Chapter 24: Hermes Is the Gatekeeper!? Don’t Even Think About Stopping Me!
One day had passed.
The Olympus Mountain range was so huge that, on the horizon in the distant deity world, a hint of white was finally visible.
At this moment, Jonah finally arrived at the peak of the Olympus Mountain range. He was only about half an hour away from the Hera Temple.
He could already see the Hera Temple looming in the clouds from afar.
If Poseidon were to start flying now, he would probably reach the Hera Temple in less than two to three minutes.
However, Jonah would definitely not do that. The sea god’s power that he used to fly would surely be detected by Zeus in his temple not far away.
After all, he was the only one who possessed the power of the sea in the Olympus Mountains.
Presumably, Zeus, who was naturally suspicious would definitely personally check in on the situation.
However, at this moment, Jonah could faintly sense the fluctuations of an Olympian.
Could it be that there was more than one Olympian present in Hera’s temple besides Hera?
Jonah frowned slightly. In an instant, the names of the twelve Olympians appeared in his mind.
First of all, excluding Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and Athena, the goddess of victory. These two goddesses had already been captured by him. Jonah had thoroughly understood them through having sex with them.
Secondly, he excluded Zeus and Ares, the god of war.
Thus, the remaining six Olympians were Demeter, the goddess of agriculture; Apollo, the god of light; Artemis, the goddess of hunting; Hephaestus, the god of fire; Hestia, the goddess of hearth and Hermes, the messenger of the gods.
Apollo, the god of light, and Artemis, the goddess of hunting had never been on good terms with Hera, so they could be excluded.
Hestia, the goddess of hearth, was timid by nature and would not dare to be alone with Hera. Jonah also ruled out Hestia at that moment.
It seemed that it should either be the god of fire, the goddess of agriculture, or the messenger of the gods.
Jonah nodded. The three of them were weaker than him. As long as he was careful, he would not be discovered by them.
Jonah quickly headed towards the temple.
Soon, he saw the full view of Hera’s temple. Hermes was standing beside the temple, and Jonah saw the scene of him overlooking the scenery.
Was it the god’s messenger, Hermes?
Jonah frowned.
Compared to Hermes, Jonah was more willing to face the god of fire, Hephaestus, or the goddess of agriculture, Demeter.
After all, in terms of speed and range of divine sense, Hermes was second, and even Zeus did not dare to say that he was first.
It seemed that Hermes had come prepared.
Could it be that he had been discovered again?
Jonah thought to himself. Soon, this thought was rejected by him.
After all, if he had really been discovered, Zeus would have brought people to question him directly. There was no need to set a trap to lure him out.
But what could he do to break through Hermes’s defensive line?
This made Jonah a little troubled.
He managed to find the weakness of the machines in Athena’s Temple, where he could turn into seawater to avoid the detection of the machines.
But against Hermes, he did not have the slightest chance to be at an advantage.
Jonah stayed where he was, frantically thinking of the best way to deal with the current situation.
If he really forced his way in, not only would he have to face Hera and Hermes’s joint attack, he would also attract Zeus’s attention.
In that case, he might not even be able to reach Hera’s chest to check-in, let alone escape.
Just as Jonah was in trouble, Hermes’s muttering in the distance caught Jonah’s attention.
“I wonder why Lord Ananke hasn’t contacted me recently…”
“Could it be that something has happened over there?”
Hermes’s eyes were filled with worry. He looked at the horizon in the distance and muttered to himself.
Ananke?
Wasn’t that the goddess of fate, who was even more terrifying than the twelve Titans?
Jonah was very shocked when he heard this name.
Hermes, who was ranked at the bottom of the twelve Olympians, was actually connected to the goddess of fate, Ananke.
It seemed that in the divine realm, there were all sorts of complicated hidden powers.
Although Jonah was astonished, he quickly used the information in front of him to find a way to break through to the Hera Temple.
Light flickered on Jonah’s right hand, and a gemstone appeared.
This was a treasure that had originally belonged to Poseidon.
However, its grade wasn’t high. It only looked like a regular god’s treasure.
This was a gift given to Poseidon by the mermaid princess of the sea after she had sex with Poseidon.
This small gemstone was like a tape recorder, it is capable of storing Jonah’s voice.
After slowly pouring divine power into it, Jonah said something to the gemstone, then threw it into the distance!
Whoosh!
The speed was extremely fast, cutting through the sky like a meteor!
Jonah’s processed voice sounded in the Olympus Mountains.
“The goddess of fate, Ananke!”
“The goddess of fate, Ananke!”
“The goddess of fate, Ananke!”
Hearing the voice that suddenly appeared, Hermes was shocked, and he could no longer maintain a calm smile.
Looking at the voice in the distance, Hermes could not help but swallow his saliva.
What was going on? Why did the name of the goddess of fate, Ananke, suddenly ring in the world?
Moreover, he had just finished worrying about her!
Something seemed fishy. Hermes frowned and turned into a stream of light that flew in the direction of the voice!
The terrifying name of the goddess of fate, Ananke, had long disappeared in everyone’s memories along with the passage of time.
Hermes would not allow the people in the divine realm to recall the existence of the goddess of fate, Ananke, before his plan succeeded!
In almost an instant, Hermes came to the side of the gem.
“What is this thing?”
Hermes was about to grab the gem, but when he carefully observed it, Jonah’s divine power hidden in it suddenly exploded!
Boom!
It turned into a sky full of star dust!
Hermes was stunned in mid-air for a moment. He could not figure out what had happened.
At this moment, a blue figure turned into a stream of light and rushed into Hera’s temple.
Jonah’s eyes lit up when he saw that he had broken through Hermes’s guards.
Although there were a few more barriers set up by Zeus, they were nothing compared to Hermes, who had a powerful divine sense.
