Chapter 127 The Secret of Medusa

Just stepping into the temple, Perseus saw a figure kneeling in the middle of the temple, looking at the back of that figure was so familiar, taking a closer look, it wasn't exactly the old fisherman Trito who had taught himself a lot of practical techniques of catching and killing. Perseus walked forward and asked the old fisherman softly, 'Trito, have you also come to the temple to seek guidance from the goddess?" The old fisherman turned around, his old face with a calm and solemn smile, suddenly his body lit up with a faint glow, and his originally somewhat stooped figure became tall and upright. Perseus only felt a dazzle, then the old fisherman Trito had disappeared, and what appeared in front of him was a beautiful goddess with a cloak of strength and a body that shone with a faint golden aura, and that face that was different from the statue of the god on the great hall, which emphasized her identity. 'Goddess Athena!" Perseus foolishly looked at the goddess who suddenly manifested herself, although he came to the temple in order to pray for Athena's guidance, he never thought that the original god had been right by his side all along, the old fisherman who had taught himself the fighting skills called fishing, which were actually extremely practical in battle as well, was actually the incarnation of this goddess as well. Athena stepped down from the altar of the god, her gaze faintly looking towards Perseus, and suddenly swung out a fist unexpectedly, the martial arts Perseus didn't even see the trajectory of that fist before he was hit in the abdomen by a huge force, and flew backwards, heavily hitting the wall of the god's temple before collapsing on the ground. 'Perseus, so weak that you can't even withstand a single punch from me, what makes you think that you're able to fight the viciously renowned Three Sisters of Gorgon?" 'Cough ......" Perseus couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, the sharp pain spreading all over his body from his abdomen, he raised his eyes to look at Athena, in his eyes was disbelief as well as the wariness of entering a fighting state, the perseverance and stoicism therein caused Athena to reveal a wisp of a faint smile. 'Perseus, I know the purpose of your coming here, but now you are not mature enough, the three Gorgon sisters, are the daughters of the ancient goddess of the sea, Ceto, their bloodline is strong, with unparalleled power, the three sisters in the two sisters have gold feathers and brass claws, the eldest sister, Stheno, has a power that can easily tear through bronze, the second sister, Euryale, has a speed that is comparable to the speed of the wind, with sharp claws, and the second sister, Yurei Arie, has a speed that is comparable to the speed of the wind, and the sharpness of the wind. The second sister, Yuri Ellie, has a speed comparable to that of the wind, and sharp fangs, and they also have an immortal body that can not be killed by a sword. And their most favored sister Medusa, although she doesn't have an immortal body, she was born as a fae, all those who see her face will be turned into stone, how can you defeat such a monster with this frail body?" For Perseus' wariness Athena did not care, but analyzed this his current situation with him, constantly suppressing the teenager's self-confidence with her words. 'Go back, Perseus, you can take your mother and run away from the island, learn from your adoptive father, be an ordinary fisherman and live just as happily." Athena's words made Perseus fall into silence, Athena's words were not wrong, even if Danae was not willing to marry the king, with his ability, he could still take his mother far away, and continue to live in anonymity in another place. But for some reason, Athena's punch just now seemed to activate a certain organ in his body, originally the strange power in his body that was still growing steadily suddenly boiled up in an instant, a steady stream of power seemed to slowly seep out of his bone marrow, and Perseus's brain became incomparably lucid in an instant. Reason and ambition came along with it, pushing down the thoughts of fear and escape in his mind, he stood up enduring the sharp pain in his body, his strong arms looking incredibly solid as the teenager looked at the radiant goddess and slowly spoke. 'Great Goddess, I want to go and kill Medusa, and not just for my mother, the three Gorgon sisters have already killed countless fine and strong men on the earth, mothers have lost their sons, wives have lost their husbands, painfully and helplessly they have prayed to the gods countless times to no avail, and now since destiny has chosen me to go on a crusade to crush this horrible monster, although in my heart there is also fear, but for the oath that has been made, I am bound to fulfill it, even if I am broken to pieces, I am not willing to be a coward!" The teenager's words became more and more intense, his eyes also became more and more resolute, his eyes gradually glowed with a blue light, the bloodline power of the King of the Gods gradually spread out in his body, that noble quality and rationality inspired the divine power in his body, making his entire body become dazzling. '...... 