Christine felt a surge of gratitude towards these unprecedented parents and said, "I understand, thank you, Christ."

Chris, the old butler, smiled slightly and said, "Hehe, it's good that you understand. Actually, you shouldn't blame the God Lord and your mother. After all, their status determines that they cannot enjoy family happiness like ordinary humans. Because the marriages of the gods are all personally arranged by that one, and only a few main gods can refute that one's wishes. I hope you can understand your parents. Although they are gods, they have it tough too."

Ps:

This chapter wasn't written to my satisfaction, but that's roughly the gist of it.

One absorbs the sun's energy to strengthen herself, and the other is the daughter of the sun god from two major pantheons; they seem like a good match.

Chapter 102 The Test

Ps:

My collection is dropping like crazy, okay, I'm too lazy to ask anymore, I'll just leave it at that.

Furthermore, since Odin's Asgard has appeared in this world, it's perfectly reasonable for Zeus's Mount Olympus to appear in this world as well, isn't it? This way, I can freely assign the female protagonist any kind of cheat ability.

Christine and her old butler left New York and sped across the seabed. On the way, Christine finally learned the true identities of her parents: Helios, the sun god in Greek mythology, and Sur, the sun goddess in Norse mythology. This shocked her but also filled her with joy—the joy of being able to help Adam and have the opportunity to fight alongside him.

Thinking of Adam, Christine realized that Adam would be very worried if he knew she was missing, so she said, "Oh no, Adam will definitely be worried if he can't find me. We should talk to him, after all, Adam is no ordinary person."

Chris smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, your boyfriend is probably trying to find us right now. He left something in your necklace."

Upon hearing this, Christine asked in confusion, "What? Does that mean he installed a locator in my necklace? That's great, then he can use that to find me."

Chris nodded and said, "That's right. It seems your boyfriend isn't so indifferent to you after all. However, becoming the God Lord's son-in-law isn't an easy thing. He has to pass several tests designed by the God Lord before he can even meet you."

Christine pouted and said, "Hmph, I have complete faith in Adam. He will definitely be able to complete all the trials."

Chris laughed heartily upon hearing this, saying, "Excellent, then let's wait and see. Haha, alright, let's speed up, we're almost there." With that, he drove his car into a streak of black light and disappeared into the seabed, reappearing outside a very classical palace.

Christine looked at the grand hall outside, a feeling of joy and closeness welling up inside her. She turned her head and asked, "Could this be the Temple of the Sun, my father's temple?"

Christine nodded and said, "That's right, this is the Temple of the Sun. It's where your parents stayed in this world, though only for a few months, but enough for them to become self-sufficient. However, before you enter the temple, I need to ask you a serious question: are you truly ready to enter this dangerous world? If you are not ready, I will send you back to New York, but your memories of today will also be erased. From now on, you will be a mortal, Christine Christine, not the goddess Christine Helios."

Christine said resolutely, "I've made up my mind. I need to be worthy to stand with Adam. I need the strength to fight alongside him, and I don't want to lose this memory. Let's go in." She didn't want to watch Adam fight the enemy while she could only worry at home, like she had before. She wanted to fight alongside Adam. She hadn't had the chance before, but now that she did, she had to seize it, not give up out of fear. She needed power!

Christine had barely finished speaking when her body began to emit a powerful light. Then, with a loud bang, Christine's body stiffened. However, this terrifying scene didn't faze Chris. Instead, he watched calmly, as if everything were perfectly normal.

Chris looked at Christine, who was engulfed in flames, and said calmly, "A good choice, Miss Christine, because this way your talent will not be wasted, and you can truly live freely in this world!"

Just then, a majestic voice entered Chris's ears: "Chris, I'm taking Christine into the temple. We underestimated this child's talent. If we continue to let her awaken outside, that old man will probably be able to sense it soon. We have to be careful."

Chris replied very respectfully, "Yes, my lord!"

The voice just now was none other than Helios, the god of Christ and Christine's father, the sun god. He continued, "You stay here alone and wait for that man named Adam. I have designed several tests. If he passes them, he will receive a clue. If he comes to you within a day, bring him in directly; if he comes within three days, inform me; if he comes within a week, have him wait outside; if more than a week has passed, even a second later, send him back to where he came from. Although the goddess of prophecy said those things, not many of the things that madwoman says are true!"

Chris nodded and said, "I understand, God!" He then stood quietly in place, waiting for Adam's arrival, while a clock appeared beside him and began to count down.

