To be king [Greek mythology]

, are the true subjects of Poseidon, not believers, so they can live comfortably in this sea area.

"It's really bad news." Thurps sighed, staring at the sea area, hesitated for a while between drowning and drowning, and finally chose to drown...

Anyway, I just went in, and I can still run back after struggling a bit.

Should not die.

Thinking of this, Thurps swiped the oar in his hand, and carried the boat directly into the Sea God Temple.

But surprisingly—he didn't sink.

Together with that ship, it floated safely in this abnormal sea area.

Thurps reflexively looked down at Typhon's Fang hanging around his neck.

Sure enough, Typhon's Fang was emitting a warm white shimmer.

"Tsk..." Surps thinks this is really a fun thing. Before Radamandes and Sarpedon put Minos to death for the gift given by Zeus, Surps has been in the past eight years. Every time I receive the favor of Typhon's Fang, I feel very empathetic.

Such a good thing, knowing such existence, how could it be willing to give up.

I don’t know what Radamandis and Sarpedon are holding—this question has flashed through Thurpus’s mind countless times, and the greed in his heart is also ready to move, but in the end it was overwhelmed by reason. Didn't do anything against my principles.

Surpus didn't know what was in the Temple of Poseidon.

According to the priests, everyone's experience will be different.

Almost all of them are trials for the soul.

Usually, the successor who was favored by the chief priest during the trial of the Sea God Temple would be able to see the phantom of Poseidon during the trial.

If you don't see it, then the successor has to be replaced.

Thurps looked up at the sky, paddling the paddle in his hand but still felt no resistance as before.

Surps looked back and saw that the border was getting farther and farther away from him. The sea breeze on the calm sea carried a salty smell that only belonged to the ocean. It seemed that a pair of invisible hands were moving this small fishing boat to this place. Pushed across the middle of a quiet sea area.

Surps looked at the sun and counted the time. When a gray phantom appeared on the horizon, he hurriedly stood up, only to find that it was the coast he had just left.

The few priests and warriors were busy, and Surps saw a simple and crude wooden boat moored on the simple pier on the shore, which looked extremely fragile and could not withstand the slightest wind and waves.

Thurps narrowed his eyes, and gradually approached the shore under the impetus of that force.

He finally saw why the priests and warriors were so busy.

Minos was drenched and pale, and his lips were a shocking purple.

Thurpus pursed his lips, looked at Minos with his eyes closed, and his heart suddenly hung up.

Minos drowned.

Chapter 38

Thurpus thought he would be pushed to the center of the Sea God Temple, which is the place where the priests said he was being tested.

Perhaps he would meet Minos there, who was being abused or had been abused.

Instead of floating on the sea and watching Minos lying on the shore completely stunned like now.

A warrior spotted Surpus, his eyes widened in surprise, he stretched out his hand to grab the priest beside him, pointed to the sea and said something.

The priest's gaze followed the direction he pointed, his eyes widened in the same astonishment.

The Typhon's tooth on Thurpus' neck was stuffed into his clothes by him, carefully hidden, not exposed.

The priest said a few words to the warrior beside him, the warrior nodded, turned his head and ran towards the city-state.

Surpus guessed that the warrior probably went to inform the people in the city-state of what happened here—especially Minos, who was lying on the beach now.

The priests stood on the seashore and stepped directly into the sea. They couldn't get close to the depths of the Sea God's Temple, but there would be no problem near the shallow sea.

Surpus, who couldn't control the speed of the ship by himself, looked at the priest who was approaching him quickly, and raised his voice and asked, "What's wrong with Minos?"

"Obviously, his trial failed, maybe he angered Poseidon, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible." The priest pulled the boat he was on and quickly approached the shore, and asked with a serious face: "You How did you get into the Sea God Temple—and this ship."

"Ordinary fishermen's boats." Surpus said, staring closely at Minos lying on the beach, "Will Minos be okay?"

"Are you sure you're not lying?" The priest frowned and looked Thurpus up and down, "Poseidon chose you...but Minos almost died."

Surpus still didn't have the slightest power of a god, but the priest couldn't help thinking about it—for example, the ambiguous relationship between Surpus and the chief priest in the past eight years.

