Cheating players in Marvel

Chapter 1622 EP1624. A conscientious tour guide

In addition to the scenery on the Aegean Sea, the most attractive tourist resource in Greece is the Acropolis standing on the hill.

It is no exaggeration to say that among the guests who choose to travel to Greece, at least half of them will go to the Acropolis. After all... Just like going to the capital, you must see the Forbidden City and climb the Great Wall. There are also places in Athens

A similar saying goes, 'If you haven't been to the Acropolis, you haven't been to Athens'.

Therefore, no matter what tourists originally came for, as long as they have enough time, they will inevitably add this item to their itinerary.

Unless there are special circumstances, such as the weather is too bad, or the Acropolis is undergoing maintenance, it is temporarily closed and no tourists are allowed to enter.

As a time-traveler, Shi Xiaolei's luck has always been pretty good. During his trip to Athens this time, he did not encounter any special circumstances that would make people feel unhappy.

After renting a car and hiring a eloquent tour guide, just over an hour later, the group arrived at the foot of the mountain and started walking towards the Acropolis on the top of the mountain.

"The semicircular building on the right is the Atticus Concert Hall. It was built in the Roman era and is an outdoor theater that can accommodate more than 6,000 spectators. Although it has been many years, it has been repaired and maintained.

Because of this, the function of this concert hall is still very good. Until now, some performances are still held here occasionally."

"The semicircular design is very clever. No matter where they sit, the audience can watch the performance on the stage and hear the performers' voices. Of course, compared with the modern concert hall, it is in a certain location.

It still lags behind in some aspects, such as there is no ceiling to protect it from wind and rain, the stone seats are not as comfortable as sofas, etc.”

"In short, due to the weather and some other factors, performances held at Atticus Concert Hall are generally scheduled in the summer. Er, I mean at night after it gets dark. If it is broad daylight, there should not be many

The audience is willing to go to the show under the bright sun. After all, it is open-air, there is no air conditioning to cool down, and the seats will be hot from the sun."

"Oh, by the way, everyone looks straight ahead along the road on the right. About two hundred meters away, there is a building ruins of the same shape. Did you see it? Yes, there is also a theater over there, and its name is

The Theater of Dionysus. As an extra introduction, Dionysus is the god of wine in Greek mythology, so the theater is also called the Theater of Dionysus.”

"Some tourists have asked me why the Atticus Music Hall looks quite complete, but the Dionysus Theater not far away looks more dilapidated. Why has it not been restored like the Atticus Music Hall?

How about restoring it to its original state like a theater? In fact, the reason is very simple, just like we did not repair the acropolis on the mountain, but kept it in a semi-destroyed state. The reason why the Dionysus Theater is kept as it is is to preserve this

It’s a sense of historical sediment that has been accumulated over the years.”

"Besides, the functions of the Atticus Hall and the Dionysus Theater are basically the same. It is enough to repair one of them and have one that can be used normally. Haha, that's it.

Just like there is no need for two bathrooms in one room, in our opinion, there is no need to restore the Dionysus Theater.”

Before I even entered the mountain gate, I was already talking a lot.

I have to say that the tour guide hired by Shi Xiaolei and his group was quite responsible.

Well, it may also be because Shi Xiaolei paid the deposit in advance and the money was generous, which stimulated the tour guide's enthusiasm for work, so she took the trouble to mention so many details and explain them in such detail.

"It feels like people in ancient Greece liked to watch plays." Through the tour guide's explanation, Shi Xiaolei couldn't help but think of the scene of ancient people sitting in the stands watching performances.

Think back to the arena we saw in Asgard and the circular arena on Saka...

Suddenly there was an inexplicable sense of déjà vu. Unable to hold back, Shi Xiaolei suddenly let out two chuckles.

"Yes." The proud tour guide did not notice the change in Shi Xiaolei's expression and was still explaining excitedly: "Since ancient times, we Greeks have loved art very much. The Atticus Concert Hall was built in 5 BC

century, the Dionysus Theater was even earlier. It was built in the 6th century BC. In other words, as early as more than 2,500 years ago, stage performance art began to appear here and developed to a scale that was very popular.

."

"I forgot to introduce it just now. Can you guess how many spectators the Dionysus Theater can accommodate? Hey, it's more than 17,000 people. You are from the United States. Have you been to the Staples Center in Los Angeles? That one

The auditorium in the venue only has 19,000 seats. Compared with the Dionysus Theater built more than 2,500 years ago, it only has 2,000 more seats."

"Oh, by the way, when it comes to Staples Center, I believe everyone will think of the Los Angeles Lakers, which uses that venue as their home court, and the scenes during basketball games will come to mind, right?" As he said,

While raising her arm and pointing to a building on the mountain, the tour guide naturally led the topic to the next part: "On the jerseys worn by basketball players, you can often see a √-shaped logo. I believe everyone knows it.

, that is the trademark of Nike. But what I want to ask is, do you know the meaning of that trademark? Please look over there. That building is called the Temple of Athena Victory. It is specially used to worship the goddess of victory, Nike.

"

"In Greek, the name of the goddess is Νκη, which translated into Latin is Nike. Yes, the name of Nike is derived from the goddess of victory in our Greek mythology. After all, it specializes in the production of equipment for competitive games.

Well, it feels quite fitting to give it the meaning of pursuing victory. Come on, I will take you to visit the temple used to worship the goddess of victory, Niki."

Shi Xiaolei didn't really care about the relationship between Nike and the Goddess of Victory.

After listening to the tour guide's introduction, the first thing that came to his mind was actually a golden scepter.

That's right, it's the scepter of the goddess of victory in the hand of the goddess Athena in "Saint Seiya".

Thinking back again to the results created by the scepter in the story...

"Let's go and have a look." Shi Xiaolei took a step forward and followed the tour guide enthusiastically up the steps up the mountain.
