Zeus does not want to be the king of gods in Greece

At this time, Perseus finally understood why he didn't kill Chrisius immediately, which made the other party more firm in his correctness.

As long as Perseus is bound to Argos, then Dana must support Argos no matter for her own children or for the country she once lived in.

"Old man, do you still want to plot against your daughter when you die?"

"Yeah, since I've failed as a father, at least as a king...don't fail too much."

Chrisius couldn't breathe gradually, the loss of blood made him feel cold, he closed his eyes slowly, a little tired and sleepy.

It's just that in this sleep, he understood that he no longer needed to worry about the uneasiness of power leaving, and he didn't have to bear the responsibility of being a king. In his dream...Will Dana forgive herself?

"do you died?"

Perseus looked at Chrisius who fell on the ground, and looked at the man who was his grandfather, who was now a cold corpse. He looked outside, and some people were looking at the people from outside the ruins. The spectacle seemed to want to know who had won.

"Doesn't this old thing have a son? It's better to pass the throne to a son than to me."

Perseus thought so and then shook his head. With the strength he has shown now, even if he had an heir, he would not want to fight after seeing Perseus' fighting power.

Chrisius has already learned from the past, if he didn't want to die, he wouldn't fight for the throne with Perseus.

"Sure enough, the world is sinister and people have ulterior motives. I didn't do anything to get into such a mess."

Perseus walked towards the crowd while thinking about what to do next.

Chrisius' judgment is correct, Perseus might as well leave such a mess here, and he also believes that the danger that Chrisius said is coming.

After all, he came to Greece to participate in the trial arranged by Juno (Hera), this era is bound to be chaotic, and he also needs to be a chess piece for Rome to counterattack Greece in the future.

Fortunately, Perseus didn't care about the status of the so-called chess piece. After all, Rome was his home, and it was right to pay for his own home.

But Argos used to be Dana's home, how would Perseus explain to Dana how he made this place look like this.

......

"Your Majesty, His Majesty Perseus has sent a letter."

Dana was dealing with government affairs, at this moment a guard opened the door and came to Dana and handed out a letter, which aroused Dana's curiosity.

"What's wrong with Perseus? You've only been out for a few days, and you're in trouble?"

Dana took the envelope and immediately had a bad feeling.

Perseus is powerful, not to mention bandits and horse bandits, even if the phantom species came, he would have to take a detour, but if that child didn't really encounter troubles that he couldn't solve, he would never send a letter back.

Dana opened the envelope, and what caught her eyes was the polite words like "Mother, Your Majesty". As she looked at the contents carefully, her blood rushed to her eyes and her eyes went dark.

"Perseus..."

Dana thought she would be angry, after all, Chrisius was her biological father, but after she finished reading, there was only a kind of emptiness.

"It's fine to die."

These are not Dana's angry words. Dana knows exactly what kind of person Chrisius is. After seeing how powerful Perseus is, Chrisius must have trouble sleeping and eating.

As long as Perseus exists for a day, it will be a torture for Chrisius, in order to escape such torture, to compensate for the exile of Dana in the early years, and to achieve better development of the city-state.

Chrisius chose to follow his "fate" and went to death.

Dana has seen through this point, so she has no mood swings after watching it again, she just laments that "fate" is impermanent, unless it reaches the level of Zeus, anyone will be manipulated by "fate".

"Now Perseus is trapped in Argos, so would you like me to send some men to help?"

Private emotions have been vented, then the rest is business.

Thinking from the perspective of the Queen of Rome, this time Perseus can be said to have made a great achievement. Almost alone, he won the right to claim a city-state in Greece. This is the most important outpost for Rome to counterattack Greece in the future. No matter what, it cannot give up. .

It is impossible for Perseus to stop at Argos. There are still many things for him to do on the land of Greece.

Hera had talked with her back then, and the reason why she wanted Perseus to go to Greece was not a trial, but to disturb the situation in Greece again.

Greece needs more gods, Apollo, Artemis, Hephaestus, Eros...Although they were born, they didn't have enough environment to grow.

The division of beliefs has long been divided up by various gods. Only when the situation becomes turbulent can the new gods gain more believers.

Beat the old gods and support the new ones.

Although there will be a big storm, the Greek pantheon will enter a more stable state. Zeus has been considering a smoother transition method, but Hera doesn't think so.

