The 817th comes
Argos.
This once the most prosperous city of mankind has completely lost its joy.
There was a dead silence throughout the city.
"Hand over the princess, hand over the princess!"
Countless civilians poured into the streets, and they gathered together, some rushing to the gates of the city, others taking up arms and rushing to the palace.
"Save us, Your Majesty King Kephes, and save your people."
"As long as the princess is sacrificed alone, the fate of the entire people of Argos City can be saved!"
"Princess Andromeda, you are the pearl of Argos, our hope, I beg you to ......"
Threats, cries, shouts, mingles, death was approaching, and no one cared about the majesty of the king, in fact, not only the common people, but also the guards and the nobles of the city were involved in the turmoil.
The ugliness of pre-death plays out here, and if it weren't for Dragu's timely return to Argos to reorganize the guards, the entire city would have been consumed by despair before Hades arrived.
"Look, my daughter, this is the people who sing praises to you on weekdays, hum."
Kephes sneered, "Listen, what a high-sounding reason, in order to keep yourself alive, everyone wants you to die." ”
Watching the city run by the royal family for hundreds of years fall in his own hands, a trace of heartache flashed in Kephes's eyes, but soon, these emotions were hidden, and then turned into complete determination.
"Let me out, father."
"We don't have any other way."
"Hades will put an end to this scourge by taking me, and I am willing to sacrifice myself for the sake of the entire kingdom."
Andromeda raised his head.
"But I don't want to!"
Kephes growled.
"I've lost my son, and I don't want to lose my only daughter again!"
A hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, "Andromeda, can't you be selfish for once?!" ”
Andromeda shook her head, "I don't want to die either, but this is where I live, and I am familiar with the walls and the bazaars and the many ordinary people who live here. ”
"The most important thing is you, my father."
"It doesn't matter if I'm dead, as long as you're here, you can definitely rebuild Argos."
Kephes sighed, hesitated, but he swallowed the truth that came to his lips.
If Andromeda had been selfish, he might have told her, but for now......
He decided to go with the flow.
"Okay, I'll go with you."
Although it was morning, the warm sun covered the earth, but it was strange that people in the city did not feel much of the sun's temperature.
King Kephes and Andromeda stood on the altar at the top of Argos.
The altar is facing the sea, and it was once the place where Argos was sacrificed like the god of the sea.
The sun was slowly climbing upward, but at this moment, there was some inexplicable coolness in the air.
In the distance, the sea was churning, and a large black shadow could be faintly seen passing under the water's surface.
"Here we are."
Andromeda froze.
At the same time, above the sky, there were several figures watching what was happening in Argos.
"Father, will Hades keep his promise?"
Apollo asked.
"Maybe, maybe not."
The majestic face of Zeus has no waves in the ancient well.
"It doesn't matter, whatever he does, he will fail today."
"Kill, the more he kills, the more people hate him, and when I make a move, the more grateful they will be to me."
"Stupidity is human nature."
Looking at Zeus's back, Apollo seemed to understand something, and on the other side, Ares also showed some panic on his face.
It is clear that Zeus did not intend to keep his promise at this time, whether Hades killed 5,000 or 50,000 people, Zeus would eventually defeat them with his own hands.
Then he will be adored by all again, and the king of Argos will become a blasphemous clown, completely torn apart by the citizens he loves.
Consolidating his position, appeasing Hades, and suppressing it, Zeus will be the final winner.
Wearing armor and holding a weapon, Maka stood beside Dragu, looking at the dark shadow looming on the sea level in the distance, and his face couldn't help but show a hint of eagerness.
"Are you going to kill it?" Marca asked.
"Kill it, how?"
A warrior next to him asked in a cold voice, "Our weapon is like a needle to him, not to mention that the Kraken is invulnerable, and no weapon can pierce its defenses." ”
In the face of such a monster, even the bravest warrior cannot have confidence.
"So what, normal weapons don't work, we can try more advanced weapons."
Maka raised his hand.
"If Mr. Mawson is here, it probably won't be a problem to deal with this monster."
Marca looked adoring.
"Even if Mawson is here, he is indeed powerful, but he is still too small compared to the Kraken, this is the seaside, his flame can be easily extinguished, without the flame, he can't even break the Kraken's defenses."
"Maybe it's because he knows this that he stayed there and fooled around with the woman instead of choosing to come back and help us."
"Coward!"
"Cowards on the run!"
Someone said coldly.
"You are not allowed to insult Mr. Mawson!"
Maca clenched his weapon, his face full of murder, "Apologize immediately, otherwise ......"
"How else?"
The warrior who spoke was named Isobias, he was only in his 20s, and when the crisis came, his whole spirit was stretched to the limit, and the string in his heart could be broken at any time.
"Shut up and stop arguing."
Dragu spoke suddenly.
"But he must apologize, apologize for insulting Mr. Mawson!"
Marca pressed for it.
Draghu was about to say something more, when a huge wave rolled in the distance and a column of water rushed into the sky.
Cracking sound.
Along with the seawater, countless fish fell from the sky, and then a black shadow got closer and closer to the water.
Eventually, the water broke out.
It was a hideous monster with dark skin, three pairs of narrow eyes, and a large mouth that took up half of its face, and it had octopus-like tentacles and sharp claws, and its limbs could support its body.
Howl!
It let out a wild roar, and the tentacles on both sides of its body suddenly poked out from the bottom of the sea, and slammed into the city of Argos from top to bottom.
Rumble!
The ground shook, houses collapsed, and residents were killed and injured.
His tentacles, though resembling octopuses, do not have suckers, but are covered with sharp scales.
The two tentacles tightened, dragging a deep furrow on the ground, allowing it to rush towards Argos at a faster speed.
Facing the Sky-Covering figure of Kraken, the whole city went completely crazy, and at the same time, a dark shadow appeared in mid-air, and he landed on top of Kraken's head.
Black hair and black robe.
None other than Hades.
"Hungry?"
"Go."
"Eat enough!"
Hades said coldly, at this time, there was no previous humility on his face, replaced by a solemnity.
