“Damn, I had a feeling that King Sisyphus was about to fall on hard times! This might really be true!”

“If all else fails, just take another look.” Qin Muye would never give up the Divine Lamp unless it was truly useless to him.

“Fairy tales mixed with mythologies are not at all fairy tale-like…”

“No one came looking for you, Prince Qin,” a servant said respectfully. This was a direct order from Sisyphus himself, naturally to be handled with care. Just by virtue of his princely status alone, he was not someone just anyone could handle.

“In addition, the great King Sisyphus has also provided you, Prince Qin, with a hundred guards, all of whom are the strongest warriors of Corinth Kingdom, brave enough to charge even at a Chimera,” said a nobleman of the court as a hundred soldiers in armor, equipped with spears and shields, stepped forward.

“Hmm, good,” Qin Muye was sure that Aladdin hadn’t returned yet, but then again, Aladdin couldn’t have returned so quickly; even if he were fast, it would take about three days.

“A gift? King Sisyphus is truly too kind. I don’t really have anything to gift in return,” Qin Muye was also startled; he hadn’t expected Sisyphus to send him a gift. Could it be because he had enjoyed their drink together yesterday?

“You may not know, our Queen Moluo Po is also one of the gods, one of the seven Companion Star Gods of the Hunting Goddess Artemis among the twelve main gods. She governs the five stars of Subaru and is the daughter of the Sea Goddess Thetis and the Ocean God Oceanus.”

“Prince Qin, His Majesty has arranged some gifts for you, and I ask that you please review them,” the servant said cautiously.

“Give my thanks to King Sisyphus. I hadn’t expected that a prince of Corinth would be a Divine, which truly flatters me,” Qin Muye said as he gently rubbed the Ocean Pearl that he had received.

“This is an Ocean Pearl, sculpted personally by Prince Glaucus of the Ocean. Just by wearing this pearl, the ocean will never harm you,” said the nobleman holding the pearl.

“Let’s go, take me to see them.”

“Did anyone come looking for me yesterday?” Qin Muye asked during a break in his ablutions.

Aladdin was no doubt smart but quite naive as well, just a child, not some important figure.

After all, it’s only a civilization akin to Ancient Greece; however magnificent, how much more can it be? If it were a Magic Civilization, it might have impressed Qin Muye, but as for this world, the magic is poor, the true power lies with the divine forces, and bloodline is the greatest monopoly…Well, actually, the monopoly isn’t that extensive.

Moreover, this True God can listen to him like three dogs in a matchbox.

Unless it were a real stroke of bad luck.

For him, a True God specimen could bring about a qualitative transformation.

Luckily, there’s still Aladdin. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.

He soon saw the so-called gifts; dozens of boxes filled with gold, silver, jewels, ivory carvings, and other rare items, but Qin Muye didn’t show much interest, as these things were basically of no use to him.

Say it was a Mythical Species; then they might truly hold a monopoly, but in the mythology of Ancient Greece, as long as one’s lucky at birth, there is not a small chance of being of Divine Bloodline.

True value was indeed low, but not any good items, only a carving of a male with the tail of a fish.

Even having Zeus’s bloodline would need substantial assistance; it wouldn’t be right to just ask Qin Muye for help, would it?

Even training one up would certainly not have been cheap; to simply give it away was also quite generous indeed.

It might seem like Zeus was ruling now, but Gaia and her offspring had quietly become a part of this whole world now.

That’s not right either; it’s common for a leader to bring a mistress to drink, but to bring the official wife?

No wonder Aladdin is called the Noble Belief; apparently, this generation is the remnants of the former dynasty’s nest.

No wonder Prince Glaukus directly became the Ocean God, turns out his grandparents were the Sea God and both were among the Twelve Titan Divines.

Other than that, besides these seven Companion Star Gods of the Hunting Goddess, Thetis also gave birth to three thousand Ocean Goddesses and was the source of all rivers.

Qin Muye was arranged in a splendid room, apparently meant to entertain foreign dignitaries, but in Qin Muye’s eyes, it was merely so-so.

