As Artemis spoke, she drew her bow and nocked an arrow. Whoosh! Instantly, under a bright light, Lin Ye's body was swallowed up by the endless moonlight!
Seeing the furious Artemis, Ares couldn't help but look at Apollo and ask...
"This...when did Artemis become so close to Poseidon? Didn't she always look down on Uncle Poseidon?"
Apollo: "Don't talk nonsense. We've known each other for tens of thousands of years. My sister is also very sad."
Athena: "Is that so? This is the first time I've seen Artemis so angry."
Hera: "By the way, what about those three women? Should we just kill them?"
Athena said, "Forget it, they didn't do anything."
Athena already knew the cause and effect of the matter, and knew that the three Gorgon sisters had angered Poseidon because they did not want to destroy their own city, which naturally made her feel good towards them.
Athena waved her hand, and the three Gorgons were thrown back to the Isle of the Unknown.
"Lin Ye!!!"
Watching Lin Ye vanish into thin air before her eyes, Medusa's anger was about to overflow!
It was clearly Poseidon's fault! Why did he have to kill Lin Ye?!
"If this is what gods are, then we don't need gods like this!"
Lin Ye is doomed. How could he possibly survive an attack like Artemis's?
No one doubts this.
However, Lin Ye discovered that his simulation was not over yet.
[June 24th of the fifth year: You awaken from your slumber...]
"An unfamiliar ceiling." You struggled to open your eyes. The next second, you found yourself in a soft embrace. And what came into view was an incredibly beautiful face.
"Honey! You're awake!"
Artemis looked at Lin Ye happily, and then gave him a big hug.
"How did I get here?" you asked.
Seeing your surprise, Artemis proudly puffed out her chest and said, "Of course, it was I who used the moonlight as cover at the crucial moment, creating a deceptive illusion that led you out!"
Looking at the Moon Goddess in the simulation, who seemed to think, "I'm so smart, praise me!", Lin Ye felt a surge of warmth.
Even then, Artemis was still thinking about saving me.
It seems I need to be more careful in the future.
[June 25th of the fifth year: Your magic has been fully restored. You use illusion magic to disguise yourself. You know that you can't go to Medusa and the others now as it would expose you, so you can only lie low for now...]
July of the fifth year: You and Artemis are living happily ever after...
August of the fifth year: Nothing much to do today, went hunting with Artemis (353).
September of the fifth year: Nothing much to do today, went hiking with Artemis.
October of the fifth year: Nothing much to do today, played in the water with Artemis.
November of the fifth year: You begin to reflect, Lin Ye, how could you be so depraved!
December of the fifth year: Nothing much to do today; enjoying the moon with Artemis.
Lin Ye………
Hey! That's slander! Do you think I'm the kind of person who's unambitious and just hangs out with girls all day?! Would I lie down like that?!
Well, you have a good eye for people.
[January of the sixth year: You saw this thing with your clairvoyance.]
On the island of Seriphos lived a mother and son. The mother was gentle, beautiful, and graceful, while the son was handsome, dashing, and incredibly brave. However, one day, King Polydectes of Seriphos took a liking to the son's mother, Danaë. If Danaë did not agree to his advances, she would have to pay countless sums of money and a horse as taxes. So, the son, Perseus, agreed to do something for the king in order to pay the heavy taxes...
"Once upon a time, the Gorgon sisters' performances were all the rage in Greece, but one day, for some unknown reason, they all disappeared. So, I want you to bring all three Gorgon sisters back for me to perform for! How about it?"
Hearing the king's words, Perseus confidently patted his chest and then said...
"It's a deal!"
Perseus set off.
Chapter 239 Perseus with Six Divine Armors
Artemis was overjoyed because Lin Ye hadn't lied to her; he really had returned.
During this time, she traveled and enjoyed nature with him, which was the happiest time of her life.
but……
[January 5th, Year 1: You go to Lin Ye's room wanting to play with him, but you find that Lin Ye is packing his things.]
"Honey! Where are you going?"
"To save a person."
"But if you leave here, you'll be hunted down by all the gods! What if... you can't come back?"
"Then, I'll go... ptooey... I'll definitely come back!" Lin Ye looked at you with unwavering determination, held up one finger, and said.
"If you don't believe me, let's make a pinky promise."
"But... okay."
Artemis wanted to say something more, but this time she didn't stop Lin Ye.
Just like when Lin Ye helped Orion without hesitation back then.
However, Artemis also understood that this method of shedding one's skin could only be used once and could never be used a second time!
The gods aren't fools; they'll immediately realize that Lin Ye isn't dead.
Of course, they wouldn't do anything to Artemis. After all, everyone is a Mecha God, and since their own Mecha God is still alive, they have no power to do anything to her.
But... what about Lin Ye?
Lin Ye is almost certainly going to die, but Artemis will not stop him.
Artemis is love-struck, but being love-struck doesn't mean being stupid. She understands that for someone like Lin Ye, some things are more important than life itself, so... she will let go.
"Darling...you promised me! You would definitely come back!"
[January 6th, Year 1: Lin Ye left. Watching Lin Ye's retreating figure, a smile appeared on your face. Then, your body transformed into light and soared into the sky.]
Lin Ye walked along, accompanied by moonlight.
Meanwhile, Perseus was also watching his simulation with great interest. His simulation had actually started quite some time ago, but Lin Ye had completely ignored him, so Perseus had essentially been playing a single-player game for the past period.
Until the Medusa quest appeared
[January 7th, Year 1: You arrive at the island of Phorcus and meet the Greière sisters. You learn the location of the Gorgon sisters from them and also receive the Kibisis bag "gifted" by them. It is a magical piece of equipment with its own protective barrier inside.]
So you set off towards your destination.
January 11th, Year 1: You finally arrived at the Island of No Return. Along the way, you saw many lifelike stone statues that sent chills down your spine.
Just as you were about to reach the cave where the Gorgon sisters lived, a strong gust of wind swept in, and you found yourself in an unfamiliar place. Before you appeared four figures.
"Father! Brother Apollo, Brother Hermes, Sister Athena, it's you all!"
Perseus looked excitedly at the figures in front of him. Weren't these his father and brothers?
Zeus had many sons, but his favorite was Hermes, whom he loved so much that he elevated Hermes from human form to become the messenger of the Olympians, making him arguably the foremost god.
The most powerful is naturally Hercules, but he hasn't been born yet.
The one who most resembles Zeus is Perseus.
It wasn't his appearance, but rather his aura—it was exactly the same as Zeus's back then, of course, only back then.
"To win a battle, you must know yourself and your enemy. Do you know who your opponent is?"
"Of course I know, Father. Aren't they the three Gorgon sisters? I'll just invite them to perform. Isn't that an easy thing to do?"
You don't understand. However, Zeus shook his head.
"Things are not that simple. The three Gorgon sisters used to be famous for their performances, but after a certain incident, they completely withdrew from the stage, and even when the main god invited them, they refused to comply."
However, the Gorgon sisters had too many followers, many of whom were kings and rulers from various countries. They were fanatical in their desire to possess the Gorgon sisters, so they sent countless people to fight them. And you've seen their fate.
Those stone statues are what they transformed into.
what!
Perseus understood everything. He'd been tricked! Polydectes must have known all along; he wanted him dead!
But once the arrow is released, there's no turning back. Perseus was a hero, and the quality that heroes generally possess is integrity; they always keep their promises!
Even death!
Seeing your shock, Zeus smiled and said...
"But don't worry, we'll help you."
After Zeus finished speaking, Hermes stepped forward, and with a wave of his hand, a long spear shaped like a scythe appeared in his grasp.
