The Greece Antagonist

——Hypereion·Radiant!

——Theia·Blind!

The familiar stripping away of the five senses arrived, and Luo En, plunged into chaos, closed his eyes and pushed forward instead of retreating.

As his mind quieted, the blood-soaked warrior's phantom opened its eyes, merging into his body, bringing battle skills forged through countless hardships and the instinctual intuition of a wild beast.

At this moment, he didn't need to see or listen; his battle instincts would tell him how to evade danger and kill his enemies first.

The Gun of Nation Creation struck like lightning, each thrust faster and more ferocious than the last, leaving Kronos almost no time to think and gradually unable to parry.

Finally, after a hundred-odd exchanges, Luo En seemed to smell the opportunity for victory and abruptly opened his eyes.

Next moment, twelve phantoms emerged behind him, merging into one. The Gun of Nation Creation in his hands thrust from an extremely tricky angle, piercing through the four arms that Kronos used to shield himself, and ultimately blasting his massive head to pieces.

However, as the blood rained and flesh splattered, Luo En looked at the headless body that remained standing, and his expression inevitably darkened.

——[Crown], gone!

On the bare neck, where flesh writhed, a ferocious head gradually regenerated, its mouth revealing a not-yet-fully regrown flesh-ridden gum, laughing arrogantly:

"Fool, did you think I would give you the same opportunity after last time?"

Luo En narrowed his eyes and pondered: "You hid the [Crown]?"

"Exactly! It's in a place absolutely safe!" Kronos looked at Luo En, his face brimming with pride. "This time, you won't be able to use the same tricks to stop my grand...undertaking..."

"Bang!"

Before he could finish, the withered branch-like spear shot forward, and the newly-regrown head of Kronos instantly burst open like a watermelon.

After a moment of flesh writhing, the regrown head of Kronos, now bearing a skull-like face, opened its jaw bone and roared in fury.

"You are on the brink of death, bastard!"

"Bang!"

Numerous newly inscribed Hermes Script hit Kronos on the head, bewildering the Titan King once again.

"Trying to kill me? Just like that?" Luo En looked at the headless body before him, scoffing mockingly. "You couldn't accomplish that even with the [Crown] on, and you think you can without it? Who's the real fool?"

After a moment, the regrown Kronos took a deep breath, suppressing the fury within, and his flesh-writhing face turned ominously grim.

"I admit you are strong, even with the Crown showcasing the complete body, I might not certainly win against you. But you seem to have forgotten, war is never a stage for one man alone!"

At those words, Luo En's eyelids twitched.

Could it be...

"Thunderous rumbling!"

At the same time, over the Sea of Okeanos, lightning and thunder roared while a raging typhoon, with waves covering the skies, bypassed the long coastline of the Peloponnesian Peninsula, pouring into the Aegean Sea before Athens.

Sea Beasts, fierce and dreadful, emerged from the sea, charging towards the coastal walls.

Among the storm and thunder, the ancestor of all demons, Typhon, erupted from the water, its nearly hundred black and ferocious dragon heads attacking toward the Acropolis of Athens and War God Mountain.

Seeing that overwhelming shadow nearly envelop the entire Acropolis of Athens and War God Mountain, Luo En's face changed, instinctively wanting to provide support.

However, as this thought arose in him, the newly regrown-headed Kronos intercepted him, sneering.

"I don't need to win in a one-on-one fight, I just need to hold you off with this immortal body, waiting for Typhon and his Demon Army to obliterate War God Mountain, then join forces with me! When that time comes, I will summon the [Crown] again to be re-crowned, and together with Typhon! I wonder if a mere Chief God like you could surpass the two of us, Titan Kings!"

Hearing Kronos's true intentions, Luo En's heart sank.

This war, not only are the New Gods and humans advancing, but the side of the Old Gods as well!

These monsters, once keen on resolving issues with their fists, were gradually learning to rely on "wisdom" and "tactics."

If the situation on the battlefield changed as Kronos had envisioned, then not only Athens but even Thessaly was in danger!

The key to victory now lay in finding and destroying the Titan Temple, the seat of the [Divine Throne], and the [Crown] that Kronos had hidden...

Wait!

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed through Luo En's mind, his thoughts spinning rapidly.

Crown... hidden away... in an absolutely "safe" place...

