Hades's body had become very stiff. It seemed that he was facing a monster head-on, but he had no power to fight back. But no matter what, he fought until the last moment and was a respectable opponent. The Young Avengers did not
Choosing to move his body, he bypassed him and came to the back of the throne.
There is a portal leading to the Temple of Olympus. The good news is that the portal is still available. The bad news is that it seems that it was opened not long ago. If the mysterious eldest son has really been released, and
If you go to the Olympus Temple through the portal, then the Olympus pantheon is already in danger.
The few people did not hesitate and passed through the portal as quickly as possible. Mount Olympus was eerily quiet at this time.
Although the name is Mount Olympus, it is not a mountain, but more like a group of temples. In Clark's words, it is a community where gods live.
The first thing that catches the eye is the floating stairs. The long stairs to the gods go straight into the clouds. The huge temple is looming. There is the residence of Zeus. Surrounding it is the temple and garden of Hera. In addition to Hades,
, the temples of the Twelve Pillar Gods are arranged behind them, all hidden in the clouds and holy light.
The team members climbed up the long steps as quickly as possible and arrived at the door of the Temple of Zeus. Zeus was no longer on the throne, and the Queen Hera had also disappeared.
Dick and the others didn't dare to be too serious. They searched here carefully and found some subtle traces of fighting, but they didn't look like they were left by the eldest son, and they were obviously different from the wounds on Hades's body.
We bypassed the temple of Zeus and walked back, all the way to the temple of Ares, the god of war. The god of war has a high status, but his temple is relatively remote, because his duties are similar to Heimdall in Asgard, and he needs to guard Oris.
Mount Limpis is the entrance to everywhere.
Before he even got close to the temple, Dick had a very ominous premonition. Sure enough, there were many signs of destruction in the God of War's temple, which were almost exactly the same as those in the Temple of Hades, looking violent and wild.
Several people bypassed the front hall and came to the back of the temple, where they saw the tragically dead body of Ares, the God of War.
He was still hit on the chest, his head was taken away, and blood spattered everywhere. It seemed that he and the eldest son had a little bit of a fight, but unfortunately they lost in the end.
The investigation has reached this stage, and it is not wise to continue to pursue it rashly. It is time to summarize the clues obtained.
They returned to the temple of Ares and formed a circle in the center of the temple. Dick was the first to speak: "It seems that Hades was trying to prevent the eldest son from leaving Hades and fought with him, but unfortunately he was defeated, while Ares
It was to prevent the eldest son from leaving Mount Olympus, but he was also brutally murdered like Hades."
Jason shook his head and said, "No, that's not the case."
Everyone looked at him.
It is normal for Hades, God of the Underworld, to want to stop the eldest son, because the eldest son has enmity with the gods of Olympus. Once he leaves Hades and goes to Mount Olympus, Mount Olympus will inevitably flow into a river of blood.
As a member of God, of course he would stop it.
But Ares had absolutely no need to prevent the eldest son from leaving. On the contrary, for him, this terrible trouble was as far away from them as possible. As long as he didn't massacre Mount Olympus, no one would care where he went.
Moreover, the eldest son has no motive to leave Mount Olympus. If Zeus and Hera really imprisoned him, then his only enemies are his parents. Is it possible that he will go to Earth to seek revenge?
Although this mythical creature may not care about the lives of ordinary humans, he is not the kind of evil god who relies on absorbing human souls to gain power. He is already powerful enough to kill Hades with one move. Killing humans has no meaning for him.
The good thing is, why should he go to the human world through the portal of Mount Olympus when he has already come to Mount Olympus?
These words made others suddenly realize.
Indeed, from a motive point of view, it makes sense for Hades, God of the Underworld, to resist desperately. On the one hand, if he does not resist, the eldest son will never let him go. It is better to fight to the death. On the other hand, once the eldest son reaches the Olympics,
Sishan killed Zeus, and he had no backing. If he didn't kill Zeus, Zeus would definitely hold him accountable for his lack of supervision. Regardless of emotion or reason, Hades would have to try his best to stop him.
But Ares is completely different. If he could make this monster leave directly through the portal, it would be a great achievement.
But the problem is that the eldest son will not leave at all. All his enemies are here, where else can he go?
Jason spoke again: "So it is very abnormal for Ares to die here at the portal. Once the eldest son comes to Mount Olympus, he will definitely find trouble with Zeus first. How could Ares not go to support him?"
Everyone also began to think about this problem. Raven thought for a while and then said: "Could it be that he felt that he was more confident in dealing with the eldest son, so he sealed the portal first and tried to catch the turtle in the jar?"
"Impossible." Faust said aloud: "When the eldest son was born, Ares was there. If he was sure, he would follow Zeus's order and kill him directly instead of just killing him after a fuss.
