Gods, I am the ancient Greek god of joy

Chapter 15: Impending Death 5

After years of trading in fine wine, all the treasures he obtained turned into divine power to nourish the river. Now, the originally one-meter-wide stream has become a two-meter-wide river.

The river water was clear, revealing countless treasures under the riverbed. These treasures emitted an alluring glow, but it was estimated that they would have no effect on the Typhons.

He did not stop his actions. Although this river was protected by absolute laws and no one could cross it without his consent, the price of maintaining this river was his own divine power.

However, his own divine power was not that strong, and these second-generation direct descendants of Typhon were not just for show. It was only a matter of time before they crossed the river.

I only have ten minutes left to be awake. Now I am trapped by the barrier they have set. There is no way to escape. I can only see if all my assets can be used.

Typhon, who was approaching from a distance, was still cautious. They seemed to know him very well. Even if he walked slowly, he had to set up the barrier. All the plants and grasses that passed by were destroyed by the divine power, leaving him no loopholes to exploit.

Zagreus' eyes narrowed slightly, and he raised his hand into the air. Suddenly, a emerald green divine staff emitting a strong vitality appeared out of thin air.

This magic staff may look ordinary, but if you look closely you will find that it is covered with dense vines and ivy. Moreover, these vines seem to have their own consciousness, constantly twisting and stretching, appearing extremely agile.

With the appearance of the divine staff, Zagreus's entire temperament changed drastically. His originally immature face became extremely relaxed, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. His naturally curly red hair showed some fluorescent spots, and then an exquisite wreath woven from grape vines suddenly appeared.

What is displayed at this time is the most popular and well-known image of Zagreus as the god of wine in the mortal world.

The wreath on his head and the staff held in his hand are not just decorations, they are part of the power of the god of wine, and now they can enhance his combat power.

Zagros's strength is now at its peak. With the support of these divine objects, he can more or less play a role in dealing with the current crisis.

Moreover, he no longer cared whether the power of faith was clean or not. The image of the god of wine could absorb power faster. If there was no suppression in the realm of gods, he would directly become the son of Hades. In the underworld, he was a high-level god.

But now he was in urgent need of divine power. He used the true body of the god of wine to plunder 80% of his faith power in the mortal world, and gathered all of it into the godhood. He then left an oracle and asked believers to spread the message to other temples.

However, his oracle was shattered by Typhon as soon as it flew out. He then remembered that Hermes had left him a gold coin for emergency communication. As the god of roads, it could communicate with Hermes regardless of any environment.

Zagreus immediately found the gold coin and smashed it with his divine power. Suddenly, a wave of divine power belonging to Hermes flashed by, and the gold coin turned into his projection.

"Oh! Zagrous, you are still alive! Listen, time is urgent now. We have helped you lead away the most powerful gods Typhon. The rest can only be dealt with by yourself. You must delay time as much as possible. We will come to rescue you as soon as we deal with them!" As a result, Hermes was suddenly interrupted when he was about to say something, and the phantom disappeared directly.

Zagreus could only remain silent. Just now, the gold coin briefly opened the barrier outside. He had already felt the powerful fluctuations of divine power coming from the outside world. He knew that they were not having an easy time either. But the problem was that he was still just a child. What could he use to delay time now? ? ? ?

Looking at the three gods Typhon approaching him from a distance, Zagreus could only take off the wreath on his head without hesitation and quickly waved the staff in his hand. In an instant, the wreath was shattered and then turned into an endless torrent of divine power that poured into the outside world.

As he looked on with distressed eyes, countless green lights lit up from the periphery of the Elysee, and then countless climbing plants emerged from the ground. They seemed to have life, and with the Temple of Elysee as the core, they spread rapidly in all directions.

The Typhon gods just paused and ignored them. They had just broken the barrier outside the little Elysee, and then these vines appeared. Although they were just children's toys, they did slow down their speed. At this time, the people from Hell were also urging them to move forward, so they immediately pulled the barrier and continued to move closer.

When these vines spread to the feet of the god Typhon, they instantly became extremely thick, and the densely packed barbs on them climbed up along the calves of Typhon.

At the same time, the grape leaves representing the power of Dionysus began to stretch out, greedily absorbing the power from Typhon to increase their own strength.

These densely packed vines were like tough silk threads, which successfully slowed down the pace of the god Typhon.

Seeing that their actions were hindered, the three Typhon gods were not to be trifled with. They burst out dark magma from their bodies. In an instant, the vines curled up and dried up under the high temperature, breaking into pieces. The dripping magma also destroyed the divine power of Zagreus, and countless vines turned to ashes under the burning fire.

Looking at the gradually disappearing vines, Typhon showed a cruel smile. When they reached the Golden River, they suddenly stopped. It turned out that the golden light on the river surface attracted their attention, but then the light was shattered and the river water became transparent.

But they did not continue to get closer. They found that this river contained many laws. When they wanted to cross it, they were bound in place by an invisible force.

"Humph! You have a lot of things to protect yourself, little guy, but how many times can you use them?"

After saying this, the three Typhons tried to raise their feet again, but then they were sucked by the earth and could not move forward. However, the water flow in the river was also dropping rapidly. As the three Typhons kept raising their feet and stopping, they seemed to be standing still. However, when they saw that the river that trapped them had completely dried up, they laughed evilly and started moving again.

This time their actions were not blocked, and they were now approaching the gate of his temple.

Seeing that the grapevines were of no use and the River of Wealth was breached, Zagros knew that he might not be able to wait for rescue from other gods. Immediately, black dark energy appeared around Zagros.

Don't be fooled by his usual easy-going appearance, but he still half belongs to the underworld god system. The inherent ferocity of the underworld has always been suppressed by the God of Joy, but at this moment, the God of Joy is dealing with the power of the curse, and it is a matter of life and death, which instead arouses his fierce side as the god of the underworld.

"Since you want me to die, don't even think about having an easy life!"
