Caret was forcibly pulled by Cali to the severed pillar and came face to face with the crystal ball that held the Athena gemstone.

At the other end of the hall, Jose let out a few more cries of pain, and she was immediately worried when she heard it.

"Turn it on—"

Kali had been waiting impatiently, and pointed at the crystal ball with the axe of "python gold", and shouted at Karete:

"Quick! I don't want that man to continue to suffer, so hurry up and open the seal of the gem—"

Carette looked at Jose, who was being bullied by the zombies, and her eyes burst into tears. She glared at Cali instead, resentful but helpless:

"Cali, you're too vicious. Jose has spent time with you no matter how you have spent his days and nights, how can you treat him like this?"

There is really nothing to do about it.

Carette did not want to deliberately reveal the special relationship between Cali and Jose, but because of the urgency of the situation in front of her, she had to think of other methods, the purpose was only to hope that Cali would remember the old love, even if it was just a little bit of true affection, and show mercy to Jose's subordinates.

After hearing this, the other party's face suddenly turned more gloomy and colder, as if the river was frozen, and his expression tensed for a moment.

"What do you say!? Do you dare to say again—"

Kali roared at Karete, and her brilliant purple eyes flashed with a radiant coolness, causing Karete's gaze to clash with them as soon as she was knocked back, and her whole body couldn't help but shiver.

Kali stared at Kareta and yelled:

"You think I've had a relationship with him, so I should let him go! You're so wrong, Carlete! I'll never forget the man I'm going to be cornered with! I can't forget the shame I felt when I lost my body to a man I didn't love. How did you get Demos's love, why did I lie down under a filthy human body when I was in love with him! I feel sick just thinking about that—"

The more Cali spoke, the more angry he became, and for a moment his emotions fluctuated greatly. She suddenly turned around and shouted to the zombies who were dragging Jose:

"Torture him well, let him scream, I want to hear the harshest and most painful screams—ahaha—"

She then turned her back to the sky and laughed hysterically.

"Don't ...... Kali!"

Carreta was shocked, and regretted that she should have taken the wrong idea in her anxiety. Looking at Cali's performance at this time, it is clear that he has a strong hatred for the past.

Carette finally understands that perhaps Cali's torture of José with zombies is not only a means to force her to submit, but also to compensate and take revenge for the fact that she has lost her body.

By this time, the zombies had all gathered at the top of the high pillar, and they were constantly destroying Jose, making his body look more like a twisted flower made of soft flour in their hard tugging, twisted to a complete loss of normal shape.

In his ears, his shouts changed from high-pitched to low, and now faint and silent.

"Jose, how are you?...... You should give me a look!"

Breaking out in a cold sweat, Kareta struggled to straighten up in his direction, only to run into Kali's cold golden axe.

A poisonous smile stacked on Cali's beautiful face. After laughing, her expression turned to extreme ferocity, and she pushed Kareta to the broken pillar with a split palm, and shouted madly:

"Don't bother! You don't want him alive yet!Open it—open the seal—now—"

Kareta lay on the broken pillar, crying at the crystal ball in front of her, quite helpless.

If you really obey the goddess of blood, you will lose completely. Once the seal is opened, not to mention what Olympus wants, Kali, the fierce rival in front of him, must first get the Athena Gem.

Kareta couldn't help but worry that if it was as she thought, it would become more difficult for Kali to get the power of the god of war when the time came, and maybe she would still kill herself and Jose in the end.

Carette wants to save Jose, and she wants to save everything. Because as early as in her previous life, the ancient gods, she had sworn to him who was dying, and if she met again in the next life, even if she sacrificed everything she had, she would protect him for the rest of his life!

In her mind, the two images have been entangled with each other, lingering in her memory. One is a previous life, in the dense sacred forest, she and Hector snuggled together under towering trees. One is this life, José brings a warm smile to her lips with a hot soup made by himself......

Carreta was disturbed by them, and cried even more.

Sacrifice all...... Give it all –

She meditated in her heart.

Lifting her tear-stained face to look at the high pillar in front of her, her blurred vision could no longer see Jose's tortured body, only a crowd of zombies huddled together...... It's like, in his previous life, the soldiers with their weapons held high were gathered together......

Kareta felt dizzy and fell next to the crystal ball. At the same time, Kali, the goddess of blood, on her other side, gently raised the corners of her lips and smiled silently.

"Hurry up...... Karete, open the seal. It's easy for you to save that man, all it takes is your two hands......"

In Kali's seductive voice, Kareta finally regained her weak upper body and approached the crystal ball on the broken pillar.

With each foot she neared, the sapphires in the crystal ball would get closer to her. The holy light of the gem's whole body enveloped her sad and tearful little face, making its true color more and more translucent as a thin white paper.

Carette leaned her face over the crystal ball, lowered her tear-stained eyelashes to look at it for a moment, and then looked through it again to the sapphire within.

Cali's high, curved eyebrows and a particularly wild smile knew that Carete had no choice at this point. Even if she has the blood of Demos and inherits his dark power, even if she has a righteous heart, but ...... She has always been a woman, and she is also a very delicate little woman!

In fact, just as Cali thought, Carette really didn't have any other tricks to resolve the crisis at this time.

She sat in front of the broken pillar, her eyes glazed over, her mind more confused than ever.

“... Why me...... The key to breaking the seal...... Why am I ......?"

She murmured to the crystal ball, her figure trembling slightly in the sapphire glow.

In vain, two tears fell down and landed on the smooth arched surface of the crystal ball. They didn't shatter into crystal petals instantly, but they passed through the hard crystal shell to the core of the sphere, ran through the top of the sapphire, and intersected with it and swirled and swirled.

