Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

Already severely injured and exhausted, Athena could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground.

"Lady Athena—"

Deferros was furious.

However, at that moment, a cold voice reached his ears.

"At a time like this, you still have the mood to care about others?"

"not good!"

Upon recognizing it as the voice of the god of fear, Defteros felt a chill run down his spine.

He tried to create some distance, but it was too late.

Demos, the god of fear, has broken free from his mental bondage.

"The Spear of Fear"

A dark red spear pierced through Defteros in an instant, pinning him directly to the void.

"Wow--"

Deferrost coughed up blood and became completely listless.

"Lady Athena, Senior Defteros!"

Wu Xin and the others, who were fighting the God of Terror, also noticed the situation and were immediately terrified.

This sudden change happened so fast that they were completely unprepared.

Chapter 534 The Craftsman God Appears Suddenly

"Worried about them?"

"You guys should take care of yourselves first!"

Taking advantage of the moment when the group was distracted, Phoebus, the god of terror, launched a fierce attack.

"Dark Terror"

A black light wave spread out, shattering the void and leaving wounds that would never heal in the endless dimensions.

Because of Athena's accident, Wuxin and the others were too shocked to react to the fierce attack of the God of Terror. They could only barely raise their arms to block.

boom!

The terrifying light wave struck them, instantly shattering their sacred robes and blasting all three of them away.

In just a moment, the previously stalemate was completely reversed.

At this moment, the master behind the flaming iron hammer slowly emerged from the void, and an incredibly high temperature enveloped the entire battlefield.

Regulus and the others felt as if they were seeing a furnace that had been taken away.

"How could it be him??"

Upon recognizing the person, Wu Xin, who had just gotten up and hadn't even had a chance to check her injuries, immediately fell silent.

"You know him?" Regulus looked over in surprise.

“That’s Hephaestus, the god of craftsmanship!” Wuxin replied, both surprised and angry.

“Yes, that’s him!” Odysseus wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the giant engulfed in flames with equal disbelief.

He also recognized the god of forging.

“But shouldn’t the God of Crafts be our ally?” Regulus asked, bewildered.

It should be noted that their demon-suppressing prayer beads were designed by this master craftsman himself, and Wuxin had also received his help when he entered the underworld last time.

After catching his breath, Wuxin disregarded the terrifying god Phobos before him and accelerated toward the battlefield, saying, "The God of Crafts has never been our ally!"

"He is merely a neutral party and will not participate in any conflict!"

"But now that he has appeared here and launched a sneak attack on Lady Athena, there can only be one reason!"

"What reason?" Regulus followed up with his question.

Odysseus followed behind, shaking his head and sighing, "The appearance of both the god of terror and the god of fear here clearly indicates that they are backed by Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty!"

"And that goddess just happened to be the wife of this craftsman god!"

"Then, the reason why this master craftsman is here is very clear!"

“That’s right, there’s no other possibility besides that woman!” Wu Xin nodded.

As far as he knew, Hephaestus, the god of blacksmiths, was a complete pacifist and rarely directly participated in the conflicts between the gods.

The only reason a deity could willingly intervene in a troublesome situation is because it was instructed by the one the God of Crafts was infatuated with.

Especially considering that the twin gods under his command also appeared here, it's definitely not a coincidence.

"You guessed right!"

"All of this is the Mother Goddess's command!"

"However, you know too late!" The god of terror, Phoebus, flashed and intercepted the three of them again.

"spread!"

Wu Xin shouted and changed direction, preparing to bypass this terrifying god.

With Athena in imminent danger, he no longer had the will to fight her.

Regulus and his companion understood each other perfectly and split up, taking different routes around the area.

Phobos, the god of terror, raised an eyebrow but was helpless.

Even gods don't have three heads and six arms, so they couldn't possibly stop three people at the same time.

Helpless, he could only choose to chase after Regulus, who was closest to him.

At least, we can stop one if we can.

Without the obstruction of the God of Terror, Wuxin finally arrived at the second battlefield.

"Accumulated Corpse Qi - Time-Stopping of Spirit Sealing"

He chose to attack Demos, the god of fear, who was nearby, in order to rescue Defteros, who was pinned down by a crimson spear.

As for Odysseus, he tacitly chose Hephaestus, the god of craftsmanship, who was also closer to him.

In an instant, a pale white beam of light was released from Wuxin's fingertip, directly striking Demos, the god of fear, freezing the god's soul and halting his thoughts. Wuxin took this opportunity to accelerate and rush forward.

However, after only a brief pause, Demos regained full consciousness.

"Damn you, how dare you deceive the gods!"

"The Spear of Fear"

The God of Fear conjured a dark red spear in his hand and fiercely thrust it toward Wuxin, who was already closing in.

"Accumulated Corpse Qi - Soul Burial Break"

In order to rescue Defteros, Wuxin did not back down. Instead, he concentrated the power of his cosmos into his right fist and resolutely went to meet him.

A pale light emanated from his fist, rapidly corroding it the instant it made contact with the spear.

Against Hades at his peak, Wuxin's move had limited effect, but against this god of fear, it was a different story.

This god of fear is far weaker than Hades and has not entered the ranks of chief gods. He is comparable to the gods of death and sleep.

Especially after being severely injured by Pegasus's fatal blow, the power of this god of fear has greatly decreased.

In the blink of an eye, the dark red spear was eroded by Wu Xin's pale light and completely turned pale.

"What??"

Demos, the god of fear, was astonished to realize that the spear in his hand was out of control.

He tried to let go, but it was too late.

The pale spear exploded instantly, then mixed with Wu Xin's cosmic power, transforming into a pale tornado that swept back.

Moreover, this strike also contained the brute force of the Golden Body of Enlightenment.

The three forces combined to catch the God of Fear off guard, sending him flying.

Before he could check the results of the battle, Wu Xin quickly pulled the dark red spear off Defteros's body and used his ice power to freeze and stop the bleeding.

"Defteros, are you alright?" he asked hurriedly.

"I...I'm fine..."

Defteros, panting heavily, looked towards the spot where the God of Fear had landed and said with difficulty, "Quick...quick...he stole...the Demon-Suppressing Prayer Beads..."

Before Wuxin arrived, the God of Fear had taken the Demon-Suppressing Prayer Beads from his body.

Although we don't know what the other party is planning, it's definitely the right thing to do to get the prayer beads back.

"Demon-suppressing prayer beads?"

Wu Xin was somewhat confused. He looked at the God of Fear who had just gotten up and saw that he was holding a string of black prayer beads in his hand.

At this moment, Odysseus also rushed to the god of crafts and tried to launch an attack in an attempt to rescue Athena.

"Giant Serpent Strangulation"

A giant python, hundreds of meters long, appeared out of thin air and, under his control, pounced directly at Hephaestus.

However, the God of Crafts didn't make a move at all. He merely glanced at it, and a beam of blazing red light shot out from his eyes, burning the hundred-meter-long giant python to ashes.

"roll!"

Then, it let out a low roar, and the materialized sound waves made Odysseus dizzy and forced him to stop, taking several steps back.

Chapter 535 The Heart of Fear

After dismissing Ophiuchus, Hephaestus didn't give her another glance. He scooped up the unconscious Athena from the ground and hoisted her onto his shoulder.

Seeing this, Phobos, the terrifying god who had intercepted Leo not far away, immediately signaled, "Now that we have everything in our hands!"

"Then let's not waste any more time!"
