Obviously, this was not an easy thing to understand. Maybe it was just the child's hysteria. Hermes thought, "But if this is just a silly child, why did Pluto take Joe as his adopted son?"
This question gave rise to countless doubts in Hermes' heart. Based on his intuition, he subconsciously believed that every word Joe said was true.
But … the bad big sister? Mr. Smith? Mr. Death?
Mr. Death must be talking about Pluto. Did Pluto personally come to the human world to bring this child to the Underworld? Is there anything special about this child?
More and more questions spurred Hermes to uncover the truth behind this. Ever since Hermes seized Mount Olympus from the second King of Gods, his uncle, who had become Hades, seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with this.
"I want to see what secrets you have …" Hermes looked directly into Joe's eyes.
This suddenly made Joe feel dizzy, and then his consciousness became empty. He seemed to have lost the consciousness of his body, and his face became dull in an instant.
"Child, come to my side. Tell me what else Pluto said to you," Hermes whispered in Joe's ear at this time.
But the messenger from Mount Olympus probably did not expect that the strange child in front of him had been known long ago. He did not even hide anything.
And what he did at this time violated some of the restrictions imposed by Pluto when he decided to take Joe as his adopted son. At this time, a shadow slowly emerged behind Joe.
Joe was still in a daze, but Hermes' expression changed slightly. Accompanied by the emotion of the shadow, it was the shadow of Pluto!
The dense power of death surged towards Hermes from all directions … The power of this power of death was so strong that it even made Hermes think that he might very well die in the underworld. He had the protection of the Divine King on him, but at this moment, the power of death was directly corroding his body. The lightning protection of the Divine King was instantly destroyed!
"Has the power of Pluto surpassed …" Hermes gasped, and his face was full of disbelief. "How is this possible?"
No, I can't wait to bring Persephone back to the surface. I must bring this information back to Mount Olympus!
Hermes didn't hesitate at all, nor did he have any intention of resisting the Shadow of the Underworld King. The wings on his Soaring Wing Boots flapped slightly, and he rushed into the sky of the Underworld.
Unexpectedly, the phantom of the King of Hell behind Joe suddenly reached out and grabbed Hermes, who was high up in the sky, by a large hand, and slammed him down to the ground!
The impact produced a loud sound, and the ground collapsed … Hermes, who was in the center, not only vomited blood, his consciousness also became blurry — his body couldn't withstand such a throw!
Hermes, whose heart was in turmoil, once again had a horrifying thought. The power of Hades might have really surpassed that of the master of Mount Olympus … He had been hiding this power in the underworld for so many years!
At this time, under the cover of the phantom of the King of Hell, Joe slowly floated to Hermes's side … looking down!
Hermes knew that the Nether King was observing him through the shadow, so he forced out a seemingly relaxed smile. "Nether King … My uncle, may I ask what I have done to anger you? I'm really sorry, maybe I haven't been to the Underworld for too long, so I forgot some of the rules. Please forgive me … my dear uncle Hades. "
"Hermes, the god who is good at deception." The voice of Hades sounded … from the phantom behind Joe, "I need you to do something for me."
Hermes frowned subconsciously … He knew that Hades was talking to him about a condition, and it was obviously a condition that he couldn't refuse — but he couldn't figure out why Hades mentioned that he was good at deception.
"My dear uncle Hades, what can I do for you?" Hermes rolled his eyes, "You know, the Father is watching me all the time … I'm afraid I can't do it."
Hades … the phantom slowly spoke. His voice was filled with vicissitudes. "I have not seen the sunlight of the earth for a very, very long time. I have not seen the daytime of Mount Olympus. I have even gradually forgotten the feeling of warmth. Persephone's arrival only brought winter to the Underworld. "
Hermes opened his mouth, somewhat uncertain and even a little frightened, "Hades, do you want to leave the Underworld … how can this be, once you leave the Underworld, the power of death will come to the human world, and the balance will be broken … the Father, the Father won't allow you to leave the Underworld!"
"Zeus …" The phantom of Hades said indifferently, "He won't allow me to leave the Underworld, just like he won't allow the Sea King to appear on land. This is indeed a problem."
Hermes quickly said, "I heard that there is a mirror, no matter where you are, you can see what you want to see. Great Pluto, my Uncle Hades, you know how fast I am. I'll be able to get the mirror for you very soon. You can also see the sunlight of the earth in the Underworld, and the daytime of Mount Olympus! The most beautiful scenery in the world will be presented in front of you one by one. "
"Hermes, you still don't understand what I mean … well, it may be a kind of happiness to not understand." At this time, the phantom of Hades suddenly separated from Joe's body, and then directly covered Hermes' body … it was like some kind of substance that invaded his body, little by little, through the pores of Hermes' divine body, and drilled into his body.
Hermes was in great pain. His wails were like that of a criminal who was being punished … He was rolling on the ground, twitching as he endured unimaginable pain.
"Hades … Hades!" Hermes, who was on the verge of collapse, screamed at this moment, "What do you want to do! Are you going to kill the God of Mount Olympus? Aren't you afraid that the thunder of the God of the Sky will come to this land of death? "
"Don't worry … no one will know that you are dead." The phantom of Hades said faintly, "Because the next one to become Hermes will be me …"
Instantly, Hermes seemed to have thought of a huge conspiracy that seemed to have unknowingly covered the whole Mount Olympus. At the moment of his death, he had an intuition that surpassed the past. "Hades … Are you going to impersonate me and enter Mount Olympus?"
"Yes and no, that is a matter for the future." The phantom of Hades finally disappeared completely into Hermes' body.
