I don't like the gods, I want to be a hero

Chapter 64 Prometheus

"Are you sure it's here?" On an unnamed mountain, Seleus pushed aside the boulder blocking the way and asked the Pegasus who was following him: "Brother, are you making a mistake? How can such a desolate environment It does not look like the abode of a god."

Tianma snorted in displeasure, since meeting this guy, everything has been going wrong, and he hasn't said anything yet, this big guy dares to doubt his professionalism in leading the way.The more he thought about it, the more angry Pegasus raised his hoof, and kicked Serius hard on the buttocks.

'immunity!immunity!immunity! '

"Don't make trouble!" Pegasus's angry kick did not bring any influence to Serius. The big man who had been soaked in the Styx slapped Pegasus' hooves away without looking back. The huge force easily broke the The balance of Tianma's body, it is so good that it does not fall to the ground.

Pegasus was dumbfounded, it kept looking back and forth between its own hooves and Serius' skin, its wide eyes were full of doubts about the world.To make sure, it kicked a rock at the side of the road. "Boom!" The ordinary stones were instantly torn apart under Tianma's iron hooves.

"What's the matter with you?" Seleus in front was startled by the sound from behind, and he turned his head a little suspiciously, wanting to see what the hell Pegasus was doing.

After confirming that his strength has not weakened, and at the same time realizing that Serius is a ruthless character, Pegasus decisively lowered his head and pretended to be looking for food after seeing the boss he couldn't offend turning around. .

Serius looked at the pegasus sniffing around on the barren loess in a speechless voice, shook his head and began to look for Prometheus' whereabouts again.

"Are you looking for me? Child." A figure appeared silently beside Serleus who was looking around. His voice frightened Serleus. Legs slightly bent, ready for battle in an instant.

"Son, don't panic. I won't hurt you, or I can't hurt you." Faced with Serius' guard, the figure just stretched out his hand gently, as if to comfort Serius generally.

Seleus also saw the face of the visitor clearly. He has extremely correct facial features, his eyes are piercing, and his whole body is glowing with bronze light. Just standing here, people can feel his love and kindness. wise.However, what is seriously disproportionate to these natural appearances is that the visitor is only wearing a dirty robe full of raptor claws, and the beard on his face seems to have not been taken care of for decades...

Seleus has never seen an existence that can blend noble and abject temperament so naturally in his life. He feels like a god and a prisoner to Seleus.At this time, Serius noticed the Caucasus stone bound between the fingers of the visitor, and he knew that he had found the hero who stole the fire——Prometheus.

"Praise you, Prometheus, the great Illuminati. Please forgive me for my rudeness before." After confirming his identity, Seleus knelt down on one knee and covered his heart with his right hand. God pays the highest respect.

"It doesn't have to be, my child. To me, all human beings are my children, and I do those things willingly." Prometheus said softly.

Prometheus created humans out of clay in the image of gods, so all humans are nominally children of Prometheus.Knowing what kind of torture he was about to suffer, the benevolent god resolutely deceived Zeus and stole the fire.Seleus understood that this was a god worthy of the love and respect of all mankind.

"Why do you live here? A desolate place where no vegetation grows." Seleus stood up and asked, he was a little puzzled, Heracles had already saved Prometheus from the punishment of God King Zeus After being rescued, Zeus promised to return Prometheus's freedom, but why is this loving god still so "down and out".

Prometheus just smiled and shook his head. It seemed that Zeus had returned his freedom, but the stone ring left between his fingers would always remind him of his identity as a sinner and prisoner. What face is it to show off in the market with this stone ring?What's more, he knew Zeus' bottom line with foresight. The God King would never allow him to get close to any human gathering place that could produce heroes. In order to avoid implicating his beloved humans, Prometheus was willing to stay in this desolate place. A place to taste solitude.And all this, he will not explain clearly to this special child in front of him.

