Another day, Mount Olympus was shrouded in divine light, exotic flowers and plants exuded an eternal fragrance, and the tall and handsome god king Zeus sat leisurely on the throne of the god king in the main temple.
"The great king of the gods, the controller of thunder, I don't know if the devout believers on the earth can receive your blessing, give the thunder holy fire that will never be extinguished, and save mankind from the invasion of demonic beasts."
For the development of the new humanity, the wise prophet, Prometheus, came to the temple again and pleaded with Zeus to take the immortal fire from his artifact thunder and give it to mankind.
"Prometheus, the master of wisdom, I can grant the fire of thunder to the human beings on the earth, but the divine fire is so precious, in order to obtain it, the human race must show me, the king of the gods, faith and devotion that satisfies me."
Zeus sat on the throne, playing with the thunder given to him by the Crooklopes (Cyclops), the son of Gaia, who possessed incomparably exquisite craftsmanship, and spoke indifferently.
Prometheus' eyes flashed, his eyebrows were still gentle, his expression was still respectful, and there was no wave: "Great Zeus, please tell me how the new humans should show their devotion and faith in you."
"Quite simply, within a year, as long as the new humans offer me a thousand bulls as sacrifices, then this piety will be worthy of the unquenchable fire I give them."
Zeus, the king of the gods, the lion, opened his mouth widely, so that Prometheus, who had always been very good at qi cultivation kung fu, couldn't help but frown.
Did he hear you right? A thousand bulls?
Not to mention that the new humans have only just been born, and their productivity is not enough to support them to raise a thousand bulls.
Even if they can do it, human beings are no better than the gods, and although with the blessing of Heber they can stay young forever and free from disease, hunger is not within the scope of blessings, they also need to eat! Sacrifice this thousand bulls, then humans will also starve to death due to lack of food.
Not to mention that there are other gods of faith that also need to be worshipped.
Zeus's request for a thousand bulls is undoubtedly a great challenge to mankind, and this is clearly intentional!
If Prometheus did not know at this time that Zeus was not willing to give fire to mankind, then he simply changed gods with his brother Epimetheus (the later knower).
Prometheus lowered his head to endure the anger in his heart, he kept thinking about countermeasures in his heart, and after a moment, he raised his head, his expression had returned to his usual gentle manners, "Great God King, if this is your wish, then the new humanity will do its best to fulfill it. Only, for the sake of the new humans being so devoted to you, I hope you will give them the grace to leave a part of the sacrificial bull for their survival needs.
Zeus raised his eyebrows slightly, he did not expect Prometheus to back down to such a point. He didn't want to push too much and completely offend the prophet to death, after all, in his hands, he still held the prophecy of which heir he would overturn.
"Wise prophet, I am not a cold-blooded and heartless god, and I grant your prayer to allow the human beings of the earth to leave a part of the sacrifice for their living needs."
Thank you so much! Prometheus thanked Zeus in his heart for two generations.
"Thank you for your kindness and generosity, when the time comes, I will let the human beings divide the sacrifice into two parts, the great king of the gods, you can choose the one you like, and the rest is your gift to mankind."
After establishing this "deal", the two gods with different hearts separated peacefully and peacefully, and Prometheus came to earth to announce the decision of the great god-king to the new humans.
The news soon spread, and the gods soon learned that Zeus wanted humans to sacrifice a thousand cows in exchange for the immortal thunder fire.
"A thousand cows? Do the humans of the earth have such abilities? In the Temple of Life, Herb couldn't help sighing when she heard the news, and shook her head, her father, she was really so wanton, and she faintly remembered the legend of the god of wisdom fooling the king of the gods in her previous life, and she couldn't help but feel worried about this senior who was also a teacher and friend.
She wanted to help Prometheus, but Zeus had decreed that the gods were forbidden to use their divine powers to help humans, and the god-king's order, even if Heber was now the main god, would not be able to confront him openly.
