Marvel: Randomly load a protagonist template

The attack on Sanctuary by the Specters may seem dangerous, but the problem is actually not that serious.

If Athena hadn't decided to die once to go to the Underworld and completely settle things with Hades, those Specters would have had no chance at all. Moreover, the Gold Saints resurrected by Hades weren't truly loyal to him.

So there's no need to rush over there. Help Seiya find his sister first, gain her trust, and then you can go and help her.

Following the owl, they soon arrived at a small river outside a village, where a girl of about seventeen or eighteen was washing clothes.

"An owl, and a letter, here?"

The girl looked at the owl that had landed in front of her and the letter it was carrying in its beak, a look of surprise on her face.

Just then, a strange boy's voice suddenly rang out behind her.

"Sister, I've finally found you, sister!"

The moment Seiya saw the laundry girl in the air, he recognized her as his older sister Seika, whom he hadn't seen for seven years.

However, when Seika saw Seiya rushing towards her, she was completely dumbfounded.

"Sir, who are you? I don't think I know you."

"Sister, it's me, Seiya!"

Upon hearing Xinghua's words, Seiya was stunned; his sister didn't recognize him anymore.

"Seiya?"

When Xinghua heard the name, she felt an unusual sense of familiarity and warmth, but she just couldn't recall where she had heard it before.

"I'm sorry, you've probably mistaken me for someone else."

Hawking then stepped forward, retrieved the owl, and looked at Xinghua, asking:

"Miss, did you suffer a head injury and lose your memories?"

How did you know?

Grandpa said I fell off the mountain seven years ago, and he saved me. I really don't remember anything before I was injured.

Xinghua replied with a surprised look.

Apart from Grandpa, no one else in the village knew about this.

"Your sister has damaged her brain; I can treat her."

Patting Seiya on the shoulder, Hawking raised his hand and cast a spell on Xinghua, releasing all the memories sealed away due to his severe head injury from the depths of his mind.

"You are Seiya, my younger brother Seiya!"

Influenced by Hawking's magic, Xinghua's body stiffened, and then all her lost memories returned. She hugged Seiya and cried.

Seeing this, Shun's eyes immediately reddened as he thought of his older brother, Ikki.

"Thank you, Mr. Hawking, thank you for helping me find my sister!"

After calming down, Seiya immediately bowed ninety degrees to Hawking, his face full of gratitude.

Just as Hawking was about to speak, several exceptionally powerful cosmic forces suddenly erupted from the Sanctuary.

"Oh no! Something's happened at the Sanctuary!"

Seiya and Shun realized at the same time that only Gold Saints possessed such a powerful cosmos.

"Sister, wait for me in the village. I'm going to the Holy Land with my friends!"

After exchanging a few words with Xinghua, the three of them quickly rushed towards the Holy Domain.

The Sanctuary is protected by a barrier set up by Athena during the mythological era, which prevents even the Gold Saints from teleporting or flying within it.

At their speed, the three of them arrived at the entrance to the first house of the zodiac, Aries, in just a few seconds.

I also happened to see Aries Gold Saint Mu being beaten up by Deathmask.

"Pegasus Meteor Fist!"

The impulsive Seiya immediately unleashed his Pegasus Meteor Fist, sending Deathmask flying.

At this time, although Seiya did not have the Pegasus Cloth due to Hawking's influence, he still possessed the level of a typical Gold Saint thanks to his cosmos, which had awakened the Seventh Sense.

The primary function of the Saint Cloth is to protect the Saint's physical body; its enhancement of the Cosmo is limited.

Furthermore, Deathmask was originally the weakest of the Gold Saints, and now he's wearing a Surplice that was created on the spot, so his strength is even lower than it was in life.

"Seiya, Shun, and this one?"

Mu looked at the three people, including Hawking, who appeared in front of him, with a puzzled expression on his face.

Before Hawking could even introduce himself, Seiya began questioning Mu.

"Mu, why aren't you fighting back? With your strength, how can you keep taking the beating?"

As he spoke, he turned to look at the group of people dressed in ghost clothes, and his expression turned to disbelief.

"Desmus and Aphrodite, weren't they dead before? Are they ghosts?"

There are three people standing in front of them now. Two of them are the two Gold Saints who died in the battle of the Twelve Zodiac Palaces a year ago, and the other one is covered up so that his face cannot be seen.

Mu replied in a heavy tone:

"They are not ghosts; they are now Hades's Specters."

Next, Mu briefly explained the matter of the holy war.

"Therefore, the battle that follows is not something you Bronze Saints can participate in. Go back now!"

He knew the cruelty of the Holy War all too well. Only two Saints survived the last Holy War, so he didn't want Seiya and the others, whose strength was not yet sufficient, to participate now. This was also Athena's wish.

"We are Saints too! We will fight to protect Athena!"

Seiya and Shun clearly disagreed with Mu's order.

Just then, Deathmask and Aphrodite seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Seiya and Shun from behind.

"Let's talk this out, don't be in such a hurry to resort to violence!"

However, before their fists could even reach Seiya and Shun, they were blocked by a pair of hands.

It was Hawking, who was standing to the side, who took action.

He didn't kill the aquatic duo directly, partly because he knew that Deathmask and Aphrodite had repented after their deaths and hadn't come here to truly succumb to Hades's temptation to kill Athena.

Instead, he wants to team up with the former Pope of the Sanctuary, Shion, to stage a double agent drama.

On the surface, they were going to storm the Twelve Palaces to kill Athena, but in reality, they just wanted to see Athena in this life and tell her that only her blood could unlock the Athena Cloth, and only with the Cloth could Athena fight against Hades.

This is a secret known only to the Pope of the Holy Land.

Unfortunately, former Pope Shion was killed in the Saga Rebellion and did not have time to leave this secret behind.

On the other hand, these were all vital forces that would later fight against Hades.

It doesn't matter if you die. Since your soul is here, you can be resurrected through reincarnation.

"What are you? How can you catch both of our fists at the same time!"

When Desmarck and Aphrodite saw Hawking single-handedly withstand their combined attack, a look of confusion appeared in their eyes.

Because they didn't know Hawking, nor did they remember that there was such a powerful Saint in the Sanctuary.

Anyone who can withstand attacks from both of them simultaneously must be at least a Gold Saint.

The unexpected appearance of this character clearly disrupted the previous plans, so both of them turned to look at Shion.
