"Not bad. The moment it was launched, it gave me the feeling that I had no way to avoid it and could only take it here. If what you have is the real thing, I might really be in danger this time." Helios revealed a maniacal smile: "Now that you have shown me your gift, as a god, I can't lose face in front of a mortal like you."
"Human, let me show you whether my fist is still as powerful as it was back then after all these years."
"Drink!"
With a surge of divine power, Helios appeared before Bai Ye and slammed heavily into his face.
Unlike Apollo, who was the son of Zeus, Helios was the son of the Titans Hyperion and Theia. In other words, he had pure Titan blood flowing through his veins!
Compared to the Olympian gods led by Zeus, the Titans clearly placed more emphasis on improving physical attributes.
Helios felt that since Bai Ye was so arrogant as to stand still and take his punch, then today's battle could come to an end. After all, he had not sensed the aura of the hostile Son of the Fool on Bai Ye before.
An ordinary person x a Titan?
The result is obvious, isn't it?
"So... what the hell are you 'hehehe'ing about?"
Seeing Helios, whose eyes had become unfocused after being hit by a barrage of attacks, and who seemed to be thinking about some hentai content, Bai Ye stiffly tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Was it a bit reckless to choose this guy as your first target?
This looks completely unreliable!
……
Chapter 071: The moment to flip the table and reveal the trump card!
Upon hearing Bai Ye's voice, Helios looked down and exclaimed in surprise.
"Human, you're still alive after taking this punch from me?"
"To put it bluntly, even if I stood here and you fought me for three days and three nights, you still might not be able to move me, believe it or not?"
"Haha, save those big words for when you actually send me back to mythology!" Helios laughed twice. "When that time comes, everyone will believe whatever you say. As for now, I don't want my opponent to get arrogant before the war even begins."
"You should worry about yourself first."
"Haha, just like you said, although I am not a god of war, I never underestimate my opponents in battle!" Helios laughed.
"Then let's fight!" Bai Ye raised his hand and flicked out a steel ball.
The steel ball expands to hundreds of times its original size the instant it leaves your hand, and its speed increases along with it.
After reaching peak speed, Helios keenly sensed...
The speed of this iron ball didn't change at all?
"drink!"
His right arm muscles swelled up, and the moment the steel ball came right in front of him, Helios exhaled and punched it.
Bang!
The moment the fist collided with the steel ball amplified a hundredfold, a deafening sound rang out. The steel ball was shattered by Helios's iron fist, and as a price, Helios himself was also carried backward a considerable distance by this mysterious impact.
"A very powerful blow."
When Helios flew back, his purple robe was in a disheveled state.
"Hmm... I suddenly feel that if the vow I just made had pierced through you instead of hitting your heart, would the final outcome have been much better?"
"What do you mean?"
"That's what I mean!" After consuming 10,000 Origin Coins, Bai Ye produced another blood-red spear in his hand, which he threw after a brief aim.
"I swear this, this gun will pierce the heart of that disobedient one before me!!!"
The previous shot had already proven that merely piercing the heart with a small hole would cause negligible damage to Helios once Gungnir's projection dissipated.
So after throwing Gungnir out, Bai Ye casually gave it a size boost.
Having learned his lesson from that "steel ball" last time, Helios didn't dare to be reckless this time.
Using your fist to smash a steel ball when you're confident is just showing off, but if you're already a bit weak, then using your fist to fight a powerful weapon...
Helios declared, "I am the sun god, not a stupid god."
"Come!"
In the current situation, it's safe to say that in the blink of an eye, Gungnir, thrown by White Night, will reach Helios.
In this situation, if he were to choose those words of power that require lengthy explanations, he would probably be shot before he could even finish reciting them. Therefore, Helios chose the simplest, most convenient, and most familiar one for him.
The Sun Chariot!
Legend has it that this was specially built by Hephaestus, the god of fire, for himself, the natural-born sun god, and a golden sun temple was also built at the same time.
Pulled by four fiery horses, Helios, riding in his sun chariot, narrowly escaped the attack of the White Night.
"Human, your speed is still too slow for us gods." Helios breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Bai Ye triumphantly: "If I wanted to, it would be a question whether your attacks could even catch up with me."
"..." Bai Ye silently pointed to Helios's chest.
Helios: "?"
"The gun in my hand is a projection of Gungnir. It has the property of always hitting its target. Coupled with my declaration before throwing it, it's not surprising that it hit you, is it?"
Seeing Helios with a large hole in his chest, from which golden blood was trickling down, Bai Ye kindly offered an explanation.
“Gungnir… So that’s it. No wonder it felt familiar.” Helios looked down at the gaping hole in his chest, where his heart had been vaporized by the bullet, and nodded in realization.
"However...aren't you underestimating the physical body of the Titans?"
"I am Helios, the born sun god, son of the Titans Hyperion and Theia. The blood of the Titans will grant me an immortal body!"
As the incantation ended, Helios, standing atop the chariot of the sun god, began to surge with power, and his body began to radiate a golden light.
As for the blood hole as big as a bowl on the upper body, it had already been repaired when the incantation was halfway through.
Having finished his incantation, Helios grasped the reins of the sun chariot, his eyes coldly fixed on the white night below.
Perhaps, Helios now has truly regained his demeanor as a god.
