The portable grandfathers that appear are all problematic.

Let the world do whatever it wants, damn it, it's messing with Zeus!

There's no saving him, just wait to die. Goodbye!

Xue Luding immediately drew his dimensional sword and confronted Zeus. Now that the Age of Gods had disappeared, he no longer had the protective shield against Zeus, and Zeus would not be killed by Xue Luding again.

That successful assassination of Zeus was achieved through a combination of deliberate planning and the help and sacrifice of countless heroes and gods, resulting in a fatal blow.

But this time, in this underground hut, he faced Zeus head-on...

Will it win?

Guaranteed to die!

Xue's Law only has the confidence to confront Zeus head-on after completing the ritual of the new century and ascending himself while summoning the seven beasts of human evil, since both ancient Greek and Roman mythology were ultimately replaced by God.

Therefore, he could only try to suppress Zeus by relying on the concept of restraint and using the seven evil beasts of mankind from the Bible.

But now, without any preparation, they are directly confronting Zeus...

Xue Law: "..."

Immediately, why!

He was prepared to flee at any time, but soon, after meeting Zeus, Xue Dinglu realized that something was wrong.

If it were the real Zeus, he would have taken action immediately, or even started testing Xue Lude to see if he still had that troublesome protection.

But Zeus has not made any move yet.

Xue's Law never doubted Zeus's wisdom. As long as Zeus was not in a period where the lesser head controlled the greater head, his wisdom was no less than that of Athena. Xue's Law once successfully tricked Zeus to death by making this god-king spend most of his time in a state where the lesser head controlled the greater head, thus reducing his intelligence.

But if it were a second meeting, Zeus would definitely not be controlled by the smaller head this time; Xue's Law is certain of that.

But now, Zeus did not attack Xue Lude, nor did he test Xue Lude. Instead, electric arcs flowed over him, and the thunderous light in his pupils silently watched Xue Lude.

Through those lightning-filled pupils, Xue Dinglu suddenly sensed something.

This Zeus... has no soul!

He breathed a sigh of relief and then began to study it carefully.

Perhaps it's because the ritual wasn't performed by a living person, but by a wooden figure, or perhaps Xue's theory of rituals is based on irrational summoning, and Zeus had no soul or consciousness.

He was like a puppet, showing no reaction whatsoever to Xue Luding, who should have been his mortal enemy.

"Thank goodness, thank goodness..." Xue Dinglu collapsed to the ground, nearly scared to death.

He asked, "Zeus, what do you think?"

It was just a casual remark, but to everyone's surprise, this fantasy Zeus actually responded, quietly saying, "Fry!"

Xue's Law: "!"

The good news is that it's not the real Zeus; the bad news is that it might be Zeus representing the power of procreation!

Xue Luding thought in horror, could it be that what he summoned was the remnant of the concept after he stabbed Zeus's second brother?

Chapter 328 The Coffin Lid That Crushed Zeus

"Our lord has sacrificed himself." In a magnificent and splendid temple, an old man said silently.

Everyone else felt a jolt, but their entire bodies began to tremble.

This is a magnificent temple, seemingly standing on the clouds. The entire temple is grand and magnificent, with tall stone pillars and pure white stones arranged on the temple, and all kinds of lifelike statues.

This group of people seemed to be the masters of the temple. They were looking at the withered saplings in the temple, which represented the death of the Ninth Apostle.

When they raised their heads, even bathed in sunlight and wearing divine robes, the entire chin of these "people" was covered with countless tentacles.

Like some ancient mollusk from the deep sea, even though they have evolved to resemble humans, from the nose down, they look more like a deep-sea mollusk with human skin than a human.

Even its mouthparts are hidden beneath those densely packed tentacles.

When they raised their heads and looked at the person in the head seat, their pupils once again revealed a fanatical expression.

"But the good news is that the fruit of the divine tree is almost ripe. After this game, the dead will be able to water the divine tree and produce ripe fruit, and I will consume this fruit and become a new apostle, replacing the original master's position," the leader said.

"Yes!" Inside the temple, all the soft-bodied people stared fervently at the old man on the main seat.

Then, they all pulled out wooden daggers from their bodies and stabbed themselves in them.

Blood stained the divine robes and dripped onto the ground, flowing through the pure white stones of the temple, seemingly forming a terrifying and eerie runic incantation.

Soon, the flowing blood completed the spell, and a red light burst forth in the temple.

