In other words, Ares was not taken to the underworld in the Olympus realm.

He naturally understood the meaning of Taiyi's action.

Kill the chicken and show it to the monkey.

But the weight of this chicken is much heavier than that of this monkey.

There was the information gap with Athena, and Taiyi ruthlessly killed Ares, who was more important than him, and took away Ares' soul to an unknown place. The numerous crises made Hermes' little thoughts be crushed by his cautiousness.

Hermes did not consider himself a wise god, he was just a little clever.

So I never think too much about it.

When he encounters a being that Little Smart cannot resist, he will obey obediently.

In order to prevent the two gods of Olympus from linking the confession, Taiyi not only deliberately divided the interrogation sites of Hermes and Athena into two edge locations in the east and west, he even brought Tachibana in a chariot and used her barrier technique to isolate all means of communication between the room and the outside world.

"Okay, let's talk."

Taichi moved a chair for Athena and motioned for her to sit down.

Then he turned around and went back to the desk opposite the chair and nodded to the clerk sitting behind the screen, indicating that he could start taking notes.

"What are you talking about?" Athena sat leisurely on the chair, then crossed her legs and looked at Taiyi and asked.

"There are many things to talk about." Taiyi crossed his hands, put his elbows on the table, and looked up at Athena, "For example, the whole picture of Zeus' plan that you have seen, or part of it."

"For example, the organization, number, race, and warfare methods of the Olympus Divine Realm Legion."

"Or, the exact location of the Olympus Divine Realm, how to enter, and what to be careful of when entering."

"Anything is fine. You are free to play with it."

"...Are you conducting a serious interrogation?" Athena raised her eyebrows and looked at Taiyi in confusion. "You are greedy and want to know everything, but you don't have the corresponding sticks and candies."

"Maybe not." Taiyi rolled his eyes unhappily, "After all, I'm not a professional interrogator."

"And if we let professionals come, I'm worried that they won't be able to handle gods like you."

"Otherwise, why would I not use professionals and instead ask Tai Gong Wang, who has such an important responsibility, and me to personally do it?"

"As for the stick and the candy... the stick has already been shown to you," Taiyi reminded with a shrug, "The consequence of Ares is the consequence of the stick falling."

"And candy... no matter what kind of candy I throw, neither you nor Hermes will believe it."

"So, why should I bother?"

"Hermes is a smart man. As long as he wants to survive, he will sooner or later tell everyone everything he knows. After all, information asymmetry and fraud are not his specialty."

"...Okay, I admit that Hermes is not smart." Athena sighed obscurely and looked at Taiyi who was staring at him. "But before I betray the Olympus God Realm and my father Zeus, I have a question that I hope you can answer."

"What's the question?" Taiyi tilted his head and signaled to Athena, "I will decide whether to answer it based on the importance of the question."

"Ares, what did you do to Ares' soul?" Athena swallowed and asked this question that made her feel cold.

Hermes could sense it, and as she was also one of the twelve gods of Olympus, she could naturally sense it as well.

"Ares's soul? There is no such thing anymore." Taiyi shook his head and replied, "It has completely dissipated between heaven and earth. There is no possibility of reincarnation or resurrection."

This is true.

But Taiyi didn’t tell the whole story.

Ares did retain his soul before his death.

But when Taiyi threw Achilles' spear through his head, his remaining soul instantly turned into pure divine power and merged into Taiyi's body.

After all, the origin of his body is the god of the underworld.

As a 'mecha' of the god of the underworld, it is only natural for it to intercept 'other residents of the underworld'.

Although before Ares's divine power was integrated into Taiyi's body, he himself didn't know that he had this ability.

After all, all things considered, the only god Taiyi had killed, besides Enryuchi, was Ares.

In Himiko's words, Taichi is now ignorantly developing the true function of his body.

However, Ares's power...

Taiyi sensed the divine power in his body for a moment, then shook his head.

It can only be said to be better than nothing.

It's not even one-fifth of Yuan Luzhi's amount.

And there are no special privileges.

The only thing worth mentioning is probably that Ares's divine power can be used to strengthen Achilles' power.

Achilles' Noble Phantasm can now be activated for a longer period of time.

Chapter 133: Taigong Wang: My Majesty is always too modest

After knowing Ares' ending, Athena behaved quite cooperatively.

Basically, she gave positive responses to the questions Taiyi just raised.

It is not certain whether the accuracy of this response is high or low.

After all, Taiyi had never dealt with the "interrogation" aspect.

Although Jeanne d'Arc, who could almost be used as a lie detector, was present in the internal meeting, Taichi still could not guarantee the accuracy.

After all, we can only know whether the other party is lying, but we cannot calculate whether the other party is concealing something, or deliberately moving the old system into the new era.

Therefore, after the clerk had recorded more than a dozen pages, Taiyi waved his hand to indicate the end of the interrogation.

"Do you need anything to eat or drink? I can have someone bring it to you." Taiyi stood up and looked at Athena and asked.

"No need." Athena, who still valued her life, shook her head and replied.

"Well, you sit here for a while." Taiyi looked at Athena, then said unsurely, "How about I leave a divine horse here to entertain you?"

"No, there is absolutely no need for that." Athena curled her lips, looked at Taiyi helplessly and replied, "You don't need to worry that I will try to break through the barrier and escape from here."

"Although this barrier is quite sophisticated, it only means two more hits for me. But even if I run at full speed, I will not be able to lose the speed of your chariot before escaping this world."

"Running away has no other effect on me except seeking my own death."

"Well, then you sit here for a while. I'll come see you after we check the information." Taiyi nodded, then left Athena alone in the room and left.

