The Warrior of Love

If the Immortal Slash had not been sealed, Jiang Liu would not have used this move easily.

Jiang Liu's crazy posture only lasted less than ten seconds, but he managed to break all of Hercules' god-given armor into pieces!

That was the breastplate given by Athena and the arm guards made by the God of Fire. They had the ability to weaken physical damage by multiples. Logically, they were the most capable of restraining Jiang Liu's purely destructive attacks... but now they were shattered into pieces like pieces of paper.

Not only the armor, but even Hercules himself suffered great damage.

Bones, muscles, internal organs... Even an immortal hero will begin to feel the threat of death for a moment.

But he is an immortal steel hero. The milk of Hera (the Earth Mother Goddess) allowed him to shed his mortal body and gain the endless power of resuscitation. As long as he does not die instantly, he can use divine power to slowly repair his body.

After a pause, the two looked at each other and grinned.

Bang!Bang!Bang!

Hercules held a huge club and ravaged the void with endless thunder!

Jiang Liu faced the enemy with his bare hands, but the sword pressure extended from his hand was sharper than any holy sword!

The waves, which had originally calmed down, suddenly became boiling again. The explosive fist winds and the joyful roars stirred up the sea, forcing Liliana, who was riding the divine horse Arion, to change her position again.

Finally, after a thunderous explosion, the chaotic sky became quiet for a moment.

A burly man with a strong body appeared in the chaos. In the void opposite him, a shirtless young man was desperately trying to refine his magic power.

No matter which side it is, it has already reached its limit, and the next move may determine the outcome.

"call……"

With a long breath, Hercules put away his club and took out another weapon.

At this moment, he held a gorgeous bow that was more than a person's height. It was a treasure given by Apollo, the god of bows and arrows. It could split arrows into countless pieces and endow all of his arrows with the "protection of light and heat". As for the previous "rainstorm", it came from the golden quiver on his waist.

A divine weapon created by Hephaestus, the god of fire, that can produce an unlimited number of arrows powerful enough to cause damage to the gods.

The previous rain of light came from the fusion of these two artifacts. Its power was obvious to all. Even Jiang Liu, who had triple powerful protection, was pierced through the body.

However, he took out these two artifacts again not to launch the second rain of light - since he failed to kill Jiang Liu before, it would be the same no matter how many times.

Jiang Liu possesses a special defensive effect against the sun divinity, which can somewhat restrain Apollo's protection. Although Hercules does not know this, it does not prevent him from judging from his rich combat experience that the same attack will have little effect on Jiang Liu.

Although he is a god of disobedience, his power is not unlimited.

At this point in the battle, he no longer had many cards left, and his strength had been greatly depleted. He had to use the remaining divine power with caution.

"The next move will decide the outcome!"

——It’s impossible to be cautious!

He is a heroic god driven by madness. How could he remain rational in such a thrilling battle?

"You're right. Even if you have a thousand weapons, they are not as good as the 'ultimate one'."

Hercules drew an arrow from his golden quiver and placed it on Apollo's bow.

"The fact that I was defeated by you despite having so many divine weapons is the best proof."

Although his tone was calm, Jiang Liu felt an inexplicable pressure and immediately released all the magic power he could, causing a golden shadow to flicker behind him.

"However, I did not rely on external things to engrave my name as a hero in mythology. I have the same things as you. Now, let me pay my last respects! Look, this is my "Ultimate One"!"

hum!

It shines to its extreme, giving birth to a blazing white light, and a god-killing light of nothingness flows on the arrow.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Liu's pupils suddenly shrank.

The huge magic power was no longer reserved, and the golden giant descended in infinite glory as if carrying the sun on his back.

——The Sun King!

"Ha! It's a giant? What a coincidence! I have the arrow that can shoot down all the giants!"

Hercules grinned, then restrained his smile and asked seriously: "Heroes of mankind, sing, struggle, and do your best to surpass my myth! If you want to live, let me see the power of subverting fate!"

hum-

The God-killing Arrow of Nothingness was suddenly shot out. It was the unparalleled archery skills that Hercules displayed on Mount Olympus when he assisted the gods and killed all the descendants of Gaia.