— In the Titan Temple! The Crown is in the Titan Temple!

— Moreover, to free oneself from the Crown, and to control the nine main Titan Gods, the location of the Titan Temple must not be too far from the battlefield!

— Otherwise, their authority and nature of immortality would severely diminish, and they wouldn't be as vibrant as they are now.

— Therefore, the Titan Temple is underneath Thessaly!

Wisdom rushed through Luo En's mind like a spring, finding the answers hidden behind the fog.

He surveyed the camp of the Giant Spirit Clan, and his conjecture strengthened.

Prometheus, Atlas, and several high-ranking giants from the Giant Spirit Clan were all missing.

It was quite likely that Kronos had ordered them to guard the underground Titan Temple, adding a layer of insurance over his merged "weakness" and "dead spot."

But such was the cause of his success, and so it was also the cause of his demise.

Kronos hid the controlling Crown in the Titan Temple, indeed concealing his "weakness," but also fixed the Titan Temple, which acted as a beacon, permanently in the underground of the Thessaly battlefield.

This undoubtedly provided the Expeditionary Army with the perfect opportunity to advance!

Truths and illusions, realities and fabrications.

Prometheus, well done!

At this moment, Luo En had guessed who was behind Kronos' "brilliant strategy" and silently admired that seer in his heart.

Now, it was time for a surprise move.

While dispersing divine will, Luo En relayed the message to the waiting Argo Expeditionary Forces in the city, and with a guiding gesture summoned a divine shield from the Magic Circle Diagram, seemingly pieced together from countless fragments of cyan and gold.

— [The Mini World that Surrounds the Heavens].

This was the Divine Shield, meticulously forged by Hephaestus for him.

But due to the disastrous battle before, this Divine Shield had been shattered by Kronos.

After the battle, although the God of Craftsmanship had recovered most of the fragments, the damage to the Divine Shield was too severe, and the two Divine Laws it contained were terribly fragmented; even with meticulous repairs by the craftsman god, its powers were likely far lesser than before.

In the end, Luo En decided to abandon the Divine Law of "defense" and retained the "world" authority within it.

At this moment, using it to create opportunities for the Expeditionary Army was most appropriate.

Seeing Kronos charging towards him, Luo En decisively tossed the cyan-golden Divine Shield into the air, solemnly chanting,

"This is the temple of the gods, this is the gate of heaven—Dionysus Cosmos!"

In an instant, the already battered shield disintegrated into dense fragments that surrounded Luo En and Kronos,

With the flickering of light patterns, the images of the earth, sky, sea, the tireless sun, the full round moon, and numerous stars carved on the fragments materialized around the two, like a garland that colors the heavens, shining brightly and gradually constructing the contours of a [World].

At that moment, Luo En's Gun of Nation Creation turned into a giant palm tree wildly growing, its branches and leaves igniting into hundred-zhang high golden-red flames that dyed the entire sky.

Under the staggered overlay of light patterns, the magnificent and elegant Heavenly Palace emerged amid the clouds, and seven slowly opening gates swallowed the figures of the two.

At the same time, the gates of Thessaly City burst open, and King Admetos unsheathed his sword and roared,

"Charge!"

Mages and priests took the lead, casting curses and divine arts like meteoric showers upon the battlefield, raising a storm of blood and violence;

Griffins tamed by the Spartans and Two-legged Flying Dragons bred by the Kingdom of Colchis followed, spewing cursed bullets and venomous slobber from the city, disrupting the enemy's formation;

Next, Thessaly's Divine Blood Guard driving bronze chariots, and Amazonian female warriors riding divine steeds, tore through the magic beasts and giants blocking the city gate like two sharp knives;

And finally, Divine Blood Heroes from various city-states entered the battlefield, catching the unprepared giant spirits and demon army off guard and slaughtering them mercilessly.

Chaos and panic spread incessantly during the fierce battle, some faint-hearted giant spirits and magic beasts turned tail and fled into crevices in the earth, trying to escape this bloody massacre.

However, some Divine Blood Heroes seemed red-eyed with fury, chasing after them relentlessly, even risking leaping into the crevices themselves.

But if one were to carefully count, it would be noticed that the Divine Blood Heroes who charged into the crevices numbered just over fifty.
