I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

"Is greed really incurable? Is he so incapable of judging the situation? Greed caused my father to return to the underworld, and I became the king of Troy." Priam thought so, he understood that the current He must bear the fate of the entire city of Troy.

"Notify me immediately, the shameless Greeks have murdered our king." Priam understood that at this time, he must protect the reputation of the old king, and divert the attention of the Greeks while occupying the righteousness, otherwise he would rely on Hero With the appeal of Lacules, if he can't swallow this breath, he can easily organize a large army.

"Calling all the nobles, I want to announce that in order to punish the Greeks for murdering the king, we will prohibit any Greek ships from entering the Black Sea, and at the same time prohibit the sale of copper and tin that can be used to make weapons and armor." Priam calmly ordered to.

'The Greeks would not have been able to send troops to Troy without righteousness, and at the same time would have blamed Hercules for blocking their ships, and their resources for making weapons and armor would have been greatly reduced. After seeing the servant leave, Priam thought calmly.

"Wow~~~Wow~~~Wow~~~!"

At this time, a loud cry sounded from the bedroom, and the newly appointed king suddenly remembered that his queen was still in labor.Priam, who was worried about his wife, broke into the bedroom directly, and saw the safe wife and the child in her arms.

Hecuba handed the child in his hands to his husband, Priam stared at his child, he was very beautiful, his skin was as smooth and white as ivory, his scalp was covered in clusters of blue hair, his eyes were The color is golden like the sun...

Hecuba scratched the child's perfect chin; "My dear, what are you going to name our child?"

"Paris."

"Paris? 'Married with death'? Isn't this too unlucky, why not call him Alexander? As we discussed before..." Hecuba's beautiful eyes were full of puzzlement.

"It's called Paris. As for the reason...you will understand soon." Priam hugged his wife and children...

......

"I said, man, why are you lighting a fire by yourself like you were on the Argonaut when you are in my palace? You will make others think that I am mean to my friends..." Jason wearing the crown said helplessly He stared at Seleus sitting in the garden lighting a fire and roasting meat.

"You know, this is my habit. At least once a day I have to light a fire to cook." Serius carefully spread the precious spices provided by his friend on the grilled meat.These spices were precious, and Serius didn't want to waste any of them.

"You don't need to be so careful, Serius. It's just some spices. I have a lot of them here. You know, there are so many merchants who give these things to me, and what I pay is just some spices. The store is not worth it. And Desalay is expanding every day under my management, and the store is the least valuable thing to me.” Jason took the wine and sat next to Serius, filling two glass of wine. "Compared to your help to me, these things are simply too cheap."

"But we should avoid this completely unnecessary waste, shouldn't we?" Seleus handed Jason a piece of roasted meat, and at the same time took the wine filled in the golden cup. "No matter how you say it, spices are equivalent to gold, and they are very precious things."

"But this thing is nothing compared to my wisdom and your force. I can easily earn gold with my wisdom, and you can easily get gold if you want, but you don't care about it all the time." Yia Song touched his wine glass with the one in Serius' hand, and gulped down the expensive drink like drinking water.

"Your Majesty the King!" Jason's herald suddenly ran over. "King Agamemnon sent his envoy to visit you, saying that he has something important to discuss."

"King Agamemnon? He came to see me for something? Serius, would you like to go with me?" Jason put down the wine glass in his hand.

"No need, just come and tell me if you have anything to do." Seleus tore the barbecue and waved his hand at Jason.

"Fine..."

Chapter 61 Shadow of War

On Mount Olympus, the wedding of the sea goddess Thetis and the mortal hero Peleus was grandly held.Almost everyone on Olympus was invited to the wedding, except for Eris, the goddess of strife.Who would want to invite the goddess of strife to the couple's wedding?But this situation of being neglected undoubtedly angered the sensitive heart of the goddess, so she decided to use a special gift to spoil the feast-a golden apple with the words 'for the most beautiful goddess'.

"Golden apples for the most beautiful goddess?" Hera was the first to discover this special gift. "Of course it would be me, what a lovely gift."

"It's a bit premature." Athena noticed the situation here. "It says 'most beautiful,' not 'most queen-like.'"

"That's right!" Aphrodite noticed the abnormality here. "It's 'the most beautiful goddess' not 'the smartest', so this should be a gift for me."