But...... Remembering the artifact she had just obtained some time ago, the purple-eyed goddess felt that she could still provide a little help.
Time passes in a hurry, and tonight's night is ruled by Leto, the goddess of starless and moonless, and when the night passes, dawn comes as scheduled.
Far east began to gradually turn white, and the goddess of dawn, Eos, who was full of rose-colored light, appeared in the sky in a dawn chariot pulled by the clean day, her rose-colored hands sprinkled light to the sky, and the morning light turned into pieces of morning light, as delicate as roses and as bright as fire.
A little morning light fell silently into the world, in the temple of Prometheus, the founder of mankind, the prophet god of prophet.
"His Highness Prometheus." Heber called softly to the statue of the gods in the main hall.
The statue of Prometheus emitted a burst of light, and the invisible realm opened, sealing off this side of the space and isolating the prying eyes of the gods.
The morning light that fell on the ground bloomed with dazzling light, turning into a goddess with blonde hair and purple eyes, the morning light was the same origin as the new birth, and Heber used the power of the morning light of the goddess of dawn to lower the projection, avoiding the eyes and ears of the gods, and quietly came to the world to visit the prophet.
The statue of Prometheus also changed at this time, the true body of the god descended, and the handsome god of wisdom of Sven stepped down from the platform, looking at the goddess with blonde hair and purple eyes in front of him, and a warm smile flashed in his eyes.
"The noble goddess of life, the beautiful Highness Heber, I really didn't expect that under the order of your domineering father, you would dare to come and meet me, it seems that our friendship is stronger than I thought."
Heber was able to see himself under the pressure of Zeus, and Prometheus was still a little touched in his heart, this god race is not all selfish and cold-blooded gods.
"The one who knows that I have a good relationship with you is also staring at me, my real body is too eye-catching, and now it is only a projection."
When Herb said this, Prometheus found that the figure of this goddess carried a faint illusion, and if he didn't pay attention, he really couldn't notice it, but thought that the real body had come.
This goddess's attainment in the field of life has become more and more profound....
"Your Highness, to make a long story short, there are rumors between the gods that you and the king of the gods, a thousand bulls, even if human beings fight the strength of the whole race, they need to pay a great price, I came this time to provide you with some help."
As he spoke, the divine light in his hand shone, carved with intricate patterns, and the scepter decorated with ears of wheat and fruits made of gold was teleported from the sacred mountain.
"Mai Dian Golden Staff!?" Looking at the golden scepter in front of him, Prometheus' eyes couldn't help but flash surprise, "This artifact hasn't appeared in the sight of the gods since the fall of Kress... His Highness got his inheritance?
Prometheus looked at Herb, this legendary goddess can always surprise people, keep getting stronger, keep rising, this resilience and self-improvement, just like his most perfect creation human being...
"It's just a fluke." Heber smiled indifferently, not wanting to say more, although she admired this god, but the other party was too intelligent, for fear of saying too much about what the other party deduced from her own words, ruining her plan, "With the help of this artifact, the forage produced on the earth will double the growth rate of the cattle, even in winter it can still provide a steady stream of forage, so it is not impossible to raise a thousand bulls before next year." When
Zeus was held accountable, it would not be blamed on her, even Demeter, the goddess of agriculture, who did not know that the golden staff of the wheat point was in her hand.
“...... I will always remember His Highness's help to me and the new humanity, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay His Highness and swear to the Styx River. Prometheus took the artifact and said solemnly.
"Your Highness doesn't have to be like this, if His Highness hadn't lent me the Life Bottle to understand the Law, I wouldn't have been able to condense the Life Godhead so quickly, and now I should also help Your Highness." Moreover, I am also the creator of new human beings, and I cannot bear their suffering because of the willfulness of the god king. "
Although a large part of it is due to some unspeakable reasons, the benefits are really in hand, and it is impossible not to admit it.
"Well, I don't have much time for this projection." Herbert paused, looked at Prometheus, and said with some unease, "Your Highness Prometheus, since there is already a solution now, no matter what your original plan is, it is better to think about it again."
