"Escape?" Hearing the words Hypnos said, Adros couldn't help but be shocked. The majestic servant of the Lord of the Underworld was actually going to flee.
"If you had come a day or two late, maybe Taratona and I would have to go out to take refuge." Hypnos continued to say leisurely.
"What happened?" Adros was shocked. Although he had not seen the strength of these two brothers, it was rumored that they were very powerful.
"I don't know either. It's just that Lord Pluto sent a message, telling us not to stay in Hades during this period until he comes back, and to find a safe place to take shelter. It is said that a powerful enemy will come to attack. Hades." When Hypnos said that there was an enemy coming to attack, he was not nervous at all and spoke with a smile.
Adros didn't ask any more questions. After all, it was a matter in Hades. As an outsider, there was no need for him to interfere.
"I wonder if Aunt Styx is in the underworld?" Seeing that Taratona did not come out so quickly, Adros asked Hypnos for news about Styx.
"If I remember correctly, the Goddess of Oath has not appeared in Hades for nearly ten years. I once heard Hades and Lord Hades chatting. She seems to have been looking for someone above the ocean, and I don't know who she is looking for. Even the Queen of Hades often visits hell, and it seems to be for the same reason." Hypnos hesitated, Persephone never asked Hades and the people of Hades to do business, and he occasionally heard about these situations.
Adros was startled when he heard this, and he probably understood the reason why Styx had not appeared in Hades for ten years. He left a note and ran away, which seemed to make these goddesses very worried. It's just that the situation at that time was very important, and it was difficult to tell them clearly about my origins. When things are done here, I must visit these goddesses respectively and express my feelings.
The two young gods were just outside Hades, talking about insignificant matters. Adros was extremely interested in the work of the underworld, so he kept asking Hypnos about the similarities and differences with the eastern underworld in his previous life.
If the soul after death is not trapped in the human world, it will be affected by inexplicable power and come to Erebos, the place of darkness and eternal silence. After coming out of Erebus, he passed through the gate of Hades, crossed the rushing river of pain, and came to the field of truth. Human souls will have their destination determined by the gods in this countryside.
Their destinations are roughly divided into three places: "Aspedros" where ordinary souls live, "Elysium" where heroes live, and "Tartarus" where they receive punishment.
There are the most people in Aspedros, and they are where all the ordinary souls live. But to get to Aspedros, they must pass through several other rivers in the underworld, the River of Hatred Acheron, the River of Regret Qiuriplegton and the River of Forgotten God Lot. Wash away your sins in the river, and then you can enter and live in Aspedros.
As for Elysium, it is a place of happiness, also called the Paradise of Elysees. It is the destination of heroes and good people after death. In this place, they can not only obtain eternal happiness, but if they are lucky enough, they can also be chosen by the gods as their attendants.
The last Tartarus is the earliest underworld, the incarnation of the original god. It is both hell and abyss. People who have committed serious sins are directly punished by Hades into this place, and most of the defeated gods are also thrown into it by the God King. It is the only one among the three places that is not under the control of Pluto. Zeus was worried that the gods in it would escape, so he specially sent three hundred-armed giants to guard it.
After Hypnos' introduction, Adros also roughly understood the specific matters of the underworld in this world. Compared with the place in the previous life, the management method here can be said to be extensive. The most essential reason may be that there is only the underworld here, but there is no reincarnation.
Only when reincarnation occurs and life and death can rotate, will the gods truly value the underworld and not regard it as a place to guard souls and prisoners, and management can be refined.
Just as Adros was thinking wildly, Taratona, the god of death in the twin stars, came out and brought them disappointing news. There was no whereabouts of Della in the underworld controlled by Hades.
Ian, who had been silent since entering Hades, now had bitterness on his delicate face. She could only look at Adros with her beautiful eyes, hoping that Adros could do something.
Adros signaled Ian to be calm and asked Taratona about the possible destination of Della's soul.
Taratona frowned and said: "If she really dies and her soul cannot be found in Lord Pluto's territory, there are only three possibilities. One is that she did not enter the underworld, or is in the human world, or is still in the land of eternal silence. Wandering; secondly, in the kingdom of our mother, the great Lord of the Night; thirdly, and the most difficult one, she has entered the abyss of Tartarus."
"Since Adros, you are sure that she has crossed the River of Pain, let's go to my mother's place to look for it first. If it is not there, there is nothing we two brothers can do." The Tartarus Abyss is not a god. Wherever he dares to break in, his master Tartarus, although not necessarily the most powerful among all the original gods, must be the most terrifying existence.
