To be king [Greek mythology]

Who the hell is the monster.

Not even the king of Crete would know.

At that time, as long as the discussion is made, the three people who came back will be real heroes of Crete.

The chief priest rested his chin, looked at the water curtain that collapsed as the blood in the copper basin was exhausted, snorted lightly, yawned, and cleaned up the suggested prayer altar that he built casually, tidied up and threw away the things that cast spells Get out and climb into bed.

There were too many wounded, and as the chief priest, he didn't rest all night. As soon as he fell asleep, Minos dragged him out of bed to do such energy-consuming things.

Simple things that could have been solved by keeping silent, but now if you want him to shut up and say nothing, it depends on how Minos pleases him.

The narrow-minded high priest thought so, turned over and fell asleep.

Minos was carried away from the city wall - the priest who rushed over saw Minos' face and knew that he had lost too much blood.

In fact, anyone with a bit of experience can see it, but the warriors have said that Minos has never been injured.

The dignified young priestess glanced at the piece of cloth tied to Minos' hands, raised her head and looked at the warriors with a gentle smile, "It's nothing serious, just rest for half a month, go get busy, Minos Just leave it to us."

The warriors looked at each other and knew that this girl was the next high priest appointed by the current high priest, so they nodded in relief and left Minos' residence.

They still have a lot to do.

Extinguishing the fire, repairing the city gate, recovering the arrows shot out before, and the corpses of wild animals outside the city gate that were not burned by the fire.

Those are pretty important things.

The king of Crete was leading the warriors to do these aftermath tasks, because he was worried that something unexpected would happen if Minos was inexperienced for the first time, and the king of Crete also followed Minos without closing his eyes for two whole days.

Now Minos fainted, but he could not retreat to rest.

But this time the beast tide has brought enough gains to the King of Crete. At least the ability of the future city-state heir has been affirmed by most warriors and priests, and the beast tide has a good solution. Get along well with Si when he comes back, maybe there will be more surprises.

——Oh, of course, the premise is that Minos will not try to completely isolate Surpus from them like a hen guarding his cubs like before.

in the forest.

Thurpus and Miledus entered the cave and watched the wolf king licking the female wolf's wounds. Those wounds, which were originally hideous and terrifying, had now turned into white newborn polyps, and even the shallower wounds had grown A thin layer of fluff came out.

It's only one night.

Thurps smacked his lips, and the effect was immediate.

He touched his stomach, and looked at Silver Wolf hesitantly.

I don’t know if the silver wolf’s blood can restore him to the previous injury—it’s better to use Typhoon’s fang sparingly, and hanging it around his neck can keep him alive. Remind Thurps to be careful and careful, otherwise he will feel the favor of death again.

The sword of death hangs around his neck all the time, making Thurpus restless.

Silver Wolf seemed to have sensed it, turned his head and glanced at him, his gaze fell on the Typhon's Fang hanging around his neck, and then on his previously injured abdomen.

Thurps looked at it expectantly.

The silver wolf looked at it for a while, then finally looked away, and continued to lick the female wolf beside him.

Thurps pursed his lips, and it seemed that Silver Wolf could do nothing.

Miledus watched the interaction between Silver Wolf and Thurps in silence for a while, and frowned, "Brother, are you injured?"

Thurps looked up at Miledus upon hearing this, and smiled, "Do you think I look injured?"

Miledus took a closer look, "It's not like that."

"That's right." Thurpus patted Miredus on the head, "We have to leave, you can discuss with it—whether to go with us or stay here."

Thurpus knew that Miredus would definitely go with him, but now that he had a partner and heir, and his own wolf pack, the wolf king might not be willing to leave the forest.

Hearing what Miledus said before when the beast tide started, the wolf king stayed in the South Forest and was unwilling to leave, so he knew that this silver wolf was not very willing to move his nest.

In all likelihood, they would not be willing to go with them.

Thurps came out of the cave, looked at the young warrior who was playing well with the wolves, and then glanced at Payris who was studying the sleeping mongoose with a serious face.

"Let's discuss what we should do when we return to Crete." Thurpus said, taking the mongoose from Paieris.