"Really?!" ×2

The eyes of the three goddesses seemed to burst into sparks, and a fierce dispute broke out.

As the king of gods, Zeus felt that he needed to maintain the order of the wedding. You must know that this was the wedding of Thetis, and the protagonist should be the couple, not the three demented goddesses.

"Enough!" Zeus stretched out his hands to stop. "The three of you are only invited to the wedding, please be polite to the gods?"

Zeus' words did not achieve the effect he had imagined, and Hera gave him a light glance; "Okay! Who is the most beautiful? As long as you say it, this quarrel will lose its meaning."

Zeus suddenly regretted wading into this muddy water. Facing the three pairs of eyes staring at him, he felt that his cold sweat was about to flow down.He didn't want to answer such a tricky question, especially if Hera was involved.

But Zeus is worthy of being Zeus, and he quickly thought of a way to get out: "I can't answer this question, because among you are my wife and daughter, and... (Hera: Um~) No more! Yes, because of my wife and daughter, it would be unfair to anyone I answer. So, why don't you choose a referee from among the others present?"

After speaking, Zeus stepped aside, exposing all the gods in the wedding ceremony to the eyes of the three goddesses.

'The damned old bull! ! ! 'The gods cursed silently in their hearts.

Hermes winked at Apollo immediately, and the sun god understood, and roared: "Hermes! I haven't settled the account with you last time!" Hermes immediately turned and ran away, while Apollo He hurriedly chased after her, and by the way, also dragged away the silly elder sister Artemis who wanted to watch the excitement.

Hades and Poseidon hung shoulder to shoulder and ran to the bottom of the pillar, pretending to study the pattern there.

Hephaestus silently put the blindfold on the other and just sat there pretending to be a statue.Dionysus covered his head with a barrel and fell to the ground like a drunken drunkard.Thetis kissed her husband.Hestia...

In the end, the most conspicuous thing on the court was Ares, who hadn't figured out the situation and hadn't been reminded yet.

"How about Ares?" Aphrodite suggested. "Of course not!" This proposal was obviously impossible to be passed by Hera and Athena.

"Then who do you want to be the referee?" Aphrodite was a little unhappy. "But you have to understand that no matter how much you delay, the most beautiful goddess will only be me."

"Then let the most powerful hero among mortals be the judge, and Serius and Hercules will discuss it." Athena suggested that this is undoubtedly in her best interest, because both heroes owe with her love.

"No!" Zeus objected, how could he let his most proud demigod son get involved in such a thing.But facing Hera's eyes, he really couldn't tell the reason.

"Since it is the selection of the most beautiful goddess, how about letting the most handsome mortal male be the referee." Seeing that this farce was about to affect Seleus, Hades couldn't sit still, and he decisively helped the poor Zeus a handful.

"Yes, yes, since it is the selection of the most beautiful goddess, the corresponding most handsome male must be the judge..."

......

"Selius! Serius!" Jason ran over panting, grabbed the jug and poured it into his mouth.

"Be careful, don't choke." Seleus was cleaning the grill beside him. "What's going on? Does King Agamemnon want to ask you for something?"

"War is coming! An unprecedented battle. That King Agamemnon wants my Desarai to send soldiers to follow him to conquer Troy." Jason drank all the wine in the flagon, with a strange expression on his face. anger. "It's only been a few days since my people got rid of my incompetent uncle, and they just had a good life under my leadership. How could I let them go to the battlefield to die!"

"Is that King Agamemnon very powerful? Why did he order you, King Desarai, to send troops to follow him?" Seleus was a little puzzled.

"It's nothing more than a selfish and arrogant trash, relying on Achilles' bravery to become the king of kings, an idiot who wants to be called a god in the mortal world!" Jason spat in disdain . "My incompetent uncle was afraid of King Agamemnon's power, so he took the initiative to run over and become a vassal before he came to fight. Now, as long as there is a legitimate reason, the whole of Desarai, including me, the king Follow the orders of King Agamemnon."

"Do you need my help?" Serius stood up and patted Jason on the shoulder.

"No! Serius. I told the megalomaniac emissary, 'My people are poor people who were persecuted by my uncle, and my soldiers also need to stay to protect my country and wealth. I ask the great King Agamemnon showed kindness to pity my people, and in return, I am willing to give three ships of gold as military expenses...'" Jason spit again after speaking. "The emissary gave me the look of a fool before he left, but how can those fools who only have gold in their eyes understand the strategy of a wise man. Gold is just a dead thing, and the people are the most precious wealth of a king. As long as there are people who are willing to follow My people, gold is something that will be earned back sooner or later."

