I'm tied to Athena.

"That's really ironic. As the God of Death, he would actually stand on the side of humans."

"Humans? Don't get me wrong. My opinion of humans has never changed from the beginning to the end." The silver-haired goddess smiled and took a step forward quietly. "The person I helped was not a human, but a 'person' named Li Yun."

"I see, so it's not against all of humanity, but against a single 'certain' person?" Quetzal smiled more and more happily. "In this era, I can also fight against the Snake Goddess who is of the same origin as me. I am getting more and more excited."

"You're excited too, right?"

Athena is the goddess of war, and although Quetzalcoatl is not called a goddess of war, she is also a goddess related to war. If you ignore their appearance and only look at their power, Quetzalcoatl and Athena are more than 70% similar.

The same supreme god, the same snake goddess, the same war faction!

"Let's fight to the last moment!"

Athena and Quetzal took action, and their actions seemed to be the signal to start a war. The two groups of enemies, Bashum and Anna, the leopard man, and Kingu and Ishtar, also began to fight.

In front of the temple outside the city of Eri, in the vast plain area, the battle between gods and gods, monsters and gods, has completely begun. The brilliant and gorgeous terrorist attacks bloomed in the sky like fireworks, and Li Yun stood on the ground and looked at the three battlefields.

If you must say, Li Yun and his team are in a disadvantageous position.

Jin Gu's Heavenly Chains naturally restrain Ishtar. Bashum, as a top-level monster comparable to a god, is also enough to suppress Anna and Leopard Man. As for Quetzal and Athena...

To be honest, this is probably the group with the biggest gap. Although Athena is not weaker than Quetzal, it is precisely because of the similar strength that the attribute advantage becomes extremely important.

The sun naturally restrains darkness!

"Excuse me...who are you?" While Li Yun was looking at the three battlefields, the two Uruks who were knocked to the ground by Quetzal also got up. They came to Li Yun with a hint of doubt in their eyes.

"As you can see, we are now Quetzal's enemies." Li Yun set his sights on the two servants with serious injuries. "Are you the servants summoned by King Gilgamesh?"

"Do you know King Gilgamesh..." The white-haired man was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes, we are the servants summoned by King Gilgamesh. We came here to explore the jungle under the king's order, but we didn't expect..."

"Sorry, I'm being a bit self-centered. My name is Amakusa Shiro Tokisada, and this is my friend Fuma Kotaro."

"Hello."

Li Yun, who had already guessed the identities of the two, was not too surprised. However, he was a little surprised that the servants summoned by Gilgamesh would be Amakusa Shiro Tokisada and Fuma Kotaro.

He remembered that Gilgamesh summoned seven servants to deal with this disaster, but he only remembered Merlin, Entou, and Niu Niu Wan...bah, it was Ushiwakamaru, Benkei, and Tomoe Gozen.

"Li Yun." After a brief acquaintance, Li Yun no longer cared about their affairs. He now needed to find a way to defeat Quetzal. The battle between the two sides was launched, and he was the only one who could establish the situation.

"Although I'm not sure about your purpose, I guess from the conversation just now...you want to convince the goddess, right?" Tiancao looked at Liyun hesitantly, "If that's the case, I advise you not to waste your energy. That goddess...can't be convinced."

"why?"

"That goddess... loves humans. Humans are the value of her existence." Amakusa had a wry smile on her face, "But maybe it's cultural difference, her love in our eyes... is 'evil'!"

"Her survival value is humanity, but now she intends to destroy humanity with her own hands... It's a very contradictory proposition, right? But in fact, this proposition is not untenable."

"Her survival value does not refer to 'interest', but to the direction in which she cannot survive if she does not do this - she cannot survive if she does not play with humans! She is such a god."

"I believe you have seen that although we are servants, we can only be defeated in front of that goddess. To be honest, Lady Amakusa and I have fought with all our strength, but we still cannot make her take us seriously." Fuma Kotaro responded to Amakusa's words.

"We can neither escape nor win. We are like ants in the goddess's hand. No matter what we do, we cannot see hope."

"And the goddess with overwhelming power did not kill us directly. She fully exerted her 'kindness' and gave us the freedom to escape and fight."

"But there is no safety or security in our escape and fight..."

Finally, Amakusa expressed his own judgment, "The goddess is protecting humans. Probably in order to let humans survive this disaster, she has to abandon some humans and focus on protecting the people in her own territory."

"But the humans under her protection do not feel safe...If you want to make a metaphor, they are like pets in captivity."

"Then do you have any solutions?" Li Yun asked after quietly listening to Amakusa and Fuma Kotaro finish their story.

"That god doesn't belong to Mesopotamia. She shouldn't have the highest divinity here... But the strength she possesses now is undoubtedly at the level of a genuine God King. In other words, she built a temple to worship her."

"And in order to establish a temple, we must place something that can serve as a symbol. That is, an item that represents the legend of the Sun Goddess."

