The.

"I know Zeus has done many wrong things, and it is understandable for you to hate him in your heart." Hermes still tried his best to persuade him, "But what we are doing now is not just for him. If Cronus comes back , It will be a catastrophe to the heaven and the world. Prometheus, as the father of mankind, are you willing to see your children suffer catastrophe?"

Hearing Hermes talking about human beings, Prometheus sighed: "Human beings are no longer what I saw at the beginning. People at that time were simple, sincere, and lived hard and persistently. They worked hard every day and took risks. Hunting with danger, but I want to dedicate the most precious things I have harvested to the gods. I sympathize with their experiences, and I want them to get rid of the control of the gods so that they can truly be free. But thinking about it now, I have a little faith And awe is necessary, just like sheep are afraid of wild wolves, birds are afraid of goshawks... Now humans have lost their awe and faith, become ignorant, arrogant, greedy, and do whatever they want. Such a group of people, whether Is it worth saving?"

"What you said is the truth. If one day human beings destroy themselves, then I have nothing to say. But now that the disaster is approaching, you are hiding in the mountains and watching with nothing. Does it make sense? Don't blame human beings for changing. Prometheus, in fact, you have also changed! You have changed from a brave man who brought light to the night of mankind to a coward who can only hide here like a turtle!" Hermes turned to Apollo , "Let's go, we found the wrong person! Without him, we can still find a way! Oh, yes, before we go back, let's let Chiron go, don't let him think we are stingy!"

"Hey, wait." Seeing them turning around to leave, Prometheus stopped them again, "Don't you even have the patience to listen to an uncle's complaints, so why go to Goddess Gaia? "

Hermes stopped, turned around and walked back: "I said you are not young, why do you like to make things difficult for us juniors? Zeus offended you before I was born, how can you get rid of it?" Is it all on my head?"

"Hehe, be patient, young man! Uncle, I haven't talked to anyone for so long, and finally saw someone coming, can you not tease me a little bit?"

"Okay, when we win this battle, we will have a drink with you!"

Prometheus reached out and patted Hermes on the shoulder: "It's not you who want to embarrass me. You are going to find Gaia. This trip must be difficult."

"Try anyway, there is no other way."

Seeing that they had made up their minds, Prometheus nodded, "Let's go, sit in my cabin."

Prometheus led Hermes forward, and Apollo wanted to follow, but he blocked him.

"Go, fulfill your promise just now, and rescue my friend Chiron from the top of the mountain."

Apollo glanced at Hermes, a little worried.

"You go, I will wait for you in the cabin in front."

"Ok."

Apollo turned and flew away. He believed that what Hermes heard would tell him.

Hermes followed Prometheus to his cabin deep in the forest.

The things inside are very simple, only a table, a chair, a bed and a box.

"This is the first time a visitor has arrived, so you can sit on that chair."

Hermes sat down on the chair: "Is it convenient to talk now?"

"Actually, since the last Titan War, Gaia has been invisible, and I don't know exactly where..."

"What?! You..."

"Listen to me first." Prometheus quickly suppressed his anger, "Gaia is the goddess of the earth, and her primordial spirit originally lived in the center of the land. But after Kronos came to power, She moved to the end of the world. We also followed Rhea's instructions and flew north. If she allows you to enter her territory, you will naturally find her."

"We don't even have a specific place name, so how can we judge that we are going to the right place?"

"It depends on your luck." Prometheus said with a chuckle, "But there is a way to verify whether you have found the right place."

"what way?"

"Has your divine power disappeared?"

"What do you mean?"

"I remember that when Zeus and I were looking for Gaia, we were flying north. While flying, we suddenly fell from the sky and became like ordinary people."

"Why is that?"

"I think it's the test given by Gaia to see if we have the perseverance and perseverance to go on. Or maybe it's the magic power of 'Slaying God'. It is said that the gods who are close to it, except for its holder, other All gods will be sucked away, which is why Zeus was able to kill so many Titan gods at that time, and their divine power was taken away."

