Chapter 502 Only Magic Can Defeat Magic

The huge warships broke through the waves on the sea. The pinnacle of human technology, the most powerful weapon that can kill its own kind with amazing efficiency, is now heading to the Mediterranean at full speed.

Their target is Mount Olympus, the highest peak in Greece, located on the north shore of the Thermaic Gulf in the Aegean Sea.

They want to bring death and destruction to the gods there, and use steel and gunpowder to let the gods know the dignity of mortals.

After a thousand years, the mortals on earth once again launched a charge against the laws of the gods in the sky.

The top leaders are optimistic.

Because according to intelligence, those evil spirits seem to be only stronger and faster than ordinary people. Although they have some long-range attack methods, it is quite funny.

It's almost the 21st century, and they are still doing fireballs, water bombs, and ice blades! The power and accuracy of those things are about the same as flintlock rifles, which is really funny.

The only thing to worry about is the possession ability of some of them. But as long as you choose to attack from a distance, these demons will have nothing to do with them.

Now it seems that the so-called gods are out of date, and now is the era of humans!

With this idea in mind, the war began. Most people think that this war will be a reappearance of the Gulf War, and the performance of the ancient Greek gods may not be as good as that of the Iraqi army.

When everyone was optimistic, Admiral Grady, the commander-in-chief of the joint fleet, could not laugh, because he had just received a series of news.

"Commander, the communication is interfered with, and we have lost contact with the USS Ranger!" "The Royal Ark has also lost contact!" "We can't contact the USS Saratoga!"

"Commander, radar failure!"

The matter is very tricky, and their communication equipment seems to be paralyzed in an instant, which caught Admiral Grady off guard.

He frowned, knowing in his heart that it was probably the Greek gods who took action.

But how did they do it? Electromagnetic interference? But why do these antiques thousands of years ago understand this? Wait...

In addition to being called the "King of the Gods", what else is Zeus called?

"The sky, thunder and lightning, the god of dark clouds..." Admiral Grady muttered to himself, with a voice full of uncontrollable fear.

He hurriedly looked out the porthole.

As if responding to his gaze, a dark cloud suddenly rose from the originally clear sky. Just like an ink bottle knocked over on a piece of white paper, the dark cloud expanded at an extremely fast speed.

Admiral Grady remembered the assurances given to him by the meteorologists before departure.

[There will be no dark clouds in the Mediterranean within three days]

Then he took another look at the clouds that had covered half of the sun on the sea surface, and Admiral Grady felt his temples throbbing.

Is this the power of Zeus? Oh my God, is this the power of God? This covers the entire Mediterranean? !

Admiral Grady felt a hint of despair, and at the same time realized one thing: in order to cross the Strait of Gibraltar and enter the Mediterranean, the formation of him and his fleet seemed a little dense.

This was just a small, insignificant mistake in the past, and it couldn't even be called a mistake, because there was no force on Earth that could threaten a fleet of this size, but now this loophole seems to have been magnified into a fatal flaw.

Admiral Grady's hands were shaking uncontrollably. He looked at his messenger and almost shouted: "Send a flag signal, everyone evacuate--"

It's too late.

Time seemed to have stopped.

Through the porthole, Admiral Grady saw a ball of fire on the Normandy missile cruiser at the front of the fleet. Admiral Grady was an experienced naval commander, and he could even see that it was the light of the Tomahawk cruise missile explosion.

The worst thing is that the Normandy missile cruiser is a Ticonderoga-class cruiser. The most famous thing about this type of cruiser is that they all carry a very famous system called "Aegis".

Now it seems that Aegis cannot resist Zeus.

The Normandy was the first to explode, followed by the ships beside it, destroyers, frigates, and most importantly, aircraft carriers...

The speed at which the ships exploded was so fast that it was unimaginable. If the cost of these ships was calculated as a sum and then the number was written on paper, before the number was finished, the ships would have all turned into balls of fire.

Admiral Grady closed his eyes and gave up command.

Communications were paralyzed, and the ships exploded. At this time, it made no difference whether he commanded or not.

