The Warrior of Love

Then, the magicians who were sent here surprisingly but naturally did not notice Jiang Liu's existence.

Even when the river flowed right under their noses, they turned a blind eye.

There was no way. The gap in strength and realm was too big. As long as Jiang Liu had this idea, they would not be able to find Jiang Liu even if they opened their eyes as wide as 24 hours a day.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to deal with the aftermath, Liliana proposed to stay here for a while to assist in the aftermath work. As a "Great Knight" and a genius prodigy, Liliana's status is naturally not low, not to mention that she has a grandfather who is a big boss, so this kind of small matter is naturally allowed.

In order to take care of her daily life, her hometown even sent her personal maid, Karen, over.

——That’s why the previous scene happened.

"Alas, now I can't explain this to Karen at all."

Liliana followed her memory and walked towards the direction where Jiang Liu should be. While strolling on the beach, she was worrying about how to prove her "innocence" to her friends.

Then, she met mystery unexpectedly.

"deer?"

Liliana looked at the "deer" that suddenly appeared in front of her in a daze, and for a moment she even suspected that she was dreaming.

It was an extremely beautiful deer, with an elegant and noble posture that even had a sacred aura, and a pair of dark eyes emitted a faint silver glow in the hazy moonlight.

It has a pair of extremely gorgeous huge antlers, and the overflowing brilliance proves that it is made of gold. It is extremely eye-catching in the dark night with only moonlight and reflections from the sea and lake...

Chapter 508: What a coincidence, your name is also Hercules?

Under the cold and hazy moonlight, a doe with golden horns and bronze hooves, a muscular and elegant figure, was strolling along the sparkling coast. Its hooves stepped on the soft sand, leaving hoof prints that looked like full crescent moons.

Liliana involuntarily focused her gaze on the golden-horned doe. She knew how irrational this scene was, but she couldn't look away. She just stared at it intently, even obsessed...

The doe was like a creature wandering on the edge of a dream. Its graceful figure appeared and disappeared in the moonlight, and it took Liliana a long time to come back to her senses.

"What happened to me just now?"

Gradually regaining her dazed consciousness, the silver-haired girl felt something strange, but for some reason she didn't feel nervous at all. Her whole body felt lazy, as if she had just finished taking a bath.

"wrong!"

Shaking her head vigorously, Liliana took a deep breath to calm herself down, and slowly a sense of fear rose in her heart.

What happened just now was too horrible...

Perhaps, the golden-horned deer was just passing by and had no intention of attacking, nor did it have any hostility towards her.

But even just the strange magical power it emits passively is enough to make Liliana, the great knight, unable to extricate herself.

This is no longer an attraction that can be shown by appearance, it can be called the magic of "charm".

Liliana suspected that in the situation just now, if the doe attacked with hostility, she might not be able to react at all and would be killed in a trance...

Just like the golden apple, it has an absolute attraction, and its existence itself can make people lose their fighting spirit.

There is no doubt that the golden-horned doe that just passed by is a mythical beast, and it has left traces in mythology. It is not an unknown existence.

Liliana is a "Knight". In the magic system of this world, only those who are proficient in both magic and martial arts can call themselves knights.

Although she usually fights with swords, her magic is actually quite extraordinary and her theoretical knowledge is also very rich.

After calming down, she quickly thought of a mythical beast: Artemis’ golden-horned deer!

This was the first prey captured by Artemis, the goddess of hunting, and it was also a mythical beast released by her. It can be regarded as the pet of the goddess of hunting.

According to legend, one of the trials of Hercules was to capture this doe. It took him a whole year, and he even chased the beast to the far north where the sun only rises once a year, before he finally caught it.

"Why would Artemis's beloved appear here...ah, Lord Jiang Liu!"

Liliana, who was hesitant, remembered Jiang Liu's existence, and immediately put all her worries behind her and quickened her pace.

"This is terrible. What if it's really as I thought? Then Lord Jiang Liu will be in danger... Damn it, is the War of the Gods inevitable?"

