Chapter 236: Athena Descends
Athena really left, and Wu Jian really didn't stop her anymore.
"Is it really okay to let her go like this? Yuri shouldn't have a way to deal with Athena yet, right? β
Erica leaned over, very worried about Yuri Wanlitani.
"It's okay, I was originally going to try it to see how effective the force I gave was. I don't look good, even if there is a case, it's a big deal to go to the underworld. "Since you say that, then I can only approve of it. So, what do we do now? β
"You don't need to do anything, just walk slowly, and let's see how far Yuri can go."
Wu Jian took a step, and Erica also chased after him, the pace of the two was neither slow nor fast, it was the speed at which ordinary people usually walked.
At this time, Athena had already moved away from Wu Jian.
ββ
Finally convinced that Wu Jian did not catch up, Athena, who had always had doubts, stopped.
What the hell was he thinking? would even let the concubine take back the strength of the body, so confident in himself? β
Athena wanted to say that she was more confident, but for some reason, she didn't have any confidence when she faced Wu Jian. Although she always tried her best to deal with Wu Jian when facing Wu Jian, she took it for granted in the face of failure.
"What is the strength that makes the concubine feel that even if she retrieves the strength of the force, she can't defeat him? Is it because you have to face the power of the otherworldly realm? β
I don't understand, even if it is a power that does not belong to this world, Athena has no reason to lose confidence. Is it because of Wu Jian's easy-to-use attitude? Or is it because Wu Jian's strength is so strong that she instinctively feels that she is not an opponent? None of this is important, there is no need to think about it now, everything can only be decided after the "snake" is retrieved.
Athena gave up thinking for a moment and began to move in the direction of the serpent again, and at the same time recited the spirit of words.
"Ordered by Athena's real name. Darkness appears here, dispel the sun's bounty, and extinguish the fire of Prometheus. The sky is full of stars and the dark wind, and the ancient night is recreated here. β
Within a certain range centered on Athena, the functions of the city were completely paralyzed. All the lights were out, all the vehicles could not move, and the only light that was emitted was the moon and stars in the sky. After the absence of artificial lights, the stars and the moon showed their original light, and it was a truly beautiful sight. However, no one pays attention to such a beautiful view, and even if someone wants to take advantage of this opportunity to relax and enjoy the rare beauty of this moment, they will immediately be shocked by another vision.
Power outages are a normal phenomenon for people in modern cities. Although uncommon, it is not unacceptable. But! If there is a situation where even the vehicle cannot operate with a power outage, it is not an explainable phenomenon.
People, very quickly, fell into a panic.
Anger, turmoil, embarrassment, confusion, distress and other negative emotions are pervasive in the city, and even places that have not yet been affected begin to become chaotic.
As Athena moved, so did that vision. Although the range was limited, the vision at the edge of Athena's power range returned to normal, but the chaos did not dissolve, but became more "lively" under the gaze of the lights.
Feeling the insecurity, fear, discouragement, and powerlessness of the people under her feet, Athena rejoiced. But she didn't stop, but continued to recite the Spirit.
"All I ask for is the 'Stone of Gorgon'! Athena will reclaim the ancient serpent tonight! β
With Athena's words, the form of a bird appeared in the airβit was an owl.
After dozens of owls appeared, they did not fly away in all directions, but circled in the air. As the number increases, the more directional the owls become, and when they reach a certain value, all the owls chirp in one direction and fly in that direction in unison.
"There, it looks like he didn't do anything. Really, is the concubine underestimated? β
Even if she doesn't summon an owl, Athena can spot the "snake". The owl was summoned just in case. However, the location of the "Stone of Gorgon" is the same as she sensed, and the fact that the owl has no vision means that there are no other problems. This lack of care about her retrieving the "snake" made Athena feel that she was being underestimated, and her anger immediately rose.
But
"The concubine body is really, for this kind of trivial matter, let's get back the 'snake' first."
Athena muttered to herself and followed the owl's direction.
At the shrine at Athena's destination, Yuri Wanri and a man are waiting for Athena's arrival.
"Huh, Wanli Valley, the things you want to arrange are finally arranged. But Athena seems to be almost there. β
Looking at the lights that kept going out at the foot of the mountain, the man couldn't help but have an anxious look on his face.
