Chapter 162: The Enraged God King
The Lady of Night was dizzied by the barrage of words, her divinity momentarily spinning. The flames of her rage had become corporeal, transforming into the Nine Netherworld Flames, formless and intangible in the darkness, yet potent enough to devour all.
In a battle of words, she was indeed no match for this Goddess of Civilization.
However, she was never a goddess who engaged solely in verbal disputes!
Goddess Nyx gritted her teeth, her jaw clenching audibly. With a sweep of her jade arm, endless darkness surged like a churning tide, directly towards Mnemosyne.
What’s there to talk about! Let’s fight!
“You shameless goddess! You’re simply jealous that Zeus loves me! Jealous that Zeus bestows all that is beautiful upon me!”
The Lady of Night roared and charged. Instantly, the entire magnificent mountain peak, along with the incredibly ornate Divine Palace belonging to the Civilization Memory Goddess, was crushed by this pure darkness, reduced to the most primal elemental dust.
Her rage caused everything within this darkness to be thoroughly eroded and devoured, then directly cast into the lowest depths of the Underworld.
But this attack had no effect on the Goddess of Civilization; she easily evaded the Lady of Night’s encroaching darkness.
A crisp and melodious laugh echoed through the pitch-black darkness, filled with undisguised mockery.
“Can your authority compare to mine? Do you know the honors my children with Zeus possess?”
“The civilizations of all living beings in this universe will be under my children’s control!”
As soon as she spoke, a memory that the Lady of Night had forcibly deleted from her mind reappeared.
Moreover, this time, the image became clearer and more vivid, as if she were experiencing it firsthand.
The enraged Nyx once again deleted the memory from her mind that was making her almost faint with anger.
But her deletion speed was no match for Mnemosyne’s speed of retransmission.
Soon, the Lady of Night’s destructive actions began to become obscure and sluggish.
Her memory was being influenced.
Her combat instincts and action logic began to suffer fatal ruptures. The core memories of “why she fought” and “how she fought” were being continuously deleted, distorted, and reshaped, plunging her divinity into a vortex of chaos.
If she had not been prepared, having backed up all her memories in real-time to her “Night” origin before acting, allowing for instant recovery.
She would likely have long been toyed with at Mnemosyne’s fingertips.
However, even so, the continuously modified, deleted, and added memories rendered her offensive actions meaningless.
Mnemosyne, in ordinary times, rarely needed to act.
But the moment she acted, she immediately held an invincible position.
If her opponent were not the equally powerful Lady of Night, but any other god, she could have easily toyed with them.
The authority of “Memory” might seem inconspicuous, but it was an almost invincible power.
Moreover, the Omniscient Goddess was already being quite restrained, not truly arbitrarily altering memories, otherwise…
Now, this pitiful Lady of Night was powerless and increasingly frustrated.
She couldn’t help but let out shrieks amidst her boundless rage.
The pure darkness of her anger rapidly spread, no longer just destroying Mnemosyne’s divine peak.
This Goddess of Night, on the verge of losing her sanity in rage, unleashed her destructive power, which began to spread throughout Mount Olympus.
However, the Goddess of Memory was merely toying with the Lady of Night; actually causing her any real harm was impossible.
Zeus watched the commotion outside, and for a moment, he felt an even greater headache.
With such a huge disturbance, no god on Mount Olympus was unaware of it.
Many gods watched the scene from afar, their faces filled with excitement.
Even in their endless lives, such scenes were rare!
Two supreme Goddesses were actually fighting!
And they were fighting over the God King!
This spectacle was truly worth watching!
As for anyone trying to break them up, there was not a single one.
Either they dared not, or they did not want to. Even if there were those who could mediate, they had not arrived yet.
It was currently daytime, and Helios, who was in the sky, had already driven the sun to its zenith.
However, upon seeing the scene of two goddesses fighting from afar in the sky, he turned back to watch the spectacle, completely abandoning his sacred duty.
And the Astraeus brothers, who were at the edge of the starry sky, saw an anomaly on Olympus and immediately rushed back from beyond the stars, ready to protect the divine realm!
But upon arrival, they discovered it was merely two goddesses fighting.
So, the three brothers no longer hurried back into the starry sky but stood at a distance with the other gods, quietly discussing and watching the spectacle with great interest.
