Chapter 40: Ten Illusion Archmage (1)
Keto, the great demon of the sea tribe, symbolizes the danger of the sea, and Forkus, which symbolizes the wrath of the sea, has many sea monsters, such as the famous three sisters of Gorgon, the hundred dragons Ladon, etc., and has the title of the mother of sea monsters.
Excellence doesn't know this, but it knows another story, and that is the death of Keto.
Legend has it that the Ethiopian king Kefus had a daughter named Andromida, and this little girl was born with the best in the world and was unusually beautiful, but unfortunately her beauty not only did not give her any benefit, but also brought her disaster.
Most of the beauties have a mother, and this little girl is no exception, and her mother doesn't know what nerves she has, and she even boasts that her daughter is more beautiful than the sea fairies, the daughters of Nereus, the god of the sea.
Nereus, a good old man, laughed when he heard this, but his daughter, Amphitrite, the queen of the sea, did not do it, and mortals dared to compare beauty with the gods, and they were really impatient, so they sent Keto to Ethiopia to eat people, and asked the king to sacrifice his beautiful daughter on earth.
The ending of this kind of story usually requires a hero to stand up to punish the monster and rescue the beauty, and this time it is no exception, this time it is the great hero Perseus.
This buddy had just killed Medusa, one of the Gorworkers, and rushed back, and at this time, he would let go of this hero's opportunity to save the United States, and Medusa was Keto's daughter, so the enemy was very red when they met, and they did it crackling.
Although Keto is a sea clan demon with strong mana, it depends on who he compares with, compared with mortals, and it is not enough to compare with Perseus, because Perseus is the illegitimate son of Zeus, and has been cultivating with Charon for many years, and at this time there is also the protection of Athena, Keto is of course not an opponent, and he was killed on the spot not long after.
Keto was appointed by the queen of the sea, and the purpose was to maintain the dignity of the sea gods, Perseus was considered to have provoked the anger of the people, Zeus finally had no choice but to raise Keto to the sky and turn into a cetus constellation, which was regarded as an explanation to the sea gods.
Excellence looked at Daphina and whispered, "Daphina, Keto was killed by humans, don't you hate us?"
"Does it make sense to hate?" Daphina glanced at Excellence, made a splash and continued, "Besides, you humans operate on land, we killer whales operate in the sea, and the well water does not interfere with the river water, so why should I have trouble with myself." ”
"Then since you are called killer whales, you really haven't eaten anyone in the sea?" "Excellence still doesn't believe that these killer whales are huge and can hunt all kinds of creatures, so they just let humans go?
"I don't know about the rest, but we've never eaten anyone. Dafana stared at her two big eyes, and said a little disdainfully: "Does it make sense for me to lie to you about this kind of thing?"
"Uh, I just think it's a little incredible!" Excellence smiled awkwardly, and said in his heart that he was despised by a whale, and I guess it was the first one in thousands of years.
"You're heading west, going to the island of Aiyu?" said Daphina, glancing at him.
"Yes, I want to see what is so strange about Circe. "Excellence is not hidden.
"Curiosity kills cats. Daphine thought for a moment, as if to dissuade her. "Circe isn't that easy to deal with, otherwise Skula wouldn't have been toyed with by her. ”
"Thank you, but I really want to see her this time. "It's always nice to be cared for.
The boat traveled for a day and a night, and finally arrived on the island of Aiyu in the afternoon of the next day.
The small island can feel extraordinary from a long distance, only to see the sky above the island thousands of ruiqi, the glow of ten thousand ways, the twilight auspicious smoke, green and green, a group of Xianfu cave sky.
Zhuo Zhuo saw it in his heart: how is this place so similar to the Immortal Mansion Cave Land in the East, could it be that this Circe still understands the countdown of the East? Thinking about it, there was a burst of excitement in my heart, if this is the case, maybe I can go back to the East to find those great immortals for guidance.
So he abandoned the ship and went ashore, put on the veil of a hermit, and quietly dived to the island.
I was even more surprised when I went in, I saw that the thousands of peaks on the island were open to rocks, ten thousand people were on the screen, strange flowers with different grasses, bamboo was cultivated with pines, and when I saw the phoenix on the mountain spreading its wings, I frequently heard the fairy deer in the forest chirping lightly, and there was a natural and peaceful atmosphere everywhere, which was no different from the so-called cave heaven and blessed land that I saw on TV in my previous life.
"There must be people who understand Oriental Taoism here, otherwise it would not have created such a natural and harmonious atmosphere. ”
Excellence saw that his heart was surging, and he was intoxicated, and he said that this Circe is really not simple, and he actually built the island in the general of an immortal mansion, and he was really careless before, and I may be far from being an opponent of others.
It's just that he is stubborn, and at this time he got the information from the East, even if he knew that he was not someone's opponent, he felt that it was a pity not to break through here, so he reined in his deeds and continued to move forward.
