Chapter 166 The Devoured Perseus, The Battle Between Mother and Daughter
Chapter 166 The Devoured Perseus, The Battle Between Mother and Daughter
The battle ended, and everything returned to calm, with only a small bulge on the ground as proof that Perseus had been there.
A gentle breeze was blowing.
Ye Xiao removed his imperial armor, and a smile crept onto his face as he looked at the small bag in front of me.
Burghius is "dead," but this guy has a resurrection skill, though it's unclear where he'll resurrect.
In the forest behind Ye Xiao and his group, Metis, who had witnessed Ye Xiao's great power, looked at Ye Xiao thoughtfully.
After thinking for a while, he looked at a certain place not far away, then transformed into a black snake and disappeared from the spot.
Looks like they went to pick up takeout.
Sensing that Metis had left, Ye Xiao stretched and said, "All done. I'll follow them later."
Tony and Athena came to Ye Xiao's side.
Looking at the battle before him, Tony couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of my best friend, he has dealt with the disobedient god Perseus so quickly."
Ye Xiao smiled and said casually, "It's alright, but Burghius isn't dead yet, but he's not far from it."
Tony was a little puzzled by Ye Xiao's words, but he quickly put them aside.
After a brief chat, Tony left alone.
Tony also postponed his original plan to fight Ye Xiao.
He just enjoys fighting, not because he's mindless. As long as Ye Xiao is wearing that cool golden armor, he definitely can't beat that guy.
So I still need to train!
As Tony left, Ye Xiao turned to look at Athena.
"What do my servants have to offer me, who has triumphed over the gods?"
"Indeed, a beautiful woman's blessing is quite fitting for a hero who defeats evil."
As she spoke, Athena stepped forward, looked around Ye Xiao's neck, and then kissed him.
... ... ... ...
Outside a site of ruins.
As a dazzling light converged.
Burghius appeared there, leaning against the wall, feeling his broken body, blood slowly dripping down the hem of his clothes.
This is Perseus's resurrection ability, "The Sun," which can only be used once per day.
"They were completely powerless to fight back; this situation never happened even in the mythical era when I was in it."
"Just you wait! You just wait!"
"This isn't over yet. Ye Xiao, our battle isn't over until I gain full power!!"
Burghius said through gritted teeth.
He walked slowly, leaning against the wall. His immediate priority was to recover from his injuries and then replenish all his strength.
At this moment, Burghius paused.
A phantom behind him transformed into a human form.
He turned around, and there stood a black version of Athena behind him.
Perseus looked at Metis with a serious expression.
Sensing the aura emanating from the girl before him, Burghius knew who the guy in front of him was, but he still asked deliberately.
"Who...who are you?!"
"I am..."
Before Metis could finish speaking, Perseus drew his sword and slashed at him.
shuh~
The two crossed paths.
Perseus's arms were cleanly severed.
Behind him, Metis stood still, holding a blood-dripping scythe.
"I am a serpent, a serpent that harms heaven—Metis!"
"O hero who slays the snake, become nourishment for me."
As he spoke, Metis turned to one side, then transformed into a giant serpent, opening its blood-red maw and swallowing him whole.
After Metis devoured Perseus, his body swelled slightly, and his power increased rapidly.
She transformed back into her teenage form.
"My strength has recovered somewhat... but I need more... more 'steel'... I need more 'steel'."
"Once everything is gathered, my dearest daughter Athena, become one with your mother..."
Metis spoke, his eyes gleaming with greed.
My own daughter, my own strength.
Once you've become your complete self, then go find that interesting god-killer, devour him, then devour everything, and lead this world to destruction.
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by.
Metis seemed to sense something and turned around to look.
Suddenly, Athena and Ye Xiao appeared behind him.
Ah, the wind, it really is so convenient.
Ye Xiao looked at the two people who were exactly the same except for their color and nodded in satisfaction.
Then he looked down at the ground.
All that could be seen was a pool of blood and the severed arm of Herpal, who was holding Burghius's sword.
It looks like it's already been swallowed up.
What a pitiful fellow.
"Athena, and the god-killer."
Metis looked at the two of them, somewhat annoyed. He had been so careful. Then Metis smiled and said, "Well, the plan has to be interrupted... In that case, let's take back the power first."
"So...Athena, return to your mother's body, and together we will turn this world into darkness, eternal darkness."
Athena remained expressionless as she listened to Metis's words.
She is thinking.
"Indeed, that's a great idea."
"It really was me..."
"But I refuse!"
As Athena finished speaking, Metis paused for a moment, then burst into maniacal laughter.
As expected... it just doesn't make sense.
Since that's the case...
Then... I have no choice but to forcibly absorb my beloved daughter!
"Athena! Return to your mother's embrace!!"
As he spoke, Metis reached out to the side, and then Hepar began to vibrate before flying into Metis's hand and twisting.
Finally, it transformed into a crimson-black scythe.
"Athena, do you need my help?"
"My lord, please give me a weapon."
Ye Xiao smiled slightly, and a flash of light appeared in his hand as the Sword of Excalibur appeared.
"then."
He threw the sword at Athena.
Athena held Excalibur, a smile playing on her lips, and stroked the blade.
"Star Sword, please, change your form."
As he spoke, the Excalibur in his hand began to twist, and then, like Hepar, it transformed into a scythe.
The opposite of the color of Metis.
The pale gold sickle gleamed with golden light.
Metis looked at the scythe in Athena's hand, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
That's really good "steel".
Once it absorbs Athena, it will belong to me.
"Come, my delicious daughter!"
Having said that, she brandished her crimson-black scythe and slashed at Athena with fierce momentum.
Athena's lips curled into a smile.
Should I avoid her sharp edge?
He then charged forward, also wielding a sickle.
The two scythes collided fiercely in the air, scattering dazzling sparks.
Ye Xiao watched quietly from the side.
After Athena is defeated, it will be easier for him to intervene.
In the sky.
The black light and starlight collided continuously.
"Your mother is still your mother," Metis thought, as a surge of violent power erupted within him.
Metis, wielding a scythe and with madness in his eyes, relentlessly slashed at Athena.
Athena went to greet them as well.
