"Indeed, you all performed very well in this war of gods and have made great progress. However, you cannot be complacent, because the real war of gods has only just begun."
This time, only Ares, descended, but next time it could very well be the entire Olympus Divine Mountain, and you will be facing the entire Olympian Pantheon.
Sitting imposingly in the main seat, Wang Hao surveyed his sons below, extremely satisfied with their performance; they truly were his offspring.
"Father, will Zeus bring the entire Olympus Divine Mountain here?"
As the elder brother, Saga asked in a deep voice, knowing how utterly ruthless the upcoming war of the gods would be.
After all, Ares alone had made things quite difficult for them, and their advantage wasn't that significant.
Although they have greatly improved in all aspects after this divine war, especially after obtaining Ares ' entire Divine Kingdom, the main body of the Athens Sanctuary has been significantly enhanced.
However, directly confronting the entire Olympus Divine Mountain would be incredibly difficult, as Olympus Divine Mountain is not only the lair of the Olympian Pantheon, but also a powerful Ancestor Divine Artifact.
Although it lacks offensive capabilities, its defensive power is extremely strong, and it can bring great blessings to the gods.
If Zeus were to actually bring the entire Olympus Divine Mountain over, they would still face immense pressure.
"There's no need to worry too much. Olympus still has quite a few enemies. Zeus can't possibly summon all the gods. He'll definitely leave Pluton and Sea God to guard other areas."
We only need to deal with Zeus, Heracles, and Apollo.
Athena added with a smile, "If the entire Olympian Pantheon were to attack, they would definitely be under immense pressure, and even if they won, it would certainly be a Pyrrhic victory."
However, this world is not Olympian Pantheon. Jehovah of the Heaven Pantheon and Divine Palace Pantheon Odin always been eyeing the Olympian Pantheon covetously.
Besides, countless smaller pantheons would also be trying to take advantage of the chaos. Unless Zeus had lost his mind, there was absolutely no way he would go to such lengths to target the Athens Sanctuary.
This gives them a chance to grow. As long as they can get through this period, they will be fearless and then truly and quickly end this war of gods.
"Bang!"
" God of Strength? He's mine!"
The taciturn Taurus Gold Saints Aldebaran suddenly clenched his fists and palms, displaying an astonishing fighting spirit.
Saga and the others were not surprised by this, because Aldebaran was the only one among their siblings who focused solely on strength, and in terms of pure power, he was definitely the strongest among them.
Heracles, as one of the twelve Major God in the Olympian Pantheon, was also God of Strength, which suited Aldebaran's taste perfectly.
Moreover, both the divine authority Heracles held and the divine artifacts he possessed were perfectly aligned with Aldebaran's path of cultivation.
If Aldebaran can devour everything Heracles possesses, his Cloth and Sacred Relics will likely be upgraded to the level of Ancestor Divine Artifact. This battle is of paramount importance to Aldebaran.
" Aiolos, is there anything you want to say?"
Seeing his son, Sagittarius Aiolos, hesitate to speak, Wang Hao asked curiously.
"Father, Mother, can you give me Artemis?"
For the first time, the usually brave and decisive Aiolos became somewhat hesitant, but he eventually mustered the courage to express his thoughts.
"Oh? Do you want Artemis herself, or the power she wields?"
Athena became interested and also vaguely guessed some of her son's thoughts.
Saga and the others weren't stupid either; they all seemed to understand something and cast strange glances at their brother Aiolos.
I never expected that you, Aiolos, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, would be this kind of person!
"I want them all!"
Under the intense gaze of his brothers, even Aiolos, with his composure, couldn't help but lower his head, unable to meet their eyes.
"Hehe, it seems our little Aiolos has reached the age of puberty too?"
Sitting next to Wang Hao, Xiaoqing was amused by Aiolos's appearance and realized that her husband's son had fallen for the Yue Shen Artemis at some point.
"I have no objection to you wanting Artemis. Although she is my sister, my birth was unusual, and I have no blood relation to her. Your marriage to her won't affect anything. However, it seems you will have to share divine authority and the Divine Kingdom from now on."
Athena was quite supportive of her son pursuing his nominal sister.
Her original form, a wondrous treasure, was devoured and refined by Zeus when she first arrived in this world. Eventually, she broke free from Zeus's head, so she did not inherit Zeus's bloodline; she was merely Zeus's nominal daughter.
Therefore, she genuinely did not object to her son Aiolos pursuing the Yue Shen Artemis.
Of course, this is also because she has learned a lot about the Mystic Dao Great World and Martial Dao Great World from her husband over the years, and has come to know the Great Dao of ethics, which is why she pays attention to these things.
Otherwise, in the past, given the chaotic family relationships of the Olympian Pantheon and with the absurd God King Zeus as a precedent, there really wouldn't have been any taboos.
"Thank you, Mother, for your kindness!"
Aiolos was overjoyed to see that his mother Athena did not object to his actions.