Behind the old man, a massive mechanism seemed to come into operation, and the hourglass-like mechanism completely reversed at this moment.

"Let this game, called 'The Great Expedition,' be the last one," the old man murmured, as if speaking to the hourglass-like mechanism.

The hourglass, having absorbed all the blood, seemed to have gathered immense magical power capable of completely reversing the world's course.

……

Clearly, the Heroic Spirit Summoning Techniques in this world do not summon the souls of the dead, but rather summon a historical concept.

For example, if Liu Bei were summoned, the figure that would appear might not be the historical Liu Huangshu, nor the Liu Xuande from the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but rather an abstract figure wielding a shotgun.

This is the principle behind the descent of heroic spirits.

Therefore, the Zeus that appears is not the real Zeus, but rather the Zeus as defined by Xue's law.

Zeus lacked self-awareness, but at this moment, due to the stereotypes imposed by Xue's Law, all that remained of Zeus were his rigid instincts, namely...

"fry!"

The creator of Zeus seems to have been left with only this instinct, and even seems to have a mind full of nothing but breeding and stallion thoughts.

If Xue Dinglu were to leave, it's possible that within a few days, all the noble ladies and young women in the world would inexplicably become pregnant, and even the legendary seventy- or eighty-year-old queens might be heavily pregnant.

Even more terrifying is that Xue's Law fears that all kinds of animals, insects, or fish in this world will stick out their bellies.

Then, after a period of time, the entire world was completely transformed into the bloodline of Zeus... returning to the era when the various tribes of ancient Greece were either killed or boiled...

Xue Law: "..."

Why is it this thing?

He was practically a mask of pain, constantly controlling Zeus through the contract. He felt that if he relaxed his control even slightly, the two noble ladies in the count's mansion would become heavily pregnant today.

It's even possible that the Earl and his old butler will both get pregnant.

Xue was not joking. He discovered a pure fertility power in Zeus. He felt that after he had a go at a car exhaust pipe, the car would be twisted by the power of the god-king and give birth to offspring.

Xue Dinglu felt a chill run down his spine; this level of reproductive authority sent a shiver down his spine.

He felt as if he had unleashed a terrifying monster with his own hands.

It seems that a ghost, a ghost that has been completely devoid of anything but the right to reproduce, has been haunting the skies above Greece, but now, this ghost has been summoned by Schrödinger's Law.

Even when Xue Lude attempted to contact Zeus and reclaim him, in the next instant, his mind was overwhelmed by an endless power...

"Fry, fry, fry, fry! Fry!"

The power and desire to reproduce surged forth in an instant, and Xue's Law even had a real feeling that the sperm had replaced the brain, with the small head controlling the big head.

However, with an extremely strong will, he suppressed this distorted authority and no longer wanted to try to take back or remove Zeus's power.

Because he knew that if he did that, he might be completely controlled by the reproductive authority, and then become a tireless, mindless human breeding machine whose thoughts were completely controlled by the small head.

Is this... Zeus's curse?

Or is this the curse of the Ninth Apostle?

Xue Dinglu didn't know, but at this moment he was extremely vigilant, realizing that his casual attempt had released such a monster.

He no longer dared to continue researching the spells for summoning heroic spirits, at least not until he resolved his lustful urges.

As for the solution...

Xue Dinglu had no choice but to try to seal and retrieve Zeus's spirit. He dared not let Zeus's spirit wander in this world, nor did he dare to directly retrieve Zeus and allow himself to be parasitized by the reproductive authority.

So they had no choice but to try to seal him. Luckily, Xue's method actually had a way to successfully seal him. That was to create a special cross from the divine tree and bind Zeus's hands, feet, and lower body, thus completing the seal.

The entire night was spent cleaning up this mess. Xue Law initially tried to replicate Zeus's method of imprisoning his father, but failed. In the end, he only succeeded in sealing the seal by thinking of the martyrdom of a certain holy son.

Even after the seal was achieved, Xue Dinglu still frowned, as if the power of reproduction was trying to control him in every way.

He took a deep breath and gradually suppressed reproduction through the power of creation, eventually making reproduction no longer affect him.

After a long time, Xue Luding finally breathed a sigh of relief, having finally achieved a complete seal on Zeus.

He could actually sense that the current Zeus was very strong, perhaps not as strong as the Zeus during the prologue of the seven-day destruction he had witnessed in his previous life, but even stronger than the Zeus in his normal state.

