Greek Mythology: I Am Zeus

Above the earth, there was darkness.

In the realm of the gods, there are many intelligent beings, but only snake people need to use flames day and night to illuminate the night, cook food, and perform sacrifices.

Zeus saw that the snake people in the world were horrified to find that all the flames disappeared in an instant. They looked at the extinguished stove and the altar, talking a lot.

They drilled the wood one after another, trying to rekindle the fire, but no matter how long they tried, there was no spark.

Fear and despair spread in the hearts of the snake people, but they did not change their belief in Prometheus. They still hate Olympus.

Zeus was staring at the earth, when an ethereal voice sounded behind him.

"God King, I heard the sound of wailing all over the earth. What happened?"

She is the goddess of agriculture, Demeter, and the wife of Zeus.

The characteristics of Demeter are that she is the richest goddess in Olympus, and that she is tall and plump, which is completely different from the slender Metis and Athena. Her figure is representative of the prosperity of agriculture.

"It's the snake people, creatures created by Prometheus, they don't believe in Olympus, I want to punish them.

There was a flash of light in Demeter's eyes, she stared at the ground, and after a long time, she turned her head.

"Great god-king, this is not enough..." Demeter looked at Zeus thoughtfully.

100 "What do you think?"

Demeter smiled, and she raised the golden ears of wheat in her left hand, and divine power condensed from her hand.

The golden ear of wheat in her hand instantly withered, Demeter rubbed out a black seed and blew it towards the ground.

"Since then, no crops can be grown on the land. Lack of food, what will they do when they are hungry?"

Thunder was shining in Zeus' eyes, and he stared at the earth.

Only a moment has passed in the court of God, but decades have passed on the earth. Over the past few decades, the snake people have become accustomed to the days without flames. They began to eat raw food and went to sleep as soon as it got dark.

Then, all of a sudden, they found that all the crops in the field were not growing. No matter how full of good seeds, no matter how carefully cared for, it is impossible for plants to grow from the earth.

Soon, all food was eaten, and famine began to spread among the snake people.

They started hunting wild beasts crazily, eating raw beast meat, citing beast blood, and even killing other tribes of creatures. But they still believed in Prometheus and the hatred of Olympus was growing.

"This is not enough." A brisk voice sounded, and Artemis stepped forward, the huge silver bow in her hand was shining, followed by the giant white wolf.

"They are catching their prey, eating their flesh, and drinking their blood." Artemis smiled, "I order that all the wild beasts in the heaven and the earth enter the depths of the dense forest, and must not appear in the sight of all living beings. .

Artemis is the goddess of hunting, and all the beasts in the world obey her orders.

Zeus felt the neighing sound of countless beasts in the sky and the earth, marching towards the depths of the forest.

A moment in the court of God, but a hundred years have passed on the earth.

Zeus looked at the earth, and he saw that all the beasts were hidden in the depths of the jungle, and could never be found again.

The desperate snake people can no longer catch their prey, and the animals on land, birds in the air, and even fish in the water are all hidden. The snake people were extremely hungry, their eyes were red, and they began to kill each other, and the weak ones became the food of the strong ones.

They organized themselves to attack other creatures crazily to get food from them. In God's Domain, wars were raging everywhere, and wars provoked by snake people were everywhere.

But they still believed in Prometheus, their hatred for Olympus was even stronger, and they cursed Zeus every day.

So, another hundreds of years.

"They can still eat raw food without flames to cook food. Without flames to bring light, they can still walk in the dark." In the courtyard, Themis came over.

Ever since she learned about Zeus' love affair, Themis has become very cold, making her even more glamorous and beautiful.

Themis still yearns for Zeus' love in her heart, but as proud as she is, she will never take the initiative to show affection. Zeus looked at the beautiful Themis, and (cfdb) thought about how to get back together with her.

However, now is not the time.

"But when the blizzard comes, but there is no fire to keep warm?" Themis's eyes became colder, she stared at the earth, the divine power in her hands was concentrated, and a white divine light appeared

Themis threw the divine light in his hand to the sky, and the divine light spread out in the air, forming a huge snow cloud, and blizzards fell all over God's Domain.

Blizzard seems to have wisdom, they will only fall in the gathering places of snake people, while other places in God's Domain are still full of birds and flowers.

In the place where the snake people gather, the rivers are all frozen, and the blizzard falls non-stop. It only takes one night to submerge a mountain peak. The temperature plummeted, and the cold wind was like a knife, blowing crazily across the land.

The snake people clothed themselves in all the furs they could find, but the biting wind still blew them, and the flames died, the only way to keep warm!

The snake people began to freeze to death in large numbers, but they still did not change their belief in Prometheus.

This belief is that they were carved in the bones when they were born and cannot be changed.

"It seems that destruction is the only way." Metis, who was standing beside Zeus, sighed, and she said quietly, "God King, your kindness is enough.

As long as the snake people are willing to give up their belief in Prometheus, Zeus will forgive them and let them live in the domain of gods.

But they refused to give up their belief in Prometheus, even though Zeus gave countless opportunities.

Zeus can no longer give extra mercy "The time of destruction has come

"That's good." Zeus nodded.

On the ground, endless white snow fell, and all the beasts ran into the forest and never appeared again. No matter how much you try to light the dry wood, the flame will never start because Zeus has taken away all sources of fire.

But there are still a small number of snake people, lingering on the earth.

Zeus called Apollo to come.

"Let the sun go out for a while." Zeus said to Apollo.

So, Apollo no longer drove the sun chariot, and sailed from the east to the west of the world.

So, the last snake people found with great horror that the sun had not risen again, and there was darkness between the sky and the earth.

They screamed frantically, they gathered in the temple of Prometheus, prayed and shouted frantically to Prometheus, begging their god to bring them light!

Their fear and resentment evaporated from the ground, turned into a black gas, and rushed to the sky!

"Prometheus, come and steal the fire!" Zeus looked at the golden brazier in front of him, in which all the sources of fire in God's Domain were burning, "Come and steal the holy fire of Olympus, I'll wait for you here!"

Then, Zeus felt an extremely powerful divine power appear in the air!

It's Prometheus!.
