The Warrior of Love
Page 316
Some gods that seem completely unrelated may have the same prototype.
In the more famous Christian mythology, the image of "Baal", the great devil who rules over hell, comes from the Canaanite mythology of the Phoenicians. He is the god of abundance, thunder and lightning, and the sun in this mythological system, and represents absolute justice.
The reason why he fell from a god-king to a demon was that while Christianity was expanding, it destroyed his faith and stigmatized it to highlight its own beliefs.
The image of Baal in Canaanite mythology can be traced back to the harvest god in Mesopotamian mythology, and his name can even be found in the Koran...
Similarly, Hercules also has other images, and his prototype can be found in more ancient myths. As one of the most well-known heroes, he has become the prototype of many heroic legends in later generations.
"Hercules" is just the most representative one, not all of them.
At this time, the question raised by the disobedient god who appeared in the form of "Hercules" was precisely doubting Jiang Liu's identity.
In his opinion, Jiang Liu is most likely "himself" in other myths.
But...if that was really the case, he should be able to feel it very clearly, not as vague as it is now, so he didn't have complete confidence.
Sure enough, Jiang Liu just shook his head and denied his speculation.
"This is strange...ah, could it be...you are my descendant?"
Hercules suddenly realized: "This makes sense!"
"no!"
Jiang Liu's forehead was filled with black lines and he sighed helplessly.
"It's not that complicated. It just happens that my name is also "Hercules."
"what?"
When these words were spoken, both the God of Disobedience and Liliana were stunned.
The silver-haired girl looked at Jiang Liu in a daze, confusion in her eyes: What about the name "Jiang Liu"?
Was everything he told me before a lie? Was he lying to me?
——Inexplicably, at this critical moment, the silver-haired girl began to feel sorry for herself.
But...why would an Oriental person have a name like "Hercules"?
"Hmm...same as me?"
The burly male god stood with his arms crossed and his mouth pulled down, as if he was thinking about it for a while, but in the end he just pursed his lips as if he found it troublesome.
"I don't want to think about it anymore. The more I think about it, the less I understand... It doesn't matter whether you are another "me", or my descendant, or even if it's just a name your ignorant parents gave you by chance - it doesn't matter at all!"
The disobedient Hercules grinned, pointed his big hand at the river, and an invisible wind pressure swept through the space, shocking people's hearts.
“I knew it the first time we met that I woke up this time not to chase after that bitch Moon Goddess’s golden-horned deer.
Even if I repeat this great feat that has already been accomplished, it would be meaningless to me.
A true warrior should not be obsessed with past glory, but should keep moving forward and create new myths!
Then, you will be my opponent in writing the myth together!
Well, there is no doubt about it, I am very sure of this... I can tell from the look in my eyes that you think the same way about me, right?
That is the look of a warrior and a hunter. From your breathing which was not disordered at all from beginning to end, it can be seen that you are a very powerful warrior.
In that case, I don't need to explain any more, right? Or do you need a reason to fight?"
"unnecessary."
Jiang Liu shrugged, looking helpless but actually excited, and said, "We can find the reason afterwards. The winner has plenty of time to think about this issue."
"Wow, full of confidence."
"Isn't it the same for you?"
"Hahaha...Okay, it's decided. I'm going to use all my strength to defeat you!"
Chapter 510: How many mothers do you have?
Hercules was not joking. The greatest hero of Greece did what he said. He suddenly jumped up as soon as he finished speaking. His burly body was as aggressive as a lion or tiger hunting. The soft sand was torn apart by the strong wind. He hit Jiang Liu in the chest with a heavy punch that seemed to have condensed the mass of an entire mountain.
However, long before he was hit, Jiang Liu had crossed his arms and made the simplest protection on his chest.
Even so, Jiang Liu, who was hit hard, couldn't help but groan, and flew backwards with deep grooves on his body.
"boom!"
Hercules' figure suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he had caught up with Jiang Liu. With a kick as swift as thunder, the young man's body turned into a cannonball shot into the sky, instantly rushing to a height of a thousand meters.
