430, the gatekeeper of the mountain of the gods [1/3]

On the highest peak of Paradise Island.

Ouyang Jing's eyes were blazing, and he looked around.

After being promoted to the sixth star, his Dao body spirit eyes rose, and his vision became broader, keen, and observant. Even the formless and substantial magic array can be seen clearly at a glance, and even the energy veins inside it can be seen.

In his spiritual vision, the magic array that covered the Paradise Island was shaped like an upside-down giant bowl.

Its bottom is deep into the sea, connected to the seabed, and draws endless leyline energy from the seabed, which is transported to the magic array through thousands of intricate and complex energy pipelines.

A part of the leyline energy is used to maintain the existence of the magic array itself. The other part is transformed into pure aura, nourishing the entire paradise island, so that the paradise island will always be full of aura, the four seasons are like spring, and the products are abundant.

However, except for the large magic array that covered the entire island, on Paradise Island, there was no magic array to be seen.

Even the royal palace, the "artifact" storeroom, and even the forbidden place where the "mother box" is kept, do not have even the most basic defensive magic array.

"Having said that, although the large magic array outside Paradise Island is huge in scale and covers the entire island, its function is very simple. It can only make Paradise Island invisible and create a misty area on the periphery, as well as transform the aura......"

Ouyang Jing touched his chin and muttered to himself: "Such a big magic array, but even an ordinary person can't stop it." Anyone can break straight in, and the defense is basically zero...... The magical abilities of the gods of Olympus don't feel very powerful! ”

The gods of Olympus, who are not very powerful in magic, are afraid that they are not capable of building a teleportation array directly to Olympus on Paradise Island.

Ouyang Jing looked carefully at the entire island with his Dao body and spiritual eyes, but he couldn't find a trace of the existence of the teleportation array, and couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.

"I don't think there is such a passage on Paradise Island. Do you want to go to Mount Olympus to look for it? ”

After pondering for a while, Ouyang Jing planned to consult with Queen Hippolyta first.

Her Majesty was Zeus's lover after all, and gave birth to Zeus's youngest daughter, Diana, perhaps she would know about the traces of Olympus.

……

"Olympus?"

In the palace, in the face of the question raised by Ouyang Jing, who came to visit alone, Queen Hippolyta couldn't help but be stunned: "Isn't Mount Olympus in northern Greece?" ”

Ouyang Jing said: "Your Majesty, I am talking about the Olympus where Zeus and the gods live. ”

Queen Hippolyta said lightly: "Zeus and the gods live on Mount Olympus in northern Greece. ”

Ouyang Jing was stunned: "Won't it?" It was just an ordinary mountain peak that was just over 2,900 meters high......"

Queen Hippolyta said: "But in the ancient mythological era, such a tall, snowy, cloud-shrouded mountain was already an insurmountable moat for mortals. The gods dwelled on the top of the mountain, enough to keep themselves at a distance from mortals, to maintain their mystery and majesty. ”

“…… Well, Your Majesty you are right. However, Diana said that Olympus was not on Earth. ”

"That's what I coaxed her." A smile flashed in Queen Hippolyta's eyes: "Just as I once told her that I carved her out of clay and brought it to life by Zeus." ”

Ouyang Jing sweated: "Your Majesty, you are really ......"

"But......" The queen suddenly changed her tone, "a long, long time ago, Zeus once inadvertently mentioned something to me. He said...... Mount Olympus, where the gods live, is not really Olympus. ”

"What?" Ouyang Jing's spirit perked up: "What do you mean...... The true abode of the gods is not in the Greek Olympus, but in the real Olympus? ”

"No, that's not what I meant."

The queen shook her head and said, "Zeus and the gods do live on Mount Olympus. But Zeus seems to mean ...... On top of Mount Olympus, where they lived, there was a real Olympus. And Zeus and the gods, just the real Olympus'...... Concierge. ”

"Zeus and the gods are just gatekeepers......"

Ouyang Jing was shocked: "Could it be the real Olympus...... Is it the true mountain of the gods? ”

"I don't know. Zeus didn't say much to me. ”

Queen Hippolyta said, "If you just want to find the abode of Zeus and the gods, then the Olympus in northern Greece is the place to be." If you want to find the real Olympus...... Sorry, I don't know where it is either. ”

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty." Ouyang Jing bowed to the queen sincerely: "Thank you for telling me such valuable information. ”

"Not necessarily. Diana told me that she was able to kill Ares this time because of the guidance and special training you have given her over the past year. ”

Speaking of this, Queen Hippolyta's eyes became very strange, giving Ouyang Jing a ...... The mother-in-law looks at the subtlety of her son-in-law.

She said, "Diana also said that you are also a god? The gods of the East? ”

"Not really." Ouyang Jing smiled: "According to the standards of the gods of Olympus, I can indeed be regarded as a god. But by a higher standard, I'm just a demigod, and I'm still quite far from the true god. ”

"Demigods? That's pretty remarkable. ”

A flash of relief flashed in the queen's eyes: "A mortal cannot be Diana's partner. It's not that I look down on mortals, it's just that Diana was born a demigod, immortal, and eternally young. A mortal who does not live more than a hundred, with her, it will only be a tragedy. If Diana and mortals are combined...... Then when she attended her grandson's funeral, she was a teenage girl.

Therefore, only the existence of the same immortality and eternal youth can become a good match for Diana. By the way, why are you looking for Olympus? Do you want to inherit the legacy of the gods? ”

"I don't think the gods have much to leave behind." Ouyang Jing said: "If there is really any inheritance worth mentioning, Ares, who destroyed the Olympus god line, cannot be so weak. ”

"You're right. The gods don't have a great legacy. The queen nodded approvingly: "Zeus's most precious legacy is Diana, and you have already got her." ”

"I know. So I looked for Olympus just to solve a puzzle. Ouyang Jing said: "Doubts about why the gods can create life. ”

"You mean...... We Amazons? ”

"Yes." Ouyang Jing said: "By my standards, Zeus and the gods, strictly speaking, are just demigods, and they can only be called gods in ancient times when civilization was ignorant. Once they enter the era of technological explosion, they will fall off the altar. And it is impossible for demigods to have the ability to create life, especially since they created an immortal species with strong talent like the Amazons. ”

"I'm just as confused about that."

The queen is very open-minded on this issue. She did not believe in the myth that the gods created mankind, and reprimanded Diana for believing in this myth.

But she did not deny the origin of the Amazons: "The gods who can create our Amazons should be omnipotent in theory." But they actually aren't. The abilities that the gods should have in theory do not quite match the abilities that they should manifest in the future. ”

Ouyang Jing said: "So I want to solve this doubt." ”

"So, will you take Diana with you on this expedition?"

"Nope." Ouyang Jing said: "This exploration may be dangerous. I don't want to put her in danger. In order that she should not be in a hurry, I intend to leave now, and ask Her Majesty to apologize to her on my behalf. ”
