[Greek mythology] Born to be arrogant

The plague has been going on for a long time.

Fortunately, although the scope of this plague is large, its effect is not strong.Every day, half-dead people were carried to the gate of the elders' house to protest, but there were very few people who actually died of the plague.Apollo couldn't trust Xiaotuanzi, so he went to find the herbal medicine that could cure the plague by himself.Diana was still wrapped in a black cloak and wearing a silver mask, and she was wandering the streets and alleys of Argos holding the white tender ball that was thinking hard in her hand.

The Grim Reaper is still hovering over Argos, holding a huge scythe, harvesting human souls, but with little gain.

Diana meets the plague god again.

At that time, the God of Plague was sitting on a dilapidated city wall, looking far to the east, with a thoughtful expression.Diana followed his gaze, which happened to be in the direction of Miletus.She jumped up the city wall with Xiaotuanzi in her arms, and sat down next to the God of Plague: "Long time no see."

The God of Plague moved aside calmly: "As I said, stay away from me, and I will bring you bad luck."

At first, I thought Eros's phrase "It's unlucky for Apollo to fall in love with anyone, and it's even more unlucky for him to fall in love with him" was just a joke of the little Cupid, but after experiencing so many things, the God of Plague had to doubt that this joke has changed. became a curse upon him.

He will not stop loving her, the only thing he can do is to stay away from her as much as possible.

Diana rubbed the little dumpling in her arms, and added some strength.

Xiaotuanzi groaned, covered his head and looked pitifully at the God of Plague, sobbing a few times: "My lord, what is the source of this plague? I've been trying for a long time but I can't find it, blah blah... "

The God of Plague turned his head, and a touch of tenderness floated in his dark golden eyes: "Do we have to find the source?"

"Yes!" Xiaotuanzi nodded vigorously, "If the source cannot be found, it will be difficult to cure the sick!"

The God of Plague let out a soft "huh", and the tenderness in his eyes became more intense: "You want to end this plague, but I am the God who cast it. Isn't it ridiculous that you come to me for a solution? some?"

Xiaotuanzi curled his lips: "That's not it. If you really want these innocent people to die, they won't survive three days. The person you really want to punish has already been punished, right?" He looked at Diana With a glance, he stretched out two little fingers and hooked the corner of the plague god's clothes, "Tell me, okay?"

It took a lot of effort for the God of Plague to suppress the desire to turn his head to look at him, and his low voice echoed in the plagued Argos: "Who taught you these words? Your mother? "

"No!" Xiaotuanzi glanced at Diana again, denying it categorically.

"But you are not the god of truth, and neither is your mother." The tone of the plague god became weaker, just like Apollo when he pampered her, "You can lie as much as you want without suffering from the godhead Burning with fire."

Xiaotuanzi tried to shrink himself even smaller, and protested cowardly: "No!"

"Did your mother teach you not to admit it?" He finally turned his head, his eyes stayed on Xiaotuanzi for a moment, and then gradually moved to those pale glass-colored eyes.Her eyes were still as clear and clear as before, but she had a little more comprehension for no reason.

The God of Plague had a feeling that he couldn't hide it any longer.

But now, not now, it's not the time to tell her, the time is wrong, the timing is wrong.

whoosh-

A plague-stricken eagle suddenly rushed towards Diana.Diana subconsciously protected Xiaotuanzi before she raised her hand. The God of Plague was already ahead of her, tapped the eagle's claws lightly, and said as if chanting a mantra, "Scatter—into atoms."

The figure of the eagle freezes in mid-air.

As if suffering the most terrifying curse, the eagle, which was still incomparably vigorous just now, disappeared into the air in an instant.Diana could clearly see that countless tiny particles were spinning crazily in the air, drifting away bit by bit, and could no longer gather into the shape of an eagle.

"Why does your lord use such a complicated method?" Xiaotuanzi poked his head out of Diana's closed hands and asked softly.

The God of Plague withdrew his hand and still turned his head, not looking at him or Diana: "It's cleaner this way."

Diana was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "At the beginning, Apollo taught me the same method."

The God of Plague smiled: "Gods who understand atomic theory will use this method. Your Highness, Moon God, you are too stubborn."

"You really have nothing to do with Apollo?"

"Didn't you already—have you seen my face?" The God of Plague sighed softly, with a bit of helplessness and connivance.

"But that doesn't mean anything...well..."

Diana was only halfway through her words when she was suddenly suppressed by the God of Plague, and most of her whole body, including Xiaotuanzi, was covered by the dark golden robe.There were rustling sounds from the bottom of the city wall, vaguely it was Hercules who had seen it before: "Is everyone here?"

