were stalemate in the sky, and at this time, the suppression of the blood soul absorption was suddenly released, and the blood souls all over the battlefield had abnormal movements, like a river being pulled, flowing in the direction where Kratos was.

Although the offensive of the two coalition forces was greatly weakened by the influence of the Divine Power of Peace, Thebai's soldiers gradually became tired, and with thousands of troops, even if they relied on the city walls, they could not withstand the onslaught of an enemy ten times their size.

The commander Ifikles was held back by Markov, and the siege of the two coalition soldiers suffered a setback, and if there was a third party at this time, it was the best time to cut into the battlefield.

But what is strange is that the Mycenaean Army, which should be on the back of the coalition forces of the two countries at this time, has not moved until now, and if they launch a sneak attack from behind at this time, they will definitely be able to inflict heavy losses on the coalition forces of the two countries under the front and rear attacks.

The eldest prince Alubond, who had comprehended the divine power of the sun god, joined forces with the former human hero Markolov, and it is very likely that Iphicles will even be left behind, as long as his commander is killed, the tens of thousands of soldiers of the combined forces of the two countries will collapse immediately.

"What the hell is Alubond doing, he hasn't made a move yet, is he going to wait until Thebai and the two coalition forces are both defeated?"

Because of the angle, the city wall has already covered the fierce battle between the two thousand-strong men in mid-air, but from the constant vibrations, we can know that this battle must be beyond imagination, and it has gradually fallen out of the scope that mortals can set foot in.

Seeing the unexpected situation, Kratos's mind raced, constantly guessing about the conspiracy of Alubond, who was the commander of the Mycenaean nobles' private army, and at the same time got up from the ground where he was squatting, and after devouring the blood souls generated by the death of thousands of dead soldiers on the battlefield, the damage suffered by his body basically recovered, except that the source of pain could not be used, and he already had the ability to forcibly break through.

Kratos only thought for a moment, and then immediately made the decision to return to the palace. But at this moment, the ground under his feet suddenly shook, and it seemed that the entire royal city of Thebai was jumping. Affected by this sudden upheaval, tens of thousands of civilians were also awakened from their devout prayers, and looked up at the darkened sky with horrified expressions.

A huge foot trampled on the city wall, and hundreds of Thebai soldiers were trampled to flesh by this foot, and the strong city wall could not withstand the force of the huge foot, and began to crack from the foothold, and large pieces of stone fell down one after another.

Kratos looked at this huge human foot in shock, and along the ankle was a series of complete human bodies, calves, thighs, under the cover of the blood in the sky, a huge body loomed, only the terrifying aura became more and more vigorous.

Kratos had seen the ancestor of the three-headed giant, Gryon, in the Barrens, a powerful monster with Titan blood, at least a thousand or more powerful monsters. Although he didn't see all of them at the time, it was conceivable that the three-headed giant Grimion's body was definitely bigger than the city of Telian.

Although the body of the giant who suddenly appeared now was not as high as that of the three-headed giant Geryon, the height of the man standing at this time had completely exceeded the walls of the royal city of Thebais, and he could even trample on the battlements with one foot.

At this time, the only person who could still stand firmly beside the giant was the great general of Thebai, Markolov, but the light representing the supernatural powers on his body at this time was dim, and even the monster armor made of Empsa's body had returned to its original gray appearance.

"Markov, your body has decayed and decayed, the human heroes of the past are nothing more than waste that can't even hold blood and energy, now I will kill you, and deprive you of your supernatural powers, and help me climb to the mysterious realm of the gods!"

The giant made an earth-shattering sound, and the surrounding qi and blood were blown away by the powerful qi waves, revealing the appearance of a general wearing armor behind him.

This giant is actually Iphicles!

Kratos's heart shook after seeing the giant's appearance clearly, it was actually Iphicles, the commander of the alliance between the two countries!

Today's Iphicles has not only become extremely large, but even the qi and blood power emanating from his body has increased countless times, and the surging qi and blood in his body are like the endless Eurotas River, the number is simply boundless, covering tens of thousands of soldiers in the battlefield in an instant.

At this time, Iphicles, who burst out with all his strength, can crumble the strong city wall with one foot and kill thousands of people with a single punch, and the power of one person alone is enough to destroy a city. This is Hercules' magical power, breaking through the limits of human beings and mastering pure and powerful qi and blood power!

Kratos' heart couldn't help beating violently, and a greedy roar erupted in his heart at this time, he longed to be able to master the power of the supernatural, to have this power that could almost rival the gods!

Markolov suddenly lowered his head and glanced in a certain direction in the city, before turning his gaze to the statue of Erene, the Three Goddesses of Order, whose voice without a trace of emotion resounded throughout the city of Thebais.

"Subjects of Thebais, dedicate your faith, and I will give my life to protect our kingdom and defend our last remaining territory. ”

Hearing Markov's voice, all the people in the royal city of Thebais bowed their heads again and chanted the name of the goddess Errene to the idol.

Seeing the senseless struggle of the Thebais people in front of the temporary, Iphicles's face, magnified countless times, appeared with a sinister smile, and the heart-beating voice buzzed in the air: "The gods are high and selfishly enjoy the faith of mankind. Even if you can gather tens of thousands of believers, the power you can get feedback from the idol is only one ten-thousandth, and only your own power is truly domineering!"

"Hercules, tens of thousands of qi and blood twisted into a single body, condensed into the body of a giant, this is the real power, Markov, give me death!"

Iphicles's patience had also reached its limit, and he was not willing to let this rotten human hero foolishly show off his vulnerable supernatural powers in front of him, and wanted to use his purest qi and blood power to blow him up!

"Well, Markov, you're killing yourself!"

Suddenly, Ifikles felt the fluctuation of power germination from Markov's decaying body, and the originally decayed qi and blood actually soared and flourished at an incredible speed.