She was originally happy that Hydra was quickly eliminated and did not cause much disturbance among the local residents, but another divine beast came in the blink of an eye, making her extremely anxious.

And unlike the Hydra, this time the beast has an owner!

Generally speaking, this kind of mythical beast is like the incarnation of a god, and will not easily show up. Once it shows up, it means that there is a certain probability that the person behind it will be brought out as well...

Goddess of the Hunt and the Moon: Artemis!

So the question is, if the goddess really appeared, what was her purpose?

Well, in this small country place with neither holy relics nor high-quality spiritual veins, I really can’t think of anything that can attract a goddess - except the dragon slayer hiding here!

If Artemis really came for Jiang Liu, then... no matter who wins or loses, this place will be greatly damaged again, and the change in terrain will be more than ten times that of the previous battle with Hydra!

After using the enhanced spell, Liliana quickly rushed to where Jiang Liu lived.

By the way, I have to say that the quality of the clothes she was wearing was really good. Even after such intense exercise, there was no sign of damage at all.

By the way, ever since Jiang Liu killed Hydra, he never stayed in a hotel or anything like that again, but instead made his home on this beach.

It’s not that he likes camping, but he took the responsibility of dealing with the aftermath, after all, he was the one who caused the incident.

What? People from Liliana's hometown are also dealing with it?

What a joke! These magicians are only there to deceive ordinary people and process intelligence. Don't have too much hope on them for anything beyond that.

Apart from anything else, the poison left by the Hydra alone is enough to make them suffer. Even if this thing is diluted a hundred times, it is still a deadly toxin for mortals.

It should be noted that although Hydra's body has been eliminated, the toxins that have been produced will not be converted into cursed power.

When Jiang Liu chopped off so many Hydra heads that day, the poisonous blood that spurted out had already soaked the nearby land thoroughly...

During this period, Jiang Liu was digging the soil leisurely every day, and then throwing those things that could be used directly as poison into the dark space, using the infinite abyss to deal with these poisons. Anyway, he was not afraid of taking up space!

In addition to cleaning up the mess, Jiang Liu did some interesting things out of boredom.

For example, he had bathed in Hydra poison in the past few days... and roasted the meat of Hydra's tail...

These things seemed really curious. Liliana had witnessed the scene of him eating Hydra barbecue and was deeply shocked. That’s why she decided to cook for him.

But Jiang Liu is not a pervert, there is a reason for all these things: he is cultivating his "natural body".

This blessing gave him extremely powerful physical activity, and he could even refine himself through unusual methods like the legendary heroes.

This time, Jiang Liu bathed in Hydra poison and gained immunity to the poison.

And to be honest, the meat of Hydra's tail is quite chewy.

"Lord Jiangliu!"

Liliana quickly arrived at the place and saw Jiang Liu standing there. Her panicked heart instantly calmed down a lot. The man's mere back gave her an infinite sense of security.

"Are you okay? I just--ah!"

When she got closer, Liliana suddenly became aware of the strange atmosphere in the air.

Not far in front of Jiang Liu, a figure stood there, seemingly confronting Jiang Liu.

Could it be... the disobedient Artemis?

Liliana gasped and instinctively felt terrified, but she did not abandon Jiang Liu and run away. Instead, she subconsciously reached for her waist.

With a flash of silver light, the gorgeous silver saber was hung on the waist, and the fairy swordsman held it tightly.

——She seemed to have forgotten that she was a human being and did not belong to either camp.

But the next moment, Liliana realized that it was not quite what she had imagined.

The man who was confronting Jiang Liu was not only tall and straight, but also had a sturdy figure. His figure was as still as a mountain under the moonlight.

He had no fancy clothes or armor on his body, only a light breastplate and a skirt armor that looked like animal skin. His muscles seemed to be carved out with the same texture as steel.

He wore a leather hat made of lion skin on his head. The fluffy mane supported his tall body, making him look even more majestic.

——This is actually a man!

Chapter 509: I'm just asking for directions

At this moment, Jiang Liu's mood was quite complicated.

