Simulate the universe, starting with speedrunning Greek.

What was originally just a distant, imagined hero has become a real person.

That moment of satisfaction—

The thoughts that drove him to madness and madness were none other than his own deepest, true feelings.

She was just amplifying her emotions; she didn't become a different person.

In other words, Persephone also longed for it deep down, and had thought about it.

But the things they dared not do were acted upon first by physical impulses without their consent.

A sense of shame mixed with a secret delight; though aware of this feeling, a fear of admitting it.

That thought made her feel incredibly guilty.

Just like the early-stage priest Ma Po who was aware of his own flaws and imperfections, yet suppressed his evil and pretended to be good.

"I can grant you whatever you desire... well, except for that kind of thing." The Queen of the Underworld said this without even putting on her robes, a posture that showed absolutely no authority.

Even though she tried her best to maintain and transform back into the dignified and ladylike figure she was when she was the Queen of the Underworld, in the eyes of the Night, she was nothing but white and big, with no authority whatsoever.

Ye shook his head; he didn't want anything from the other person.

In fact, they even generously donated a considerable amount of money during the process.

"The only thing that can attract me in the underworld is probably you..." He spoke the truth. In this godforsaken afterlife, although there are many flowers and plants in the Elysée Garden, how could ordinary flowers possibly grow on the land of the underworld?

When he first arrived, he immediately recognized that those were nothing more than empty shells conjured by divine power.

In this wasteland where even flowers cannot grow, there are either vengeful spirits or difficult-to-get-along-with, eccentric deities.

Persephone's unique beauty, especially the tender white appearance of a peeled eggshell, is the most alluring sight for a man.

In the underworld, the environment and the noble status of the Queen of the Underworld make her all the more precious.

"What?!" Persephone looked at the man in front of her, who was now looking at her calmly, his gaze meeting hers without wavering.

However, she couldn't be as open and honest as the other person, even after she realized from their eyes that they didn't mean to sever ties with her.

Persephone was humiliated and annoyed, but there was also a hint of joy and pleasure mixed in...—and then he fled in panic.

She was afraid that if she continued like this, she would lose herself.

Ye didn't pay attention. He felt his body and found that he had become stronger after spending the night with the Queen of the Underworld. He also felt a sense of clarity and purity in his soul. At this moment, the aura of the laws in the Underworld was becoming more and more familiar, as if it regarded him as half a master.

In the neighboring Egyptian world, Set was corrupted by Osiris, causing his power to surge and turn evil; here, he was corrupted as well, but he corrupted Hades and cuckolded Hades... His power also surged.

But comparing the two, the experience is like heaven and hell.

Is this the price to pay for becoming stronger? It's indeed 'heavy'! Watching Persephone tremble and stagger as she left, her snow-white thighs swaying faintly beneath her robes, Ye sighed inwardly.

He then went out and met Niu Niu, who was guarding the gate.

From those hesitant, not yet fully humanized words, Night revealed its previous appearance: Hades, the god of the underworld, healed Niu Niu and even guarded the gate for him.

The other party seemed to already know about his relationship with Persephone, but did not blame him. They even wanted to meet him and recruit him.

Ye was amazed by this mindset of the strong, but politely declined to comment.

Night's expression gradually turned strange...

A crucial question came to mind: 'Does this count as legally dating a ghost?'

If even Hades doesn't care, what is he afraid of? The biggest crisis seems to be over.

As for the issue of offending Zeus...

It reminds me of the myth that Zeus would disguise himself as Hades to steal people.

Didn't Zeus become Hades before?

Goodness gracious—it seems like he's unwittingly stumbled into a mythological movie set again.

Night, unaware that he had unintentionally killed Zeus, was now completely consumed by the power of the gods. But whether he had or not, it didn't matter. After several encounters, it was clear that he and the strongest god-king would become enemies. Night's mind was now filled with nothing but how to kill the god-king.

He used to avoid gods like the plague, but now that he's grown up and they've become enemies, why not try to kill them instead of keeping them around for the New Year?

As for how to kill Zeus—Ye recalled that in a few worlds where the mythology didn't follow the normal historical trajectory but rather the game's mythology, there was indeed a clear way to kill Zeus.

The most famous example is the God of War series, where Kratos travels back in time with countless Titan ancestors to the future to attack Mount Olympus.

After that magnificent war, Greek civilization was shattered, and the world was engulfed by tsunamis, plagues, thunderstorms, and lava flows.

Even the devastating flood created by Jehovah wasn't this terrifying.

Kratos traveled back in time along the timeline using artifacts controlled by the Fates. It is unclear whether the Fates in this world possess artifacts that can so easily interfere with cause and effect.

But just because he couldn't go before doesn't mean he can't find allies now.

To fight against Zeus, it is inevitable to confront his twelve chief gods.

However, the twelve Olympian gods were not entirely loyal to the king of gods, even though they appeared to be on good terms.

In addition—if the Titans were mentioned.

Night looked towards the dark sky of the underworld, towards the underground river she had crossed when she swam across the River Styx.

Deep within the abyss of Tartarus, in that hellish place, if the records are correct, lies a large number of Titans left over from the last war of the gods, including the powerful Hundred-Handed Giant whom even Zeus feared, and Cronus, the second-generation god-king.

However, unless absolutely necessary, Ye doesn't really want to cooperate with these Titans.

Chapter 249 Striving to be like the big shots such as Super God, Mercury Serpent, and Hercules Emperor

The Titans and the twelve Olympian gods have a deep and irreconcilable conflict.