"My child, you came looking for me on Poseidon's war horse. Do you have any questions to ask me?" Prometheus stretched out his hand, wanting to stroke the red hair of the child in front of him, but the child's He was taller than he expected, and his hands could only reach Serleus' shoulders.Seeing this, Seleus quickly bowed his head, so that the venerable god could get his wish.Prometheus was very surprised when he saw Serleus's actions, but after being dazed, the smile on the face of the titan became wider. He stroked Serleus's red hair carefully, feeling it carefully Accompaniment of children.

"What a lovely child. Why did the gods discover your ruby-like soul only now? Although there is no shining light, this scorching flame that tightly surrounds the darkness is unique for thousands of years." Prometheus S sighed.

"When I first came to this world, the condition of my soul was very bad." Seleus explained. "However, I am very lucky to have the love of Hades, Hephaestus, and Hestia. This is the most precious treasure for me. Of course, there is also my teacher Chiron .”

"In my opinion, they are much luckier than you." Prometheus withdrew his hand. "My child, you are going to tell your own problems." If the delay continues, God King Zeus will be unhappy.Prometheus said in his heart.

"Great Illuminati, you should be aware of the Trojan War taking place right now?" Serius said slowly.

"I know that the tragedy caused by a game of gods, if there were no gods to intervene, the scale of this war could have been smaller." Prometheus frowned. Of course, the god who loves humans the most is unwilling to watch Let his children kill each other, but what can he do?

"My child, what is your problem? How to break through the gate of Troy as quickly as possible?" Prometheus asked back. If this child came to ask how to break through the gate as quickly as he thought, maybe the loss The Greeks who are not that big will restrain themselves and will not slaughter Troy who is still powerful.

"No! What I want to ask is how can I reduce the loss of innocent lives when I join the Greek coalition forces..."

Chapter 65 The Illuminati's Way

"Child!" Prometheus suspected that because he hadn't communicated with others for a long time, even his hearing had degenerated. "What kind of question did you ask me just now?"

"It is the will of the gods that I join the coalition of Greece and help them break the walls of Troy, which the gods built. But I wanted to prevent this war that would kill a lot of innocent lives, and the cause of the war was the shameful desire of two fools . ” When Seleus mentioned those two 'fools', his eyes were full of anger.

"The Trojans have no ability to fight against my strength. It can be said that as long as I go to the battlefield, I alone can wipe out all the resistance of Troy. But in this case, the intact Greeks will slaughter and plunder wantonly The Trojans who have no ability to fight back." Imagining the purgatory on earth created by humans, Seleus once again covered his right eye in pain. "Troy will become a purgatory worse than Tartarus."

"I don't know what to do to avoid this tragedy. I can't refuse Goddess Athena's request." Seleus looked at the God of Foresight expectantly. "So, I come here to seek your wisdom, great Illuminati! If it is you, you must be able to guide me on a path."

Prometheus was astonished. He had never imagined that such a compassionate dreamer existed in this day and age.He who has seen through the world is very clear that this is a world that encourages adventure and longs for heroes, and taking risks and becoming a hero is all about gaining glory, women, and wealth, and the only thing that can get these the fastest is war.In a world where there is only so much wealth, women, and glory, if you want what you don't have, someone must lose what he has.Therefore, becoming a hero means that you have to step on the bones of others and plunder everything from the loser.

Prometheus thought that even though Seleus was different from other heroes, he still wanted these things.The best situation he had thought of before was that the kid in front of him would ask how to use his power to disintegrate Troy's fighting heart as quickly as possible, so that Troy could end the war while retaining its power.

"Good boy! Good boy!" Prometheus excitedly gave this special child a hug. The Illuminati's smile became brighter, and even the downcast aura on him disappeared a lot.

"So, do you have an answer?" Serius asked cautiously.

"It's very simple! Child. This question is really simple for you!" Prometheus looked at the good boy in front of him with kind eyes.

"But before answering your question, I want to explain to you the situation of the Trojan War. Sit down, sit down first." Prometheus took Sirius' hand and motioned to sit on the ground with him.