"However, that megalomaniac is quite capable. All the countries in Greece were moved by him and agreed to send troops together to form a coalition army with 1000 ships." Jason sighed a little again.

"A coalition of 1000 ships? They will wipe out that hapless country. Why did King Agamemnon start a war?" Seleus couldn't sit still, so many soldiers went to attack a kingdom, How many innocent people will die.

"I heard that the fuse was a woman, but women are definitely not the main reason for this war. King Agamemnon has long been dissatisfied with Troy's order to prohibit trade. He wants Troy's land and resources. The matter of this woman Just gave him an excuse."

"No!" Serius began to pack up and salute. "I'm going to stop this and at least try to minimize casualties as much as I can."

"Of course you are going! Seleus!" Athena suddenly appeared in Jason's palace. "I want you to join the coalition of Greece and teach the Trojans a lesson..."

Chapter 62 The God of Seeing

In the palace of Desarai, Seleus stared at a white horse that fell from the sky.Seleus didn't know how to deal with this Pegasus who obviously had a mind, and Pegasus looked at Seleus who was similar to it in a daze, and couldn't help but raise his leg to compare with Seleus's arm.

"Hey! Brother, would you like some barley?" Seleus was the first to break the eerie silence. "I know you were sent by Master Poseidon to drive me to the Trojan battlefield, but it's not my style to let guests from afar go on empty stomachs. We can go to the kitchen to find some barley to fill your stomach. .but before that..."

"Can you get off my friend Jason first?" Seleus looked at Jason who was trampled by the pegasus, his hands were trembling. "Although he spoke badly to Lord Poseidon, brother, you have already punished him. Moreover, he seems to be unable to hold on..."

......

"Lord Athena! I'm going to stop this war. This unprecedented war will take so many lives! Troy will be burned by the flames of the Greeks. Old people, women, children, who have no self-preservation Those with weak abilities will be slaughtered wantonly! I can't..." Facing Goddess Athena's request, Seleus tried to refuse.The Greeks already had a huge advantage, and if he was required to join in, the destruction of Troy would become inevitable, but before Seleus could finish speaking, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, interrupted him.

"This is not just a matter between mortals, Seleus!" Athena no longer had the confident smile on her face, and she became very serious and angry. Seleus had never seen such a situation. athena. "Achilles has led the Greek soldiers to destroy the temple of Apollo, the sun god, killed his unarmed priest, and even snatched the daughter of the high priest. The angry Apollo has personally ended to the arrogant Greeks God's punishment has been sent down, this battle has already involved the gods, it must be fought, and there must be a winner!"

"Now! I order you to join the Greeks, not only because you owe me a request, Hephaestus, who was requested by Thetis, also wants you to protect the life of Achilles in this battle " Athena's words contained a strong will, and Seleus covered his right eye in pain.Whether it is Athena's request or Hephaestus' request, he cannot refuse, and he understands that it is not Hephaestus who issued the will of the gods for him, but Athena who used the request. It should be the result that Lord Hephaestus strived for.

"Hurry up and get ready! Poseidon's war horse is coming to pick you up soon." Athena turned around and wanted to leave, but she saw the tall man who had been standing upright, who had no intention of facing the dragon, sitting in pain. On the ground, she felt sorry for this unparalleled hero who made her cast too many eyes. 'That's all' Athena sighed silently in her heart.

"The war between Greece and Troy is inevitable. As Jason said, Agamemnon wanted Troy's land and rich resources. Even if you stop this time, the war will happen again sooner or later. Let's fight." Athena came to Seleus and squatted down, raised her hand to stroke Seleus's red hair. "You are here this time, but what if you are delayed by other things next time? It's better to join this battle while you can still intervene, and you can do your best to reduce unnecessary deaths."

"That is to say, as long as the result is that the Greeks win?" Seleus heard the hope from the goddess' words, and his right eye lit up.

"At least for me." Athena looked into Seleus' eyes, and then disappeared before Seleus' eyes, leaving only Seleus who was thinking hard about the way to break the situation after being prompted.