Now that there is a conflict, it will break out well, and when the number of human beings can no longer continue to fight because of killing each other, it will naturally stop.

Hera's words were high-sounding, but Dana couldn't be fooled.

Although Hera's previous theory is feasible, and there is nothing lying about it, the real trouble is what Hera didn't say.

That's right, directly disrupting the overall situation in Greece and starting a round of shuffling of beliefs will inevitably weaken Ares' beliefs, but Hephaestus is also a child of Hera. In Hera's view, their whole is not Not much to lose.

But Athena, Poseidon, and Hades are uncomfortable, because the entry of the new gods gave up some beliefs, which will inevitably widen the gap with Ares. Under such circumstances, Ares’ beliefs in Rome The advantages are manifested.

"What a woman who is calculating all the time. In a sense, it's great that I'm human."

Dana couldn't help feeling Hera's calculation.

Athena may have seen through the plan to weaken the faith of the gods to support Ares, but she has no better way.

Athena also needs this trial, Hera has Hera's calculations, and she also has her plans.

The addition of new gods will inevitably damage the rights and interests of old gods, but with Zeus on top, it is an inevitable result for them to suffer this dull loss.

Hera pulled Zeus' tiger skin this time, and Athena could only subdue obediently, and realized a truth-join if you can't beat it.

As long as Athena can also enter Rome to play a trumpet, then she is still a vested interest. Besides, in her original plan, she has to establish a good relationship with Perseus, and it is also a kind of wisdom to follow the trend.

"If Argos still has Athena's temple, then the priests in the temple will definitely report..."

Dana thought about the current situation. A mortal has strayed into the chess game of the gods. If she hadn't relied on Zeus, she would have been arranged clearly by now.

"We must get Argos on track as soon as possible before Athena's men arrive."

Dana began to select talents from among the Roman officials and send them to Argos to help Perseus manage the city-state.

Perseus has been practicing martial arts all these years in order to defeat Medusa, and Dana gave him the emperor's art, which may have been completely forgotten by now.

If Athena took this opportunity to send someone to Argos to "help" Perseus deal with government affairs, then it is possible that Perseus would be emptied.

Although the land of one city seems harmless now, with the imminent shuffle of Greece, the faith of any city cannot be lost.

Argos' belief is an important bargaining chip for Perseus at the poker table in the future, and Dana, as his mother, naturally cannot let her son sell the bargaining chip in her hand at a low price.

"Let these people on the list pack their bags and catch the boat tonight. I want them to go to Argos immediately."

Dana draws up a list of people who are enough to help Perseus manage the city.

......

"As expected, there has been a change in Argos."

Athena sat before the flames of the temple, and she looked at the phantom in the flames, which was her priest explaining to her the changes of Argos.

Chrisius died, Perseus came to the throne, and Argos is in chaos today. The priests of the temple thought that they should take advantage of this opportunity to confirm the position of Athena belief in Argos. After all, the new king There are no forces behind it.

In their view Perseus needed the power of the Temple of Athena.

"Don't be so urgent, the temple can send people to help, but absolutely don't mention anything about faith."

The priests of those temples didn't know, didn't Athena know that Perseus was backed by Rome, not to mention, if he was only managing a city-state's internal affairs talents, there was still no shortage of Dana.

Greece is going to undergo major changes recently. Even Dana is aware of this matter. How can Athena not know the reason? The belief of Argos is indeed important, but it is just a petty profit. What is really important to Athena It is an opportunity to enter Rome.

"Assist the new king well, don't be greedy for merit, and do as I say."

"Yes."

The flames were extinguished. Although the priests did not understand Athena's attitude at this time, they did not dare to question the gods.

"It is impossible for Perseus to stop because of a city, otherwise there is no need for him to be worth investing in."

Athena seems to want nothing, which is exactly what Zeus said "free is the most expensive price".

As long as "The Temple of Athena is a reliable object" can be implanted in Perseus's brain, then Athena can help Perseus without revealing her identity.

"Dana will abdicate sooner or later. Perseus is her only child. Naturally, she will be the king of Rome in the future, and she brought back a city to Rome when she was just a teenager. With such achievements, the future throne is almost unshakable. .”

Athena understood that having a good relationship with Perseus would allow her faith to integrate into Rome smoothly.