"The promise of Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, became the trigger for this war, so she must protect the safety of Paris, otherwise even she would have difficulty giving an explanation to the believers."

"Troy is a city-state that believes in Apollo. At the same time, the passionate Apollo fell in love with the beautiful young Paris, so Apollo will naturally stand on the side of Troy and give them shelter."

"Agamemnon offended Artemis when he traveled, Leto was worried about his two children, and Ares was Aphrodite's lover, so these three gods will also stand on the side of Troy." Prometheus Si analyzed.

"In other words, I need to protect Paris' life in this battle, so that the gods will not intervene and cause the war to escalate, right?" Seleus asked Prometheus with some uncertainty.But the Illuminati shook his head slightly. "Don't be so impatient, listen to my analysis first."

"Athena and Hera hated Paris' behavior, so they retaliated against Troy. And Poseidon has always wanted to destroy the walls of Troy, and by the way teach the Trojans a lesson. Hephaestus was entrusted by his friend to Protect her child. And Hermes is here to make up the numbers." Prometheus' analysis was concise and clear, and he explained the situation of the gods to Seleus in just a few words.

"The purpose of the gods is in conflict. This is simply an impossible task." Seleus frowned, and the goddess Athena was fine, but Hera had to teach Paris a lesson, and this would be against Apo. Luo, Aphrodite and Ares are three gods.

"The anger of the gods is actually very easy to solve. You just need to ask the Trojans to build four magnificent temples after defeating Troy. The temple dedicated to the noblest goddess Hera, the temple dedicated to the wisest goddess Athena Temple, and a temple dedicated to the most beautiful goddess Aphrodite. But be careful, the temples of Hera and Athena need to be side by side and built at the same time. The temple of Aphrodite should be at two Below the goddess." Prometheus said seriously. "The dispute between the goddesses is just a momentary irrationality, and the rest is just because they can't swallow the suppressed breath. As long as they let this breath out and get actual benefits, they will let go of this little bit of anger In this regard, there is actually no difference between gods and mortals."

"What about Lord Poseidon? I understand! The reason why we need to build four temples is because the fourth temple belongs to Lord Poseidon?" Serius felt that things became clear all of a sudden.

"No no no! My innocent child, the fourth temple was built for Zeus. In this way, Zeus will become the patron saint of Troy, and the disputes between the gods will no longer affect this city-state." Prometheus Si rapped Serius on the head lovingly. "As for Poseidon, Troy just needs to make up twice the gold owed before, and promise to pay Poseidon's gold on time in the future."

"Isn't this a bit...not authentic?" The honest man Seleus looked at Prometheus who was still smiling, and he began to sympathize with Poseidon.

"The problems of the gods are solved, and the rest of the mortals will be even simpler." Prometheus ignored the eyes of Celius, and did not know whether Poseidon had offended the Illuminati before. "The Greeks want to plunder and slaughter the Trojans, that's perfectly fine! As long as they have enough strength and mobility..."

"You mean, let me beat up all the Greeks?" Seleus looked at Prometheus who was still smiling in disbelief.

"A newcomer hero always has to prove his own strength to get the corresponding status, doesn't he? After proving his status, you have to rush to the palace of Troy as fast as possible to make them agree to your proposal." Prome Hughes stroked Seleus' hair. "What's more, some gods who count on this war to help them pass the time may not be happy that the war ends so soon, so you have to present a good show for the gods. And there is nothing better than the battle of heroes Let the gods like it."

"So I'm going to organize the heroes for a melee?" Seleus asked.

"Why can't it be a group arena? You defend the ring, Greece and Troy organize heroes to attack respectively, and the Greek side with Achilles must last longer than Troy, right?" Prometheus naughty blinked. "In this case, you may be rewarded by the gods for solving the incident perfectly and having fun for the gods..."

Testimonials

When the day finally came, I was actually quite flustered.The point-to-revenue ratio is as high as 204, which makes me very worried about whether my novel will hit the street after it is put on the shelves.