"But what are you going to do?" Jason, who was frightened by the face of the Goddess of Wisdom, didn't dare to breathe. He tried to reduce his sense of existence when Athena gave the order, and he didn't let go until the Goddess left. tone. "We know very well what kind of virtues Greek soldiers have. As long as they win, massacres and looting are unavoidable, and in order to win the hearts of the people, the kings will never stop these behaviors, and they will even fight for gold. Silver treasures and slave beauties join in."

"I'm trying to figure out a way!" Seleus tapped his head, trying to use this method to make his brain spin. "Don't you claim to have wisdom that surpasses the gods? Hurry up and think of a way!" Serius, who racked his brains and couldn't think of any way, said to Jason, who was drinking and being overwhelmed.

"Although it's a fact that I have wisdom that surpasses the gods, I'm still just a mortal. My vision limits me to think in a mortal way." Jason took a sip of his wine and said indifferently. "This matter can only be answered with the way of thinking of a god. How can you let me, a little mortal, answer?"

"But the question is which god should I ask?" Seleus was a little helpless, he knew that it would be useless to ask the gods on Mount Olympus. First of all, they probably didn't know, and the only one who might know would not now. tell him.

"Isn't there still a god of foresight? The Titan god Prometheus who was saved by Hercules." Jason reminded Seleus, this is Jason's pride, and the whole of Greece has no Any mortal would know Hercules better than he, and he now intends to know Seleus better than any mortal in Greece.

"But how do I find it? I used to know that Prometheus was locked on the Caucasus Mountain by Zeus, the king of gods. But now where do I go to find this human god?" Seleus was in a bit of trouble again.

"What's the matter with you? Isn't Poseidon's war horse coming soon? Although we don't know about the gods, Poseidon will definitely know." Jason pushed Seleus's hand away suspiciously. Hair, I want to find out if there is any wound on it that has affected my friend's wisdom.

"Can this work? The purpose of the horses sent by the sea king Poseidon is to allow me to join the Trojan battlefield faster."

"You have to try to know if it works, right?" Jason didn't find the wound, but he confirmed that Seleus's wisdom is still there through his friend's words, but he is too honest. "And we can bribe the war horses that came, because I heard that these war horses are the sons of Poseidon. I really don't know what a god is and what..."

"boom!!!"

Facts have proved that in the age of gods, never speak ill of the gods behind their backs, especially when you can't tell if the gods are paying attention to you.Seleus stared dumbfounded at Jason who was kicked into the ground by the white horse falling from the sky, and watched him stretch out his hand tremblingly from the pit.

The white horse snorted, glanced disdainfully at Jason under its hooves, and began to look for the target it needed to transport this time, but when it saw the tall and strong Serius in front of it, two The beautiful eyes obviously widened a lot.

"Hey bro. Want some barley?" Serius tried to talk...

Chapter 63 Seleus on the Road

"Brother! Do you think we look strange now?" Although Seleus, who was riding on the back of Pegasus, was excited by flying in the sky, he had to think about the situation at this time. Image problem.

Seleus was a tall and unusually muscular warrior.Although Tianma is Poseidon's god horse, except for a pair of white wings, its body shape is no different from that of ordinary war horses.Therefore, their current image is extremely funny, and people can't help but think of a humanoid Gundam riding an evil animal.

Tianma snorted in displeasure, did this big guy think it wanted to do this?If this funny scene is seen by other guys, its long life will lose its meaning in an instant, and it can't help but commit suicide, okay?

"Brother, it seems that you don't like the image of the two of us, and you don't want to be seen by acquaintances, do you?" God knows how Seleus could read a horse's emotions and thoughts from its face, but this Undoubtedly, it is extremely beneficial to Seleus, because he can use this to negotiate with Tianma.

Tenma grunted twice, agreeing with what Serius said.To be honest, it doesn't want to come, after all, wouldn't it be nice to just stay at home and enjoy it?But who let it have the most experience of being loaned out and run the fastest?It's also pretty helpless.

"Then can you take me to find Prometheus? As long as you take me to find him, I will jump directly from the sky when I arrive in Troy. No mortal will see this funny posture of you and me. "Selius took the opportunity to propose, he felt that since Tianma cared about his image, he would definitely consider his proposal, who wouldn't want to achieve a win-win situation?

Tianma thought for a while, and seemed to think that this proposal was very good, so he changed direction and accelerated to fly...