Prometheus just smiled when he heard this, but did not speak.
Herb was helpless, all she could do to remind her was this, and the final result could only depend on Prometheus' own decision, and the projection of the goddess dispersed, turned into a little morning light, and disappeared.
Prometheus picked up the scepter and looked up at the boundless sky beyond the temple, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, His Highness Heber was indeed kind, but she underestimated the anger and pride of an ancient god who had existed since the time of the Titans, and from the beginning, he planned to give Zeus a revenge...
In the sacred mountain, Heber in the temple of life opened his eyes and thought about it, even with the help of the golden rod of wheat, it is still a bit difficult for humans to cultivate a thousand bulls, and now that winter has appeared on the earth, this season will make the movement and efficiency of living beings sluggish.
...... Forget it, they were also human beings in their previous lives, and they are their creators in this life, so if they can help, they can help again.
"In the name of Heber, the goddess of life, my devotees, my devotion touches me, and in the coming year you will not have to offer me sacrifices of cattle and sheep, flowers and prayers will be the best offerings to me."
The voice of the goddess resounded in the temple above the earth, and the new human beings received the forgiveness from the goddess, and they all showed their gratitude, praising the kindness of the goddess, and a steady stream of faith drifted into the sacred mountain, and was accepted into the scepter of life by Heber.
And this operation?
This galloping faith made the gods dumbfounded again, and this faith came too easily, right?
"In the name of Hestia, the guardian of the household, exempt the believers from the sacrifice of cattle and sheep in the coming year..."
After Heber, the eldest daughter of Kronos and Rhea, who had lived in the world for a long time, and the eldest sister of the god king Zeus, Hestia, the goddess of stoves and households, also spoke.
This goddess also has a very special status in the sacred mountain, because tired of the pursuit of male gods, she chose to turn her love into selfless love, dedicated to the creatures of the earth, and made a vow to the Styx River to exist as a virgin goddess.
This goddess is one of the few gods on the sacred mountain who truly cares for humans and does not regard humans as slaves. As early as when she heard the news that Zeus asked humans to sacrifice a thousand bulls, she was already dissatisfied, although she wanted to help mankind, but the God King Iron Order was in front of her, she was helpless.
But Herb's declaration undoubtedly inspired her that it could not directly help humanity, so I would reduce the burden on humanity from the side.
I am in a good mood today, exempting the believers from their offerings, it is a matter of the gods' own beliefs, even Zeus is not convenient to interfere, now you can not control me.
This goddess is also really rigid, and she doesn't even bother to find an excuse to cover it up like Heber, and she directly opened her mouth to announce it, and she didn't save any face for her god king brother.
"In the name of the goddess of wisdom and craftsmanship, O my believers, in the year ahead, please pick the verdant olives as my offerings..."
After Hestia, Athena also spoke, and the wise goddess made a declaration even if she offended her father.
First, Prometheus promised her the right to create human women, and in the future humans will also have her share, if Zeus's operation makes the number of human beings plummet, it will be her who is distressed!
Second, that majestic faith is too fragrant, I'm sorry, Father God, we still don't want to contact in the short term, I'm afraid that human beings will misunderstand.
"In the name of the sun god..." "In the name of
Aquaman..."
In the sacred mountains, on the earth, the declarations of the gods rise and fall.
Some of these gods really pity mankind, some are dissatisfied with Zeus's only mention of his god name when he asks for sacrifices, and more are covetous of the majestic faith provided by humans.
Looking at the faith flowing into his godhead, the growing divine power made the gods narrow their eyes in enjoyment, where did they have the opportunity to obtain so much faith on weekdays.
No way, this wave is all set off by peers.
Great god king Zeus, I'm sorry, sacrifice you one god, happy thousands of families.
In the temple of the god king, Zeus's face is as black as the bottom of a pot, this group of rebel gods, sooner or later will find you to liquidate!
