Chapter 17: The Forbidden Place
Cali sat in the atrium sipping a glass of champagne.
Feeling a little lonely and bored, she stretched out a delicate finger and stirred back and forth in the amber liquor, only to catch a glimpse of the dark god passing by the hallway of the doorway.
"Demos!"
She called him to see him walk in.
"Today is a good day for you, why are you still wandering around, and you are not afraid of snubbing the beauty?"
Cali sipped his wine and laughed.
"Hmph! That kid really earned it. Is it worth exchanging such an innocent body for a human life?"
Demos muttered to himself and remained silent. There was a hazy fog under his eyes, like a faint sorrow.
Cali watched him turn away, dragging his heavy, lonely back.
She smiled. Somehow, a feeling of uneasiness suddenly appeared in my heart.
On a reef on the island, Kamod and Paciu stand facing the sea.
"How's it going? Still not?"
Pacius didn't answer Kamod, just shook his head, helplessly staring at the crimson sunset.
"Damn! Damn! It's been two days! Karetta's disappearance must have something to do with the God of Darkness! I won't let him go! But the Chinese look like demented again, and they can't help at all!"
Commodmus was so annoyed that he crouched down and slammed his fist into the rock, his eyes red.
"I'll go to Rhode Island tomorrow at sunrise, and I'll be sure to find the entrance to the Dark Temple as soon as possible!"
After Kamod had vented his frenzy, Bai Xiu gently reached out and patted him on the shoulder, his handsome face with tiredness.
"I'm sorry you've been hurt by Karete's business. β
Kamod was a little reluctant, and his agitated mood eased a lot, he knew that using the light and shadow cast by the sun to search for other dimensions was a physically demanding spell.
The other party just smiled kindly, "Don't say that, we're a team." β
"It's not about business" is the rule of Bai Xiu's way of doing things, and in the Olympus family, this indifference has indeed brought him a lot of benefits, so that he has always been at peace in the intricately conflicting environment of interests.
However, he showed his brother's love and protection to Kamod everywhere. Maybe it's because their mothers had the same experience many years ago, or maybe they all had rough childhoods...
In short, only the two siblings, Carmod and Carret, made it difficult for Berry to let go of the brotherhood that was thicker than water.
......
In this dark extradimensional temple, Demos and Cali are gathering to discuss. Suddenly, the two of them were alert to an unfamiliar force pouring into the dimensional passage.
"They're here, so fast!"
"The priest of the sun god is also in Greece, and it is only a matter of time before he finds it!"
But the misfortune is not alone, a male attendant ran in trembling at this time, knelt down on one knee and saluted the two gods above.
"Newspaper... Reportedly, the Kareta messenger has woken up. But she... Ran away. β
Kali immediately glared at Demos, looking very angry, "At the critical moment, you are going to provoke the fire! I'll take a look outside, you can solve the matter of Carreta yourself!"
"Hey... Women are really troublesome. β
With a witty smile, Demos stood up from his seat and left the main hall with the male attendant.
Since the night she was with Demos and she had survived, Carette had not been able to sleep. After days of running and just ending a battle to the death, she couldn't resist the tired nerves in her body, and buried herself in the soft bed and fell asleep.
In the other dimension where there is no white night, she does not distinguish between normal schedules and rest times, but sleeps one sleep after another. In the fog, she sensed that Demos had come, and instead of being rude, she whispered something to some of the maids
Carette woke up at noon on the third day. Four maids surrounded her, carefully helped her wash and change her clothes, and served her a sumptuous meal. How could she possibly eat?
She knew very well in her heart that she must find a chance to return to the human world, the sooner the better, and if she continued to live like this, she would be forced by Demos one day.
While the maids were busy sorting through their belongings, Kareta ran away.
A group of black-clad guards rushed to intercept them, armed with weapons such as hammers, steel rods, or jab wrenches.
An unexpected spell attack paralyzed their bodies, causing them to fall to the ground and unable to move. Karete's power was more than enough to deal with these minions.
While fighting with the guards, she ran up the stairs to the first floor of the temple.
"What's the matter, it looks like I'm lost!"
Kareta screamed badly.
She didn't know much about the imposing temple building, and she couldn't find an exit to the outside world, so she had to hide until a stone wall appeared in front of her.
No way!
Kareta was dejected, she didn't want to be escorted back to that room. What's more, the attempted escape injured many attendants, how could Demos let her go!
Something was wrong with her. The ground beneath his feet is a rectangular piece of marble with a clearly visible vine pattern carved at the edges. Compared to the surrounding square floor tiles, it looks like a large door.
On each side of the boulder stood four guards, with a serious demeanor and a meticulous upright posture.
"Miss, please step aside. This is a forbidden place, and only the king and the goddess Kali can enter freely!"
When they saw Karete, they spoke respectfully, even if there was still no expression on their faces.
Forbidden...... What is it in there that needs to be guarded by the escort team like this?
Kareta was staring at the rectangular marble floor, suspicious, when a line appeared behind her.
At the forefront is the god of darkness. He stepped forward slowly, his steps steady and unfazed. The defender of the chamber immediately bowed down on one knee.
"You're very energetic, and you've just recovered and you're poking your fistula everywhere. It's a good dress to be ruined like this by you, it's a very expensive silk material. β
He spoke to Carette with pity, but there was no reproach in his words, but he looked extremely crying and laughing.
In order to facilitate running and fighting, Carette ripped off most of the front hem of her long skirt in a hurry, and threw off a pair of high-heeled shoes that were in the way. Looking down now, the appearance of bare legs and bare feet is indeed very funny.
No wonder the guards in the secret room had a smile on their faces. She was ashamed and ashamed, and stood up and didn't know what to do.
Demos rushed up in a few steps, lifted up the wide black robe and wrapped around her body, and quickly lowered his head, covering her lips with a mouth that had poured out vicious words, and imprinted a deep and fervent kiss.
Karete's mind went blank for a moment, and she didn't expect to be kissed by him in public. While he was still stunned, his body was lifted up by him and firmly carried on his shoulders.
"You... What are you doing!"
She clenched her fists and smacked him the back, and cried out, "Let go of me!
"Of course I know you can walk, and you're walking blindly. β
With a sneering sneer, Demos carried Carette along the way, accompanied by her chattering and swearing.
"Bastard, let me go, let me go! You're such a heinous bastardβ"
The black-clad guards of the chamber stood dumbfounded, unable to withdraw their gaze from the direction they had gone.
"Did you hear that? Miss she... What is the king called?" asked one.
The other shivered and had a hard time swallowing his saliva.
"It's better not to hear it. That chick... It seems to be very hot..."
