The Greece Antagonist-Chapter 608 - 86 The Husbands Defensive Battle (4.5k)_2

Chapter 608: Chapter 86: The Husband’s Defensive Battle (4.5k)_2 Chapter 608: Chapter 86: The Husband’s Defensive Battle (4.5k)_2 Athena replied in a somber voice, looking at the metal cold light that blotted out the sun in the sky above the sea; after her gaze flickered deeply for a moment, she slowly began to speak.

“At first, after experiencing the Divine War and catastrophe, the earth was desolate and in ruins. The Bronze Clan, made of metal and impervious to both heat and severe cold, was created to serve as a tool for transforming the environment and reshaping civilization. For example, there were Mechanical Gods modeled after Zeus responsible for manipulating the weather, improving the climate; Mechanical Gods modeled after Demeter in charge of improving the soil, and re-cultivating plants; and Mechanical Gods modeled after Artemis tasked with hunting down Magic Beasts causing trouble and eradicating the inducers of catastrophe…

But later, as they evolved continuously, they not only cultivated high intellect but also fantasized about stealing the names of gods, usurping Divine Power, and even coveting the authority of the gods. It was because of such presumption that Zeus decided to destroy them; among the several apocalyptic events, I believe it was the only time Zeus did the right thing.”

Medusa listened to this secret history of the Bronze Age, her eyes reflecting deep thought.

Aside from their presumption, the reason for the destruction of the Bronze Clan included their terrifying ability to reproduce and replicate. If they were allowed to develop and grow their population unchecked,

then it was possible that the entire God Era World’s resources would be exhausted by the Bronze Clan.

Moreover, in their proliferation and evolution, they not only failed to provide faith to the gods but also created their own deities, intending to snatch the authority of the gods. Such audacious behavior naturally could not be tolerated by the gods.

“What should we do, then? Aren’t we going to help?”

...

Medusa pointed at the incessant fighting of the metal frenzy and Typhon’s Demon Army on the sea and quietly asked Athena who was beside her.

Athena glanced at a figure buried in the ruins and jokingly said,

“Don’t rush; our Lord of the Sea hasn’t made his move yet. How could we possibly take all the glory for ourselves?”

After all, being an Immortal Chief God, even if he had been tricked by Typhon, it would at most result in a few bruises and strains. The Lord of the Sea was far from being at death’s door.

And he would rather be buried under stones than make an appearance, most likely because of an old habit of refraining from taking risks for the sake of a big picture, not daring to confront the obviously stronger Typhon head-on.

However, Athena wasn’t in a hurry either.

After all, with the coastal wall and the vast army of the Bronze Clan in front to shield them, even if the sky were to fall, it wouldn’t hit them first. It was a matter of who could outlast the other.

At this moment, Demon Ancestor Typhon, furious at having his beasts driven back over the Stormy Sea, once again opened his gigantic mouth and frantically absorbed the surrounding Magic Factors, turning them into streaks of crimson light.

Seeing this familiar scene, the frontline Mechanical God Chaos felt its core tremble, and it hurriedly turned back to the coastal wall behind it and roared,

“Poseidon! Won’t you help? Without the support of my clan, your Sea God Temple won’t stand a chance either!”

That mechanical voice unexpectedly revealed a rare touch of human-like annoyance.

Hearing that direct call for help, Poseidon could no longer hide. He had to pretend to have just regained his senses and bravely emerged from the gravel, joining Mechanical God Chaos to fend off Demon Ancestor Typhon’s assault.

It was then that Athena, too, ceased her rest and turned her head to Medea beside her.

“Let’s go, we should make our move as well. If we push too hard, there’s no guarantee that our Lord of the Sea won’t flee from the battlefield.”

“Shouldn’t we wait for the other Chief Gods?”

Medusa looked back towards the city-states scattered behind the coastal wall and asked her goddess in confusion.

According to the initial plan, once the enemy was spotted, all gods and city-states participating in the alliance at War God Mountain were obligated to aid their allies.

Normally, they should have arrived by now.

“Don’t wait any longer,” Athena waved her hand lightly and responded, “I sent them to Thessaly.”

“Thessaly?” Medusa was momentarily puzzled, looking a bit bewildered, “What are they doing there? Isn’t it the coastal wall that’s under attack?”

Athena flicked her finger against Medusa’s smooth forehead and asked with annoyance,

“Success lies in secrecy, failure in revelation. This Demon Ancestor has been making such a grandiose advance from the Chaos Sea Domain, crossing the entire Sea of Okeanos, prepared to land and ascend to Olympus. Setting aside the success rate of this route for now, do you think such a showy approach is in its style?”

Medusa rubbed her slightly reddened forehead, glancing resentfully at her goddess, who was quick to physical reprimand. Her thoughts, muddled by the physical prompt, gradually became clear.

“Are you suggesting… a feint?”

“Then, what is its purpose?”

“To use this as bait to tie down Sparta, Corinth, Mycenae, and other city-states’ elite forces and deities along the way! And then, taking advantage of the emptiness behind us, they’d strike Thessaly in one fell swoop without our front and rear being able to look after each other!”

Medusa furrowed her brow in thought and earnestly presented her answer, then suddenly realized, looking at Athena beside her,

“So, the real battlefield isn’t at the coastal wall but in Thessaly! No wonder you haven’t seemed worried from the beginning…”

Athena nodded slightly, her eyes deep and profound.

“Until the situation becomes clear, we just need to guard the coastal wall well. After all, compared to the threat in front of us, the venomous fangs approaching from behind might be even more deadly!”

Although Medusa agreed with her goddess’s judgment, she couldn’t help but mutter under her breath, “But there was no need to send away the gods of Olympus who could have helped.”

“Idiot!” Athena snorted coldly and promptly gave the Lesser Deity a harsh knuckle to the head, speaking irritably, “Now that the feint has begun, do you think the main attack is far off? If I’m not wrong, the Giant Spirit Clan has probably already begun action in Thessaly. If we have to call for support at the last minute, who knows if they’ll be able to hold their ground!”