If those guys were allowed to come out, not only Zeus, but also Zeus's children Artemis, Athena, and Apollo would be implicated.

Especially the second-generation god-king, Cronus, would not show mercy just because these are nominal grandchildren.

Greek gods were inherently ruthless, not only towards their enemies, but also towards themselves, and even more so towards their loved ones.

If we don't rely on the Titans' power, then according to Night's current network of relationships, the only ones we can unite are the Goddess of the Hunt, the God of Light, the Goddess of Wisdom, and Hades—yes, Hades too.

Hades allowed himself to get involved with Persephone, and before that, he had caused such a commotion with Zeus. It's impossible that Hades was completely unaware of the situation, yet he still dared to leave himself behind to observe.

Hades clearly harbored resentment towards Zeus for some time.

If we also include the ever-ambitious Poseidon, and Helios, the sun god who has always been unpopular due to his alignment with one side, along with his sisters, then half of the twelve Olympian gods are actually potential targets for swaying.

Among them are two who are even nominally on par with Zeus, who is the king of the gods. Apart from lacking the title of king of the gods, they are also kings of the gods: Hades and Poseidon.

Even though Ye had beaten up Poseidon once before, Ye didn't believe that Poseidon would be able to resist getting involved once the war against Zeus started.

Even if Poseidon wanted to be the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind, Night naturally had ways to drag him into this mess beforehand.

We need to continue to increase our strength!

It's not just about one's own strength, but also the power behind them.

Unless one possesses power as great as a Dyson sphere (its size is roughly equal to that of a star itself), or even a decadent wind (a two-digit figure in a miniature world that transcends the realm of omnipotence), a mercury serpent (a domineering god who ranges from a single universe to a multiverse), a toilet cleaner—cough, it's a powerful being like Heracles (a multiverse-level creator god of light who combines the names of the three Egyptian Gods with the name of the Pharaoh).

Even—the Supreme God Chronos (Saint Seiya World Edition, the God of Time who transcends and dominates all timelines of the past, present, and future, an immortal being who has survived in the eternal timeline, a unique god who exists only once in all timelines, in any multiverse, and in the three thousand great worlds.)

If he could succeed on any one of these paths, it wouldn't be a dream for him to single-handedly crush Greek mythology; he could easily hold the little ball in his palm and knead it at will.

Although those high-end big shots are still far away from him, everyone should have some dreams.

But his dream may have become so big that the world can no longer contain it.

It was so vast that even the world of Greek mythology, which could hold countless heroes such as Hercules, Achilles, and Orion, could not contain it.

In short, increase your strength, win over those who can be won over, and finally raise the banner of rebellion against Zeus.

It doesn't matter if we fail.

Ye even had a vague idea that when he completed the story of the Greek universe, which was an important historical segment or a period of historical transition, he would want to wait until then.

After passing through this unchangeable myth—which, if altered, would give rise to singularities and Lostbelts that have a significant impact on human history—the simulation of the Greek universe will be reset and will then descend upon a new time period.

It wasn't impossible for him to go back to the past at that time.

Although it's unclear whether changing the past will affect the future or create multiple parallel branches, Night has made it clear that no matter how many times it repeats, she will repay Zeus, that old devil, for his idea.

Ye, who had been constantly targeted, wouldn't feel at peace until he killed him once.

He might be a bit like Kratos, which is that if he's going to kill you, he'll kill you. If once isn't enough, he'll do it twice, and if twice isn't enough, he'll do it N times... He keeps trying, getting stronger and stronger until he crawls out of hell and smashes Zeus's head on the ground to burst into juice.

Killing him outright like this seems too lenient on him.

Zeus is known for his fondness for beating people up, and he's bisexual, but he's usually the one on the offensive.

After all, no one dares to force a god-king to be a dwarf.

Ye thought that if he had the chance, he could treat Zeus to a wild gorilla meal. The way that old bastard looked at him before had made him feel a little disgusted.

Considering his inhuman acts in mythology, Ye has reason to suspect that he wasn't thinking anything good back then.

But before we kill this old bastard, it seems like reporting on his daughter first would be... not bad?

Although Persephone has been deliberately avoiding Night's presence these past few days, she always manages to let Night discover her figure and find her location.

When countless coincidences come together, all that can be said is that if you're still foolish enough not to react at this point and genuinely believe it's just a coincidence, then you're not a real man.

While the outside world is in turmoil, the underworld is tranquil and peaceful, in the dreamlike Elysee Garden.

That night, they found Persephone leaning against a tree, smelling the flowers.

After countless hints over the past few days, I finally sensed that Griffith was coming to me. Before, he seemed to only know how to fight alongside that silly bull and teach him some fighting techniques.

If the strongest minotaurs with terrifying brute force were to master the skills, how terrifying would it be if these powerful monsters learned the heroes' ability to overcome the strong and survive?

When Night approached Persephone, who couldn't resist asking, he gave a roughly similar reply.

A slight smile played on his lips, indicating that he was looking forward to that day...

Night was cultivating his own team, and he was never stingy in sharing his methods for becoming stronger with his own people.

Persephone was stunned and shocked upon hearing this answer, as if he had imagined some terrible scene.

That terrifying power, capable of defeating even gods, is already formidable without systematic training. Imagine how terrifying it would become if one mastered its techniques.

Chilling.

At the same time, on the other side——

Whether it was because Night saw through Persephone's little tricks and the irrepressible desire in his heart, he ignored all the coincidences and instead kept Persephone hanging.

Now the roles of offense and defense have shifted.