......

"Pegasus turned, and looked at its direction, the child is going to the residence of Prometheus." On Mount Olympus, God King Zeus sat on the throne and said to the gods beside him.

"Looking for Prometheus?" Poseidon, holding the trident and glaring at the walls of Troy, was a little surprised. "Why did that kid go to that cunning guy? Isn't his mission now to kill those damn Trojans?"

"Why don't you ask Athena and Hephaestus? One is the one who has been closest to this child during this time, and the other is the one who has spent the longest time with this child." Hermes lay on the floor of the palace , put his legs on the pillar in a very disfigured manner, and suggested casually while repairing his nails. "If I had known that Athena had a request that Serius could never refuse, I would not have participated in this gamble. Because it is boring to determine the result in advance."

"Bang!!!" The meaningful words of the envoy Hermes angered Ares on the side, and God of War slapped the table with all kinds of food for fear of smashing it. "Do you think you've won? You unwarranted thief!"

"I didn't say that, maybe when Seleus split the wall of Troy, he accidentally fell and fell on his head on a stone that was blessed by one of us?" Hermes' tone was full of enthusiasm. Ridiculous, this made Ares even angrier.

"Apollo! Say something, too." Ares was furious and couldn't speak to Hermes, who was eloquent, so he had to seek help from his companions.

"I have nothing to say. And it's none of my business who wins or loses." The handsome Apollo played the harp while perfunctory his companions. He joined Troy's side only because of his temple and Paris for two reasons.Now that the temple has been destroyed by Achilles, the only object of his attention is the beautiful Paris. As long as Paris is safe, he doesn't care what happens to Troy.

"How could you do this! We made an agreement..." The gods on the side smiled and looked at Ares's angry and ugly face. Ares wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zeus who couldn't stand it.

"Enough!" Zeus' majestic voice sounded in the temple. He glared at his two sons. One is stupid and has no brains and is always used as a gun by others, while the other is smart but provokes troubles among the gods. Son.He felt that as a father, he had broken his heart for these two sons.

"Athena, what do you think this child wants to do with Prometheus?" Zeus wanted to ask Celeus' purpose clearly so that he could make arrangements in advance no matter what happened.

"Don't worry! This kid just wants to know a way to protect the lives of most people in Troy." Of course Athena knew what her suspicious father was thinking.

"Really?" Zeus stared into Athena's eyes, and Athena looked at each other without hesitation.

"In this case, should we bet on whether this child will return Poseidon's war horse?" After confirming the authenticity of what Athena said, Zeus proposed a gamble in order to ease the relationship.

"Then I'll bet that Seleus will return the horse." ×2 Athena and Hephaestus, who had been pretending to be a statue, said in unison, and Hestia's smile also showed his attitude.

"Me, me, me! And me! I also bet that Serius will return the horse." Artemis, who reacted a little slower, raised his hand quickly.

The establishment of a game requires opposing ideas, and a game with only one option is not interesting at all.

"I bet he won't..." The angry Ares resolutely wanted to stand on the opposite side of Athena, but before he finished speaking, he was really looked down upon by his naive Afro Dete covered her mouth.

Except for a certain naive who doesn't like to use his brain, all the gods knew the result of the game from the attitude of the four goddesses. Just like Hermes said before, the game of knowing the result is meaningless, especially for himself. If you don't want to lose.The remaining gods chose to abstain without exception, and the gamble initiated by Zeus was over...

......

He was a titan who joined Zeus in the battle of Olympus.He turned his back on his kind without hesitation, just because Zeus could bring a better future than Cronus.

He made people according to the appearance of gods. He loves these weak lives. He taught humans the knowledge of farming, how to make boats and sails... He will give everything that is useful to humans and can make humans happy. to humans.But this time, humanity needs fire from the gods.

He is a foresighted person, how could he not see his tragic experience after obtaining fire for mankind?But resolutely embrace the destiny of mankind.

Fortunately, the great hero Hercules who completed the twelve trials ended his endless torment, but even if Prometheus regained his freedom, the shackles of Zeus turned into a stone ring between his fingers, Forever reminding him of his inescapable sinner identity...

He thought that he would spend the rest of his life slowly in the mountains and forests that no one knew about, but he never thought that he would welcome a special visitor on this not-so-special day...
