Chapter 3064 Mercury Notes (Fifty)
The context of the matter became clear.
Coming to Earth and stirring up trouble would do no good for the gods of Mount Olympus, because after all, they were ancient gods, not the shallow evil gods that had formed in recent years. In fact, they did not need any sacrifices or human faith to be powerful enough.
Zeus is the king of gods. The earth is like a large brothel to him. However, apart from establishing Amazon, he rarely interferes in the affairs of the earth. He also has strict management over other gods. Main gods like the god of war cannot come to the earth easily.
This also means that many forces on Earth have no ill feelings towards the Olympian gods. What people criticize most about the Olympian gods is Zeus' private life.
In this situation, there is no need for Poseidon to rush into the Atlantic Ocean to show off his power. Although sailors often call sea storms the wrath of Poseidon, most of them are just bad weather. Poseidon doesn't care what the little human sailors gain, whether good or bad, it has nothing to do with him.
But this time he did something surprising, which was to attack Atlantis, which is very interesting.
Atlantis did not believe in Poseidon, but Poseidon did not need their belief. Even if it was to teach the pagans a lesson, Atlantis had existed for so many years. It didn't come earlier or later, but at this critical juncture. It didn't seem right no matter how you looked at it.
If we look at this incident alone, it is nothing, but if we combine it with the continuous accidents on Mercury, it is easy to see that someone is trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Poseidon injured the future queen of Atlantis. How could Arthur just stand by and watch? In order to ensure the stability of his rule, he had to ask Mount Olympus for an explanation.
Although the members of the Justice League have never fought the ancient gods head-on, to be on the safe side they will not let Arthur face Poseidon alone. They will definitely find him a helper. Isn't the Flash coming with him?
Now, Arthur is seriously injured and Mera has to take charge of the overall situation in Atlantis. In order to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation and attacking Arthur, the Flash has to stay in the seabed and cannot leave easily. The Justice League has lost two generals at once.
Ares died in front of the portal. If he had successfully passed through the portal to Earth and showed up in Metropolis or Gotham with the same purpose as Poseidon, Bruce and Clark would definitely not have ignored it.
At that time, the Justice League will have to divide its forces and at least send a general to deal with the God of War Ares.
And there's no telling how many gods like Poseidon and Ares there are on Mount Olympus who behave strangely. If they all go down to the underworld through the portal, punching here and kicking there, even if the Justice League has ten Supermen, they won't be able to handle it.
In essence, this is still a trick of using the emperor to control the princes. Ordinary humans are too fragile and have almost no resistance to these supernatural creatures.
DC is too young, and many of its masters have not appeared on the stage of history, or are like Shazam, who have not been baptized by wind and rain and are not useful. They also lack external combat power like the mutants who are invincible in the universe. With the Olympian gods to drive the tiger to devour the wolf, the Justice League's response is bound to be stretched and embarrassed.
If this plan succeeds, the most powerful forces of the Justice League will be transferred to Earth, and Mercury will inevitably be in big trouble.
The equipment on Mercury and even Mercury itself can be discarded, but these outstanding young people are the hope for the future of the Earth. Once they are destroyed, all forces will probably be unable to recover for two or three generations.
Everyone in the Young Avengers team felt the pressure. This time the opponent was different from the ones they had encountered before. He was cunning and powerful enough, and most importantly, he knew how to hide himself.
At present, there is only one witch, Circe, who appears on the surface, but no one believes that she was the one who planned all of this. The real mastermind is hidden deeper.
But at this time, Jason said again: "But in order to achieve the goal of dispersing the Justice League's power on Mercury, we can't just send Poseidon alone. Even Poseidon and Ares combined are not enough. But now, although Poseidon has successfully descended, Ares is dead, and the other gods are missing. There is no big chaos on Earth. What's going on?"
Aisha understood. She said, "The Justice League and Professor Schiller are not vegetarians. I guess they have already taken countermeasures."
"You're not trying to say that Ares was killed by the Justice League?"
Aisha reasoned from the beginning. She said, "The power of this mastermind is stronger than we thought. We have observed Poseidon's condition with our own eyes. He is obviously abnormal."
Jason and Dick both nodded, because it was they who froze Poseidon. Theoretically, although the ice generator might impose certain restrictions on the sea god, it would not be so easy.
Poseidon is not made of clay. None of the ancient gods who can survive to this day and still hold a high position are easy to deal with. How is it possible to freeze him just by throwing two freezing devices?
What's more, something was wrong when he was fighting with the Atlantis warriors. He only used two moves in total. One was throwing the trident to hit the water surface, and the other was swinging his arms to smash it. Are these the only moves a dignified sea god can do?
It can be seen that Poseidon is in a state of madness, his mind is not very clear, and the use of his divine power is almost non-existent. It can be said that he is venting rather than fighting. This must be the work of the mastermind behind the scenes.
But then again, the fact that the mastermind could turn Poseidon into this state proves that his strength must be far beyond that of the gods of Mount Olympus.
Aisha continued, "In that case, there is no need for him to use his eldest son to attract Zeus' attention in order to get Poseidon and Ares to come down to earth. On the contrary, there are much simpler and more convenient methods."
