"I never expected Lao Niu to actually say it out loud. This is blatant attempt to turn them against their cause!"

"This is the legendary 'a heart of a tiger, a delicate touch,' someone who looks like a roughneck but can see a person's character so clearly."

Everyone nodded. Taurus not only had a unique perspective, but also had excellent eloquence, which allowed him to completely control Huihuo.

[The scene shifts to nighttime, where Aldebaran, having returned to the Sanctuary to report the situation, is conversing with Sisyphus.]

Suddenly, a bolt of purple lightning struck, and an incredibly dark microcosm surged forth at that moment.

To Sasha's astonishment, the barrier shattered, and Hades, clad in black robes, descended from the sky along with the fragments of the barrier!

Before Sasha could recover, Hades stretched out his left hand and clenched it into the void, unleashing a torrent of cosmic energy.

"boom--"】

The twelve palaces were completely destroyed, and the sacred domain was instantly engulfed in flames!

Just as the Gold Saints were about to step forward, Hades' hand flashed with purple light (430 volts), and an invisible wave of energy emanated from it, heading towards them.

"Our bodies... cough!" Dohko and Shion felt an immense pressure on their bodies, making them unable to move.

Even Aldebaran and Sisyphus, who had just reached the top of the tower, were unable to resist being pressed to the ground, and could only grit their teeth and struggle to hold on.

"It has to be said that Hades chose the right time. Athena has been maintaining the barrier of the Sanctuary day and night, and her body and mind have long reached their limit."

That being said, seeing Hades' performance, everyone understood the difference between gods and humans. The incredibly powerful Gold Saints couldn't even stand up in front of him.

"So this is what gods are like. No matter how strong the Gold Saints are, they are still just humans."

That immense, abyss-like microcosm was truly chilling; the oppressive feeling even gave them a thought…

Can humans really be a match for the gods?

Chaldea, the world of Type-Moon

At this moment, Fujimaru Ritsuka also had the same thought. Although she had seen many god-level spirit origins before, and had also seen Tiamat, the god of the Seventh Singularity, in a video!

However... the gods of that world are completely different, possessing a kind of power.

Fujimaru Ritsuka still feels lingering fear when she thinks about Hades, who could take lives simply by drawing.

Mashu asked timidly, "How could Pegasus, from the mythological era, possibly injure Hades's body against such an opponent?"

They felt like they were on completely different levels, like there was a huge chasm between them that couldn't be bridged by training alone.

Under immense pressure that even Aldebaran couldn't move, Sagittarius Sisyphus gritted his teeth and stood up.

A golden bow appeared in his hand, and golden arrows appeared behind him, though the movements were slow, almost trembling!

However, Sisyphus, trembling uncontrollably, still drew his bow and aimed an arrow at Hades.

"You foolish man to point an arrow at me, a god!" Hades glanced indifferently at Sisyphus and raised his hand again.

"Bang--"】

The ground beneath Sisyphus's feet instantly caved in, and ten times the pressure of before was applied to him.

"Ah—!" Sisyphus cried out in agony, blood streaming from his forehead, but he still did not lower his bow and arrows.

Hades, looking into Sisyphus's eyes, also remembered that Sisyphus was the man who had taken Athena away five years ago.

"call out--"】

The arrow hurtled towards Hades, but the next second, the golden arrow pierced through the king's palm and then shot out again at the speed of light!

It pierced directly into Sisyphus's chest; Hades's power caused the latter to lose consciousness and collapse to the ground.

"When it comes to willpower, the Saints are all monsters. Their will to bend their bows and arrows even when facing the gods for Athena is admirable."

"Even Aldebaran, known for his superhuman strength, was unable to move under the pressure, yet Sisyphus, a Sagittarius, was still able to stand up!"

What's even more surprising is that he was still able to launch an attack under those circumstances, considering that Hades had just intensified his attack on Sisyphus.

However, everyone still felt a little regretful, as such a powerful man had actually been defeated by his own arrow.

The Myth of Hades

"To actually invade the Sanctuary directly, isn't that a bit too disrespectful, Hades, the King of the Underworld!" Pope Sage frowned, it seemed he needed to make more preparations in the Sanctuary.

Sisyphus, standing to the side, gritted his teeth inwardly, feeling utterly unwilling. Was he really going to be eliminated like this? (Read thrilling novels at Feilu Novel Network!)

I was the one who took Athena away from Pegasus and Aaron, and now I've not only failed to protect her, I haven't even been able to help her...

So you're still blaming yourself for what happened before, Sisyphus! El Cid glanced at Sisyphus expressionlessly, and immediately understood.

……

"As expected of Lord Hades, the Gold Saints are as insignificant as ants in his presence."

Upon seeing this, the Specters began to cheer for Hades.