Amakusa pointed to the huge temple behind the battlefield and said, "The top of that temple exudes very powerful magic. If I'm not mistaken, something that symbolizes the legend of the goddess is placed on it. As long as we destroy that thing, the power of the goddess will be weakened, and we will have hope of winning."

"If possible, my suggestion is to leave here."

"The fake Enkidu and Bashuam can't stay here forever. As long as we wait until they leave, we will be able to destroy the temple and eliminate the evil god." Fuma Kotaro suggested.

"Evil God..." Li Yun smiled, "Thank you for your suggestion, I know what to do.

Chapter 179 Li Yun: Watch and learn carefully, how to capture a goddess

"What are you going to do?"

Under the surprised gazes of Amakusa and Fuma Kotaro, Li Yun walked towards the battlefield.

"Pull over the Sun Goddess."

"Oh my, I didn't expect that after knowing my characteristics, you would still try to win me over... What should I do, I suddenly like you a little." Quetzal, who was fighting with Athena, forced Athena back, and then stood in front of Li Yun.

"What do you want to do? Shatter the Sunstone? I can tell you, the one placed on the temple is the Sunstone."

The Sun Stone, also known as the Solar Calendar, is a huge stone used by the ancient Aztecs to show the world's past, present, and future.

"This is my sister's second treasure. As long as you use this treasure, you can transform into the sun. Although this goddess is as powerful as my sister, her natural attribute restraint prevents her from giving my sister a fatal blow."

"On the contrary, if I wish, I can use this treasure to burn you to ashes."

“How dare you call yourself a sister in front of my child!” The silver-haired goddess waved her sickle to force Quetzal back. “You can try to see if your treasure can burn away my darkness!”

"Hmm... I don't dislike goddesses who show off in front of the children they like, but seriously, if I use my second Noble Phantasm, everyone here will be burned to ashes."

Although Quetzal was still smiling, her tone was more serious than ever.

Yes, she was serious. With the Sunstone, she was fully capable of burning everyone present to ashes. The only ones who could possibly survive were probably Athena and Kingo.

"I know." Li Yun patted Athena's shoulder and gave her a reassuring look. Then he looked past Athena and faced Quetzal. "That's why I came."

"I will be your opponent from now on."

"Eh, eh? Are you serious?" Not only Quetzal, but even Athena was frightened by these words.

Li Yunlun's current strength is probably at the same level as Anna...maybe even weaker than Anna. This is a realm he can only reach after using the power of the Gorgon Stone. Without the Gorgon Stone, he is just an ordinary person with a stronger body and can never be a match for Quetzal.

"Yeah, seriously."

"Wahaha, have you finally realized it?" The leopard man appeared beside Li Yun at some point, "You should let Kukul see not the strength of a servant, but the determination of a human being, meow."

A pitch-black sickle appeared in Li Yun's palm. He smiled, "It's not the determination of mankind, but my determination. I'm not fighting for mankind. Saving the world is just a matter of convenience."

"It may sound arrogant to say this, but it doesn't matter. I just need to show everything I have."

"You are so stubborn." Athena sighed, "Since this is your decision, I have nothing to say. Just do what you think is right."

"I'll be back soon."

"Eh...are you really going to fight me? Even your sister won't show you mercy." Not only will he not show mercy, Quetzal even showed more courage than when he fought Athena.

"You still have one more chance. As long as you step down, I can still play with you guys."

What answered Quetzal was a pitch-black sickle. He took away all the power of the Gorgon Stone from Athena and swept across the distance between them, launching the first attack.

But Quezal's weapon arrived first, and it smashed Li Yun's sickle and hit him...

"Boom!!!"

The black-haired man's body flew backwards like a cannonball and hit the towering tree behind him hard.

With just one blow, Li Yun felt like his internal organs were about to break. The piercing pain came from every corner of his body, accusing his brain of wanting to continue moving.

Li Yun relied on his perseverance to stand up from the ground, and then he stepped on his feet, flew into the air, and turned into a meteor and rushed towards Quetzal.

The sickle and weapon collided, and the slender legs turned into steel whips and kicked Quetzal hard, but were broken by the sun goddess's leg.

"You must always be on the defensive. Only by defending well can you ensure your own safety. A bold attack shows that you have not yet grasped the true essence of wrestling!" Quetzal, who had used exquisite skills to knock the sickle out of Li Yun's hand, also threw away the weapon in his hand, turned over and came behind Li Yun, and lifted up the kneeling body with his hands from under his armpits.

"Try this trick, sister!"

There was a rumbling sound that shook the earth, and Li Yun was thrown hard by Quetzal using wrestling techniques - he picked him up from behind and used the arch bridge posture to make his opponent fall to the ground headfirst!

Li Yun's mind went blank for a moment after being hit hard, and his dark pupils lost their original brilliance. What should he do, why was he here, why was he injured... He suddenly became confused...

But these thoughts were fleeting, and the dull black pupils became bright again.

He grabbed Quetzal's wrist with his backhand, trying to use the opportunity to break free. But Quetzal obviously thought more than he did. Seeing that Li Yun could still stand up after such an attack, she immediately moved and turned over, kicking Li Yun's waist with her slender long legs, kicking him directly away.

