Chapter 454: Chapter 10: The Calamity Enchantress Pandora! (6.1k)_2
Poseidon explained the advantages and disadvantages of revealing his weaknesses, then extended an olive branch.
“So, during these three hundred years, if you agree to serve me and allow me to ascend to the throne of the Divine King and take control of all Olympus, then I can clear the stigma you once bore, grant you this ocean, and give you the paradise to live and the power to walk in the sunlight!”
The Metal Core was silent for a long time, as if it were deep in thought, before eventually emitting a sound in response.
“Agreement accepted. I hope you will keep your promise…”
“Of course!”
Poseidon nodded happily, waiting for his newly recruited subordinates to fall into his hands.
“Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!”
The Metal Core [Chaos] vibrated with a buzzing sound, and the sky full of starlight transformed into three beams of light, pouring into three mechanical divine bodies displayed in the corridor.
Moments later, three metallic giants, each a hundred meters tall, turned into pools of mercury-like liquid, and under the activation of runes sketched out human contours and faces, representing two males and one female.
The males stood on either side, one with blue hair and red eyes, dressed in Golden Armor, having brown skin and explosive muscles, handsome in appearance and fierce in aura, like an unsheathed sabre; the other with red hair and golden eyes, powerfully built arms, and an ancient look, radiating a hot aura;
The female in the center also had red hair and golden eyes, her features and figure embodying ultimate beauty, seemingly a pair with the similarly colored male.
Moreover, the three of them each had a pair of wings on their backs, as if ready to take flight.
“[Mechanical God · Ares], [Mechanical God · Hephaestus], [Mechanical God · Aphrodite], from now on follow the true god Poseidon’s orders, enact his will, and seek the power for our survival!”
A solemn voice came from the trembling Metal Core, echoing through the Star Sea.
Instantly, the two men and one woman, imbued with divine aura, slowly opened their eyes, took steps forward, and knelt before the Metal Core in the starlight.
“As you command, Father God!”@@novelbin@@
The Bronze Giant race viewed their own mechanisms as divine authority, revered their most outstanding individuals as deities, established personalities for them, compiled myths, and gave them new meaning to their existence.
Then, through battle, they collected and devoured the divinity of some weaker indigenous deities at the time, continuously perfecting and evolving themselves, and thus the machines became Mechanical Gods.
And their existence corresponded one by one to the mythology and characteristics of the Olympus deities.
[Mechanical God · Ares] possessed exceptional combat and destructive capabilities, designed for close-range annihilation;
[Mechanical God · Hephaestus] had the skill to shape metal, granting certain directional enhancements to the metal, designed for the craftsman forging model;
[Mechanical God · Aphrodite] was skilled in infiltration and disguise, designed for information intelligence attack models.
To facilitate their activities, they also once mimicked the gods’ images to create similar intellectual entities for themselves.
Clearly, the two men and one woman before us were disguises they had woven for themselves.
Watching his three newly recruited subordinates, bearing the names of false gods and kneeling before him, Poseidon’s heart swelled with gratification, as if he had already ascended to the throne of the Divine King and was enjoying the worship of the Olympus gods.

Meanwhile, in Olympus, Great Temple.
“Bang!”
Zeus, sitting on his throne, slammed his fist on the armrest, scolding his daughter who had humiliated him.
“You’re good for nothing but trouble! Who told you to act on your own?!”
“I-I was just trying to defend your honor.”
Eris shrank back, her face full of grievance.
Looking at the empty Great Temple and Eris’s pitiful appearance, the Zeus who wanted to scold felt suddenly disheartened.
Almost everyone had left Olympus, and he had few subordinates he could use.
If he adopted a harsher approach, he might not even be able to retain the few subordinates he had left.
Eventually, Zeus suppressed his anger, and reluctantly waved his hand.
“It’s done; let it be. Don’t act impulsively without my command next time. You’re also badly hurt, go and rest well for a while.”
“Yes, Father God!”
Seeing that she had luckily avoided punishment, Eris was overjoyed, quickly agreeing and then hurriedly flapping her somewhat leaking wings, fleeing the Great Temple like escaping for her life.
Although she was very thankful that the Father God had offered her a helping hand at the crucial moment, the atmosphere around that Father God and in the temple was too oppressive.
If given a choice, it was best to slip away first.
Watching his subordinate, who he had gone to great lengths to pull out from under Athena’s control, run away without a second thought just after being scolded, Zeus looked even more displeased.
In the future, he could hardly count on such a worthless being.
Forget it, he hadn’t really planned on relying on this kind of material.
After a good deal of mental adjustment, Zeus managed to calm the furious beating of his heart. He rubbed his somewhat sore temples, and his Divine Staff tapped against the ground.
A beam of starlight fell from the sky into the Great Temple, transforming into a young man clad in Golden Armor, with purple short hair and golden eyes, exuding a solemn and heroic demeanor.
As his consciousness returned, the young man raised his hand to his chest and half-kneeled towards the figure on the throne.
“Father God, what are your orders for summoning me?”
Observing the young man’s humble demeanor, Zeus nodded in satisfaction, his expression solemn.
“Perseus, although you have completed great deeds in the human world and returned to the Celestial Realm, your brother, your Blood Descendant — Hercules, is still lost in suffering, unaware of his mission. Therefore, I want you to be his mentor, to guide him on the path he should take, and to reassemble [the Glory of the Gods]!”