Adros thanked him profusely. These two brothers were willing to help, which really saved him a lot of effort.
"You're welcome, we are also on the way, and we are just going to take refuge with my mother." Hypnos knew very well that this young god could be regarded as the benefactor of Hades and Queen, so he was naturally willing to help with all his strength.
Nyx, the Lord of Night, is the original night. After she was born from chaos, she lived in the Land of Eternity with her brother and husband, Erebus, the original Lord of Darkness. Although the two are the entities of night and darkness, after their union, they gave birth to Aether, the god of space brilliance, and Hemola, the goddess of day, these two gods who symbolized light and day.
But just before the first god-king Uranus took control of the sky, the five original gods had a conflict and fought, almost destroying the world. After this war, Eros, the lord of lust, disappeared, Tartarus, the lord of hell, remained hidden, Nyx, the lord of the night, and Erebus, the lord of darkness, parted ways, so Uranus ascended to the throne of God King. throne.
Nix, who left the Land of Eternal Silence, came to the underworld, which was also outside the earth, and opened up her kingdom of heaven, the land of extreme night. In her divine kingdom, she gave birth to dozens of gods, but unlike her eldest sister Gaia, all of her children were born to her alone and were not combined with any male gods.
Stepping into the Land of Extreme Night, which is also a dark place, Adros clearly felt the difference between it and the Land of Eternal Silence in Erebus. The Land of Eternal Silence gave people black despair, while the Land of Extreme Night In it, there is hope.
Decorated with countless stars, it is even more beautiful and desirable than the night sky on the earth. Walking under the starry sky, Ian felt that his long-standing depression was relieved.
Along the way, Adros discovered that the relationship between the Gemini brothers and their siblings was extremely poor. Not only did they not say hello to each other, but they also treated each other coldly, which made him very strange.
Finally, he couldn't help but asked the doubts in his heart.
"Hypnos, do you have a bad relationship with your siblings?"
He did not ask Taratona, who had a cold face, but Hypnos, who was gentle and talkative. Although the two looked the same, Adros could only laugh at their temper. Along the way, Taratona didn't say a few words to him, but Hypnos kept introducing the situation in the Land of Extreme Night.
"You have seen me and Taratona before. My brothers and sisters have liked to bully us two monsters since we were young. If we hadn't met Lord Hades by chance later, my mother agreed to Lord Hades to take us away. I wonder how long I will be bullied by them?" Hypnos smiled gently, not shying away from talking about his past appearance and directly calling himself a monster.
Adros nodded. He had also heard about these children from Nix, the Lord of the Night. It seemed that there were not many good ones.
"Later, after our two bodies were separated, Taratona came to my mother several times and avenged all the previous vengeance, which gave my mother a terrible headache." Hypnos then said with a smile: "If it hadn't been this time The situation is special, and my mother probably won’t allow Taratona to return to the land of the polar night.”
When Taratona heard Hypnos' teasing, he snorted and said nothing.
In the Star Palace in the Land of Extreme Night, Adros finally met the original god, and it was also the second original god he had seen. The first was Gaia, the Earth Mother, whom he had seen at his birth.
Unlike Gaia, the Earth Mother, who looks gentle, mature, beautiful, and dignified, the first feeling that the Lord of the Night, Nyx, gave Adros was that he was a fellow countryman, more like Styx, the goddess of oaths.
Indeed, Nicks, who was wearing a black star flower gauze, had an appearance that was very different from the gods of this world. His black hair flowed down like a waterfall, and his black eyes always showed a gentle look, which made Adros feel familiar. And the feeling of nostalgia.
This goddess is extremely beautiful and has a graceful figure. Looking at her beautiful face and gentle smile, one can't help but wonder why the children born by such a goddess are all evil gods. What a mockery. The god of evil, the god of deceit, the god of adultery, the goddess of discord, etc., there are almost no good products.
"Adross, son of Leto, has met the goddess Nyx." Although there were many thoughts in his mind, he could not lose his composure.
Nix looked at him with a smile on his face, and the first words he said surprised him: "It's exactly what Asteria said, you inherited Leto's appearance and have the same black hair as me. Black eyes."
"The goddess has seen my aunt Asteria?" Adros asked quickly. The news of the sudden appearance of his relatives gave him a feeling of unexpected joy.
