The immortal who travels the world

Chapter 1030 Great career

During this period of torture, Zeus was unable to fully speak clearly to the gods.

Among the gods watching, there was a god holding a forging hammer.

He is Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen,
The offspring conceived by Hera alone.

It is worth mentioning that in Greek mythology, offspring bred by a single sex seem to have defects of one kind or another.

Hephaestus is no exception.

He has a straightforward personality and an ugly appearance.

After Hera gave birth to him, Hephaestus was thrown from Mount Olympus.

After all, the gods are blessed by the world and are eternal existences, and Hera is not worried that the child will be cold directly.

However, this guy was also unlucky. After tumbling in the air for a day, he landed on the island of Lemnos and fell into a cripple ever since.

Fortunately, he was picked up and adopted by Thetis, the sea nymph, and grew up safely.

It can only be said that with a good craft, life will not be too bad no matter where you are.

Relying on his amazing forging skills, Hephaestus successfully returned to Mount Olympus and won the position of the main god.

The main god that Zeus personally canonized, he naturally knows.

When the gods were helpless, Zeus saw the figure of the god of craftsmen.

Trembling, he pointed to the forging hammer in Hephaestus's hand, then pointed to his own head, and gave intermittent orders to the craftsman god to break his own head.

Hearing this order, all the gods thought that the god king was crazy.

But as I said before, Hephaestus is a tough guy.

From his point of view, since the god-king gave the order, then he just carried it out honestly.

Without hesitation, Hephaestus swung the forging hammer in his hand, and under the horrified eyes of the gods, he smashed the hammer towards Zeus's head.

You know, in the Olympus pantheon, the artifacts that can be named are basically created by this craftsman god.

The forging hammer in his hand is undoubtedly a top-level artifact.

Hand hammer down.

Only a muffled sound was heard.

Zeus' head was smashed with a big hole.

This brain hole was so big that the part above Zeus's chin exploded like a watermelon.

It's just that the gods haven't waited for the exclamation.

It was then that a golden light suddenly appeared in that pitch-black brain hole.

It was a goddess wearing a golden battle armor and holding a golden spear, or...the goddess of war.

This child absorbed a lot of Zeus' divine power when he was born, so he was born in the peak state of adulthood.

She has a beautiful figure, and the charm of femininity is revealed like brilliance.

The posture gracefully walked out of Zeus's brain hole.

Although it may be related to the loss of her head, when she walked out, Zeus felt that her head no longer hurt, and under the effect of divine power, it was healing rapidly.

But Zeus obviously didn't have time to worry about his brain. He hurriedly opened his eyes and looked at the child born in his head.

When he saw that it was a goddess, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The goddess who was just born and became an adult said to the gods: "I am the child of Zeus, the king of gods, and Metis, the goddess of wisdom. My mother named me Athena. Bring prosperity and peace to the world."

The gods were dumbfounded.

They don't know what Zeus is doing, let alone why this goddess was born from Zeus's head.

Instead, Zeus stood up and looked at his daughter lovingly.

Then he turned to the gods and announced: "We are going to hold a grand banquet to celebrate the birth of the new goddess—Athena!"

What Zeus was worried about was that the child would be a god, but since it was a goddess, he was not worried at all.

The reason is simple, because the goddess is not qualified to inherit the position of the god king.

Even though Athena's divine power is comparable to that of Zeus, in addition to his own power, Zeus also has a powerful god-king authority.

And very early on, Zeus established a guardianship contract with the three powerful hundred-armed giants, and it was impossible for Athena alone to overthrow his rule.

What no one noticed was that Poseidon, who was standing in the corner, had a subtle look in his eyes.

This god who has mastered the ocean as his territory also has unknown ambitions.

With the passage of time, this ambition has become more and more inflated.

It's just because Zeus's strength is too strong, he didn't show it.

In Poseidon's view, the birth of Athena weakened Zeus' divine power.

If you can win the help of Athena, you may have a great chance to sit on the position of the king of gods.

Of course, Poseidon didn't go up to talk to Athena now, he wanted to wait for a good time.

It just so happened that in order to prepare for the Olympic Games, many things needed for the banquet were prepared in advance.

There is no need to waste time. Under the leadership of Zeus, the gods went directly to the place of the banquet.

At this banquet celebrating the birth of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, Zeus split his Aegis in two and gave one side to Athena.

Incidentally, this Aegis Shield is actually a ceiling-level defensive artifact.

Amalthea, the nymph who took care of the young Zeus, died of old age. When she died, she took the form of a goat.

To commemorate his nurse, Zeus gave the goat skin to Hephaestus, the god of craftsmen, to create a powerful artifact that can resist any physical, magical and cursed damage.

Ok……

Ah!
This curse resistance is a function that Zeus forcibly added.

Although in Lu Yan's view, this kind of operation of skinning his own nanny to make a shield to commemorate is a bit magical, but it also fits Zeus's character.

"so what?"

Lu Yan casually looked at Prometheus standing in front of him, and added, "What does it matter to me that Zeus gave birth to a daughter?"

"Great Lore, I want to ask you to summon Athena."

"She is destined to shoulder a great cause, and the light of reason and wisdom will spread throughout the world like fire."

"At that time, the sky, the sea, the earth and the underworld will all become meaningless, and such a great world needs reason and peace to be nurtured."

Prometheus still had his usual babbling tone, and Lu Yan's eyelids twitched unconsciously.

"Can't you go to her directly?"

Hearing Lu Yan's rhetorical question, Prometheus coughed slightly in embarrassment.

"Master Luoer is really wise. To tell you the truth, I actually looked for her..."

Prometheus didn't finish the following words, but the situation is already obvious.

Lu Yan nodded knowingly.

"can."
