I'm tied to Athena.
Page 56
"Of course, if you can tell me why you are looking for the dark faction, I wouldn't mind introducing you to it."
"I think you should consider my suggestion. You don't know when you can get another killing stone."
Standing up all of a sudden, Ishtar lost her previous laziness, her purple eyes fixed on Athena, while the petite silver-haired goddess remained relaxed and at ease.
"How did you know about the Killing Stone?"
The goddess of beauty gnashed her teeth, her eyes filled with the flame of shock and anger.
"A certain unreliable fellow 'accidentally' got drunk, and I happened to be passing by and 'accidentally' heard it." The goddess of wisdom smiled at ease, "Now, you can consider my proposal."
"That bastard with no professional ethics!" Ishtar cursed and sat back on the velvet sofa. "Athena, you are the second woman who makes me so upset!"
"From my personal point of view, I don't want to be remembered by you." Ignoring Ista's words, "Then, I can consider that the deal is done, right?"
"Tammuz!" Ishtar called out to the young man outside the door. The handsome young man immediately opened the door and came in. Then, the goddess gave a cold order, "Bring the map of the passage here!"
The young man took the order and turned to leave. Not long after, he came back with a box.
Ista took the wooden box and placed it on the coffee table. "Inside this is everything I know."
Athena reached for the box but was stopped by Ishtar, "Where's what I want!"
"Haven't I already told you? The Killing Stone."
"Are you blackmailing me?!" Ishtar's expression twisted, "Tammuz!"
The young man, whose eyes had long become sharp, pulled out the dagger worn at his waist, but the next moment, a pitch-black sickle was placed on his neck.
"Don't move, this thing is very dangerous." Li Yun stood behind Tammuz with a smile. The cold blade seemed to tell him that if he did anything dangerous, his head would say goodbye to his body.
"Athena!!!" Ishtar's voice rose several tones. However, Athena took the wooden box from her hand with an indifferent smile. She opened it in front of Ishtar, and after making sure there was no problem, she let Li Yun let go of Tammuz.
"It's a pleasure working with you, Ishtar."
With a brisk tone, Athena took Li Yun out of the luxurious palace.
On the street, thinking of Ista's expression as if he wanted to eat Athena, Li Yun couldn't help but want to laugh, "Ista will probably be pissed off by you."
"This transaction is not only not a loss for her, but a profit." Athena handed the box to Li Yun casually, "Just by paying for the news of her partners, she can get her own peace of mind. Isn't this a good deal?"
"If she had agreed to your request in the first place, she would have earned more."
Originally, Athena was very sincere in making a deal, and she had thought of several strategies that would allow Ishtar to gain an advantage over Freya, but Ishtar's performance and answers made her very dissatisfied.
So, there is no more strategy or anything like that.
"Damn Athena!!" Standing by the window, watching the goddess and her family members leaving, Ishtar's face was full of unwillingness.
She was not a magnanimous god to begin with. She was jealous of the goddess Freya who was surrounded by other gods and tried every means to be her enemy. How could such a person just laugh it off after suffering such a loss?
"That little brat just now..." As if she had noticed something, Ista's eyes fell on the young man next to the goddess. She exhaled smoke from her lips and made a mocking sound.
Then, he smiled like a beast.
"Okay, I'll sleep with that brat of hers!"
Li Yun, who was unaware that he had been targeted, accompanied his main god back home, and then took out the wooden box he got from Ishtar.
"First, let me take a look at this map..." Li Yun took out the map of the artificial maze first. However, after looking at it carefully, there was only one gate depicted on this map - the gate connecting to Fengyue Street.
But this is normal. The dark faction cannot be stupid enough to hand over the map of the entire maze to Ishtar.
And in the final analysis, Ishtar and they are just in a cooperative relationship, both sides get what they need and will never cross the line.
"There is only one entrance... But that's OK, it saves me from going to Fengyue Street again." After putting the map away, Li Yun asked Athena, "Did you find anything over there?"
Athena frowned as if she had discovered some bad news. She glanced at Li Yun who was puzzled and explained, "The dark faction now has only one main god - the god of death...Thanatos."
"Thanatos?" Li Yun was stunned. He had heard of the name from Athena's mouth. He was the embodiment of death in legend, the son of the goddess of night, Nyx and Knox, and the twin brother of the god of sleep, Hypnos. He was called the elder brother of sleep and the son of night.
Of course, none of this is important. What’s important is his identity—the ancient Greek god of death!
That’s right, he is the god of death in ancient Greek mythology and one of the gods of the underworld.
According to normal mythology, he is a god serving Hades, the god of the underworld, but according to the myth of the godslayer, he is a god serving Athena.
"What's your impression of him?" Li Yun couldn't help but ask.
"...I don't have a particularly deep impression. I, the concubine in this world, have not had much contact with that man." Athena shook her head, her expression not relaxing, "But I have heard about him."
