[Comprehensive British and American] God's life is difficult and how to break it

The corners of this notebook are fuzzy, and every page is filled with words and occasional sketches.Newbella flipped through it casually, and found that there were annotations written in ink of other colors next to many paragraphs, which showed that her mother often read it.

"When did she come up with such a... diary with rich pictures and texts?" Newbella closed the book and rubbed the spine lovingly, "She annotated more than a dozen times next to the paragraph where I learned to call my mother, with various ink colors , looks like a rainbow."

"You know, most of the protoss are born as adults, and occasionally there are a few gods who grow from infants to teenagers, and they all showed extraordinary divine power when they were babies." Alibi said, "You and us It's different, babies are so stupid, soft blobs, they don't know anything."

"Thank you so much." Newbella put away the notebook, planning to read it slowly later, "What do you want to imply?"

"You have an extraordinary meaning to Aphrodite." Elibi looked into her eyes, "From being unable to speak to being proficient in several languages, from having no hair to having hair, from being unable to walk to being able to fly Go, your growth made her feel the magic of life."

Newbella's nose was sour, and tears almost fell again: "Okay, don't be sensational! What is this... this broken box?"

"What is a broken box? This is a gift I carefully prepared for you. It contains the seeds of all the vegetation in Olympus." Alibi dissatisfied, "Didn't you steal my notes? There are thousands of potions in the notes As for the formula, how can you do it with only notes and no ingredients!"

"Thank you!" Newbella quickly picked up the wooden box in front of her, and suddenly remembered that Gemma had been called back to S.H.I.E.L.D., and her mood fell again, "But I won't..."

"You don't know anything?" Peter came back with the kettle in hand. "Huh? This wooden box is so pretty."

"Look, look, people say it looks good!" Alibi was very happy, "Peter, I admire you, do you know how to grow flowers?"

"Well...at least you won't die." Peter said guiltily, "What's wrong?"

"Look, look, they don't look like you, what kind of plant do they die!" Alibi was even happier, "Peter, can you make potions?"

Newbella suddenly remembered the scene where Peter was able to communicate with Gemma barrier-free, and his mood improved immediately: "He will! And the human production process is much more advanced than yours, right Peter?"

Peter looked at Alibi in embarrassment, and then at Newbella: "Ah... yes."

"Great!" Alibi was not angry at all, "This way you can...read the No.60 nine pages of the notes."

"What's on page nine of No. 60?" Newbella asked curiously, "Why didn't you tell us directly."

"I can't tell you directly. If I say it, it will violate the "New Humanity Management and Assistance Measures." Alibi looked tangled, "In short, you must make it out."

"But didn't you say..."

"My dad is on the list of candidates for the king of the gods. According to miscellaneous relevant regulations, my behavior is also bound by the "New Human Management and Assistance Measures", but it is not as serious as his." Alibi was rarely serious, " Newbella, remember every word I said to you, by all means."

"Give me a few minutes to digest." Newbella said with a bitter face, "Do you also remember the greetings?"

Alibi smiled like a fox: "Yes, otherwise, how will you miss me in the future?"

Newbella, Peter: "..."

"I won't introduce the other gifts one by one, you go back and study it yourself." Alibi pushed all the things in front of her, "By the way, do you still have the kindling that Hephaestus gave you?"

"There are so many, I have no chance to use them." Newbera said, "Can I use fire to burn Ares' base camp?"

Alibi made a gesture to sew his mouth shut.

"Well, you can't tell me," Newbella said. "Is there anything else you want to tell me?"

Alibi didn't hesitate at all: "The first season of "Hemlock Grove", the eighth episode, from 38 minutes 58 seconds to [-] minutes [-] seconds, we will watch it after we leave."

"Okay." Newbella wrote down the reminder in the memo, "Is the TV series good?"

"I haven't seen it, how do I know." Elibi finished drinking the water in the mug, patted his trouser legs and stood up, "Eros is here."

Newbera and Peter turned their heads together, and looked in the direction he was looking at. Not far from the artificial lake, the handsome Eros appeared out of thin air, which looked different from the image in the oil painting.

"Eros...Cupid?" Peter whispered to Newbella with his hands folded behind his back, "He's not...he's not..."

"Hey, don't believe too much in the legends, he has several forms." Newbera said, "The bare-bottomed kid with wings is him... well, it's his image at work, so it's easy to hide."

Alibi smiled and waved to Eros. Eros frowned slightly when he saw Newbella, and strode over.