After all, who in this world doesn’t enjoy watching goddesses fight?
Many goddesses also gloated, watching from the sidelines with cold eyes.
Many goddesses were thinking: Fight, fight, and preferably make it worse, preferably infuriating Zeus completely, so that He would never pay attention to you again!
You two shameless little gods! The Goddess of Wisdom hasn’t even said anything, yet you’re already fighting!
Truly shameless!
Below Mount Olympus, the gods and nymphs waiting for all the gods of the entire universe to arrive, preparing to pay homage to the God King and attend the upcoming Council of Gods, witnessed an incredibly terrifying scene.
An ultimate, pure “night” suddenly enveloped a magnificent peak of Mount Olympus, leveling the peak and the divine palace in an instant.
And soon, it began to spread towards the entire Mount Olympus.
In the sky, several dazzling starlight fell like meteors.
Even the sacred sun, which should have been high in the sky, reversed its course and headed towards Olympus.
For a moment, the gods were in a state of chaos and unease.
Some of the more timid gods were already contemplating whether they should flee.
They were truly afraid that some unknown and terrifying battle had occurred again; with their fragile bodies, they were like leaves in the wind, candles in the rain.
Even a slight involvement would lead to a fate with no burial place!
Most of them did not have the protection of laws; they would truly die!
Zeus sighed deeply, not just because the two goddesses were fighting, which was a minor matter.
What truly frustrated him was the reaction of the gods.
So many gods had abandoned their duties entirely to watch the spectacle!
Look at the sky!
The sun had turned back!
This influence was too detrimental!
His gaze penetrated layers of obstruction, looking at the gods gathered at the foot of the mountain, their hearts filled with anxiety; he was truly weary.
The Heavenly Dao System must be implemented quickly!
The gods were far too casual; they had not yet become accustomed to a more rigorous new order.
However, this was also an opportunity.
Only when he felt the time was right, when the two goddesses had truly ignited their fury and the destruction was about to spiral out of control, did Zeus move.
Accompanied by a thunderclap on a clear sky, Zeus, with a face like cold jade and no emotion, arrived in the battlefield.
With a wave of the God King’s hand, endless lightning instantly transformed into several ferocious golden electric dragons, roaring as they charged into the deep darkness, completely binding the two goddesses who seemed to be fighting fiercely but were actually rather bored.
The two goddesses, caught up in the heat of battle, felt their divine bodies tingle from the sudden sacred lightning. Their reason, blinded by rage and jealousy, was finally forcibly recalled.
Looking up, they saw Zeus’s incredibly stern and serious face, a sight never before seen on his handsome and gentle countenance.
Their hearts trembled. Seeing the devastated surroundings, they felt a sense of panic.
Zeus seemed genuinely angry.
For a moment, a trace of fear involuntarily arose within them.
The two goddesses quickly withdrew their divine power, feeling uneasy.
They had both intended to rush into Zeus’s arms at the first opportunity to complain.
However, upon seeing Zeus’s stern, severe, and emotionless expression, and under the eyes of all, they ultimately did not dare to do so.
Mnemosyne could no longer discern Zeus’s true thoughts; she couldn’t be sure if Zeus was genuinely angry or using this as an excuse.
However, she dared not gamble.
Zeus remained silent, his golden eyes of authority fixing coldly on the surrounding gods who were watching the spectacle.
Some gods sensed the wrong atmosphere and tried to slip away, but under Zeus’s sharp gaze, they froze in place.
The deep darkness began to rapidly dissipate, but on the sky that should have been clear, endless dark clouds began to gather slowly, spreading until they obscured the entire Mount Olympus.
All the gods could tell that the Great God King was truly enraged this time.
Zeus issued a command in an extremely cold voice: “All gods, to the Assembly Hall.”
As his words fell, his form transformed into a brilliant electric light, preceding them to the magnificent hall.
Zeus sat sternly upon the Supreme God King’s throne, his hand open, the God King’s Scepter falling into his grasp, shimmering with the radiance of lightning. The atmosphere in the entire Assembly Hall was one of solemnity and killing intent.
Although Zeus departed, the dark clouds in the sky did not disperse; instead, they grew denser and thicker, gradually spreading until they covered the entire Mount Olympus.
The gods present exchanged glances, their hearts filled with apprehension, and then they all set off for the Assembly Hall.
