Chapter 404 Chapter God-killing Sword
The desire in Lin You's heart was quickly crushed by the thunderous hooves of the Amazon warriors. Dozens of agile female warriors, led by a stern-looking middle-aged woman, rode on tall horses and surrounded Lin You.

A large group of women in armor drove their war horses in circles on the beach, surrounding an "unarmed" man with grim eyes. Lin You felt like he had become a prey in a hunting ground, being hunted, and couldn't help feeling uneasy.

It’s not that the author is afraid of a group of Amazon women, but that men with “ulterior motives” are instinctively afraid of the women’s “family members”.

After all, Chinese men, with normal values ​​and thinking, will be short of breath when facing their wives' families? How many men, when accompanying their wives to their families' homes, just want to sit at the door and play with the dog all day? Not to mention that Lin You has not yet realized his "bad intentions".

"Who are you?" Antiope's voice was filled with undisguised hostility.

It was the same question, even the wording was the same, but when compared, the Amazon princess who ran away angrily was really gentle...

"The envoy of Olympus comes to visit Queen Hippolyta." Lin You lied with his eyes open; he was already very good at using big words to deceive others.

"You're lying!" Antiope shouted, and the surrounding female warriors drew their bows and arrows, aiming at Lin You. "We didn't receive any oracle beforehand, and Zeus would not send a mortal to deliver the oracle, let alone send a man to Paradise Island."

Although the Amazons have long lives and seem extraordinary, they are actually just the result of Zeus's protection. In essence, they are still mortals. There is even a legend that these Amazon women are the souls of the dead who died in battle and resurrected. But no matter what the situation is, they don't know that the so-called "Zeus" they are talking about is just a wisp of the divine thought of the true god.

It was like a protective force field that had always shrouded Paradise Island. Lin You could clearly see the magic power operating within it. The force field was formed not by divine power, but by a huge magic circle that used the magical knowledge that Hecate had passed on to the material plane.

"First of all, I am a man, and there is no way to refute it." Lin You spread his hands, "But if you say that I am a mortal, then you are short-sighted."

Such brazen words, before Antiope could get angry, a ball of divine light suddenly burst out on the beach; the "golden flame" was centered on Lin You, sweeping in all directions, covering all the Amazons.

The fire suddenly appeared, and the Amazons panicked instinctively at first, and the horses under their crotches neighed; but their reactions could not keep up with the speed of the flames. In an instant, the raging flames spread from the horses' hooves upwards, covering their entire bodies.

But surprisingly, these flames did not hurt people. Instead, they exuded an uplifting atmosphere in the warmth. Not only did they boost the morale of everyone, even the war horses were affected, becoming calm and resolute, and executing their masters' orders more quickly and firmly.

The "golden flame" was released and then retracted, and in a blink of an eye, the beach returned to peace. Without the neighing and hoofbeats of the war horses, it was even quieter than before; so quiet that Lin You could clearly hear a quick and suppressed cry from the woods in the distance. He glanced in the direction of the sound and saw a figure quickly retreating deeper into the woods.

Is it that curiosity overwhelms my awe of my aunt?
"Are you a servant of the god of war or a servant of Athena?" Antiope was more knowledgeable and was the first to wake up among the Amazons. She even analyzed the effect of the divine power just now and made a judgment that best matched her cognition.

The divine power that can inspire people to fight comes either from the god of war Ares or the goddess of war Athena.

"I'm no one's servant. I'm just an employee." Lin You curled his lips. "Can you tell me the details after I meet Her Majesty Hippolyta? I think I have proven my identity."

Although the power just used came from the Ophiuchus microcosm and the Moirai fate seed, as a story built on the Olympus mythology system, the power of the Saint Seiya system mostly coincides with the aura of the Olympian gods. Therefore, at this moment, Lin You can brazenly claim that he is the messenger of Zeus without worrying about being exposed. Antiope hesitated for a moment and knew that the matter was no longer something she could handle alone; Paradise Island did not welcome men, but it could not easily reject a male "god", especially when the other party had obvious marks of the Olympian pantheon.

"Come with me! Do you want to ride a horse?"

"Well... no need, I can keep up." Lin You looked around. The Amazon female warriors present were riding one horse each, and there were no extra horses. If there was a Diana among the female riders present, that would naturally be a different matter. But now he didn't want to sit behind someone else's horse, so he had to refuse.

Fortunately, it is not a problem for the Saint Seiya to keep up with the warhorse with his speed; his leisurely posture of walking as if riding a horse actually adds a bit of extraordinary "god" style.

The "King's Court" of Paradise Island is filled with the atmosphere of ancient Greek civilization; whether it is the Ionic columns on the outside or the tall, open and almost empty space on the inside, it is almost a replica of the large temple buildings in ancient Greece.

"Who are you?" This was the third time that Lin You had heard the same question since he arrived on the island, except that this time the question was asked by a majestic queen, whose tone became cold and rigid, without any personal emotion. "I don't remember there being a god like you on Mount Olympus."

"Although I have come here with the entrustment of the God King Zeus, I am not a member of Olympus." Lin You's words were half true and half false; hunting down the God of Truth and taking back the devoured God of War godhood was indeed Zeus's goal, and it was also one of the main tasks of the author to go deep into the time restricted area.

"Please speak directly, time is precious!" Hippolyta urged; she obviously didn't like the way of speaking in a roundabout way. Perhaps this is also the style of the entire Amazon tribe.

"I am here to seek the 'God-killing Sword', Your Majesty." Lin You said solemnly, "Ares is ready to make a move and is about to start a large-scale war. The only thing that can kill him is the God-killing Sword; this sword is now on Paradise Island."

While Lin You was talking, he noticed a figure quietly flashing in from the corner of his eye, and then crept into a corner to hide. So the writer pretended to be calm and looked at the person quickly to confirm his identity.

Well, it was her. This girl's curiosity was so strong that she broke other people's "preconceptions" time and time again.

Looking at her slender and agile figure, the actions were obviously sneaky and furtive, but she seemed to be casual and calm when she did it, full of a sense of rightness and uprightness. The only thing was that when her eyes met the writer's, she was suddenly dazed, and then she looked around innocently, not daring to look at him.

Even the writer saw Diana, so how could Hippolyta not notice it from her high position? However, this was a serious "diplomatic occasion" and Her Majesty the Queen could not immediately pick out her daughter to teach her a lesson.

"The God-killing Sword is indeed kept in my hands, and it was indeed forged to punish the willful gods; but not just anyone is qualified to use this sword." Hippolyta's words were calm, with a hint of doubt and rejection in them.

Unexpectedly, Lin You laughed out loud and said something even more shocking: "Your Majesty, you seem to have misunderstood my purpose. The sword of God-killing that I want is not the dead thing you hid in the altar, but the one that truly has the power to kill God..."

"Shut up!" Her Majesty the Queen's face turned pale and she interrupted the writer.