The island is beautiful, but it is not big, and soon it will come to the central part of the palace. These palaces are made of marble, with blue and white walls and pale blue glazed tiles, with a dignified and elegant style, but with a vibrant natural beauty.
Excellence was fascinated by it, and suddenly heard footsteps in the distance, so he quickly wanted to hide to the side, and after taking two steps, he smiled to himself, only to remember that he was wearing a hermit veil, and the other party couldn't see it at all.
At this time, the footsteps are getting closer and closer, and the sound of speech is also clear to the ears.
"Hey, Charna, is the Queen still angry?"
"The anger should be gone, she was resting on the throne when I came out!"
"Is the palace door still closed?"
"Forget it, it's not closed, no one dares to come to us anyway. If the queen calls us, we won't hear it!"
"Giggles, yes, the queen's temper is not very good!"
......
Excellence is overjoyed, if the palace door is not closed, the queen is still resting, isn't it a good opportunity for herself to sneak in?
Taking a few deep breaths to calm down, Zhuo Zhuo began to slowly sneak towards the main hall in front of him, and went over to see that the palace door was indeed not closed.
The palace door is delicate and elegant, it seems to be made of some kind of metal, after entering is a cloister, there is a section of ascending steps through the cloister, there are about a hundred steps, after going up is a golden hall, the door of the palace is ajar, the incense in the hall is swirling, the innermost is a white marble throne, there is a person sitting on the seat, is half-lying and leaning on the wide throne to squint and rest.
Excellence tightened his pace and slowly dived forward, reaching about three meters in front of the throne, and took a closer look.
I saw that she was wearing a purple and gold sun crown, covered with a red gold-sprinkled silk robe, with fair skin, exquisite face, squinting and resting, and her eyebrows seemed to contain a trace of leisurely sorrow.
In terms of beauty, she is different from Athena and Artemis, but this person exudes a natural charm that causes people to feel unnatural pity.
Excellence instantly had a desire, and quickly bit the tip of his tongue to stabilize his mind, and said in his heart that this woman is really powerful, and the business is important, how should I catch her?
"There you go. Excellence thought about taking a silk cord from his waist and slowly approaching to tie her up.
"Little brother, you are so ruthless, don't you pity the jade at all?" a resentful voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
Excellence was taken aback, and when he looked up, he saw a person standing in the distance, exactly the same as the person on the throne, and then at the throne, the person on it was slowly dissipating, and only an afterimage remained.
"How can you see me?" Excellence simply didn't hide it, and directly took off the hermit veil.
"Giggles, little brother, it's too easy to see you, because the Hermit Veil was given to Skula by me!" Circe stroked his chest and chuckled, his heart heating up at the sight of the rippling breasts.
"So you conspired to trick me?" Excellence suddenly found himself in a trap.
"No, no, no!" Circe shook his jade finger lightly, and said in a variety of ways: "This is just a way for me to punish that slut, from full of hope to complete despair, is there anything more cruel than this method?"
"Oh, someone has been here before?" said Excellence, secretly wielding the shield of light in case she suddenly unleashed a cold arrow.
"Not much, there were only five of you before, do you want to know their ending?" Circe pointed to the wall above the throne and smiled happily: "Look, they are all hanging on it, and they want you to accompany them!"
Excellence had already seen that there were five skins hanging on the throne, and when he heard that it was a human skin, he shivered, his stomach was sour, and he shouted that the demon girl looked at the gun, and attacked it with a gun.
"Ah~ya~!The little brother really doesn't understand the amorous feelings, my sister really cares for you!" The figure of Circe disappeared in an instant, and then appeared on the other side of the main hall.
Outstanding attacked several times in a row, but he didn't even touch her shadow, and his mind couldn't help but move, no, I fell for her illusion.
Although he didn't know exactly what was going on, he also knew that illusion was definitely a mental attack method, and Circe had some kind of mental thought, or some hidden actions that he didn't pay attention to, so that he fell into a state of trance and produced all kinds of hallucinations in his consciousness.
Maybe I just got on the island and already had a hallucination, I remembered all kinds of things I saw and heard on the island, and slowly affirmed that those fairy mansion breath, phoenix wings, etc., must be hallucinations, those are all oriental things, there is no possibility in the western world.
"Sister's illusion is really powerful, she actually lured me over step by step since I came to the island, and you deliberately arranged those two little girls, right?"
"Giggles, the little brother is really smart, no wonder he dares to go to the island alone. Circe smiled and waved his hand, and the hallucinations in front of him disappeared in an instant, and he found himself standing in an underground cavern, surrounded by poisonous snakes, spitting letters, and looking at him with cold eyes.
At this time, I heard a whistle, and then the sound of snorting, snorting, and sneering kept sounding, and it turned out that those poisonous snakes flew in the air, swam on the ground, and kept attacking Excellence.
