I really didn't want to burn it.

After Athena presented the Demon Pillars as evidence, Hercules finally agreed to the plan.

“With such evil things causing trouble, the world cannot find peace,” Hercules said solemnly to the owl. “I will take action not because of that father, but for the sake of the whole world. I hope you understand the difference.”

"Of course I understand."

The owl nodded.

Li Ang, who had been eavesdropping on their conversation from a distance, smiled slightly upon seeing that he had successfully persuaded them to join his group.

"It seems to be going very smoothly."

Li Ang casually scribbled a couple of lines in his notebook.

"Next are the Grand Duke and the Chief Commander, and then we'll wait for my mother-in-law's notification..."

Tethys has already taken her daughters to find other gods who are dissatisfied with Zeus.

Once Enkidu joins and Tethys gathers everyone, Leon and his men can then march on Troy.

"Your name is Li Ang, right? What have you been doing since just now?"

Just as Li Ang was pondering, Hercules walked over and struck up a conversation with him.

“I’m making plans, after all, taking down Olympus is no child’s play.”

Li Ang put away his notebook and looked up at Hercules.

"You didn't tell Athena the whole plan, did you?"

Hercules said in a low voice.

"Why do you say that?"

“Athena said that the next sea god will be Tethys,” Hercules said in a deep voice. “As far as I know him, he will not appoint the Titans as the chief gods.”

"so……"

“I don’t think you have enough reason to convince him, so there’s only one truth. He’s no longer the God-King, so who the Sea God is is no longer up to him.”

Hercules paused deliberately at this point before continuing.

"You intend to overthrow Zeus."

"puff----!"

On the other side, Orion spat out his drink; he hadn't expected Leon's ambitions to be so great.

"You're so filthy, no wonder Artemis doesn't like you."

“That has absolutely no relation!” Orion retorted loudly. “How could a handsome Greek man like me not be liked by girls!”

"Then you should hurry up and win over Artemis, make her fall head over heels in love with you, and then get her to stand on our side."

Li Ang said in a tone that said, "You're just a tool bear."

"These are completely two different things!"

Orion first shouted a complaint, then asked in a very low voice, "Are you really planning to overthrow Zeus?"

"Would I joke about something like rebellion? Besides, we've already killed a main god, how could we possibly stop?" Li Ang smiled casually.

“Killed one…wait, weren’t you investigating my father’s death?”

“Congratulations on discovering the blind spot, Mr. Bear,” Li Ang said with a smile. “Zeus didn’t know about this; he just ‘happened’ to assign the investigation to Athena.”

"The thief is crying 'Stop thief!'"

Orionton felt hopeless about the future, looking as pitiful as if he had been sold to a black-hearted coal mine as a child laborer.

"Do you want to avenge your father?" Li Ang raised his eyebrows.

“I didn’t have that thought… Aside from a blessing, he didn’t fulfill his responsibilities as a father.”

Orion shook his head slightly, looking dejected.

Gods are very self-centered. Perhaps Poseidon thought that he had already given his son a blessing and fulfilled his responsibilities as a father, so what more did he need from him?

This overly harsh thinking led Orion to never really like his father.

From Orion's perspective, who lost his father at a young age, he might not hate Poseidon, but he could never forgive him.

Before Orion could finish his grieving, Leon patted him on the shoulder and said...

"Alright, now that you know what we've done, you're one of us now."

Can I quit?

Orion was a little scared. Despite his exceptional martial prowess, he was still just a hunter, and he didn't really want to do something as risky as rebellion.

"What do you think? Should we let someone who knows our plans roam outside?"

Li Ang raised a finger and shook it gently, then asked in return with a very bright smile.

"No way... How can you force people onto a pirate ship like this?"

Orion realized he had been tricked. If he hadn't been sitting next to Leon and hadn't heard those words, would he have been spared the forced joining of the rebels?

"You bunch of people are ripping us off! This is a scam, isn't it?! Absolutely!"

"No, no, no, my dear Husky Bear (the word Orion means the birth of Husky)."

Li Ang patted Orion on the shoulder, deliberately speaking in a Shaanxi-accented Greek, and interrupted his complaint with his head held high.

"We're not trying to screw over our dads."

The smile on Li Ang's face gradually darkened, like that of a demon who had tricked humans into signing a contract.

"We're just trying to scam our grandpa."

These words struck Orion like a bolt from the blue, leaving him completely stunned.

"I am so pitiful."

"Welcome to the largest anti-Olympus social group in Greece right now... Also, you should be glad you're not in Xianyang, and that your investigative tools are still useful, otherwise I would have arranged for someone to chop it up immediately. Our Qin craftsmen are excellent at castration; one cut and all the roots of trouble are gone."

