Light Speed ​​War

Chapter 285: Gods Again

After arranging everything, Zhou Yuan boarded his flagship and led three thousand advanced warships on a hyperspace journey, quickly arriving in the solar system from the edge of the universe. The flagship and the three thousand warships remained concealed above Earth.

In the Asgardian realm of the Western Hemisphere, the only superhuman on Earth has just appeared, named Kalis. She is the ancient goddess of Western mythology. Kalis built the Golden Palace, the "Temple of Gods," high in the mountains. Although Kalis was the only superhuman at the beginning, her followers and worshippers became her disciples. Kalis taught her disciples superpowers that ordinary people could not possess. These followers and disciples with superpowers were revered as "gods" by the world. The Golden Palace, the "Temple of Gods," was admired by the world, and the "gods" were worshipped. The "gods" governed this new world, teaching people knowledge and guiding their various forms of production and life.

The most powerful god-king on Earth, Kalis, is a young and beautiful woman whose appearance and figure closely resemble Lefia's. Could it be that the human consciousness of this cosmic creation originated from the fifth-dimensional human race that projected Lefia's consciousness—the guardians of the Horizon Planet and the human world of Earth?

Zhou Yuan, aboard the stealth bee-shaped spaceship, arrived at the Asgard realm of New Earth, reaching the vicinity of the Asgard Golden Palace, the "Palace of the Gods," high in the clouds. Disguised, Zhou Yuan revealed himself in a secluded grove at the foot of the mountain when his mental link suddenly resonated. A sweet yet playful female voice echoed in his mind, "Guest from afar, the 'Palace of the Gods' welcomes you."

Zhou Yuan was secretly startled and immediately concealed his true inner turmoil. It seemed that the woman noticed this startle as well. "Don't be afraid, the 'gods' will protect you."

At the very moment Zhou Yuan sensed this telepathy, he noticed two people floating down from the mountaintop. He wasn't mistaken; a man and a woman were descending from the mountain, hovering and riding the wind. Zhou Yuan couldn't help but think of the "immortals" from Eastern mythology in his own world.

Zhou Yuan stared in astonishment as the handsome man and beautiful woman descended before him. Zhou Yuan looked unwell and somewhat listless, his clothes were tattered, and he carried a worn-out cloth bag on his back.

The handsome man wore a hat with wings on his head and flat shoes with wings on his feet. He held a staff with a coiled snake in his hand. The beautiful woman was dressed in bright colors, with golden curly hair and a string of sparkling gems around her neck.

The beautiful woman smiled as she looked at Zhou Yuan, while the handsome man extended his hand. Zhou Yuan also extended his hand, and the handsome man shook Zhou Yuan's hand. "Hello, I am Moheli, and this is Osta."

"Hello," Austa greeted Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan recognized Austa's voice; it was the same voice he had sensed telepathically earlier. It must have been Austa communicating with him telepathically just now.

“Hello, Mehrli, hello, Osta. I am Thor.” Zhou Yuan thought of the name of the Roman sun god. (Thor, the Roman sun god, is the Roman name of Helios, the Greek sun god).

"Thor, did you come to this 'Pantheon' to pray for blessings as well?" Mehrli asked Zhou Yuan.

“Yes, but I also want to pay homage to the God King.” Zhou Yuan said with a devout expression.

Mohli glanced at Zhou Yuan, a smile appearing in his eyes. "Alright, let's talk about it when we get up the mountain."

Zhou Yuan looked up at the towering mountain peak and couldn't help but feel fear.

Osta smiled. "Thor, don't be afraid, we'll take you up the mountain." After saying that, Osta glanced at Mohli, who nodded.

Suddenly, Moheli and Osta grabbed Zhou Yuan's arms at the same time. Zhou Yuan let out a cry and felt his feet leave the ground, with the wind whistling in his ears.

Zhou Yuan opened his eyes. The earth was already beneath his feet, and the forest had become a tiny dot.

Seeing Zhou Yuan's surprised look, Osta chuckled, "Thor, don't be afraid."

"Thank you," Zhou Yuan said loudly, the wind still whistling in his ears.

Zhou Yuan watched as the palace-like building above grew larger and larger. Soon, Mohli and Osta carried Zhou Yuan to a plaza. In this plaza, many people were practicing their skills: one person was breathing fire, another was teleporting rapidly, and yet another was wielding several flying swords.

Mehri and Osta led Zhou Yuan along the wide road in the square, where the "Pantheon" shone brilliantly in the sunlight.

About ten minutes later, the three arrived at the massive golden gate of the grand palace. Mohli, on the left, knocked heavily three times on the door knocker. The massive golden gate made a heavy rumbling sound and slowly opened. Zhou Yuan felt his eyes light up.

The majestic palace dome was supported by towering golden columns, and its golden walls were inlaid with dazzling gemstones. On a golden chair to the north sat a young and beautiful woman with long, wavy golden hair, wearing a golden "Starlight Crown" (a crown), and golden bracelets on her wrists. A golden starlight longsword rested on her right, while a golden starlight shield sat on her left. Zhou Yuan thought to himself, "This Kalis really does look a lot like Lefia. But Kalis's attire and weapon seem familiar... I think I've seen them somewhere before. I think of the movie 'Wonder Woman'."

Beneath Carlisle sat more than a dozen people on each of the golden stools on either side; these people were probably also "gods".

As Mohli and Osta led Zhou Yuan into the "Temple of the Gods," Kalis's gaze seemed to pierce through Zhou Yuan's soul, and more than twenty "gods" also stared at him. Zhou Yuan regained his composure, feigning panic. Mohli and Osta led Zhou Yuan to Kalis, about twenty meters away.