"Something's wrong, Eros looks so bitter and bitter." The smile on Alibi's face gradually faded, "Could it be that he was brainwashed by Ares?"

Newbella suddenly became nervous and instinctively went to pull Peter, but Eros suddenly accelerated and stood in front of them in an instant.

"What are you doing?" Alibi yelled anxiously, "Eros, don't forget the real purpose of our coming to Earth."

"I haven't forgotten." Eros suddenly blushed, "He won't listen to me."

Newbella blocked Peter behind him calmly: "Brother, have you seen... Ares?"

Eros nodded and squeezed out a bleak smile: "Look, the relationship between the characters in Greek mythology is the most chaotic in the whole world, and the relationship between the characters in our family is the most chaotic in all Greek mythology."

"Hmm..." Newbella didn't dare to speak, for fear that she would lose control of her tears when she opened her mouth, "Mmm..."

Eros pursed his lips tightly, his chest heaved violently, trying to restrain his sadness.After a long silence, he suddenly reached out and rubbed Newbella's head, scaring Alibi and Peter out of their wits. Fortunately, he didn't make any other moves.

"Although Ares is my biological father, I..." Eros choked up and couldn't speak, "I am on the side of you and mother, that is... the side of life."

Newbella nodded again and again, only to feel that her chest was congested, and tears dripped on the ground with her movements, forming small circles that were hard to see one after another.

"I will miss you, everyone will miss you." Eros pinched her face lovingly, "You will always be my sister."

The two were feeling sad when a bright red lightning flashed across the sky and exploded with loud noises.The wind howled, and the strange red light flashed non-stop, covering the whole world in it, which felt like the end of the world.

"Damn it." Peter held on to the railing in horror, "What's going on?"

"Oops, the rift will be closed early." Alibi raised his voice, "Eros! Grab my hand, we have to go now!"

"Newbella, his sword!" Eros seized the last chance and shouted loudly, "His sword is no longer the sword it used to be!"

"I can't hear you clearly!" Newbella's ears could only hear the whistling wind, "What's wrong with his sword?"

But Eros and Elipi have disappeared, and the bright red lightning has disappeared, the wind has stopped whistling, and the world has returned to normal and calm.

"Eros! Elibe!" Newbella couldn't believe that they left like this. She called out their names loudly, hoping that the two of them would get out from under the table, and then smiled meanly at her.

But she never heard back.

Newbella stood in a daze beside the artificial lake where Eros appeared, and Peter moved over cautiously, holding the sheepskin satchel left by Elibi in his hand, which contained the gifts from the main gods.

"I may... never see them again." Newbella was very sad, even a little desperate, "I rewinded the time when I thought I was bound by the "New Human Management and Assistance Method". Looking forward to hope, I feel that there will always be a chance to go back; now...even if I know that I am not bound by the "New Human Management and Assistance Measures", so what? The front door and the cracks are closed."

Peter racked his brains, but he still couldn't think of how to comfort her. The protagonist in the movie spoke long philosophies about life, but apart from his heartache, he could only say things like stop crying and be strong.Thinking about it this way, Peter also felt a little desperate.

"How about, let's go and watch... the TV series that Alibi mentioned first?" Peter suggested with a feeling of apprehension.Although he can't say comforting life philosophy, he also knows that when people are sad, diverting attention is a good way to heal.

Newbella nodded feebly and agreed: ""Hemlock Grove" seems to be produced by Flix? Use my account."

"it is good."

Peter immediately took out the tablet to adjust the video, and fast forwarded to 38 minutes and [-] seconds that Alibi said. The cache ended soon. In the slightly dim picture, a person dressed as a teacher was giving a lecture, and the blackboard behind the teacher It says "hibernation" in big letters.

"A common theme in Greek mythology is hibernation. A ritual requiring descent into the mortal world to complete a prescribed task, or to defeat a dangerous foe."①

Peter looked at the progress bar. From the time the teacher started talking to the end, it was exactly 38 minutes 58 seconds to [-] minutes [-] seconds.

"Aribi wants to say... am I just dormant?" Newbella asked in a low voice, "And then? Defeat Ares and become a god in the pantheon?"

She looked away in frustration and refused to watch the video again: "I'm sorry Peter, I'm really sad today, can we talk about it another day?"

"Okay...Okay." Peter put Alibi's satchel on the bench next to him, and then walked away silently.

The author has something to say: ①From the eighth episode of the first season of the American TV series "Hemlock Grove", the version with subtitles for everyone.
