[Greek Mythology] Prince of Zeus

Enmity

Ganymedes thought for a while and said, "My friend, you must have had a lot of interesting things happen in Troy for a year of building walls and grazing animals, right? I really want to hear from you."

Zeus waved back Apollo and said, "Okay, go and tell Ganymedes, who has a heart for Troy."

Apollo thanked Zeus and walked out of the Pantheon with Ganymedes.

Ganymedes left the Temple of the Pantheon, walked a little farther, and quickly pulled Apollo behind an ancient tree. Ganymedes said: "Please tell me, did you meet him in Troy?" What's the matter?"

Apollo smiled wryly and said: "Although I am happy because I can help my friend's country, it is not a happy thing in itself to serve hard labor and build city walls in the world. Otherwise, it is not a punishment. "

"I don't mean these, I mean... King Laomedon of Troy, did you have any troubles with you? And Poseidon the king of the sea." Ganymedes said, "I am very worried about my This nephew, I know he is born with a bad temper, is not as famous as his father Ilos and grandpa Teros."

Apollo said: "There is indeed such a thing, but since Laomedon is your family, I didn't take it too seriously. Laomedon refused to pay according to the agreement we reached with him when we first went to Troy. Our reward for building the city wall, saying that we were punished by the king of the gods to serve hard labor, should not have any reward, and threatened me and the sea king Poseidon that they would bind our hands and feet, treat us as slaves, and sell us The island in the distance. Even threatened to cut off our ears with a sharp copper axe. Sea King Poseidon and I went back to Mount Olympus angrily to report to God King Zeus that we had served God’s punishment. Sea King Poseidon Dong has already returned to his deep sea palace early."

Ganymedes bit his lower lip, "This indifferent Laomedon, elder brother Iros has spoiled him because he is the only son."

"Please don't take it to heart, my friend. Although Laomedon's temper is a little bit big, it may be because of you, a relative who is listed as a god, and is favored by the king of the gods, so he treats the gods even more. You must be unscrupulous." Apollo laughed, "But in fact, he is right to think so, we will not embarrass your relatives. We don't want to suffer another divine punishment from the God King. Now Father God is also concerned about Troy. There is a lot of protection."

Apollo said: "In order to stop you from taking this matter to heart, let me tell you something interesting about my year in Troy. You must want to hear interesting stories about your own country, right?" ?”

But Ganymedes said: "Yes, I really want to hear my friend tell me about the interesting things that happened to you in the world for a year, but now I think of an important thing, next time."

After Ganymedes finished speaking, he ran away. He was in a hurry to go to Troy, and he no longer asked Zeus for instructions.

In this way, Zeus must have also noticed the changes in the timeline of the world.Although Apollo really felt that he had spent a year on earth, to the gods on Mount Olympus, it was only a few days.

The timeline in the human world fluctuated so chaotically that no order could be found, and it was completely devoured and destroyed.

Ganymedes flew to Mount Olympus, hoping he would still be in time.

Although Apollo said so, Ganymedes didn't think that Poseidon, the king of the sea, would endure it again and again. As the king of the sea and the brother of Zeus, he was punished by Zeus twice in succession, and even condescended to build a building for mortals. The city wall was built for a year, and after a year of repairs, the king still refused to pay him and even threatened him disrespectfully.

Ganymedes didn't think Poseidon could really let Laomedon go easily.

Unlike Apollo, Poseidon has no friendship with him, and it can even be said that he has a grudge against him.

Ganymedes wished he could fly faster, so as to prevent the unfortunate things he guessed from happening.

It's a pity that I don't have Hermes' wing flying shoes, and I can't go there very quickly without Hermes' company.

When Ganymedes arrived in Troy, he saw that the city of Troy was clearly destroyed and chaotic.

I cried in my heart that it was not good, and I was even more anxious.

Ganymedes didn't have time to think about it, and went directly to the Troy Palace. He hadn't been to the newly built Troy Palace yet, so he didn't know where Laomedon was.

Ganymedes saw that the guards and maids all looked flustered.

Ganymedes asked directly, "Where is Laomedon?"

The young attendants saw Ganymedes without even knowing who he was.

"My lord, Prince Ganymedes?" Fortunately, a senior manager who has served for many years recognized Ganymedes, and burst into tears.

"It's me, faithful old servant, tell me where Laomedon is? What happened here?" Ganymedes asked excitedly.