The others thought about it and agreed. If they could even fool the God of War and the God of the Sea, who were at the top of the battle power rankings, then it wouldn't be difficult to get two people down to earth through the portal. Maybe the mastermind behind this could even bring all the gods to Earth himself.
"Oh, I see." Dick slapped his palms and said, "It is very likely that the eldest son's escape was not what the mastermind wanted, but a countermeasure on our side!"
"Think about it. Once the eldest son escapes, Zeus and Hera will quickly run away with the other gods. At least, except for the gods of war and the sea, they will have to run with Zeus and be under his supervision. In this case, they will have no chance to cause trouble."
"Once the eldest son is freed, he will most likely be led to kill a target like Ares who has the conditions to return to the mortal world and can pose a major threat to the Earth. In this case, the plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain will fail."
"Who released the eldest son?" Jason looked at Faust, and Faust immediately said, "It was Circe, the witch Circe."
"That's not right." Jason realized the problem at this time. He was concerned about child abuse cases and had heard Gordon talk about what kind of person the witch was. He said, "You said the witch Circe controlled a man?"
"What I said is true." Faust seemed to be afraid that they would not believe him. He jumped in Funa's hand and said, "A man in a black suit, wearing glasses, with some scales on his neck, holding a black umbrella..."
The expressions of Dick and the others suddenly became very interesting.
Just as Dick was about to say something, Jason spoke before him, "There's a loophole. I heard that the witch Circe hates men very much. If she had to choose someone to possess, why would she choose a man?"
Faust was also stumped by the question, and finally Toad could only jump twice on the spot and said, "Maybe she has changed her gender?"
In fact, he was not completely sure. When the man with witchcraft power broke in, Faust's mind was full of the witch Circe, and he did not observe carefully. Now thinking about it, there was indeed a problem.
The witch Circe is somewhat famous in their circle. The most famous thing about her is that she is a widow maker and hates men very much. No matter what species it is, as long as it is a male, you will have no good time if you fall into her hands.
As the saying goes, it is difficult to change one's nature. It is not like all female creatures in the world are extinct. Even if something big happened, Cersei has time to choose a female to possess. How could it be a man?
Of course Jason and Dick already knew what was going on. It was probably not the witch Circe who held the man hostage, but the man who held the witch Circe hostage.
"It seems that this is probably the method used by the Justice League to fight against the mastermind." Dick said after a brief thought: "The mastermind wants to use the gods of Mount Olympus to disrupt the Earth so that the Justice League can reduce Mercury's defenses and destroy Mercury and its reserve talents."
"The Justice League sent people to Mount Olympus, released the eldest son directly, and guided him to accurately kill Ares who wanted to go down to cause chaos, thus ruining the plan of the mastermind behind the scenes."
"What will they do next?" Jason asked a question, and at this time Funa said: "Now we are just speculating, without evidence. I think we should find the gods of Mount Olympus first. If Zeus and the others are still alive, they can tell us if there was anything unusual on Mount Olympus before."
Aisha agreed with this view. She said, "Zeus may have been caught off guard before, which allowed the mastermind to succeed. But if he is still awake now, he will surely recall many things that were wrong. Although the mastermind is very cautious, what if he really left some traces?"
Dick, the leader, looked at the toad Faust and said, "Do you know where Zeus and the others are hiding?"
"Mount Olympus is one dimension, but there is more than one dimension. If I had to say, I think they might have gone to Apollo's realm of light."
"What is that place?"
Faust sighed softly and said, "The area we are in now is actually the Pantheon. You can think of it as the White House of the United States. Usually the gods will hold ceremonies and activities here, but this is not their home. It is more like their office building."
"The twelve gods each have their own domains, and each domain represents a different element. Apollo represents light..."
"Wait, isn't Apollo the god of the sun?"
"That's a rumor," Faust said with certainty, "The sun god is Helios, and the sun chariot is also his property, while Apollo is his boss and has a wider scope of responsibility."
"Then why do you think Zeus would go to him?"
"Because he has a good temper." Faust said, "Apollo is the easiest to talk to among the twelve gods. When Zeus and Leto gave birth to him, Hera was very opposed to it. But when Apollo joined Mount Olympus, even Hera had a good relationship with him. After his persuasion, she allowed Hermes to live on Mount Olympus."
The other people immediately pictured the image of a very charming male god. Faust said, "I heard from Charon that he is Zeus' favorite son, even better than Ares. So Apollo's domain should be Zeus' first choice for refuge."
"So how do we get into his territory?"
Faust thought for a moment and said, "We really have to start with Helios, the god of the sun. The sun chariot he drives will enter the realm of light through a special gate, where the horses rest."
"Since the sun rises in the east and sets in the west as usual, it means that Helios, the god of the sun, is fine. So we just need to wait for him at this entrance, and perhaps we can follow the sun chariot and enter the realm of light together."
"Wait a minute." Dick felt his outlook on life was challenged. He said, "Isn't the sun rising in the east and setting in the west because the earth rotates and revolves around the sun? Is it scientific to pull the sun with a carriage?"
Faust said disdainfully: "You are standing on the land of Mount Olympus now, and the body of Ares, the god of war, is right next to you. You are talking to me about science?"