"Buzz!"
Hercules' speed obviously broke the sound barrier, and it could even be said that he had teleportation-level mobility. He also arrived here before Jiang Liu, raised his strong and powerful thigh high, and slashed fiercely at Jiang Liu who was rushing up -
call!
When the great hero was about to succeed, Jiang Liu, who had been passively taking the beating and seemed powerless to resist, suddenly turned around and let Hercules' attack fall into thin air.
The next moment, Jiang Liu, who had made a circle, stretched out his right leg and chopped Hercules' head hard like a battle axe!
A black meteor fell from the sky with heavy wind pressure, breaking the soft moonlight. Amid the earth-shaking explosion, a bottomless pit appeared on the beach, and then thousands of tons of seawater poured in as the waves rolled...
Soon, a small lake connected to the sea appeared.
Jiang Liu certainly didn't think that the great Hercules would be defeated so easily, but he didn't go into the water to look for him. Instead, he made a flying kick from a distance, and his condensed domineering aura transformed into a dark crescent that split the surface of the lake.
"Liu Ying o Duan Lan Hua!"
The domineering aura was not weakened in the slightest by the hundreds of meters deep water layer, tearing apart the disobedient god under the water and the ground at the same time—
"Bang!!"
Just like a volcanic eruption, tens of millions of tons of seawater turned into water droplets and were scattered in all directions, and a heavy rain fell in an instant.
"Hahaha!"
With a hearty laugh, a strong and sturdy body rose from the bottom of the lake. It looked a lot more miserable, but there was no sign of any damage. "What a pleasure!"
The great hero broke the sound barrier once again and attacked Jiang Liu at a speed that was impossible to detect with the naked eye. Every muscle in his body was trembling, and the wind from his fist that shattered the air swept through Jiang Liu's body in an instant.
Even someone as strong as Jiang Liu felt a little suffocated, and before he could recover, the real punch had already arrived.
It is an iron hammer that can shatter mountains and rivers. Although it does not have gorgeous brilliance or earth-shaking sound, no matter what stands in the way, it will be ruthlessly destroyed by this fist!
"call--"
Jiang Liu's pupils shrank, but he did not retreat. Instead, he followed suit and gathered all his strength, throwing a counter punch!
boom! !
In hand-to-hand combat, exquisite moves are not the most important pursuit. On the contrary, the technique of exerting force is the most simple and unpretentious yet requires effort.
At the stage of Jiang Liu and Heralex, it is not difficult to gather strength in an instant, but it is extremely rare to burst out with strength beyond one's own limits without storing energy.
No one intended to dodge this attack. Two iron fists powerful enough to split mountains and rocks met in mid-air, causing a tornado-like vortex, stirring up the wind and clouds in the clear sky!
For a moment, fists were flying like phantoms, and the two of them were fighting back and forth, which was very lively.
Jiang Liu was full of energy and excitement, but he did not lose his mind. He deliberately threw a straight punch, knocking Hercules away for thousands of meters, and moved the battlefield to the depths of the ocean.
The peaceful moonlit night is no longer there, the brilliant starry sky is distorted by the storm, and a casual blow from the two heroes can create a hundred-meter-high wave on the sea.
If it was not at the seaside but inland, a small town could be destroyed in a breath and a city could be razed to the ground without any care!
After a moment, two figures flew out from different directions, then fell to the ground, returning to their original places.
Watching them slowly falling from the sky and looking at the artificially created "storm" on the horizon in the distance, the silver-haired girl couldn't help but tremble all over.
Although she thought she had some abilities, she was truly vulnerable in front of this extraordinary monster.
Even a Paladin at the pinnacle of mortals is like dust in front of the Demon King and the God of Disobedience!
"You are wonderful!"
The burly man, who didn't even notice that he was being stared at by the human girl and had a shoe print on his face, was extremely excited.
"Your skills, your body, and your violence simply make me unable to stop!"
"Uh..." Jiang Liu, who had just adjusted his state, couldn't help but roll his eyes when he heard this.
