"So you're a god?" Selena cried out in surprise. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Not a god, just a demigod. I corrected.

Yes, after I recounted my experience with the Island of the Demigods, each of them had a surprised expression, as if they were listening to an incredible fantasy story. Of course, Lin An still seemed relatively calm, as if he had known about this for a long time. However, I don't think they should be surprised by the Sirens and the demigods since they had experienced Alastair's attack and seen Selena's magic. It's just a matter of coating a cake with a thick layer of cream with a different flavor.

We're on our way to Selena's house, which of course is not far from the school. In fact, they have been living in Selena's house since the Alastair attack. Her mom thinks we're all in danger right now and that we're all safe under her protection. Mrs. Acker had a premonition early on that I would be back in the dormitory today, so she asked them to come to me. I can't help but admire this powerful witch, whose mother, according to Selena, is in her 200s.

I carried a heavy shield with Medusa's eyes on my back, and covered it with a black cloth to prevent anyone from seeing it and getting harmed. The shield appears to be made of gold, which is dangerous to be exposed to. But our lineup already looks very strange. Wang Yimin always walked behind me, staring at the shield. Fortunately, it was covered with a black cloth.

"Yi Min, don't look at the shield, be careful of turning into stone. I replied in a weird tone. In this heavy atmosphere, I think I should adjust the atmosphere.

"Medusa was actually a beauty," Lin An began his knowledge popularization class. Legend has it that she was a lady-in-waiting in the temple of Athena, and was targeted by Poseidon, the god of the sea, because of her beauty. As Athena's handmaiden, she must remain chaste. Rather than obey, she was raped by Poseidon in the temple, but instead of sympathizing with her, the goddess Athena cursed her and turned her into a gorgon. In order to prevent her beauty from seducing others again, any creature that sees her will turn to stone. She went into hiding. Such a wonderful story was narrated by Lin An in a bland voice, until he tripped over a stone on the ground.

Then she was beheaded by Perseus. Selena complements the story with a sad voice. At this time, she should be the saddest, after all, her boyfriend's life and death are uncertain. At this point, I'm not sure if I'm right to lighten the mood by playing music, and no one is worried about the consequences of missing so many days of school.

What appeared in front of me were two black iron doors, on which were reliefs of two angels, two angels spread their wings and faced each other with fists in their hands. There were many vines entwined in the gap above the door. Selena took out a golden toad's ring and twisted it at the lock. Entering the gate, there was a strange garden, although I have no common knowledge of plants, but I guarantee that I have never seen these flowers of mixed colors and strange shapes. There was a fresh aroma throughout the garden, but I felt drowsy.

As we walked on the cobblestone road, a three-story white villa with a red roof stood in front of us. A woman in her forties, with her black curls wrapped in leaves like weeds, was waiting for us at the door, with a very kind face. It's really the same as the witch I imagined. Since it's the first time I've come to someone else's house, I want to be a gentleman.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Acker, and I'm.."

"Mrs. Mills. Mills), this is Li Han. Selena introduced. I realized I might have been mistaken.

"Hello, I'm the butler, and Mrs. Acre is waiting for you in the house. Mrs. Mills said to me with a smile as she helped me take off my shield and staff. To keep her safe, I stopped her behavior. It's better for me to hold this dangerous weapon myself.

I walked down the cleaned, smooth wooden staircase and looked at the black-and-white photographs on the walls around me, each of which showed a woman with a blank face, a bit like a posthumous portrait, very frightening. Selena's home is actually similar to a normal family, although I have never lived in a villa, but it is not the kind of house of horrors I imagined it to be full of smoke and incense burners, dimly lit, and strange soft music.

We entered the first room on the left, surrounded by candles and a blonde woman who looked to be in her 30s sitting next to a round table. She has the same high nose bridge as Selena and is wearing a formal suit. Those blue eyes were staring at me so tightly that I couldn't help but shudder.

"Hello, Li Han. I'm MaryArc, Selena's mother, come and sit down. "To be honest, I can't believe that this 200-year-old witch has such a young appearance, but I can tell that there is a vicissitudes of experience hidden under the exterior. There seemed to be a magic in her, maybe it really was, that gave me the urge to refuse her. The dignity of the whole body, the elegance of the competition, Lina is superior, I can't help but think of the goddess Hera.

A few of us sat down around a round table with a sun in the center and a long crescent moon around it. In the center of the sun there are two tail-to-tail toads that appear to be inlaid with gold. I really can't imagine how rich Selena's family is, but since there are gods in this world, can't witches still be able to do alchemy?

"Please accept this golden toad ring, it will protect you when you are most in danger. "I took the ring and looked at it closely, trying not to think that it might be a ring of pure gold.

