Chapter 7: The Witch's Prophecy

  The group of travelers led by Mu Chen, who were heading towards their destination, Mount Luoren, began to notice the harsh environment around them, which was unprecedented.

  This mountain has nothing but rocks, not even a single blade of grass, and the sky at the top is covered with thick dark clouds. The visibility here is extremely low, it's hard to describe, if people don't hold torches for lighting, it's very easy to fall down the mountain.

  This is a mountaintop, and the distance from the ground is still quite high. If you fall down... Hehehe... everyone can imagine the consequences.

  Moreover, from time to time in the clouds, huge lightning would appear, and seeing this, people couldn't help but be a little cautious. After all, if one were struck by lightning, that would be a disaster. However, those three witches actually lived in such an obvious thunderstorm area for so many years without being struck dead, which was quite lucky.

  After a treacherous and arduous journey, the group finally reached the summit where the witches resided. However, this place was also shrouded in darkness, with only occasional flashes of lightning illuminating the surroundings for an instant. At this moment, through the flash of lightning that had just appeared, Mochou Xing discovered that the mountain top actually presented a shape resembling a giant palm. Considering that this place used to be the final battlefield where Kraken solved the Titans, it was likely that the strange mountain peak was once a Titan's arm transformed.

  In the midst of everyone's vigilance, Bertholdt threw the torch towards what seemed to be a furnace, and the flames were indeed ignited, illuminating the surroundings. At the same time, a very unpleasant female voice came from the front.

  "Uninvited guest!"

  "Who? The uninvited guest is where?"

  "Give me your eyes and I'll take a look at this unexpected guest!"

  With a strange and unpleasant sound, three figures emerged from the darkness. It seemed that they were the legendary witches.

  As they approached, Berus and his companions were immediately startled by these strangely shaped witches.

  After meeting those three witches, although he had mentally prepared himself beforehand, Muxin Xing was still shocked by their extremely beautiful appearances.

  Originally, Mucun Xing thought that the mad dog of Karybos was already ugly enough, but unexpectedly, compared to these three in front of him, it was still slightly inferior. Indeed, among all the monsters in Greek mythology, there is no ugliest, only more ugly ones.

  If they didn't speak human language, Muxun Xing would have definitely treated them as a few alien creatures.

  "These three guys are witches? They really look too strange!" Mu Chen Xing directly expressed the feelings in his heart.

  "Outsiders, witches are supposed to look like this. What did you think they looked like, a group of beauties?" The team leader Drako replied loudly while gripping his weapon tightly.

  "These three don't look like they're up to any good, we'd better be careful. Don't let them bite us." Mudan Xing reminded everyone, he was very suspicious that these witches might be carrying rabies.

  Everyone was relatively convinced of Mudan Xing's proposal, and the three witches were indeed unable to make people completely at ease. The white bones on the ground at this time were very good evidence. So everyone began to secretly guard against each other.

  As usual, Perseus began to ask the witches about any method of defeating Kraken, but the witches did not have such a good mood to tell him honestly.

  This group of people actually proposed to offer sacrifices and even set their sights on a young soldier among the group of Borussia, and then rushed up very quickly.

  But this group of people got into big trouble this time, and they were all knocked flying by the heavy blows that suddenly appeared, hitting the stone wall. And the eyeball in their hands fell to the ground not far from Perseus and his companions.

  "What's the point of wasting words with these guys? Use this to threaten them directly, watch me!" Mu Chen Xing picked up the eyeball and spoke bluntly to the crowd who had not yet reacted from what just happened.

  Mudan Xing no longer wanted to slowly follow the plot, so he came out and pushed forward the development of the plot himself.

  For example, in this plot, Berthaus and others originally had to fight another battle with the witch before they could get the information they wanted, but first, under the intervention of Muxin Xing, it was not so troublesome.

  "You three, listen up! Tell me right now how to deal with Kraken. Otherwise, I'll crush this thing!" Mu Chen Xing said indifferently to the three witches lying on the ground.

  Mudustar still had a grasp of his strength, he didn't kill the three witches in one go, after all they still needed to perform below.

  Although Mucun Xing already knew what method they wanted to say, this process still had to be followed. After all, if he himself told the crowd to find Medusa as a way to deal with Kraken, it would be too suspicious.

  Moreover, Muxin Xing didn't want to be noticed by the gods either. After all, the world of mythology was different from that of science fiction. Who knew what kind of abilities those gods had? He certainly didn't want to be easily treated like an ant and squashed to death by the gods.

  "You can't do this, outsider!"

  "Right, you can't!"

  "No, no!"

  Upon hearing Mudan Xing's threatening words, the three witches hastily got up and spoke anxiously, apparently still very concerned about that single eye.