Of course, although that was what he said, in order to avoid the possibility that Athena would just relax her vigilance and give herself a chance to escape, Taiyi still ordered Achilles' chariot to patrol above the palace.

If anyone dares to show up, I will just bump into him.

……

"Are the results of your interrogation so fierce?" Looking at the records handed over by the clerk, Tai Gong Wang showed a confused face, "In order to make Hermes accept the extent of his betrayal, I deliberately started with the relatively minor and useless information."

"I didn't expect Athena to tell the truth." Taiyi pouted and replied, "Others don't know what I'm good at and what I'm not good at, but don't I know it myself?"

"Interrogation? I can't do this kind of work where you have to play tricks on your opponent."

"Forget it, I'll compare the contents first." Tai Gong Wang pressed his temple and sighed, "Maybe I can find some information that can overlap."

"Oh." Taiyi nodded, then turned his head as if he remembered something and looked at Tai Gongwang who was playing the spot-the-difference game in the records and reminded him, "When you return to Hermes' interrogation room later, don't say anything else, just throw his previous records on the table and ask him why there are so many inconsistencies between his records and Athena's."

"Trick him!"

Taigong Wang looked up at Taiyi in surprise, then nodded.

Just tell him that he is not good at interrogation?

Tai Gong Wang always felt that his emperor was always too modest.

After all, according to Athena's notes, she had almost figured out 50% to 60% of the troop deployment in Olympus.

Fifteen minutes later, Tai Gongwang raised his head, rubbed his eyes, and then let out a long sigh.

"Eighty percent of the responses that overlapped between the two records were the same answer."

"In other words, either these two people are replacing the current deployment with the past deployment, or one of them is lying and the other is telling the truth, or both of them are lying." Taiyi irresponsibly gave three possibilities.

Tai Gong Wang only thought about it for a few seconds and found that...what Your Majesty said makes a lot of sense!

The main theme is distrust.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan in mind." After finishing the two transcripts, Tai Gong Wang bowed to Tai Yi and said, "I will be in charge of the rest."

Well, you can go back to the back garden and continue playing.

This is roughly what Taigong Wang meant.

"Okay." Taiyi nodded, "I'll trust you, a professional immortal, to me, Taigongwang."

Tai Gongwang was somewhat flattered and surprised that Taiyi always had a lot of trust in him for no apparent reason.

After saying goodbye to Taigongwang, Taiyi planned to go directly to the Imperial Hospital to visit Sofitia and Hongye.

The two of them were seriously injured in order to obey Taiyi's orders.

Damn that guy Hermes!

Taiyi glared fiercely at the place where Hermes was imprisoned, then walked straight towards the Imperial Hospital.

As for Athena who was still in the interrogation room... Taiyi felt that the sudden change of interrogator without giving her any psychological preparation in advance would catch her off guard and make her reveal some flaws.

……

The streets were in chaos.

After all, Taiyi had asked Taigongwang to raise the alert level to the highest level before.

Ancient soldiers who had not undergone future recruit training were always unable to follow orders when assembled.

So Taiyi had already expected to see this chaotic scene.

Although he had been mentally prepared, when he saw the chaotic military system, Taiyi still shook his head in deep dissatisfaction.

The reform of the military and political system must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

……

Outside the emergency room of the Imperial Hospital, Taiyi paced back and forth at the door anxiously.

Although Shennong had performed first aid on Sofitia and Hongye before, the injuries on the two were so severe that after being transported to the Imperial Hospital by Shennong, they were immediately placed in the operating room and treated by several doctors with relatively the highest medical skills.

But, as for the doctors in ancient times…those who understood, understood.

Three points depend on the doctor's hard work, one point depends on the patient's physical condition, and the last six points depend on God's will.

Now that Shennong has taken the three points and the six points, it all depends on the result of the last point.

It didn't take too long.

After all, when Taiyi was interrogating Athena and taking notes with Taigong Wang, Shennong and Namu were already rescuing Sofitia and Hongye.

"Both of them are no longer in danger of life. They both have very good physical fitness, so they just need to rest carefully for a period of time and they will recover." Namu wiped the sweat from his face and forehead with a towel and went outside the emergency room to report the situation of Sofitia and Hongye to Taiyi.

"Then when can I visit them both... provided it does not affect their recovery."

"Now you can."

Chapter 134: Employing Tamamonomae

"The situation in Olympus is troublesome."

It was the next day that Taigong Wang appeared in front of Taiyi with the transcript.

Looking at the bloodshot in his pupils, you can tell that he has not had any rest.

"Olympus is a trouble. We should have known this when we met Ares." Because the situation is quite tense now, Taiyi did not return to the back court to continue enjoying his nightlife after visiting Sofitia and Hongye yesterday.

Instead, he came to the Cabinet Office and waited for the situation to become clear.

"Zeus, the king of the gods of the Olympus Realm, and several other gods besides Ares, Athena, and Hermes, plus the celestial army of the Olympus Realm."

"To be honest, unless we ask the immortal world for reinforcements, we will not be able to fight against the Olympus Divine Realm."

"Even if you and the three of us are in the high-level combat power, and Sofitia and Sakura are in the middle-level combat power, we can't make up for the huge combat power gap." Tai Gongwang handed the transcript to Taiyi with a gloomy face, and added, "Moreover, let's not talk about whether the immortal world can send us reinforcements. Even if they really come to support us, the severely damaged immortal world may be unable to stop the invasion of the Olympus Divine Realm."

"By then, Your Majesty, I'm afraid the new country will be completely destroyed by war."

Taiyi closed his eyes and began to think about how he should respond if the Olympus Divine Realm invaded on a large scale.