"The king is in the main hall, please follow me, something serious has happened." The old manager explained the whole story while leading the way for Ganymedes.

It turned out that after Laomedon refused to pay the reward and threatened Poseidon, the king of the sea, Poseidon did not let Laomedon go.

Poseidon sent sea monsters to trample on the land of Troy, endangering people and animals, and persecuting King Laomedon's own daughter. Laomedon failed to keep Troy safe, and in pain could only tie the princess Hesione to a sea rock. As a sacrifice to the sea monster, hoping to appease the wrath of Poseidon, the king of the sea.

At this time, Heracles passed by here on his return from an expedition. Laomedon hurriedly asked him for help and agreed to the reward he asked for. As long as he rescued his daughter Hesione, he would give it to Heracles. Good horse.

Hercules went to kill the sea monster and rescued Hesione, but Laomedon broke his promise and refused to send the horse.

Hercules took only six ships, a small number of strong ones, and swept the entire city of Troy.

Now Laomedon and his wife and children are captured in the hall.

When Ganymedes rushed to the main hall, he happened to see a bloody and shocking scene.

Hercules was holding the head of Laomedon, and the hall was littered with corpses and rivers of blood flowed.

The chief executive who was leading the way for Ganymedes fainted from shock when he saw this situation.

Come one step late.

Ganymedes glared furiously at his former friend Hercules.

"Arrogant and cruel Hercules! What are you doing? It's not that you don't know that they are my relatives, but you don't care about my friendship at all, so you kill them!"

Ganymedes uttered words of anger almost trembling all over his body. This was the first time he saw his relatives killed in front of his own eyes in such a cruel and terrifying way.

Ganymedes was so shocked that his hands and feet were cold, and his mouth and eyes were sore.

Even though he had already guessed this scene, this was the fate of Troy and Laomedon.But when things really happen in front of your eyes, it is a completely different experience from guessing.

Ganymedes thought that the three Fates had told him that fate was immutable.

Ganymedes clenched his fists.

"Ganymedes, no, look, it was because of my friendship with you that I kept Laomedon's youngest son from being killed." Hercules said, throwing away Lao in his hand. Mo Dong's head, "This way Troy will not perish, and there will still be successors."

Hercules' tone was relaxed, even in front of Ganymedes, he didn't feel ashamed at all.

"Marriage turned you into an inhuman devil. We were friends, but you turned us into enemies with your own hands." Ganymedes said painfully.

"Hey, don't insult my marriage. It's the best marriage I've ever had," Hercules said.

Ganymedes thought that Hercules once killed the monster sent by Hera to protect him, but now, he killed his relatives in front of him.

Hercules must have been bewitched and poisoned by Hebe and Hera after he married Hebe, and he was completely on the opposite side of himself, so he would do such cruel and vicious things to his relatives.Hera and Hercules were clearly enemies in the past, but Ganymedes could not have expected the change now.Marriage can change a person so much.

He's not what he used to be.

Ganymedes said: "Stupid people are willing to suffer the poison of Hera and Hebe."

Hercules said: "Don't even think about severing the relationship between Hebe and me, even if you are good at it."

"What did you say?" Ganymedes said angrily, "Shameless Hercules, you have changed, you have become hideous, ferocious and ferocious."

"Shameless? Are you calling me? It is your nephew Laomedon who has repeatedly betrayed his promises. He not only deceived his people but also deceived the gods, and did not pay attention to the gods. He is not worthy of being a king. This is what he deserves. punishment." Hercules said, "He promised me that if he saved his daughter Hesione, he would give me the best horse in the morning light and the sun. For this reason, I killed the sea monster and rescued Hesione. Nirvana, but he refuses to pay me what he promises."

Hercules pointed to Hesione who was shivering in a corner. She was trembling with Priam in her arms. The scene of her parents and brother being brutally murdered brought a huge psychological shadow to her.In the excessive fright, he was completely speechless in a daze.

"Bold Hercules, how dare you ask for the steed that Zeus, the king of the gods, gave to my father Teros, that is not something you can have." Ganymedes said.

Hercules snorted, "I have punished Laomedon, and now I will leave Troy."

"I won't talk to you anymore, and I won't ask for the horse that the god king bestowed on your father, so it's even." Hercules made a gesture and walked forward, "I don't think I'm at fault for this matter. It was Laomedon who deceived the gods first. I advise you not to avenge Laomedon, otherwise your country will suffer.”

No, it's impossible to even!
