Greece: Age of Ascension

Chapter 2 Turning to Wisdom

After Cronus came to power, fearing the strength of the hundred-armed giant, he did not release the hundred-armed giant and the cyclops, but imprisoned them in the deepest hell "Tartaros".

Gaia originally planned that the other party would release his brother, but who would have thought that Kronos would be more ruthless, after playing such a game, she was so angry that she no longer wanted to pay attention to this traitor.

Now that Atlas is more filial, the bad idea directly hit the three cyclops uncles.

The Cyclops are natural craftsmen, and their craftsmanship is the best among the Titans. During the battle of the Titans, Zeus released them, and they created the "Thunderbolt" representing the thunder and the "Trident" that can manipulate the sea for the three brothers of Zeus. And a "helmet" capable of invisibility.

Moreover, the combined divine power of the triplets has the attributes of "thunderbolt and thunder". If he can obtain their divine power and convert it into the power of ascension, he can create a thunder god like Zeus.

Although it certainly cannot be stronger than Zeus's power, but in a certain sense, it happens to share the authority that belongs to Zeus.

The more Atlas thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible, and he almost wanted to sign a contract with the Cyclops immediately, but the Cyclops was imprisoned in "Tartaros", which is what we often call "hell".

The body of Tartarus Hell is the son of Chaos, the first god in the chaos, and the same generation of gods as Gaia, the mother of the earth.

Although he does not have a personified entity, you have to weigh whether he is in a good mood when entering his domain.

Because, even Hades, the future Pluto, must follow the rules of Tartarus.

In the mythology, Zeus once gave birth to a daughter named Persephone with his sister, the goddess of agriculture, Demeter.This daughter is glamorous and charming, with a beauty that can overwhelm the country and the city.

By chance, she quietly met Hades, the king of the underworld. For this eldest niece, Hades was so excited that she was astonished for a while.Then he forcibly took her to the underworld and asked her to be his wife.

Of course Persephone disagreed, and even went on a hunger strike to resist Hades.

At the same time, her mother, the goddess of agriculture, Demeter was also looking for her daughter everywhere, but she found nothing. In desperation, the goddess of agriculture was depressed, and even abandoned her duties for a while, which also caused the whole world to become lifeless and barren. .

When Zeus heard about this, he sent Hermes to the underworld and asked Hades to return Persephone.

But Pluto, the old boy, was a very thieves, and he made Persephone swallow the pomegranate seeds from a pomegranate fruit in the underworld in advance.

According to the rules of the underworld, if you eat the food of the underworld, you are a person of the underworld, and you will die if you leave the underworld for too long.

Even Zeus, the king of the gods, could not defy this point.

In the end, they had no choice but to discuss that Persephone should stay in the underworld for three months of the year to accompany Hades.

When Persephone was in the underworld, the Goddess of Agriculture was depressed, so everything on the earth withered, and winter was born; when Persephone returned to the world, the Goddess of Agriculture became happy, and all things sprouted life, and spring came up.

It is not difficult to see how terrifying "Tartaros" is, even Zeus, the king of the gods, cannot modify its rules.

Atlas didn't dare to break into hell casually, but he had to go to hell, so he could only ask his brother Prometheus for help.

Prometheus is knowledgeable and wise, with the ability of foresight, he can always predict certain things that will happen in the future.

However, smart people usually like to keep a low profile and are not willing to show themselves, so his reputation among the Titans is not even as good as that arrogant and reckless Menoitius.

Although Menotius is also his younger brother, he always likes to challenge the authority of Atlas, the eldest brother. He always makes trouble in public, and he doesn't wink at all. Atlas hates this guy very much.

In the past, he even hated Prometheus because he was too weak.

But now that the traverser has inherited this divine body, he naturally clearly understands that wisdom is also a rare power in the world.

It just so happens that Prometheus has this wisdom, and he is also his own younger brother. The so-called "the moon is the first to get the moon", if you don't ask your younger brother for help at this time, who else can you ask for help?
Atlas is a man of action, he will do what he says, and go to find it immediately.

Prometheus is now living in the world. Human beings in this period were humans in the golden age. Because they were very devout to the gods and absolutely obeyed the instructions of the gods, the gods loved them very much and gave them immortality and no emotions. , There is no distress and disease, and life is carefree and free.

But just because there are no emotional fluctuations, they are like decorations on the earth, and there is no special meaning in living. Therefore, one day in the future, Moros, the god of fate, judged them to die.

After his death, his soul turned into a merciful patron saint, wandering around the world.

Atlas used to disdain to get along with human beings, but Prometheus was different. Human beings can always burst out one or two wonderful auras when they are in reverie, which is the "light of wisdom".

Smart people are good at learning from each other's strengths, summing up the strengths of others and making up for their own weaknesses. This is also one of the advantages of Prometheus.

If this advantage is combined with Epimetheus's talent of "hindsight", it is definitely a strategic weapon.

Because hindsight means what has happened before, no matter how complicated it is, there is nothing he can't figure out. If accumulated for a long time, just rich life experience can make a fool extremely smart.

However, because Epimetheus grew up with Prometheus, he relied too much on the wisdom of his elder brother Prometheus, so that when he encountered a problem, he didn't even bother to think about it, and always asked the other party for the correct answer.

Over time, Epimetheus became a foil to his brother Prometheus, and everyone said that Atlas' youngest brother was a big fool.

Therefore, you must beat your brother as soon as possible, so as not to let him develop some messy bad habits since he was a child.

Atlas crossed the mountains and rivers, and by asking the goddess of the river, he learned that Prometheus and Epimetheus were in the Magnesia Plain.

This plain is vast and beautiful, extending all the way to the south, even reaching the west of the Aegean Sea.

Prometheus is teaching the humans here how to identify poisonous plants, and when Atlas arrives, everyone can't help but be shocked by him.

What kind of god is that?
The towering body pierced into the sky, and even the white clouds could only wrap around his broad chest. The bare upper body of Chiguo exposed strong muscles, like the hardest granite, revealing the beauty of strength everywhere.

The lower body is wearing a wine-red short skirt with golden patterns tattooed on it, which is shining brightly under the sunlight.

Every time the giant took a step, the ground would make a rumbling sound, as if the rocks were broken and the landslides were broken, or the sky was shocked and the earth was cracked.
