"Tell me, what if you really marry Artemis to Hades?" Zeus slapped his forehead and asked Hermes.He felt that it was not impossible to give his brother some compensation.

"Artemis swore an oath. If she is forced to become Hades' wife, she might be killed. Apollo will not sit idly by. And if Artemis becomes Hades, What about Persephone, Demeter won't agree." Hermes hurriedly stopped, if Zeus really did this, no one knows what will happen.

But in the worst case, it is estimated that there will be a second battle of the Titans.

"Anyway, we want to go see Hades and find out what happened before making a decision." Zeus also felt that his consideration was a bit immature, so he said to Hermes.

"Then I'll take a step first to inform Hades that you're going." Hermes said as he turned around and left. He didn't want to face the angry Pluto, so it's better to walk quickly at this time, but his foot The last time he tried hard, he found that he couldn't move at all.

Seeing that Zeus reached out and grabbed Hermes' shoulder, he said with a smile on his face.

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome, Hermes. To show our sincerity, let's go to the underworld together."

==================

Battle of the Titans (264) Lantern Beast War: [-] The Beaten Hermes

It can be said that Zeus and Hermes went to the underworld with ease.

Even Zeus habitually wanted to enter in the form of Hades, but only after being stopped by Hermes did he realize that he was here to do something serious.

When they came to the gate of the underworld, the two found that today's underworld is a bit strange.

Because the gate of the underworld, which is usually wide open, is closed tightly at this time, and even Kerpalos, who used to guard here, has disappeared.

Feeling a little strange, Zeus did not rush into the underworld, but patted Hermes beside him.

"Go, Hermes, and tell Hades I'm coming."

Obviously, the abnormality of the underworld caught the attention of Zeus, and he sent Hermes into the underworld to prevent Hades from really having any bad ideas and make him a scapegoat.

Hermes cursed secretly, but he couldn't refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and walk up.

Reaching out to pat the gate of the underworld, Hermes shouted loudly. "Is anyone there? I am Hermes, and I am here to deliver a message to you under the order of Zeus."

However, there was no response from inside the gate, only the breathing of Hermes and Zeus was quiet around.

Hermes looked back at Zeus and wanted to retreat, but saw Zeus wave him directly in.

After cursing Zeus again, Hermes took a deep breath, and slowly pushed open the gate of the underworld to allow people to enter.

Looking at the gloomy underworld with no light inside the door, Hermes swallowed, gritted his teeth for the last time, and walked in.

After Hermes entered, the gate of the underworld was instantly closed.

Seeing this, Zeus slipped to the side of the gate of the underworld, and raised his ears to listen for the movement inside.

However, there was no movement in the gate of the underworld, as if Hermes who just entered had been swallowed.

Zeus circled around the gate a few times, but in the end he still couldn't make up his mind to go in.

He understands the power of Hades. Even if he has the help of lightning, it is impossible to defeat Hades who is the king of Hades in the underworld.

As for Hermes, Hades probably wouldn't kill Hermes, he should just leave him for punishment, and when Hades relieves his anger, he should put Hermes back.

Well, think of it as Hermes leaking his whereabouts to Artemis before the punishment.

Convincing himself, Zeus turned around and planned to leave.

But at this moment, the gate of the underworld suddenly opened, and Hermes, who had a bruised nose and even a broken leg, was thrown out as if he had been thrown garbage.

Zeus gasped when he saw this, because it seemed that he might really be facing the worst situation.

He hurried over to help Hermes up, and asked urgently; "What's the matter, Hermes, who hit you with this injury, and what happened?"

"Zeus, Hades has severed all ties with us. He said that he would close the underworld forever and never communicate with us." Hermes said while grabbing Zeus with snot and tears, his face full of grievances.

"What's going on, please explain clearly!" Zeus asked loudly.

================

Go forward in time, back to the time when Hermes just entered the underworld.

Hearing the sudden closing of the door behind him, Hermes was taken aback. He quickly turned around and stretched out his hand to open the door again, but found that the door of the underworld was still motionless.

Hermes yelled badly in his heart, and he shouted loudly; "Hades, I came to the underworld on behalf of Zeus, so don't attack me, I didn't do anything!"

