June of the fifth year: You are now truly capable of standing on your own.
June 23rd of the fifth year: The festival of Poseidon begins, and you, as the gods subordinate to Poseidon, are invited by Poseidon to perform at the palace of Poseidon...
"Let's go perform at the Temple of Poseidon!"
At this moment, Stheno and Euryale were also utterly shocked! This time was different from usual!
This time, the audience watching their performance! They were the gods of ancient Greece!
Chapter 236 Poseidon and Athena
November 22st
"Why hasn't my darling shown up yet?"
On Mount Olympus, Artemis, the moon goddess, spoke idly.
Lin Ye hasn't appeared all these years, and sometimes Artemis even wonders if he's forgotten about her.
But at that very moment, a voice suddenly rang in her mind.
[Life simulation is about to begin. Would you like to participate?]
whether]
brush!
In an instant, Artemis's eyes lit up!
"Honey!"
Artemis missed Lin Ye so much that she almost instantly chose yes, forgetting for a moment that they were in a meeting.
Meanwhile, Zeus, clearly unaware of what was happening, stood before the eleven Olympian gods plus Hermes and spoke...
"Today we're discussing the ownership of this newly built city-state. I have a premonition that this city will become one of the greatest cities in the world. So, who among you is willing to become the guardian of this city-state?"
The Olympian gods, though they were once mechanical gods, have now broken free from their mechanical ways and become true native gods, so they still care a lot about faith.
And the identity of a guardian deity is naturally what they are most passionate about.
Upon hearing Zeus's words, the assembled gods exchanged glances. They all understood: since Zeus declared this one of the greatest cities of the future, ordinary people weren't qualified to compete; only five were truly eligible!
Zeus, the king of the gods; Hera, the queen of the gods; Poseidon, the lord of the sea; Hades, the god of the underworld; and Athena, the goddess of victory and wisdom.
Hades immediately began to speak.
“I wasn’t interested in these things, so I quit.”
Hades, the god of the underworld, is naturally a kind-hearted man who doesn't fight with the world.
Zeus was also embarrassed to compete with these people, after all, he was the king of the gods, and no matter who the patron god of any city was, he would always receive an offering.
Queen Hera also stepped forward, saying, "I'm not interested either."
Even Zeus isn't going to try, so she's even more embarrassed to try, and besides, she couldn't possibly win anyway.
For a moment, the two figures stared at each other.
Poseidon and Athena were of similar strength, so naturally neither was willing to give in to the other.
"Athena, don't you know what it means to respect your elders? Don't fight with your uncle for this city."
“Uncle Poseidon, you know you’re an uncle, why are you arguing with a junior? Besides, you control the entire ocean, you don’t need to care about this small city.”
The two looked at each other with sarcastic remarks.
Seeing the two of them like this, Hermes stepped forward. As clever as he was, he almost instantly came up with a solution to the problem.
"Well... you two, let me say something. Since neither of you is willing to give up, how about we have a little competition?"
"What competition?" Poseidon asked directly.
"Since you are to become the guardian deities of humanity, then each of you should give humanity a gift. If Poseidon wins, the city will be named Poseidonville; if Athena wins, it will be named Athens. What do you think?"
“Alright! It’s a deal!” Poseidon stepped forward confidently. “It’s just a gift, I’ll go first!”
Poseidon brandished his trident!
brush!
In an instant, the mountains collapsed and the earth split open, and then a white celestial horse galloped straight out from the ground!
Pegasus! That is, the constellation Pegasus.
Pegasus, Saint Seiya, Pegasus Meteor Fist... In short, Pegasus is quite famous.
Looking at the majestic Pegasus, Poseidon said with absolute confidence, "What do you think! This is the Pegasus I created! With this Pegasus, the people of Poseidonwill will surely be invincible!"
“I support Uncle Poseidon!” Ares stood up instantly.
He's the god of war, of course he'd support war!
On the other side, however, Athena shook her head. With a flick of her spear, a verdant tree sprouted from the ground, its branches laden with emerald-green fruit, a truly captivating sight.