As if in response, the brilliance of the gem surged at this moment, and it was shaped like a straight blade rushing out of the ball to the dome of the temple, and with a "whoosh" through the dome, it was inserted into the dark space of the entire dimension.

There was silence in the east side hall, and the entire space was shrouded in the brilliance of the precious stones. The zombies gathered at the top of the pillar were especially terrified of this sacred light, and at the moment when the beam attacked, it was like a poisonous insect touching the insecticide, and they all fell to the ground below the stone pillar, and they lost their life in a blink of an eye.

Cali was completely captivated by the strange beam, and his expression was greedy and stunned.

In Karete's eyes, the crystal ball with a solid appearance had become weak at this time, as if a pool of sparse water wrapped a perfectly shaped sapphire.

As if she had been helped, Karete had a flash of inspiration in her mind, and she realized that if she reached into the crystal ball, she could take out the sapphire in the center.

But do you have to take it out......

The heart is tormented, just because the sense of responsibility and emotion are in a fierce confrontation.

Kareta, I will wait to see you again in the next life. No matter when, no matter where I was born, Hector's soul will guide me to Greece again, and wait for you somewhere there—

Haha, repay us with practical actions! When you are well, hurry up and go home with me to meet your parents, repay me with your own promise, and give birth to a mixed-race elf to repay my parents-

I promise you, I will return to the world. No matter when, no matter where I go, I will not give up, and I will not be discouraged to find you. I will never let you be hurt again, and I will never be separated from you again-

For a moment, these voices echoed in Carette's ears repeatedly, like a symphony of uneven tones, forcing her spiritual world to the brink of collapse.

"Ahh

Karette suddenly hissed in pain, and at the same moment, she reached out her right hand and plunged directly into the wriggling mass of clear liquid.

The process was so easy that it didn't take much effort for Kareta to put her right hand into the center of the crystal ball. Then, with a bend of her fingers, she grasped the sapphire, the jewel that contained the power of the goddess of war.

With another withdrawal, Carreta removed the gem from the crystal ball. In the second after her hand completely detached from the crystal ball, the sharp light that broke through the other dimension disappeared, and the crystal ball faded back into a hard stone form.

Kareta looked at the sapphire lying on her palm in a daze, and saw that it was covered in a layer of divine but unscorching light. At this moment, she unexpectedly raised her right hand, in a vain attempt to smash the thing in her hand to pieces.

"Death slut! give it to me—"

Cali was ecstatic to see that Carette had actually taken out the Athena Gem, and then she suddenly raised her right hand.

Cali's face changed in fright, and he rushed over and snatched the treasure from her right palm, and slapped Kareta in the face with the other hand.

"Papapa" ......

After a few crisp sounds, Karete's miserable little pointed face immediately flew round, and several purple handprints were stacked in one place, so that there was no clear palm mark at all.

Carette was pushed down by Lacalli, her face full of pain, and she could no longer argue with Kali.

She lay on the ground and cried loudly, feeling that she had done a heinous wrongdoing.

Hades once said that opening the seal of the Athena gem is like opening a Pandora's box, and taking out the gem is like releasing one hundred and eight calamities in the box. In order to prevent this evil thing from happening, he had to use the most extreme means to get rid of the key that could break the seal - her!

However, not long after she miraculously came back to life, she opened the seal with her own hands and gave the gem to the enemy.

Kareta wept bitterly for her weakness and repented for her sins. She felt like the woman chosen by bad luck as Aquaman and the Goddess of Blood had prophesied, Pandora who opened the demon box of sin!

"Let Jose go...... Please...... Stop torturing him...... Woohoo......"

Kareta fell to her knees, hiding her face and crying as she sobbed and said to Kali.

All mistakes, all injustices, are only because of the constant concern and the attachment in my heart that cannot be abandoned.

Cali didn't care about anything else now, just holding the sapphire in his hand, and laughing wildly with a "hum haha" on his lips.

“...... I've got the Athena Gem! I've finally got the Athena Gem......! Ha ha...... What other gods can't do is what I, Kali, can do...... Got it...... I got it...... Hahaha-"

Cali's nervous chatter continued, and he admired the gem repeatedly for a while before he gradually regained his senses.

The top priority is to quickly integrate the powerful divine power source in the gem into his body, so that his strength will become stronger...... However, what should I do to channel the power of the gem into one with my own divine power source?

The wind howled, and it entered the East Side Hall from the extradimensional world outside the terrace, instantly interrupting Cali's thoughts.

The aura that had broken into the temple was now a long time gone for her, and she hurriedly held the gem in her left hand and clutched it tightly, for fear that it would be taken away by someone else. On her right hand is the murderous axe "Python Gold".

"He's coming......"

Cali muttered to himself in the cold wind that swept in front of him, his expression mixed with sadness and hatred.

Kareta sensed his coming, too, and scrambled herself to her feet, calling out to the dark shadow that appeared in the transparent air:

"Demos..."

Dressed proudly in black clothes and black pants, with half-length slightly curly black hair, and holding the majestic holy sword "Destruction", he walked in front of Cali and Karet. The still handsome facial features seem to be frozen at the moment, and there is not much expression to be seen.

"Demos, you're still here!"

Cali tilted his head and said to him arrogantly.

"yes, I'm coming. I have come to seek answers to the loss of love, to draw an end to the continuation of hatred. ”

He said gloomily, glancing only at the glowing object in Cali's left hand, and then turned to Karette's side.