They all felt incredibly proud, as if they themselves had just defeated the Gold Saints without any chance of fighting back.

Seeing Sisyphus collapse to the ground, Sasha, unusually enraged, pointed her scepter at Hades!

"Ah, finally looking more like a battle goddess!" Hades chuckled, drawing his sword, the Sword of the Underworld, and a great battle was about to erupt.

At that moment, a dazzling blue light appeared between the two, and Pegasus emerged from the light, holding prayer beads and standing in front of Sasha.

The souls of the deceased Specters within the barrier surged towards the prayer beads, staining them black. Sasha finally breathed a sigh of relief, no longer needing to exert herself to maintain the barrier.

The three familiar faces reunited, seemingly transported back to their happy childhood days in an instant, but everything had changed.

The cruel fate of sibling rivalry has once again bound the three of them together.

[Aaron remained unmoved by Pegasus's persuasion, merely moving his arm slightly to freeze Pegasus in mid-air.]

The next second, Hades' sword pierced out without hesitation, aiming straight for Pegasus's heart.

In a flash, a dazzling light appeared from the ground, followed by the emergence of a peculiar rune. At that moment, Hades' power was greatly weakened.

"What?! My power has been weakened..." Hades, landing on the ground, then discovered that the ground was now covered with strips of paper bearing strange runes.

Hades looked around and found that the entire Temple of Athena was covered with Athena's amulets.

"I will no longer allow you to run rampant in the Sanctuary, Hades... you've been tricked!"

Just then, the Pope, who had experienced the last Holy War, slowly emerged from the darkness, carrying several Athena's amulets.

"A sacred cage formed by the Athena amulet, a cage of protective charms!"

"Indeed, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure... He's far too reliable; the Pope's position is well-deserved!"

"Hahaha, Hades has really gone too far this time, brazenly attacking the enemy's main base. Maybe he can take this opportunity to end the Holy War."

The old man is indeed an old man; you never know what a long-lived old fellow might pull out.

Moreover, when Aaron was weakened, seeing Aaron's somewhat flustered appearance, it was impossible to tell who was the villain for a moment. Winged Spirit Robe (5) and Jiu Jiu (8) are villains!

"Uh... when Hades and Athena were confronting each other just now, was the Pope secretly putting up spells?"

The thought of the Pope, with his serious face yet furtive posture, sticking his butt out and sticking out talismans... everyone thought, "No, if I keep thinking about it, the Pope's image will collapse."

Type-Moon World Fifth War World

"It's true what they say, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure!" Shirou Emiya couldn't help but echo the same sentiment. Reliable, just too reliable!

But these words silenced everyone present. As for why...

Look at Emiya, Archer Tohsaka, Illya and Medusa, all of them combined, and you still can't find a pair of parents. Why do you think they're so stunned?

The Myth of Hades

"As expected of the Pope! He's so thorough in his work." A glint of light flashed in Manigold's eyes. After all, he was his master, so it was normal for him to have a bit of personal bias in his words.

If all goes well, this might actually be an opportunity to end this holy war.

"Hades has really brought this upon himself. How dare he trespass into the Sanctuary? Next time, let me hunt him down!" Scorpio Cardia revealed a villainous face, his fingernails drawing a streak of red light in the air.

He'd been waiting for a battle that would make him burn his life and sacrifice everything! And wasn't there a perfect prey right in front of him?

As long as the Pope showed no sign of joy, he knew that the two twin gods had not shown themselves at all...

P.S.: After introducing the painting in the sky in the next chapter, we'll go straight to Little Ma.

Chapter 373 Aldebaran Dies Standing Up!

The Pope had already scattered talismans left by Athena 200 years ago across the square, creating a protective barrier. He simply hadn't expected Hades to attack so recklessly!

Pope Sage had no intention of wasting this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; he stepped forward, intending to seal Hades, the god of the underworld.

Aaron realized that the other person was a survivor of the previous Holy War, so he slapped him away, sending him flying into the wall behind him and leaving a deep crater.

Although Hades' power has been weakened, it is still not to be underestimated! The Pope, filled with dread, cried out for Athena.

[Then, their inner cosmos erupted simultaneously, enveloping the entire temple plaza. The next second! Like teleportation, everyone was instantly transported to a demonic tower.]

"The previous Holy War has been around for over two hundred years now, so the Pope is practically an antique."

"Moreover, it seems that the Pope and Athena were prepared in advance, and they teleported away along with the entire square."

Hades lived up to his name; even with his power greatly weakened, he was still far superior to them, able to send them flying with a mere flick of his wrist.

Ever since they learned that the Pope was over two hundred years old, people from other worlds have been seeing a living fossil, and their eyes have started to light up!

I never imagined that someone over two hundred years old would still be so healthy and strong. He's truly a veteran!
