[Greek mythology] Born to be arrogant

As the voice of Diana chanting the incantation became louder, the moonlight overflowing from the Temple of the Sun also gradually increased.The crescent moon in the sky was like a bowstring, held in the hands of the sleeping Moon Goddess, flowing with a cold and moist light.

The low roar of the group of beasts gradually subsided, and some of them were already curled up under the roots of the trees and trembling.

Diana turned her head and glanced at Apollo, who nodded slightly with encouragement in his eyes.

She raised her hands and clasped them together vaguely, as if holding a golden scepter.

"Leave."

The group of beasts retreated step by step, then turned and ran down the mountain.

Eckard roared angrily, but he still couldn't stop the rushing momentum of the beasts.She curled up the snake's tail angrily, and slammed it towards the crescent moon in mid-air.

Apollo held Diana with one hand, and with the other hand, he drew a golden arrow from his quiver, aimed it at Echid's seven inches, and threw it fiercely.

The golden arrow was like a javelin, galloping out with the heat wave like flowing fire, and pierced Eckard's back accurately.Eckard curled up the tail of the snake that was flung in pain, rolled in mid-air, and roared angrily:

"Apollo, you wait for me!!!"

"I'll wait." The Sun God said lightly, and his voice enveloped the entire Holy Mountain of Olympus.

All the gods looked up at the golden Pegasus in mid-air. They could only vaguely see a human girl in the arms of the sun god. They couldn't see her face clearly, but her dazzling silver hair was just like that of the moon god.

I heard that Luna especially likes to play in the human world, and it is true.

As the brilliance of the bright moon in mid-air became more and more prosperous, more and more fierce beasts were dormant.There were a few particularly ferocious ones left, and Diana motioned for Apollo to take her there, stretched out her hand and pressed on the forehead of the ferocious beast, and recited two incantations in a low voice, even the ferocious beasts turned into well-behaved little beasts. cat.But after a while, the herd of beasts that had been forcibly summoned was gone, leaving only Eckard lying on the ground panting, and her and Typhon's children.

"Sure enough, it's you again, Diana."

The Goddess of Wisdom hovered high in front of the golden Pegasus holding an aegis shield and a spear, her suspicious eyes swept over Diana and Apollo, and finally settled on Diana's waist.Apollo had already put away his quiver, and a pair of strong arms were wrapping around her waist.

"It seems that the rumors are true. His Highness the Sun God 'especially' likes priestesses in the human world." Goddess of Wisdom deliberately emphasized the word "especially".

Apollo smiled, and hugged Diana even tighter: "I never deny that."

"But why do you keep preventing Diana from participating in the revision of the world order?" Goddess of Wisdom asked.

"Do I have it?"

"For tens of thousands of years, Diana has only been to the Temple of Order once, oh no, twice. The second time was to find you, and she broke in by mistake!" The suspicion in the eyes of the Goddess of Wisdom became even more suspicious, "You Is it to protect Diana? But in my opinion, Diana may be better than you."

"Why do I feel that you seem to be sowing discord?"

"You're worrying too much, Sun God." The Goddess of Wisdom took a step back, "It's time for me to go back to Zeus. The Moon God had better return to his seat as soon as possible, otherwise—"

Otherwise, she didn't say anything, but she knew it was not a good thing after thinking about it.

The sky gradually darkened.

The golden pegasus impatiently kicked the clouds, and the 12-meter-long golden wings rolled up a large swath of fire.

Apollo frowned and didn't move at all, as if he was worried about something.He has maintained this action for a long time.

Diana had already sent her divine body back to the Temple of the Sun, gathered the crescent moon in the sky, and quietly leaned against Apollo's arms, without urging him, she only said softly, "I'm hungry."

Apollo gave a soft "ah" and came back to his senses.

Now Diana is a human race, and she needs to eat a certain amount of food every day, otherwise she will die.

He turned his horse's head and flew towards the human world, and the whispers of the gods came from behind:

"...The Sun God seems to particularly like girls with silver hair?"

"...The aesthetics must have been spoiled by His Royal Highness the Moon God."

"...Hush, don't talk nonsense, the one who was hugged by His Highness the Sun God just now is the Moon God..."

How Zeus will deal with Eckard and how he will deal with Argos, Apollo doesn't want to care about it at all.

He took Diana back to Delphi, fed her lunch in spite of her strong objections, and then, as usual, walked with her on the beach, hand in hand.The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the bustling island, and the waves shone with golden light, which was amazingly beautiful.

For a moment, Apollo wanted to stop time completely.

He suddenly asked Diana: "Tell me, what is 'time'?"

