Zeus does not want to be the king of gods in Greece

"The first trial you arranged for her seems to be... Nemea."

This is not the first time Zeus has heard this name. Back then, he was the first monster to surrender to Mount Olympus. Compared with his sister Hydra, Hydra, it can be said to be a completely opposite monster.

Elder brother Nemea is a lion during the day and a human being at night, and because of this reason, he is closer to human beings, even though this will make him more demonic, but he has not killed anyone for so many years.

The younger sister, Hydra, is a monster through and through. She has no affection for humans. Not only does she have a strong immortality, she will never die unless she kills nine of her heads in one go, and her poisonous blood is the most difficult to deal with in Greece. poison.

Of course, what is even more surprising is that these two guys with completely opposite personalities turned out to be a pair of Greek orthopedic surgeons, which even Zeus, who has seen a lot of wind and waves, was amazed at.

"He has been helping human beings eliminate the strong and help the weak all these years, but he has been in contact with human beings for so long, and the devil in his body is also unfathomable. It can be said that he is the most difficult one among Typhon's "children" today."

Hera recalled that in order to reduce the pollution from the demonic nature, Nemea deliberately forced the demonic nature onto the fur, which also made him have a defense that was difficult to break through.

Hercules is going to suffer a lot.

......

"It's a really heavy fist, if it wasn't for me, I would have died a long time ago."

The blond boy got up from the ground, just now Hercules punched him to pieces, if such a fist fell on someone else, it would basically end up exploding to death.

"Aren't you going to die like this?"

Hercules was obviously more surprised than the blond boy. Since the moment he fought this guy, he was amazed at the blond boy's defensive power. Although the opponent looked disheveled, he was actually not injured at all.

On the contrary, the sword in the opponent's hand is extremely sharp, and if it is cut by Hercules, it will also bleed.

The situation stalemate.

"It's getting late, so let's fight again next time."

The blond boy looked at the dim sky in the east, and felt that he was tired from fighting all night, so he was reluctant to fight again.

"Wait, we haven't decided the winner yet."

"I can't tell the difference. You won't be able to hurt me but you will be hurt by me. If you continue to fight, no matter what you think, it will be my victory. So stop here. If you still want to fight, then come here again tomorrow."

The sun was about to come out, the blond boy didn't want to delay any longer, he hurried into the woods and soon disappeared.

"Nimea, Hera said that the daytime is a monster and the night is a special monster for humans."

Hercules looked at the blond boy who quickly disappeared without a trace. Although he had guessed before, it was only after the blond boy left in such a hurry that he made a judgment.

"As a monster, why do you want to help humans?"

Hercules didn't understand that the decisiveness shown by Nemea last night in order to save people was not a lie, and he even said a few words to himself, a desperate guy.

It's not that different from humans at all.

Is it different from humans?

Although I don't know what Hercules thought, but the blond boy running in the woods didn't think so.

As the sun rose, the body of the blond boy gradually prostrated himself on the ground, before turning into a proud lion.

"Humans will admire the heroic boy who sees injustice, but will not appreciate the monster who saved himself from danger."

Nemea was the first to surrender to Mount Olympus. On the one hand, the reason for consideration is that the gods are powerful now, and even the original Gorgon was quickly eliminated, and instead became a stepping stone for Perseus.

Now these monsters have not been cleared, but it is because it is not yet a climate, and the gods are too lazy to take care of them, so they might as well hand them over to the so-called "heroes".

But it's a pity that a monster that is so powerful as Nemea is no longer something ordinary people can deal with. As his demonic nature increases, it is basically a certainty that he will be eliminated by the gods in the end.

Another reason is that he is different from other monsters. Since he can turn into a human at night, he has more sympathy for humans, and even likes mixing with humans.

If he hadn't been in contact with humans for too long to accelerate the accumulation of magic, he would not have come to live in such a remote place.

"Nimea, are you going to play the 'hero' game with those humans again at night?"

Nemea came to the seashore at the other end of the forest. Following a female voice, a nine-headed monster broke through the sea. It was Hydra, the hydra that everyone in Greece is afraid of.

