Demigod Chapter 4 The Snake Staff

I looked at the red-hot fish on the wooden plate and kept beating the drum to see if I wanted to eat it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's a fish I've never seen before, it has the whiskers of a catfish, a flowering tail similar to a goldfish, and the strangest thing is that it has only one scale on its body. So it's so soft and smooth to the touch, I'm not sure how this fish survives in the ocean. Peter and Okanos were very happy to eat, and they first gently tore the scales off the surface of the fish, and then took a spoon and scooped the tender white meat into their mouths little by little. Sometimes I get the feeling that Okanos will eat his white beard in his mouth.

"This is a fish created by the teacher himself, and it is specially used to eat, and it is very delicious. They reproduce asexually. Peter seemed to see my hesitation.

"Of course, when I still ruled the seas. Okanos smiled at me and showed me his oil-soaked mouth. He got up and went behind him to grab a bit of toilet paper and wipe his mouth. "But I've quit a long time ago, and now I'm getting used to it. He touched his upright belly. He looks very kind, not like a former god.

"I wonder why my father didn't come to see me?" I still chose not to touch the fish, after all, I don't like the taste of fish either, I haven't liked it since I was a child.

Okanos sat down at the round wooden table again, his arm propped up on the table, his other hand rubbing his leg constantly. "You know, as a presiding god, their power comes from the belief of human beings, and only when human beings believe in gods can gods have power. This is the price of being the most powerful of the twelve main gods, and it is also why in ancient times the gods would let humans build various temples to worship the gods. But in modern society, there are not many human beings who believe in God anymore. As a result, the twelve main gods lost their power, and they had no way to exist in this world as entities, but only in the minds of believers in the form of consciousness. But they still have some control over what they are in charge of, so, son of Zeus, your father just helped you. He explained to me as he cleaned up the fish debris.

"Why don't they think of a way to get humans to believe in them again?" Hearing my question, Peter stopped eating the fish as well. It seems that he also wants to know why. I wondered why he hadn't asked after all these years.

"I have to say that without God's rule, the world created by humans themselves is better, isn't it?"

"So my father's generation is no longer disembodied, and there are fewer and fewer demigods, and only me and Ivy are left?" asked Peter, as if he had just arrived on the island.

Okanos shrugged. "Ivy is the daughter of Hermes, and she's on another peninsula, the island of the demigods, made up of three peninsulas, one of which each of us manages. Peter explained to me.

"Why don't you three live together, isn't it more convenient?"

"Because the three peninsulas have been guarding an object of Zeus, the seed of a flower. We must be very careful that nothing can go wrong on any of the peninsulas. Okanos suddenly became serious, his eyes narrowed into two lines. Then a look on his face that was difficult to catch passed through me, and I had an indescribable sense of horror.

Then he suddenly grabbed my shoulders with both hands and shook desperately. I was terrified, and his mood changes made me feel like I was dealing with a mentally ill person. "You are going to take the seed of this flower, it is your father's, your father's!"

"Teacher!" called Peter. Okanos let me go, and gradually regained his kind expression.

"I'm sorry, it's a bit out of control. He wiped the sweat from his head, "For so many years, I've been hoping that a son of Zeus would come here and take this seed away. I don't know what it was used for, but since it was left by Zeus, it must be something very important. I'm relieved to leave it to you. His tone became very gentle again.

"Teacher, it may be for this reason that the sirens attacked Li Han, so is it appropriate to take the seeds now?"

"Yes," Okanos patted his head. "I can't take it yet. You have to keep the son of Zeus safe first. ”

I feel like my identity is getting more and more important, and although this Okanos is a little crazy, he seems to be a good person. It's just that I want to go back to my friend so much that I don't have the heart to think about the seed of that flower. And since there are only three people on this island, or gods, I can't stay here for long, lest I cause them more trouble. After all, I'm here to find a way back, right?

"I want to go back first, Teacher, you have a way to send me back!" I found myself unconsciously calling Mr. Okanos, but I should be called the same as the other demigods.

