Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Looking at the old man with gray hair and a slightly trembling body in front of him, Achilles felt a sense of emotion in his heart. The once high-spirited prince and the powerful king have now fallen into such a state. This is unpredictable in the world.  ah.

    Putting away the emotion in his heart, he asked: "King of Athens, did you come to Skyros alone?"

    The old Theseus nodded, his voice was a little sad, and he said slowly: "Yes, I left Athens alone and took a boat to Skyros Island. I wanted to take away the wealth left by my father, but I failed.  Unexpectedly, I was almost killed by Lycomedes."[]

    The former King of Athens in front of him was quite pitiful. He sacrificed his youth for the city of Athens, but he never thought that when he grew old, the Athenians abandoned him ungratefully.

    "Of course, the reason why he ended up in the situation he is in today is his own fault. If he didn't have a headache and went to the underworld to abduct the queen, it wouldn't be like this.

    This also corresponds to the saying that tourists who commit evil in the sky will be punished for their own evil. Yesterday's cause and today's result, since they have made mistakes, they will eventually be punished.

    Fortunately, Hades, the god of the underworld, was very generous and did not share his understanding. He just imprisoned him in hell. If it were Zeus, the god of heaven, or Poseidon, the god of sea, he would probably be dragged out and fed to the dogs.

    But now that he saw this old man, Achilles couldn't figure out how a wise man like him could go and abduct the Queen of Hades in such a good way, as if his head had been kicked by a donkey.

    Although he was curious, he did not ask Theseus. After all, not even the gods of Mount Olympus knew about Theseus entering the underworld to abduct the queen of the underworld, let alone mortals.  .

    Feeling the old man's weak life breath, one can imagine that he suffered a lot during the few years he was imprisoned in hell. His physical energy was consumed to a great extent, and even his life energy was left.  Not much.

    What troubles him now is how to deal with this old man who is already in his twilight years. Now, he is showing signs of losing his vitality, and he may not be able to survive for a few days.

    He couldn¡¯t help but be a little confused. Since Artemis could foresee the time and place of Theseus¡¯ danger, it was impossible that she didn¡¯t know his physical condition.  Since he knew that he didn't have much time left, why bother to save him?

    The reason why Theseus loses his vitality is because he has consumed most of his physical energy and life energy in hell. As long as he takes some precious elixirs to replenish the lost physical energy and life energy, his vitality will be restored again.  .

    Speaking of precious elixirs that can replenish physical energy and life energy, there are some in Achilles's cave, but the problem is, because of the existence of that bullshit Lord God's Oath, he didn't dare to take them out to Theseus.

    And if you want to circumvent the oath of the gods, the only way is to let Theseus enter his cave and take the elixir there.

    It¡¯s just that for him, the cave is his greatest reliance on rewriting his own tragic destiny, and he must not make any mistakes.  Even Funix and others have sworn the most vicious oath that they will never reveal any secrets about the cave.

    Although in this world, because of the existence of thunder and punishment, both gods and mortals are in awe of the oath.  Once you make a poisonous oath, you will stick to it.

    But as a descendant, even if Theseus swore an oath, only by letting him stay in his sight forever can he really feel at ease.

    Putting aside these headaches, he decided to leave the final decision to Theseus. If he was willing to swear a poisonous oath and submit to his subordinates, then he would help him regain his life.

    But if he doesn¡¯t want to follow his obsession and leave with him, then he can only be left to fend for himself here.

    "Theseus, why do I feel that the vitality in your body is waning?" In order to bring the topic to the point, he asked again and again.

    Theseus smiled sadly, reluctantly used the scepter to support his crumbling body, and said in a low voice: "Before coming here, I suffered a great disaster, and all the physical energy and life energy in my body were consumed.  Mostly, that¡¯s why it caused the loss of vitality.¡±

    Achilles nodded, frowned slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Your current situation is very bad. If you don't find a way to make up for the loss of physical energy and life energy, I'm afraid"

    He did not finish what he said, but Theseus also understood what he wanted to say next. He shook his head feebly and said: "I know this too, but where can I go to find the soul that can make up for the physical energy and life energy?"What?  "

    At this time, it can be considered that the topic has entered. Achilles pretended to be thoughtful and said with some hesitation: "I have some precious elixirs in my hand that can make up for your loss of physical energy and life energy, but"

    Hearing Achilles say that he had the elixir in his hand, Theseus, who had given up all hope, was shocked. His old eyes shone brightly and looked at Achilles.