"It's not a game, but this time I met an interesting opponent."

"Adversary? No one can break through your defense, and you will meet an opponent?"

Hydera is curious, there are not many people who can be called opponents by Nemea, she is a little curious about who it is.

"Messenger of Hera, presumably the gods have noticed that the demonic nature in my body is about to erupt."

For his sister and wife, Nemea did not hide anything, but this also made Hydera angry.

"Nimia, are you crazy or stupid? Are you willing to give up your life for an illusory promise on Mount Olympus? You are too stupid."

Hydera is dissatisfied with her brother's "stupidity". In her opinion, even if the demonic nature in their bodies explodes and goes on the road of annihilation, it is just a kind of nature. When the gods come to kill them, it is just as normal as the end of human life.

Life is limited, so it is natural to enjoy it.

Nemea is willing to give up her life in order to get rid of the "demonic nature". Who knows if the gods on Mount Olympus will keep their promises.

It is really stupid to read other people's charity with one life only.

"Stupid? It does seem so to you, and I would think so if I were you."

Nemea smiled wryly, half human and half monster, he could neither be integrated into Typhon's "children" nor be accepted by human beings, this is the pain that Hydera, who is a pure monster, can't understand.

"But don't worry, not everyone can kill me, and I won't just come and kill anyone, but I hope you can promise me one thing, don't take revenge for me."

Nemea's words were exchanged for Hydera's silence.

The answer is already obvious.

"I may not die. If I can really be reborn like Napekasas, can't you hold back your anger?"

In recent years, Medusa has been active on the land of Greece as Pekkasas, and there are some speculations about her identity among the "children" of Typhon.

"It doesn't make sense, God will not make a special case for me, the difference between us is destined, so why should I suppress my anger."

Hydera's words are sincere, she will never suppress her anger for Nemea's request, and she hopes that her decisive attitude will make Nemea change his mind.

She understands that the reason why Nemea wants to seek death is because she is afraid that she will be controlled by Typhon's demonic nature and end up on the road of slaughtering humans. If this is the case, she will slaughter humans as soon as Nemea dies. Only in this way is it possible for Nemea Rat thrower.

It's a pity that her plan didn't take effect, and Nemea's silence also gave the answer.

"You don't come to see me anymore."

Hydera sank to the bottom of the sea, and it seemed that she would not appear again until Nemea changed her mind, but both of them could feel that this might be the last meeting.

......

"clang"

Nemea's sword was thrown into the air, and then was hit by Hercules with an axe. Although it still did not cause any damage, Nemea was indeed a little absent-minded.

"Absent-minded, are you underestimating me?"

Hercules thought about a way to break through Nemea's defense, even though he caught a huge flaw like Nemea's distraction just now, Heracles still didn't break through the opponent's defense.

"How could I have underestimated you, you just took a stone and made an ax with such power, what kind of monster are you?"

Nemea was lying on the ground looking at the starry sky without much fighting spirit, which made Hercules understand that tonight's battle was over.

"Why do you want to protect humans, obviously..."

"Isn't that necessary? You think so, don't you?"

Nemea stood up and looked at Hercules. Human beings asked him this question, gods asked him, monsters asked him, he asked himself this question, and finally he got the answer.

"I want to be a hero."

"Hero? You?"

Hercules looked at the blond boy in surprise. Although he never said his name, his identity was still obvious with his invulnerable body and the strange biological clock that only appeared at night.

"And Hercules, what is a hero to you?"

"A hero, that is a person who can do what he wants, and for this reason, a hero must have absolute strength."

Although there are countless self-proclaimed "heroes" in Greece today, in the eyes of Hercules, the only person who can truly be called a hero is Perseus.

That is the best synonym for a hero. While having absolute power, he also has unparalleled power. As long as the gods do not show up, then Perseus is a well-deserved god of Greece.

"That's just a simple strong man, and he can't be called a hero."

Nemea obviously disagreed with Hercules' statement.

"So what do you consider a hero? Someone who can beat you?"

