Ares, God of War

Besides the long table, many seats were set up separately. All kinds of delicious food and wine were still placed in front of these seats, and the number was extremely large enough for all the legions participating in the battle to sit in.

When everyone came to the temple, they only saw Ares sitting on the main seat in the middle of the long table, and Hecate, the goddess of the moon, was sitting on his right. After everyone entered, Ares He let them sit down freely, but at the same time he called out the names of ten people and asked them to go to the long table of the banquet and sit with him.

These ten people are Hercules, Kratos, Deimos, Atalanta, Hera, Hephaestus, Orion, and Apollo and Arte who were called back by Orion. Mis, and Aphrodite who had surrendered to him before.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers and some heroic spirits who sat down in other seats, as well as some gods of the underworld, all looked enviously at the man who was invited to sit on the long table with Ares. of ten people.

These ten people, plus Ares and Hecate, are twelve people, which just fit the seats of the Twelve Gods of Olympus. They guessed that these twelve people will be the new gods in the next era. The twelve great gods who dominate.

But to everyone's surprise, just as everyone was seated, Ares turned his head and said gently and politely to the Apollo siblings and Goddess Leto:

"Apollo, and Artemis, I have a request here."

The twin gods dared not disobey the request of the new victor who has now emerged from the battle of the gods, so Apollo hurriedly asked:

"Ares, what request do you have, as long as it is within our capabilities, we can agree."

"Haha, as expected of Apollo, he is really my good brother, so it will be easy."

Ares laughed twice, then his face returned to seriousness, and he said:

"I hope that your siblings can hand over all your godheads and priesthood to me."

"This..." Apollo frowned, and then asked very tactfully: "If you want to be a god king, two main gods are enough, right?"

"No, do you think I want to be a god king?"

Ares sighed:

"The position of God King will never exist again from now on."

"What do you mean?"

Apollo and his sister looked at each other and asked in surprise.

"Let me tell you a story."

Ares looked around at these own characters who are now gathered in the hall, and then slowly said:

"Where do I start... By the way, let's start with the prophecy that Prometheus told me from the day Zeus devoured the goddess Metis."

Accompanied by the aroma of food, Ares recounted what happened to him during the long time from time travel to the present, as well as his purpose.

I have to say, it may be that he has acted more in recent years. Ares has also discovered a good talent in talking about cross talk, yin and yang, and storytelling. Everyone quickly immersed in his story, and their mood followed His rhythm was ups and downs.

After the story ended, the gods and spirits of human origin, such as Hercules, Kratos, and Atalanta, looked at him with admiration or admiration, while Apollo, Hephaestus, Hera, etc. God, looking at him is full of complicated eyes.

"Ares." Apollo pondered for a while before asking, "Did you forget that you are a god yourself?"

"Really?" Ares smiled and replied, "Maybe it is true, but unfortunately I am not anymore."

"Your behavior is undoubtedly betraying your own race." Hera also said.

"I don't think so." Ares shook his head, stood up, and walked out of the temple.

Everyone got up with him, followed behind him, and went outside the hall together, looking at the bright galaxy that was higher and farther than the Saturn sky.

Looking at the sky, Ares said softly: "After all, our gods are life with no possibility. Although they are powerful and immortal, they have become stagnant, old-fashioned, and old-fashioned. They only want to maintain the old order, and their own Be stable. But if this continues, one day, the world under our feet will come to an end. At that time, everything in this world, whether it is the gods high above, or the ants and insects in the sand, will disappear with this world. , I don't want to do this, so I chose a race that has the most hope of creating miracles and walking out of the future. And I am against the gods, not because of ridiculous hatred, the gods are no longer worthy of being my enemy, and my goal is—— "

He slowly raised his arm, pointed to the galaxy in the sky, and said:

"That sea of ​​stars!"

Chapter 353. Aftermath of the War

Under the persuasion of Ares, Apollo and Artemis finally handed over their godhood and priesthood wisely.

What Ares said is very obvious. For his plan, even if Apollo and Artemis have a good relationship with him, if the Apollo siblings insist on not giving it, they must retain their power and status as the main god. If not, he will directly attack and snatch the godheads of the siblings.

And judging from the strength shown by Ares in the final battle, the current Apollo siblings can't beat him even if they are doubled. , might as well maintain a good relationship with him.

What's more, the Apollo siblings have owed Ares a lot of favors since they were born. Without Ares, it is very likely that Apollo would not be able to come to this world at all.

It is not impossible to use the godhead to repay other favors, and even if there is no godhead, the siblings are still the gods, and they still have the immortal body and almost eternal lifespan.

After obtaining the godheads of Apollo's siblings, Ares did not acquire these godheads alone, as he said.

He even took out Hecate's godhead through some method. Anyway, Hecate has the authority to control the gods, and her power does not come from the godhead. It is a relief for her to not have the godhead.

Now, except for the gods of the underworld, who are not able to interfere with the world, the godheads of almost all the gods in Greece are in the hands of Ares and Hecate.

And after collecting the godheads of these Greek gods, big and small, the master and apprentice immediately began to work overtime. They used the design drawings that Tartarus had already made, and the huge Olympus The various materials stored in the treasury, as well as the power of Ares's magnetic field rotation, directly produced all the remaining machine gods that replaced the twelve main gods of Olympus, and even the big and small gods, on the seven heavens.

Hephaestus was also invited by Ares to this construction process. Although he lost his Vulcan and craftsman godhead, Hephaestus is still the most powerful craftsman in the Greek world, just like Heka Intuit's magic, his ingenuity and craftsmanship do not come from the feedback of his godhead and priesthood, but because he is powerful, so he can master the godhead of the craftsman.

After the three of them worked together, and there was no need to consider the secretive issue, the construction speed of the machine gods suddenly doubled, and the large and small machine gods were quickly completed one after another, equipped with matching godheads, and then followed The established procedures began to meticulously maintain the order of the world in Greece.

At the same time, Ares told the believers and temples of various gods, telling them that everything was as usual, Zeus, the king of Olympus, was back to normal, and Ares did not rebel. Everyone reconciled as before, and the days of Olympus Jing Hao, as for the dead Poseidon, the paralyzed Zeus, and the new God of War Kratos who killed the God of War...

It's all a dream, it's all a dream.

Under the gag order of Ares, people who experienced the turmoil in Olympus, after surviving, kept silent about the matter. When others asked them, they would only smile slightly, although there would always be people who couldn't help it The thoughts in my heart secretly recorded these things and wanted to pass them on to future generations, but the consensus of the public was finally formed.

Therefore, in the perception of the general public in the Greek world, the earth-shattering Olympus battle that night was nothing more than a slightly bigger storm.

As for why the sky was shattered, there was an earthquake, fire and thunder fell from the sky, the sacred mountain of Olympus disappeared overnight, and it became an ocean.

These are just jokes that the gods played with them, small scenes, small scenes.
