Starting from the other world, I joined the chat group at the same time

"In order to welcome our heroes, we naturally need the most beautiful women to offer their bodies."

"Helen? No...you're not!"

Xia Lang stared at the peerless beauty in front of him fiercely, and without hesitation, he put on the Berserker Armor mixed with Fenrir's God Cloth.

As expected! As soon as he passed it on, the greed from Fenrir's microcosm, wanting to swallow the thing in front of him in one gulp, almost confused him!

"God? You are..."

"Helen is the most beautiful woman in the world. The lovely Paris gave the apple to the most beautiful goddess. So who is the most beautiful, Helen or me?"

Helen stood up gently with a perfect smile that was a mixture of holiness and charm. Even though she was pushed to the ground, her perfect body was not stained with a speck of dust.

Xia Lang suppressed Fenrir's greed. He seemed to suddenly remember something and growled at Aphrodite:

"You are...Aphrodite! It has always been you? You gods, always?!"

Hephaestus's coming and going always puzzled Xia Lang. Even if his existence escalated the war, why didn't the gods on his side make any move?

He never thought that the gods of Olympus were so law-abiding. Even in the original Trojan War, even though Zeus gave the orders, they still made some small moves.

"To be precise, I am the only one from Troy who came down personally." Aphrodite wrinkled her white jade-like nose slightly and said with some resentment.

"Woo, I came down here just for you, and you are so heartless~~~~"

"What is going on? What is this Trojan War about?"

"This is our game. To be more precise, it is the end of the story of the Age of Gods." Aphrodite smiled softly.

"The Trojan War, then the Odyssey, and then what? Our myths have no sequel, our stories have no development, so we exist here, absorbing every story that belongs to us."

The goddess of beauty told the biggest secret without any care.

Xia Lang widened his eyes slightly. He actually understood Aphrodite's words, or rather, her divine words made him understand everything.

What he came to was a real "mythical world".

Just like other imaginary works that Xia Lang has visited, the world that Xia Lang has come to is a pure mythological world, a world that is not contaminated by any other elements and is derived from Greek stories.

He is the myth of the source, untainted by any later creation, a world that was created from the mixture of countless stories and myths of the past era and is recognized as the source.

But the Greek mythology did not continue, just like many myths in reality, it was discontinued.

Before Troy, although the Greek mythology still has a confusing timeline, it is still possible to sort out a thread. And the end of this thread is the story of the Trojan War and the Odyssey.

The chapter written by the blind Homer became the last masterpiece of Greek mythology. Just like what Hesiod wrote in Theogony, there are five ages of mankind, and the last one is the Iron Age, which is the age of pure mankind. Gods completely withdrew from the stage of history.

But the actual reason is that the Greeks were completely conquered and ruled by Rome, and their culture was completely taken away by Rome. Zeus became Jupiter, Athena became Minerva, Aphrodite became Venus, and Ares became Mars.

But Roman mythology is not a continuation of Greek mythology, but more of a copy and paste by the Romans. And this is also true, the Romans in the later period often claimed to be Greeks.

This is a victory for culture!

But this did not represent a new beginning for the Greek mythology story. On the contrary, a new religion emerged and completely swallowed up Greek mythology as well as Norse mythology.

The myth of God swallows up everything.

In the esoteric religion, the omnipotent Zeus, the lord of all armies, and Dionysus, whose blood was wine after death, eventually became the so-called Trinity, Jehovah, God, Yahweh, and Jesus! The other gods changed their names and became the so-called angels.

They devoured Greek mythology, Norse mythology, and even Egyptian mythology could not escape their clutches - everyone knows the story of Cain and Abel, but few people know that they had a younger brother named Set, and that this story was completely copied from the story of Osiris and Set.

So, for an orthodox Greek mythology story, Homer's epic is their end.

A damn damn eunuch's ending.

So what would happen if you traveled to a world where myths no longer existed?

Volume 107: Xia Lang's Various Travels: Chapter 103 . [Troy] Origin and Mythology

The myth of Olympus came to a relative end with Odysseus's return home. After that, neither the invasion of the Persians nor the war between the Delian League and the Ponnesian League had anything to do with the myth.

These wars are real wars that took place in history, but subsequent creators failed to add deus ex machina heroes like Achilles to these wars.

It was also during this period that Plato, Socrates, and Pythagoras appeared one after another. In the mythological era, they would have been more or less regarded as sons of gods, but in fact, they were still human beings.

This era belongs to mankind, or according to the narration of Olympus mythology, this is the Iron Age that completely belongs to mankind.

And what does this mean for a mythical world?

"As the world evolves, we will completely lose the ability to interfere with the world." Aphrodite saw Xia Lang's doubts and said slowly.

“Our story should have ended here, but as the source, we can feel that many stories based on us have been extended and developed... It’s really interesting.”