However, before Hermes could finish speaking, a fist suddenly appeared in the darkness and hit Hermes in the eye socket, knocking him down to the ground.

Hermes fell to the ground in response, covered his dizzy head and kept backing away, and finally leaned against the door and shouted: "Why hit me, I really didn't do anything!"

"Didn't do anything?" Hades appeared in front of Hermes with a gloomy face, then reached out and grabbed Hermes by the collar and grabbed him. "Bastard, you obviously did everything!"

After all, Hades threw Hermes over his shoulder and threw Hermes to the ground again. With a bang, several cracks even appeared on the stone slab of the underworld.

"You still have Zeus, Apollo, Ares and even Hephaestus, what did you do while I wasn't around?!" Hades grabbed Hermes and held him up. In front of his eyes, while roaring angrily, he kept hitting Hermes' body with his fists.

"Especially damn Zeus, who pretended to be me and did such a thing while I wasn't paying attention, do you think I would endure it?" Hades roared and threw Hermes to the ground, then ruthlessly He kicked Hermes hard on the calf.

With a click, Hermes' calf broke, and he broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.

However, compared to the pain on his body, Hermes felt the most uncomfortable in his heart at this moment.

To be honest, he and Persephone only had one encounter, far inferior to Zeus and Hephaestus, but now he is suffering and being beaten, and the real culprit is outside unscathed.

And looking at Hades' angry look, it is obvious that he will not let it go, and it is not surprising that he will be imprisoned in the underworld for thousands of years.

Thinking of this, Hermes also shouted angrily.

"What's the use of you just talking about me, if you have the ability, go talk about Zeus!"

"...Do you think I dare not!" Hades was obviously choked by Hermes, but soon he became angry and grabbed Hermes to continue punishing him.

Seeing this, Hermes struggled vigorously, but the difference in strength between Hades and Hades was too great, and he was powerless to resist.

Seeing Hades rounded his fist, he could only curse in the end.

"If you say we are dirty, don't you think the same?"

"When did I do such a thing, bastard?" Hades was even angrier when he heard that, the little thief dared to slander his innocence.

"How dare you say that you peeked at other goddesses taking a shower without wearing an invisibility helmet?!" Hermes shouted loudly.

His questioning made Hades hesitant, and even began to wonder whether he had done such a thing.

If I really want to say, he actually saw Persephone taking a bath by accident when he was wearing the invisibility helmet before, and it was because of this that he was attracted by Persephone and finally married her.

Seeing that Hades hesitated, Hermes thought that Hades had admitted that he was spying on Artemis.

"Ha, you still have the face to criticize me. Didn't you do the same thing in the end, and you still want to marry someone back to be the queen of the underworld? It's really shameless!" Hermes laughed and mocked fiercely. with Hades.

Hades heard the words and only felt a fire rushing to his head.

=============

Battle of the Titans (265) Lantern Beast War: [-] The seeds of the future have been planted

The angry Hades punched Hermes on the chin, causing the other party to lose the ability to speak.

Then Hades grabbed Hermes' neck, glared at him and said word by word.

"I've had enough of you bastards. From now on, the underworld does not welcome any Olympus gods to appear here. From today, the underworld will cut off contact with Mount Olympus!"

After speaking, Hades reached out to open the door, threw Hermes out of the underworld, and then closed the door heavily.

=========

After Hermes explained everything to Zeus, he looked at Zeus eagerly, hoping to avenge himself and teach Hades a lesson.

But in his disappointed eyes, Zeus was discouraged.

To be precise, Zeus didn't want to fight Hades in the underworld.

Everyone knows that honest people don't get angry easily, but it's terrible if they get angry.

Hades is recognized as an honest man among the gods, and it is no surprise that he got angry and did what Zeus did.

For fear of further angering Hades, he asked Hades to release the Titans locked in Tartarus.

Although Hades was also a member of the team that defeated the Titans, the Titans would definitely not mind cooperating with Hades compared to Zeus.

Moreover, there is no god of the underworld among the Titans, so the replacement of the Olympian gods by the Titans will not even affect the status of Hades. It can be said that the basis for cooperation between the two parties is very large.

"In any case, Hades is the king of the underworld. Even I can't overturn the judgment he made in the underworld. So even I can't enter the underworld." Zeus said to Hermes with a face full of unwillingness, It seems to be showing his powerlessness.

