The awakened Campe looked at the gods before her. Although Poseidon's divine form wasn't massive at this moment, appearing only human-sized—
The vast and violent divine power of the ocean churning willfully around him, terrible force displayed wantonly, and Poseidon's arrogant attitude still made Campe instantly alert.
Campe, who had spent long years as a prison warden in the underground dark world, cut off from the world, truly didn't know what was happening in the world above.
But she only needed one glance at Poseidon to immediately determine one thing.
She definitely couldn't defeat him.
Never mind being able to find this place and showing no fear of her appearance—this already completely proved extraordinary strength.
Just the vast rolling ocean law divine power emanating from Poseidon was enough to keep Campe absolutely clear-headed.
The fifty beast heads at her waist also awakened with their master, originally wanting to roar twice to express displeasure.
But seeing only Poseidon's profound aura, they immediately closed their eyes and pretended to sleep again, not daring to make the slightest sound, afraid of attracting his attention.
Campe looked again at Zeus and Hades behind Poseidon—the aura emanating from them also made her not consider fighting at all.
She only looked like a monster—in reality, she was from a legitimate primordial god lineage and wasn't stupid at all.
Campe muttered inwardly: 'I'm just a miserable prison warden—why should I risk my life for work?
Look at this work environment! Eternal and endless!
In this endless darkness, what difference is there between warden and prisoner!'
Toward her current miserable job, she felt only helplessness and complaints.
Campe asked very carefully and respectfully: "Honored guests, I am Campe, daughter of Mother of All Things and the Profound Sea. I wonder what commands the respected gods have in coming here?"
Poseidon said unceremoniously: "We are sons of Kronos. The God King's order is corrupt and wrong—we have resolved to overthrow him and establish a new order!"
"Now, we are here at the commission of Mother of All Things Gaia to release her children—those giants imprisoned in the void abyss. You listen obediently and cooperate properly, and nothing will happen."
"Now, immediately release the giant gods, then come with me."
Campe swallowed with difficulty. Poseidon's arrogant and proud attitude, along with the shocking information revealed in his words, left her panicked and confused, her seductive pretty face already full of fear.
She didn't think the other party's arrogant attitude seemed fake.
In the entire universe, absolutely no god would dare speak such lies.
Moreover, the strength of these three deities before her couldn't possibly belong to some nonsense-spouting fools.
But to have her abandon her duties like this—she completely didn't dare. She didn't dare provoke the God King's authority in the slightest.
Just thinking of Kronos's anger made her tremble uncontrollably.
They said they would overthrow him, but hadn't they not overthrown him yet?
Who knew if they actually could overthrow him?
For a moment, she was caught in the middle, in a difficult position.
Zeus gently shook his head, his face full of helplessness—he really couldn't bear watching Poseidon's crudeness.
This stupid brother—didn't he understand they were the righteous side now!
His current attitude made him seem more villainous than the God King.
He stepped forward, gently persuading: "Daughter of Pontus, you are also Mother Goddess's child. Don't disobey Mother Goddess's command."
Saying this, he waved his hand and said to loyal Melius: "Melius, tell her in detail about everything that has happened in the world during this time, as well as Mother Goddess Gaia's commands."
Though Campe wasn't familiar with Melius, she knew he was a subordinate god of Mother Goddess Gaia and quite trusted by the Mother Goddess, so she hurriedly asked him about what had happened in the world.
She had been away from sunlight too long and had no idea the outside world had already been turned upside down.
Melius told her in detail about everything that had happened in the world during this time, as well as Mother Goddess Gaia's explicit commands.
He especially told Campe about the distinguished origins of these three deities before her and how formidable and unmatchable they were.
Of course, he spoke most about Zeus.
Melius praised Zeus to the skies, with words of admiration endless—in his mouth, Zeus was the most perfect god in the world! He would surely replace Kronos in the future and become the new master of the universe!
Loyal Melius truly believed this from his heart.
After learning all this, Campe became even more frightened—these three great gods before her were truly too powerful, countless times stronger than she had sensed.
Of course, she also understood which of these three deities was the true leader.
It wasn't the wildly arrogant and seemingly invincible Poseidon, but that gentle, kind, unfathomable, handsome and martial Zeus.
This God King's son Zeus could actually fight the God King on equal terms!
Such power completely exceeded her imagination, making her completely abandon any thought of struggling, unable to muster even a trace of courage to resist.