That is, the strength of a 5th-tier cultivator! It might even be considered quite strong within the 5th tier.

However, this level 5 power cannot be used easily. Xue Luding hopes he will never have to use it in his life, as he does not want to experience the feeling of having his thinking ability occupied by the small head again.

However, Xue Luding doesn't mind releasing Zeus in a crisis. For example, if he were to arrive at the Zerg's home planet, he would definitely abandon Zeus and run away, then seal the spell for the rest of his life and never use it again, letting Zeus wander to another planet.

As for the great battle between Zeus and the insect swarm that followed, he did not participate, dared not watch, was not curious, and was afraid of getting a sty.

By the time everything was finished, it was already dawn. Most of the night had been wasted in a battle of wits with Zeus.

"Knock knock knock..." The door of the underground library was knocked on, and a clear voice of a noblewoman came from outside, "Your Excellency, the carriage is ready."

"Also, Father awaits your response." The noblewoman outside appeared very respectful, but the slight furrow between her brows betrayed her arrogance.

"Okay." Xue Luding, who had put his glasses back on, silently walked out of the underground library, completely ignoring the noblewoman's attitude.

The carriage stopped in front of the nobleman's mansion, and Xue Dinglu stepped into the carriage with a smile.

The count and his two daughters sat on one side of the carriage, and then said to Xue Dinglu, "What has your consideration been? A night has passed, and you should have realized that your magic power is insufficient, right?"

Xue Dinglu smiled, placing his hand lightly on his bangs, and looking at the three members of the Earl's family through his glasses with one eye, silently thinking, "Complete hypnosis!"

A wisp of magic entered the minds of the three, and they were instantly stunned, their minds momentarily dazed.

Hypnosis, time stop, and charm were abilities that Xue Law once developed using a modifier, but with the disappearance of the modifier, these abilities are no longer useful.

However, some basic techniques are still retained. They may not be very effective against people of the same level, but they can still be effective against people who are much weaker than oneself.

As for the three members of the Earl's family, they only felt a momentary daze, and then nothing seemed amiss.

In their memory, the familiar contract had already been established, so they happily bowed to Xue Dinglu and said, "Thank you for your support. May you accomplish your great deeds in the upcoming expedition."

The count's family was very clever. Even though they still treated the heroic spirit as a subordinate, at least on the surface they maintained a respectful and courteous demeanor.

Even if they disdain it from the bottom of their hearts, they are very good at putting on a show.

Unlike that little beggar, who openly displayed his disdain and demanding attitude.

"Then, Your Excellency, may I have the honor of hearing your real name?" the count continued.

"My real name? You can call me 'The Mad Viscount'." Xue Daolu lowered the bangs he had just brushed aside, his gaze sweeping over the count behind his glasses.

At that moment, the count's pupils constricted, and he almost stood up in excitement.

He shouldn't have trusted Xue's Law so easily, since Xue's Law was just a figurehead at the moment, used to conceal his identity as an alien.

But under the full influence of hypnosis, the old count seemed to believe it and became increasingly respectful.

As for whether the leather suit might be exposed later?

As for Xue's Law, he had countless ways to actually achieve the classic spell of the Mad Viscount, after all, he had already used a similar spell to summon a breeding Zeus.

The moves are the same, the stats are the same, and the abilities are the same, so why do you say he's not the Mad Viscount?

Just then, the steam carriage stopped at the palace gate, and the old steward said, "Sir, we have arrived at the palace."

Xue Dinglu stepped down from the carriage, accompanied by a count's daughter.

"Your Excellency, my name is Lana Laurent." The noblewoman, dressed in a white gauze dress, was as proud as a swan, but at least outwardly she showed respect for Xue Dinglu.

Xue Dinglu simply nodded; he didn't care about the girl at all, or rather, he came to this world to investigate unusual events.

But apart from this strange Great Expedition and the bizarre ritual that happens every hundred years, which is similar to a battle royale, the world seems to be quite normal.

The most abnormal one was the little beggar who had just arrived. Why would a little beggar suddenly act like he was the most important person in the world just because he summoned a heroic spirit?

He began to have some doubts. If that was the beggar's original personality, why was he able to survive so smoothly as a beggar?

That kind of personality should have died long ago in some unknown corner.

Even the daughter of this count was not as arrogant as that beggar.

Xue Lude couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it and could only attribute it to losing his mind because he successfully summoned the Heroic Spirit.
