Chapter 1493: The Final Moments of Olympus

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

If he had not been aware of Vivian’s state of mind, Hao Ren would have thought that the ancestor of the vampires was picking on him.

“My name is Hao Ren. I am your long lost second cousin.” Hao Ren had given up explaining. Instead, he was cooking up stories. After all, Vivian would forget what he said in three minutes. But he immediately regretted it. Hessiana was glaring at him and baring her fangs. It looked like she was about to bite him at any time.

“Don’t look at me like that, I can’t help it,” Hao Ren said helplessly. “Why don’t you fix her?”

Hessiana looked away and ignored Hao Ren.

Meanwhile, Hesperides, like her other compatriots, was worried. She looked at these “allies” who had popped up out of nowhere in disbelief; how could these people still make fun of each other in the face of catastrophe. Hesperides began to suspect their true purpose and identities. Had it not been for Vivian’s vast influence on Mount Olympus, perhaps the ten Olympian gods would have lost their composure.

After all, they were running for their lives. They should have at least behaved more seriously.

“Why hasn’t Hasse arrived?” Lily asked in a low voice. “We sent him a message as soon as we came out.”

“There could be a little delay,” Hao Ren guessed. “After all, he’s deeply mired in the enemy camp. There’s no way he can simply go wherever he wants. He’s one of the highest commanders in the sacred army. If he wants to go anywhere alone, he’ll have to make up a good excuse.”

While Hao Ren was talking to Lily, a rumble suddenly rang from afar.

The sound was coming from underground, and it caused the earth to quake.

Everyone looked at each other in shock before flocking to the nearest window.

Hao Ren was the first one to reach the window, as he was sitting near to it. There was an extremely bright light beam shining in the direction of the temple of Poseidon. The light shone through the great shield above the temple, penetrating the radioactive clouds above Mount Olympus. Above the clouds were many crisscrossing rays, which lit up at the same time and connected every mountain in Olympus. They were intertwined but in an orderly way, forming a spectacular network of light.

The energy released from the temple of Poseidon was overloading the network of light.

Meanwhile, the great shield over the temple of Poseidon dimmed rapidly. It was not the result of a demon hunter attack. It was the gods in the temple of Poseidon that caused this.

*Boom!*

Another loud bang was heard from afar. Hao Ren saw that a vein in the light network had become very bright. The mountain peak connected to the light vein had exploded, spewing clouds of dust and debris high up into the air. It covered most of the sky there. Hao Ren could feel the earth-shattering effects of the explosion even at this distance.

Someone from the crowd of Olympian gods said in a low voice, “That is the temple of Apollo.”

Hao Ren now realized what the bright net in the sky was all about. The network of lights covered the entire atmosphere of the mysterious realm of Olympus.

It dawned on him in almost a split second what caused the explosion. After the last batch of kindlings—the ten Olympians—left, Poseidon and the remaining Olympian gods blew up the entire divine realm knowing that they would die anyway. They did it by overloading the light paths and channeling powerful energy into every temple. Since the temples of the twelve main gods housed the power reactors, overloading them was the best way to blow them up.

The explosions also gave Hao Ren and his team time to flee. When the temple of Athena exploded, Hao Ren noticed that the explosions were attracting the attention of the sacred army. The demon hunters would first assume that the Olympian gods had to be trying to kill everybody with the explosions. Their first reaction would be to evacuate quickly, and they would not pay attention to the small group of survivors.

The light paths were becoming brighter as uncontrollable energy overloaded the network. A chain of explosions started amongst the palaces and towers, which were connected to the light paths’ energy system.

What everyone did not know was, the occurrence there was also affecting the human world.

A horrific vision shrouded the entire Mediterranean region. Terrible booms could be heard in the sky, while huge waves surged from every port and dam, pouring inland and destroying the temple of Poseidon. The temple of Athena also fell apart due to the earthquake. Massive stones descending from the sky crashed the temple of Zeus and smashed the majestic statues of the king of the gods. A few minutes later, a terrible thunder rumbled in the air, and it was audible all the way from Rome to Athens. People looked up at the sky in horror as it cracked open. For the first time in history, the kingdom shrouded in light and clouds was wholly exposed before the eyes of mortals.

Mount Olympus hung in the sky. After the gods detonated most of the power reactors, Mount Olympus could no longer hold itself up, and it slowly crashed into the human world. It broke away from the big rift in the sky above Rome and fell towards Crete.

In the Mediterranean region, the era of the gods was over.

According to the actual historical timeline, however, the crumbling of Mount Olympus only lasted for a few minutes. It all happened in another dimension. What humans saw was just the projection of images on the material world. In the short time that the divine realm and main material world were connected, humans had witnessed the scene of terror. But before people could flee, the vision disappeared all of a sudden. Some people managed to record the doomsday phenomenon, but under the deliberate intervention of some institutions, those records were ultimately lost to history.

Next to Hao Ren, an Olympian god finally came to his senses and screamed, “The great Poseidon is buying us time!”

Hesperides could no longer sit still. She looked at Hao Ren and said, “We must go immediately. The divine realm is falling apart. This is our last chance to escape. Your friend has not appeared, perha[s he has met with an accident.”

Hao Ren stepped forward. Just as he was about to say something, he sensed a familiar signal telepathically.

Almost simultaneously, the Olympian gods also sensed something.

An indescribable sense of terror ran up their spines. Before the gods really knew what was happening, their subconscious minds had entered into combat mode. Even though Hao Ren had taken away their conventional weapons, they still managed to find various daggers and staffs as they stared in the direction of the palace gate.

Hasse ran in. “I’m here, I’m here. There was a situation that caused the delay. Fortunately, Poseidon...”

The old demon hunter paused as his eyes, as well as those of the Olympian gods, turned red.

“Kill him!”

Someone shouted. Then, the descendants of the Olympian gods waved their weapons and attacked Hasse. Lightning balls and flaming arrows flew in the temple, and the glint and flash of cold steel filled the place. Hasse dodged the attacks by fleeting around the hall. “Hao Ren! Do it now. I can’t hold it for long.”

Hao Ren had simulated the scene many times in his head. He quickly took out a stun grenade and threw it at the Olympians who were chasing after Hasse. “Except Hesperides, kill them all.”

As the stun grenade exploded, Hao Ren immediately rushed up to Vivian. Due to the muddled state of her mind, Vivian did not attack Hasse but hid in a corner with the two Hessianas. She was holding little Hessiana in her arms while she was mumbling something to herself. But there was bad news.

Hao Ren noticed that Vivian’s eyes were rapidly turning blood red, and she looked hideous.

The negative stimulus finally came to a tipping point, and the Countess was about to explode in violence.

She raised her hand and pointed at Hasse. Her face was cold. “Enemy!”

Lily rushed up to Vivian and smacked her arm with the side of her sword.

Lily’s actions stunned Vivian, and she froze. At that moment, Hao Ren was already before her, waving the key in front of her eyes. “Vivian! Wake up!”

Vivian saw the key and appeared confused. Her hideous expression subsided.

She looked at Hao Ren and muttered, “Who are you?”

“Can you say anything else?”

Vivian blinked, and her face was blank before she broke into a subtle smile. “I couldn’t help it; that was the only thing on my mind just now. You looked familiar, but I couldn’t remember who you were.”

Hao Ren fixed his eyes on the smiling vampire maiden, then a smile spread across his face. “Hey, you’re awake.”
