Chapter 704: Chapter 126: The Queen of the Sea’s Younger Sister Ran Away with Her Brother-in-law_3 Chapter 704: Chapter 126: The Queen of the Sea’s Younger Sister Ran Away with Her Brother-in-law_3 At this moment, the celebration of survival after the calamity had already ended. Dozens of Dragon Tooth Soldiers and golems were willingly busy cleaning the deck and moving miscellaneous items.
“Ready? Then let’s set off.”
Luo En waved his hand, issuing the command.
The Argo Heroes looked solemn and immediately returned to their posts.
As for the absence of a figure beside Luo En, everyone tacitly refrained from asking.
As the Human Shepherd who had bound the Pantheon of Gods and as the Allied Commander who had won the giant war, this God of Wine had long earned the utter loyalty of all those who followed this banner through his flawless strategizing.
Therefore, whatever arrangements the Lord made, there was certainly a plan behind them.
The Argo Heroes collected their spirits and focused all their attention on the journey ahead.
Under the dense night sky, the Argo moved silently forward, its monstrous hull pushing through the waves at the edge of the Sea of Okeanos, piercing through the fog that rose vaguely from the sea surface, steering into the depths of the Chaos Sea Domain.
A voyage into the unknown had officially begun.
At this moment, in the Temple of Fate.
The dome rippled slightly with a strange rhythm. A cold figure, wrapped in layers of starlight, twitched her fingertips slightly. Her deep blue eyes slowly opened, sensing something as she gazed into the vast depths of the sea.
Meanwhile, in Olympus.
Zeus, seated upon his throne, also opened his eyes in sync, looking solemnly at the figure entering the Great Temple.
“Yes, Father God. Hearing your call, I rushed back from the sea immediately!”
Eris replied respectfully, not mentioning the “little diversions” she had engaged in on the sea’s surface.
Seeing Eris’s docile demeanor, a satisfied smile appeared on Zeus’s face.
“How has your Divine Power grown?”
“Thanks to your grace, I have reached the magnitude of a Chief God!”
Eris lifted her head to reply, a surge of Divine Energy bursting from her, her face alight with excitement and pride.
As the Goddess who governs strife and discord, she needed to draw Divinity and power from disasters.
And naturally, the quickest way was through war!
Not long ago, a massive giant war had broken out and escalated continuously.
Countless lives were lost, countless species fell into discord, and the entire Age of Greek Gods was nearly engulfed by the flames of war.
During this period, Eris had absorbed a great deal of Divine Blood Essence and Divine of Strife, her power growing rapidly, almost returning to the peak level she had during the Titan War.
Even now, should Hecate stand before her, she felt confident to cross swords with her for a hundred moves, and then… smoothly escape.
Her profiting tremendously from this Divine War was, of course, not without the deliberate cultivation from Father God Zeus.
Interfering with the workings of Heavenly Destiny, loosening the seals on the Old Gods in Hades, allowing Typhon and Kronos to gradually escape their bonds, continually escalating the giant war… all these factors inciting [Strife] were indeed her masterpieces.
And Father God Zeus had always been covertly covering up [Heavenly Destiny], safeguarding her.
Seemingly due to a shared origin, her Divine Power could indeed trigger the bans of the Queen of Hell.
Thus, with the help of Father God Zeus, she accomplished a series of feats, becoming the greatest winner of the entire gigantic war, thereby amassing the Divine Power and Divinity of a Chief God.
With heartfelt gratitude surging within, Eris stepped forward to pledge loyalty:
“Father God, just say the word if there’s ever anything you need me to do! I’m not one of those ingrates who betray you!”
“Not bad, you’ve grown up well.”
Zeus nodded in relief, stood up from his throne, and approached Eris, patting her shoulder tenderly like a caring father and whispered,
“Then, may I borrow something from you?”
Borrow something? Wha…
Eris’s mind had just formed a question mark when it shattered with a painful explosion. She stiffly lowered her head, staring blankly at the arm thrust abruptly into her chest, her expression shifting from brief confusion to incredible disbelief:
However, before she could speak, silvery thunderbolts surged from that arm, swiftly overwhelming her consciousness.
Watching Zeus suddenly attack in the hall and Eris’s body instantly disintegrate, Pandora’s pupils dilated, her body shivering as she involuntarily moved toward a shadowy area.
Zeus ignored Pandora’s slight movement, glanced at the crimson Divine Core in his hand, then raised his silvery eyes to gaze toward an ancient temple in a mountaintop, his eyes cold and determined:
“Chief God, this should be about enough…”