"'Time'?" Diana tilted her head and thought for a while, then said with a somewhat uncertain tone, "Probably a measurement. However, even later generations cannot find a perfect definition of time. Remember Did I ever tell you? Time is actually relative."

"Yeah." Apollo nodded, "That's why I can see other people's futures, but not my own."

"Have you...understood what's going on?" Diana asked cautiously.

Apollo shook his head: "No." In fact, he never figured out what the so-called "frame of reference" and "inertial frame" are.But just as Diana had told him countless times, if he couldn't understand it, then just assume it was wrong.Anyway, until he fully understood these things, she would not take the initiative to modify the scroll of order.

"Hmm..." Diana said hesitantly, "I heard that 'that' very powerful person, before proposing that 'time is relative', had an idea: if the speed of light, chasing light run……"

For the time being, Diana didn't know the significance of giving him the general theory of relativity.However, seeing that Apollo has been devoting himself to the study of music theory recently, and has even fallen into a state of madness, she thinks it's better to pull him out temporarily.

How far has the madness come?

In the past two or three months, the word that Apollo said most frequently is: chord.

Apollo sneered and laughed, "For example, should I run after you as fast as I can?"

"Ah?...Ah, probably so." Diana realized that the topic had been misled by him again.

"Hmm. That's a good idea." Apollo smiled wickedly, "Maybe we can try it next time?"

Diana faintly had a bad premonition, and coughed lightly, "Cough, then, next time, let's talk about it next time."

"I found that you have become more sensitive recently, Diana." Apollo took her hand, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly, then stroked her palm carefully, with a deep smile in his eyes, " Well, by the way, Olympus received a letter a few days ago, saying that the underworld has never listened to the tune, which made Zeus very angry."

Diana was taken aback: "...This uncle really likes to make things difficult for Zeus."

"Who told Zeus to do him a favor?" Apollo shook his head.

Diana was silent for a moment, then asked again: "What did Uncle Hades say?"

"What he wrote in the letter was: The order of the underworld has been 'adjusted' countless times, and it has gradually separated from the human world, and of course it has also separated from Olympus, so there is no need to obey the orders of the god king. Zeus demolished When I wrote the letter, I was so angry that my hands were trembling, and I only said one sentence-'It turns out that Hades has not been idle for tens of thousands of years. "

"That Prometheus..."

"It's been silent, and it hasn't appeared again for at least two months. Although the scroll of order has been partially modified by him, most of it is a summary of Hecate's "Magic Quotations". Most of the gods have read her works. , it’s nothing surprising.”

Diana stopped in her tracks.

"What's wrong?" Apollo also stopped and looked at her in surprise.

"Tell me, if you and I, in the name of 'magic', write a book called 'Thirteen Hundred Rules for Improving Divine Power', will the gods accept it without hesitation?"

Apollo was slightly taken aback: "You mean..."

"Put a coat on those obscure 'rules'. Presumably no god wants to see Ragnarok descend, including Zeus."

Apollo was silent for a moment, then nodded heavily: "Okay."

In the past, only scholars in the human world would do such things as writing books.Most of the gods only quarrel in the Temple of Order, and when the quarrel is over, they either accept it or fall into silence, and it goes on and on for hundreds of millions of years.

Diana once asked Apollo why no gods were reincarnated as human beings to understand the world.

Apollo's answer is: If he is reincarnated as an adult, he will not come back easily.

Diana was silent.

Among the protoss, there will always be guys who keep an eye on the high-ranking gods, especially the demigods who are not limited by the power of the rules and are extremely powerful.

If you are accidentally taken advantage of by other gods...

"So, it is a very lucky thing to have a god who can give himself wholeheartedly." Apollo said with emotion.

The sequelae of "obedience to the tune but not the announcement" in the underworld are quite powerful.

Zeus's prestige is decreasing day by day, and even the sea realm is a little bit overwhelmed.The sea gods persuaded Oceanus and Poseidon one by one, and followed Hades, the king of the underworld, to "listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement". Anyway, the sea and the sky are separated by a long distance, so Zeus can't care. It doesn't matter.Poseidon had just had this idea, but Hera immediately noticed it, and then quietly suppressed it.

The queen's wrist is indeed quite tough.

However, to deal with the sea gods who have always been rebellious, this kind of tough tactics is somewhat inappropriate.

In the end, the sea realm rebelled 28 times, and the stormy waves swept across the entire land, almost destroying the entire world.Apollo had to go up to the dome himself, evaporate the flood, and use his usual gentle policy to appease the sea gods.More than 1000 days and nights passed before the world became a little quieter.

Zeus finally walked out of the Temple of Order, with dark circles under his eyes, and issued a brand new oracle:

"Seal the scroll of order."
