Reversing Greek Mythology

The vast area of ​​the Xitai Empire also means that the Xitai Empire is surrounded by enemies on all sides.

In addition, the plateau land ruled by the Xitai Empire was barren, and land and population had to be plundered from other places. The history of the Xitai Empire is a thick history of war.

The Kashka people, who are located on the southern coast of the Black Sea - the Eastern Black Sea Mountains, are one of the old enemies that threaten the Xitai Empire from the north.

After hearing Medea asking him to deal with the Kashka people, Luo Yin pinched her cute little chin with his right hand and said.

"Are you making a request to me on behalf of the other you? I didn't expect that you and the other you would have such a close connection."

Medea said calmly.

"We are now in the mythical world of Xitai, and she and I originate from the same god, so we will have a strong feeling for each other."

Before the Trojan War, the western part of the Asia Minor Peninsula only had trade exchanges with mainland Greece.

As an area that nominally submitted to the Xitai Empire and was once conquered by the Xitai Empire, the western part of the Asia Minor Peninsula is obviously part of the Xitai mythological world.

In this land, it is not surprising that Medea and Penthesilea, who originated from the same goddess, have a special connection.

Luo Yin hesitated and said.

"Although I am not interested in getting involved in the hegemonic war between the Xitai Empire and the Egyptian Empire and the Assyrian Empire, I do not mind helping the Xitai Empire. After my combined fleet is formed, I will let them treat the Kashka people as actual combatants. The goal of practice.”

"Brother - let me thank you on her behalf!"

After Medea finished speaking with a smile, she moved her lips towards Luo Yin.

While Luo Yin and Medea were enjoying their world.

Hesione's priests also conveyed oracles to the nobles of Troy, telling them that the goddess Hesione supported Luo Yin to become king, and that Hesione would marry Luo Yin and give Luo Yin the power to rule Troy. Yin Cheng’s legitimacy.

In this world where kingship is divinely authorized, although there are kings who claim to be the son of God or the adopted son of God, it is rare for a king to become the husband of a patron saint.

After all, anyone with a normal IQ would think that the king marries the patron goddess, which is an act of blasphemy against the goddess.

The nobles of Troy City gathered excitedly at the temple. As if Hesione had anticipated their reaction, he appeared in person and told the nobles that he would marry Luo Yin.

If the priests of Hesione were threatened by Luo Yin and claimed that Luo Yin would become the husband of the goddess, the nobles of Troy would definitely defend the goddess Hesione.

Since it was Hesione who took the initiative to marry Luo Yin, the nobles naturally could not say anything against it and could only accept Luo Yin as the husband of the goddess and the king of Troy with complicated emotions.

Five years passed in the blink of an eye.

In these five years, Luoyin not only managed the Kingdom of Colchis and the Kingdom of Troy, turned the Kingdom of Colchis into a grain production base, and turned the Kingdom of Troy into a center of grain trade, but also jointly The fleet was successfully built, making the Black Sea an inland sea dominated by the combined fleet.

The old enemy harassing the Western Empire from the northern border became the target of the combined fleet's actual combat training, allowing the sailors of the combined fleet to become warriors with actual combat experience.

Five years later now.

Luo Yin's combined fleet can already enter the Mediterranean from the Black Sea like a ferocious beast emerging from its cage, competing for maritime hegemony with the original maritime hegemon of the Mediterranean.

Kingdom of Colchis.

The city of Kitea.

royal palace.

Luo Yin was sitting on the throne deep in the hall, receiving envoys from Greece.

As the trade between the Kingdom of Colchis and mainland Greece deepened, the city-states in Greece were eager to obtain more food to support the growing population of each city-state.

Luo Yin used the same rhetoric to deal with the envoys from other city-states. After all the envoys left in disappointment, the envoys from the Kingdom of Calydon came to Luo Yin.

"Prince Meleager! On behalf of your father Oeneus, I invite you to return to your hometown, because King Oeneus is old and you are the first heir to the throne."

After listening to the Calydon messenger's words, Luo Yin suddenly thought of something and nodded subconsciously.

"Although I am now the King of Colchis and King of Troy, I do not mind adding the title of King of Calydon. I will return to the Kingdom of Calydon immediately and inherit the throne that belongs to me."

After the Calydonian envoy left with satisfaction, Luo Yin also returned to his palace and told Circe and Medea the news of his departure.

"Why did my brother leave us to inherit the palm-sized Kingdom of Calydon?"

Medea asked Luo Yin full of doubts.

"I heard that the entire Kingdom of Calydon is basically a mountainous area. It is a poor and weak city-state. My brother actually wanted to leave my sister and me in order to inherit a worthless city-state. Could it be that he is the patron goddess of the Kingdom of Calydon? Are you attracting my brother?"

Although in Greek mythology, Meleager, who was both an Argonaut and the leader of the Calydon heroes, and Tydeus, who became an immortal god, were both princes of the Calydon kingdom, but Calydon The kingdom is indeed a weak city-state like the Kingdom of Arcadia.

The real reason why Luo Yin wanted to return to the Kingdom of Calydon was obviously not to inherit the throne of the Kingdom of Calydon.

Faced with Circe's questioning gaze and Medea's questioning, Luo Yin could only explain.

"I want to return to the Kingdom of Calydon because King Oeneus of Calydon is about to die, and a civil strife will break out around the throne of Calydon. Although I have no interest in ruling the Kingdom of Calydon, I must ensure that I belong to My throne will not be taken away by anyone else. When I hand over the throne of Calydon to my cheap brother Tydeus, I will come back to be your husband."

Luo Yin made a promise with a serious expression, and then Circe and Medea agreed to Luo Yin's return to his hometown.

the next day.

Luo Yin returned to his hometown on a merchant ship bound for Greece.

The port of the city of Kitea.

Circe and Medea stood on the river bank and watched Luo Yin's boat go away, their eyes full of reluctance.

Luo Yin stood at the stern of the boat and looked at Circe and Medea. He had a hunch in his heart that he might not be able to fulfill his promise and return to Circe and Medea.

"Circe! Medea! Do you have the same premonition as me?"

After the merchant ship filled with food entered the Black Sea from the Faris River, Luo Yin came to the bow of the ship and looked ahead, recalling the information about the Kingdom of Calydon in his heart.

The Kingdom of Calydon is located west of Delphi.

This basically mountainous area is very similar to the Acadia region of the Peloponnese.

Moreover, the Calydon region has a deep connection with Artemis, the goddess of hunting, the original patron saint of the Arcadia region.

Luo Yin wanted to return to the Calydon Kingdom because, according to his original destiny, the Calydon Wild Boar Hunting Incident was going to happen in the Calydon Kingdom.

Meleager, the prince of Calydon, will fall in love with Atalanta, the incarnation of Artemis, at this time, and even pay the price of his life for Atalanta.

Thinking of Meleager's fate of becoming Atalanta's licking dog, Luo Yin murmured with a confident smile.

"Now that I am Meleager, I want to see how fate will make me fall madly in love with Atalanta."