"This tree is called the olive tree. Its fruit can be eaten, used in medicine, and even pressed for oil! Great King Zeus, Poseidon's Pegasus will bring disaster, but my olive tree can bring wealth and peace. Zeus, please make your decision."

Upon hearing Athena's words, all the gods present exchanged glances, and then a group of them began to form teams.
On Athena's side, Hestia, Demeter, Hephaestus, and Venus...
On Poseidon's side, only Ares and Hades remained.
Although Apollo was still urging Artemis on, the outcome was already decided.
"I hereby declare! The name of this city from now on will be Athens!"
As Hermes announced the results, olive trees fell from the sky and rained down upon the earth!
"Hmph!" Seeing this, Poseidon snorted coldly and turned back to the sea!
... ..... ...
[June 23rd of the fifth year: Neptune's Day]
On this day, all the gods of the sea god pantheon gathered together, singing and dancing in a joyful atmosphere.
On stage, Stheno and Euryale are singing the songs they've learned, and all the gods are applauding them, however...
"What kind of performance is this?!"
Poseidon, however, angrily stopped the two sisters, and at that moment, all the gods fell silent. None of them could bear Poseidon's rage, and since no one knew what had happened, they could only watch as Poseidon unleashed his fury from his throne!
At that moment, Medusa, dressed in a black suit, with long hair reaching her waist and wearing glasses, gracefully approached Poseidon.
“Lord Poseidon, please calm down. Is there anything you are dissatisfied with regarding our performance? If so, we will certainly correct it.”
Medusa knew Poseidon's unpredictable temper, and looking at Medusa before him, the drunken and disgruntled Poseidon said...
"Change it? No need to change it! Now, you three sisters go to Athens! And smash the Temple of Athena to pieces! I want the people of Athens to know that the only god who can protect them is me, Poseidon!"
"What? Lord Poseidon, this..." Medusa wanted to say something, but at that moment, Poseidon took out his trident and coldly said to Medusa...
"You... why aren't you going yet!" [Death]
Chapter 237 Godslayer! Poseidon!
Faced with Poseidon's command, what could these minor gods do? The three Gorgons were just ordinary minor gods, the kind who didn't even have a divine position. How could they refuse?
Many people know Medusa as a monster in ancient Greek mythology, but many do not know that Medusa was originally an ordinary goddess. So why did she become the terrifying Gorgon?
In Earth's history, Medusa was targeted and harassed by Poseidon. She came to Athena's temple seeking Athena's protection, but Athena refused. As a result, Poseidon defiled Medusa in Athena's temple. An enraged Athena was unable to punish Poseidon, so she blamed Medusa for the crime of defilement and turned her into a monster.
However, this is not the case in the history of Type-Moon. In the Type-Moon world, Medusa and Poseidon have no connection at all, but in the background of the character "353", Medusa was still cursed by Athena and turned into a monster.
Lin Ye didn't know what was going on at first, so he kept blaming Athena, but now he understands.
So this whole mess is actually Poseidon's doing!
If you send Medusa to smash Athens, it's no wonder Athena is furious! The problem is, you really can't blame Athena for this.
Your house was smashed up, and you turned the culprit into a monster—that logic really applies to them.
At this moment, two choices appeared before Lin Ye.
Faced with Poseidon's coercion, you choose:
Option 1: Agree to Poseidon's order to destroy Athens (activate the Avenger Gordian Line)
Option 2: Refuse Poseidon's orders and rebel directly (unlock the Rider Medusa route)
"Gorgon and Sister R..." Two storylines, two completely different lives.
Lin Ye once said that she liked both Anna and R-sister. To be honest, Lin Ye didn't dislike the Gorgon from Avengers either. Of course, it was Anna's Gorgon, not the Warcraft goddess. This is an important point.
Just like in One Piece, Boa Hancock is beautiful, but isn't Shirahoshi also attractive?
Lin Ye is the kind of man who wants it all, but there's one thing to be careful about: will Medusa like Gorgon himself?
