Eryx was on the verge of a breakdown.
What on earth was going on?
Was there really someone looking to voluntarily enter the Heavenly Dungeon in Zone 28?
No, this must be deliberate! This girl must be trying to provoke him into making a mistake so that Poseidon could find an excuse to trouble him…
It had to be!
Recently, St. Benedict fell, and Jesus dissipated His divine power, withdrawing from the God’s Kingdom, with rumors linking both to Poseidon.
Clearly, Poseidon was preparing to make moves against various powers within the Divine Realm.
Rumors had it that St. Benedict died by the Trident, and hadn’t this William just produced a Trident?
It was obviously a threat.
Previously, there had been no mention of these two individuals in the Palace of the Sea God.
Now, out of nowhere, and out of all four gates of the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods, they chose to enter through the one he guarded, and then deliberately provoked him… 𝘪𝘳.𝒸𝑜𝑚
After piecing these thoughts together, Eryx naturally could not consider sending Alice into the Heavenly Dungeon.
“Big guy, you can’t go back on your word!” Alice stood in front of Eryx and said, “Aren’t you going to take me to the Heavenly Dungeon?”
Eryx, who was quite refined, casually said to the soldiers of the Celestial Legion of Olympus behind him, “As you can see, I have not stopped the two disciples of Poseidon from passing.”
With that, he simply stood still, not moving an inch.
The two soldiers of the Celestial Legion of Olympus behind him, hearing this, mimicked his behavior, staring blankly and remaining silent.
Poseidon’s confidants rarely held positions within the Divine Alliance. Given Poseidon’s advocacy for treating everyone equally, many of his confidants were known to be eccentric yet incredibly powerful. Crossing them was not a wise move.
After all, it was just guarding a gate. It wasn’t worth offending them.
Alice stared at Eryx for a long while, but he remained as still as a statue, not moving an inch.
William, having figured out Eryx’s thoughts, didn’t dawdle any further and said to Alice, “Let’s go.”
Reluctantly giving up, Alice followed William directly into the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods.
Eryx didn’t even ask Alice to show her identity token again.
He now dared not provoke this young lady any further. Fighting was out of the question, killing even more so. Could he really lock her up in the Heavenly Dungeon?
Staying silent was the right choice,simply ignoring her was better than anything else.
Without taking action, Alice, even as a disciple of Poseidon, couldn’t possibly attack him right at the entrance of the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods.
After the two entered the Sanctuary, Eryx and the soldiers of the Celestial Legion of Olympus behind him breathed a sigh of relief.
Once inside, Alice walked along the streets of the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods, looking around with her hands behind her back.
Today, Alice was wearing a beautiful dress made for her by William, and William was clad in a white robe, blending harmoniously with the people and scenery around them.
“William, you look really good in that outfit,” Alice said as she walked on the street, glancing at William with admiration, nearly becoming crush-addicted.
Words like “gracefully elegant” or “handsomely carefree” were insufficient to describe William.
His presence, akin to a deity descending to the earth, was mesmerizing.
William responded, “You should think about how we’re going to get in.” He was also looking around.
He planned to live in the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods for a while.
After all, he hadn’t lived in the Divine Realm for many years, and now, everything felt refreshingly new.
The Divine Realm hadn’t developed technology as such, but many tasks achievable through technology on Earth could be done with Divine Power here.
Above the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods, a thousand feet in the air, were patrolling soldiers of the Celestial Legion of Olympus. These soldiers were not weak and could monitor all movements within the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods.
Even the streets, down to each paving stone, were embedded with various magic circles.
Countless runes formed a large AuraField, enabling the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods to voraciously absorb energy from the Divine Realm.
Additionally, there are various defensive magic circles and space-folding magic circles.
On the street, the shops on either side may appear small, but once inside, you’ll find they’re much more spacious than expected.
“Let’s eat first!” William finally spotted the place he was looking for.
Abode of the God of Cooking!
The God of Cooking of the Divine Alliance is Zeus’s personal chef, but the God of Cooking also has disciples who have opened their own establishments in the central Zone 36.
After entering the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods, Alice could immediately feel the surrounding energy become incredibly abundant. Thanks to the secret techniques taught by William, even walking would automatically absorb energy.
Before even reaching the end of the street, she felt herself breaking through to a higher level.
Is this the legendary Divine Realm?
“Eat? Sure!” Alice’s eyes lit up. Although she didn’t feel hungry, as a foodie, food wasn’t just for satisfying hunger.
“Do you have money?” William glanced at her.
Alice frowned, pulling out her wallet, “Can I use dollars?”
William knocked her on the head hard: “Are you stupid?”
Alice, feeling wronged and touching her head in pain, grimaced: “I told you not to knock anymore, if you keep doing it I’ll really become dumb.”
Without further ado, knowing she was silly enough, he led Alice towards the Abode of the God of Cooking. As he walked in, Alice stood outside, realizing that even the door of the shop was protected by a magic circle.
William ignored the magic circle and went in, but Alice couldn’t.
A servant at the entrance looked at William and Alice with confusion and approached, saying, “Could you please hand over your reservation token?”
Reservation token?
William glanced at the reservation token in the servant’s hand, then, after a quick look at the people inside, pointed to a burly man in the corner and said, “I’m a friend of that man; I don’t have a reservation token.”
The servant was full of doubts. Normally, without a reservation token, one could not enter through this door.
And the man William pointed out was none other than the Sun God Apollo. He clearly remembered that Apollo had reserved two dishes and a jug of wine but had only requested one reservation token from the Abode of the God of Cooking.
Well, if someone has the ability to come in directly, they’re obviously a deity beyond his jurisdiction.
The servant escorted William and Alice to Apollo’s table, and Apollo noticed William.
At that moment, Apollo was taken aback and exclaimed, “Brother-in-law,William?”
Alice was even more dumbfounded upon hearing this address.
Brother-in-law?!
What was going on?
Could it be that William had other romantic involvements in the Divine Realm?
“Apollo, it’s been a long time. I didn’t expect to see you here,” William said.
Apollo, excitedly, said, “William, where have you been all these years? I’ve searched the entire Divine Realm and couldn’t find any news of you.”
William replied, “I’ve been in the Prime World.”
Apollo was shocked, “So, you didn’t die back then?”
William remained silent, and Apollo laughed, “William, your strength is truly remarkable. Even high-ranking god-kings like Zeus and Poseidon fell, but you survived! We must drink to our hearts’ content today, not stopping until we’re thoroughly drunk!”