Meanwhile, Adam left the company and sped off towards Greece at full speed. Just as he entered Greek airspace, he suddenly felt unwell and nearly fell from the sky.

Adam quickly landed on the ground and said, "Athena, quickly scan my body."

Athena didn't reply, but a very pleasant voice appeared in his mind: "Hehe, you named your AI program Athena. If that crazy woman knew, she would be furious."

Adam was startled, but quickly regained his composure and asked, "Who are you?"

The mysterious voice seemed to appreciate Adam's composure, saying, "Not bad, you're a little surprised but not flustered. No wonder he's willing to let you continue dating Christine."

Upon hearing Christine's name, Adam hurriedly asked, "Who are you? What happened to Christine? And who is this 'he' you're talking about? Why do I need his permission for what I have with Christine?"

The mysterious voice chuckled slightly and said, "Interesting little fellow, alright, I won't tease you anymore. I am Christine's mother, and you are not qualified to know my name for now. The man I just mentioned is Christine's father, and similarly, you are not qualified to know his identity. As for Christine, she is currently with her father and is perfectly safe. If you want to see her, you must pass several tests that we have set. If you can pass the tests, I will agree to your relationship with Christine. However, if you fail the tests, I'm sorry, I will erase your memories of Christine."

Adam's mind raced, analyzing the situation. Without Athena's help, he had to rely on his own intellect. He had created Athena simply to be an assistant and confidante, not a supercomputer. His own mental capacity was no less than that of any supercomputer, and after several enhancements, his current mental capacity was unmatched by any supercomputer on Earth. He usually used Athena simply because he was used to it.

"You are gods?! Although I don't know your true identities, one thing I'm clear about is that gods really do exist in this world, hehe."

The mysterious voice praised, "Not bad. You've analyzed our fragmented words and concluded that we are gods. You've passed the initial test. Alright, your trial begins the moment you set foot in Greece. You will face several difficult trials. Since you know we are gods, you should know that such trials are beyond the capacity of a human like you. So if you give up, I will not punish you!"

Adam replied calmly, "Alright, please stop testing me. I will not back down. Although you claim to be Christine's parents, I cannot believe it until I see it with my own eyes. So please tell me the location of the next test. I don't want to waste any more time here."

The mysterious voice chuckled slightly and said, "Hehe, not bad, you do have courage. Alright, you've passed my test. If you had shown even the slightest hesitation just now, I would have thrown you into the sun."

Adam was speechless. Just a moment ago she said she wouldn't blame him, but now she's saying she'll throw him into the sun. Sure enough, women's minds are unfathomable.

The mysterious voice continued, "Although I know you're thinking some rude thoughts right now, what can I do? You're the man my daughter has fallen for, and you even tricked her into bed. I won't say anything now, but if you fail the test later, I will make you lose your manhood forever. Please trust a mother's resolve. Thank you."

Adam really wanted to complain at this moment, but firstly, the other party was stronger than him for the time being, and secondly, the other party was his mother-in-law, and she knew that he had put her daughter in bed with him, so he felt it was strange to be scolded by his mother-in-law.

The mysterious voice seemed quite pleased with Adam's performance, saying, "Alright, the first test is about to begin. You must go to the Temple of Athena in Athens and remove the two sapphires from the eyes of the statue of Athena. Once you have the gems, I will tell you the next step." After saying this, the voice disappeared, as if it had never been there.

Chapter 103 Test Two

Follow and give more support! Christine was taken to the Temple of the Sun by her old steward Chris, who inspired the powerful divine power hidden within her. Christine awakened in front of the Temple of the Sun, and was then taken into the Temple by her husband, the sun god Helios. Chris left Chris a clock to wait for Adam's arrival.

Adam, completely unaware of these events, believed that a mutant organization had kidnapped his girlfriend. He flew at breakneck speed to Greece, but as soon as he entered Greek airspace, a strange situation forced him to land on the ground. There, he was told by a mysterious voice claiming to be Christine's mother that he needed to pass several tests designed by Christine's father to see her again.

Adam asked, "What is the first test?"

The mysterious voice spoke in a very relaxed tone, saying, "Go to the Temple of Athena in Athens, and then remove the sapphire from the eye of the Athena statue. That is the first test." Then it disappeared.

Upon hearing this, Adam immediately asked, "Hey, there's no statue of Athena in the Temple of Athena. Wasn't she destroyed a long time ago?"

Unfortunately, the mysterious voice did not respond at all, as if it had never appeared.

