In order to become a Heroic Spirit, I had no choice but to cause trouble in history.

Half of the Sphinx's body was covered in rubble, and it was struggling amidst the ruins of trees and rocks.

The explosion of Ocean Current Arrow still had a considerable impact on it; the fur on its half-buried hindquarters had what looked like tearing wounds, which had stained a patch of stone red.

The moment Miya saw the Sphinx, she lowered her head.

This is Kimia's favorite tactic—charging!

Jimia's skin was tougher than that of a wild beast, and not only was he large, but his flesh density was also greater than that of Ocean and Ruslan, meaning—

Kimia's impact was quite frighteningly destructive.

"Ah, is this what we're getting right off the bat...?" Luslan watched the accelerating Miya, a bead of cold sweat trickling down his temple.

These past few days he's witnessed quite a few powerful magical beasts being smashed by Jimia, their bones broken, their brains splattered.

The Sphinx sensed the approach of Mia and Luslan and roared angrily in their direction.

They didn't take the rushing Miya seriously at all.

It even planned to reach out its claws and slap Jimia.

Then--

Boom boom boom boom—!!!

Chapter 510 Lemoni's Crisis

Oshin sat on a rock to rest: "So you see, Uncle Liliana was absolutely right. As long as you have a plan and a clear goal, no matter how strong the enemy is, it doesn't matter."

"Hmm..." Luslan looked a little flustered.

Kimia's face was shrouded in shadow, her expression serious.

"...What happened between the two of you?" Oshin sensed that something was off.

"It's just a small matter that's enough for me to kill this bastard." Miya's smile was very bright.

"I'm sorry, Miya, would you believe me if I said I didn't mean it?" Luslan said tremblingly, his face covered in cold sweat.

"Of course I believe you, how could I not?" Kimia walked up to Ruslan with a kind smile, her strong arm gripping Ruslan's neck.

"Hey, you bastard, let go—I'm suffocating—I'm suffocating!" Luslan struggled on Jimia's arm.

Oshin walked up to the Sphinx.

The Sphinx was completely dead; its enormous body was beginning to cool.

On the forehead of that huge, ugly face, there was a very obvious indentation, and a large amount of blood was seeping from Jimia's mouth, nose, and ears.

However, although the wound was severe, it was not the direct cause of death.

A short sword was embedded next to the hollow of his forehead.

"So this is what happened." Ou Shen pursed his lips and looked at the two people still arguing in the distance.

To put it simply, the ADC and top laner brought an enemy to a very low health, and just as they were about to finish them off, the jungler, who was just passing by, did nothing but steal the kill with a single auto-attack.

Jimia: My blood pressure is rising.

“It’s not a loss to die.” Oshin said with a smile as he looked at Ruslan.

"Ah—you heartless bastard who would leave someone to die!" Luslan stretched out his hand towards Oshen's direction.

Ou Shen sat down on the spot to continue resting: "Remember to dispose of the body properly, and don't get blood on yourself."

"Ah ...

The bastard who stole the human (beast) head lay convulsing to one side, while Oshin and Jimia stared at the enormous Sphinx corpse.

"Hurry up and take it to the beach. We'll transport it back by water." Ou Shen looked at the enormous, unbelievable body and stretched. "I've never eaten meat from a magical beast of this level before."

"Didn't you eat that Scylla?" Miya's eyes looked a little strange.

“That Scylla, that Scylla isn’t that strong.” Oshen pulled Luslan’s short sword off the Sphinx’s head, grabbed one of the Sphinx’s claws, and pulled it outward with force. “That Scylla is at most at the middle level in the entire Scylla population, while this Sphinx is probably at the upper level in the Sphinx population.”

“It’s impossible to compare which is stronger. The Scylla can’t come ashore, and the Sphinx can’t go into the water. But based on my personal feeling, this Sphinx is indeed stronger. The most important thing is—” Ocean’s mouth was practically watering, “This Sphinx has been imbued with spiritual energy. Its meat and taste must be absolutely amazing.”

Luslan and Jimia also drooled after thinking about it.

"Huh? You're alive now." Oshin looked at Ruslan standing beside him.