"He is an extremely pure god. When he was in heaven, he was famous for his seriousness."
"He is responsible for helping the souls of the people in the lower world return to heaven after death and gain new life. Every time he sees a filthy soul being cleansed, he gets great satisfaction."
"However, when the gods descended to the underworld and the big hole in the underground city was sealed, the death rate of the people in the underworld immediately dropped, which made him feel dissatisfied." Athena whispered softly, "It is normal for him to choose to establish a dark faction in order to return the world to ancient times."
"Back then, many factions headed by the Guild wiped out countless dark factions. Only he was lucky enough to escape and became the only surviving main god among the dark factions."
"For the unfinished purpose, and to return the world to chaos. Over the years, he has been developing silently by himself, and has gradually strengthened the dark faction."
"Wait, he's the only one in the dark faction? Where's Enyo?" Li Yun suddenly noticed a problem. Isn't Enyo the leader of the dark faction? Or is Thanatos Enyo?
"Haven't you figured it out yet?" Athena looked at Li Yun with disdain, "We are now facing three forces, not two!"
"The dark faction led by Thanatos, the mysterious force led by Enyo, and the weird force led by the filthy fairy."
"These three forces have the common goal of destroying Orario, so they gathered together. The three forces rely on and assist each other to carry out multi-line control."
"As for the Daedalus clan who built the artificial maze, it was simply because of money." Athena calmly sorted out the current information for Li Yun: "Because the guild would never allow the Daedalus clan to build an artificial maze, they could only hide it from everyone and build it secretly."
"But building such a maze requires a lot of money. Coincidentally, the three forces can meet the needs of the Daedalus family, so the alliance was formed."
"So that's how it is. In order to build a perfect maze, the Daedalus clan relied on three forces, and the three forces used the artificial maze as their base to carry out activities..." Li Yun immediately understood, "But where did they get the funds?"
"Human trafficking, monster trafficking, burning, killing and looting... there are many ways to get funds." Athena handed the information in her hand to Li Yun, "This is a record of the transactions between the Istar family and the dark faction."
Li Yun took the information and read it carefully. Then, his expression changed!
There was a deep shock and anger in his dark pupils. The name and price of the product marked on it made his face turn pale, "This is..."
The low voice was filled with indescribable anger. It was the first time that Li Yun clearly understood his anger. It was also the first time that he had a clear intention to kill a member of his clan.
"This is a transaction between Ishtar and Thanatos. The main goods traded... are mainly young girls, but there are also orcs, fairies, humans, dwarfs... To put it simply, it's human trafficking." Athena's voice was very soft, as if she didn't want to irritate the black-haired boy.
That's right, the deal between Istar and Thanatos is human trafficking. Istar gets enough girls from Thanatos, and Thanatos gets enough money from Istar...
A long time ago, people said that most of the girls in Fengyue Street were trafficked. Because of this rumor, the guild intervened in the investigation, but the experienced Ishtar concealed the truth from the guild time and time again... Over time, this rumor just became a rumor.
But now...this information confirms the rumor.
"Athena, can you shift your target a little bit?" Li Yun closed his eyes and asked softly.
"Do you want to take action against the Istar clan?" Athena understood Li Yun's thoughts, and could also feel the storm hidden beneath his calm appearance.
"Sorry, I can't just leave it alone." This matter could actually be handed over to the guild to handle, but... Li Yun clenched his fists tightly, unable to forgive the bastard who trafficked in people.
Chapter 128: Athena's Familia, the War Begins
Today, this place is still filled with laughter and joy.
A paradise for many gods and male adventurers, where they indulge in transactions of money and bodies, spending money and engaging in physical pleasures selflessly.
In the eyes of the men, they and the women here are in a transactional relationship, but in the eyes of the women here, they are nothing more than prey.
The prostitutes who were ordered by the Lord Ishtar seduced men, tempted them, and hunted down any male creatures they liked, obtaining money, information, rewards, and even the love of men from them.
The ancient capital of decadence and corruption is still filled with singing and dancing today.
On a building far away in the fourth area, the hunter hidden in the darkness slowly bared his fangs.
In the Red Street, prostitutes gather around men with sweet smiles, and use sweet words to squeeze money and information from the boys, while enjoying the men's bodies.
Yes, Red Mansion is more of a paradise for prostitutes than a paradise for men.
Men enjoy their bodies, and they also enjoy men's bodies. This is their exclusive hunting ground.
They are hunters and men are the prey!
"Hey, young man, do you want some?" A fairy whore with fair skin like snow approached the black-haired boy. The wide-slit white dress exposed her slender legs and most of her plump breasts were exposed. She was surrounded by an enchanting aura that was completely different from that of a normal fairy.
The boy ignored him and walked quietly on the busy street.
"That kid... is so handsome, he's my type."