"So... we still have to use that thing?" After comparing the differences between the five sides, Bai Ye sighed, flipped his wrist, and a card appeared in his hand.
I originally intended to keep it as a backup plan; it's a trump card that costs 8.88 million Origin Coins to use.
Chapter 072 Helios's Request: Godslaying!
"Name: O Sun Wheel, submit to death!"
Type: Artifact
"property:?"
"Quality: Legend"
"Note: This divine spear was bestowed upon Karna by Indra upon him when he took away Karna's golden armor, moved by its noble qualities. It can burn and melt any being that is a 'single unit,' including monsters, phantoms, divine beasts, humans, shields, armies, cities, barriers, gods... (Warning: It will disappear after one use)"
This was the biggest surprise that the First Emperor had given Bai Ye after spending half a month on it, and the only treasure that Bai Ye could recycle for 888 million Origin Points at the original price and still feel that it was worth it.
Seeing the thoughtful expression on the First Emperor's face as he left after receiving the seven-figure sum, Bai Ye guessed that this guy would give him another big surprise in a while...
Or it might be a surprise without any joy.
Crushing the card and holding the ridiculously large spear inside, Bai Ye felt much more confident.
As for Helios on the other side, the moment the god-slaying spear appeared, he sensed an aura from his natural enemy, yet distinct from that of the Fool's Son.
Those sons of fools oppose themselves because of their duty, but this fellow before me…
"Hey kid, where did you get that thing?"
“It seems this thing will be quite useful to you.” Bai Ye slowly raised the spear in his hand, the tip of the spear locked onto Helios, who was still on the chariot of the sun god.
“It is very useful.” After a moment of silence, Helios acknowledged Bai Ye’s speculation.
"Then it's settled. Considering that my plan has gone relatively smoothly overall today, say your last words as a disobedient god in this world?"
Helios: "..."
No, I can't lose face as a Titan.
After looking around, Helios's gaze suddenly fell on Rhodes, an island that still worshipped him as a god even when the rest of Greece had abandoned his worship as the sun god.
“It’s clear you’re different from those fools who kill gods under all sorts of lucky conditions; you’re truly prepared. I don’t know what your plans are after this, but I have one request…”
"tell me the story."
"If you ever run into those Olympian bastards again, remember to beat them to a pulp, especially that Apollo bastard!"
white night:"……"
Well, let's send you back to mythology first.
The spear that slays the gods in his hand emitted a dazzling light, and a golden beam of light shot out from the tip of the spear, pointing directly at Helios. And Helios, just as he had said, stood on the chariot of the sun god with his hands on the reins, facing the attack with composure.
Nourishes—
The sizzling sound of something that makes your teeth ache as it's being roasted fills the air.
Watching Helios vanish into thin air amidst 8.88 million, Bai Ye maliciously speculated that the guy might be regretting activating his Titan form in the end.
The saying "die early and be reborn early" is often more than just an empty phrase.
The moment the God-Slaying Spear disappeared from his hand, Bai Ye's consciousness went haywire.
"Another energetic child, and surprisingly, from the moment he was awakened, everything proceeded according to the established plan. It seems this child's potential is far greater than the previous six... What do you say, Your Majesty the Sun God?"
"...Whatever makes you happy, I'm leaving now."
When Bai Ye recovered from his brief daze, the voice that sounded like Helios had disappeared, and he found himself in a white, misty space.
"system?"
"Don't worry, store manager, Dimensional Store is always ready to help you."
"OJBK."
Hearing the system's reply, Bai Ye felt relieved and began to look around at the surroundings.
I just heard two people talking, how come they all disappeared as soon as I arrived?
"Where are you looking?!"
"..."
"Look down, I'm here!!!" This time, there was a clear hint of displeasure in that sweet female voice...
Following his instructions, Bai Ye looked down and saw a little girl with long purple hair tied in pigtails looking at him with her hands on her hips.
"How rude of you! How could you ignore Mother's presence just because of your height? She clearly thinks you're quite promising and believes you can do better than the other six restless kids." The little girl pouted and complained to Bai Ye.
"...What did you just say, 'mother's thing'?"
"My dear mother, as the one who oversees the reincarnation rituals for you children, I have essentially bestowed upon you entirely new lives. Is there a problem?"
“I’m curious if you said the same thing to Luo Hao when she first came here.”
"..." x2
They exchanged a glance, and Bai Ye could clearly sense a hint of guilt in the little girl's eyes.
"Ugh, ugh, ugh! Why can't any of you kids just call me 'Mom' properly? Do the gods call you children of fools, so you really have to turn yourselves into problem children?" The little girl resigned herself to her fate and ruffled her hair into a mess.
"Forget it, getting angry with you guys would only hurt myself. Let me give you the reward you deserve first..."
"The authority from Helios, and the flesh that can rival the gods..."
As his consciousness returned to reality, Bai Ye lowered his head, clenched his fist, and could clearly feel that his body had undergone tremendous changes compared to before.
As for the powers obtained from Helios...
"Why is it this?" The tone made no attempt to hide the disappointment.
Chapter 073 The Authority of the Sun God
Bai Ye had also considered the question of killing the first god, after all, many gods in the legends of the past have wielded terrifying powers.
As a perfectionist, Bai Ye didn't want his first power to be something like making flowers bloom, grass grow, and crops yield a good harvest, even though at the level of powers, these powers would become quite terrifying.
