Three people, three figures. Their clothing is very ancient, with no record of such garnts on Earth.
Two of the figures are male, and one is female. One man's entire body emits a golden glow, while the other figure seems stronger, radiating a water-blue hue all over. The woman's face constantly carries a happy smile, very beautiful and loving.
At the appearance of the three, Ye Hao quickly retreated a few steps and cautiously asked, "Who are you, seniors?"
"Oh, the language of ancient Huaxia?" The pretty woman with the happy smile softly asked.
"I am a Huaxia person. Who are you, seniors?" Ye Hao guessed they might be the legendary Hera, the goddess of marriage, and the other two are Apollo, the Sun God, and Poseidon, the Sea God.
"Hehe, hello, friendly Huaxia descendant. I am Hera." Hera extended her ethereal right hand and then placed it on her left shoulder.
Ye Hao followed her gesture and greeted, "Hello Hera, I've heard your legends. Are you known as the Main God of marriage?"
"Oh? Do descendants still praise like this?" Hera asked with a smile.
"I don't really believe it, but I think you're definitely a Great Power, Hera." Ye Hao complinted Hera. In this situation, it was better to save his life first and avoid displeasing them.
"Descendants' exaggerated tales passed from generation to generation, the further back the history, the more exaggerated it becos." Hera said with a smile, indicating to Ye Hao that although those tales have so truth, they're not so exaggerated.
"Is the person next to you the Sea God Poseidon and the Sun God Apollo?" Ye Hao asked.
"Hehe, what Sea God? Just a fisherman on the sea." The middle-aged man emitting a water-blue glow all over said with a smile.
Although he spoke simply, living in their era, even a fish from the sea was not sothing modern people could easily deal with.
"Alright, seniors, why did you attract my three siblings here?" Ye Hao asked, returning to the main question. He didn't want to waste any more ti here. He had been abroad for several days, and it was ti to end the journey early and return ho.
After all, Huaxia is their ho. No matter how warm it is abroad, it isn't as comfortable and reassuring as in Huaxia, not to ntion Ye Hao's loved ones are in Huaxia.
"For them, it's a good thing, but for responsibility, perhaps a bad thing," said Apollo, the Sun God.
"May I ask what responsibility, Apollo the Sun God?" Ye Hao asked, turning to Apollo, who was glowing all over.
"The responsibility of protecting the Divine Core." At this, Hera caught Ye Hao's question, ceasing her smile and turning serious.
"What Divine Core?" Ye Hao was even more puzzled. What is all this?
"The Divine Core, the ultimate weapon we crafted together under Athena's lead," Hera said.
"What is it used for?" Ye Hao asked.
"Originally, it was intended to eliminate Zeus, this dictator. However, when we researched the Divine Core, we realized its power is so imnse that just one Divine Core could destroy the entire Earth and even nearby star regions. Thus, we can't use the Divine Core and must protect it, preventing malicious use leading to devastation," Hera explained.
"Where is the Divine Core?" Ye Hao was shocked. What kind of weapon could destroy an entire Earth? Could such an ultimate weapon really be researched by people from a long ti ago?
"The Divine Core is at the lowest level of this pyramid," Apollo disclosed to Ye Hao without any concealnt.
"Why tell ?" Ye Hao asked.
"Because you are not in our inheritance, and you don't have the power to activate the Divine Core, so we need soone to convey our words," Hera replied.
"Does that an I need to supervise my siblings, letting them guard the core as they grow stronger, passing it down generation by generation?" Ye Hao asked.
"Yes," Hera confird.
"Why don't you guard the core yourselves?" Ye Hao asked.
"Hehe, we're only Soul Bodies. Our flesh was destroyed nine thousand years ago. This is our last appearance on Earth; in the future, we will no longer exist," said Poseidon, the Sea God.
"Alright then! I'd like to know how to open the place holding the core?" Ye Hao asked.
"Collect Athena, Ares, and Hades' inheritance to open this restriction," Hera responded.
"So I must help you find the inheritors of Athena, the Wisdom Goddess, and others?" Ye Hao said sowhat indignantly. "There's no part for in this inheritance, yet I have to help you find it?"
"Yes, of course! You can refuse to find Athena's inheritors, but you will endanger your siblings because after sealing the core, we set it so that if any inheritor appears, all must be found, and only when all inheritors are present can the Divine Core be opened. If not found within a millennium, the Divine Core will remain sealed at the pyramid base, and your brothers who have received the inheritance will die due to the lack of our latter inheritance," Poseidon declared.
"What?" Ye Hao's eyes widened, staring at Poseidon, then he roared, "You an the inheritance you gave is incomplete, and it's rigged, urgently needing them to find all inheritors within a thousand years?"
"Yes, I prefer speaking to intelligent people who understand in an instant," Poseidon said.
"You can't do this! This is forcing us; we cannot live for a thousand years. Where will I find all the inheritors among the vast human sea?" Ye Hao shouted.
"That's your task. There must be gain for loss. They can attain, but might lose if they don't strive, serving as a constant push for them to strive," Poseidon said.
"But you must give a hint, right?" Ye Hao asked feebly, spreading his hands.
"Hehe, no hints. But you can bring three siblings at a ti for the inheritance, next ti may bring another few inheritors," Hera said with a laugh.
"This is just coincidence. Such coincidence won't always happen to , so I demand a hint," Ye Hao protested.
"Sorry, friendly Huaxia person, we don't know what kind of person suits our inheritance, so you need to work hard to find them," Hera said.
"I..."
"Hehe, ti is short, it's ti for us to be free. Rember, the Divine Core is a force of justice, hopefully one day you can open the pyramid and retrieve it," Hera said with a chuckle.
Soon after, the three figures disappeared as silently as they appeared. (To be continued. If you like this work, welco to visit Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read at m.qidian.)
