"Damn it, you really deserve death!" Zeus was utterly enraged, with violent thunder pouring down on Xue Dili, but the lightning seemed to not harm him in the slightest. Xue Dili once again slashed his palm with a dagger, and with blood all over it, charged towards Zeus.
High in the heavens, Athena said to Hercules, "Do it, target, the hero Xediles!"
"Alright..." Hercules tightened the Nine-headed Serpent Bow in his hand, but the next moment he froze and continued to ask, "Who is the target?"
"Xediles! Listen to me, aim at him!" Athena commanded sternly.
"Buzz!"
The long arrow broke through the thunder, but at the instant it was about to hit Xue Dili, it veered off, landing before him rather than directly hitting him.
Zeus looked upwards and saw one of his favorite sons, Hercules, being the first to try to protect him, finally felt a tinge of relief.
"Kill!" Hector's war cry resounded.
