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

During this period of time, he has never forgotten about Medusa. How could a good girl become a famous Gorgon in later generations?

That was just the evil result of Typhon's demonic nature, and Typhon's birth was not only the will of Tartarus and Gaia's fraternity, but also the churning desire of humans on Mount Olympus at that time.

The negative emotions brought about by this desire are the key to giving birth to Typhon, and this desire is also fatal to Medusa.

More than ten years ago, Zeus discovered that as the intensity of the war increased, Medusa seemed to feel more and more uncomfortable.

It should be that human desires began to churn, and the emergence of the military merit system ignited too much desire and killing, stimulating the demonic nature in Medusa.

Fortunately, the war came and went quickly, which made Medusa recover.

But this time?

This time without Zeus's active retreat, the war will continue to break out.

The belief division of the gods needs to be redistributed, the friction between the city-state alliance and Sparta has intensified, and the confrontation between the old and the new nobles is endless...

Countless people are looking forward to the arrival of this war, and they all hope to gain greater benefits for themselves by reducing competitors.

This time the war will definitely sweep Greece again, and it will definitely not end as hastily as the last time.

This time, if there is no external force to interfere, it will definitely kill everyone until everyone is satisfied, or until everyone can't be killed.

"Perseus is also my child, it's too light to use it, it's just..."

Zeus thought about it for a while, as the saying goes, the heavens will send great responsibilities to the people. Since Perseus is young and vigorous, and wants to do great things, then Zeus will suffer for his son.

"Since he wants to be tested, let's give him a test, a test that no one can find fault with, a test that proves that he is my blood."

Zeus intends to give Perseus a chance, a chance to be famous all over the world, a chance to be remembered forever by future generations.

"Do you think people remember the stars in the sky?"

Zeus asked.

"No, it's not easy for most people to have enough food and clothing in this era. Who would remember those meaningless things in the sky."

Athena answered simply.

"Yeah, since that's the case, let's give them meaning."

Since there is no meaning, give it meaning. It is time to give the Greek people a higher pursuit.

Chapter 230 Four Iron-Bone Perseus

The night shrouded Ethiopia, and in the dim palace, the old King Ops finished processing the last document.

Originally at this time, he would ask the maid to bring a cup of hot milk to relieve the fatigue of the day, but it has been several days, and Opps has never drank hot milk, and his spirit has continued to be tense.

"How can I save you, my daughter Androda."

Thinking about his daughter, Opps's head hurts.

As a princess, Androda did not have the right to inherit the city-state, so both her father, Ops, and her elder brother loved her very much, and she was the jewel in the palm of Ethiopia.

But such a girl was chosen to be a girl dedicated to the sea god.

"Bound yourself in a cocoon, bound yourself in a cocoon."

In fact, Poseidon did not ask human beings to sacrifice young girls to "serve" him at the beginning, but Opps felt that Poseidon was also a man. Since he is a man, how could he not like being surrounded by a group of lovely girls?

"Do you think mere human beings can get into my eyes?"

At first Poseidon wanted to say this, but with Ethiopia taking the lead, many young girls are sent into the sea every day, and there are too many of them.

Coupled with the fact that Zeus is not upright, and as a god king, he takes the lead in having sex with human women, then even if they can't control themselves, no one can say anything.

Ops changed the rules of offering sacrifices to the sea god, but Poseidon did not bring disaster, which shows that the other party has acquiesced to this.

Since then, there have been such sacrifices every year, and Ops has seized the opportunity to threaten various nobles in the name of offering sacrifices to the Sea God.

If those nobles are disobedient, they will throw their women into the sea to serve Poseidon.

"Who is it? I didn't even find any traces. Is it really God's will?"

When he learned that the arrow had landed in the palace, Ops was in a bad mood. The sharpshooter was his confidant, and it was absolutely impossible for him to be sentenced, that is to say, the bow and arrow had been tampered with.

Someone asked a magician to make the ultimate goal of the bow and arrow fall on the palace.

Now Opps is doing it to himself, whoever pushes another man's woman into the sea, his woman will also be pushed into the sea like you.

"O Androda, my daughter."

