The cultivation of the sun goddess

Although he felt very strange in his heart, the one who wanted to meet him was the original god who was in charge of the nether world behind his back, so Apollo couldn't say no.

But before leaving with Hypnos, she warned Zeus.

"At present, it seems that Typhon's power seems to have shrunk to the depths of the earth again. On the surface, this may be exciting news, but now there is no Gaia's seal, so I think we may not be able to underestimate the enemy... ..."

Compared with the Olympian gods who were already immersed in joy, Apollo's words obviously revealed a sense of anxiety.

She is on guard against Gaia.

The goddess of the earth must be planning some huge plan secretly, and even Kronos, who was originally considered by them to be the most favored child of the other party, may be a part of the whole plan, just a pawn.

"Don't worry, we will pay attention!"

Faced with Apollo's warning, Zeus obviously didn't take it seriously, and just waved his hand at the moment, "Go quickly, and come back quickly after listening to His Highness Nix's teachings."

"I will go with you."

Just after Zeus finished speaking, Hades, who also couldn't stand it anymore, directly ignored their request to force him to go to the banquet, turned around and walked to Apollo, "But I think for safety, we still have to change one road."

"Your Highness means..."

Following Hades' gaze, Apollo found that the color of the soil under their feet seemed to be deepening. His eyes froze slightly, and he nodded, "Then let's change the road."

From a practical point of view, the sky is the periphery of the world, and the ground below is the opposite carrier of the earth. Under the earth is the intersection of darkness and night, and the ghost exists in it.

They were originally underground, but they were washed up into the sky because of the eruption of the volcano caused by Typhon's anger.

If you want to go to Nether, you just need to continue walking back along the way you came here.

It's just that Hades noticed something was wrong, and in order to be careful, Apollo naturally agreed with the other party's decision.

But now the reason for changing the path is to re-open a special space channel.

Apollo's divine power has been consumed a lot in the battle just now, and he hasn't recovered yet

Now to open up a space passage, of course, Hades can only do it, and Hypnos can help.

"Although I don't want to say that, my great aunt...she is really narrow-minded."

On the way back, in order to soothe Apollo's tense nerves, Hypnos also spared no effort to draw her attention away, so he brought the topic to Gai, the mother of the earth. on Asia.

"Before this, did Goddess Gaia do anything extreme?"

Compared with the various deeds that Hypnos said about Thanadus being stupid when he was a child, Apollo is obviously more curious about the primitive gods they know.

After all, the target is the primitive god, except for a family like Hypnos who are all children of the primitive god, they don't have too many opportunities to get in touch with the supreme being in this field.

"Of course there are many extreme things, such as changing the candidate for the position of God King completely by one's own will, or forcibly involving marriage in order to balance the power of the gods, or giving favor or punishment out of emotion... "

Asked by Apollo, Hypnos squinted his eyes and recalled it, and immediately slammed his mouth, "I remember that there was a race before the earth. It didn't have a name, but its appearance was somewhat similar to elves. Maybe you haven't heard of it. , because they have already been completely wiped out in the torrent of time."

Although she is said to be the goddess of the earth, Gaia's character is not tolerant.

As one of the supreme beings in this world, Gaia was the first to be differentiated from the origin of Chaos, so she has always regarded herself as the head of the original god.

The Primordial Era was a special period different from the current world.

At that time, it was both peaceful and chaotic, and the rules were not set, so more things tended to be primitive and wild.

The original god has the strongest power in this world, and what it symbolizes is the external manifestation of the origin of this world.

And there is no absolute in everything, not only the calmness and rationality like Nix, but also the attitude and casualness of Gaia.

As the only two female gods among the primitive gods, they are like diametrically opposed mirror existences.

Hypnos touched his conscience, tried to recall Gaia's actions, but still had to say that the goddess of the earth was often willful.

"It was also the hand of the goddess?"

He already knew the answer in his heart, but after Hypnos nodded in response to himself, the corners of Apollo's mouth twitched.

Destroy a race casually, or create it yourself, just destroy it at will simply because you don't like it?

This made Apollo a little speechless.

"That's why I said that compared with that time, the world now has at least 'rules', so similar things should rarely happen."

Seeing Apollo fell silent, Hypnos silently reflected on whether what he said just now was a bit too true, so he wanted to remedy and comfort him.

"Yeah, this can be said to be the inevitable result of evolution."

Softly echoed, Apollo's eyes were a little dazed.

God has great power, there is no doubt about it.

In the ignorant ancient times, mastering power is equivalent to mastering the right to speak.

Habits become natural, and the destruction of the race is good for Gaia, and of course she will not think it is wrong.

But what Hypnos said afterwards was right. Times are changing and rules are being established.