This is not the author's first novel, but it is the author's first novel signed and to be released.The author is a newcomer and didn't understand anything at the beginning. Because he was worried that he would be rejected, he didn't apply for a contract until the 5-word [-] was accepted, and missed the recommendation for two weeks.And the editor originally said that it would be on the shelves last week, but I thought that this week, I would be able to make a million dollars and get a recommendation from whores. As a result, there were so many big bosses in the same period, and my book was not listed...I always feel more and more flustered. What should I do?

I am very grateful for your support, thank you for being able to read Mengxin’s novel patiently, and thank you friends who are willing to pay to read it in the future.

At the same time, I would like to say sorry for the underworld update caused by my immaturity.After it is put on the shelves, the author will work hard to update more.

In order to celebrate tomorrow's launch, the author decided to do his best, and tomorrow will be tense.

I also hope that everyone will support us tomorrow.

Chapter 66 A Little Event in Seleus

"Thank you for your guidance! Great Illuminator Prometheus." After getting the answer he wanted, Seleus once again saluted the god in front of him.

"There is no need for that, my kind child. I am the one who needs to be thanked. Your kindness and bravery will prevent a tragedy that is happening." Prometheus raised the corners of his mouth and looked at Serius lovingly .

"Without your teaching, I could only use killing to deter those Greeks from doing evil after breaking through Troy." Seleus scratched the back of his head. "Just like what my friend said, the perspective of mortals will always make us ignore many things. I never thought that changing the idea of ​​​​a god is so simple. They are actually similar to us humans, except. ..um~~~ more pure?"

"Wisdom and insight alone are useless." Prometheus said seriously. "You can still do your best to stop all this, but I have countless ways to do it, but I can only watch here."

"But as a god, you have done enough for human beings." Seleus looked at the Illuminati in front of him with admiration. "Your help to mankind will be sung along with the continuation of mankind."

"I do hope that one day humans don't need the help of the gods. I would be happy if they forget me. But depending on the situation, I have to wait a long time before...or not until that era It's here. But maybe..." Prometheus looked at Celius thoughtfully, but quickly shook his head. "I can't see your way forward, child. Please forgive me, a useless old thing, who has no way to warn you of the suffering you will encounter in the future. For you, my brother may be more capable than me to help you."

"You've done enough for me, thank you for worrying about me. And..." Seleus winked at Prometheus. "Isn't an unknown destiny able to make life more exciting? If the trajectory of a person's life is already determined when he is born, isn't everything that humans have done so far meaningless?"

"Hahahaha! I didn't expect that I, an old thing, can't be seen through by a young man!" After hearing Seleus's answer, Prometheus was stunned for a moment, but soon burst out laughing.

After a while, Prometheus stopped laughing. "Yes! Yes! If everything is predestined, what's the point of the existence of us in the world?"

"Son, you've been here for too long." Prometheus suddenly sensed something, and closed his eyes reluctantly. "It's time for you to go, before things get any worse."

"Then, please allow me to say goodbye, great Illuminati." Seleus bowed to Prometheus.Although it was a little strange that the Illuminati asked him to leave suddenly, Serius, who knew his wisdom well, only felt that there was something profound in this move, so he hurriedly pulled Pegasus away.

"Young and kind Seleus! May your future be filled with blessings." Seeing Seleus disappearing into the clouds on a Pegasus, Prometheus opened his eyes and whispered softly.

Prometheus suddenly looked up at the eagle that stopped in the sky at some point. "Great king of gods, His Majesty Zeus who rules Olympus! You who control the infinitely powerful lightning, why should you care so much about a mortal without divinity. You know, he is just a man who has soaked in the river Styx, The lucky ones who survived and were saved by Hades."

"Lucky one who is not dead? Has such a long torture failed to make you, a cunning liar, remember?" The eagle in the sky slowly landed on the ground, and in a blink of an eye it turned into a man in blue. A middle-aged man in black robes, full of divine power.

