Greek Mythology: The Spiritual Dominator

Chapter 164 The myth begins here

"You are so kind and wise."

After Hestia finished speaking, Prometheus couldn't help but praise. The gods also nodded after hearing this. This was indeed a good idea, but Hades, who had been silent, had a different opinion.

"My sister, your idea is very good, but how do we measure the proportion here?"

"Unless a mortal is standing opposite us, we can't judge whether a specific human is pious or unfaithful. On today's earth, the power of gods has been limited."

"What's more, if a devout human being is willing to sacrifice everything for God, but asks to obtain divinity and enjoy eternal life, is this equivalent?"

"To mortals, he gave everything. But to gods, no matter how pious a person is, he cannot compare with divinity."

The hall fell silent again, and I have to say that Pluto's words made sense.

The divinity that makes a life immortal is insignificant to God. But the divinity that allows a hundred people to live forever, the powerful main god, will be damaged.

"Lady Themis."

In the silence, the God King spoke.

"You are a fair judge and a supervisor of justice, so I hope to use the power of [Golden Scales] to make a ruling on this."

"I have no objection." Goddess of Justice nodded: "But the [Golden Scale] cannot measure the size of faith. This magical power seems difficult to be controlled by artifacts."

"So if you're going to put 'human piety' on one side of the scale, you need to have something more representative of piety."

Frowning his brows, the God King hesitated. If faith itself cannot be measured, and it is impossible for the gods to personally come to the mortal world to sense it one by one, then how can we know the purity of mortal faith?

"Then measure it by the sacrifices they offer to the gods." Prometheus suddenly said: "If a person is willing to give more to the gods than what is left to himself, then such a person must be pious. of."

"For such a pious mortal, the gods should naturally respond to encourage more humans to learn from him."

"good."

His face softened, and Zeus thought this made sense.

Regarding faith, the gods were also involved for the first time. They have no experience, so they can only try their best.

"Then let it be like this. Those who believe in God will be rewarded according to their piety. Those who don't believe in it, let it go."

"As the God King, I first make a promise here: Whoever believes in me, there is nothing I can't give him. What mortals can get from me only depends on the degree of their piety."

First, he made a promise, but Zeus was careful not to make a specific promise. After all, as the keeper of the oath, his promise itself is binding.

Such a broad statement also helps him adjust according to the situation.

"Then I will allow the devout to light the flame. From now on, the authority of [Guardian] will be accompanied by the flame, so that the disasters in the world cannot come close."

Hestia also made a promise. Although her authority of [Fire] only involves the burning of matter, [Guardian] can give it another meaning.

On the side, after her sister finished speaking, Demeter also followed suit.

"Then I will give them evergreen fruit trees that will never wither, so that they will never go hungry."

Even if one cannot exert divine power in the mortal world, this macroscopic application of authority can still be accomplished on Mount Olympus. Demeter believed that mortal beings valued food more than the rest.

Seeing that the three gods had set an example, the gods followed suit and made promises one by one to attract human beings' faith. After all, as the Illuminati said, the obedience brought about by oppression is indeed only superficial. If there is no belief from the heart, even if humans worship them every day, it will be difficult to generate the power of belief.

"Very good, then it's settled."

With a smile on his face, when everything was over, the God King looked around the gods, and finally stopped at Prometheus.

"Son of Iapitus, go and return to the creatures you created and preach to them the greatness of the gods. I think you can do this well."

"Your will is honored."

Prometheus was also very satisfied. He had foreseen the wonderful future of mankind. The gods have given blessings, and human beings should become the leaders of all spirits. So he left the sacred mountain and flew towards the human world.

······

The gods dispersed, but Zeus remained in the hall.

Although he did a lot today, the God King was actually just pushing the boat along.

He actually didn't show that he cared about the belief in bronze humans. But since this attracted the attention of other gods, he simply called them over.

After all, among the gods present, he was the only one who relied on the authority of the God King and sensed the power of the Illuminati that was growing almost every moment.

Although this is also related to his own weak supernatural power, this increase is still too fast.

"Prometheus, you are right. True faith is like children to their mothers. It does not come from fear, but from love. But tell me, what kind of gift is needed to make children turn their backs on their parents and turn around?" And what about reverence for other beings?”

Whispering to himself, a person who can betray his parents can also betray others. Such a person cannot be said to have faith. Perhaps the huge benefits would convince them, but Zeus didn't want to pay the price, so he didn't bring up the idea of ​​creating a woman until the end of the meeting.

Because if even women were created and bronze humans were allowed to continue like this, then who would be the biggest beneficiary of faith, him or Prometheus?

"In one or two hundred years, and no more than three hundred years at most, the number of humans who cannot reproduce is still very limited. Even if Prometheus still left some materials for making humans, he can only create another round at most. After a few years, he will find a reason to let him Just go finish it.”

"In the next generation, I want mankind to create itself with the help of God. In this way, the mortal Creator will no longer be the Creator."

Making a decision in secret, thinking about the next generation of humans, the God King suddenly had a wonderful idea.

He reached out and touched the surrounding space, and an invisible network emerged. Elements are bound by a network and move along a specific trajectory. As long as the corresponding 'string' is plucked, different elemental changes will be triggered to take place in the material world.

That's [Magic Network]. In the past, Zeus had long studied this thing out of curiosity about witchcraft, and the [Magic Network] has indeed never refused the use of any being.

But in the end, the God-King came to a regrettable conclusion. These elements are of no use to God. Even if divine power is combined with them, it will only turn it into a weaker force, an energy that is diluted and only has some of the characteristics of divine power.

But in today's world, Zeus suddenly realized that being weaker than the gods might not be a bad thing.

".It's not urgent yet."

"There is no need for it now. There are still very few humans. It is not yet time for the gods to divide their territory among humans. Let's wait until the next generation. When they spread all over the earth, then we will really need it."

"No matter how simple a gift is, those who believe in me should be able to pick up the sword and fight for my reputation in the world."

Holding the handle of the throne tightly, Zeus knew that the so-called 'shared' faith could not last long after all. Just like someone who listens to the orders of several kings at the same time is bound to be disloyal, unless he is like the golden humans of the past, those who believe in several gods at the same time will definitely not be too pious.

At this time, when the number of humans is large enough, this division will inevitably occur. As the God King, as long as Zeus doesn't take action first, justice will always be on his side.

If his followers are able to kill other people's followers, it can be attributed to the spontaneous actions of mortals. At that time, if a god wants to intervene, the god king will be able to stop him with great justice.

A sword in one hand and grace in the other. The sword comes from mortals and the grace belongs to gods. This is the ideal world of Zeus.

"Soon."

"It's been hundreds of years, and Mother Earth probably hasn't woken up yet."

Whispering softly, the God King secretly made a plan. Of course, the gods who attended the meeting before also had different ideas.

The Illuminati returned to the human world and taught the newborn humans all kinds of knowledge. Pluto returned to the underworld and watched the undead worshiping the moon in silence. Poseidon thought hard, trying to get some humans that were only his own in the future. Near the place where the bronze human being was born, there were also figures walking slowly.

Perhaps for the present world, the replacement of the God King represents the changes of the era. But for Chaos, perhaps now is the beginning of the Third Era.

All myths began from this point, whether true or false, they are all open to future generations to comment on. As for the more distant past, the disasters at the turn of the era were buried in the long river of history, leaving only a few words, making it difficult to guess and identify.
