I was a priest in the city-state era.

Chapter 216 I Want Both the Goddess and the Throne

In this era, the spread of civilization is often like radiation.

The closer the backward area is to the advanced area, the easier it is to absorb the civilization and technology of the advanced area.

The Sparta region in the southern Peloponnese Peninsula is more than 200 miles away from Crete.

The Argos region in the northern Peloponnese Peninsula is more than 400 miles away from Crete.

It takes only one day to travel from Sparta to Crete and two days from Argos.

In terms of distance, it is easier for Sparta to absorb advanced civilizations from Crete.

Moreover, in terms of resources, the Argos region is not only backward in civilization, but also has an area of ​​only 2000 to [-] square kilometers. The mountainous territory is suitable for the development of animal husbandry and small-scale agriculture.

Not only does Sparta cover an area of ​​[-] square kilometers, but it is also rich in products, with well-developed agriculture and animal husbandry, as well as iron ore deposits.

In the history of another world, after the Dorians invaded the Peloponnese Peninsula, they established their hegemony based on the Sparta region and conquered the Peloponnese Peninsula and defeated the city of Athens.

No matter how you look at it, the development potential of the Sparta region is far superior to that of the Argos region.

When the Mycenaeans migrated from Crete to the Peloponnese, they gave up the closer Sparta region and migrated to the farther Argos region-the only reasonable reason is that Sparta The Bada region absorbed advanced civilization and technology from Crete, which resulted in the Mycenaeans not having the confidence to conquer and assimilate the Spartans.

"Pandora, you want to use me!"

Roy looked at Pandora and frowned.

"Although I believe that Sparta City has the strength to challenge Donia City, I don't believe that Donia City's strength cannot defeat Sparta City."

"If Donia and Sparta fight one-on-one, Donia can indeed defeat Sparta with all its strength, but Donia still has to face the powerful enemy Knossos. ah!"

Pandora said with a wry smile.

"If you fight against Sparta and Knossos at the same time, Donia will definitely lose to them. Moreover, Sparta has Tenaron in the Pylos area as an ally, even if Knossos does not Come and attack the city of Donia, and the city of Donia will not be able to defeat the combined forces of Sparta and Tenaron."

Tenaron City—

Roy knew that this was a city-state guarded by Persephone, the patron saint of the Pylos region.

The Peloponnese Peninsula is divided by the mountainous Acadia region in the middle. There are four regions in the northern part of the Peloponnese Peninsula, namely the Argos region, the Corinth region, the mountainous Ahai region, and the Great Plains Erie region. Sri Lanka area.

There are two regions in the southern Peloponnese, the Sparta region and the Pylos region.

Hera, the patron saint of Sparta, and Persephone, the patron saint of Pylos, are both goddesses in the southern Peloponnese, so they are not only neighbors, but also a pair of close sister gods.

The relationship between Sparta and Tenaron is like the relationship between the goddess Hera and the goddess Persephone. The two city-states sometimes fight for their own interests, and sometimes they become allies for the same interests.

If the city of Sparta and the city of Tenaron were really united, the city of Donia would indeed be unable to fight against them.

"The hegemony of Knossos City is declining, and there are more and more city-states wanting a piece of the pie."

Roy said with a serious expression.

"Pandora, I don't allow the city of Donia to collect tolls to affect my interests, and of course I don't allow the city of Sparta to collect tolls. As long as you help me become the king of Donia, I will help you solve the problem of Sparta. The problem."

"What I said clearly is that you solve the problem of Sparta City first, and then I help you become the king of Donia City. Do you want to become the king of Donia City now?"

"If I don't have the identity of the king of Donia, what identity should I use to fight the city of Sparta? It is definitely not appropriate for the king of Athens, hundreds of miles away, to interfere with the affairs of the Sea of ​​Thira."

Seeing the determined expression on Roy's face, Pandora said helplessly.

"Then you have to make two promises with me. If I have a child with you in the future, the city of Donia will be inherited by my child. I have not had a child with you, and you and your descendants cannot change Pandora as Donia. The status of the guardian god of the city."

After listening to Pandora's words, Roy said full of doubts.

"You are my fiancée. After we get married in the future, how can you inherit Donia City without children? Don't you want to fulfill your marriage contract and marry me—"

"Even if we get married, we may not be able to have children! After all, you are a human being and I am a god, and we belong to different creatures. You decide quickly, do you want to make these two agreements with me?"

Under Pandora's urging, Roy nodded hesitantly and said.

"I assure you that Donia City will be inherited by your children in the future. Even if we have no children, my descendants and I will not change your status as the patron saint of Donia City."

After Roy finished speaking, Pandora immediately showed a little devil's scheming smile, kicked Radamandis's shoulder with her little feet wearing golden strappy sandals and said.

"Brother Radamandis, stop pretending to be asleep. Hurry up and perform the ceremony of changing the throne, and give your throne to Roy."

Radamandis lying on the ground slowly opened his eyes, looked at Pandora with despair and said.

"Pandora, why did you treat me like this? In the past, you were arranged by your father to marry Deucalion, and now you are engaged to Roy privately. I am a human being like them, and I am also a great hero like them [A Thousand Enemies], Why can't you accept me? Could it be that my brother, who has loved you deeply for more than ten years, is not as good as these men who have known you for a short time? "

"Brother Radamandis, I have always been grateful for your care, and I have always loved you deeply."

Seeing Radamandis showing an excited expression, Pandora continued.

"But my love for you is the family love my sister has for my brother. Brother Radamandis is a better dedicated man than greedy Loy. I believe you will find a better girl than me in the future Be my sister-in-law."

Isn't this the classic good guy card——

The scene in front of him once again made Roy couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

The fate of licking a dog is to lick until nothing is left.

With these lessons learned, Roy will never repeat the mistakes of licking dogs.

"Pandora..."

Calling Pandora's name affectionately, Radamandis seemed to suddenly think of something, and turned to Roy and said.

"Roy, as long as you can promise me that you will not be with Pandora, I will give you the throne."

Looking at the unwilling Radamandes, Roy couldn't help but said.

"Radamandis, do you think that if I am not with Pandora, you have the opportunity to be with the goddess? Even if there is such a possibility, I can't agree to you. Because of Pandora and Donia City The throne—I want it all. If you don’t take the initiative to hand over the throne, I will first make Pandora the queen, and I will rule the city of Donia as the queen’s husband."

"You want all—"

Radamandis was completely desperate and said in a trembling voice.

"I can give you the throne, but you have to make sure you don't hurt Pandora, because she is my favorite goddess and sister."