Aphrodite looked at Xia Lang with interest, smiling charmingly and happily.

"Perhaps by accident, after realizing that our time no longer moves forward, the world of one of us becomes a circular Möbius strip. There is no forward, no backward, time will reverse from the moment Odysseus returns home to live a happy life - and then return to the moment when Chronos created time."

"But the gods are not mortals, and the cycle of time cannot completely wash away our thoughts. After all, who let us have an 'omniscient and omnipotent' God King who transcends fate? Perhaps, it is the omniscient and omnipotent Him who has tied our world together."

Aphrodite was full of sarcasm when she said this. The later mythological image of Zeus was the prototype of God, and the setting of transcending fate made Zeus the only one who knew everything in this infinite cycle of world.

It is almost impossible to transcend fate in Greek mythology, but only Zeus did it. Like his father Cronus, he swallowed the goddess Metis, who was supposed to give birth to the fourth generation of gods, but he did not have a son who overthrew him, but instead gave birth to a daughter who inherited her mother's divine position.

Zeus' existence is to beat fate, which is completely different from the Zeus who is humiliated by various protagonists in other secondary creations. In the later period, Zeus in the original mythology has become the only designated extraordinary existence in the entire Greek mythology.

Perhaps you will say the three goddesses of fate, but in fact in the later period of Greek mythology, this king of gods had already been involved in and even controlled the divine power of fate.

Zeus owned a golden scale called "Tarantoon". He used this scale many times in "Iliad" to control fate.

"The Father took out his golden scales and placed two tragic death sentences on the scales, one for Achilles and one for Hector the horse tamer. He lifted the center of the scales, and Hector's side tilted down and slid towards Hades, and Apollo immediately abandoned him."

This is the original text of the Iliad. As early as in this story, Zeus has already begun to play with fate.

Even without mentioning the mystical Zeus, the altar to the omnipotent Zeus had already existed in late Greece. Not to mention mythology, even Socrates' books described the recognition of Zeus' omnipotence. Even Engels' later books described Zeus as the most prominent god.

After all, if not, how could he be worthy of being the original prototype of the almighty 'GOD'?

But perhaps it is precisely because of this that Zeus has the factors to transcend this mythological world.

Knowing everything about this world is not crazy for Zeus, but he has long been silent. He always completes his work, and then leaves behind a Zeus from another world to play himself, while he himself disappears.

Haha, maybe he went to the Roman mythology next door to be his Jupiter, or maybe he went to the Catholic territory and played God.

That is why, after this mythological world became a Möbius strip, the gods would inevitably discover that something was wrong with Zeus in each reincarnation, and then try to uncover the truth behind it all - but it was all useless.

They are not Zeus, and cannot resist the cycle brought about by the world reset, except for Dionysus, who can be said to be the prototype of Jesus to some extent, and often disappears as early as Zeus.

In short, in each cycle, even if the truth is known, the gods are often helpless. Even if the world is destroyed, it will only create chaos again, and then they will start all over again.

They are just a part of the myth.

They can either leave this world and go to another world with their own mythology and become that mythical self, but they are not as good as Zeus and do not have the omnipotent ability to transcend fate. Even if they leave, they will eventually be pulled back by the world that forms a Möbius strip.

Fortunately, these stories are always fresh experiences for them. Since they have discovered that this world that is no longer continuing cannot continue, the gods simply try other ways of playing.

Some, like Hephaestus before them, chose to leave their own world and go to other worlds where they exist. Some even replaced other worlds with themselves.

It is hard to say how many original gods are on Mount Olympus this time.

They observe the works of Olympus mythology in other worlds, control or even capture these elements, throw them into their own world, and then replace the original experience. This is still their power as the source myth world, and their world reflects all other Olympus myth worlds.

Among the many worlds and planes, how many works are based on the Olympus mythology?

There are too many to count! The Troy battlefield this time is just the world they captured from the movie Troy starring Brad Pitt and projected into the present.

This time they decided to watch the movie again instead of playing the role themselves as in the myth.

But until Xia Lang's arrival, the gods were surprised. The presence of this uninvited guest completely disrupted the plot that was supposed to happen, and the gods, who couldn't watch the "movie", simply rolled up their sleeves and started playing the game.

It doesn't matter anyway. It's already the end of the cycle, and many gods choose to give up.

For example, Apollo and Artemis, Hera and Ares, the gods who have been playing badly are already preparing for the next reincarnation, and for the Olympian gods, this game is something they can either participate in or not.

"Interesting... If that's the case, will you gods also be angry about my accident? Just because you are 'insulted' by an unexpected factor like me?"

Xia Lang stared at Aphrodite who possessed Helen and sneered

"Why not? Even if it's an infinite cycle, if everything will be reset, what's the difference between us and the beginning?" Aphrodite showed an extremely charming smile.