When the last bit of the shadow merged with Hermes's body, Hermes's anger and cries of pain all disappeared … … He lay motionless on the cracked ground, and his eyes gradually became dim and lifeless.
After a long time, [Hermes] slowly got up, lowered his head, and looked at his hands. Then, he moved his body, and showed a strange smile.
Without further ado, [Hermes] directly grabbed the back of Joe's collar, lifted him up, and then stepped on the Flying Wing Boots, and headed toward the palace of Hades.
"Even I don't know your origin, but obviously, your arrival has brought me luck that even the Goddess of Fate wouldn't dare to give me." [Hermes] lowered his head to look at the unconscious Joe, and a strange smile appeared on his face again. "Little fellow, as my adopted son, you will inherit the throne of the King of Hell … The Underworld has always needed a master."
…
Soon, [Hermes] brought Joe back to the castle … and didn't alarm many palace guards.
But obviously, the maid, Ji Si, who was taking care of Joe, was alerted.
"Master Hermes, may I ask why you took Young Master out without permission? And …" Ji Si stared at [Hermes] indifferently. "I hope you won't tell me what happened to Young Master."
"Relax." [Hermes] smiled slightly. "He is just tired, so he fell asleep … If you don't believe me, you can check it yourself."
The maid, Ji Si, took Joe over dubiously and carefully checked him.
[Hermes] couldn't help but 'bitterly smile' and said, "Is my trustworthiness so low? This really makes me sad, Ji Si. "
"After all, Hermes's messenger is also the master of deceit and deception." The maid, Ji Si, said indifferently, "I just don't want the mission given to me by Hades to be messed up. Otherwise, I will be very tired and annoyed."
"Actually, I don't like to use deception." [Hermes] shook his head and said, "What I hope is that all sincerity can shine on the whole human world like the glory of the rising sun."
The maid, Ji Si, didn't say anything. She just held Joe and left [Hermes]'s side … [Hermes] chuckled at this moment as if he was quite satisfied that he could deceive Ji Si.
When the maid, Ji Si, finally left, [Hermes] slowly turned around and looked at a place behind him. He looked for a while and then walked over expressionlessly.
At this moment, a black shadow slowly emerged from the place where there was no one.
"I thought you were going to hide all the time." [Hermes] looked at Old Ha with a face full of curiosity. "It's really interesting. I actually feel the same power from your body as mine … Who are you?"
The figure in front of [Hermes] was Old Ha … the Old Ha who met Nero.
…
When he looked at [Hermes], his expression was clearly not calm. Instead, it was complicated … Old Ha suddenly said to [Hermes], "Hell has always needed a master."
Hermes, who had been invaded by Hades's shadow, frowned at this moment. "Oh?"
Old Ha shook his head. His eyes suddenly became fierce and he said in a deep voice, "Hades, you can't leave the Underworld because once you leave, the balance will be broken. It will open a gap in the Underworld and bring a huge disaster to the human world. At that time, the Pearl of the Sky will have a reason to lead the Main Gods on Mount Pantheon to suppress you."
"Everyone knows that." [Hermes] sneered.
Old Ha was neither in a hurry nor in a hurry, but his expression did not look relaxed. "So you're looking for a substitute … a host that can accommodate your power of death and temporarily preserve the power of Nether King. That way, you can use Hermes's identity to do whatever you want on Mount Pantheon. That child, that child is the host you've set your eyes on!"
[Hermes] looked at Old Ha in surprise and even sized him up … After a moment of silence, [Hermes] suddenly said, "Although I don't know why you have the same power as me and are so much weaker … there's one thing I have to tell you."
"What?" Old Ha could not help but frown. He even had a bad premonition in his heart. In fact, since Nero stole the remote control on the beach and then came to this Underworld of the past, he had always had this bad premonition … a sense of fear!
"I actually didn't think so much." [Hermes] said slowly, "But what you said reminded me that I can still do this — what a smart way to do it! This human child can definitely become the perfect host for the power of [Hades] … Oh, my God, this way, I don't have to disguise myself as Hermes to enter Mount Pantheon … I can personally come to Mount Pantheon! "
Hearing [Hermes]'s words, Old Ha's ears seemed to have been struck by a sudden clap of thunder … He looked at [Hermes] in front of him in fear and muttered to himself, "How … How can this be? This is impossible … This is impossible … You didn't come up with this plan … How can this be me reminding you … No! Things shouldn't be like this … Things can't be like this! There must be something wrong … Something is wrong! "
At this time, Old Ha was like a madman. Sometimes he held his head and muttered to himself, and sometimes he laughed crazily … Suddenly, Old Ha's eyes turned red, and a pure but weak death power erupted from his body. "Remote control … I want it back! I want to do it again … Remote control! "
Old Ha suddenly turned into black smoke and was about to rush out from [Hermes]'s eyes … But how could [Hermes] let Old Ha do as he wished?
[Hermes] let out a cold harrumph. A similar but much stronger energy of death gushed out from [Hermes]. The two similar energy of death instantly merged, but it was obvious that [Hermes]'s energy of death was stronger. It devoured Old Ha's energy of death in an instant!
[Hermes] waved his hand and pulled Old Ha in front of him. He looked at Old Ha carefully and said, "It is indeed the divine power of [Hades] … Even the divinity is exactly the same. This is strange!"
"Let go of me … Let … me go!" Old Ha struggled desperately.
But [Hermes] chuckled at this time, "Let go of you? No … I suddenly have a better idea! My new son, Pulin, is a good vessel, but compared to him … you seem to be more suitable. "
Old Ha's body suddenly trembled … He realized that at this moment, everything was in chaos!