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Gansu."
Wanli Gu Yuli bowed politely, but saw Gan Ji shaking his hand again and again, and said: "I can't afford it, you must know that Lu Dao, you were included in the **, and your identity is much more noble than me!" β
"Mr. Gansu"
I don't know if Lu Dao Ganji is joking or serious, Wanli Gu Yuli can only accompany him with a wry smile.
"Seriously, you want me to prepare these things, don't you!? Is it intended to be an enemy of Athena? β
"Yes, he's probably going to test my strength."
"Force? Has the king given you the strength to do so? β
"Yes."
"Ahh Gan Ji pressed his forehead and looked up to the sky and sighed: "You must be crazy." You should know that if it's just a divine beast or something, you can indeed rely on the power given to deal with it, but if you want to face a god head-on, it's impossible! β
"From a common sense point of view, it is indeed impossible. However, the amount of power he gives is not such a simple thing. β
"Whether it's something simple or not, are you going to rely on the things I want me to prepare to deal with Athena?"
Ganji refers to the things that Wanli Gu Yuli asked him to prepare after meeting Wu Jian, and these things have also been arranged and placed in a certain direction and order, which is obviously a formation. However, although this formation made him feel familiar, he still couldn't see what it was.
"Well, if you have enough time, you can also prepare a more complete formation. However, this one is also available now. β
ββ
Unexpectedly, after looking around, what he said was like that, and Ganji could only be speechless, where did this confidence come from?
"Forget it, I don't have that much ability. Athena is coming, I'll leave first, and I'll have to clean up the mess Athena has caused. β
"Please be careful."
After seeing Ganji leave, Athena almost reached the foot of the mountain, although she passed by Gansu, but Athena was not interested in him at all, and went directly to the shrine on the mountain.
"Athena, Yuri is already waiting for you."
"You have the aura I care about, and is it the strength that doesn't belong to this world?"
Although she always talks about the power that does not belong to this world, it doesn't mean that Athena has any prejudice, just a vigilance against the powerful and unfamiliar force.
"Yes, that's my lord's expectation, so let me be your opponent for the time being."
ββ
Athena was silent, honestly it would be better to be against anyone, and it wouldn't make her feel cheaper (if necessary), but she found something wrong with Yuri Riniya.
"Girl, have you been devoured by the force?"
"No, it's just because of my immaturity. When I haven't fully mastered this force, it's good to use it less often. β
"In this case, for the madmen who dare to stand in front of the concubine, let the concubine personally punish him."
That being said, Athena's first priority now is to retrieve the "snake", so she plans to teach a casual lesson when Yuri Wankariya intervenes to stop it. However, when she controlled the opening of the box containing the "Stone of Gorgon", Yuri Waniya did not stop it, and even let the "Stone of Gorgon" fly to her side, and she didn't see any movement of the witch in front of her, just watching Athena's series of actions.
"Is this also his order?"
Athena was not in a hurry to devour the "snake".
"No, it's my discretion."
"Oh?"
Athena looked at Yuri Wanri with curiosity, but Yuri Wanri closed her eyes.
ββ
ββ
"The concubine probably understands your strategy, but the 'snake' has not been done, is it just those gadgets you arranged?"
"Exactly, if I stop you now, I'm going to lose. But when you get your strength back, I'll have a chance of winning. β
"Hehehe, the person who got involved with that guy is really interesting. Well, the concubine body is also curious about your strength, as you wish. β
Then, Athena chanted aloud.
"The concubine sang, chanting the ode of the Triune goddess. Connecting the sky, the earth, and the darkness is for reincarnation and wisdom.
The concubine sang and sang the song of the goddess who had been degraded. As a queen, she is regarded as a forbidden snake, and she sighs for the queen.
The concubine sang and sang the goddess's poems of torn body and mind. To be humiliated by a noble father is a humiliation to a loving mother.
My name is Athena, the daughter of Zeus, the patron goddess of Athens, and the eternal virgin.
In the past, it was the mother of the earth who gave birth to all things! In the past, for the lord of the dark underworld! In the past, she was the queen of wisdom who knew the wisdom of the heavens! The concubine swears that Athena is about to return to the original Athena! β
