Chapter 77: Encounter
Thousands of years have passed since Hyperion was sealed in the sun and Helios took his father's place in the sun.
The situation in the starry sky stabilized, and many gods divided the side. In this vast and empty star field, the situation is not as turbulent as on the earth.
However, unlike other gods who rule the starry sky, there is a goddess who has never had a sense of presence, but she is idle.
The moon goddess Selene, the eldest daughter of Hyperion and the younger sister of Helios, was originally the master of many star fields in the white path of the lunar orbit, but now she has nothing to do.
Because Thea, the mother goddess who originally lived on the sun with her father, moved to the moon, the star gods of the White Dao Domains naturally obeyed the orders of this Titan. As for Selene, it has been nearly 10,000 years since she was born, but she has not even stepped into the weak divine power.
She didn't need to worry about the movement of the moon, after all, this celestial body was far inferior to the sun now, and even if the priesthood was not compatible, Thea could easily drive it. So Selene was free and often walked between the sky and the sea.
She didn't dare to go to the earth, after all, the terrible god-king lived there.
Over the years, she had also hoped to find a powerful enough god to rely on, but if she thought about it, such a god probably wouldn't have taken a fancy to a moon goddess who wanted nothing. So Selene simply let go of his mood and enjoyed the different scenery of different places.
Today is like this, the morning light shines on the sea, and the golden light shines. Selene looked up and saw that it was his brother driving a solar chariot through the sky, bringing light and hope to all things.
Sometimes she couldn't help but wonder if the concept of the moon had not been taken away by the master of the spirit world, would she have to build a moon chariot under the order of the god king, just like her brother, and then perform her duties diligently every night.
Maybe that's not bad now. ’
In a happy mood, Selene made an appointment with a friend today, and she didn't want to keep the other party waiting for a long time.
"Excuse me, this beautiful goddess, have you heard of the goddess of the ocean, the goddess of wisdom, Metis?"
"Ah~"
The sudden sound startled the moon goddess. She followed the prestige, and not far away, a strange god with blonde hair and martial hair was standing.
Perhaps he was so engrossed that Selene didn't even notice his approach. However, after being awakened by the other party's voice, the moon goddess observed the uninvited guest.
Judging from the appearance alone, even among the gods, the appearance of the gods in front of them is outstanding. But the other party's divine power aura is very weak, and it is no different from himself.
And more importantly, the fiery gaze of the other party looking at him made Selene feel a little scared.
"I know that His Highness Metis, as the daughter of the god of the ocean and the goddess of wisdom of the sea, naturally stays with the other goddesses."
"Just to the west, fly three more sunrises and sunsets, and when you see an island with abundant vegetation, that's where she is. She lives there with her sister, Eurynom of the Waterweed Pastures, and you can find it yourself. If nothing else, I'm leaving. ”
With a slight frown, Selene didn't want to stay any longer. The other party is just like himself, although he is good-looking, he has no corresponding strength. But unlike himself, this god doesn't look like the type to keep to himself.
As for whether the other party is a newly born god, it is even more unlikely. Except for the god-king, there has been no sign of the birth of a new god in the last thousand years.
"Well, thank you for the answer, strange goddess, my name is Zeus, I wonder if I can get your name?"
Although he was a little disappointed by the alienation of the goddess in front of him, the current Zeus is not the one who sat on the throne later. Without the power to do what he wanted, he not only did not entangle, but asked politely.
"My name is Selene, and I am not a god of the sea. You just don't. Wait, what's your name? ”
Suddenly reacting, the moon goddess was a little incredulous.
The scope of the vision at the time of the god's birth depends on the strength of the god's own priesthood, and as the world grows larger, many new gods are born unknown, but this does not include Zeus.
The youngest son of the god-king, the existence of a silver serpent all over the sky at birth, it is impossible for Selene not to remember this name.
A little panicked, the moon goddess subconsciously wanted to escape. She didn't know why this god son, who was supposed to be swallowed by the god king, appeared here so well, but there was definitely a secret in it that she didn't know.
And the past years have taught her a truth, if you don't have enough strength, don't participate in these.
With a movement of divine power, Selene turned into a seagull and flew quickly in the direction of the starry sky. But her sudden move obviously aroused Zeus's suspicion.
"Wait, ma'am, you seem to be aware of my presence?"
While asking questions, Zeus also turned into an eagle with thunder. He flapped his wings and flew high, and soon caught up with the moon goddess.
"I don't know, I don't want to know, please leave. I am the daughter of Thea, the Mother of Light, and now I am returning to the stars. ”
Selene flatly refused, and she tried to scare the other party with the name of Thea. But what she didn't know was that this made Zeus determined to stop her.
The great name of the Mother of Light, whom he had heard from Amani the goat. The existence of the powerful titan god and the god-king who treats each other with courtesy, if the goddess in front of him is allowed to leave, what will happen next will not be under the control of Zeus.
So he sped up. Selene flew with all his might, but he still couldn't escape Zeus's pursuit.
Even the original [Moon] priesthood in mythology is not as good as Zeus's [Thunder], let alone now. Even if the divine power of Selene is similar to Zeus, the strength is far inferior.
She was trapped on the surface of the sea by a giant eagle transformed by Zeus, and whenever she tried to fly high, she would be forced back by the thunder that struck. Fortunately, Zeus didn't intend to hurt her, he just wanted to know what he wanted from the mouth of the goddess in front of him.
"I have no intention of hurting you, ma'am, but I can't let you go either. If possible, I'd like to hear you tell me something about me, and judging by your previous reaction, my background seems unusual? ”
Despite his dominance, Zeus remained cautious. He surveyed his surroundings as he spoke.
“.”
Selene remained silent about this.
She remembered her father, who was trapped in the sun, who was so powerful, but who was locked there by the God-King and couldn't move. And the god in front of him is an existence that the god king will never tolerate.
Anyway, he won't die, and even if he catches him, it's better than being permanently locked in the moon like his father. So Selene fell silent and confronted Zeus in the sky.
As the minutes ticked by, Zeus exhausted all his words, but the moon goddess still did not respond. Eventually, he got a little impatient.
"Words don't seem to move you, ma'am. Then I'll have to knock you out first and let you leave with me. ”
Although he didn't know why the other party was so stubborn, Zeus didn't plan to wait any longer. In the open sea, no one knew if their fight would be noticed by the passing gods.
The power of the thunder was fully mobilized by Zeus, and although he was not strong in his newborn years, he was still obscured by dark clouds and lightning within a radius of thousands of miles.
Zeus reincarnated into human form, and the silver and purple electric light was held in his hands. The clouds sank, just as the sky here and there had collapsed. He looked at the white gull that Selene had transformed into on the surface of the sea and issued an ultimatum.
"Ma'am, as long as you're willing to tell the truth, I'm still grateful to you."
But the results still disappointed him. Selene wrapped her wings around the top of her head, enveloping herself with her meager divine power. So Zeus stretched out his hand, and the silver serpent in the sky also crushed down.
The thunderbolt fell, striking at the lonely white gull on the sea. For this blow, Zeus had already used all his strength.
However, right in front of him, a spherical barrier glowing with seven-colored light appeared out of thin air in an instant, blocking the thunder that was falling one after another.
The next moment, with a burst of spatial fluctuations, a red figure slowly emerged.
