The Greece Antagonist

Chapter 80: Chapter 73: The gap between people is even greater than between people and dogs



What is that?!

At that moment, Little Medusa, who had just been entranced by the singing, suddenly snapped to consciousness. Instinctively, she flapped her metallic wings, pulled back a hundred paces, and looked over the sea with an unsettled soul.

Through the night's mist, she shockingly saw a small mountain rising silently from the nearby waters, twisting and writhing madly in the darkness.

No, it wasn't a small mountain!

Little Medusa's red-purple magical eyes forced themselves wide open and, with the faint starlight, she could clearly see the true form of that thing.

It was a huge sea beast with six heads and twelve octopus-like tentacles!

The tentacle that had stealthily attacked her from behind was one of these twelve octopus-like tentacles.

—The deep-sea monster Scylla!

Upon calling the name of this deity-like monster in her mind, Little Medusa became extremely guarded, instinctively adopting a defensive stance.

Scylla was one of the many offspring of Phorcys, the father of sea beasts. It was said that she once had the beautiful form of an ocean nymph, but was cursed by Poseidon's wife, Queen Amphitrite, and turned into an ugly sea monster with six heads and twelve tentacles.

Since then, she had been wandering the Strait of Messina, preying on passing ships and sailors, and leaving behind numerous terrifying legends in human city-states.

Of course, there was no shortage of human heroes who went forth to battle this scourge blocking the sea lanes.

But without exception, they all failed.

On the one hand, Scylla had an extraordinary home-field advantage in sea battles.

On the other hand, being one of Phorcys's notable offspring, her strength was beyond question—she was a top-tier demigod. Stay updated with m-v l|e'm,p y r

A regular demigod hero confronting her was not going on a conquest, but delivering themselves as an easy prey!

Even this creature had come out from the deep sea?

Little Medusa thought about the harrowing moment from just before and couldn't help but feel frightened, looking gratefully towards the figure who had alerted her from the fortress and blocked the fatal blow.

At the same time, Luo En, who had miraculously stayed clear-headed through the enchanting singing and pulled the others out of their bewitched state, held onto the wristband that continued to send a cool chill through his hand, his eyes filled with relief.

Praise Athena!

Luckily he had previously obtained a piece of equipment that resisted mental disturbances from her. Otherwise, facing the Siren's song would indeed have been fatal.

Especially—an ensemble of three top-tier demigods!

Luo En looked up towards the sea surface, his gaze moving beyond Scylla's undulating flesh-mountain to the three enchanting figures in the midst of the beast tide, brimming with the rich aura of demigods.

Under the reflection of the starlight, they were sitting calmly on the back of a great whale, their vital points covered by a string of pure white seashells, with their long hair spreading over their slender, lustrous shoulders.

And as his gaze continued downward, he could see their dazzling fish tails immersed in the sea.

Their upper bodies were those of beautiful maidens, their lower halves colorful fish tails…

It was the three Siren sisters!

Luo En's gaze froze, and his heart sunk.

The original Sirens were the three daughters of the river god Achelous, born from his blood, beautiful fairies with the appearance of human-faced birds.

But after losing a music competition with the Muse Goddesses, their wings were plucked, and they couldn't fly.

Thereafter, having lost their wings, the three Siren sisters could only drift near the coastline, transforming into the image of mermaids with human torsos and fish tails, using their musical talent to allure passing sailors to their doom.

That is to say, there were two kinds of Sirens.

The human-faced bird-bodied group mostly consisted of degraded descendants derived from the bloodline of the three Siren sisters.

And these three beautiful mermaids with the image of human torsos and fish tails were the original beings who had competed with the Muse Goddesses, those whose wings had been stripped!

Every one of them had the strength of a top Demigod.

Meanwhile, the triplets of the Sirens at sea found that their irresistibly enchanting singing had failed to take effect. Their beautiful faces involuntarily contorted into twisted and sinister visages.