'It's impossible to have a response, those three sisters acted so recklessly because their sister Medusa was Poseidon's lover. But Perseus that body radiates divine light let Athena can not help but light up, how magical, this noble quality and spiritual power, even can further stimulate the power of this teenager's body, is it a coincidence? Athena didn't say anything more, her body violently erupted with a piercing light, causing Perseus to close his eyes as well. When the light dissipated, only a golden shield was left on the ground, along with an oracle from Athena. 'Go, seek out the three sisters of the long-lived Graeae, and they will tell you the secret to slaying Medusa." Perseus picked up the shield on the ground and dropped to one knee at Athena's idol. 'Thank you for your teachings and guidance, Goddess of Wisdom and Mercy Athena." With that said, the teenager walked out of the Goddess of Wisdom's temple, not realizing Athena, who was gazing at him from behind. 'But it's so generous, such an important divine weapon as the Aigis Gold Shield is willing to lend it to him." A faint laugh resounded in the middle of the great hall, and the blonde-haired, purple-eyed goddess appeared at Athena's side. 'It's marvelous to be able to break through the limits with just your will, what is the reason for that? Is it because of the God King's bloodline? Or is it the human bloodline?" The goddess of wisdom murmured. In response to her question Hebe smiled lightly and said, 'Maybe it's both." Humans have become a marvelous paradoxical synthesis under Prometheus's planning, and Perseus, who has Zeus's bloodline, undoubtedly possesses a greater potential and growth rate than other humans, Junior, the future is promising, and if he accidentally gives birth to an evil person, then Zeus will have to have a headache. '...... Forget it, time will tell me the answer." Athena temporarily can't think to understand also simply give up the entanglement for the time being, she believes that through the observation of Perseus, she will find out the answer, the goddess looks at Hebe to reveal a light smile, 'Lend him the Aigis Shield of Gold, on the one hand, it is the protection of his safety, on the other hand, it is also to get the revelation of the Law of Wisdom." Athena's gaze looked into the distance, a cold light flashed in her eyes, 'That wisdom essence that was once tainted has also stayed out there long enough, if she is at peace, I can still keep her for a while longer, she shouldn't have stirred up with Poseidon, and for his sake, she also destroys the city-states that are under my jurisdiction and harms my people." 'Perseus, the hero bred by me, will retrieve for me the glory that is mine." When Hebe had defeated the out-of-control Pandora, she had reinvested her tainted wisdom essence into reincarnation, and that essence had been reincarnated through reincarnation to become the daughter of Pontos, the daughter of the Danger of the Sea, Ceto, and the youngest of the three Gorgon Sisters, Medusa, which was why this snake-haired siren's abilities were completely different from those of her two older sisters. Her delicate and alluring face attracted the attention of that king of the sea, who had peculiar tastes and loved beauty as well as monsters, and a demoness like Medusa, who was both beautiful and grotesque, instantly caught Poseidon's attention. Under his sweet words, Medusa was soon captured by his heart, in a certain time of heart-to-heart, Medusa happened to hear her lover talk about the sordid things between him and Athena, remembering the city Athens, which was taken away by Athena. The evil-born demoness loved to play tricks, and in order to give Poseidon a bad name, Medusa urged her two sisters, who had sharp claws and fangs and were immortal, to go to Athens to wreak havoc and mutilate human beings, and threatened to say that it was because of the goddess's inaction that led to their doom today. How could Athena, who was offended by her majesty, bear it? But as one of the twelve main gods, she didn't care to personally deal with those banshees yet, and Perseus, who had been arranged by Zeus to travel the path of training, was just able to become the spear in her hand, solving the trouble for her and letting the origin of wisdom return. 'His Highness Hebe is not watching over Her Highness Hera on the island of Samos, so he is not afraid that she will sneak out to the earth to catch the demonic beasts again?" Athena retracted her gaze and looked at Hebe beside her and teased. 'Mother Goddess took a few golden apples some time ago, the origin of the marriage has been repaired, now she is sleeping in the middle of Venus, that place is safe enough, when Mother Goddess awakens, she should be able to return to the main god rank." The backhand one had prepared in the beginning didn't seem to be useful.
