Reversing Greek Mythology

Chapter 217 Admetus is belatedly arriving

Seeing that Luo Yin was able to swallow the fire of the sun, Prometheus couldn't help but widen his eyes in horror.

Because in the mythical world, the sun god is almost always the supreme god who is above all the gods.

Although the sun god Helios is not the king of the gods in Greek mythology, in his territory, Helios is the unquestionable supreme god.

If you calculate the territory area and population, even Zeus and Poseidon combined would not be able to defeat the sun god Helios in the mythical era.

In real history, the main reason why Prometheus led the Dorians across the Peloponnese Peninsula and trampled Zeus and Poseidon underfoot was probably because Helios squeezed out Prometheus' living space. As a result, Prometheus had to go south to find a new living space.

It can be concluded from this that Prometheus can defeat Zeus and Poseidon, and Helios can defeat Prometheus.

No matter how much those who make up myths praise Zeus, they cannot change the fact that Zeus cannot defeat Helios in reality.

"You are actually a sun god——"

Prometheus looked at Luo Yin with disbelief and said.

"The Greeks living in hot areas cannot feel the power of cold winter, so they do not worship the sun. Only the nomads in the north are afraid of the cold winter and have fanatical worship of the sun god. King Haemon of Thebes, if you are really a pillar Sun God, you can never be a native Greek god. You are a foreign god like us. Why do you have the status of the king of Thebes as a foreign god?"

"I have no obligation to answer you."

Luo Yin said expressionlessly.

"Prometheus! Although I am not Helios, I can still remind you of the fear of being dominated by the sun god. For thousands of years, the myths fabricated by humans have given you the power to steal heavenly fire. Now I Let you feel the true power of the sun’s fire!”

While speaking, white-gold wings stretched out from Luo Yin's back, and endless light and flames bloomed, covering Prometheus and Aeolus.

As the god of fire who was transformed from the ancestor god of the nomads, Prometheus himself is not the god of the sun or the god of fire, so his body cannot resist the burning of fire.

After Luo Yin's sun fire enveloped Prometheus' body, Prometheus immediately screamed in pain and fled the battlefield as quickly as possible.

As the God of Wind, Aeolus was also unable to use his divine wind to fight against Luo Yin's solar fire, and could only use his divine speed to escape from Luo Yin.

If destroying Prometheus and Aeolus was a simple matter, Luo Yin would definitely choose to hunt them down.

But in fact, Zeus suppressed Ares and Artemis for hundreds of years, but failed to destroy Ares and Artemis.

So after Prometheus and Aeolus escaped, Luo Yin did not chase them. Instead, he transformed into a human form again, brandished the divine spear and rushed towards Peleus's camp.

Peleus's camp.

Seeing that Luo Yin refused to let him go, Peleus could only order five hundred cavalry to return to Mount Pelion, and then he himself fled back to the Phthia area with two thousand infantry.

After Luo Yin arrived at the military camp, he looked at the direction in which the Lapith cavalry and the two thousand soldiers led by Peleus were escaping, and finally stopped and did not continue to pursue them.

Because Luo Yin wanted to use his own power to destroy the five hundred Lapitai cavalry or the two thousand soldiers led by Peleus, he could only use the power of the gods in violation of the rules.

The city of Iolkas.

Luo Yin returned to the city with 300 Theban soldiers, more than 100 prisoners and more than 400 horses. Acastus invited Luo Yin to the palace with awe and gratitude.

Palace hall.

After Luo Yin and Acastus sat down face to face, Acastus asked anxiously.

"Great King Haemon! What happened to the miracle that just happened? Did you turn into a god, or did a god transform into you and fight with Prometheus and Aeolus? "

"Acastus, you don't need to care about what just happened. Because my identity is not a god, but Haemon, the king of Thebes, so you only need to treat me as the king of Thebes."

Luo Yin said with a faint smile.

"Even if the tribe ruled by Peleus's grandfather is the most powerful tribe in Thessaly, a thousand cavalry will be the maximum strength of this tribe. Next, I will lead the soldiers to Mount Pelion to conquer the rule of Chiron tribe. You also gather soldiers to destroy Peleus’ kingdom of Phthia!”

There is no doubt that the city of Iolkas is the most powerful city-state in Thessaly.

If Peleus had not received the help of the most powerful nomadic tribe in Thessaly, Peleus's Phthian kingdom would not have the strength to challenge the city of Iolkas.

Before this war broke out, if Acastus had enough time to raise an army, even if Peleus's Phthian Kingdom and the most powerful nomadic tribes in Thessaly united, it would be difficult to defeat Iolchus. city.

After listening to Luo Yin's words, Acastus nodded and said.

"The nobles all believed that Peleus would become the new king, so they refused to provide their soldiers. Now that Peleus has become the defeated party, the nobles will readily agree to my call, allowing me to lead tens of thousands of troops to the Peleus’ revenge.”

Then, Acastus said hesitantly.

"Great King Haemon! You have helped the city of Iolkas to resolve the crisis. I want to give you my young and beautiful sister Alcestis in accordance with our agreement-"

Before Acastus finished speaking, a palace guard ran into the hall in a panic and said.

"King Acastus, your cousin Admetus, the king of Frye, is here."

As soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man with a thick beard burst into the hall and said.

"Dear Acastus, your messenger told me that you promised to marry sister Alcestis to me, so I immediately came to your aid with my soldiers. Now I have come to Iolcus City, please send Alcestis to the safer city of Fry as agreed!"

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, Acastus said expressionlessly.

"Brother Admetus, you did not help me as promised, so I cannot marry Alcestis to you. Now my sister Alcestis belongs to King Haemon of Thebes."

Acastus' reaction was expected.

Admetus walked up to Luo Yin and said with a friendly smile.

"Young Haemon, I am Admetus. We met once when Hercules married your sister Megara."

Admetus was one of the Argonauts who captured the Golden Fleece, one of the Calydon heroes who hunted the Calydon boar, and was a friend of Hercules.

But his most famous deed is that he had a loyal and virtuous wife Alcestis who was willing to sacrifice her life for him.

Looking at Admetus who was friendly to him, Luo Yin said expressionlessly.

"If you want me to give Alcestis to you, then you should give up this idea. Although I have not met Alcestis, let alone the idea of ​​making her my wife and concubine, I Even if I keep her as a beautiful vase, I will never give her to other men."