Legend has it that Gaia, the mother of the earth, gave birth to deformed giants for Uranus, who attacked Mount Olympus, where her rebellious children lived.

Those giants were so ferocious that even the gods could not match them. The stars changed color and the sun god Helios turned his sun chariot around when he saw them.

However, Hercules was standing on the cliff with his bow and arrow, and every time he pulled the bow, he would kill a giant. As a hero, he led the gods to victory!

This arrow is a sure-fire way to hit the target and penetrate the target!

The higher the divinity and the larger the body size, the more easily it can be restrained from instant death attacks!

The "ultimate one" that belongs to him alone!

However, facing this arrow, Jiang Liu was not afraid. The Golden Sun King solidified instantly, and he raised the sword high as if it could cut through the starry sky. He burned all the magic power in his body and poured it into the sword that would annihilate the Demon King!

"Fall, Son of Gaia!"

"Cut it in two with one stroke o Sun Holy Sword!"

The illusory arrow of God-killing and the golden torrent met in mid-air, time was instantly frozen, and the world seemed to have come to a standstill.

Immediately, the light and roar flooded the starry sky and the sea!

boom! !

Chapter 517: Pandora, the Goddess of Hope

"Isn't this too shameless?"

A rough voice with some complaint came to his ears, which made Jiang Liu frown in his hazy consciousness. Then he slowly opened his eyes, and then saw a burly man wearing a lion skin standing in front of him like an iron tower.

"It was a mutual destruction, but you were able to revive yourself... Doesn't that mean you won?"

"Am I... dead?"

Jiang Liu looked around and saw only a vast expanse of white. The empty space seemed to extend to infinity, and then he slowly recalled what had happened before.

"Oh yeah, in the end... I see, it really was "dying once" after all."

After saying this, he pursed his lips and looked at Hercules seriously, with undisguised admiration in his eyes.

“To be honest, although this has happened many times before, after I grew to a certain level, I haven’t encountered an opponent who pushed me into a desperate situation for a long time, let alone being reduced to the point where I needed to use “Resurrection”.

You are really strong, you are worthy of being the greatest hero in Greece!"

"I don't feel happy at all to hear such words. No matter how much you flatter me, it can't change the fact that I, a god, was defeated by a mortal... Are you really a human?"

Hercules scratched his messy hair in confusion: "To be honest, I can't believe it in every sense of the word!"

“I always seem to run into this problem…”

Jiang Liu's tone was filled with a hint of bitterness: "In terms of power level, I think I can be considered as such, but if you have to look at it strictly, I have indeed not reached the "godhood" and am still just a mortal."

"A mortal who can surpass a god is a hero who has accomplished superhuman feats."

Perhaps Hercules was thinking of his own myth, and his expression softened.

"Although it's hard to believe, I don't seem to be qualified to question such things."

——Because Hercules himself has such a legend.

"No matter what, it's a fact that I lost, hahahaha!"

Shaking his head, throwing away all those distracting thoughts, Hercules laughed heartily.

"This was really... a good fight! As the winner, you can be more arrogant. Remember, you defeated me - Hercules!"

After saying this, the god turned and left, his tall figure gradually fading away in the white world...

“But you must also be prepared. When we meet again next time, I will definitely wash away the shame of this failure! In order to avoid being killed by me, continue to become stronger, Demon King who kills gods…”

——When he came to his senses, Jiang Liu was already alone in the space.

"So, how do we leave here?"

"Are you in such a hurry to leave? But mom won't agree. I finally have a new child, and mom wants to stay with you for a while longer!"

A brisk and sweet voice, as childish as a little girl, yet inexplicably charming, came from behind.

Jiang Liu turned around in surprise, and what he saw was a "miraculous" girl.

She had a face and features as delicate as those of a fairy in a fairy tale, long hair that was more beautiful and purer than gold, tied into two ponytails and hanging at her sides, a slender figure like that of a girl, but well-proportioned and slim, wearing a thin white dress. She stood there prettyly, yet she had a mature charm that a girl did not possess.

Even though he had met many people with outstanding looks in his life, Jiang Liu had to admit that the girl in front of him could be described as a "rare beauty" based on her appearance alone.

Of course, in Jiang Liu's mind, Hebe is more adorable.

