When Words Fail, There's Nothing to Say / The True Threat
This scene was also observed by the citizens of Olympus, who were watching the area, and immediately caused a great uproar.
"They actually managed to repel even the Twin Gods! Chaldea truly lives up to its reputation as villains who need the Divine Oracle intervention of the great Zeus!"
"They were two very cute little girls, but I never expected them to be so terrifying..."
"Perhaps this is also part of Chaldea's conspiracy?"
Before the Divine Oracle was revealed, who could have imagined they would be such evil beings?
It seems that the long period of comfort has made the citizens of Olympus less sensitive to danger, and they are discussing such dangerous topics right under the noses of villains like Gwen.
Hearing the harsh criticism from the citizens of Olympus, even though they were mentally prepared, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash still couldn't help but show some unusual expressions.
However, this strange feeling was quickly dispelled—
"Do I really have such a low profile?"
They only mentioned you guys...
Gwen shook his hand, then looked with some curiosity at the person who might be able to provide him with an answer—
"As the one who knocked that foul-mouthed brat flying, I should be the one attracting the most attention..."
Or have you somehow used technology to conceal my identity as a dangerous individual?
"There is no such thing. It was all just a discussion among the citizens."
Meeting the gaze of Gwen, one of the Twin Gods, who had been sent flying with a single gesture, Euro remained unmoved and gently shook his head.
"So it's because of fear that you subconsciously avoid me?"
Gwen stroked his chin, speaking with some uncertainty.
"It seems my image here is starting to become indescribable..."
But is this all the faith you've built up? You've already started to avoid it?
"..."
Faced with Gwen's aggressive questioning, Europa remained silent.
She couldn't very well say that it was because Dioscuri so unpopular that almost no one felt any emotion for the other's severe blow, could she?
What are you doing?
What are they doing?
Aphrodite?
The compassionate Goddess watched all this, uttering a soft, questioning whisper.
"How dare you say such things without any manners."
Your behavior is damaging to our reputation as discipliners.
The stunning red-haired Goddess unfurled her fiery red wings, revealing her beautiful figure, but the magical aura emanating from her far surpassed that of the Dioscuri siblings. Her long, slender eyes, adorned with vibrant eyeshadow, stared intently at Gwen, filled with hostility.
Chapter 591 When words fail to reach a consensus, even half a sentence is too much.
Faced with the accusations from the stunning Goddess, Mash had no intention of responding; her mood only grew heavier.
"This magical fluctuation..."
Master, these two... are probably really gods from the Lostbelt..."
Mash's voice was a little hoarse, but she still explained clearly to Fujimaru Ritsuka behind her.
If Mash could still harbor some hope when Gwen said it before, now that the person involved has admitted it himself, Mash has no choice but to abandon all hope and face reality.
However, even against this enemy she didn't want to face, Mash's figure remained firmly in front of Fujimaru Ritsuka, without wavering in the slightest.
Fujimaru Ritsuka's expression did not change much.
Although it came much earlier than expected, she was already prepared to confront the Greek gods while still at sea, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.
Thinking this, Fujimaru Ritsuka unconsciously glanced at Gwen—
Thankfully, at least now it's not just Storm Bord and Mash...
Meanwhile, Gwen was still chatting with Europa—
"By the way, don't you have any psychiatrists here?"
"A psychiatrist?"
Europa asked, puzzled.
"This person's mental state is clearly not normal. If he gets out of control, the consequences could be unimaginable."
Gwen pointed to Demeter, whose face appeared gentle but was actually empty and contained a hint of malice, and to Aphrodite looked displeased.
"!"
Upon hearing Gwen's words, Europa's expression changed instantly, and magic surged within him, emanating an aura that brought peace to the mind.
As Europa's aura spread, Demeter, who had just looked over, appeared bewildered yet calm, as if she hadn't heard Gwen's words.
Meanwhile, Aphrodite, the beautiful Goddess who had previously spoken but was ignored, and now Gwen had even called a lunatic, grew increasingly somber—
"What an animal, completely lacking in manners..."
Her first words were tinged with the impatience and arrogance inherited from Dioscuri. The impatience on her face ruined the beauty and allure of the goddess of beauty. The red-haired goddess of beauty stared at Gwen beside Europa as if she were looking at something untouchable.
"For example, look at the goddess smoking?"
Gwen crossed his arms, equally defiant, his words laced with sarcasm—
"Someone like you will be paraded through the streets with a sign that says 'Disqualified Goddess' hanging in front of you."
"..."
Upon hearing Gwen's words, Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash, who had been silently watching the gods argue, exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise and uncertainty in each other's eyes—
Gwen's words sound somewhat familiar.
"Oh..."
Aphrodite, who had never been judged like this before, laughed in fury, her gaze growing even colder—
"They show no respect for the gods whatsoever, but instead offer their opinions and spout nonsense..."
Are you truly aware that you are standing before a deity?
You've seen gods in Northern Europe and India, haven't you?
"I'm sorry, I'm a newcomer, and you are the first group of gods I've ever met."
Gwen interrupted Aphrodite, raising his index finger and gently shaking it—
"Honestly, it's quite disappointing—"
They have neither impressive achievements nor commendable strength, yet they're arrogant and unrealistic.
While chatting with Europa, Gwen casually extracted some of the magic power from her and analyzed its special characteristics.
