Chapter 800 Sun God
"So, your taste is really picky. You seem to accept blood more easily than wine. Is this the taste of heavenly beings?"
".Roughly the same."
The two of them were talking as usual, but Shangluo's response was half a beat slower. He was comparing the answer with Apollonia.
"I don't know why, but before I drank it, I really seemed to think that drinking blood was more reasonable than drinking alcohol. Was I affected by something?"
【Blood food. Most gods are like this. You will produce blood food]
"Hey, doesn't it matter? I drank it all."
[I think he wants you to drink it before he starts the next step anyway. At this time, drinking wine has nothing to do with drinking blood. Wine and blood are from the same source. They are both the same, but there are some slight differences in the senses. And the wine was as red as a cherry, and it didn't look like normal wine. So what does it taste like? I haven't tried ambrosia yet, even though it is said to be the wine of the gods. 】
"It smells like wine. I've never been able to understand this thing. But if I have to comment, it seems to smell like weeds."
[It is Ambrosia grass, a wild grass that grows in the Acadian mountains near Sparta. Not only can the seeds grow, but even if they are cut into sections, they can sprout from each section and grow a brand new ambrosia grass. Moreover, the growth cycles of the entire population are intertwined and overlapping. In the warm and humid climate of the Mediterranean, they can continue to germinate in December every year. No matter if they are cut by knife, fire or lightning, the entire population will continuously sprout again from the original area. It looks like immortality - so Ambrosia is the 'immortal delicacy and secret wine' used to entertain the gods at Zeus's feast. 】
"This seems quite auspicious?"
[Geely, but this thing is very overbearing. It is an invasive species outside Arcadia. Because ambrosia grass grows and reproduces regardless of season, it can quickly take over the local ecosystem. Whether on the mountains or in the fields, everything is covered with ambrosia grass. Just because of limited natural conditions, it is actually difficult for ambrosia grass to grow wildly in places outside the Mediterranean climate. This thing symbolizes 'celestial food' to a certain extent, and as long as it comes in contact with it, it becomes 'not of this world' - and it dies. 】
"Huh? Then I will die if I drink it?"
[It’s not like you’ll die right away, otherwise I wouldn’t let you drink it. Because after all, it is the secret wine of the immortal world - the wine of secret rituals. Generally speaking, it is a good thing. Achilles' mother foresaw that she would die in battle, so she spread Ambrosia evenly all over Achilles' body. But this is only half of the ceremony. You already know the other half. She soaked Achilles in the water of the Great Styx, and the 'Indestructible King' was established.
[But we all know that it is death. He soaked in the Great River Styx, and his body was no different from the dead. Only the 'Achilles' heel' held by his mother belonged to the living. After this part was destroyed by Apollo's arrow, he was completely dead. 】
"So this ritual is divided into two parts? First use [Ambrosia Secret Wine], and then soak in the Great Styx. You can maintain the state of neither birth nor death, neither increase nor decrease, nor purity nor dirt, and achieve Vajra Immortality. Bad. How come I have seen it somewhere?”
【have you seen? What? 】"Roast suckling pig. You need to brush more oil on the roasted suckling pig, evenly, so that the skin will be crispy and delicious. But no matter how crispy the skin is, there will always be a hole where the razor is inserted, and you won't be able to bake it into a delicious cake. Come on. Because you have to put a razor in the roasted suckling pig, otherwise it will fall into the fire. Is it the razor in the roasted suckling pig? For example, a hook for hanging roast duck can also be used.”
[I said. I am now sure that Alexander cannot hear us. No one could help but take advantage of this, let alone Alexander. His temperament has been known to people throughout the ages, but he can't even take a breath of it. Don't forget that when he encountered "King Solomon's Knot" in Virginia and couldn't untie it, his first reaction was to cut the knot as soon as he got there. 】
"I'm curious, why did Alexander take the initiative to wear armor? What's the logic of his behavior?"
[He has fucking logic. 】
"what?"
[I mean literally, fuck. His mother, Olympias, was a priestess of the Dionysian esoteric cult. It was her job as a priest to imitate the legend of Achilles and imbue her son with an aura of divinity. Alexander was obviously also affected. His target for armor was Achilles, the son of Zeus and Thetis, the son of a god and a nymph, and the champion warrior of the Eastern Expedition. Now it seems that even the way of death is completely imitated: dying suddenly at the most glorious moment of life. 】
"Wait a minute." The smell of alcohol dissipated from the corner of his mouth, and Shangluo suddenly thought, "If they want to become gods, what is their ultimate goal?"
[It must be through the path of Dionysus that he ascends to God and becomes the God King. The secret religion of Dionysus will inevitably follow this path, and Olympias spent her whole life gathering the ritual elements for Alexander - because the characteristic of the Dionysus pantheon is the double horns. Double horns symbolize fertility and desire. The adoptive father of Dionysus, the god of wine, is a mountain god with two horns. The artistic image of the Dionysus Madonna also has two horns. The god Amun, whom Alexander went to specifically seek, also has two horns. 】
"Huh?" Shangluo felt that this family was too powerful from the beginning, but he didn't expect that there was this level.
【This is not over yet. The most important ritual of the Dionysian Esoteric Cult is to tear the bull apart, because Dionysus will be reborn from the blood. Zoroastrianism also believes that the world was born from the flesh and blood of bulls, and Bactria, where Alexander's wife came from, adheres to Persian Zoroastrianism - in Alexander's time, this road to godhood was indeed practiced by them With. In Olympias' plan, she hoped that Alexander would become the universal god-king. Her plan had already succeeded in Egypt, and it was only a matter of time before it was replicated elsewhere. 】
"Then if they succeed"
[You can see the elements. Dionysus and Apollo are united here - Olympias' grand plan, which has both ritual and practical significance. Because this is the universal god-king, the king of the earth (Gaia), the sum of all concepts of human civilization, and is close to the god of human civilization: Ceres. In fact, you can see from the Greek pantheon that the kinship between gods is a metaphor for relative positions. Zeus, the direct ancestor of the line of gods, is the Mother Goddess of the Earth, or the God of Ceres. By then, only the God of Hunting had not yet entered this realm—Alexander had not become the God of the Wilderness after all. 】
"I suddenly have a bad feeling. Does the condition Alexander wants to offer include getting some interpretation elements from me?"