"That is to say, after you fell from the sky, you knew you had entered Gaia's territory?"

"Yes, we moved forward on foot, and encountered many difficulties and obstacles. Both Poseidon and I were blocked, and only Zeus and Hades made it to the end."

"It's the same as in my dream..."

"Oh? You dreamed about our past? Hehe, that's really interesting..." Prometheus looked at Hermes, "Perhaps you were chosen out of nowhere."

Was chosen out of nowhere?

It seems that after Zhang Xiaomo was in a car accident, the goddess of fate said to herself.

Alas, is this his pleasure, or his misfortune?

Hermes smiled wryly, "Maybe."

Prometheus continued: "This time you go to Gaia, it will definitely be more difficult and dangerous than our last time."

"why?"

"Because Gaia is hopeless, a sad and desperate mother. She chose Hades at the beginning, because Hades promised to deal with this matter peacefully, so she lent 'Zhenshen'. But later, this The sword was taken away by Zeus's tricks, which caused another bloodbath in the heavens. Think about it, both the Titans and the Olympus gods are the descendants of Gaia, and she just looks at them like this Killing, can you not be sad? So, she is desperate for us juniors, if you want to ask her to lend 'Slaying God' again, I am afraid that you will have to pay a higher price."

"Since you knew that there would be such consequences, why didn't you help Hades? If Hades was holding the sword at that time, the situation like today would not have happened!"

"Hermes, Hades can't be the king of gods, only Zeus can." Prometheus explained, "The power struggle is quite cruel, and Hades has a kind heart, even if he temporarily defeats Crowe. North, he still won't let go of power. Hades doesn't want to be king, and he has nothing to lose. But the young gods below, they think differently. They yearn for freedom, and even more yearn for world domination, In this way, the contradiction between the old and new generations of gods will always exist, and the war will continue. It is better to kill them all like Zeus, and the new generation will replace the old forces, and peace will be achieved in the heavens .”

"Nonsense! If it weren't for Zeus, there wouldn't be so many things today!"

"Hehe, if it wasn't for Zeus, you wouldn't be where you are today."

When Hermes heard this, he froze again: "I am his son, so I deserve to wipe his ass for the wrong things he has done!"

Prometheus spread his hands and said: "In short, our actions have also brought peace to the heavens for tens of thousands of years. The rest are the affairs of your descendants."

"Hmph, when we finish this battle, I will beat you seniors one by one!"

"Hehe, infinite welcome...but Hermes," Prometheus suddenly put away his smile and turned serious, "After this battle, will I still see you?"

Hermes was also silent for a while.

Yes, when the war is over, he will be gone.

But he still forced a smile and said, "Are you cursing me? We also made an appointment to have a good drink!"

"Here, you don't have to pretend." Prometheus said empathetically, "It's very heavy for one person to bear everything."

Hermes no longer forced a smile, and the expression in his eyes gradually dimmed.

"Speak, child." Prometheus comforted, "I dismissed Apollo, just wanting to talk to you alone. Don't worry, I won't tell him what you said now."

Hermes sighed, and then gradually opened his heart.

"Prometheus, it's just that you can't move freely, but at least your soul is still your own. And I..." Hermes touched his chest unconsciously, "I don't even own my soul anymore."

"Sure enough! No wonder I felt something was wrong when I saw you!" Prometheus asked, "Even so, do you still want to fight this battle?"

"Yeah." Hermes smiled easily, "In the lava now, there are Zeus who loves me the most, and Hades who I love the most. Can I let them go? Besides, Apo They are all my closest partners!"

"I'm sorry..." After listening to Hermes' words, Prometheus felt guilty, "Maybe my choice at the beginning was wrong, if it was Hades at that time, maybe there wouldn't be so much trouble .”

"Forget it, it's useless to argue about who is right and who is wrong now, let's think about how to solve the problem in front of us!"

Prometheus felt a burst of emotion, got up suddenly, went to the wall and took down a sheepskin bag.

"child,
