Chapter 329 The Disappearance of Artemis

"...Where are our relics hidden by you..."

With a crackling sound that sounded like burning flames and electromagnetic effects, Sandora spoke condescendingly to the stunned middle-aged man. The words contained endless majesty and an almost cruel disregard for all life. At this moment, the one who was destroyed Queen Xiling, who had burned countless lives with war in countless worlds, finally came again.

If this girl didn't secretly make the "V" sign to me behind my back...

It is true that Shandora is a majestic queen, but her double-sided personality that is almost split personality really makes me dissatisfied.

"You are not human!!"

The middle-aged man is worthy of being one of the leaders of Olympus. Although he was sweating like rain under Sandora's mental oppression and the threat of the abyss flames, he quickly calmed down, and then suddenly realized something: "You Did I just say...your ruins!?"

"Useless nonsense."

Sandora snorted coldly, and then stabbed the opponent's shoulder with her sharp claws unceremoniously. Although it was only a small wound like piercing the skin, the latter's face instantly turned pale, and the entire facial features were distorted into a strange pattern.

The power of the abyss flames is not something that ordinary humans can withstand.

"Okay, Sandora." I took a few steps forward and gently patted the blonde girl's shoulder, stopping her from continuing to torture her. In the abyss form, Sandora's character was somewhat cold-blooded, even though she was older. She can maintain her sanity well part of the time, but the fragile human body may not be able to wait until the moment she regains her sanity.

I stood in front of the middle-aged man who had forcefully calmed down but was soaked with sweat all over his body, and smiled to make him relax: "Okay, I'm a human, so you can relax..."

What greeted him was the expression "Are you kidding me?"

Appearing together with Sandora, I was so easily excluded from the human category by my compatriots...

But it’s not surprising that the other party showed such an expression of distrust. Sandora’s image just now was clearly defined by him as a “devil”, and I can make the “devil” obedient so easily. Of course I am a human being. would elicit such a suspicious look.

Why can't this uncle think that I am a warlock with the demon talent?

"Tell me, your name - of course it's your code name in Olympus. I'm not interested in your real name."

I asked my question lightly. I was really curious about this bearded man who looked as if he had just lost his last pair of underpants at the mahjong table and was chased half the street by his wife with a rolling pin when he came home. What is the identity of the uncle? I have seen a few members of Olympus, some are arrogant, some are idiots, and some are so self-inflated that they are neurotic, but a melancholic uncle like this is really a rare breed.

Next to me, Shandora began to sharpen her claws... Ahem, the paragraph just now was just a mental reflection, please ignore it... Shandora's abyss claws are too familiar. .

The melancholic uncle smiled bitterly several times and said dejectedly: "If you are really interested in that ridiculous name... call me Zeus."

I was stunned: "Uh... you're not the supreme leader of Olympus, are you?"

"It seems that you do have a lot of information."

"No way?" I looked up and down at the melancholy old man in front of me in disbelief, my spirit of gossip burning, "Why did you do this before we took action? This is really good... ahem, What a regrettable ending.”

So the uncle with the shining title of Zeus in front of me became even more melancholy.

"I said it was because of the rebellion. I didn't expect that more than ten years of hard work would be torn to pieces like a joke. Even Poseidon and Hades, who originally thought they could at least escape unharmed, were also killed by you. Kill easily, but in the end I have to face the outcome of being betrayed, how could I forget? I should know best what human nature is like..."

I scratched my head in embarrassment, and then pointed at Shandora who was sharpening her claws next to me: "If you want to say rebellion, it was this girl who did it, so you don't have to be depressed. It really hurts me that you are depressed."

"Of course I know that those believers are controlled by external forces," Zeus rolled his eyes at me unceremoniously, "I was injured by another main god of Olympus."

I muttered: "Thank you for having the nerve to put the word "Lord God" on your lips. You are really self-hypnotized to a certain extent... So you guys are dog-eating-dog?"

Zeus was stunned for a moment, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that we would be defeated by such an enemy."

Me: "How do you say this!"

"After more than ten years of planning, I paid such a huge price, but what I got in exchange was the only quota." Zeus didn't care about my attitude at all, but fell into some kind of sentimentality, "Just before Poseidon and Hadi When Si was responsible for stopping you, we finally cracked the final secret of the Great Temple, but found that only one person could be qualified to enter the God Realm. My closest comrade-in-arms took action against me without even a second of hesitation. , It’s really ridiculous. I actually fantasize about creating a new era of gods to eliminate human sins, but I have forgotten the most fatal weakness of human beings-greedy villains. Even if they obtain the power of gods, they are still villains. No, They are more dangerous than villains..."