"Isn't this a child from Athena's family? I didn't expect him to come here... I wonder what the goddess Athena's expression would be if she knew about this."
"I heard that Goddess Athena and Lord Ishtar had a quarrel today... Should we go?" At the end of the narrow road, a group of Amazon prostitutes appeared out of nowhere. They stared at the young man who was alone with passionate eyes, as if they were hunting prey.
"Boom!!!" The next moment the prostitutes saw that the black-haired boy snatched away a girl with a sad face who was unwilling to be a prostitute, and raised his sickle - and began to destroy!
Under the shining moon, painful cries were heard from the ancient capital ruled by the ** Queen.
Flames exploded, with the hot air of sparks slapping his cheeks, as the black-haired boy held a sickle and strolled quietly on the street.
Although it was unclear what happened, the fighting whores obviously did not need to find out what happened - the black-haired boy was attacking their base camp!
Countless fighting prostitutes came from all directions, holding different weapons, magic swords, magic staffs, daggers, and big swords, relying on magic and martial arts, trying to stop the young man.
However, the pitch-black sickle easily tore through their defenses. The black-haired boy was like a fierce hunter, with bright eyes illuminated by the flames, staring only at his prey - the Lord God, Ishtar!
As they watched the streets gradually turn red, the prostitutes who were defeated one after another trembled and whispered, "Why... are they so strong!?"
"Is it really okay to let the child go alone?" Under the dark night sky, Ai Lei looked up. The sky, half of which was dyed red by flames, was filled with wailing and cursing.
The war has begun. It may be laughable, but the Athena Familia, which only has one member, has declared war on the Ishtar Faction, one of the largest factions in the Labyrinth City!
"If I let that child go alone, wouldn't it be redundant for me to come here?" The silver-haired goddess took her steps and stepped into the city of ** again. "This time, let me play the breeze in front of that child."
"Where did this wild guy come from? How dare you act so presumptuously in my territory!" A shaking voice rang out, and a whistling wind suppressed the flames. A female giant over two meters tall appeared in front of Li Yun.
Under the red and black clothes similar to hunting clothes, his short arms and legs, which were as thin as muscles, were exposed, making him look like a whole body.
Especially the big face, the moving eyes and the gaping mouth, it looks like a toad.
"This is... the smell of a young man!" The monster-like female giant laughed, just like the evil spirit in a horror movie... No, it's even scarier than in a horror movie... There is such a weirdo in the Ishtar clan, which makes people want to sigh.
"Haha! What a handsome boy, haha, for the sake of your face, I won't kill you. I'm going to capture you and have some fun with you..."
The last scene that remained in the giantess's mind was the sickle that cut through the darkness. The black-haired boy walked past her quietly, and his soft whispers drifted in the air with the wind.
"Get out of the way."
Ista had heard about the attack, and she went to the balcony overlooking the entire ** city, watching the dancing sparks spread to the entire Fengyue Street.
He was the king of the city of lust, and his faction was the famous Ista clan in Orario. Who was he? Who was he?
How dare they pick on one of the most powerful factions in the city in such an unreasonable way!
Is that person a fool? Is that person a fool?
Ishtar, who was furious with Athena this morning, cursed loudly, but the next second, her face turned pale, "Could it be!?"
Screams and painful wails were heard alternately, and the moonlight and the magic stone light illuminated the faction emblem carved with half man and half snake and worn on the boy's chest.
This was a devastation, and any fighting whore who dared to approach him would be beaten by him until she could no longer fight.
No one could stop him, and the members of the clan that Ishtar was so proud of could do nothing but hide in the corner and tremble.
In this one-sided battle, the prostitutes of the combatants screamed and fled in all directions. They rushed out of the brothels and rushed to seek shelter, while many terrified male customers could only watch this scene.
The guild headquarters located in the northwest of Fengyue Street was the first to notice the commotion. The guild members rushed out of the headquarters and stood blankly in the guild's front yard, looking at the red sky in the southeast of the city that was scorched by a large amount of sparks.
The gods living in Orario also looked up at the southeast sky that seemed to be burning.
Some people watched from their headquarters, while others climbed to the top of the towering roofs.
Many gods, young and old, men and women, from downtown areas, industrial areas, and stock exchanges witnessed the scene.
"Who on earth would actually attack the Istar clan?" Everyone was confused and murmured to themselves.
Like the other gods, the scarlet goddess climbed to the top of her family's tower and watched the burning sky, "Dear Athena...
PS: The author thought about it and decided to update five times a day, and release the last update for free. There is no problem with that.
Chapter 129: Battle Goddess Athena
The black hair was blown by the hot wind of the battlefield, and the sound of metal clashing was endless. With an unshakable momentum, Li Yun came to the front of the Goddess' Palace.
In the open front yard, he seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.
Those black eyes captured the brown goddess looking down at them from the top balcony.
The goddess of beauty looked ashen as she made eagle-like eye contact with the other person.
