After temporarily ending the conversation with Halsey about resurrecting Achilles, William took her and Serena back to the upper area of Underground Facility, and then reunited with five Primarch including John, Karl.

After saying hello to the two colonels Hunk and Kent, they went to the parking platform on the west side of the base building complex of Minos, took the Pelican back to the Phantom, and finally went from the Phantom to Containment Fleet in low-Earth orbit.

Soon after.

The three aircraft carriers of Containment Fleet and the Phantom carrying William are parked in low-Earth orbit in a formation.

Immediately afterwards, a Pelican sailed away from the flagship of Containment Fleet and entered the hangar of the Phantom.

Inside the cabin of the Phantom.

William and Halsey are sitting on a fixed double sofa, while Athena, who belongs to Containment Fleet, is sitting on the single sofa to the right of William.

At this time, Athena was not wearing the armor she wore in battle, but the suit uniform of an A-level employee.

But from the way she crossed her arms in front of her chest and frowned slightly, it was not difficult to guess that she was thinking about going to the underworld.

"Boss" for a long time, Athena then looked at William and said:

"The underworld managed by Hades is different from the Olympus mountain managed by my father Zeus, and the ocean Poseidon.

Unless encountering extremely important circumstances, Hades generally will not come to the human world, or go to Olympus Mountain. Similarly, Olympus gods cannot go to the underworld at will.

Even my father, who is extremely controlling, cannot interfere in any affairs of the underworld.

As for the situation in the underworld that needs attention, it should be the Cerberus guarding the gate of hell. It is much stronger than Hydra and Nemean Lion.

Of course, Cerberus is really powerful for ordinary people, but it is nothing to worry about for me and Spartans."

"According to your statement, the underworld is not a dangerous and abnormal existence, right?" Halsey asked.

"Not entirely." Athena waved his left hand lightly and explained to Halsey:

"The underworld in our Greek world is very different from the Chinese underworld, the Duat in Egypt, and the hell described by Bible.

There is almost no danger in going to the underworld in our Greek world. Even ordinary people can go to the underworld with certain help.

But the problem is

The soul of Achilles must be behind the gate guarded by Cerberus. Entering this gate is not as simple as simply defeating or killing Cerberus, but requires the permission of my uncle Hades.

If my uncle didn't want to see anyone, there was no way he could get through that door."

After hearing the explanation given by Athena, William also vaguely remembered that when he was a child in his previous life, he had watched an anime named Olympus Star Legend through the animation world.

anime to some extent

No, it beautifies Greek Gods to a great extent, but it also restores many of Greek mythology's stories.

One of the episodes tells about a person, who William is, I can't remember, but he went to the underworld to meet Hades and wanted to bring his wife back to the human world.

Hades and Persephone also agreed to let the man take back his wife. The only requirement was that he could only look back after he and his wife walked out of the underworld, otherwise his wife would die forever.

Unfortunately, when he was only one step away from the exit of the underworld, a small accident caused the man to turn around and his wife died completely.

Although it is an anime, we can see that the underworld of Greek mythology, as well as the King and Queen of Hades, are not that dangerous.

Moreover, after Umbrella accepted the entire territory of Greece, William also learned that the local people respected Hades, King of the Underworld more than Zeus.

After all, Hades is one of the few good gods among Greek mythology, and he is relatively loyal to the Queen of the Underworld.

"So" at this time William asked Athena:

"Athena, how about you lead a team into the underworld entrance of Santorini volcano and take the soul of Achilles to Minos?"

"Since it is the boss's order, I have no reason to veto it, but"

Athena frowned slightly again and said, "But I can't guarantee 100% whether my uncle Hades is still in the underworld. After all, Greek Gods also abandoned the earth and mankind thousands of years ago."

"It's okay." William waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "Just think of this as exploring the underworld in your Greek region."

"Yes." Athena stood up and said, "Then I'm going to prepare the manpower to go to the underworld."

William also nodded lightly and said, "Okay."

After the conversation, Athena quickly left the cabin, ready to tap Spartans to enter the underworld.

William also took Halsey off the sofa, took her to the Phantom's flagship, and informed Serena to let the Phantom re-enter the atmosphere and sail to the sky above the Athens base.

Time: June 9, 2019.

Location: Athens base.

Local time in Athens: 11:20.

After a day of preparation, Athena only selected two Spartas, John and Mylon, to accompany her to the entrance to the underworld under the Santorini volcano.

After all, according to Athena, the underworld in Greece is not dangerous, and Hades is still her uncle. If she leads many people into the underworld, it is likely to arouse the hostility of Hades.

The next three people took a Pelican and headed to the Santorini volcano, which was stationed by Umbrella Marine Corps and ubcs.

Time: 11:25.

Location: Santorini Military Airport on Santorini Island.

Because Umbrella discovered the tomb of Achilles under the Santorini volcano on October 11, 2007, as well as the suspected entrance to the underworld.

So when Recovery Unit recovered the three anomalies, Nemean Lion, Hydra, and Ceryneian Hind, the company sent agents to relocate all the residents on the island, and then the entire island was built into a military outpost by Engineering Team.

The post has stationed ubcs from this company and Marine Corps from two companies for a long time to prevent all unrelated people from accidentally entering the tomb of Achilles.

Nearly twelve years have passed since the outpost was built.

The ubcs and Marine Corps stationed on the island have been replaced one after another. Today, we finally welcomed the investigation teams of Athena, John and Mylon.

After the three Athena arrived at the military airport at the outpost, they transferred to a convoy of five Warthog driven by ubcs and headed to the underground entrance of the tomb of Achilles, which was listed as a restricted military area.

Within a few minutes, the convoy arrived at the foot of the Santorini volcano, which is also the entrance to the underground tomb.

The cave entrance that was very simple twelve years ago has now been changed by Engineering Team into a gate made of Titanium Alloy, which serves as the outermost safety measure.