"I'll give you a suggestion." I leaned down and patted the uncle's shoulder, which happened to be on the wound that had just been burned by the flames of the abyss. It immediately made the latter tremble violently. "After you go out, be a good person and strive to be a good person." You must be an artist, at least a philosopher or something, that is much more reliable than being a god. Besides, I will confiscate your powers first, and maybe I can return them to you later depending on my mood."

A look of shock suddenly appeared on Zeus's face. In just one shot, all his abilities had been permanently blocked by me. But soon, he sighed with relief: "Maybe this It's a good ending... Can I know your identity? At least, I want to know who destroyed Olympus. Your power has far exceeded that of any human organization. It can even be said that you do not belong to humans. …”

"We just said it," I stood up, turned away, and finished my last sentence, "the ruins of the gods you are studying are our construction waste."

Zeus's expression immediately stiffened, and then calmed down in an instant, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

I led Shandora and the others forward. After walking for more than ten meters, I suddenly turned back and asked Zeus, who was wandering in the sky, "What about that? How do we go ahead?"

Zeus: "..."

Talking to people from Olympus is a bit troublesome. Although these guys are talking about things that we are already very familiar with, every time I have to translate them in my mind for a long time before I can understand what the other person is saying. Just like this time, it took me several minutes on the road to finally translate what Zeus said into understandable Chinese: Dare they finally found a way to activate the ancient brood, but it may be due to insufficient energy, the power of the brood crystal Only one person can "become a god", so at this juncture a dog-eat-dog incident broke out between their leaders, but I couldn't figure out what the other party meant when he said "entering the divine realm".

As for the melancholic version of Zeus, I decided to let him live. From the brief conversation, I almost guessed some of the truth. This is probably a poor guy who wants to be the savior under the beautiful delusion. His motivation is good. It's a pity that he doesn't have enough brains, but he is not a bad person in terms of nature. Now that the other party has become an ordinary person, I have no intention of killing him all. I'd better let him live to atone for his sins.

Following the route pointed by Zeus, we entered the depths of the base from a hidden emergency passage. Since the base is closely connected to the ruins of the Xiling Mother Nest below it, as we go deeper, we have actually entered. We have seen the interior of the ancient mother nest, but although deep inside the super-advanced Xiling building, this road is obviously completely different from the high-tech corridor we came all the way. It is not so much that it is located in a high-tech base. The emergency passage is more like a hidden corridor in an ancient temple. Whether it is the surrounding stone walls or the obsidian bricks carved with strange patterns under our feet, as well as the mysterious murals everywhere, there is a mixture everywhere here. It depicts various styles of religious worship and idealism. After seeing it, people can’t help but sigh. This is indeed the base camp of a cult organization. And on these strange-style murals, although many legendary monsters or demons are depicted. , but it only lacks the image of a god. Needless to say, this is also the embodiment of Olympus's "I am a god" thought.

When the passage was about to reach the end, Pandora suddenly stopped, then turned around and pointed to a mural next to her and reported to me: "High-energy reaction."

"Don't……"

"boom!"

I am completely speechless at the way Pandora opens the door... This girl is not afraid of landslides at all!

"The attack output is accurately calculated," Pandora retracted the hand cannon and continued to speak in a mechanized voice, "the energy spread is zero."

Okay, I'll just pretend that Pandora knows the importance.

A huge stone hall was revealed behind the wall that was blown open by Pandora. Under the attack of a certain Loli that could scare away mummies, there was no point in sneaking in secretly - well, from the beginning we Without any intention of being secretive, we just walked into this dark hall that smelled like the "evil base camp" in a big way.

"Judging from the coordinates, this should be located at the computer room of the Mother's Nest," Sandora said to herself next to me. "The core of Olympus can only be here."

After blasting open the secret door, Viska and Pandora had already switched to combat mode. The two little girls were wearing identical silver-white battle robes, walking in front of us like a person and her shadow. The alloy battle The rhythmic click of boots on the ground echoed in the empty stone hall.

This dark hall is called the "Parliament Hall of the Gods" in Zeus's mouth. Although it has such a glorious title, it is not sacred at all. There are only vague red religious reliefs on the walls and carvings on the walls. There are weird words on the large stone bricks. If you say this is a testing ground for summoning demons, I would be more convinced.

While I was curiously studying the twisted hieroglyphic symbols on the ground, Viska suddenly called from the front: "Two people were found dead!"

Shandora and I rushed over immediately, and sure enough we found two male corpses in black robes lying at Huesca's feet. One was a thin old black man with strange golden symbols carved on his face. One is a slightly fat European man. From the mask fragments scattered around them, it can be seen that these two people should also be the leaders of Olympus.