"Things on the human side have been put on the agenda, so what about the gods?"

Athena thought of Medusa. At this time, as long as she got the approval of Zeus, she could quickly take root in Rome, so the demonic nature of Medusa must be eliminated as soon as possible.

Zeus cared about Medusa very much. If Athena did well, she would be able to please Zeus, and then she would have the opportunity to mention things about Rome.

"Medusa's magic is hard to suppress, is this a coincidence or fate?"

Athena recalled the current turbulent situation, Medusa couldn't suppress her demonic nature at this critical moment, this is too much of a coincidence.

It's just that Athena must solve the demonic nature of Medusa as soon as possible, both in public and in private, and it would be great if it can be solved before the situation in Greece becomes chaotic.

Athena thought so and started looking for Medusa's location.

Found it, in Kothlin's temple.

Knowing the location of Medusa, Athena immediately left Olympus and disappeared into the sky as a ray of light.

Chapter 230 [-] I want to create a world with Illya

After Perseus sent the "request letter" to Dana, he began to try to govern the city-state, and then Perseus came up with an answer—send .

Argos was in a state of poverty after World War I, and Chrisius was not a good woman, and he couldn't cook without rice.

Facing the dilapidated Argos, what he has to do is to rebuild it immediately, and rebuilding the palace, repairing the city and purchasing weapons requires a lot of money. Argos can't spend so much in one go, but every item is very important If you can't be careless, then the only answer is to borrow.

Today, the system of the city-state alliance is not as strong as it was more than ten years ago, but at least this form is still there. Chrisius obtained a lot of wealth in a short period of time through the guarantee of the reputation of the city-state alliance.

But the question is, what is the cost?

It is a huge debt. After the great war that swept across Greece, let alone an island city-state like Argos, even the landlord’s family has no food left. One can imagine how much Chrisius paid at that time. Pay a premium to get what you want.

In order to exchange for this sum of money as soon as possible, Chrisius can start to drain the water sustainably.

This is why the captain of the palace guard will be ushered in in Perseus's contest.

Such a plight of the people is not something that a half-hearted prince like Perseus can solve. Now Dana has sent a professional team from Rome to quickly free him from such a fate of toil.

"Your Majesty, the finances of Argos have been sorted out. The previous king has paid off most of the debts for more than ten years, but..."

"Who else didn't pay back in the end?"

"Ethiopia."

"Tsk~"

As soon as he heard the name Ethiopia, Perseus had a headache. These days, he also learned about the current situation in Greece through those ministers.

The city-state of Ethiopia can be described as the pro, plus, max version of Argos.

Ethiopia is also a port city, but unlike Argos, which hangs far overseas, it is connected to the mainland and has enough territory and mineral resources. It is also the one with the most offerings to the sea god every year.

If Ethiopia comes to collect debts, Argos has almost no resistance.

"Argos hasn't exchanged a penny for so many years, mainly because of the personal relationship between the former king and the Ethiopian king. Now the former king..."

It's here, the fruit of face has expired.

Perseus had a headache. Although he was the grandson of Chrisius, facing such a "filial" grandson, as long as the king of Ethiopia had a normal mind, he would not let Perseus continue to procrastinate. Yes, in a sense, Ethiopia is thankful that Ethiopia didn't fight to avenge the old king.

"However, Your Majesty, we may not have a way to make them give up their debts."

"Tell me."

This actually aroused the interest of Perseus. He has seen that he has no talent or interest in governing the country, but just as Chrisius expected, he cannot let go of the city-state his mother once lived in.

"It's about the sacrifice of the sea god. Something went wrong with this ceremony."

Perseus briefly learned about Poseidon's sacrificial ceremony.

For ordinary slums, as long as the gods are placed in the home, praying every day is enough.

For some people who need to go to sea for a long time, they have to put part of their monthly income into the sea on this basis. There is no requirement for the amount, and it all depends on the degree of faith of the believers.

Of course, those who have shallow beliefs will naturally be punished.

As for a big city-state like Ethiopia, in addition to sacrifices such as pigs and sheep, and offerings such as gold and silver, what is more important is to throw a pure girl into the sea, and the sea will send them back to Poseidon's palace. "Lucky" girls get the chance to serve God.

"In keeping with the principles of justice, Ethiopia decides by shooting arrows."

"Archery?"
