25. Paradise

The objects floating in the sky are things that can be seen every day, such as a pocket watch, a radio, and a diamond ring.

According to Charon, these are the lost hopes and dreams of mankind, and in short, Li Yue did not understand how these things became the dreams of mankind.

Could it be that someone's lifelong dream is a pocket watch?

The boat sailed on top of the hell, allowing Li Yue to see that countless dead people were being tortured all the time, and the hot magma and flames had been eroding this area. In the distance, you can see a towering European-style castle, where Hades and Persephone lived.

The place where Li Yue wants to go needs to pass through Hell and the castle where Hades lives, called Elysée Paradise.

Unlike the previous hell, I heard that Elysée Paradise is no different from heaven, except that there are no angels.

"Your destination, arrived, I wish you all the best of luck."

Charon parked the boat on the edge of the Elysée Park, a grassland with blue skies and huge windmills in the distance.

With Li Yue's eyesight, of course, he could see that this sky was fake.

"Interesting."

If you don't look at those fake places, it's almost like the paradise that people imagine, it's like getting a person into a warm-toned photo, everything is so charming and beautiful.

There is a negative substance in the underworld that has been trying to penetrate Li Yue's body, trying to assimilate Li Yue into a part of the underworld. This substance was extremely powerful, and Li Yue felt that he would not be able to stay in the underworld for long.

"Let's see if we can go back."

Although the peaceful village in the distance can attract Li Yue, Li Yue still decides to try if he can travel back to reality first.

In his perception, the mana located in the cave had flickered and blurred, like the mana that had been placed for a month, becoming less and less consumed with time. However, Li Yue has only been left for a few hours, and it is impossible to dissipate, even if he is in the underworld, he cannot erode the magic left by Li Yue.

Li Yue placed a magic seed on this grassland, then closed his eyes and carefully sensed the magic left in the cave, and cast a teleportation when the magic flickered most clearly.

A large amount of magic disappeared from Li Yue's body, and I believe that from the earth to the moon, such a large amount of magic power will not be needed, and the magic power in Li Yue's body will almost be drained.

And the way through was not smooth, it was originally just a flickering thing, but Li Yue saw the scene in hell in the space passage, and the blood-red skin and horned demons were cruelly abusing the people in hell.

After Li Yue landed, he suddenly felt that the world was spinning, and he almost fainted.

"No, there is a problem with the space of this underworld, I am enough to choke on my own, and I definitely can't take a few of them with me."

I don't think I can get the pearls.

Fortunately, I have a recording of Posey to clear up the misunderstanding, as long as the end of the world does not happen, then there will always be a chance to get this thing in the future.

………………

In the Lotus Casino, Posey and his friends have fallen into the satisfaction brought by the fruit of the Tree of Forgetfulness, and any normal person who comes to this place will sigh at the absurdity. Because people here don't think about anything, and their memory is extremely poor, they definitely can't remember what they said or did in the last few minutes.

Posey was about to take the fruit of the Tree of Forgetfulness and put it in his mouth, when a reminder from Poseidon suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Posey, Posey wake up, Posey ......"

"Huh?" Percy felt that he had heard something, and put the lotus down, his eyes showing confusion.

"Posey, listen to Posey, you have to get out of here now, do you remember what you had to do? Here you sink, don't eat this lotus, Posey......"

Posey's doubts became heavier and heavier, and he finally patted his head: "Oh oh oh! I'm here to find pearls, pearls ......."

His consciousness finally returned, remembering everything that had come before.

"Hello sir, would you like one?"

"No, not now."

He began to wander around the Lotus Casino, consciously looking for the blue pearl, and finally found it in a gambling board, but Posey did not dare to act rashly, and hurriedly ran towards his two friends.

Grove was lying on the couch at the moment, surrounded by a lot of young blondes, and Annabeth was watching the excitement from the side.

Grove spotted Percy who had just walked in.

"Hey, Percy, where have you been? We're talking about ...... Uh, girls, where are we talking? ”

One of the girls reminded: "It seems to be married? ”

"Yes, yes, we're going to get married, hahaha, in the golden church, I swore an oath with a few girls......" "Bang ......"

Percy suddenly slapped Grove in the face, which not only scared the girls around him, but also startled Annabeth. "Hey, Percy, what are you doing?"

"Listen, Grove, we're not here to enjoy, Grove, we've got to go."

Grove touched the slap on his face and said, "Hey! You're so disappointed! ”

"Wake me up!" Posey said. "Look at me! Look at me! Listen, we're all hypnotized, we've been tricked! OK。 Listen to me, if we eat these lotus flowers again, you will never want to leave again, understand? We will be stuck here forever. ”

Annabeth had received countless training before, and her resistance was also high, and she woke up at the reminder of Percy, and Grove himself is a mythical character who also wakes up quickly.

Posey looked at the casino staff in the distance, shook his head and said, "OK." We've got to go, let's go! ”

"I understand what you said, you go find the pearls, and I'll lure them away."

Percy knew where Pearl was, and now he just ran straight to that place, and Grove remembered that there was a sports car in the doorway, and quickly ran over to get out of here.

After a big fight, Grove finally drove out of the Lotus Casino.

Annabeth gasped, "I think I know what this place is. ”

"What?" Posey asked.

"This is the nest of the Lotus Eaters, and they must want to keep us here and let Zeus go to war with Poseidon."

"What time is it now?"

"I don't know, we should have been in there for days."

Grove is a good driver, drifting on the road a few times and successfully escaping from the Lotus Eater's lair. What they didn't know was that Li Yue was standing on the edge of the intersection where they had fled, wearing a sweatshirt and a black hood.

"Escaped from here so quickly? Poseidon really cares about his son. ”
