I was a priest in the city-state era

In 1600 BC, the world's population was only about 35 million.

There is no doubt that this was an era with few people and a lot of land.

Therefore, the Arzavas not only did not oppose Bellerophon and the Mycenaeans who followed him to migrate to the Lydian region, but even welcomed it.

Because in their view, as long as the Mycenaeans led by Bellerophon were assimilated and absorbed, the strength of the Arzavas could be strengthened.

Also in this era, Teucer led his followers to migrate to Mysia in the Troy region. Because they abandoned the patron saint they worshipped in the past and worshipped the god Simeonthos Apollo worshipped by the local Palaeans as the new patron saint, they integrated well with the local ethnic groups.

But in this era, not all ethnic groups were willing to integrate with the locals, or even be assimilated by the locals.

The ancient Aryans who migrated to the Anatolian Peninsula 3000 BC not only refused to merge with the locals, but also regarded themselves as wolves on the grassland and the local farming people as sheep, believing that the local ethnic groups should be conquered or even enslaved by them.

For such foreign ethnic groups, no local ethnic group would welcome them.

As the spiritual totem of the ancient Aryans, the God of Thunder is undoubtedly their symbol.

If Bellerophon had told the truth that their patron god was Zeus, the God of Thunder, at the beginning, the Arzavas would have recognized that they were barbaric - descendants of the ancient Aryans who had a blood feud with the ethnic groups that worshipped the goddess of the earth.

It is completely understandable that Bellerophon lied to survive and disguised Zeus as a goddess.

But this was obviously a deception of the Arzavas.

The city of Apas.

The palace.

Iobates' face showed an extremely angry expression.

At this time, what Iobates could not tolerate more than the truth that Bellerophon and his followers worshipped the god of thunder was Bellerophon's deception and fooling him.

"These barbaric and shameless nomads are born with bad characters of lying, stealing and robbing."

Iobates gnashed his teeth and said.

"Your Majesty, the great Emperor of Athens, I want to make a request to you. As long as you help me eliminate Bellerophon and his followers, I will marry my daughter Philonoe to you and make the Arzava region a part of the Athenian Empire."

"Yes!"

Roy said with a smile.

"In fact, even if you don't make this request to me, I will eliminate Bellerophon and his followers. Because worshiping Zeus is their unforgivable original sin."

The day after reaching an agreement with Iobates.

Roy's large fleet left the port of Apassa and headed for the Lydian region.

Roy himself did not go with the fleet, but went to Mount Hypyros in the Lydian region alone.

In the mythology of another world, Dione is the goddess of Mount Hyperos.

That is to say, Zeus's mother Dione, as a goddess of the Lydian region, lives in Mount Hyperos.

Roy came to the mountainous area of ​​Lydia at great speed and soon found the Temple of Dione on the top of Mount Hyperos.

Walking into the Temple of Dione, Roy was surprised to see two goddesses working hard in the Temple of Dione.

The two goddesses knelt beside two wonderful looms, weaving beautiful robes for the gods with purple threads.

One of them is a goddess with black hair and black eyes, with a face and figure very similar to Aphrodite and Istanus. She is the earth goddess Hecate of the Arzavas, who was split from the ancient earth goddess.

The other goddess is the blonde Dione. Although she wears the robes of a goddess and the ornaments of a goddess, her tall figure and strong arms make her look not cute at all. She is the mother of Zeus, Dione, dressed as a woman.

When Roy observed the two goddesses, the two goddesses also saw Roy.

"Who are you?"

Hecate asked curiously.

"You can set foot on the peak that humans cannot reach. You must be a god disguised as a human! What is your purpose in coming to the temple of my sister Dione? Do you want to pursue the beautiful goddess Dione?"

Ugh-Ugh-Ugh-

Hearing what Hecate said, Roy immediately couldn't help vomiting.

It's okay for Hecate to treat Dione as a sister.

She actually suspected that Roy was a pursuer of Zeus's mother Dione, which made Roy a little unbearable.

"Beautiful goddess Hecate, even if I come to pursue you, I can't pursue Zeus, the male god."

After responding to Hecate, Roy teased Zeus's mother Dione.

"Zeus, how long are you going to pretend to be a goddess? Have you really liked the feeling of being a woman after pretending to be a woman for so long?"

Facing Roy's ruthless ridicule, Dione immediately threw away the spinning thread in her hand and stood up expressionlessly.

"You hateful Satan [devil], you have already destroyed so many of my clones, and now you want to destroy Dione [Zeus] in the Lydian region?"

"Zeus! Do you think you are an innocent victim?"

Roy sneered.

"During the migration of the ancient Aryan branches, you ruthlessly destroyed many local gods. Your priests were so proud of themselves that they made up a story about killing the goddess of the earth for you."

Dione said with a teasing sneer, with lightning in her eyes.

"You stupid human being, now you have made a stupid mistake. The Lydia region is my territory, and you cannot summon the goddess of the Athenian Empire here. Don't think that because you have become a heroic god, you will fight against us. With the power of a god, I will kill you, a hateful human being, and make you regret appearing in front of me alone."

Wherever the Athenian army is, it is the territory of the Athenian Empire, and Loy can summon any goddess from the Athenian Empire to come.

But Roy came to Lydia alone and was obviously unable to turn this place into the territory of the Athenian Empire, let alone summon the goddess of the Athenian Empire to come to Lydia.

Seeing that Dione wanted to use this golden opportunity to eliminate herself, Roy said with a smile.

"I've longed to be able to fight you personally instead of relying on the goddess's protection."

"You arrogant human being!"

Rumble--Rumble--

Rays of lightning burst out from Dione.

Under Hecate's wide-eyed gaze in disbelief, the originally heroic goddess Dione transformed directly into a blond and blue-eyed male god.

"You...you...you are really a male god. You deceived me..."

"Dear Hecate, I didn't mean to lie to you."

Zeus immediately explained to Hecate.

"I came to this strange land, and in order to make you accept me, I used white lies to disguise myself as a goddess. I am very grateful for your acceptance of me, so I will treat you as a sister and share my love with you. possession of authority.”

"What authority do you have?"

Roy said with a sneer.

"Are you asking your priests to make up myths, portray you as the king of the gods in the myths, and then let Hecate share authority with you in the myths? Poor Zeus, not everyone is willing to live like you In the false myths you make up, because false myths can never change reality.”