She didn't know exactly how strong the God King was, nor did she need to know. She was very clear that no matter how strong the God King was, before him she was as ethereal as smoke.
However, Melius's extremely flattering words gave her a little psychological comfort.
Such a god worthy of respect and trust, so gentle—surely they could sit down and have a good talk?
Perhaps there was still a trace of room for negotiation.
With a hopeful mentality, Campe's massive divine form swayed gently and began gradually shrinking until it was slightly smaller than the forms Zeus and the others displayed.
She moved close to Zeus and the other gods, her seductive and enchanting face full of humble charming smiles, her voice becoming even more sultry: "Respected sons of Kronos, respected sons of the God King, respected sons of the sacred God Queen."
"Campe absolutely dares not obstruct you respected and illustrious ones. I should also obey Mother Goddess's commands. But the God King's commands press on my head like the firmament—I dare not disobey in the slightest."
Her enchanting eyes were filled with difficulty and pleading as she spoke in a pitiful, soul-stirring pleading voice: "Please listen to my heartfelt words—in this sunless darkness, I too have suffered endless torment. I too don't want to fulfill my current duties."
"But I am only a small, inconspicuous goddess who should obey the God King's commands—I can only obey the God King's commands."
"Respected, noble sons of Kronos, could you perhaps wait until after establishing the new order to come here?"
"Then, I, Campe, will definitely obey all the great gods' commands and cooperate without reservation!"
"The new God King's will is my will!"
Zeus smiled lightly. Seeing the sunny smile on his handsome face, Campe hurriedly returned a charming smile, thinking her request had hope and feeling a trace of luck in her heart.
Then she heard Zeus's gentle yet cold voice: "What? Daughter of Pontus, you fear God King Kronos—do you not fear me?"
Campe's seductive smile froze on the spot.
She trembled as she squeezed out a fearful, bitter smile, her voice shaking: "Of—of course not, illustrious God Zeus. How would I dare not respect and revere great you?"
"But... respected God Zeus, faithfully performing one's duty is always correct, right? I only hope to complete my responsibilities—I absolutely don't intend to defy you."
Her voice grew lower and lower, even her body bowing lower. Her unclothed pale upper body had already turned colorless white from fear, her entire posture begging for mercy.
Poseidon couldn't wait any longer. He grinned with a wild and brutal smile—his majestic and handsome face always looked somewhat violent.
He slowly stepped forward, divine power beginning to surge around him, obviously prepared to act directly.
He sneered: "Campe, it seems you need to better understand reality. Your God King is far away, while we are right before your eyes."
Poseidon's threatening appearance and words frightened Campe into an extremely sharp, piercing shriek, her massive dragon body instantly coiling into a disk like a startled snake.
She raised her hands and shouted: "You can't kill me!"
"The laws on me were granted by the God King! If my divine body is destroyed, my divine nature and laws will instantly return to the world, and the God King will immediately know what happened here! Then your plan will be exposed!"
Poseidon's movement faltered, then his smile became even more brutal, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty light, his lip corners full of mocking smile as he pointed at Hades and said to Campe: "Do you know who that is?"
"He is the new master of gloom. In this endless darkness, with him here, we have ten thousand ways to deal with you."
"If you dare defy us, the consequences are beyond what you can bear."
Campe's heart truly went cold, feeling bone-deep chill from the darkness for the first time.
She dared not disobey the God King in the slightest—this fear was already carved into her divine nature.
But if she didn't cooperate now, she would be finished immediately.
Yet if she did cooperate, then later...
As the warden watching the giants, she knew better than anyone how terrible Tartarus was. She had no doubt that God King Kronos wouldn't mind throwing her in there too, to keep company with those giants she guarded.
That was truly more terrifying than death!
Though her current work environment was harsh, supposedly not much different from void, in reality there was still too much difference—the difference between heaven and earth!
Just then, Zeus stopped Poseidon.
He had just examined Campe up and down several times. This goddess, or rather demoness, had quite unusual characteristics with high enough status—he decided to place a spare piece.
No use, no loss. If useful later, that would be profit.
"Poseidon, Campe has her own difficulties. Her loyalty to the God King and faithful duty performance aren't her fault."
Poseidon frowned tightly, his eyes full of confusion and dissatisfaction as he said coldly: "Are we giving up then? Zeus! We don't have time to waste on her—let's deal with this quickly and not waste time!"
