Within Command Center of the Athens base;
After hearing what the woman who called herself Athena said, everyone focused their attention on William.
"Boss." Serena asked doubtfully, "Does that woman know you?"
"..." William, who was a little silent, shrugged and said, "In Athens, everyone seems to know me."
With that said, William said to the supervisor standing next to him, "Ask her what she means."
"Yes."
The supervisor who received the instruction leaned close to the microphone and used the broadcast in the interrogation room to question the 'Athena'.
Home screen.
'Athena' sitting against the wall was still staring at the screen. After hearing the supervisor's question, he replied:
"It's very simple. I want to talk to your boss in person."
Hearing this, the supervisor turned to look at William and said hesitantly, "Boss, this..."
William looked at the main screen with slightly squinted eyes. He did not answer the supervisor's question. Instead, he tried to ask the system in his heart:
'System, can you help me detect the woman who calls herself Athena?'
[It has been detected that 'Athena' is a humanoid creature and is being detected...
Testing completed.
Paras·Athena.
Combat strength:907
Stunts:
1 Colossal Transformation;
Can magnify itself, its clothing and weapons up to seventy-five times.
Note: This will not increase her combat power by seventy-five times, it just makes her more destructive.
2 divine body;
Possessing the legendary divine physique, it can effectively resist attacks from conventional weapons.
Note: This system has detected that Achilles's divine body is superior to hers.
3 energy;
She stores extremely high amounts of energy in her body to maintain her various stunts.
If too much is consumed during combat, energy needs to be replenished to maintain life.
If the energy is exhausted, she will turn to stone until she dies.]
'Ouch?'
After hearing the reply given by the system, William couldn't help but sigh in his heart: 'She is really clear to you in front of you.'
907 combat power?
This...
Instead, the system said something in his ear again:
[Back to the host, as long as it is a humanoid creature, this system can detect its combat effectiveness.]
'Thank you.'
After thanking him inwardly, he looked at William on the home screen again, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
'God is nothing more than this.'
Then, William waved his hand and said quietly, "Since she wants to talk to me in person, then I will meet her request."
Then he turned around and walked out, continuing to order, "Serena, upload the surveillance footage to Dr. Halsey's research room and ask her to help analyze the 'Athena'.
Then notify Spartan Squad who is staying on Earth to be on standby and ready to attack at any time."
"Yes, boss." Serena replied.
"Very well, Blue Team and Alpha are coming with me."
"Yes."
Outside the interrogation room.
William asked the four UBCS and the researcher to leave first, and then he asked Hunk to lead Alpha to stay outside, while he led the three John into the interrogation room.
Sitting opposite Athena.
Put on your best smile and say, "As you can see, ma'am, I am their boss William Russell."
"Haha." Athena, who was wearing a veil, also smiled slightly.
Said: "When I saw you up close, I realized that you are much younger than I expected."
"It's overly praised." After hearing Athena's evaluation, William shook his head slightly, leaned on the back of the chair and said:
"I don't like to use polite words. I just go straight to the point. So... Ms. Athena, you have to prove that you are the legendary Goddess, right?"
"Of course."
Athena readily agreed and took off the veil that obscured her appearance.
Just look at her almost perfect facial features, a high bridge of nose, red lips and white teeth, and you can't find any flaws.
It is indeed a face that Goddess should have.
Even William couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, seeming to be amazed by the other party's appearance.
But he quickly calmed down.
After all, Halsey is 'watching' him from above.
As for Spartans, who was on alert, he had a completely indifferent attitude and was indifferent to Athena's alluring appearance.
It's more than that.
When Athena completely took off her veil, her body began to emit a faint blue light.
The light changes from weak to strong, until it is dazzling.
For people watching the surveillance, it is somewhat difficult to see directly, but it is not a problem for William and Spartans.
The clothes on Athena disappeared out of thin air and were replaced by a white bundled dress.
A set of shining golden armor, covering important parts such as the chest, wrists, and ankles.
Athena stood up slowly, and in her left and right hands, spears and bucklers shining with golden light appeared.
Upon seeing this, Spartans, who was holding Gauss Rifle, immediately became alert and pointed the dark gun at her.
If anything goes wrong, they don't mind firing a few shots.
William, on the other hand, still maintained an indifferent expression, looking directly at Athena without blinking, and even wanted to complain:
"Goddess If you want to cosplay, you must try the Sailor Moon costume."
Of course, it is impossible for William to really say it.
And Athena also took less than a second to transform from the appearance of an ordinary civilian into what a female war goddess should look like.
Then she looked down at William, raised her voice and said, "Does this prove that I am the legendary Athena?"
However, William just crossed his legs and said with an extremely calm face, "I believe you are a god for the time being."
To be honest, Athena's dress-up program is quite gimmicky, but for William, who has seen countless abnormal phenomenon files...
It has long been commonplace.
Without Halsey explaining it, he could guess that Athena could generate clothes and armor out of thin air, which was probably some kind of advanced space technology.
The current William is almost 'immune' to all abnormal phenomena.
"Huh?"
The surprised face that was originally expected did not appear, which made Athena have a strong sense of curiosity about William.
Then she put away her spear and buckler, sat back on her seat, and couldn't help but clapped her hands and praised, "You are indeed a human being who has been paying attention to me for a long time."
William just waved his hand, then put away his smile and asked straight to the point:
"Ma'am, I would like to know what is the purpose of your contact with us?
And... I have been paying attention to you for a long time, what does it mean?"
At this time, Athena also became much more serious. He looked at William and said, "When we solve Cronus together, I will solve your confusion together.
How?"
"Cronus?"
William leaned forward, looked at Athena and said in a deep voice, "Are you talking about Titan King, Cronus?"
"Yes." Athena did not deny it, his eyes revealed a fierce light:
"According to seniority... he is still my grandfather, but you and I have to work together to stop him, if possible...
(emphasis added) Better to kill him."