"I'm just telling the truth. The great god-king Zeus! After suffering so much, how could I, who have seen your majesty, deceive you because of these trivial things?" Seeing Zeus appear, Prometheus Si bowed slightly to the king of gods.

"I don't believe you didn't see his specialness." Zeus stared coldly at the Titan God who had deceived him in front of him. "Not to mention being a mortal but not dying after soaking in the Styx River, how do you explain the old guy's supernatural power?"

"You know, even me, Zeus, the god-king who controls lightning, didn't inherit a single bit of divine power of destruction from the old guy. And this kid was able to perfectly integrate the old guy's power, even though there was Hephaestus in the process. He, and the source of divine power is just the crystallization that fell from the wild species that ran out of nowhere."

"You also said that the source of the divine power is just the crystallization of a demigod, otherwise, how dare Hephaestus let her little guy fuse and destroy the divine power?" Prometheus smiled softly , the Illuminati looked into the eyes of the God King with sincere eyes. "Although the perfect fusion is indeed unexpected, how can that little bit of divine power compare to your complete divinity and the endless power of lightning?"

Zeus looked up and down suspiciously at the seemingly sincere Prometheus. If that child really had the ability to threaten him, then this cunning liar would not have said so openly that Serius could not threaten him. He should He will try his best to downplay the existence of Serius, or directly use other things to divert his attention to prevent himself from sending down thunder to destroy the child.

Because whether it is Zeus or Prometheus, they know very well in their hearts that Zeus, who has been fooled once, will be careful to doubt and verify when he hears any language of Prometheus.Under such circumstances, Prometheus still dared to say that Seleus was no threat to Zeus, so Zeus was likely to destroy the child before he could pose a threat to him because he did not trust Prometheus.

Zeus narrowed his eyes. 'This guy should be very clear that after he said these words, I would probably kill Serius at an immature stage, but he still said that.Is it because the child is really not a threat to me?Or are you provoking me to kill that child on purpose? '

'After killing the child, Hades, Hephaestus, eldest sister Hestia, and my daughters Artemis and Athena are not easy to explain.And the most important thing is that Athena is very close to this guy and that child in front of her, and Hephaestus helped Thetis who can summon giants... Is this guy thinking about it? '

The proud Zeus easily saw through Prometheus' plan, but he pretended not to see it, and wanted to take this opportunity to show his generosity. "Although your expression now reminds me of the first time you lied to me, I am a magnanimous god king, and I will never kill some heroes without evidence just because of their possible threats."

Prometheus bowed his head at the right time. "Thank you for your generosity, the great god-king Zeus. And what if Seleus continues to grow? Your divine power is inexhaustible..."

Zeus looked mockingly at Prometheus who lowered his head to cover up his expression. Are you trying to provoke me even now?Then I can't let you get what you want, can I?

"Honestly speaking, this kid and Hercules are already the strongest heroes in Greece. I am looking forward to what kind of hero he can grow into. If he really accomplishes a feat that amazes me, give him a god It's not impossible." After speaking, Zeus, with a playful smile, turned into an eagle again and flew back to Mount Olympus.

After a long time, after confirming that Zeus really returned, Prometheus slowly raised his head, and his face did not show the disappointment and unwillingness that Zeus imagined.

"People who are proud and think they are smart are actually better at cheating than those idiots, aren't they? Because their thinking patterns can be easily simulated, and they are completely inferior to idiots who act chaotically." Prometheus squinted his eyes Staring in the direction of Olympus.

"My child! I hope you have the power to protect yourself before Zeus notices it. I can only help you here." The Illuminati turned his head in the direction of Troy again, with a little sadness in his eyes.

"However, I have been feeling a little uneasy recently, and the source has just been determined not to be from Zeus. But besides Zeus, who else can make me feel uneasy?" Prometheus, the Titan God, fell into deep thought.

"Did I overlook something?"

......