Qin Muye slowly woke up; he wasn’t actually drunk, and he knew Sisyphus wasn’t drunk either. It was just a way for each of them to step down gracefully.

Qin Muye squinted his eyes, staring at the pearl.

Qin Muye smiled, “I’ll accept King Sisyphus’s kind gesture and take this pearl, but there’s no need for the gold, silver, jewels, and these warriors. As someone who dares to venture out alone, I naturally have sufficient strength.”

Qin Muye suddenly realized that the former princess had declared herself king here, and the former Imperial grandson had even joined the Ocean God system. Even Zeus, not to mention Poseidon, would probably be troubled by this.

Qin Muye felt he was taking the biggest risk of his life by doing this. He knew he had already intercepted once before.

If this place were not about to become a land of contention, Qin Muye would have definitely thought about setting up a laboratory here and finding a way to abduct Queen Moluo Po.

Even his grandmother, the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia, seemed restless. He remembered that Typhon would attack Mount Olympus. He didn’t know the details, but he knew Zeus was defeated miserably, seemingly having his sinews picked apart.

The attendant led the way up front, and Qin Muye followed behind.

He certainly held a position of great power and authority.

So there must be some misunderstanding here, otherwise, it wouldn’t make sense for them to be gifting him.

He didn’t trust others, especially since he was a visitor from an Exotic Realm, and he didn’t quite mesh with the locals here.

He himself hadn’t even dealt with a kingdom yet, let alone have the time to help others.

Thetis was Oceanus’s sister and wife, the old tradition, and above her was the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia.

Listening to the introductions by the court nobles, Qin Muye had become numb; it seemed everyone here had such peculiar backgrounds.

If he was really lucky and born directly into a monster womb, he’d be straight in a Divine lineage. He wouldn’t need to worry too much then; he could just call Typhon “grandfather,” and there would definitely be no problem.

You see, Queen Moluo Po is of pure blood, both her parents being one of the twelve Titans. Going up further, her grandfather is the first Divine King Uranos, and her grandmother is the Earth Mother Goddess Gaia. If used correctly, Qin Muye could indeed extract the bloodline of Chaos Chaos.

That means this was his closest shortcut opportunity.

It’s no wonder he had left such a powerful weapon for Aladdin, to ensure that when taking over the Corinth Kingdom in the future, he could do so more smoothly. With a True God Servant by his side, these people would have to be completely submissive unless they wanted to tear face. If they did dare, even Zeus would probably die laughing.

Fortunate that these myths of ancient Greek gods hadn’t been exaggerated beyond measure, which gave Qin Muye an opportunity.

When the attendant on the side woke, he hurried over to tend to him. Qin Muye casually waved his hand, signaling it was not necessary, and the attendants dared not make another move.

Therefore, he was adamant on getting it. Of course, there were other situations, like limiting its user to Aladdin alone, making it unusable by others—such a possibility was not out of the question.

In the original story, Aladdin had the Divine Lamp, and many things went remarkably smooth for him. But without the help of the Divine Lamp, even just the intrigue alone could destroy Aladdin.

After a stern refusal, the court nobles still somewhat embarrassedly took the gold, silver, jewels, and warriors back.

The gift was indeed generous, the gold and silver were secondary, but those one hundred warriors were true warriors, strong, at least at the fourth Rank, favored by the Divine. They were the direct lineage of Queen Moluo Po and probably the trump card of the Corinth Kingdom.

The distance was not short, but clearly, Aladdin didn’t receive the same treatment as Hercules, the god of great strength.

The most precious in this bunch was this Ocean Pearl, other mundane items were too troublesome to carry, even though Sisyphus provided a bodyguard service, but he didn’t need it.

This area might be the private land of the Ocean God Oceanus, otherwise, he couldn’t have encountered his son, daughter, and son-in-law one after another.

Currently, though, the difficulty seemed significant. Tian Qi might be able to defeat Moluo Po or even capture her, but escaping afterward would be an issue.

But if the Divine Lamp was taken by him, what would Aladdin do? He certainly didn’t have the ability to marry a princess and reach the peak of life.

Zeus, everyone who heard the name knew, was the sort of person whose wrongdoings couldn’t be washed away.