Even in terms of body shape, Heber is better than her - considering that the goddess of youth is already a relatively "poor" type, the twin-tailed girl in front of her is really pitiful...

"I always feel like you're thinking of something very rude."

Shao Mei frowned slightly, but soon relaxed.

"Forget it! Now is not the time to gossip. You may wake up at any time in the outside world. I need to explain everything to you as soon as possible.

Nice to meet you, hero who killed gods. My name is Pandora. I am the goddess who gives all despair and hope, and I am also the mother of you, the godslayers.

"Pandora..."

Jiang Liu chewed on the name, because this goddess was so famous that he almost instantly remembered the myth related to her.

Pandora - the daughter of disaster.

In Greek mythology, Zeus asked the god of fire Hephaestus to create a girl with absolutely perfect appearance and talent in order to punish mankind. Not only was she blessed with everything by the gods, but she also had a temptation that no one could resist.

She was given as a gift to Epimetheus the Fool, brother of Prometheus the Wise.

But in the end, she couldn't resist her curiosity and opened the box given by Zeus, releasing all the disasters stored inside, causing the destruction of mankind. After the disasters were released, "hope" remained in the box...

"Mother of the God Slayer? Are you the one who presides over the ceremony for humans to usurp the power of the gods?"

Jiang Liu was a little surprised. As for the fact that humans became "God Killers" after defeating the gods, it seemed that there was indeed a goddess behind the scenes in his memory. However, she did not appear much in the "original work", so Jiang Liu was not sure who she was, so he was quite surprised at this moment.

Compared to Pandora, it seems more reasonable to replace it with goddesses like Athena and Queen Mother of the West who guide the heroes forward.

But what Jiang Liu didn't know was that the "God of Disobedience" in this world was not the god in the public's impression. Its heritage was long and complicated. Some things were really hard to say. It was impossible to get the truth of the matter by only inferring through some superficial information.

Moreover, the secret ritual of "God Slayer" was just a plan by Pandora and two other gods, who wanted to give humans "hope" to fight against God.

From this point of view, it coincides with the myth of Pandora.

"That's right, I am the one who guides the reincarnation ritual of the "God Slayer". All the mortals who have created miracles have been transformed from weak lives into heroes who can kill gods through my hands! Therefore, I am also the mother of all God Slayers - you can also call me "Mom"! "

"Uh..." Jiang Liu suddenly had a headache.

Pandora raised her forehead slightly with pride, and then stared at Jiang Liu with great joy.

"Of course, the process of mortals challenging gods is extremely exciting and also makes me feel extremely satisfied, especially your battle with the disobedient Hercules...

For so many years, ever since the creation of the reincarnation ritual, I have never seen a human being who, when killing a god for the first time, could kill such a powerful steel hero god with his own strength and martial arts without the help of external objects, under completely fair and equal conditions!

There is no doubt that you are a true godslayer! Among all my children, you are probably the most special one. "

After saying that, Pandora smiled sweetly at Jiang Liu and waved her white little hands happily.

"Goodbye, my youngest child - I am so looking forward to your future!"

In the haze, the white space began to blur, and Jiang Liu's consciousness gradually became hazy... He outside was about to "wake up".

Chapter 518: Power: Path to Glory

Deep in the sea of ​​consciousness, there lies the original book that records everything. At a certain moment, this ancient book is slowly opened, and after flipping through the pages, it stops at the latest page. Countless golden particles slowly condense on it, outlining a strange pattern like a paintbrush.

——That’s a shield.

Magnificent and noble, sacred and sublime, even all the words of praise in the world are not enough to describe its full picture, as if the magnificence of the entire world is displayed before our eyes.

In fact, it does carry the "world".

This shield made of ivory, gold and silver was a gift from the god of fire Hephaestus to the hero Hercules, but it was more than just a piece of weapon.

There are many beautiful and detailed pictures engraved on the shield:

Strangling a giant lion, shooting a giant, chasing a bison, subduing a three-headed dog...ancient legends are closely arranged.

Beyond these legends, the outermost circle of the shield is a group of gods whose figures are either majestic, beautiful, or holy. They are the gods who reign over Mount Olympus.