The gap in strength is too big, really too big... How could Li Yun, who only has part of the divine power and is not even a god, fight against Quetzal, who is at the god king level? Even if Quetzal did not show mercy, the first attack would be enough to kill him in seconds.

"This should calm the kid down for a while." Quetzal clapped his hands and turned his attention to Athena again. "Okay, let's continue our fight."

"What nonsense are you talking about? The kid hasn't lost yet."

"How is that possible? It's already pretty good that he didn't fall down after being hit by my wrestling skills. At least it's the first time I've seen such a human being. But this time I broke his bones. It's impossible for him to stand up against the human body structure..."

As if in response to Athena's words, when Quetzal made his rebuttal, a staggering figure stood up again in the smoke and dust.

"This...I did break his bones, he shouldn't be able to stand up again." Because one of the keys to wrestling techniques is the mastery of human body parts, Quetzal knows very well how to make a person fall down completely.

And she did exactly that... She broke a leg and shattered many bones inside her body. He should feel excruciating pain every time he moves. Why...

Chapter 180 Congratulations on recruiting the Sun Goddess Quetzal

It hurts, it really hurts. It's like needles piercing every inch of skin. The excruciating pain makes every bone and every cell of Li Yun protest - lie down, don't move.

Although he had adventures in the dungeon, Li Yun was actually just an ordinary person who had gained power for less than a year.

Living in modern society, without ever experiencing hardship or training, what kind of awareness could he have after only less than a year of training?

When Li Yun came here, he had thought about what it meant to gamble on the enlightenment of the soul?

Does it mean to convey your wishes to Quetzal, so that she will change her mind and become your partner?

There are only two ways to change Quetzal's mind: one is to persuade him, and the other is to persuade him after beating him.

But the leopard man said that language cannot convince Quetzal. Through the conversations with Amakusa and Fuma Kotaro, Li Yun also truly felt Quetzal's extreme self-centeredness - she is a goddess who chooses to "love" humans in her own way.

This is why spoken language seems pale and powerless.

There is only one way to make Quetzal change his mind - action!

Refute her actions with actions, question her soul with your soul!

Only by demonstrating your courage and determination through actions in front of her can you shake Quetzal's extreme ego!

Only humans can make the goddess change, and only human souls can shake the goddess's will.

In other words, this war was not based on strength from the beginning. The collision of Li Yun and Quetzal's souls was the key to determining the outcome!

Realizing this, Li Yun chose to take a gamble.

He didn't know what cry his soul could make, nor did he know what he could do for Ai Lei, but... just a broken leg and cracked bones was like asking him to lie down, which was too much of an insult to him!

'I will change her future!'

With this belief, he stood up again.

"This kid...what on earth makes him persist to this extent? He is willing to risk his life just for one person. Is he a fool? He must be a fool!" Quetzal shouted, and his smiling face finally showed shock and emotion.

The belief that it was not for all mankind or all human history, but for "a certain person" filled Li Yun's soul and was conveyed to Quetzal through his actions.

"In that case, sister has no choice but to respond to your enlightenment!" Quetzal put down the weapon in his hand, with a cold, dark and terrifying expression on his face, and walked straight towards Li Yun.

"Hey, is everything okay?" Ishtar tightened the arrow in her hand. Although she had given it to Li Yun, in the current situation, Li Yun's awareness did not impress Quetzal at all.

"It's the child's victory." In contrast to Ishtar's nervousness, Athena laughed lightly. Only the Snake Goddess could understand the Snake Goddess. This war was Li Yun's victory!

Under everyone's gaze, Quetzal walked up to Li Yun and placed his slender arm on his chest.

Immediately afterwards, the surging source of life flowed into Li Yun's body along the slender palm, repairing the injuries that had just been caused by her brute force.

"This is the first time I've seen someone as unreasonable as you. You're too much of a fool. It's ok for a human body to bear so many attacks from me, but you chose to stand up and face me even though you knew that your life would be in danger if you continued to move... Are humans so conscious nowadays?"

The cold expression disappeared, replaced by a doting smile, "Can you tell me why you did that? If I had hit you harder, you would have been dead."

"If you want to kill me, I have no hope from the beginning. And I believe that you will not kill me." A smile appeared on the boy's pale face, "You like humans the most."

"!!!"

The infatuated smile on the goddess' face became brighter and brighter, "Well, I like Li Yun the most! Sister, I am so glad that I didn't join the goddess alliance now."

"You won. You are the first human to deny the goddess' decision and defeat her. This is the first time that I have lost so miserably."

"Quetzalcoatl, the South American goddess, will use this power for you from now on."

"Goddess Quetzalcoatl, are you going to forget the mission of being summoned here? Don't forget who summoned you and what responsibilities you shoulder!" In the atmosphere that seemed to be about to end, Jin Gu jumped out again.

"Humanity has no future. Even if you stand on the side of humanity now, it will only delay humanity's defeat!"