All he could do was to fulfill his obligations.

That day, endless dark clouds covered the sea, and all detection methods failed. No one knew what happened there, everyone only knew the ending.

After the dark clouds dispersed, the most powerful fleet in the world or in human history, including nine aircraft carriers and 247 warships from three countries, disappeared, and even submarines could not escape.

As long as there is electricity on the ship, Zeus's attack will come in an instant.

Zeus destroyed the entire combined fleet in thirteen seconds.

The destruction of the combined fleet shocked the coalition.

After realizing that the war had begun, they immediately decided to launch a counterattack. They sent out planes, bombed Mount Olympus, and launched all the missiles they could launch in uncontrollable fear, even including their nuclear weapons.

In modern warfare, the enemy can be destroyed beyond visual range.

They comforted themselves with these words, but all these methods were ineffective.

The missile exploded under the influence of an unknown force halfway through the journey, and the remaining fighter planes lost contact with the joint fleet after flying to the area of ​​Mount Olympus.

As for close-range bombardment, the coalition also tried it, but the tanks, armored vehicles and artillery units were intercepted halfway through the journey. It was still the same dark clouds covering the sun, and it was still a pile of wreckage after the dark clouds dispersed.

The coalition collapsed.

Five years ago, the joint forces led by the United States destroyed the Iraqi troops stationed in Kuwait with a crushing momentum. Five years later, they tasted the taste of the former Iraqi army.

That was a force completely beyond imagination, an existence that subverted common sense.

The failure of the coalition swept the world like a storm, spreading panic.

It was only two days before Godric was truly resurrected.

Rice, Rowena, Helga, Godric and Dumbledore did not stay in Hogwarts at this time, but came to London and found an inconspicuous Muggle tavern. Like thousands of ordinary Muggles, they huddled in the tavern to watch the news.

At this moment, there was no more important news than the battle between humans and gods. Even football, basketball and rugby games were suspended.

People understood that this was the moment to determine the fate of mankind.

Unfortunately, the balance fell to the gods.

The god king Zeus successfully awakened the fear of God in mankind.

"My God, why are they so weak?" Godric widened his eyes, completely unable to understand why the Muggles were beaten by the gods without any ability to fight back.

"Because only magic can defeat magic." This was Rowena's answer.

"When I was reading the encyclopedia, I couldn't help but think of a question," Rice said softly, "A wizard with the field of thunder and lightning, does he have a devastating strike power against modern Muggles..."

"Zeus helped me prove this conjecture."

After hearing Salazar's words, several people fell into silence again.

Les stopped talking. He didn't expect the Muggles to be so weak, and they were vulnerable in front of Zeus.

Although Zeus, who was resurrected and restored through large-scale life sacrifices, was very strong, he shouldn't be so strong, right? Or was it that the lightning domain was too restrained by Muggle technology?

In the face of a single fight, ordinary wizards would definitely win against Muggles. If the army attacked as a whole, it would be difficult for wizards without domain wizards to resist Muggles, but when they met domain wizards, the Muggle army was no match for wizards.

Mutual promotion and mutual restraint are so wonderful.

"Can you win against Zeus?" This was Dumbledore's question.

"You can win." Godric responded with confidence, "He is weaker than Odin back then. After all, he was resurrected and lost too much of his divinity. I feel that even if I am alone, I can get rid of him."

Godric's words made Dumbledore feel at ease.

Zeus's power frightened countless people, and whether they should surrender to the gods became a hotly debated topic. The gods needed lives as sacrifices, which ordinary people could not accept.

Some Muggle leaders began to seek help from special "friends".

In the highest authorities of some countries, Muggle leaders and wizard leaders held secret meetings.

Although the "Statute of Secrecy" exists, the Ministry of Magic of various countries, including the British Ministry of Magic, will maintain a weak connection with the Muggle government to ensure that the magical world can always hide.

Of course, the forgetfulness spell is the basis for this contact. Once it goes wrong, a forgetfulness spell can overturn everything.