"yes, you're going back. Yes, there are shortcuts. Teacher Okanos turned and walked into the back room.

After a while, he pulled out a wooden pole that resembled the wizard's staff from the anime. This wooden pole has about 1. Five meters long, two snakes made of metal (I guess silver) hovered from the bottom to the top, with a pair of silver wings set with a blue gem in the middle.

"This is Hermes' staff of the serpent, and you can use it to get anywhere you want. Well, son of Zeus, hold it and think about where you are going. "Teacher Okanos handed it to me.

I held the cool wooden cane and closed my eyes trying to keep the dormitory scene in my mind, thinking that it might not be useful to think about the movie theater. I felt a stream of heat rush from the bottom of the rod to the top, and when I opened my eyes, the top gem began to glow blue.

Teacher Okanos took the snake staff and thrust it into the wood. As if melted, the two metal snakes on the staff gradually crawled down and arranged in two small circles on the ground.

"Son of Zeus, please stand in these two circles and hold the teleportation stone in both hands. "I did as he instructed, and I think the teleportation stone he was talking about was the gem. I gripped the teleportation stone tightly with both hands, and the temperature of the stone was high. A gust of wind began to roll around me, and I felt like I was about to melt.

Suddenly, Okanos hung something heavy on my shoulder, and a chill went down my spine.

"Son of Zeus, the center of this shield is inlaid with Medusa's eyes, which you can use to defeat Alastair. "I heard Okanos shouting, and I had to keep my ears up because of the high winds.

"But don't look directly into the center of the shield with your eyes, or you'll turn to stone. Also, it's a pleasure to be friends with you, Li Han. I must come again!" Peter also shouted at me, to be honest, I really don't know why Peter chose this kind of life, although the life here seems to be leisurely, but growing up in such an isolated place, losing the right to grow up with his friends will definitely not help him grow up in his heart. If these dangers are gone, I must come back and persuade him to come to the modern world to live.

I felt a strong pressure coming against me all around me, making it hard for me to breathe, as if it was about to tear me apart. All kinds of distorted pictures appeared in front of me, including buildings, mountains and rivers, and forests. But I can't see these images clearly. The sound of the wind echoed in my ears, constantly irritating my eardrum.

Suddenly, as if someone had pressed the pause button at the height of the film, all sounds and images disappeared. I felt intense irritation in my eyes and immediately closed my eyes for protection. My stomach churned, like I was on a boat for the first time, and the feeling of vomiting kept irritating my throat.

A man hugged me tightly, and I barely opened my eyes, and in a blur I recognized that it was Selena.

"Well, where have you been, you have worried us all to death. We wanted to call the police, but we were afraid to alarm Alastair. Are you hurt?" she now clasped her hands on my face, with the expression of a mother who had just found her lost child, and her mouth spewed out these words like a chain cannon.

"Hanhan, you really scared us, you have been missing for two days. Lin An asked as he took the shield from me. From his bland concern, I really didn't hear that he was frightened. However, I was pleasantly surprised to be back with my friends.

"Don't look at the center of the shield. I yelled, startling everyone around me. It scared the hell out of me, too. "In the center are Medusa's eyes, which cannot be seen. I whispered again.

I looked around and saw that there seemed to be one person missing. There was no Xu Yi, so I hurriedly asked, "Where is Xu Yi?"

"He... Captured by that monster. Wang Yimin sat on the bed and whispered. I noticed that everyone lowered their heads, and I was sure that the monster Wang Yimin was talking about was Alastair.

"My mom is late," Selena began to whimper. "My mom was late, Alastair broke in, and he stepped up to protect me and pounced on Alastair. By this time, Selena had already cried into tears, and she was slumped on the ground with her hands over her eyes.

"Then my mother came and recited the expulsion spell." Selena couldn't go on anymore, and everyone else was immersed in grief. Thinking of Peter's words, I feel that it is unlikely that Xu Yi will survive. But I still went to put my arms around Selena and give her some comfort.

"Come on, let's go get him out. I said in a firm voice.