"I didn't mean to," Luslan said with a sigh, feeling distressed. "Back then, you ran headfirst into this thing and didn't kill it, you were even slapped away. I just poked it, who knew it would kill it."

“However, if I had just punched the dying Sphinx one more time, the Sphinx would have been gone,” Kiyomiya said with a blank face.

"..."

The air fell silent.

"Hey!" Oshin pulled the Sphinx out from under the pile of rocks. "Let's go, hurry home, and then we'll discuss how to kill that Hydra too. It's the only monster on the island now, and it's lonely. Let's find a way to send it down to keep the Sphinx company."

......

Lemoni stood atop a mountain, breathing in the fresh air from above.

"It feels really good."

Lemoni looked down from the mountaintop and felt refreshed.

He loved looking at the scenery, but this was the first time he had ever stood on such a high place and looked down at everything.

“This is exactly what I wanted…” A smile involuntarily crept onto Lemoni’s face.

He started climbing last night and only reached the summit now.

This is the highest peak on Athena Island, offering a panoramic view of the entire island.

Just as Lemoni was admiring the beautiful view from the mountaintop with shining eyes, above the clouds...

A giant lion followed behind Athena.

The lion crouched tremblingly behind Athena.

It's the toy that Athena specially went to the Divine Court yesterday to get for Lemoni from Hera.

Athena glanced at Nemia and smiled: "You are the most suitable tool to measure this kid's current strength."

As Athena spoke, she used her powers.

Nimia felt his chest fill with fighting spirit, and his rationality gradually faded away.

“Go ahead, wait for Lemoni on his usual route, and let him know that life... can be full of surprises.” Athena’s smile was radiant, full of love for Lemoni.

Lemoni, who was standing on the mountaintop, suddenly felt a little cold.

"...I guess I'm not wearing enough clothes." Lemoni looked down at his upper body, which was basically naked.

After taking a few more glances at the surrounding scenery, imprinting this beautiful sight in his mind, Luslan pulled out the golden spear stuck to the side, turned around and walked down the mountain.

I've basically explored the entire Athena Island by myself, where should I go next...?

Lemoni's gaze involuntarily focused on the distant, boundless sea.

I remember Athena once said that there was a continent called Atlantis.

I heard that the people there don't live a tribal lifestyle, but rather have established a town-like lifestyle.

“A town… let’s go take a look.” As he walked down the hill, a smile appeared on Lemoni’s lips.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, Lemoni gripped his golden spear tightly and became alert.

There's something around...

What... something powerful.

I could clearly sense that I was being watched.

Within the earth, there exist things that should not exist.

As the body was formed, a giant lion, thirty meters long, emerged from the ground.

“The giant lion… Nemia.” A solemn look flashed in Lemoni’s eyes.

He learned a great deal of knowledge in the Temple of Athena.

This includes distinguishing the different types of magical beasts.

There is only one kind of lion-like magical beast that is this large.

That is the giant lion, Nemia, which can move freely through the mud and has incredibly tough defenses.

Chapter 511 Lemoni's Trial, Dangerous Atlantis

Lemoni watched Nemia cautiously.

"Didn't they say this thing doesn't exist on the ground?"

Before he could think any further, Nemia lunged at him angrily. Lemoni grabbed the middle of the spear and held it horizontally in front of him to block Nemia's attack.

"Uh--"

However, Nemia was much stronger than Lemoni had imagined, and Lemoni, unable to parry in time, was sent flying backward by Nemia's blow.

"Oh dear, this is really pathetic." Athena sat on a cloud, a casual smile on her face, one hand propping up her chin, legs crossed, looking down at Lemoni. "If you can't even defeat an opponent of this caliber, how are you going to..."

"To deal with the primitive magical beasts on the continent of Atlantis."

boom!

"Pfft-"

Ruslan slammed into the rock wall, a sharp pain shooting through his back.

"Damn, this thing... is a bit difficult to deal with." Lemoni wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth, propped himself up with his golden spear, and stood up from the ground.

Nemia let out a terrifying growl from his throat, and Lemoni felt his eardrums vibrate along with it.

Suddenly, Nemia leaped up.

"Tch." Lemoni rolled away to dodge Nemia's attack, then knelt on one knee, thrusting out his golden spear straight for Nemia's thigh.
