Instead of exploding, the Gates of Hell seemed to burst open like a balloon with a hole punctured.
Inside the gate, the endless aura of death, the billions of wandering vengeful spirits, the chains of laws that constitute the entire underworld... everything was being devoured, pulled, and absorbed madly and irrationally by that tiny dark singularity!
"what--!"
Hades let out an even more piercing scream than before.
His connection with the underworld is being forcibly severed by an irresistible force!
He could clearly feel that the stronghold he had built up over countless centuries, the foundation of his power, was being eaten away, piece by piece, by that man, like a dessert!
Black divine blood flowed from his seven orifices.
His once solid divine essence dimmed and became cracked at a visible speed.
The Kingdom of God has changed hands!
This is ten thousand times more cruel than killing a god!
All the god-kings who witnessed this scene felt a chill emanating from the depths of their souls.
This man not only killed gods.
He even eats gods!
Just as Hades' divine power dissipated, his body swayed, and he was about to be completely wiped out by the aftershocks of Zhou Ye's power that devoured the divine kingdom.
Unexpected changes lead to new beginnings.
A shadow deeper than the night and purer than nothingness rose silently from Hades' shadow.
The shadow was slender and elegant.
Before anyone could react, it transformed into a pale hand made of pure shadow.
puff.
That hand, with unparalleled precision, pierced Hades' heart from behind.
The movements were gentle, yet carried a resolute determination to end everything.
Time stood still at that moment.
Hades looked down, staring in disbelief at the hand that had pierced through his chest.
His last vestiges of life and consciousness were rapidly fading away.
He couldn't even see who had killed him.
The shadow slowly emerged from behind Hades, transforming into a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in a magnificent black palace gown, exuding elegance and grace.
She withdrew her hand.
What was brought forth was neither a heart nor divinity.
Instead, it was an irregular dark core, entirely black, constantly radiating an aura of endless taboo and sealing.
Hades' last bit of life force was completely extinguished as the core was removed from his body.
His body turned into specks of black dust and dissipated into the air.
Thus, the King of the Underworld fell.
They didn't die at the hands of the enemy.
790 died from being betrayed by his own people.
"aunt!"
A terrified scream came from the throne of Olympus.
Zeus stood there, stiff, staring at the woman who had suddenly appeared and casually killed his brother, his face filled with fear and incomprehensible astonishment.
This was completely outside his plans.
This was completely beyond anyone's control!
The visitor was one of the oldest and most mysterious primordial gods in Greek mythology.
Nyx, the goddess of the night!
From the very beginning, she was hiding in Hades' shadow!
Nyx completely ignored the exclamation of her nominal nephew, Zeus.
She also ignored the mixed emotions of shock, fear, and doubt emanating from all the gods present.
She simply lowered her head, examining the dark core she had just taken out in her hand with great interest.
Then, she looked up.
She turned around and looked at another goddess in the center of the venue.
Helena.
A meaningful, slightly provocative smile appeared on Nyx's face.
She spoke in a frequency that only the two of them could understand, uttering a sentence that caused their entire worldview to crumble.
"The real show is just beginning."
Chapter 309 Zeus's defenses crumbled after being betrayed by his own old man.
Nyx's line, "The show is just beginning," acted like an invisible stirring stick, turning the already chaotic situation into a boiling pot of mushy porridge.
The entire Olympus Phantom Arena has completely spiraled out of control.
If the previous conflict was merely a standoff between pantheons, now it is the prelude to a massive melee that affects all factions and unearths ancient secrets.
The first to break through the defenses was Zeus.
The nominal king of gods, the ruler of Mount Olympus, had an even more unpleasant expression on his face than when Hades had self-destructed.
It's the kind of extreme anger and humiliation that comes from being made a fool of, being kept in the dark from beginning to end, and finally discovering that your home has been robbed.
Crack!
A raging thunderbolt, more violent than ever before, gathered in his hand.
This time, he did not condense it into a spear.
Instead, it transformed into a devastating thundercloud that covered the entire venue!
"Nyx!"
Zeus's roar shook the entire illusory space violently.
"What do you take Olympus for?"
"Your backyard?"
"First, that idiot Hades colluded with the Chaos Gang, and now it's you who's stirring up trouble!"
"You old fogies, have you never taken me, the God-King, seriously?!"
He completely exploded.
He doesn't care about any biblical god or any god-killer; all he wants now is to clean house!
Poseidon, standing beside him, had an equally somber face.
He slammed his trident heavily into the ground, unleashing a devastating surge of power that locked onto Nyx.
"aunt."
Poseidon's voice was deep, yet carried undisguised hostility.
"Hades did something wrong, and we admit it."
"But what about killing him in front of all the pantheons and taking his last possessions?"
"This is a slap in the face to the entire Mount Olympus!"
The two brothers went crazy.
They were seething with anger.
Those old fogies in my own family are all unwilling to relinquish power, and they're always making underhanded moves behind my back.
Hades, that good-for-nothing who only made things worse, not only messed things up but also dragged the entire Greek pantheon down with him.
Just when the situation was almost under control, Nyx, that older and more cunning guy, jumped out and reaped the benefits!
What the hell is this?!
What else is there that they don't know?
Faced with the two god-kings' nearly out-of-control rage, Nyx simply elegantly tossed her long, black hair.
She didn't even look directly at Zeus and Poseidon.
Her deep eyes, which seemed to contain the entire night sky, remained fixed on Helena.
"Zeus, my good nephew."
Nyx finally spoke, his voice carrying an ancient, languid charm.
"Don't get things wrong."
"I'm not asking for your opinion."
"I'm just letting you know."
She paused, a mocking smile curving her lips.
"As for you, do you even deserve to be in my sights...?"
Don't you have any self-awareness?
To destroy their spirit!
These are blatant words of attack!
These words hurt Zeus more than any attack.
It directly denies Zeus's legitimacy and authority as the king of the gods!