Can seal him in Hades."
Raven thought about it and felt it made sense. After all, she didn't think Zeus and Hera had any affection for their eldest son. So sealing him in Hades must not only be to save his life, but also to have no choice but to do this.
Yes, if Ares was so sure, the eldest son would not have survived at that time.
"Is the portal really the scene of the first crime?" Aisha touched her chin and said, "I'll go back and take a look."
Aisha went back and walked around, and when she came back, she shook her head and said, "I didn't find any trace of the body being dragged, and the direction of the blood splattering was completely fine. I couldn't see the possibility of forgery. It seemed like he was indeed dead."
At the portal."
"Then there is only one possibility left." Dick said: "Ares knew he was outmatched and wanted to escape."
"Then it's impossible for him to go through this portal." Faust said: "You also saw that there were no signs of fighting in the palace of Zeus and Hera, but they disappeared. It is impossible for the eldest son to eat them.
, what is more likely is that the God King and God Queen had already received the news and took the gods out to seek refuge."
"So, Ares is the queen?"
"That's not right." Dick shook his head and said, "If Zeus and Hera can run so fast and cleanly, it proves that the situation was not very critical at that time. There is no need to leave a broken one behind. Ares can definitely compete with them.
Let’s go together.”
The inference reached an impasse again here. It seemed that neither situation was right, but Jason suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He said: "What if Ares is not the victim but the mastermind?"
Everyone cast curious glances at him.
"You see, it should have taken a while for the eldest son to escape from trouble, enter Hades, and kill Hades. Although Hades was defeated with one move, there was still time for Zeus between discovering the traces of the eldest son and confronting him.
A tip-off."
Everyone else nodded, thinking that Jason was right. Hades was the kingdom of Hades. Even if someone released the eldest son, it would be impossible for such a big thing not to alarm Hades before the eldest son actually came to him.
, he will definitely notify Zeus.
In other words, not long after the eldest son escaped from trouble, Zeus and Hera knew that he might come for him. They had probably suffered a loss at the hands of this powerful monster, so they chose to avoid the edge this time and led all the gods to temporarily evacuate.
Mount Olympus.
As soon as Zeus left, Mount Olympus was almost completely unsupervised. Anyone who stayed on the mountain at this time could do anything without obeying Zeus's orders, which was completely impossible under previous circumstances.
Dick thought for a while and then continued: "You mean, Ares stayed here on purpose so that he could do something while Zeus was away? So what does he want to do?"
"He wants to go to the human world." Jason said, "Just like Poseidon."
Only then did others remember that there was a key link in this series of events, that is, Poseidon suddenly appeared in Atlantis, which was very abnormal.
Although Poseidon is the god of the sea and has a close relationship with Zeus, Zeus is the king of gods after all. Without Zeus's permission, how could he dare to come down to earth and make trouble?
As for Zeus, the eldest son is facing a powerful enemy. Although they have a place to run, what if this guy chases him?
So for Zeus, the best thing to do is to twist all the power in the palm of his hand and use it to fight against the eldest son. If Hades really can't save it, forget it, but the God of War and the God of Poseidon are among the top combat powers on Mount Olympus.
, how could Zeus let them go to the human world to cause trouble at this time, instead of staying with him?
In other words, the God of War and Poseidon may not have obeyed Zeus's orders.
And as Jason proposed, changing the two of them from victims to perpetrators can explain all this. The two of them were waiting for Zeus to flee in a panic, and then took the opportunity to open the portal to the human world and cause trouble.
It is also possible that they knew that the eldest son would be out of trouble earlier than Zeus, and had been waiting for this day for a long time. It is even possible that the eldest son's escape from trouble had something to do with them.
From beginning to end, their purpose was to force the Zeus family to give up their control of Mount Olympus so that they could take advantage of it.
Funa shook her head and said: "But I don't see what benefit they have in the lower world. Their grudges on Mount Olympus have nothing to do with humans, right?"
Jason also fell into thinking, because he really couldn't see what the purpose of spending so much effort to get to the next realm was. It didn't seem to have any obvious benefits. Instead, Ares messed up and ran slowly.
He took a step forward and fell in front of the portal, risking his life in it.
At this time, Aisha said aloud: "You will know what they are going to do just by looking at Poseidon."
"Poseidon?" Jason whispered the name, thought about what Poseidon had done, and grasped the key.
"Poseidon did not intend to disrupt the Atlantic Ocean. The most harmful thing he really did was to attack Atlantis!" Jason suddenly understood something. He said: "And once something happens to Atlantis, Neptune will
Se can't ignore it."
Everyone looked at each other and said one word in unison: "Mercury!"