Orion was about to cry.

"Alright, now the organization is giving you your first task."

Leon pointed at Artemis, the moon goddess, who was deliberately sitting away from the others.

"See that beautiful goddess? I need you to seduce her now."

“That’s impossible! She’s trying to kill me for no reason!” Orion retorted loudly.

"She'll kill you because she's already fallen in love with you; that's just a girl's way of being proud. So... good luck, handsome Greek guy. Conquering Zeus's darling is up to you."

"really?"

Orion was a little insecure.

He had heard about Artemis; how could such a proud goddess possibly fall in love with him?

"come on!"

Li Ang gave a thumbs up and flashed his teeth.

"..."

Although the mission of "being ordered to pick up girls" seemed incredibly improbable, Orion decided to give it a try anyway.

What if it succeeds?

then……

"Help! Help! Artemis is killing people!"

Amidst the lively scene of Orion being chased by Artemis, Li Ang took a large gulp of wine.

"Indeed, banquets are more fun when they're lively. Athena is right, we should find someone to keep this crazy girl in check."

[Host, you've completely gone black.]

PS1: Orion's original name was supposedly Urio, which means "born with a hiss" in ancient Greek.

In Lostbelt, the scene where Superman Bear pees during his appearance is likely an Easter egg related to the name.

There is a version of Orion's birth where Zeus, Poseidon, and Hermes visited a man named Hyrios one day.

God was pleased with the host's hospitality and decided to grant him one wish.

Hyrios said that he had no wife or children and hoped to have a son.

So the three gods spread out a cowhide, urinated into it, tied the cowhide tightly, and buried it in the ground.

Ten months later, a boy was born from the ground; this child was Orion.

This version, well... it's just... speechless. →_→

Chapter 60: We still don't know if Uncle Hai's story with 50 women is true or false.

Li Ang was right about one thing: Artemis, influenced by the Type-Moon source, did indeed develop feelings for Orion, and her irritability was more of a display of tsundere behavior.

Artemis, who had vowed to remain a virgin forever, would never admit that she could actually fall in love with a man.

But when Orion gets close to her, her body will very honestly feel a flutter.

However, most tsundere girls will only say "Urusai" a few times and flick their twin tails a couple of times.

But Artemis is the goddess of the hunt; she'd rather take action than just talk.

Therefore, Artemis, unwilling to face the fact that she truly had feelings for Orion, could only cover up her shyness by frantically shooting arrows at Orion.

"This is probably what it means to say no but your body says no."

Li Ang watched with a grin as Orion dodged and fled from the arrows.

He had already figured it out: Artemis said she wanted to kill Orion, but she didn't really mean it.

If Artemis really wanted to kill Orion, it would be a piece of cake; she wouldn't give the bear any chance to show off.

It's worth noting that in Greek mythology, the various versions of Orion's death at the hands of Artemis could fill an entire episode of "Carnival Phantasm" starring Li Ang.

“Athena is right, it’s time to find a husband for Artemis, this spoiled girl.”

Li Ang rubbed his chin as he thought to himself.

"But is it really okay for you to keep this from Athena? What if she finds out you're lying to her?"

Hercules asked, glancing sideways.

"Of course Athena wasn't completely oblivious. With all the preparations I made, it's impossible for her not to have guessed my thoughts."

Upon hearing Li Ang's words, Hercules showed a look of sudden realization.

Athena emotionally supports Leon's Plan B, but driven by her instincts as the goddess of wisdom, she subconsciously knows that overthrowing Zeus's plan is necessary.

Li Ang said softly, "It's because she still harbors some illusions about Zeus, believing that as long as the war stops and communication is done properly, Zeus can eventually be persuaded to stop. It is because of this idea that she keeps quiet about how to deal with Zeus."

Hercules narrowed his eyes and said in a tone of someone who had been through it all, "Children always have some illusions about their parents. It seems that even the goddess of wisdom is not immune to this."

"Aren't you also part of the universe..."

Li Ang, who was about to say something, stopped.

Hercules's sentiment suggests that the other person once felt the same way, only now they are disillusioned.

It seems Zeus has completely broken their hearts.

Hercules' decision to abandon living on Mount Olympus and instead choose to live in seclusion on such a small island speaks volumes.

“Li Ang, I don’t know you. But I know Athena and Chloris. They are both wise and benevolent goddesses. If you betray them…”

Hercules leaned close to Leon and warned him.

Is he unhappy because he's been making too many small moves against me?

Li Ang gave an awkward but polite smile.
