Answer:

a) The Rivers Styx, Archeron, Phlegethon that flow through the underworld

Explanation:

The Rivers Styx, Archeron and Phlegethon mentioned in this text are three of the five rivers that are believed by the Greek to separate the earth from the underworld.

They are not Roman cities as in option B

Option C is incorrect because they are not stars and are not associated with wealth, fame, and power. Rather,  Phlegethon is a river of fire, Acheron, a river of peril, and Styx is a river that is void of love .

Option D is incorrect because Hercules never faced them.

agasfer [191]
If by Hollywood Killer you're referring to DD Clark and Carol M. Bundy then they would lure prostitutes and young teenage girls to have sexual intercourse and shoot them shortly after. Some he decapitated and some he would procede to having sexual intercourse even after they were dead (necrophilia). He would dispose of the bodies out in the open.