"But..." Hermes thought to himself, why did you disregard Hades being the god of the underworld before, dictating all kinds of infringements on the underworld, and now you are suddenly discouraged at this time.

In the past, Zeus relied on Hades' honesty and often invaded Hades' rights in the underworld, but now as Hades really uses the rights belonging to Hades, Zeus dared not do anything for a while.

"Okay, that's it." Zeus interrupted Hermes, turned and left. "I'm going back to Mount Olympus to announce this matter. You can recover from your injuries here."

After finishing speaking, the figure of Zeus disappeared in front of Hermes, leaving Hermes lying alone in front of the cold gate of the underworld with his body hurt and his leg broken.

"Just wait for me, one day." Watching Zeus abandon himself, Hermes gritted his teeth and moved his body to a piece of rock.

To be honest, it was dark and cold here, and the wind blowing from nowhere not only made Hermes' broken bones ache, but also chilled his heart.

Although God's injuries will gradually recover, in the terrible environment of the underworld, Hermes may take ten times a hundred times longer to recover, and he will have to endure the torture here until he recovers.

After an unknown amount of time, Hermes vaguely saw a light in the distance.

He immediately remembered something, and crawled towards the light with all his might.

Finally, he saw what the light was.

It was a lantern, and the owner of the lantern was Charon, the ferryman of the River Styx.

Hermes was ecstatic and shouted loudly.

"Charon, Charon, look here!"

"Oh?" Charon sent a batch of souls ashore, then followed the sound curiously, and found Hermes lying on the ground.

"Isn't this the messenger of the gods, the great Hermes? Why are you lying here?" Charon chuckled in a low voice, seeming to gloat over Hermes' misfortune.

"It's a long story." Hermes didn't have the nerve to talk about how he was beaten by Hades. "Charon, can you carry me to the world?"

"Of course." Charon nodded without refusing.

"Great!" Hermes was overjoyed, and crawled over with all his strength, but when he was about to board the boat, a dark and thick oar suddenly appeared in front of him.

Hermes looked up at Charon with a livid face; "What do you mean?"

"Don't be surprised, Hermes, anyone who wants to take my boat has to pay the fare, you know this rule."

"But I have no money." How could Hermes prepare human coins, and looked at Charon blankly.

"Then I'm sorry, it seems that I can only pick you up in a year." Charon said with a paddle on the shore and planned to leave.

Seeing that Charon was about to leave, Hermes hurriedly shouted; "Wait, although I don't have any money, I can use the secrets of other gods as the ship's fare!"

"Secret?" Charon squeezed his chin with his hand, then stretched out three fingers to Hermes. "It must be three valuable secrets that I don't know."

"Yes." Hermes gritted his teeth, as long as he can leave the underworld now, he is willing to pay these prices.

"By the way, you have to give me your hat too." Charon continued.

"...Okay!" Hermes gritted his teeth and agreed.

"Then please sit down."

Charon laughed and let Hermes board his boat.

Along the way, Hermes told Charon three secrets, all related to Zeus.Who made Zeus abandon him.

Charon listened cheerfully, and moved the boat to the river Styx, which is the closest to the present world.

After getting off the boat, Hermes looked at Charon with a dark face while looking at the dark road ahead.

This is where Roja and Athena boarded the boat. Although it is the closest to the present world, there is still a long way to go.

"Don't look at me like that, Hermes. I'm the ferryman of the River Styx, and this is the closest part of the River Styx to the human world. As long as you walk up this road, it will take about ten hours. You can return to the present world." Charon explained with a smile.

"Bastard." Hermes cursed, and had no choice but to limp and jump off the boat.

"By the way, don't forget the hat you promised me." Charon added.

Hermes didn't say anything but took a deep look at Charon, and then threw the hat with two small golden wings on his head to Charon fiercely.

Charon reached out to take it and put it on his head.

"This shiny hat is perfect for lighting me up." Charon said with a smile, and then left with a paddle, not forgetting to say goodbye to Hermes when he left. "Then I'll leave. Next time, Hermes, if you still want to make a boat, I can give you a discount."

"Bastard." Cursed blankly, Hermes slowly moved his body and walked up the road.