Although originally a Heroic Spirit summoned from the Pan-Human History, after being synchronized with Hera, she also acquired some characteristics of the Greek Gods in this Lostbelt.
To be on the safe side, Gwen decided to learn more about the enemy first.
As for Castor, he was also one of the subjects of the test.
Upon hearing Gwen's blatant provocation, Aphrodite, already displeased, completely Honkai her composure, her beautiful face contorted with rage—
"How rude..."
Before the gods, you shall kneel obediently before them!
An ominous crimson magic erupted from Aphrodite like a fountain, sweeping across the entire battlefield.
In an instant, Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mash, and Miyamoto Musashi felt dizzy, their vision blurred, and their consciousness went haywire. They instinctively wanted to kneel down as ordered.
However, Gwen accepted the crimson magic that surged down like a waterfall, without changing his expression. He even grabbed a strand, played with it for a moment, and then waved his hand, creating a gust of fierce wind.
A sharp breeze swept over the three of them, instantly dispelling their drowsiness.
"Master, it's mental interference. The anti-interference spells we prepared beforehand didn't work. It's possible that the opponent's power is at play!"
The first thing Mash did upon regaining consciousness was to report to Fujimaru Ritsuka and check on her condition.
"I'm fine, Gwen helped us..."
Fujimaru Ritsuka shook her head and looked at Gwen—
"Are so-called gods just beasts that break down your defenses with three sentences and then resort to violence?"
Gwen, unaffected by Aphrodite's power, spoke words that made her expression increasingly unpleasant, yet his actions were not slow—
Amid Europa's startled cry of "Watch out!", Gwen had already taken a step forward, his figure flashing as he appeared before Aphrodite, his fist, wreathed in golden flames, slamming mercilessly into that breathtakingly beautiful face—
"In that case, let's use the methods we use against wild beasts—"
"You--"
Aphrodite, caught between shock and rage, only managed to utter a single word before falling into Gwen's attack.
Without using any golden combat techniques or any special power, Gwen, under the astonished gazes of Fujimaru Ritsuka, Mash, Miyamoto Musashi, and Europa, taught the goddess a lesson with his sandbag-sized fists, punch after punch.
"How does it feel to be beaten by the fists of humans you despise, Lady Aphrodite?"
Holding him up by one hand, his body already limp and swaying gently, Gwen asked with a sneer.
"Arrogant!"
Even though Gwen had beaten her like a dog, Aphrodite's attitude remained unchanged, and the hatred in her beautiful red eyes only increased.
Meanwhile, seemingly finally aware of the unexpected farce unfolding in the city below, Zeus, the master of this place, finally made a statement—
Rumble~
The once clear blue sky suddenly turned so gloomy it looked like water could drip from it, and instead of the sun illuminating the city, lightning bolts struck down on Gwen in the astonished eyes of Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others.
However--
That's it?
With one hand supporting Crystal Wall, blocking all of Zeus's lightning, Gwen calmly tossed the shimmering ball of light in his hand with interest—
"If Zeus, the thunderbolts you obtained by turning your companions into such a grotesque state are only this much, then it is quite disappointing."
Chapter 592 The Real Threat
In the sky, thick, dark clouds hung low over the city like an endless gray curtain, as if they were about to swallow the whole world.
Within the clouds, streaks of lightning darted about like snakes, flashing with blinding white light, but no longer struck.
The lightning sometimes illuminated the entire city, casting the outlines of skyscrapers in a ghastly white light, and at other times it disappeared into the darkness, as if accumulating some indescribable power.
The three Chaldea stood amidst the ruins, gazing up at the gloomy sky, a sense of oppression rising within them. Their breathing became heavy, and their eyes revealed deep wariness and unease.
The cessation of thunderbolts does not mean safety.
On the contrary, this silence is more like a silent threat, as if announcing that some more terrifying offensive is brewing.
A suffocating tension filled the air, as if even the wind had stopped, leaving only the faint rumble of thunder in the clouds, like some giant beast sharpening its claws, ready to pounce on its prey at any moment, or like the Spear of Lightning that the King of Gods quietly raised, wrapped with a gale capable of tearing everything apart.
Gwen stood in the center of the ruins, still clutching Aphrodite tightly in his hand.
Even though she had just been ruthlessly ravaged, and her beautiful clothes were stained with dust and blood, it did not diminish her beauty in the slightest.
Her body still radiated a faint glow, like a flawless piece of Jade Stone, her skin crystal clear, as if one could see the blood and energy flowing beneath it through the light.
However, faint purple lines occasionally flashed across that beautiful skin, not very noticeable in the golden light.
Gwen's gaze was cold and focused. His fingers gently traced Aphrodite's arm, exploring its mysteries. His brows furrowed slightly, and a thoughtful glint flashed in his eyes.
He wasn't in a hurry to act, but waited patiently, seemingly enjoying every second of the standoff.
He knew that Zeus's silence was not a sign of retreat, but rather a preparation for an even more powerful offensive.
However, Gwen was not afraid—lightning still shone in his palm, as if mocking the master of the lightning in the sky.
Even if Thunder were two levels stronger, it wouldn't be enough to defeat him.
At the same time, Gwen's attention was not entirely focused on Zeus—
Although Aphrodite in his hand was only in human form, she was also part of the Machine God.
Gwen's fingertips gently traced the delicate skin, a thoughtful glint in his eyes as he explored its secrets, such as—