Ops hid his daughter in the palace, but the annual sacrifice to the Poseidon was coming, so he had to bring her to the scene no matter what, and then watched her being pushed into the sea.

He can't overthrow this rule, this matter is his withdrawal, once his daughter is involved, he will break his promise, so what are the girls who were "dedicated" to the sea god before?

Those families who sacrificed their daughters for the city-state, what should they do if they get into trouble?

Of course, Opps is not afraid of a few bastards making trouble, what he is afraid of is that the black hands behind the scenes will take this opportunity to seize power.

After all, the soldiers also have families, and their families may have been selected by Ops to "dedicate" to the Sea God. Once these people rebel and are guided by some caring people, the whole of Ethiopia will change.

"Old man, you seem to be in trouble, do you need my help?"

At this moment, a boy's voice came, and a black figure leaped in from the balcony, and soon came to Ops' side.

"Who? Come..."

"shush"

Perseus put a sword on Ops' neck, although there was still a smile on his face, but Ops knew that as long as he had the idea to call someone, his head would definitely fall to the ground.

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

"It's okay, just wait outside the door."

The guards outside the door heard some movement inside, but fortunately Ops stopped them, otherwise his head might not be able to keep his head now.

"Explain your purpose young man."

Ops managed to calm down after the initial panic. Although he didn't know what Perseus' purpose was, the other party didn't kill him at the beginning, which meant that there was room for negotiation between them.

"Briefly introduce yourself, under Perseus, who is currently the king of Argos."

"It's you!"

Opps was surprised, although he had a good personal relationship with Chrisius, but he would not start a war with the young man in front of him for his death, after all he heard that the young man was also the grandson of Chrisius.

Father's kindness and son's filial piety are just as common as eating in Greece. If you take it seriously again and again, then you will be exhausted to death.

What really surprised Opps was that the other party was so bold and talented, and came to a foreign country alone. Does this young man really not know how to write about death?

"Although Argos is not far from Ethiopia, what made you come here alone?"

"Simple, for the debt between Argos and Ethiopia."

"It's that simple?"

"Simple? Not simple at all."

Perseus looked at the foolish Opus in front of him, and he could only lament that Chrisius was really desperate, otherwise why would he find this old and cunning guy in front of him.

"Ethiopia has the largest amount of arrears, but you haven't been in a hurry to collect it. Instead, you have repeatedly forbearance because of Chrisius' request. Those who don't know think that you are a life-and-death friend."

"Although it's not a life-and-death relationship, Chrisius and I do have a very good personal relationship, so we agreed to the request that the other party has been procrastinating."

"Really?"

Perseus has been diligent in martial arts these years, and he is not proficient in government affairs, and he has only a half-knowledge about financial affairs, but Dana sent someone to do a calculation for him.

"Argos belongs to the city-state alliance. Unless he doesn't want all the conveniences brought by the city-state alliance, he must pay back the money. You don't really worry about him reneging on the debt, do you?"

"..."

Ops remained silent, and the other party did not threaten his life after chatting for so long, which shows his value, and he can listen slowly.

"The loan is not free. The terms you and Chrisius signed clearly stated that the interest that should have been paid to you during the delay period will be counted as the principal. If it is not the next time, it will still be calculated as such."

Twelve months a year, more than ten years have passed since then, with such interest, how much money does Argos owe?

Opps is really a good idea.

"This is a necessary price. Although the reputation of the city-state alliance is guaranteed, everyone's life was difficult at that time. Why should I lend money to Argos? I was the first to take the lead in borrowing money. With me, I stood up to Chrisius Only then can I borrow enough money, and those are the rewards I deserve.”

Ops is not in a hurry now, although there is a saying among the people - the one who owes money is the uncle.

But this principle does not apply between city-states and city-states.

"The city-states that belong to the city-state alliance have great discounts in terms of tariffs, and the purchase of all strategic materials will be cheaper than those of the Spartans, not to mention the oath between the city-states. There's no way Goss would give up that interest."

There is no fear of bad debts between countries. Unless the strength gap between the two parties is so great, the country that has been bad debts will always make the other party pay the price.

