Saint Seiya: From the Succession of the Underworld

soon.

The two stopped in front of a whirlpool.

Jiang Chen's figure vanished without a trace in an instant. Now, it's up to Persephone to handle everything.

It's just a game!

It's better to take your time and enjoy it slowly.

Persephone...

A slightly weak but magnetic male voice came from within the vortex. He slowly said, "You found me? I'm actually quite curious, why did you find me?"

Persephone was different from his gentle demeanor towards Jiang Chen.

At this moment.

Persephone's role as the king of gods is fully revealed: elegant and noble, yet filled with endless arrogance, his lofty and supreme demeanor is on full display.

Persephone said in a soft yet indifferent voice, "Prometheus, as the god of wisdom, can't you guess why I've come?"

"Human fire?"

Prometheus pondered for a moment, then said strangely, "That shouldn't be the case. The human fire is in my hands, and no one else should know about it except me."

Smart man!

Jiang Chen listened quietly to the conversation and had to admit it.

Prometheus was a wise man.

He knew that Persephone's arrival gave him hope of getting out.

So……

If you want to go out, you need to bring enough with you.

and!

The divine object of fire, which is like that of humankind, was clearly the first reward that Prometheus offered.

"The fire of humanity..."

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself, "The flames born from human civilization... if I could get my hands on them, I could modify them..."

"The collapse of human morality?"

"Sigh~~~"

Jiang Chen couldn't help but gasp. If his idea could succeed, it could bring enormous benefits.

but.

Jiang Chen pondered for a moment, then withdrew his thoughts. This was a good thing, and he could study it carefully.

Humanity's fire.

Such a wonderful thing cannot be created casually.

Jiang Chen was not joking.

The flame of humanity can only truly be born when humanity possesses unlimited progress and creates countless heroic and glorious human epics.

In other words.

In the ordinary world, it would be impossible for you to give birth to human fire.

Only by confronting the divine with human strength, under such difficult circumstances, can human civilization continue to develop and give birth to the flame of humanity.

Leaving aside other issues such as the collapse of human reason.

For Jiang Chen, obtaining the human fire meant he would then consume it with darkness.

That!

The Dark Cloth doesn't need to be tempered and matured over time; it will be formed directly.

Even said.

The Dark Cloth will be even more terrifying, and will be directly bound to the Dark Multiverse controlled by Jiang Chen.

As long as humanity's legacy continues in the Dark Multiverse, as long as humanity exists.

So!

Each Dark Cloth possesses the potential for endless evolution.

Of course.

Although Jiang Chen really wanted it, he didn't intend to ask.

"Prometheus."

"Truly worthy of being called the god of wisdom."

"It's undeniable."

"The price you paid was indeed staggering."

"but."

“Prometheus, releasing you is not enough; this is a new era.”

"In this new era, only Apollo and I are the players, setting up our strategy on this chessboard."

"And your birth, with your wisdom and your ability, will probably disrupt this game."

"So……"

What else can you offer?

Persephone maintained an aloof attitude throughout, as if he had not come here to make a deal with Prometheus.

It was as if Prometheus was begging him, and that's how he came to be here.

"..."

Prometheus did not answer immediately.

In what order?

That's not important. He wants to get out. Besides, facing the God King is completely pointless.

Want to overthrow the God-King with wisdom?

That's just like a joke.

How much did Metis and Prometheus actually do?

That was self-evident, but in the end, there was only one result: Zeus, with just a slight intervention, completely shattered all their efforts.

God!

The law of the jungle prevails; that's the essence of everything.

After a while.

Prometheus spoke again quietly: "The divine codex, I possess the divine codex of the Titan pantheon, and I can give it to you."

“Divine scripture…”

A look of surprise flashed across Persephone's eyes.

Divine scripture!

How should I put this...

simply put.

If we were to describe it in terms of a storybook, once you become the owner of the storybook "Snow White," you would be able to perfectly control it.

The Titan pantheon, which Prometheus possessed, had the same effect.

Mastering this divine scripture means truly mastering the entire Titan pantheon.

Of course.

Jiang Chen wasn't interested in mastering the Titan pantheon; what he needed was the divine scripture. For Jiang Chen, the amount of fuel needed to ignite the divine fire was far too much.

The sacred texts contain the most precious firewood, which is also the best fuel.

"not enough."

Persephone said quietly, "Prometheus, I know very well that even you cannot truly master the divine codex of the Titan pantheon. This is the divine codex of the Titan pantheon from a parallel universe, isn't it!"

Although he used a question, Persephone spoke with great seriousness and calmness.

Prometheus said, "Indeed, this is the divine scripture of a Titan pantheon from a parallel universe. In that case..."

“Prometheus, bring it all out. I know very well what you possess. This divine codex of the Titan pantheon is only a part of it; you possess much more.”

"otherwise."

"You don't think you're qualified to defy Zeus."

"The process doesn't matter; the result is that you've already failed."

"Now."

"This divine scripture can truly free you from the seal and make you a free person."

Persephone's voice was very calm and even very peaceful.

"it is good!"

Prometheus agreed without hesitation.

"The Ancient Codex, the Titan Codex, the Olympian Codex—these are all in my hands..."

"I once obtained a divine scripture from a Greek pantheon in a parallel universe."

"only."

"The ancient god in that parallel universe is merely a projection, extremely weak, and unable to influence this world. This divine scripture can bring some benefits, but not that much."

Prometheus did not hide anything; instead, he spoke his mind and told everything.

"can."

Persephone said quietly, "Besides that, you have nurtured human civilization, and all its systems must be handed over to me."

"it is good."

Prometheus knew that the other party's goal was all this, but it didn't matter anymore. As long as he could break free from the seal, everything else was irrelevant.

Persephone quietly raised his hand, merely pointing it into the air.

Wave~~~

It spread rapidly in all directions, like ripples on water.

In an instant.

The vortex had dissipated, and a man with long, jet-black hair, a refined appearance, but who looked extremely weak, emerged from it.

Persephone.

Prometheus gazed silently at the goddess before him.

Prometheus had certainly met Persephone, but he never imagined that she would become the queen of the gods.

Abel, Athena, Ares, Apollo.

These are the only four beings in the Fourth Generation capable of being four God-Kings.

Actually!

In the ancient era of gods, Uranus, as the first generation of gods and the king of gods, signified that only one king of gods could be born in that era.

of course.

Uranus was an ancient god, and the other ancient gods were also very special, so the era of the ancient gods was not counted in it.

In the Titan era, besides Cronus, Hyperion, the strongest man, was also qualified to become the king of the gods, as the second generation of gods.

In fact.

Hyperion also became the king of the gods, but he remained loyal to Cronus.