Originally, he was somewhat self-aware and knew that in the worldview of "God Slayer", a person like him who was tainted by so many causes and effects would definitely attract the attention of many transcendent beings, just like throwing a stone into a calm lake, it would be impossible not to cause a series of waves.

With the divinity he possesses, he will definitely attract the attention of gods with attributes such as the sun, darkness, earth, and steel. It is almost certain that some disobedient gods will appear, and if he is not careful, he may even attract "onlookers".

He came here to gain experience and strength, not to attract attention, so he has been keeping a low profile for the past few days, intending to completely integrate into this world and take action after eliminating some troubles and risks.

Doing this did give him peace of mind for a while, but now it seems that some things cannot be avoided.

Even if most of the divinity can be restrained, there are some causes and effects that are closely linked to fate and cannot be hidden no matter what.

"The God of Disobedience... has arrived a little earlier than I expected."

Jiang Liu calmly looked at the burly man standing in front of him with a calm smile on his face.

Although his attire could be described as "plain" or even "barbaric," without any hint of magnificence or holiness, the being before him was indeed a special being with divine attributes.

The divinity, as hard and shining as refined steel, was extremely obvious in Jiang Liu's "eyes".

Not only is he a "god", but he is also a war god who is good at fighting... Well, there is no need to guess, this god does not hide his identity at all, and his real name is also obvious. Anyone who knows a little about mythology can basically tell who he is at a glance.

After all, the lion skin is too obvious a feature.

Although there are countless myths related to lions, this is Greece. When talking about male gods or heroes related to lions in Greek mythology, he should be the first person that comes to mind——

The great hero Hercules!

The son of Zeus, he assisted the gods in defeating the giants and led the people to capture Troy (Troy had been conquered once by Uncle B before those people), completed the twelve great trials, and was eventually elevated to a constellation. He is also the only hero in Greek mythology who was elevated from a human to a god!

Speaking of his story, it is truly popular and known to everyone. Each of the twelve trials is enough to be the greatest achievement in the life of other heroes, but for him it is just one of many stories.

It was certainly not just a coincidence that this "superman" would break free from the shackles of myth and become "disobedient" and come to this beach on a quiet night.

Of course, it’s coming for Jiang Liu!

if not?

Could you be here to ask for directions?

"Excuse me, have you seen a doe with golden horns?"

Jiang Liu: “…”

You really are here to ask for directions (deer)...

"Ah, never mind. That's not important anymore."

The burly man shook his head, paused for a moment, and then looked at Jiang Liu with a serious and intimidating look.

"you……"

To be honest, Jiang Liu was not surprised.

He always had a feeling that "it was as expected" that Hercules came to him, and he felt much more at ease.

As a demigod hero who was adopted and named by Hera, the queen of gods from another world, Jiang Liu also has the name "Hercules", and it is truly his real self, not plagiarized or copied from someone else.

He, Uncle B from the Type-Moon world, and Hercules from this world are all independent of each other, but it cannot be denied that there is indeed a mysterious "fate" between them.

Wasn't that how the Hydra was attracted a few days ago? Although Jiang Liu couldn't understand why the other party came to seek death...

Perhaps it was because it appeared right next to the river and there was no other choice.

The same was probably true for Hercules, who refused to follow the guidance from some unknown source and found the river.

"It's really strange... It feels familiar yet strange. It's clearly not my other godhead, but I feel as if I'm facing myself."

The burly man pulled up his lion-head hood, revealing a masculine and tough handsome face. He scratched his head and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

"Excuse me, who are you? Do we know each other?"

"It should be the first time we met." Jiang Liu spread his hands, "But I understand how you feel, because I feel the same way."

"It's not my illusion! But why?"

"Hmm... Your real name should be "Hercules" right?"

"Haha, exactly!"

The man thought for a moment and said, "Although there are other names, at least it's "Hercules" now. Um, I mean... are you another "me"?"

Because myths have a long history, their contents often change as they are passed down from generation to generation. Even the names of characters may change, and different mythological systems may sometimes merge with each other.

This results in most "gods" having more than one image, playing different roles in different myths, and having different names.