His encounter with the Yue Shen Artemis was an accident. Artemis came to the Athens Sanctuary to investigate on Zeus's orders, and was discovered by him while he was on patrol. After a minor skirmish, he fell in love with the woman at first sight.
I've never forgotten her all these years; her beautiful figure always appears in my mind when night falls.
Although the woman didn't have any feelings for him, that didn't matter.
He had heard from his teacher Kratos that his father had forced himself on his mother back then, and now the couple was loving and had thirteen brothers and sisters.
Inheriting this philosophy of love, Aiolos felt that conquering Yue Shen would not be a problem.
However, his mother's next words made him feel terrible.
"There's something I must remind you: Zeus harbors inappropriate desires for his daughters, not just because of his own lust, but possibly also because of his secret control over Olympus Divine Mountain."
He's been eyeing Artemis for a long time, and who knows, he might do something desperate in this divine war.
So my dear son, you'd better hurry up!
Athena chuckled. She knew her nominal father, Zeus, very well. That scoundrel had harbored improper thoughts about her back then. Fortunately, she was quite resourceful and managed to leave Olympus Divine Mountain and come to Athens to develop her career through alliances and strategies.
I'll be careful!
With a dark expression, Aiolos felt he needed to speed things up. He wanted to capture Artemis the moment Yue Shen appeared in the next divine war, and then, like his father had done years before, force himself on her. Ideally, he would get her pregnant with several children immediately, so he could finally feel at ease!
Besides that, Zeus also needs to be dealt with severely!
Not only was Aiolos planning to give Zeus a good beating in the next war of the gods, but Saga's brothers also harbored murderous intent.
How dare he covet his own brother's woman? He's got a death wish!
"Alright, you may go and prepare!"
This time, you will still be in charge. Your mothers and I will not intervene unless absolutely necessary.
As if he had thought of something, Wang Hao waved for Saga and the others to leave.
"Honey, look, our children are all of marriageable age now. Shouldn't we start planning ahead?"
Wang Hao pulled Athena's delicate body into his arms and said with a smile.
Aiolos's situation served as a wake-up call for him, and he realized he really needed to worry about his children's love lives and marriages.
After all, he wasn't sure about the final battle, and he couldn't predict what the outcome would be.
Since that's the case, let's prepare for the worst. It's necessary to let our children experience the joys of love before the end, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to face the end as single dogs.
"Don't waste too much effort on the Olympian Pantheon. The atmosphere here seems rather chaotic, and very few people can maintain their inner peace."
Bai Suzhen, who was rather traditional, also took this matter very seriously. However, she immediately rejected the women from the Olympian Pantheon, as their customs were simply too outrageous for her to accept.
Athena, who had suffered this undeserved misfortune, twitched at the corner of her eye, but she couldn't refute it.
There was no way around it; with a God King as absurd as Zeus leading the way, the atmosphere below really couldn't improve.
At the same time, she didn't particularly like the women here; the atmosphere was indeed a bit extreme, and only a very few were pleasing to the eye.
In comparison, the Heaven Pantheon and the Heavenly Palace Pantheon seem to have a more upright atmosphere.
"I feel like there might be some decent stuff in Hell and the Netherworld!"
Xiaoqing has rather unique tastes, and she immediately set her sights on Hell and the Netherworld.
"Then let's cast a wide net and bring over everything that catches our eye, to contribute to our Ark Plan!"
Wang Hao immediately made a decision to broaden his search to all pantheons. Anyone whose character and appearance met the requirements would be included in the evaluation scope. In short, there was no room for error; he would rather pick the wrong one than miss the right one.
At worst, he could have his sons practice polygamy. After all, the only thing those who cultivate the Cosmo system have is a strong physique; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to withstand the explosion of the Cosmo.
Poor Zeus was unaware that his tragic future had already been sealed. At this moment, he was doing his best to repair his damaged body, stabilize his divine status, and at the same time, he was controlling the entire Olympus Divine Mountain to head towards the Athens Sanctuary.
He had realized that the Athens Sanctuary was no ordinary place, and he absolutely could not give them any more time to develop. Otherwise, in a few years, even if he controlled the entire Olympian Pantheon, he might not be a match for Athena.
At the same time, he was very envious of the great opportunity that Athena had obtained. If he could seize it, he would definitely win the final war of the gods, obtain the Scepter of Creation and Pandora's Box, and even become the next Ancestral God.
With such a beautiful dream in mind, Zeus accelerated the speed of Olympus Divine Mountain and rushed towards the Athens Sanctuary.
The commotion caused by Olympus Divine Mountain being activated was considerable and was immediately detected by spies from Great God.
After all, Ares's initiation of the divine war had created a mysterious power in the world, which had already alerted the Great God pantheons, prompting them to increase their surveillance of the Olympian Pantheon.
Now that such a huge commotion has occurred, it's impossible to pretend we didn't see it.