Adam sighed softly and said, "Well, let's see what happens first. Judging from what he said earlier, Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom, must exist. So perhaps she wouldn't let mortals destroy her idols. There must be something wrong here. But if there really are idols, how am I supposed to get to the sapphire? Oh well, never mind. Let's go take a look." With that, he flew up again, heading towards the city of Athens.

Soon, Adam arrived above Athens and hovered quietly, looking at the ruins of the Temple of Athena in the distance. Many tourists from all over the world were visiting the ruins, but Adam did not see any sculptures that could be statues of Athena.

Adam frowned. "What's going on? Could it be..." Adam's eyes lit up as he thought of a possibility. He flew over the Temple of Athena, activated his X-ray vision, and a smile appeared on his lips.

"As expected. Heh, an energy barrier. The entire Temple of Athena is enveloped in mysterious energy. And looking at the location of the barrier, humph, I didn't expect that although these Olympian gods have left this world, they have deceived us a lot. What we see as temple ruins are not real temples at all. They are traces left behind by them on purpose."

After discovering the secret of the Temple of Athena, Adam hovered silently in the air. The temple was hidden by an energy barrier and had remained undiscovered by humans or other organizations for so many years. This indicated that the Temple of Athena indeed contained a treasure, or that there must be a guardian within it. The mysterious voice that had just requested the eye of the Athena statue would inevitably clash with this guardian.

Moreover, and most importantly, if I were to actually defeat the guardian inside and obtain the sapphire from the statue of Athena, I might offend Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom.

However, "Hmph, when did I become so indecisive? Hmph, for Christine's sake, let's fight! I've never been afraid of anyone before. This is a rare opportunity to fight to my heart's content!" After saying this, he walked unnoticed to the entrance of the energy barrier, which perhaps was deliberately left by the god who wanted to test Adam, and entered the Temple of Athena.

Adam was stunned by the sight inside as soon as he entered. Anyone who hadn't seen the temple would never have imagined what the original Temple of Athena was like. It was made of ivory and gold. Right in front of the temple was a thirteen-meter-tall statue of Athena, holding a spear in one hand and a shield in the other. A giant serpent was on her spear, and an eagle perched on her shoulder.

With its perfect facial features and the ever-sparkling wisdom in its eyes, it's impossible to believe that this is just a statue.

Adam stared at the statue with a hint of awe, murmuring, "This is Athena?"

As soon as Adam finished speaking, a roar came from the side: "Insolence! Mortal, who gave you permission to call the name of the supreme god! Kneel down!" A tall figure clad in golden armor suddenly appeared in front of Adam.

After reading it, Adam sighed softly and said, "That's why I hate this kind of mysterious power system. There's no way to find out how it came about. Sigh."

The knight was furious when he saw that Adam did not kneel down. He shouted, "You disrespectful bastard, take this punch!" He then attacked Adam with incredible speed.

Adam smiled slightly after seeing this and said, "Hehe, I thought it was another mage or something, but it's a knight. Good thing you've come. I was just about to have a battle with a figure from mythology." With that, he moved his feet and threw a punch at the knight.

Because Adam was faster than the knight, he quickly struck the knight in the face, sending him flying and crashing into the temple wall.

Adam looked at the knight with a puzzled expression and said, "Huh, what's going on? They came with such a fierce aura, how come their strength is so weak?"

Just as Adam was pondering, the knight stood up again, but this time he did not attack recklessly. Instead, he stomped his right foot hard on the ground, and a horse neighed. A very strong brown horse covered in leather armor suddenly appeared beside the knight. The knight mounted the horse, picked up his broadsword, and attacked Adam again.

Without a second thought, Adam unleashed a heat ray at the enemy's attack, then quickly distanced himself from the knight for a second attack. But at that moment, Adam suddenly noticed that the knight, after being exposed to his heat ray, turned into gray mist and disappeared.

After reading it, Adam suddenly chuckled and said, "Heh, it seems I was being too cautious. It turns out not everyone in the mythological system is so powerful. Oh well, I'd better hurry up and finish the test; I don't want to become the first eunuch of this century." With that, he flew directly towards the statue of Athena.

Adam approached the statue of Athena and thought to himself, "This statue is really well made and very lifelike. When I flew there, its eyes seemed to be looking at me. It's very eerie." As he spoke, he went to the head of the Athena statue and prepared to remove the two sapphires embedded in its eyes.

Just then, the statue of Athena suddenly moved, and the spear in her right hand struck Adam, who had no time to react, causing the duck egg to crash into the temple wall with a thud.