"It's ready." It was Jason who spoke.

"Where is Lord Prometheus?"

"Waiting for us in town."

The rustling sounds gradually faded away, and the God of Plague let go of Diana.Diana took a deep breath, completely unable to ignore the strange feeling in her heart, and asked persistently, "Why did you send the plague on Argos?"

"There is no reason, I want to do it, so I did it naturally." The God of Plague replied casually, jumped off the high city wall, and followed Hercules away.Diana hugged Xiaotuanzi, followed closely behind the God of Plague, and also followed.

Prometheus has been rescued and has been wandering the human world these days.

Hercules, Jason, and many other people whose names could not be named walked into the plague-shrouded palace of Argos together.The current royal palace is useless. After the king handed over the scepter to Jason, he took his wife and children and nobles and fled to neighboring countries.Jason got what he always wanted, but he didn't feel very happy.Because his wife, Medea, had died in the plague.

The God of Plague did not enter the palace, his sharp eyes had already penetrated the thick palace walls, looking at the person sitting on the chair, or the god.

Iapetus.

Prometheus.

Atlas.

Menoetius.

Typhon.

Eckard.

Sphinx.

Medusa.

Tantalus.

……

Every time a person was recognized, the look of surprise in the eyes of the God of Plague grew stronger.Until later, not only the God of Plague, but even Diana asked in a low voice in surprise: "How did they get together?"

"Listen to what they are saying first." The plague god whispered.

Diana nodded slightly: "Okay."

"I hate Athena."

Medusa spoke first, her eyes full of resentment, "She turned me into this person who is neither human nor snake. For hundreds of years, the only reason for me to live is revenge! Revenge! Revenge! "

"Me too." A huge spider hangs down from the roof, its colorful body reflecting hideous light.

Hercules looked around: "Who here has been cursed and hunted down by Hera?"

Almost half of them accounted for it, and they were basically the lovers and sons of Zeus left in the human world.

"The lofty Olympus has always shown no compassion for the human race. They created humans, but then abandoned them." Prometheus looked around and said slowly, "Even, even the sky fire is not willing to give to humans. Feng, Eckard, Sphinx, what about you?"

Typhon sneered twice: "Being defeated by Apollo is the greatest shame in my life."

Eckard: "Me too."

Sphinx raised his paw silently: "I'm here to listen."

"Okay, okay." Iapetos interrupted, "In any case, our purpose is the same."

"Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!" the spider on the wall repeated grimly.

"Be quiet, Arachne." Medusa glanced up at the spider, and the spider quickly turned around and turned its back to Medusa.

"It is indeed...revenge." Iapetos nodded approvingly, "but at least, we should find a more appropriate reason, right? For example, 'for peace and justice', to 'overthrow the brutal rule of the gods', For the 'human race'. The gods are indeed very powerful, especially the pure-blood gods are even more powerful. Atlas, do you have any good suggestions?"

Atlas shook his head.

"I have one." Menotius stood up, "We can modify the order to be extremely complicated like what Zeus did to Cronus, and make the gods fall into eternal silence. Of course, before again, We must find the self-contradictory part of the order, so that they cannot use a veto. For example, I am thinking, if, the earth is not the center of the world..."

Atlas smiled: "The sky is the center of the world?"

Menotius shook his head; "No, the sun, the sun is the center of the world."

"Oh, you can also put the blame on the sun god, so that he can never turn over." Typhon raised his eyebrows, "I like this proposal so much, Menoitius."

Diana outside the palace was so shocked that she could hardly speak.

The sun, the sun is the center of the world!

Heliocentric says!

It turned out to be heliocentric theory!

As early as when Atlas was thrown by Zeus to calculate the trajectories of the stars, she had already faintly felt that something was wrong, but she didn't think about it.But now it seems that to solve the problem of "trajectories of stars", it is bound to lead to the heliocentric theory!

"...Absurd." The God of Plague sneered, "The sun is the center of the world? It's simply absurd."

Diana's face gradually turned pale.

That distorted world, that scene like a doomsday disaster, that thunder roar, that twilight of the gods...

Did it come like this?

the Avengers?

God's Avenger? !

Iapetus is a god, and he is too aware of the weakness of the gods.If there were such a group of "Avengers" in the last life, if they really rewrote the order of the world with the heliocentric theory in the Middle Ages thousands of years later...

It's no wonder that she will be reborn in the human world countless times at all costs.

No wonder...

Diana grabbed the plague god's sleeve and asked him seriously: "You really can't understand 'the sun is the center of the world'?"
