Waters of Hades! Heart of the Ocean!
To be blunt, these two treasures provide only a slight enhancement in background, which Hades and Poseidon, at their current levels, do not particularly value. After all, the increase is not substantial.
Among these three treasures, the Waters of Hades can enhance the essence of the underworld when bathed in, while the Heart of the Ocean can amplify the essence of the sea realm when consumed. While both are indeed important, Hades and Poseidon have advanced significantly beyond the need for such enhancements. Hades has already become a Primordial God, and Poseidon, needless to say, has transformed into a formidable Evil God.
In this context, the significance of these two treasures diminishes. However, the Sky Gate is an entirely different matter. The Sky Gate does not originate from Hades or Poseidon; its source lies with the original Uranus. This is an immensely powerful artifact that even Cronus failed to acquire, ultimately falling into Zeus's possession. Because of this, the Sky Gate is of great importance.
"Hmm"
After contemplating this, Bell's expression shifted. He understood the true nature of the Waters of the Underworld and the Heart of the Ocean. He recognized that if the Sky Gate were brought into play, it would certainly attract the attention of his uncles and cousins.
Bell was aware that his uncles relished the spectacle, but it didn't mean they would ignore such significant artifacts. On the contrary, if they encountered each other, it would make for an even more exciting scenario. What would be the outcome of such an encounter?
At this moment, the answer was all but certain.
Bell maintained a calm demeanor but spoke earnestly: "Typhon, what is your objective? How do you plan to cooperate with us?"
Clearly, with the Sky Gate in Zeus's possession, and now that Bell had learned of this, he understood that many things had fundamentally changed. If that were the case, they needed to discuss the next steps.
"Hehehe"
Typhon responded indifferently, "Alliance or cooperation, Bell, Athena. I require your assistance to steer this divine conflict into different territories. Let us observe who will remain. Hades has transcended the confines of this game, and only the five of us remain ensnared."
The expressions of Bell and Athena remained composed. They understood that Typhon was correct; Hades had surpassed the limitations imposed on them. In essence, Hades was no longer someone they could easily control.
The root of this situation was clear. It was a tragic game called God King, and the inevitable result was straightforward.
After all, everyone must be prepared for anything.
Typhon watched as Bell and Athena departed, murmuring to himself, "Victory and results! Though I'm uncertain what they will be, I'm only a step away. Just a little more time is needed."
He felt the presence of the others, but the timing wasn't right. He could not enter the sea realm at will; he needed to consume Phorcys first.
Typhon's eyes shimmered with resolve. Once he devoured Phorcys, he would truly step into the realm of the Primordial Gods, becoming a player at the divine table.
Otherwise...
Everything would be meaningless. This reality weighed heavily on Typhon; he had never allowed himself to be careless. From start to finish, he understood that he could not afford to relax.
"Everything! Everything!"
He believed that only this moment remained. Once it passed, everything would become straightforward.
"Next..."
Typhon murmured, "Let me see what unfolds next."
As he withdrew his gaze, he knew he had prepared for everything. If he failed again, there would be nothing he could do; he had genuinely done all he could.
But, honestly...
Typhon's situation was quite unique. He was born of the world, a product of Gaia's deep-seated animosity. In essence, he was paving the way for Bell, yet Typhon sought to resist this fate. Though it was challenging to carve out his own path, opportunities still existed, even if slim. Typhon was determined to prepare for every possible scenario; failure was simply unacceptable.
"Try it!"
"Perhaps!"
"There is only one chance, but if it succeeds, it will be enough. If it fails..."
He shook his head silently, acknowledging that if he failed, he would have to admit it completely. The opportunity was right before him, and he had a chance at success.
From the dawn of the world until now, mythology has existed through the ages. The god kings emerged in four distinct waves: Uranus, Cronus, Hades, Poseidon, and Zeus, followed by Athena.
Indeed, these six god kings were meant to exist. Ordinarily, Bell should not have been born; Zeus would not have allowed it. However, as time flowed, Bell still came into existence, and the reasons for this are clear.
There are numerous factors at play. The transformations of Hades and Poseidon, along with Poseidon's path to becoming an Evil God, contributed to the birth of Bell and the subsequent changes in the world, leading to Typhon's emergence.
Typhon, originally an ultimate Titan god, received tremendous support from Gaia to combat Zeus. The blessings and gifts from the Primordial Gods, Gaia and Tartarus, elevated Typhon from a Titan main god to the supreme God King.
That's right! Typhon became a god king on par with Bell and Athena, but he was a man-made god king. Despite possessing the qualifications of a god king, he lacked the true essence of one.