Adam hovered in the air, looking at the statue that had come to life, and said, "Hey, I knew things weren't that simple. Damn, they're messing with me!" He then flew to the left to avoid the statue's fierce attack.

While dodging the attacks from the idol, Adam fired several heat rays at it. Just then, Adam suddenly sensed a sharp, piercing aura coming from behind him. A god grabbed the eagle that had somehow flown behind him and threw it at the idol before it could react.

The statue seemed to lack any intelligence. When it saw Adam throw the eagle at it, it pierced it with a spear, turning the eagle into a pile of rubble that fell to the ground. Adam smiled slightly upon seeing this and increased his speed to attack the statue of Athena repeatedly, quickly shattering it into pieces.

Adam looked at the statue, now a pile of rubble, shrugged, and said, "It seems Athena really should hate me." He then bent down and took the two sapphires into his hands.

Just then, the mysterious voice from before, Christine's mother's voice, appeared in Adam's ears again: "Not bad, I didn't expect you to do it so neatly, even smashing the statue of Athena. Heh, aren't you afraid of Athena's wrath?"

Adam shrugged and said, “If Athena questions me, I’ll tell her that you made me do it. Of course, if she wants to take her anger out on me, let her do it.”

Suer laughed, "Heh heh, you're really fearless, aren't you? Alright, you've passed this test. And don't worry, what you were fighting just now wasn't the real Athena statue, but just an illusion we set up. Now, the second test is to defeat the Cyclops. This is the real Cyclops, not an illusion. I hope you can defeat it. Good luck, little Adam!" With that, a map appeared out of thin air in front of Adam, and then Suer's voice disappeared again.

P.S.: That's it, meow!

...

Chapter 104 Test Three

Christine made up her mind to accept her identity, and the divine veins within her began to awaken. She was taken to the Temple of the Sun by her father, the sun god Helios, while Adam met Christine's mother, the sun goddess Sur, and accepted her test.

Sue's first test was to send Adam to the Temple of Athena to obtain the sapphire set in the eye of the statue of Athena. After a struggle, Adam successfully obtained two sapphires, and Sue's second test began.

“Defeat a Cyclops, and the place he exists is on this map!” After saying this, Sull’s voice disappeared, and a parchment map appeared in front of Adam.

Adam reached out and took the map, shrugged, and said, "Alright, I'm the junior, so let's continue." He then picked up the map and opened it.

This thing is more like a legendary treasure map than a map. It doesn't have anything to help Adam on it. It just has a very simple drawing and a red X on it. As for what the map shows, Adam has to guess and analyze it himself.

"Well, this is really giving me trouble. The map they gave me is full of these kinds of shareholders. Maybe I should consider selling this map as a treasure map to those guys who like adventure."

While complaining, Adam flew out of the Temple of Athena with the map in hand. He then pondered the mysteries on the parchment map in mid-air. Soon, Adam found several reference points on the map, a smile appeared on his lips, and he shot towards the locations on the map.

The area marked with a red cross on the map appears as a vast ocean on modern maps, but in reality, it's home to an island inhabited by Cyclopes. This island's location seems to align with the area of ​​the Devil's Sea that Adam had previously seen online. This confirms that some unfortunate humans who drifted to this island were apparently killed by these Cyclopes.

Adam didn't know why the gods would leave these dangerous creatures on Earth, but since he had encountered them this time, and the test he faced was to defeat a Cyclops, he could take the opportunity to eliminate this threat to humanity. Who knew when the barriers set up by the gods would disappear? If these Cyclops were allowed to enter human society, it would be a disaster for them.

Adam made up his mind and continued flying forward, using his X-ray vision to walk directly through the entrance. Then he smelled an unbearable stench.

Adam quickly held his breath, thinking, 'Damn it, these islands over there are basically latrines! How disgusting, how ugly!'

Just then, Adam saw many ships on the beach near the island, some wooden steamships from the Age of Exploration, others warships from World War II. All of this ignited a fierce killing intent in Adam's eyes. He couldn't kill humans, right? But these cyclops-like creatures couldn't really be considered human, could they?

Adam, a cold smile playing on his lips, flew toward the direction from which the shouts were coming from. Soon he saw more than a dozen cyclops, each two or three meters tall.

These cyclops seemed to have noticed Adam's arrival. One of them, upon seeing Adam, began to utter Haras from its gaping maw, shouting intermittently, "Flesh! Flesh!! Flesh!!!"