"No, they are people who are willing to pay for the weak, take action when they see injustice, take justice as the criterion, and practice it all their lives."

Nemea understood that the reason why he wanted to be a hero was because he longed for the "divinity" hidden in the human heart, which the gods were eclipsed by.

That "divinity" is not proof of the blood of the gods, but another more noble and metaphysical existence.

"Why should the strong pay for the weak, what does injustice have to do with me, what is the conclusion of justice, and how difficult it is to practice it for a lifetime."

"If you can empathize with the weak and limit your own strength, you can be worthy of the strong. If you are clearly capable but allow injustice to happen, it is tantamount to an accomplice. The conclusion of justice lies in the hearts of the people. The reason why it is difficult to practice it all your life is But do real heroes fear difficulties?"

When Nemea said such words, Hercules seemed to have light in his eyes.

An existence that is obviously non-human but yearns for human beings and will help those in distress. In Hercules' view, such an existence is indeed more worthy of the title of hero than some self-proclaimed heroes.

But Hercules understood that Nemea had not fulfilled the requirements of a hero in his heart at all.

"I don't know."

"That's why you are not a real hero, and you still can't kill me."

"I'm just missing a weapon that I can take advantage of."

Hercules said unwillingly.

During these days of fighting, he has already figured out the fighting style of Nemea. If it is considered by pure combat skills, Hercules can kill Nemea, but he can't break through Nemea's defense. .

"Indeed, if you really have a magic weapon, then I will die. Why don't you find a weapon? I can wait for you here."

"unnecessary."

Hercules understood that fighting is fighting. If Nemea wanted to kill him, he could rely on this powerful defense to attack him day and night. In this way, Hercules could only end up exhausted and finally killed. kill.

But Nemea didn't do that, and since that's the case, Hercules didn't need to use off-court tricks to beat his opponent.

"Using the strength of others is not an act of the weak, even heroes have..."

Nemea stopped suddenly when he said that, cold sweat dripped down unstoppably while his face was suffering.

"what happened to you?"

"It's okay, let me take a rest, just take a rest."

Nemea turned his head away, as the "children" of Typhon with the highest demonic nature on the Greek land, the demonic nature in his body may erupt at any time, and in order to suppress this demonic nature that will erupt at any time, in order to suppress this demonic nature, he needs More energy and magic power to suppress the magic.

And now is the time for the demonic nature to repeatedly stimulate his will.

"Are you really okay?"

"It's okay, just let me rest now."

Nemea curled up under the tree beside him, not wanting to pay attention to Hercules, he wanted to put all his energy on suppressing the demonic nature.

"I'll come back tomorrow."

Hercules understood that even if Nemea was not in good condition, there would be no danger. After all, he had the most say on how strong that steel and iron frame was.

Nemea is the only one left in the forest. Heracles has left the forest. He understands that Nemea must avoid people's sight every time he wants to become a monster. Naturally, he doesn't like being seen. Hercules respects Nemea's will, which is his respect for the strong.

The pain caused by the burst of magic was quickly relieved with the rising of the sun.

Under the sun, Nemea slowly turned into a lion, and the incompatibility between the human body and the demon nature was improved, and Nemea took advantage of this time period to continue to oppress the magic power on the fur, so that He barely regained his sanity.

"I seem to be running out of time."

Nemea, who finally recovered, was panting heavily. He was already a lion at this time, and he felt that his fur had already contained enough demonic nature, and it could no longer be used as a container for storing demonic nature.

The time of destiny that belongs to Nemea is coming.

Want Hercules to kill him?

Nemea has been hesitating. In his opinion, even if he cannot become a hero, it is not unacceptable to become a stepping stone to a true hero.

But Hercules at this time is far from the hero in Nemea's heart.

The anxiety between life and death made him anxious, and he, who was half-human and half-beast, had no one to communicate with him after Hydera left.

The sun rose in the east and then set in the west, and Nemea spent the whole day in anxiety.

"Help me."

Human cries for help came from the forest, which attracted Nemea's attention.