At this time, the Daily Mail did an exclusive interview, which attracted the attention of people all over the world.

The name of the interview is "Homelander"

The person in the video easily solved the powerful demon and said the classic saying: The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.

At such a moment, it instantly gave the lost people a shot in the arm.

Humanity is not alone, and there is still hope for humanity.

The video was naturally seen by the five people in the tavern.

At the beginning of the interview, Rice realized that something was wrong. He wanted to take the opportunity to leave, but Godric forced him to stay.

Then they couldn't hold it anymore.

"You are really amazing!"

"Cover your face, I thought it was Gryffindor who was talking!"

"With great power comes great responsibility." Rowena imitated Rice's voice and said vividly.

Dumbledore couldn't hide the smile in his eyes.

"I'm just trying to restore the image of wizards. This invasion of the underworld is a disaster, but it is also a great opportunity for the magic world to be accepted by Muggles again. We shouldn't miss this opportunity." Rice kept explaining himself, but his friends, including Dumbledore, responded with a smile.

"I guess the Muggles are looking for me like crazy now - they are desperate." Rice knew that everything was under his control.

...

The Cabinet Office next to 10 Downing Street

Percy knocked on the door of the office of Sir Bernard, the Cabinet Secretary.

"Oh, Mr. Weasley, you are here, please take a seat!" Sir Bernard pressed his temple and enthusiastically asked Percy to sit down.

After a simple greeting, Bernard casually asked a question.

"Mr. Weasley, what do you think of the great battle in the Mediterranean?"

Percy was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Sir Bernard wanted to talk to him about this.

In fact, there was a big problem with Sir Bernard wanting to meet him. His rank was just a small "vice minister", three levels lower than Bernard's "cabinet secretary", and this was the result of the Ministry of Magic cheating for him.

The gap was so big, but he still had to meet alone, which was worth his careful consideration.

Percy certainly knew about the war that broke out in the Mediterranean before. After analyzing the intelligence from both the magic and non-magic worlds, although Percy was shocked by the defeat of the Muggles, he did not have too much fear and defeatism.

Because he felt that Zeus's attack method was still within the scope of understanding.

Zeus did use quite powerful magic, which looked like a weather spell, but Percy chose to believe Dumbledore.

(Dumbledore:???)

In Percy's view, although Zeus was extremely powerful, he was like a larger version of the mysterious man. Since they defeated the mysterious man, they could definitely defeat Zeus.

However, Percy did not dare to think deeply about the situation of other gods on Mount Olympus. He was afraid that he would lose confidence in the magic world after he figured it out.

"In terms of universal rationality..." Percy said a long and difficult sentence. This is a new skill he learned after joining the civil service group.

That is the ability to make a very simple answer complicated.

Bernard lost his patience halfway through listening, and he said to Percy directly: "So the magic world can fight these monsters?"

Percy:?

He was a little confused, but the next second his hand touched his wand.

"Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions!" Bernard quickly spoke to Percy to calm him down and explained his source of information.

"Mr. Crouch told me." Bernard spit out a name that surprised Percy.

"When he first met me, he was the Director of the Department of Law Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic, and later he became the Director of the Department of International Magical Cooperation. I believe you must have heard of him. You can go and confirm with him."

Percy was silent.

Mr. Crouch must have seriously violated the provisions of the confidentiality law, but it seems that Bernard has not been in contact with Crouch for a long time?

"How did you figure it out?" Percy tried to suppress all the thoughts in his mind and asked about the reason why he was discovered.

If it was Mr. Crouch who reported it, his crime would be even more serious.

"It's your file. You did try to cover it up, but the method was still a bit clumsy and it was easy to find clues. There are also some problems with details. You are the first person who graduated from Oxford with a high literary talent but can't say long and difficult sentences well."

Percy felt his face flushed.

Bernard did not continue to delve into this topic, but turned to the main topic.

"Mr. Weasley, I hope you can help me get a connection and let me meet with the big shots in your magic world. I think it's time to cooperate sincerely."