According to the information provided by Medusa, there are six supreme leaders in Olympus, and so far we have confirmed five of them. Except for those who were inexplicable at the beginning but who were probably preparing to show off, but were rejected by Pandora. Beware of Poseidon who was killed by a cannon. He was arrogant and self-hypnotized to the point of being a bit neurotic, but ended up being killed by Viska's pick-up girl... ahem, Fantasy Killer... ahem, in short, he was killed by the ability to neutralize supernatural powers. In addition to Hades, who was suppressed to death and was shot in the head by a heavy psionic sniper, and the melancholic and sentimental uncle version of Zeus that he just met, there are two other people who are currently lying here, dragon suit A and dragon suit B, exclude them Afterwards, based on the information provided by Zeus, we can already confirm who the final winner is: Artemis.

This was not beyond my expectation. Although this was the first time I heard the name "Artemis", when Zeus confessed to us, this person had already been included in my high-risk list.

This guy with the title of Moon God can be said to be the most mysterious person in the entire Olympus organization. Even Zeus doesn’t know where he comes from. The only thing known so far is that the other person’s gender is female. As for this woman Her age, appearance, abilities, and origins are all unknown mysteries, and according to Zeus, this woman was not a member of Olympus when it was first established. She first appeared about two years ago. At that time, Olympus was just an ordinary organization dedicated to studying ancient Xiling ruins and trying to enhance the power of superpowers. Although it also aimed to obtain more superhuman power, Olympus at that time had not yet He was so whimsical that he wanted to become a god. It was not until the arrival of the mysterious woman that Olympus underwent earth-shaking changes.

To be honest, at the beginning, I thought Zeus was telling lies. Would an organization like Olympus allow a suspicious person with an unknown origin or even an unknown appearance to become the leader of the organization?

But in the end, the many contradictions in Zeus's description made me dispel my doubts.

Because even he himself could not recall exactly what he had experienced in the two years after Artemis arrived. Although he felt that his memory itself had no errors, as soon as details were involved, those memory fragments would change. It was so blurry, and it gradually disappeared from my mind in a way that would never arouse people's alarm. It made people think, "Oh, it's normal that I can't remember that thing, right?" This is definitely wrong. Thoughts, even when confessing these things to us, Zeus's face always maintained a matter-of-fact expression.

Needless to say, this is some kind of spiritual ability at work. From this point of view, the entire Olympus is probably regarded as just a spear user. The one who really wants to obtain the power of the Xiling and become a god should be Artemis. Difference.

Not far from the two Olympus leaders who fell to the ground dead, we found a silver six-pointed star pattern carved on the ground. The sunken lines seemed to have some kind of energy-sensing substance poured into them, and they were pulsing continuously at the moment. A white halo, dots of silver-white light dots wander on the main lines of the hexagram according to a certain pattern. I don’t know if it has any special meaning, but in the eleven blank areas inside the hexagram , using golden paint to draw a constellation-like pattern. According to my observation, it should be... Anyway, you don't understand...

Except for the glowing six-pointed star array, there was nothing noteworthy in the entire hall. After killing the last two companions, Artemis obviously did not stay here, but according to Zeus's explanation, this There shouldn't be any other entrance or exit to the place, right? Where did she go?

Could this be the legendary secret room murder case... Well, it doesn't seem to be involved.

"Perhaps there is another exit through this plate that looks like a ghost painting?"

Shandora frowned, raised her chin and pointed at the glowing six-pointed star array on the ground. This mysterious pattern that carries many fantasy legends, human dreams, magical mysteries, and has the same status as the Eastern Tai Chi Bagua in the Western fantasy system. In our proud In the eyes of Queen Xiling, it turned out to be just a plate...

Should I say that Sandora is too obsessed with things like plates and chopsticks?

Sivis, who was observing the hall through shared perception, helped me with the analysis: "The pattern itself does not have any spatial energy fluctuations, and the lines on the surface do not have the structure to connect into energy circuits, except for a three-dimensional imaging system placed underneath. Outside of the shaft, no secret passage has been found within the effective range of the radar. Sorry, sir, we cannot analyze the possibility of this pattern becoming a transmission port."

"My lord brother..."

Just when I was thinking about whether Artemis would have ascended to shatter the void or simply failed in the tribulation and been split into high-voltage powder by high-voltage electricity, Hueska suddenly made a sound, and she gently pulled her Holding the hem of my clothes, he pointed at the silver hexagram on the ground and said, "Can Sivis search these constellations from the database?"