At least in Apollo's view, compared with the ancient times, the gods today can no longer act so recklessly.

No matter how much Zeus struggled after becoming the king of gods, Uranus suppressed the Titans and Cronus devoured the Son of God.

In addition, another intuitive phenomenon is that the power of the gods born in the future will become weaker, so the "right to speak" in their hands will gradually decrease.

Looking at it from another perspective, Apollo believes that the world is curbing the development of the Protoss.

After all, although the gods symbolize the embodiment of rules and the power of nature, the premise is also based on being able to maintain absolute reason and appear in front of the world with a divine aspect.

Unfortunately, the Greek gods... just happen to be a collection of human aspects that are generally greater than divine aspects.

The evolution of the world has ups and downs, and Zeus' overthrow of Cronus can be described as a historical node.

Now after that, with the power of the historical priesthood, Apollo once again felt that the world was at a fork in the road.

"Hey, don't think so much, it's almost there, and I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you through the rest of the way."

Because of the change of topic, the atmosphere afterward was a bit dull. Hades originally wanted to intervene, but because of some scruples, he went back to the completion to deal with the things he had piled up.

The rest of Hypnos accompanied Apollo across the River Styx. Seeing that he was about to approach the Temple of Night of Nyx, he immediately showed a disappointed expression.

"fine."

Shaking her head, Apollo didn't care about being unaccompanied, and as for the reason why Hypnos couldn't enter the temple with her, she only thought that the other party was warned by Nix in advance not to participate, so she turned to Hypnos Sidao thanked, "To be honest, this time it went so smoothly, thanks to His Highness's help..."

Not to mention the great move of the other party to hypnotize them and then let the gods go to heaven, simply sealing the sea goddess Tesis, which has already relieved half of the pressure on Apollo.

Even if Hypnos did not follow, Apollo might not be able to go to the depths of the earth at all, but would be taken hostage by the Ocean God couple to mediate with Zeus.

"Hi, Apollo... you are too kind!"

Suddenly being thanked by the Goddess of Light, His Highness Sleeping God seemed to be blushing, and now he said quickly: "Okay, let's not talk, you go in quickly, don't make the Mother God wait too long, I will wait outside for you to come out !"

After saying this, a pair of wide, pitch-black wings spread out from behind him, and Hypnos flapped his wings and flew to the rock beside him, as if he really wanted to wait for Apollo to come out of the temple.

"Actually, it doesn't have to be like this..."

"Since you're here, come in."

Apollo just wanted Hypnos not to wait for him outside, but another voice covered her.

As soon as the other party's voice fell, Apollo felt a special force enveloped him.

The scenery in front of him suddenly changed, and the space regained its calm after a momentary distortion, but Apollo had already arrived at the depths of the Temple of the Night.

"We meet again, Apollo."

Facing the girl standing at the bottom of the steps, the petite Evernight Goddess calmly said in a deep and elegant voice: "Unfortunately, you failed to complete the task I entrusted to you."

"I am very sorry, Your Highness."

He knew that the other party was talking about Prometheus, the god of Xianzhi, but Apollo couldn't do anything about it.

She has worked hard enough!

Those surviving Titan gods seemed to know what Apollo was thinking, and protected Prometheus so tightly that even Zeus had no chance to attack, let alone her.

"It's not your fault."

Contrary to Apollo's expectation, Nix didn't mean to pursue or blame her, but took the initiative to comfort her.

"You may have some doubts in your heart. Gaia has seen my plan, and this will secretly encourage Cronus to escape from the abyss, which will lead to what happened in the outside world recently."

Seeing the puzzled expression on Apollo's face, Goddess Nix smiled slightly, "Hehe, isn't it strange? Yes, my sister has realized that the world is changing. If you can't grasp the core of the rules—then even if you can't To overthrow, she must also divide the existing power of Olympus, remember the goddess who was born because of the original power of Uranus?"

"Your Highness, are you talking about Aphrodite?"

Seeing Nix nod his head, Apollo frowned suddenly, "So Gaia gave up...Cronus?"

Reminiscent of what the other party said earlier that it cannot be controlled or overthrown, so it can only be divided, and she understands that the day when Eros becomes the main god is not far away.

Immediately afterwards, Apollo thought of Athena again.

The other party had originally had an ambiguous relationship with the Titans, but this time... he uncharacteristically supported him.

So, if Gaia throws an olive branch to the goddess of wisdom, will Athena be turned against by Gaia?

Thinking of this, Apollo unconsciously turned his gaze to the goddess on the throne.

As a result, Nix just smiled slightly.

Seeing this situation, Apollo instantly understood that the other party had already seen through everything.

It's just that it can't be said before or for some reason, or is there a follow-up after that?