"For us, every Troy is a new beginning. We just choose different ways to play and watch our games. And Zeus's departure gives us the opportunity to fight for the highest power, doesn't it?"

"But I find accidents more interesting. By the way, are you wearing the God's Battle Armor? Ugh... it reminds me of some interesting memories."

Aphrodite smiled as if she was gloating, and before Xia Lang could ask anything, he saw the scene in Aphrodite's memory.

It was one of countless cycles. During the Titan War, the Olympian gods learned of Zeus's escape and the truth of everything. After a brief period of confusion, they decided to go and see "themselves" in other worlds.

As the source mythological world, they can observe other 'Olympus' without hindrance, and one time they chose the world of Saint Seiya.

Hades, Poseidon and Athena enthusiastically brought those Saints to this world. Although it was only a projection of the world reflected in the mythology, the power was no different from that of their original world.

They planned to recreate the story of Saint Seiya in this world, but the result was...

The three gods are simply no match for the exaggerated combat power of that world's system!

Yes, the origin myths are indeed very high-end, they are the beginning of the Olympus system, but it does not mean that their combat power is very strong...

Except for Indian mythology, which is extremely exaggerated in itself, the fighting power of the gods in most myths is often not as good as their extended stories.

To be honest, the performance of the Olympian gods in the original mythology is more or less difficult to describe, except for a few who were promoted later. Limited by the gap in the imagination of the predecessors, the settings depicted by later generations are naturally very different.

The three gods who were "suppressed by the setting" were beaten up by the Saints, Sea Saints and Hades Saints. In the end, the chaotic battle threw the whole world into chaos, and they were forced to start all over again.

Because Zeus hadn't run away at that time, but he didn't intervene, he just watched the world return to the first place. Because the Zeus of Chronos retained this experience, and before running away every time, he would leave this experience to the Zeus he left behind.

This approach can be regarded as a way for the gods to understand everything and find new fun for themselves. However, it seems that only Aphrodite found something wrong in this reincarnation.

“The story of Troy is coming to an end, then comes Odysseus’ ten years, and then we all have to start over again.”

Aphrodite's face suddenly became extremely charming. She walked to Xia Lang with light lotus steps, stroked his face, and panted.

"Let us rejoice, poor child, before all is quiet with thee--"

Snapped!

Xia Lang pushed the old woman in front of him away with a palm. He gasped and widened his eyes. The strange fact after knowing the truth made him feel powerless!

Damn it, I came to the wrong world. The water in this damn place is the deepest!

Aphrodite was not angry, but just giggled and tilted her head to him.

"Tomorrow, you will get a surprise~"

After that, she smiled, put on her clothes and left, leaving Xia Lang alone sitting on the ground, and it took him dozens of minutes to calm down completely.

Never mind. Actually, the difference between traveling through a movie and a mythical world is not that big. As long as he completes his mission and can leave, as long as...

However, thinking that everything he did might be fucking meaningless, Xia Lang suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness and bitterness.

I thought it was just a world where gods played games, but I never expected it to turn out like this.

He raised his head, looked at the dry and cold sky and uttered a weak laugh. At this moment, a strong wind blew beside him.

"I am going to kill you!!!"

Paris with red eyes rushed over and punched Xia Lang on the head. He roared with red eyes, just because he felt his head had turned green!

Paris, who was about to find Helen and take her away, just saw Helen leaving in a dishevelled state! His Helen, his beloved, his everything!

Paris's anger has reached its peak because the most beautiful woman he had obtained at the cost of his country and the possibility of becoming a hero was snatched away by someone else. He is also angry at Xia Lang, the troublemaker!

But anger is a useless thing.

Xia Lang punched Paris backhandedly, sending him flying. Paris felt his forehead sinking, and he didn't even have time to react. The severe pain and the resulting brain blankness made him unable to think.

Xia Lang coldly picked up Paris and slapped him in the face again and again!

"This slap is for your performance in the myth. You are a complete idiot and waste in the original myth!"

"This slap is for your stupidity in killing your brother without realizing it!"

"This slap is for a loser like you, who is indiscriminate!"

"This slap is because you recognized Helen's true nature, but you damn well refused to admit it!"

A few undisguised slaps turned Paris' handsome face into a pig's head. After Xia Lang threw him out and knocked down a large piece of firewood, Paris' face showed not only anger but also confusion.

Golden Apple, Aphrodite, Helen...

He felt like he remembered something, but it seemed like he didn't remember anything at all. His mind was dizzy, as if something was gnawing at his soul.

Looking at Paris wailing and writhing, Xia Lang coldly threw out a javelin.

Paris in the original novel is a real scum and waste, but the version played by Orlando Bloom is barely half a human being.