Hercules, who refused to obey, did not care and said to himself: "There are not many war gods who can fight with me with fists and feet. It has been a long time since I met an opponent in close combat."
Jiang Liu did not immediately refute or ridicule these seemingly arrogant words. Instead, he nodded silently - he had a similar feeling.
Although the disobedient Hercules was delighted to see the prey, Jiang Liu also hadn't met a strong man who could fight against him on equal terms in physical skills for a long time!
"Besides, I also understood it from the fight just now."
Hercules looked deeply at Jiang Liu and said, "You are not a god, but a human being with flesh and blood."
Jiang Liu's expression remained unchanged, but Liliana, who was watching the battle carefully at the side, widened her eyes.
"Just now, apart from my own wrist strength, I didn't use any divine protection. You also only used physical strength, right?"
"I guess so." Jiang Liu nodded.
Indeed, although it seemed like such a big commotion just now, neither side used their full strength, or rather, they only used "all their wrist strength".
Jiang Liu had only used his Armament Haki to launch a long-range attack from the beginning to the end. Apart from that, he had not used any magic power, divine power, protection, or weapons.
It's just the purest, one-on-one melee combat without weapons or spells!
As a result, the difference in wrist strength between the two is almost the same, even if one of them is stronger, it can be ignored. In terms of physical skills, Jiang Liu's force generation skills and ability to anticipate the battle are better!
However, this advantage cannot cause any substantial damage until the trump card that decides the outcome is used.
Neither Jiang Liu nor Hercules would take "flesh injuries" seriously.
"There are not many gods who can fight me in physical combat, and you are just a human. It's incredible... Do you have the same name as me? Well, I admit it. You are undoubtedly worthy of this glorious name!"
"I don't need you to recognize my name, God of Disobedience."
Jiang Liu, who had been smiling, restrained his smile and frowned slightly.
"This name was given to me by my mother, and no one can question it. No matter where I go, I will never let the name my mother gave me be tarnished."
"Oh... I'm sorry, it seems I was too arrogant."
Hercules narrowed his eyes. "Indeed, you don't need the approval of others, because you will shut everyone up with your actions."
"Ah……"
Jiang Liu shook his head, and the tense atmosphere eased slightly.
"However, if you feel that this name is too awkward, then just call me "Jiang Liu"."
"Jiang Liu?"
"This is also the name my mother left me... Ah, this is not the same person as the previous one, please don't misunderstand, this is my real name."
Hercules blinked and frowned, "Why is it a bit confusing... How many mothers do you have?"
"Uh..." Jiang Liu was speechless for a moment!
Speaking of which, his soul still remembers his mother from his previous life. The name "Yuanshan Jiangliu" was left by his mother in this life. "Hercules" was given by his adoptive mother Hera, but Jiangliu's current body has been transformed by Tiamat...
"You're meddling too much!" Jiang Liu's face suddenly turned cold. "If you want to fight, just fight. Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Hercules was confused for a moment, not knowing why Jiang Liu's attitude changed so drastically and refusing to obey.
The silver-haired girl watching the battle was excited, and kept thinking: He is really a human! His name is really Jiang Liu! He didn't lie to me! But how can a human be so powerful?
——The girl was also in a trance and didn’t know where she was.
For a moment, the three people in the field were all thinking about their own things, and only the sound of the wind could be heard...
Chapter 511: Witness this myth of the new era!
In fact, as a disobedient god, Hercules really had no qualifications to ask Jiang Liu this question.
The so-called "gods" are a fusion of various legends. There is not only one image and godhood, not to mention the relationship between relatives - it's so confusing!
Even if we only look at the image of "Hercules", he has a biological father, Zeus, and two stepfathers (is it Zeus who puts the hat on others or is he the one who is put the hat on?).
The reason why he was surprised was simply out of curiosity. Jiang Liu was obviously a human being, so how could he have such a situation? But seriously speaking, it was hard to say whether Jiang Liu was still a human being.
"That kind of thing is fine."
The burly God of Disobedience waved his hand and put on an expression that showed he didn't care.
