I impersonated God in America

At this moment, the scene from Chloe's dream kept flashing through her mind.

"But could it be that I'm thinking about it during the day and having these thoughts at night?"

After all, extraordinary events had been happening frequently during this period, causing her to constantly think about related matters even during the day.

Suddenly she felt something in her chest. Looking down, she saw a laurel branch.

As she watched the sunlight shine on the temple in the distance, she seemed to understand who the being in her dream was.

"No way?!"

Temple of Delphi

An older priest stood at the door, watching several well-dressed guests emerge from a black sedan.

She had dealt with these Ministry of National Defense and Ministry of the Interior personnel quite a bit.

Ever since the sign of a sacred fire appeared in the Hestia Temple, these officials have been acting like madmen, constantly contacting temples in various places.

She had already told them that they knew nothing about the extraordinary.

But for some reason, the other party always seemed to think, "I understand, I understand," and showed absolutely no intention of giving up.

"Your Excellency, Delphi is the most important place of oracle in Greece. The government has come with an extremely friendly attitude and hopes to cooperate with you."

"Sorry, we really don't know anything about the supernatural."

Then she saw the other person give her that "I understand" look again.

You don't understand anything at all!

Meanwhile, the officials were completely unconcerned about the other party's refusal.

Although they did not know the reasons behind the suffering of these temple inheritors, they did not give up on them.

But one thing is certain: there are definitely clues related to gods!

When they found the priestess of the Hestia temple, didn't she also say she didn't know?

The results of it?

The whole world witnessed the sacred flame on Crete and that undeniable miracle!

Delphi is arguably one of the most famous religious sites in ancient Greece.

The other party knows nothing?

How can it be? !

"But."

The official opened his mouth, just as he was about to say something, when a calm voice suddenly came from afar.

"Let them in."

The priest turned around in disbelief and saw Chloe, dressed in the priest's white robes, slowly walking towards him.

She quickly walked over and whispered something.

"They know their own situation best. Giving them such vague answers and letting them fill in the blanks themselves is the most appropriate thing to do. If you were to..."

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"You'll regret this, Chloe."

"I am Pythia."

--------

Offerings had already been laid out on the stone platform of the temple.

Chloe's hair was still damp; she had just finished bathing in the sacred spring of Castalia.

The water in this sacred spring flows from the rock wall above the sanctuary, making it the only purification site in Greece designated by UNESCO as a natural spring.

According to ancient traditions in Delphi, purification must begin there before any ritual can be performed.

The officials and priests stood still, all intently watching the girl before them.

At this point, all we can say is that people's joys and sorrows are not shared.

One was excited, the other was worried.

The Delphi ceremony did not require that no one be present. In ancient Greece, when priests received prophecies, they would often "gesture wildly and talk nonsense," requiring surrounding priests and others to record the details, which would then be analyzed later to reveal the "divine secrets."

As for the outcome?

What if the prophecy was wrong?

That only shows that their analysis was flawed, not that the divine prophecy was wrong.

If they misinterpreted the prophecy, it only means they're incompetent and need more practice!

The other party then personally stabbed the bound black goat in the throat with a knife.

He then took out a bay leaf, put it in his mouth, and began to tilt his head back in prayer.

Even with the elaborate ceremony in place, the priest standing to the side was still somewhat hesitant.

He and Chloe had known each other for many years, and Chloe's serious expression didn't seem fake.

[Has Chloe been lying to us all along?]

Could there really be a tradition passed down through generations?

Or is this a way to completely dissuade the authorities? But isn't that a bit too drastic?

After all, they still need to make a living in Greece, and it's not good to have too much of a falling out with the government.

And if they fail outright, wouldn't they be disgracing the temple?

If the gods really do descend in the future, how will they explain themselves?

The official was completely oblivious to the priest's worried gaze, his heart pounding faster and faster with each of Chloe's movements.

If he weren't forbidden from doing so, he would have loved to record the whole thing.

[You're so dense, memorize this already!]

Chloe slowly raised her hand, stretching it into the air, and her breathing began to become inexplicably rapid.

And then... fell asleep?!

"What kind of ceremony is this?"

Frankly, even the officials are starting to have doubts, since the ceremony is nearing its end and there has been no sign of any miracle.

Then, the next second, they saw Chloe's half hand disappear into the void.

"Varied……"

An official's pupils constricted, unable to believe what he was seeing. He lost control and wanted to express his shock by swearing.

His assistant immediately covered his mouth.

Snapped!

"Shh!"

"Waaah."

They held their breath as they saw that only half of Chloe's hand remained in reality, seemingly swirling in the air.

Then, they saw a silver bow slowly emerge from the void.

Boom!

The ceremony has ended.

But inside the temple, there was complete silence.

The officials stood there, staring at the silver longbow, seemingly speechless.

They exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

After all, there aren't many sacred objects associated with the chief god Apollo.

Bow and arrow, harp, and laurel tree.

[Bow and arrow... wouldn't that mean...]

[Notify your superiors immediately!]

Then, they seemed to have thought of something.

They all turned their gazes to the priest beside them, whose face showed an expression that said, "Believe it or not."

【Still saying you don't?!】

【fraud!!!】

French Ministry of Defense

Everyone watched the live battle situation of Ex Lyban, and the screen showed a scene of utter chaos.

Many areas of the former hot spring town have been reduced to ruins, and countless bipedal dragons still hover in the sky, each swooping down and taking away a group of firing points.

"Damn it, this is already a war of attrition!"

Charles sat in the main seat, his face looking rather grim.

"These guys have such a clear air superiority!"

"And there was that guy's saliva, did you guys notice?"

During this time, they also discovered that the saliva from these bipedal wyverns seemed to contain some kind of poison. If a soldier got saliva on his mouth, he would become weak and lose his fighting ability within a minute.

This put enormous pressure on their medical logistics.

"Disgusting, absolutely disgusting!"

"I really don't know what we've gotten ourselves into. How come these guys are sticking to our shoes like glue?"

"Speaking of medical matters," the assistant suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Should we bring over the gem we retrieved from the cave earlier?"

"That's right!" The analyst next to him also realized, after all, their investigation had found that the gem had the ability to eliminate the pain of those who came into contact with it.

Moreover, after finding the gemstone, they conducted on-site research at a top-notch, impregnable laboratory nearby, which was not far from the front lines.

"That's definitely a good method. If it really works, it can greatly relieve our stress!"

Before he could finish speaking, the liaison officer suddenly stood up, his face ashen.

"Sir! The laboratory where the gem is located is under attack by a large number of wyverns!"

"what?!"

An uproar erupted in the meeting room, and then everyone turned to the screen, where the location of the laboratory was in complete disarray.

Countless flames, thick smoke, and broken walls and ruins—the laboratory had been completely destroyed.

Dozens of bipedal dragons were flapping their wings and flying away into the distance, the leader carrying the gem in its mouth.

The meeting room was completely silent.

After what seemed like an eternity, someone finally spoke up quietly.

"Uh, could it be that the attack on Ex-Leban by these wyverns, causing such a commotion, was just a diversionary tactic, with their real aim being this gem?!"

"Now I understand. That first patrol was just to find the location of the gem!"

"Wait, doesn't that mean there's some intelligent being directing these wyverns?"

Damn it!

Upon hearing this, everyone was startled, and in an instant, they all understood the idea of ​​the two-legged wyvern.

"I care about something else more than those things."

The assistant suddenly spoke, his expression subtle.

"If people back home knew that the origin of this disaster was because we stole the jewels from the wyvern..."

"stop!!!"
