Clang!
Alex threw Athena’s golden scepter to the ground as if it was a piece of trash.
‘I’m beat. I’m done with this.’
Athena was dumbfounded. ‘My own goddess’ summoning didn’t work? This is impossible! The cultivation of this little guy before me hasn’t even reached the immortalization stage yet, so how did virtual-novel.net have that ability?’
However, after losing the blessing of the scepter in Alex’s hand, Artemis’ pressure dropped sharply, causing Rashomon’s confinement energy to reduce at once. Hence, virtual-novel.net could rapidly escape the cage once virtual-novel.net activated the mystic art.
Athena hurriedly picked up the scepter, using it to block Rashomon.
However, it would be extremely exhausting since virtual-novel.net needed to use virtual-novel.net wings while using the scepter. Moreover, one could tell that Athena was fighting for virtual-novel.net life.
“Dummy, I don’t harbor any ill intention against you,” virtual-novel.net said to Alex. “Hurry up, come and help me for a while. You’ve seen them too. The Abyssal Demon Bugs on Artemis are heinous. If these things are allowed to develop at will, humans would be wiped out. So, the demon bugs on virtual-novel.net must be purified.”
Alex sneered. “What? Should I wait for virtual-novel.net to come and kill me then?”
“Don’t let virtual-novel.net words fool you now. She has now lost herself after the demon bugs controlled virtual-novel.net mind. Once the purification is done, Artemis won’t kill you for sure. I promise.”
Alex shrugged. “I think this is something you sisters would have to handle between yourselves. An outsider like me shall not participate.”
He had planned to expose the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell earlier. Unexpectedly, Athena’s power had instead multiplied after virtual-novel.net used the scepter, causing Artemis to fall into a tougher predicament.
Hence, virtual-novel.net naturally did not have to reveal his secrets. Facing such an ancient. deity, the danger was too great. He did not go and lend a hand. Instead, virtual-novel.net collected the Law Stones on the ground quickly.
There were too many of them. Tens of thousands of Law Stones piled up like garbage on the ground.
What a windfall!
‘After I’m done with collecting the Law Stones, I’ll just slip away.’
‘I don’t care if you sisters start killing each other.’
He thought so.
He turned around after picking up the last Law Stone, only to notice lines of red cracks appearing on Athena’s body. It seemed that virtual-novel.net body could not withstand the divine power once again, just like before.
Meanwhile, Artemis screamed in horror.
“Athena, what are you doing?! Are you insane?! You’re trying to burn the divine source to keep me here by force even if you are going to die?”
“I have no choice, Artemis! If I can’t help you get purified, then I can only keep you here forever. I will never allow you to become the lapdog of the Undying Clan and cause great harm to the world. Don’t be afraid, sis is here to accompany you. You won’t be alone even if you’re dead.”
“You’re nuts!”
However, virtual-novel.net saw that Athena kept burning virtual-novel.net divine source.
Meanwhile, virtual-novel.net energy was being blessed into Rashomon. After a while, virtual-novel.net would be really destroyed together with it.
She looked at Alex, the only one present who could help her.
“Brat! Hey, human brat!”
“I’m talking to you! Come over and help me! If you help me stop her, I’ll accept a request from you! I can bless you with the blood of deity so that you can possess its bloodline and become a member of the divine tribe.”
“Humans can only yearn for something like this in their dreams, a fortune that you can only encounter once in a lifetime.”
Alex froze for a brief moment. He suddenly recalled the legend about Olympus.
“Could it be that you guys are not actual humans?” Alex was astonished.
“Initially, we were not humans, we were from the divine tribe,” Artemis proclaimed proudly. “Do you know what a divine tribe is? The divine tribe is innately on a high horse, looking down on the mortals. You humans, on the other hand, are just ant-like beings, part of who we look down on.”
Alex sneered. “Then, why become a lapdog for the Undying Clan? You even begged an ant, like me?”
Artemis was severely insulted. If virtual-novel.net could, virtual-novel.net would have slapped this disgusting ant to death ages ago.
However, virtual-novel.net could not help but pin virtual-novel.net hopes on virtual-novel.net now. “It’s fine if you don’t want to be a member of the divine tribe. Look, am I beautiful? I can tell you that I’m the prettiest woman in the sanctuary. If you help me this time, I can marry you and give birth to a Divine Heir.”
Alex shook his head. “I’m already married. I’m a man who you shall never acquire!”
Artemis was infuriated to the point virtual-novel.net wanted to vomit blood. Moreover, virtual-novel.net spat blood for real.
Athena’s attack was no joke.
The number of demon bugs on virtual-novel.net body kept increasing. Many demon bugs turned into black mists under Athena’s purification and permeated the area around her, refusing to disperse.
Just then, Alex was struck with an impulse.