  "Then hurry up and say it... Don't waste any more time..." Murong Xing said impatiently once again.

  The three witches all became honest and started the rhetoric in the movie. After seeing Mudan Xing's approach, Ba Xiuren and his party had a deep understanding of his resolute style under his elegant appearance.

  "Now that we know how to deal with Kraken, we can leave." Mudanxing threw his eyes at the witches after they finished speaking, and then smiled and said to everyone.

  Captain Drako knew as soon as he heard the crazy idea of going to the other side of the River Styx to find Medusa that it was not a very likely thing, these people had no way to control that female monster.

  "Then bring me her head at once."

  "Clever, that's one way to do it. But this time, Berthaus, you will die, definitely!" The three witches once again set the atmosphere with their terrifying voices, and at this moment, Mochi thought they were absolutely suitable for telling ghost stories on the radio.

  "Bartholomew is gone... We don't have much time left." Muxin Xing reminded him by patting his shoulder.

  "Outsider... Hehehe... Although we can't see your past, in the future you will be pierced by Medusa's bow and arrow, and you will also be turned to stone by Medusa!" The witches cast another spell on Muxuying at this time.

  Bo Xiu and the others couldn't help but look at him after hearing the witch's prophecy about Mu Chen Xing. The person in question, however, spoke with a relaxed tone and laughed, saying: "It's nothing, even if I'm shot through the abdomen by an arrow, it doesn't necessarily mean I'll die. So everyone doesn't have to look at me like that, let's hurry up and leave, this environment isn't very good."

  After coming down from the mountain top, all the evil spirits except their leader began to prepare to leave this place. They were obviously frightened by the witch's prophecy and did not want to go to the underworld to die like that. However, Muxin Xing found out that Boxiu was not following the crowd closely at this time, but was walking slowly alone, seemingly thinking about something.

  Mudanxing didn't go to disturb Bo Xiu, because in a moment, the old man Zeus, who was the leader of all gods, would come to find him. And he prepared to persuade Bo Xiu to give up his next journey and return to Mount Olympus with him to live a god's life.

  But Perseus would certainly refuse the request, and Zeus also gave him a coin to pay for the ferryman's fee to cross the River Styx. And as in the plot, after Perseus saw his powerful father, he finally descended from the mountain, while the two hunters clearly stated that they were ready to withdraw from the next action when they heard that they would go to the underworld this time.

  After all, in the eyes of the ancient Greeks, the underworld had always been a symbol of death, and it was impossible for the living to reach that place and still come back alive.

  But normally, if nothing's wrong with them, who would willingly run to that country of death... unless they have a screw loose.

  After handing over the scorpion shell shield to Perseus, the two hunters formally withdrew from the team with great embarrassment, but the people present did not show any disdain or ridicule towards them. In the battles along the way, they had already proven their strength through their actions, and everyone understood that they were unwilling to go to the underworld.

  If others didn't have an unavoidable reason, I believe most people wouldn't be willing to risk their lives and run to the underworld for fun. At this moment, this team with a heavy burden lost two more members, but compared to the original story of the movie, there are still more people left.

  Before long, everyone finally arrived at the intersection of the underworld and the mortal world. Unexpectedly, this place was located in a large pit similar to a volcanic crater, which was really ridiculous.

  After they went down, they saw the famous River of Sorrow Akhron that separates the world from the underworld. Here, except for a dilapidated ferry, the entire river surface was completely covered with thick fog, and the surroundings were eerily quiet.

  The only boat here is that broken-down ferry used by the Charon to pick up the dead, and since there are no dead among them now, the boat won't appear.

  Boers is out of his mind, he actually suggested that if it really doesn't work, everyone will swim over together.

  This is also too crazy, what's in front of them isn't an ordinary river, but the Naihe River with the title of "Feather Submerged River", and Mocheng Xing would rather die than get into the water.

  Ignoring the group, Muxin Xing crouched down and stretched out a collector from his backpack towards the dark River of Underworld below, then began to extract water from it.

  For this special river water, Muxin Xing was also very curious. Now let's get some back and have Old Zhou and the others study it to see if there are any special effects.

  "What are you doing? This is the river water of the underworld, it can't be drunk." Aiwu asked curiously after discovering Mudan Xing's strange behavior.

  "I knew that, I was just collecting some things to take back home, hmm... the boat has arrived!" Mu Chen Xing said in response to Ai E's questioning, and found that Ming He's ferryman's boat had already come.

  It seems that the evil spirit has successfully bribed the ferryman with money, and since the boat has arrived, everyone else did not hesitate to board this seemingly very old broken ship.

  After all the people had boarded, the ferryman of the underworld set off in this ancient boat towards another world!

  There, Perseus will face the most terrifying monster so far - Medusa, the snake-haired Gorgon.