"Mahli, Osta, who is this man?" Carlis asked, her authoritative voice echoing throughout the hall.

"The God-King, his name is Thor, and he comes from the distant Roman county."

"God... God King, I am Thor, I have come to pray for and worship you." After saying this, Zhou Yuan knelt down with a thud, then bowed his head and kowtowed to the ground. To show his respect, Zhou Yuan did not get up.

"Sol, get up." Zhou Yuan felt a strong force supporting his arm. He tried to lower himself further, but the force was getting stronger and stronger.

"Thank you, God-King." Zhou Yuan had no choice but to stand up and look at Kalis. Kalis's face was beaming with a smile, and Zhou Yuan's heart stirred, so he smiled back. Kalis seemed surprised for a moment when she saw Zhou Yuan smile, then regained her cold and dignified demeanor.

"God-King, Rome County has recently been attacked by a large number of ferocious beasts and birds. The beasts have eaten many people. We hope that the God-King can help us eliminate the beasts and birds."

"Thor, we know about this. Marcus, you will lead the giant legion and the elven legion to exterminate the beasts and birds of Rome."

“Yes, God-King.” A tall and imposing man in golden armor stood up and responded from the first seat to the left of Kalis’s seat. He bowed to Kalis, glanced at Zhou Yuan, and then strode out of the “Palace of Gods”. His footsteps still echoed outside the door.

"Morley, take Thor to wash up and change his clothes before you come back."

"Yes."

Zhou Yuan bowed to Kalis, then turned and followed Mohli. As Mohli stepped out of the palace gate, he grabbed Zhou Yuan and lifted him into the air, flying directly towards a building next to the palace. Zhou Yuan was already used to being unexpectedly pulled away by a "god".

This building, shorter than the "Temple of the Gods," was also quite luxurious. Zhou Yuan sensed that these "gods" liked to use gold to craft various things, such as chairs, tables, and weapons. Mohli led Zhou Yuan into a stream with a constantly circulating, babbling brook. Mohli placed some flowers and plants in the water, put a set of brand-new clothes and shoes on a golden table at the stream's entrance, then closed the door and left, waiting outside.

Zhou Yuan went into the water, feeling its refreshing coolness. Knowing that Moheli was waiting outside, he quickly washed up, dressed, and put on his shoes before heading out. Halfway there, Zhou Yuan suddenly remembered something. He opened his ring, and with a thought, a spherical hologram appeared. The hologram showed Marcus, giants, and elves riding many large, silver-white eagles towards Rome County. In Rome County, colossal beasts roamed the land, and birds circled overhead. Zhou Yuan put away the hologram on his ring and hurried out the door.

Mohli looked at the tall, handsome, and energetic Zhou Yuan for a few minutes, then nodded.

"Sol, let's go."

"Yes, Master."

Moheli then dragged Zhou Yuan to the palace entrance and led him inside. More than twenty great gods couldn't help but glance at Zhou Yuan, and even the God King Kalis's eyes flashed strangely.

"Sol, M'dal said that a kind of 'divine power' appeared in the Parthenon Palace just now. M'dal, are you sure?"

“Yes, God-King, I’m sure.” A man with a mouthful of gold teeth stood up, bowed to Kalis in reply, and glanced at Zhou Yuan at the same time.

Zhou Yuan was still startled, wondering if Mudal had sensed his mental energy field when he used his mind to open the ring and call Nana in the waterside room. Zhou Yuan had experienced "divine power" this time, but he blamed himself for being too careless and not disguising his mental energy.

“Thor.” Kalis stared at Zhou Yuan, her eyes gleaming with an unusual light. Zhou Yuan’s heart seemed to be gripped by a powerful force, and something seemed to be forcibly shoved into his mind. Zhou Yuan had no choice but to release a part of his consciousness.

"Thor, so you also have 'divine power'!" Kalis roared, startling all the gods, who all went on high alert.

"God King, great gods, to be honest, I do possess some 'divine power,' and it was with this 'divine power' that I escaped from the pursuit of giant beasts and dragons."

Kalis nodded, and the gods relaxed their guard.

"Thor, you can control objects, right?"

"Yes, God King."

"Then show us your 'divine power'."

"God King, my 'divine power' sometimes works and sometimes doesn't."

"It's alright. Now focus your attention on my starlight shield and move it."

"Yes." Zhou Yuan steadied himself, inhaling and exhaling, his eyes fixed on the golden starlight shield to Kalis's left. Then, he reached out with his right hand, and with a "whoosh," the shield shot towards him. Zhou Yuan stepped back, regained his footing, and forcefully grabbed Kalis's shield. Even so, Zhou Yuan bent over, and the shield in his right hand seemed about to fall. He took another breath, sharply lifted the shield, and held it firmly.

The gods all stood up, and Kalis, holding onto her chair, tried to rise but remained seated, an incredulous look on her face. Kalis's golden starlight shield was incredibly heavy; she hadn't expected the seemingly frail Zhou Yuan to possess such strength. Most astonishingly, Zhou Yuan could control the shield's movement with his will.

Seemingly to deliberately display his "divine power," Zhou Yuan bowed to Kalis and then slowly extended the Starlight Shield forward with his right hand. The shield, as if possessing a spirit, detached from Zhou Yuan's right hand and floated slowly towards Kalis. When it reached Kalis's feet, it descended in a very slow arc and flipped in mid-air before resting against the chair to Kalis's left.

Zhou Yuan's "divine power" surprised many powerful figures. Although Kalis was somewhat astonished, she simply smiled and nodded in approval at Zhou Yuan.

Zhou Yuan looked at Carlisle and smiled slightly. Carlisle felt a jolt in her heart, as if Zhou Yuan's smile was somewhat familiar.