"Laaaa——!"

Accompanied by a shrill and piercing chant, the sea waves surged violently, with billions of tons of seawater swirling into a backward spiral, forming a vortex hundreds of meters in diameter that dipped inward before transforming into a bottomless gaping maw.

In an instant, hundreds of Sea Beasts that failed to dodge in time were sucked into it.

"Crack——!"

Followed by the teeth-grinding sound of bones shattering and flesh tearing, they did not even have the chance to wail before turning into mush and blood mist, devoured completely by the roiling whirlpool.

Nourished by the carnage, a faint burp echoed from the vast vortex on the sea's surface.

Afterwards, the pitch-black millions of tons of seawater surged upward, taking on the visage of a woman's face.

The black vortex was her gaping mouth, the limbs of Sea Beasts were her teeth, and the swirling seawater formed her skin and flesh.

The human Soldiers on the fortress, facing the once bedtime horror story come to life before their eyes, could not help but feel a chill at the bottom of their hearts, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.

——The Great Vortex, Charybdis!

She was the monster born from the union of Sea King Poseidon and Earth Goddess Gaea, perpetually thirsty and hungry, madly devouring everything around her, and thus was imprisoned in the Strait of Messina.

To satiate her endless hunger, the fallen Charybdis consumed vast quantities of seawater every day, creating immense whirlpools at sea that devoured all passing ships and life.

She and the deep-sea monstrosity Scylla neighbored each other, turning the areas they inhabited into forbidden zones for maritime life, where bones accumulated in heaps.

Their infamous reputation became the nightmare of numerous sailors and those making a living at sea, instilled in them since childhood.

Similarly, the reason why the Great Vortex Charybdis had survived until now, constantly causing trouble, was partly due to the protection of the God of the Sea Poseidon and partly because of her top Demigod strength.

Gazing at the onslaught of five top Demigod sea monsters emerging within the tide, the Crown Prince commanding the front line felt his heart race, his back and palms soaking with cold sweat.

It is well known that the difference between people is greater than that between a person and a dog.

This rule applies equally to the Demigod race with extremely disparate upper and lower bounds.

Some Demigods merely possess an accumulation of Magic Power, their Divinity impure and mixed.

Some Demigods are invincible among mortals, so powerful they could challenge the Deities on Mount Olympus.

Although not as outstanding as his sister, Princess Ariadne, the Prince of Crete also succeeded in his Ascension into the Demigod ranks due to his prestigious bloodline, standing out among his younger peers.

Unfortunately, the five across the waters were even more outlandish.

They were either the monstrous and fallen direct descendants of the Chief Gods and ancient gods, or the cursed monsters that had dared to challenge the deities!

Pack after pack who sought to defeat them and never returned had provided bloody lessons verifying a brutal truth.

——These monsters had long since become entities that ordinary Demigod heroes could no longer contend with.

To stop them, unless...

Just as the Crown Prince subconsciously turned his head to look back, the Great Vortex Charybdis, having momentarily satisfied herself by devouring nearly a thousand Sea Beasts nearby, began to rise. Her gigantic woman's face surged upwards, her demonic essence radiating, drawing billions of tons of seawater to construct a transparent torso.

Subsequently, the humanoid form of the Great Vortex Charybdis looked down upon the fortress's white and tender swarm of little humans, her face displaying a brutal and ferocious smile as she swung her arms, made of tens of meters long water, ferociously forward.

Whoosh——!

In an instant, the pitch-dark sea violently churned, with roaring waves sweeping across, swiftly flooding the wreckage-littered forebeach and rushing towards the coastal fortress.

Dozens of raised Defensive Charms were annihilated in a moment, as an overwhelming curtain of water descended with a force as unstoppable as a thunderbolt!

For a time, humans, feeble and insignificant without the protection of their barrier in the face of divine might, turned ashen-faced, losing even the courage to resist or flee.