    An ant is still alive, let alone a legendary king who has lived for nearly a hundred years. Now that Achilles has handed out a life-saving straw, he will naturally not let it go. He reaches out his hand and wants to grasp it firmly.  .

    Having lived for nearly a hundred years, he has long been enlightened and can see things more clearly than young people. He knows that Achilles has a plan.

    But no matter what the young man in front of him wanted, he couldn't care about it, because at least only by saving his own life would he have the opportunity to consider other things, otherwise everything would be meaningless.

    "As long as you can keep me alive, I am willing to give you everything I have."

    Talking to smart people saves effort. You only need a simple sentence and he will understand what you mean without you having to explain it.

    After receiving his answer, Achilles showed a satisfied smile on his face. He found a relatively secluded place, summoned the Four Elephant Furnace, and took Theseus into the cave.

    The old Theseus only felt that his eyes were darkened, as if he had fallen into a sticky puddle. Then he broke out of the puddle, and his eyes suddenly became brighter.

    He calmed down, raised his eyes and looked around, only to find that the place where he stood was no longer the peak before, but replaced by a barren plain.

    Although he was well-informed, he had never experienced this kind of space transformation. Looking at the desolation around him and the dim sky above his head, his face was full of incredulity.

    "Is this the legendary Kingdom of God built by the gods?  No, this is definitely not the Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God will not be so desolate."

    Hearing the low murmur from his mouth, the corners of Achilles' mouth turned up slightly, showing a smile, and said: "Strictly speaking, this is a kingdom of gods, but it was not built by gods.  , without any divine power, that¡¯s why this place is so desolate.¡±

    After hearing his explanation, Theseus nodded in understanding, and then asked: "Who are you? What are you brought here for?"

    Achilles did not hide anything and replied: "I am Achilles, son of King Peleus of Thessaly, and my mother is Thetis, the goddess of the sea."

    "As for the purpose of bringing you here, of course I want to save your life. As early as the ancient times, the gods once made an oath. The extraordinary things owned by the gods are strictly prohibited from appearing in the mortal world.  . Once a mortal uses extraordinary things in the mortal world, he will be punished in the most severe way."

    Theseus was a very smart man. After hearing what Achilles said, he already understood the key. He looked around and asked: "This is the kingdom of gods, not mortals."  The world, that is to say, if I take the elixir here, will it not be considered a violation of the oath of the gods?"

    Achilles nodded affirmatively and said with a smile: "That's right, because this is an independent space. It is neither the mortal world nor the heaven, sea or underworld. You will not be punished if you use spiritual objects here.  ¡±

    At this point, his words changed sharply, his expression became serious, and he said solemnly: "This dimension is my biggest secret. Even my mother doesn't know about it. If it weren't for wanting to save you, I wouldn't have taken you with me."  Come here. Now you have two choices. The first is to stay here forever until you die. The second is to swear an oath to follow me forever. I will give you an hour to think about it."

    "Now, even if I go out, I don't know where to go. I don't want to die here, so I choose the latter." To Achilles's expectation, Theseus didn't even have too much  After thinking about it, I gave the answer.

    It has to be said that even though the former king in front of him is old, he is still not to be underestimated, he acts decisively and sees everything clearly.

    "By the glory of the great sea god Poseidon, I, Theseus, will never reveal any secrets about Achilles to anyone. If I violate my oath, I will willingly suffer the burning of heavenly fire forever."

    Theseus¡¯s oath was extremely solemn, because throughout his life, he had great admiration for Poseidon, the god of the sea, and regarded himself as the god of the sea¡¯s darling.  As the king of Athens, his devotion to Poseidon, even more than Athena.

    "Great Achilles, please accept my allegiance and let me be your guardian." When the oath was completed, Theseus half-knelt in front of Achilles and swore allegiance.

    Looking at the former King of Athens half-kneeling in front of him, Achilles couldn't help but smile.