"Wait.. I see the figure of Zeus in you. "I was just about to say thank you, when I found that Mrs. Acke had once again grasped me with her gaze, or that her gaze had never moved.

"Yes, Mom. We just learned that Li Han's father was Zeus, the god of the gods, and he was a demigod. He brought back the Serpent Staff and the shield with Medusa's eyes from the Island of the Demigods, which we can use to find Alastair and rescue Xu Yi. Selena's voice grew faster and faster, her hands already unconsciously gripping her mother's arm.

I noticed that Mrs. Acker's gaze was no longer so stiff, "Can you predict the future?" I wanted to take the opportunity to ask if she could help me predict when I would be able to meet my father.

"No, I can only rely on tarot cards for intuitive inferences. Mrs. Acker smiled stiffly, and despite her youthful appearance, I noticed the wrinkles on the side of her mouth when she laughed. "I know you want me to help you predict the time to meet your father now, don't worry. The great Zeus will take care of everything, but I can help you communicate with the gods spiritually. "Oh my God, this old witch still has the ability to read minds, but I think it's more likely that she's good at reading people's expressions. After all, I am a person who is easily betrayed by expressions, and it should be difficult to be able to remain so calm forever like Lin An.

"But it takes God's blood," I was shocked. "Any magic related to the gods is disrespectful, and therefore requires the blood of the gods to do it. Last time I tried to banish Alastair, I used up the last remaining blood of the gods. If you are to communicate, you will need to retrieve Alastair's blood. He's a god. ”

It was refreshing to know that I might have the opportunity to communicate with my father, but then the thought of the need to defeat Alastair left me with little confidence. Although I have two weapons from the Island of the Demigods, and I confidently promise Selena to save Xu Yi, I only said it to boost everyone's confidence.

"For this snake staff, I would love to know how it came to be. Can you share with me your experience on the Island of the Demigods?"

"Well, will you help us defeat Alastair?" I was now more concerned about whether the mighty witch would help us. After all, it is impractical to have four 19-year-old students defeat a Titan God who has survived for an unknown number of years.

"I'm afraid I can't," said Mrs. Mills, who brought us tea, which had a faint bitter taste. "There's something important in this house that I need to look after, and at the same time it keeps me alive, and if I get too far out of it, I'm in danger with it. At that time, I became a drag. And with my daughter by her side," she said, looking at Selena and smiling stiffly. "I'm sure Selena can do it, otherwise I wouldn't have felt comfortable letting her lead the wizarding order. ”

From the last time I met Alastair, I couldn't believe that Selena was up to the task, but I could tell it was a test for Selena. Regarding the matter of leading the wizarding group, I looked at Lin An and Wang Yimin, they were silent, and I felt that I should not continue to ask at this time. In fact, they hadn't spoken since they entered the room.

"But I can now show you if your trip went well. I don't know when, a deck of cards appeared in Mrs. Acker's hand.

"Tarot cards. Selena explained to me.

"Curtains!" Mrs. Acker closed her eyes with a crisp order, and Mrs. Mills, the butler, immediately drew the curtains with small steps.

"Fire!" Lady Acker opened her eyes instantly, and her blue eyes were now covered in red, scattering light outward.

The candles around the room suddenly lit at the same time, and in the light of the fire, I saw the domineering in Mrs. Acker's face. Her eyes shone with fire, and she seemed to be able to swallow the whole world into her flames. She slapped the round table hard, and the pattern of the sun, moon, and two toads glowed golden, intertwined with the firelight.

Mrs. Acker then turned her back to the 22 tarot cards that were placed around the round table, chanting a large number of incantations in her mouth. Her gaze was firmly fixed on the center of the table, and then some tarot cards began to vibrate, and then slowly moved to the middle of the table in two shapes, "ten" and "one". She stretched out her hands and made a forward motion, and the tarot cards in the center all stood up on their own. Mrs. Acker had a relaxed smile on her face.

Suddenly, these standing tarot cards begin to spin around themselves, faster and faster. I didn't know, but I guessed from Mrs. Acker's anxious face that this was not a normal situation. A tarot card flies out of it and falls to the ground. And then everything stopped.

The room suddenly went dark, and yes, everything suddenly stopped. As if the latch was pulled in an instant, the flame was extinguished and the golden light was gone. The room was darkened again.

Mrs. Mills opened the curtains, and I saw the surprise and bewilderment on the faces of the others, and I guess my own face was the same, except for Mrs. Acker with her chin in her hands and squinting.

"Tarot warning. The tarot card can stop divination and give such a warning that this matter is very urgent, Sel, show me that card. ”