But if this is the case, then why did the chief priest show no sign of changing his successor?

The priest frowned.

"I'm not interested in the position of the priest at all, and I haven't seen Poseidon. I believe in Apollo!" Seppus finally moved his eyes away from Minos, sounding a little irritable, "I just want to know , will something happen to Minos?"

"..." On the territory of Crete, he told the priest who served Poseidon that he believed in Apollo. The priest felt that this man was really courageous.

Thurps glanced at the silent priest, and the fact that he couldn't get close to knowing the situation quickly made him frown, "Speak."

"I can't tell." The priest glanced at him, "We won't know until the chief priest arrives."

"High Priest?" Thurps clicked his tongue.

When the high priest arrived, Minos would have to be tossed to death, if not dead.

Thurps didn't know why the pervert was so keen on torturing Minos.

If it weren't for the high priest to see Radamandis, Thurps almost felt that the high priest was with Radamandis.

The priest gave Thurps a dissatisfied look.

Even though the temple is closely related to the warriors of Crete, most of the priests are quite unfamiliar with Thurps, a magical figure who enters the temple almost once a year due to injury. of.

Thurps also knew that he had nothing to say to this strange priest, and when he could almost step on the sand on the bottom of the sea, he abandoned the boat and ran to the shore.

The seawater soaked his robe, and there was coolness from the water but no resistance from the water, and he couldn't feel the power of the waves. Thurpus found that he could even run in the water.

The priest only felt his hands sink.

The wooden boat that broke away from Thurps sank directly to the bottom of the shallow talk as if it had lost its support.

The priest looked at Surpus who was running unimpeded in the sea in surprise, let go of the hand holding the wooden boat, and followed Surpus to the shore.

The chief priest really had no reason to value a warrior so persistently—even if the warrior was so powerful at a young age, he would not be persistent for eight years.

You must know that eight years ago, Thurps was just a child who had just been released from slavery.

"How is he?" Thurps looked at the warrior who was guarding the most basic first aid method he had taught before, and the priest who was casting divine spells but did not help Minos at all.

"I don't know, it does look like I'm drowning, but I didn't spit out any water." The warrior was sweating profusely, anxiously.

Minos is the heir to the city-state recognized by the whole of Crete. If something happened, those who are present now will definitely bear the responsibility of the king of Crete who has already stepped into old age.

It won't have much impact, but it will lose the trust of the king and the city-state.

"Didn't he come back at noon?" Surpus looked up at the priest, wiped off the weightless but itchy water that was rolling down his body, with dissatisfaction and anger, "You also said, Poseidon never harms those who take part in trials."

Although he had thought that Minos would have an accident in nine out of ten, but when faced with this fact, Surpus couldn't calmly face the picture he had imagined.

Minos was lying on the beach, soaked all over, without any scars, but his face was terribly white, his lips had turned purple, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and his breathing was weak.

His hair and body were covered with fine sand, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

Thurps put his hand on Minos' chest.

Minos' body temperature was as cold as ice, Thurpus felt the weak heartbeat under the ice, pursed his lips, and felt his heartbeat slow down along with Minos's.

"I don't know why..." The priest shook his head, "There has never been such a case, I think it should be Minos..."

"Minos is only because of the blood of Zeus!" Surpus interrupted the priest, "His biggest mistake is that he went to Crete, which believes in Poseidon, because he has the blood of Zeus!"

Careful gods.

Just as the priest wanted to refute, he was startled by Surpus's bloodshot eyes, and the words that reached his throat turned around and swallowed back.

Thurpus withdrew his gaze from the priest, took a deep breath, turned Typhon's tooth out from the cover of his clothes, hesitated for a while, finally gritted his teeth and took Typhon's tooth out.

Thurps wondered if it was worth it.

He always felt that it was true that he survived, but every time he saw that Minos was tricked or that he accidentally let himself fall into a situation where he was seriously injured and dying, Thurps would always raise his head and throw If you don't want yourself, you have to keep Minos' idea.

But Minos has carried it down again and again, and has grown amazingly.