"Brother, I'm sorry I lied to you." Seleus, who had achieved his goal, sat on the back of Pegasus, and suddenly felt embarrassed about using Pegasus to go to Prometheus' residence. "Actually, I am quite concerned about our current image. Even if you don't agree to take me to Lord Prometheus, I will still jump from the sky when I arrive in Troy."

Hearing this, Tenma couldn't help but rolled his eyes.Brother, what are you talking about now, if you don’t let me know, then nothing will happen?But this displeasure Pegasus did not show.Not to mention Tianma being cowardly as a beast, who would dare to express his dissatisfaction after knowing that the person playing him is a big boss who can easily kill him?Especially when the big guy's hands are hugging his neck now.

"However, the conversation with Lord Prometheus was delayed for too long just now, brother, can you speed up after getting tired?" Seleus asked Tianma with a shy face. He felt that he just took advantage of him, and now he is demanding It's a little unreasonable to try to make up for the work that was dropped due to your own personal affairs.

Little did they know that Pegasus, who had wanted to get rid of him for a long time,'s eyes lit up instantly after hearing his words, and it spread its wings, and it flew across the sky like a sharp arrow.

"call out------"

Pegasus' wings tore through the clouds, and the wind gathered around it, leading it and Seleus on its back to Troy at high speed.

......

At night, in the Greek camps around the city of Troy, the Greeks who had just been beaten by the Trojan soldiers led by Hector during the day like stray dogs decided to vent their anger on their prisoners of war.

"Come on, give this bitch to me!" a bearded Greek soldier yelled at his companions.

A woman wearing a sacrificial robe was thrown into the soldier's arms. The soldier hugged the woman, and kept pulling at the woman's clothes with one hand, while laughing loudly; "Still wearing a virgin robe? Just let me go first Taste it!"

The soldier tried to rip the woman's clothes. "You don't need this thing anymore!" The Greek on the side also booed loudly.

"Slap!!!" But she didn't want to, the woman in the arms of the soldier did not know where the strength came from, she broke free with one hand, and gave the soldier a hard slap.

The soldier was stunned, which undoubtedly aroused his anger.He threw the woman in his arms to his two companions, and let the companions support the woman, while he picked up a red-hot iron block with iron clamps.

"Let me teach you a good lesson! You Trojan bitch!"

The woman screamed in horror, but with her hands firmly held down by two soldiers, she could only watch desperately as the red-hot iron was getting closer and closer to her.

Suddenly, a big hand stretched out, and it just interrupted the soldier's hand holding the iron block.

"Awwhhhhh!!!" the soldier wailed in pain, but the owner of that hand didn't let him go.A demigod with green hair grabbed the soldier's broken arm with one hand, and strangled the soldier's neck with the other hand, and then slowly moved his hands to both sides...

"Butt... buckle... buckle, cough cough!" The soldier who was strangled couldn't even wail, he could only watch his arms and body separate further and further away.At this moment, he fully experienced the despair of the woman just now.

"Pfft!" Blood sprayed from the soldier's severed arm, the severe pain made the soldier almost faint, but there was no mercy in the demigod's eyes, he just ignored the soldier's blood flow less and less, and in the end he simply pinched and broke the soldier's neck.

The demigod's anger was not lessened by the death of the soldier. His murderous eyes fixed on the two soldiers who were stupefied by his brutality and foolishly holding the woman.The soldier who reacted after being aroused by the murderous aura hurriedly let go of the woman in the sacrificial robe, and the woman who had already lost her strength just fell to the ground like this.

The demigod hurriedly hugged his lover, his face softened at last, and he just turned his head and walked towards his tent under the horrified eyes of the Greek soldiers.

"Shhhhhhhh!"

But before the demigod took a few steps, a black shadow with a piercing sound descended from the sky, smashing the two soldiers who were lucky enough to have escaped into the ground, and stirred up dust all over the sky.

This sudden movement attracted the attention of all the Greeks around the camp.

"Sure enough, you can't have a glimmer of hope for the soldiers of this world. Even though they were defeated during the day, they can still do such ugly things at night!"
