Chapter 1333: 1333
Not long after getting into the car, Miss Succubus switched on the car speaker and tuned the radio to the music station. As it turned out, director Zhou’s “All the way north”was playing.
As Miss Succubus listened, she did not forget to comment, “Xia Shu is such a good seedling. If she really exists, I’ll take her in as my disciple.”
Zhang Heng didn’t say anything. He drove his polo down the hill and glanced at the health club that was gradually disappearing into the darkness.
“Oh, you’re not attracted to Isis, are you?”Miss Succubus raised her eyebrows, “Don’t be fooled by her performance. Don’t think that she’s easy to get. In the myths, she’s famous for her loyalty. Although she’s acting a little wild now, as far as I know, she hasn’t really betrayed her husband.”
“That’s not what I’m thinking,”Zhang Heng finally said.
“That’s right. With me by your side, there’s no reason for you to be thinking about other women,”Miss Succubus said with a smile, “Tell me the type of woman you like, or the person you’ve been thinking about for a long time. I can help you fulfill your long-cherished wish.”
Initially, she was just teasing a certain someone, but she didn’t expect Zhang Heng to actually start thinking about it.
“You can enter other people’s dreams, or you can create a dream for them, right?”
“That’s right. There are many such stories in the legends about us,”the succubus said with a nod, “However, don’t think too much of me. Controlling Dreams is the ability of sepnos and his three sons. I can only be responsible for giving you a wet dream.”
“That’s enough,”Zhang Heng said.
It was the succubus’turn to be surprised. “You want me to give you a wet dream? Is there really someone you like but can’t get?”

“No, there is someone I don’t want to see in my dream.”
The succubus was even more confused.

Zhang Heng didn’t explain further and said, “Don’t take it to heart. Just in case, I hope things don’t develop to that stage.”
“Alright.”Miss Succubus did not dwell on the issue anymore. She took off her shoes and placed her bare feet on the dashboard. “Where are we going next?”
“How many gods do you know that have to do with souls?”Zhang Heng asked as he drove.
“Gods that have to do with souls?”Miss Succubus thought about it, “Actually, no matter what God system it is, the one with the greatest connection to souls is the god of death. That’s because the soul will only leave the body after death. Whether it’s receiving or judging these souls, it’s all done by the god of death and his subordinates.”
Miss Succubus paused for a moment before continuing, “In Greek mythology, the job of receiving the souls was done by Hermes. He would bring the souls of the dead through the darkness to the gate of hell guarded by the Cerberus, and then Karon would drive the souls to the other side of the River Styx, which was the land of the flowers of the eternal spring. The three great judges, Ayargus, Minos, and Ladamantes would judge those souls here, and decide whether to send them to the Elysium where happiness was located or to the land of pain, Tartarus. Other than that, there were also some people with the worst diseases who would be sent to the Infernal Hell.
“The Egyptians, on the other hand, were much simpler. After death, the soul would be taken away by Anubis. Before entering the Underworld, Anubis would weigh the heart of the deceased with a scale and use the feather of the goddess of truth as a weight. Meanwhile, the god of wisdom, Todt, would record the results. If the heart was lighter than the feather, one would be able to enter the underworld smoothly. Otherwise, the heart and soul would be swallowed by a monster named Amit.

“Other than that, the Etruscans believed that their souls would be led into the underworld by a wolf-headed demon, Etak. The Lithuanians believed that Childin would appear in the patient’s room dressed in white and strangle the sick to death. The Brittanyans believed that their god of death would drive a carriage to transport their souls…”
As expected of a well-informed person, Miss Succubus had introduced quite a few names in one go. Even Zhang Heng had never heard of some of them, but they were all different versions of the god of death from different places.
Zhang Heng waited for her to finish before taking a deep breath and asking, “Then, where can I find them?”
“Why are you looking for the Grim Reaper?”Miss Succubus was stunned. “Shouldn’t most people avoid them? and usually, they’re the only ones who come to look for you. They appear when you’re about to die and take your soul away.”
“I have some soul issues that I’d like to consult them about.”
Zhang Heng had heard about him from ISIS, and the other party had also pointed out a way for him. However, Zhang Heng couldn’t possibly accept everything. In fact, Zhang Heng didn’t trust Isis at all, even though the two of them had worked well together previously, ISIS had helped him cure Fan Meinan, and he had killed Seth for ISIS.
However, Zhang Heng had already noticed the connection between ISIS and Kronos. Isis had let the cat out of the bag earlier, so he didn’t try to hide it before parting ways, therefore, Zhang Heng wasn’t sure if the last thing she told him was Kronos’instructions. He needed to find someone to verify it.
“What about Hermes? He’s not a pure god of death. Extraditing souls is just one of his tasks. If I remember correctly, this guy likes to wander around the world.”
“You also said that he likes to wander around. It’s the wind, and he’s also the messenger of the gods. No one knows where the wind will blow, but his father Zeus should know where he is,”said the succubus, “Do you want me to take you to Zeus? Although you’re very powerful, to be honest, I don’t think the king of the gods would be willing to meet a mortal like you.”
“Unless it’s absolutely necessary, it’s better for us not to meet Zeus,”Zhang Heng added.
Other than the fact that Zeus was hard to come by, Zhang Heng was also worried that the other party had already found out about his background. He had fought Thor before, so he could feel how powerful a god that was currently “Popular”was, zeus was no less famous than Thor. If the two sides fell out, Zhang Heng was not sure if he would be able to escape unscathed.
Especially if the meeting place was on Mount Olympus, he had to be on guard against the other side swarming over. The danger factor was too high, so Zhang Heng asked, “Is there anyone else?”
“I feel like I’m your Baidu Plus Goode Navigation.”Miss Succubus frowned and thought for a while, “There is indeed someone else, and this guy is the real god of souls. However, in the original myth, this guy was just a little transparent. Logically speaking, after so many years, there shouldn’t be many people who still remember her. However, her luck isn’t bad. With a few sub-worlds and sculptures, her popularity among artists hasn’t declined for a long time, and her man is well-known.”
