The Greece Antagonist-Chapter 723 - 135 Know Me, Blame Me, Its Only The Iliad

Chapter 723: Chapter 135: Know Me, Blame Me, It’s Only The Iliad Chapter 723: Chapter 135: Know Me, Blame Me, It’s Only The Iliad After a brief struggle, Luo En had a thought and found some relief.

Fate was not a straight and unchanging line but a long river with undulating waves, the spray containing countless possibilities.

And from the moment he had chosen to unite with Thetis, Achilles’ original fate had long been altered beyond recognition.

Since even his biological father was completely different, it was hardly surprising that his gender had changed.

Moreover, in the original legend, Thetis, fearing that if she bore a son, the curse of fate would lead him to a violent death, had not only magically endowed her child with an undying body but also entrusted him to Lycormades, the King of Skyros Island, where Achilles grew up disguised as a girl.

It wasn’t until the outbreak of the Trojan War that Odysseus, who had come to deliver an oracle using trickery, identified Achilles among a group of girls, leading this Child of Fate step by step toward death.

Perhaps, Achilles changing from a boy to a girl and avoiding the curse in the line of the Divine King was exactly the future Thetis had most desired.

...

In another dimension, an Amazon girl named “Diana,” favored by fate and the gods since birth,

received immortality from Demeter; wisdom and courage from Wisdom Goddess Athena; the heart of a huntress and the ability to communicate with animals from Hunting Goddess Artemis; beauty and love from the Goddess of Love and Beauty, Aphrodite; and the Sacred Flame of truth from the Goddess of the Hearth, Hestia…

Thus, she was described as beautiful as Aphrodite, as intelligent as Athena, more agile than the Divine Envoy Hermes, stronger than Hercules, the Son of Zeus, possessing infinite potential!

So, wasn’t “Diana” also another possibility for “Achilles”?

Thinking this, Luo En gave his equally stunned daughter a knowing smile:

“Diana, you might as well keep this name; it’s been your habit for so many years on Paradise Island, and it wouldn’t be so easy to change. Besides, Thetis and I may be your biological parents, but it was Hippolyta who raised you into adulthood. She too is your mother, and there’s no need to distinguish between them in terms of importance.”

Diana, struggling with her identity, brightened at this and nodded vigorously, looking at Luo En with gratitude, her heart gradually warming to this father she had never met before.

It had to be said, her father was truly understanding, and every word and action of his was filled with charisma.

No wonder her foster mother, Hippolyta, had not only willingly raised his daughter but also remained devoted to him to this day, often praising his divine name and great deeds.

“So, why did you call us here? What urgent matter do you have?”

Diana asked solemnly, using respectful language unconsciously.

Luo En snapped back to reality, gathered his wandering thoughts, and seriously looked to the daughter he had just acknowledged:

“Together, let’s solve the mystery that shrouds all of Greece, find the disappeared gods, and your mother, Thetis.”

“Are they all still alive?”

Surprise flashed across Diana’s face upon hearing this.

Indeed, the Amazon Tribe had never ceased searching for the gods and Divine Blood Heroes for centuries, yet they had always come up empty-handed.

As time went on, Diana couldn’t help but doubt whether the disappeared gods and heroes were indeed still existing in this world.

“They are likely alive.”

Luo En spoke gravely, providing the basis for his judgment.

“If all the gods and heroes had been annihilated, the Divine King of Olympus would no longer be restrained. Given his nature, he would have definitely descended personally by now to reshape the faith of the Greek cities, or simply destroy humanity once again, rather than using mild tactics like stirring conflicts, diseases, misfortunes, and removing the Divine Blood Heroes that refuse allegiance.

Moreover, the disappearance of the gods seems to be a choice they made themselves; they didn’t forget to calmly make some arrangements on the eve of their departure.

So, I think they must have sensed some unavoidable danger and chose to retreat as an advance, secretly waiting for a turning point.”

Everyone listened carefully, and the previously somber eyes gradually radiated light.

Yes! From all indications, the situation of the gods and heroes might not be as dire as people thought; they still retained at least some strength that Zeus was wary of.

Just as everyone was uplifted by this good news, a low voice once again cooled the atmosphere in the temple.

“They might be alive, but their circumstances are probably not so favorable.”

Seeing everyone looking towards her, Diana shared her view.

“The premise of retreating to advance is being able to turn a passive situation into an active one, always having a chance to strike back, not cutting off all contact with the outside world and disappearing for centuries, waiting for a nebulous possibility.”

Luo En looked surprisingly at this daughter, who not only possessed outstanding martial abilities but seemingly also inherited that intelligence and nodded in approval.

“You’re right; if things were truly under control, based on what I know of them, War God Mountain absolutely would not have abandoned Helen and sent you to Paradise Island to be secretly raised by Hippolyta.”

“Unless…”

Diana pursed her lips, her eyes flickering with complexity.

“…the place they went to was far more dangerous than the mortal world at that time, and even they themselves were not sure of their success.”