Paylist paused, "I will not lie to the king."

"You don't need to lie, just keep silent." Thurps said, pointing to the slave mark on his ankle. "You know, I've always wanted to get rid of this thing."

"Half of the credit is yours—I won't take the credit, after all, I didn't do anything, but you shouldn't take all the credit on yourself." Paieris looked serious, this is a matter of principle, and absolutely cannot back down.

"Then you want the fact that the mongoose is Hydra's child to be known by the whole of Crete?" Thurps asked, "Not everyone can accept a monster's child living in the same city-state as you inner."

"The people of Crete will not ungratefully attack the benefactor who saved the entire city-even if it is a monster."

Thurps snorted, "Are you sure?"

Payris fell silent immediately after being asked such a rhetorical question.

He really wasn't sure that people always had a strong desire to reject and resist strange and powerful aliens, and the weaker the person, the stronger this mentality.

Not to mention living in the same city-state as the mongoose, even knowing such a existence, most people would feel restless.

"Then what do you want to say?" Payis frowned tightly.

"It's very simple." Thurps spread out directly, "You have to keep the existence and identity of the mongoose and the silver wolf king a secret. The three of us will share the credit equally. If you return as heroes, you and your family will be rewarded."

"The high priest will know whether what we are telling is the truth or a lie." Pailis said, "I would rather you give all the credit..."

"It's one thing for the chief priest to know, but it's another thing for him to expose us." Thurps interrupted Payris, and raised his pursed lips, "Don't underestimate Mimi. North."

Payris looked at him in surprise, "Are you connected with Minos?"

"No, but I know he will work hard to clear the way for me in the city-state." Thurps said, "I trust him."

Thurps is quite confident about his current position in Minos' heart. He just thinks that Minos will definitely shine in this beast tide.

For Minos, who will become the king of Crete in the future and become one of the three judges in Netherland after his death, he will not show his ability for one reason or another at this time. , It's too much to say.

Thurps is quite confident in his teachings, for example, he carefully taught Minos' theory of opportunity.

If this kind of timing is not grasped well, he will beat Minos' ass when he goes back-of course, Surpus feels that the possibility of doing it himself is still very small.

Minos was a rather bright boy, much wiser than Miredus, and his spirit was firm and self-reliant.

"Sounds pretty good." Payis said so, looking up at Miledus who came out of the cave, "but sorry, if the king asks, I won't lie, if it's not mine, it's not mine , I won’t take credit for it on me.”

Although he could understand Payris' loyalty to the King of Crete, Thurps was still quite dissatisfied with Payris' inflexible character. He frowned, said nothing, and turned to look at Miledus.

"The wolf king won't come with us." Miledus looked a little disappointed.

"You'll have a chance to come back and see it later. Or when we leave Crete in the future, we take the whole wolf pack with us.

Thurps didn't say the second half of the sentence.

No matter what, this group of wolves can be regarded as very powerful fighting power, and it might really be effective by then.

Of course, the premise is that the wolf king is willing to move with them.

"I know that separation is always inevitable, and we can still look forward to the next reunion." After Miredus finished speaking, he raised a smiling face and looked at Thurps, "Am I right?"

"Well, I didn't miss a single word." Thurps nodded, feeling very relieved that his brother still clearly remembered the words he taught before.

"Let's go back quickly, otherwise it will be too much to hit a large number of wild beasts and return to the forest later."

Of course no one would object.

When they returned to Crete, they were indeed treated like heroes—the gates of the city hadn’t been cleaned up, but the moment they saw them, warriors and civilians rushed out of the city, fragrant dried flowers and finely chopped olive leaves The girls took it out of the basket and waved it at them. When they looked at Payris and the young warrior, their eyes were full of admiration and joy.

There is no girl who would not want to marry a powerful warrior who will bring wealth and glory to her family and city-state.

Surpus knew that the enthusiasm of the girls could not be aimed at him and Miledus, so he hugged the sleeping mongoose tightly in his arms, looked into the crowd, and did not see Minos at the first time Surprised him.

He did not forget that Miredus was only wearing an animal skin skirt.

So
