Even though the system was always putting him in danger.
The Sea God Giant Armor could not be left unattended. Poseidon was already rushing towards Athena, the goddess of victory’s temple.
Zeus seemed to have organized a meeting of the gods.
Although he did not know why he, as the god of the sea wasn’t invited, it was obvious that Zeus was very dissatisfied with him. It was probably because he had defeated Ares and was thinking of ways to punish him.
However, Jonah was not worried. As long as he had the SSSS grade Sea God Giant Armor, even if Zeus sent someone to punish him, Jonah was confident that he would be able to face it calmly.
Even if Zeus came personally, Jonah would not embarrass himself.
Furthermore, even though Jonah was unhappy at the fact that Zeus did not invite him to the meeting, he did in turn provide Jonah an opportunity.
Now that the goddess of victory, Athena, wasn’t in the temple, this was the only chance he had to rush to Athena’s bath to check in.
Since this was a heaven-sent opportunity, Jonah wouldn’t give it up.
He used all the divine power in his body and transformed into a blue streak of light, heading towards the goddess of victory’s temple in the Olympus Mountains.
After about 15 minutes, Jonah arrived in front of the temple.
The temple was very grand. At the front, there was a stone statue of the goddess of victory, Athena.
The goddess of victory, Athena, looked magnificent and heroic. Although she looked like a beauty, it could not hide Athena’s aggressive heroic spirit.
At this moment, various information about the Athena slowly appeared in Jonah’s mind.
Athena, the goddess representing wisdom and war, was one of the twelve Olympians of Mount Olympus.
She was also one of the three virgins.
Her father was Zeus, the king of the gods, while her mother was the first generation goddess of counsel, Metis.
It was rumored that Athena had created the first court among humans, and her purity and perfection represented supreme light.
According to the system’s combat strength ranking, Athena’s current strength should only be below his.
His strength was no complete, and Athena was only second to him. It could be seen that Athena’s strength was on a completely different level compared to Ares.
However, at the same time, a thought rose in Jonah’s mind uncontrolled.
Athena was one of the three great virgins, and her body was pure and flawless.
Along with her excellent figure, if he could take Athena’s virginity, he would be able to obtain half of Athena’s strength.
Jonah thought so in his heart and could not help but swallow his saliva.
Being lustful was a man’s nature. Moreover, the goddesses in the deity world were all extremely beautiful and had a devilish figure!
In his past life, Jonah was a true virgin. How could he possibly endure it!
It would be more appropriate to say that it was strange if he could control himself in front of these goddesses!
Thinking of this, Jonah hurriedly shook his head.
What was he thinking about? The most important thing now was to go to Athena’s temple and check-in at the bath.
It was the best timing and opportunity to take advantage of Athena’s absence.
Thus, Jonah carefully came to the side of Athena’s temple.
He slowly spread out his spiritual sense and began to observe the defensive measures of the goddess of victory’s temple.
However, the more Jonah looked, the more ugly his expression was.
“What was going on with Athena?
“Why was she so heavily guarded!”
Jonah was speechless in his heart. Through his investigation, the entire temple was tightly guarded.
Powerful guards patrolled everywhere, and many restrictive machines were present inside the temple.
To put it exaggeratedly, this was an extremely dangerous place, like a dragon’s den or a tiger’s cave!
Could it be that Athena knew that he was coming, so she guarded against him?
That was impossible. He had activated the power of the sea on his way here. With the help of the power, it was impossible for Jonah to not notice if Athena had discovered him.
Taking advantage of the guards’ carelessness, Jonah’s figure was like lightning as he directly charged into Athena’s temple.
Looking at the guards around him, Jonah couldn’t help but curse in his heart.
Now, to reach the bath, he had to pass through three guards and two extremely strict machines.
Moreover, there seemed to be a treasure in the bathroom that could prevent spiritual sense detection.
Such things were generally of a very precious existence.
Moreover, activating it would consume a large amount of divine power. Normally, only very few gods would activate it for a long period of time.
What exactly was going on?
Jonah dodged twice consecutively and finally passed through the tight defense of the guards.
The guards were still manageable because there would always be instances when they would relax.
However, the problem was that the machines in front of him were activated 24 hours a day.
It would be impossible to pass through the defensive traps.
Jonah had a headache.
You are the goddess of knowledge, what are you doing in your own temple that you need to put up such a strong defense?
Aren’t you afraid of injuring your own people?
However, Jonah didn’t care if these traps could hurt him. As one of the top three existences in the divine realm, there were very few people who could hurt him.
If he was not afraid of being discovered, Jonah would have directly barged into Athena’s bath.
If Athena informed Zeus about it, he would probably be laughing as he would now have plenty of reasons to target Jonah.
Suddenly, Jonah discovered the weakness of these machines.
On his right hand, a water droplet easily passed through the machine without being detected.
“Is it impossible to detect the transparent existence of seawater?”
Jonah recalled the scene of him being trapped by the elevator’s door while holding a glass before he transmigrated.
“From the looks of it, this machine is similar to an elevator’s infrared detector!”
Jonah smiled. Next, he turned into pure seawater and passed through the machines.
Looking at the final obstacle, Jonah could not help but wipe the sweat off his face.
This was really psychologically draining.
He still did not know the details of Zeus’s meeting. He hoped that this stupid brother of his would be able to buy him more time.
The final barrier was a simple and unadorned longsword.
The longsword quietly floated mid-air.
Jonah tried to test it out with the seawater, but he was directly attacked by the longsword!
The attack was extremely sharp and fast. It left afterimages in the air.
However, this was completely useless against the seawater that could not be harmed.
Once again, Jonah turned into seawater. Under the frenzied attack of the longsword, he easily passed through the last restriction.
Jonah returned to his human form and was happily prepared to walk into the bath.
But just as Jonah’s large hand was holding the door handle, he froze on the spot.
As he had already entered the bath’s area, the magic treasure that could block spiritual detection was naturally out of range.
The scene in the bath was shockingly exposed in Jonah’s mind.
“Athena is back!?”