"Looking at you, it doesn't seem like you want to use force to threaten me to cancel the arrears. Please explain your purpose."

Ops knew that the young man in front of him was very skilled. He heard that he seemed to have penetrated into the palace alone and killed the well-prepared Chrisius. If it was him...

"I heard that your daughter was chosen as a sacrifice to the Sea God."

really.

Ops cursed secretly, this little bastard really wanted to see him.

The money Ops lent to Chrisius back then was calculated, and he thought that the other party would not pay a penny for more than ten years, and during this period, the money would definitely turn into a huge amount .

When Chrisius has nothing to delay, Ops can ask the city-state alliance to come forward and return all the territories of Argos to Ethiopia.

"What do you want to do? In the sea god's sacrificial ceremony, not only the Ethiopian army, but also the priests of the sea god, not to mention the possibility of offending the sea god, do you really want it to mean anything?"

What Ops said earlier was all a cover. After all, he has seen the strength of the young man in front of him. Even if he really fails, he has the ability to separate the relationship. But the real trouble is that this young man is really ready to offend the gods. ?

"It's just Poseidon. I don't have a good relationship with him, and I don't need him to like him."

Perseus opened his mouth, but that was not a lie.

As far as Perseus is concerned, he is the prince of Rome, and he is at odds with the Greek gods. Since he has this prerequisite, he is not afraid of offending Poseidon.

As for the Poseidon Temple, Perseus has also investigated it, and there are very few priests as powerful as Medusa, and basically no second one has been found, and Perseus is not worried about meeting him.

Even if we do meet, won't we be able to leave if we can't fight?

"You can't reveal your identity during this process. If you can really rescue Androda, then I can cancel all the debts of Argos. Of course, it still needs to be done."

Although it involved his daughter's life, Opps' words were still cold, as if he had converted his daughter's life into some kind of value.

No... Such coldness is the embodiment of love. A king who cares about every penny actually gave up another city-state for his daughter.

The more such a move is made by a penny-pinching person, the more it expresses the greatness of love.

"After you rescued Androda, you can ask Argos to send some stones over. At that time, I will declare to outsiders that they are gold. In this way, it will be considered that you have paid off your debts."

"You can't fool the Minister of Finance like this?"

"This is my business and has nothing to do with you. Even if it is really impossible, I can say that there is an evil magician who turned gold into stone. Anyway, just throw the blame to the magician."

Opps is well versed in the way of officialdom and muddy mud. This ability to shake the pot makes people wonder whether the origin of this person is "non-stick".

"Then the last question, where should I place your daughter? She was taken away by me in front of everyone, and she must not stay in Ethiopia anymore. I am willing to be a good person and send her to a safe place."

Although Perseus sympathized with the princess, he would not do more for the princess. The old Opps sacrificed many young girls for his own benefit.

This Princess Androda is not dead, and she will have no worries about food and clothing in the days to come. Seeing her beloved daughter running around for a living, I think it is enough to punish this old man.

"What are you thinking? My daughter was going to marry you."

"Well, I know... I know the size, do you know what you're talking about, old man?"

Perseus almost didn't turn his head around the corner. Although he was a little psychologically prepared for the father who came down, he still didn't expect that these guys who are fathers really don't behave like human beings at all.

Is it to use it to death because it is easy to use?

"Is there any better choice besides this? Am I going to let my precious daughter live and sleep in the open? And are you really so relieved of me that you don't worry about my breaking my promise afterwards?"

"You... are cruel enough."

Perseus was really pushed back by the Greeks. Compared with the old guy in front of him, Chrisius is amiable.

It's just that what Chrisius said made Perseus hesitate again. After all, with such a low moral bottom line, this old man really can do anything.

"Think about it, you let my daughter go, and then sent several boxes of stones over, and I just didn't recognize these stones, so what can you do? Why don't you give me a free job?"

"Are you not afraid that I will quit?"

"Don't do it if you have the ability. I just killed a daughter. I can also use the city-state alliance to force you to hand over the land of Argos. No matter how you think about it, I earned it."

Of course, this is not the truth of Ops, but he can also see that Perseus is too young and impetuous, and it is hard for this young man to compare him to being deep and old.
