The Beginning of the End: All Humans Are Destroyed, I Forcefully Chase the Valkyries

Chapter 166 The road to becoming a god
However, Hercules can be ranked among the twelve gods in Olympus, and it is not without reason that his position has been stable for so long.

On the one hand, as the illegitimate son of Zeus, Zeus has to win over him no matter what, otherwise, after the scandal is revealed one day, he, Zeus, will be ashamed to face the elders of Olympus!

On the other hand, there is absolutely no way to ignore the illustrious military exploits that Hercules made during his days in the human world.

Generally speaking, in the world of creationism, if an ordinary human wants to get rid of the mortal body, there are only a few methods, such as cultivating immortals, having adventures, or making some big noise under the nose of the gods and getting the gods to pay attention. If you arrive, you might have the opportunity to be promoted to the realm of gods.

And it was in this way that Hercules became a god.

And Hercules' road to becoming a god is not very long, but it is definitely not smooth sailing.

As the son of Zeus, Hercules can be said to be born with supernatural power. He has been an absolute warrior seed since he was a child, and he has fully confirmed this point of view until he grows up.

When he grew up, Hercules got all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique, art and labor. Castor and centaur Chiron taught him various martial arts and knowledge.Apollo's gray-haired son—Rinos taught him to read and write. Hercules showed his talent and ability in learning, which was completely inherited from his father Zeus, but he couldn't bear the boring study life. North was another impatient teacher.Once, he beat Hercules for no reason, and Hercules grabbed his harp and threw it at the teacher's head. Linus fell to the ground and died immediately after being hit hard!

Hercules regretted it very much, but he was still brought before the court.He was acquitted by the upright and learned judge Radamantis.

A judge has issued a new law that exempts anyone who kills someone in self-defense.

But the honest man Amphitryon, the son raised by Zeus, was worried that his powerful son would commit similar crimes in the future, so he sent him to the countryside to herd cattle.

Before going to life, he rejected the temptation of the goddess of virtue and was determined to follow the advice of the goddess of virtue. He was determined to choose the road of "virtue".Before long, he found an opportunity to do good deeds.

At that time, Greece was densely covered with jungles and swamps, full of ferocious lions, wild boars and other evil beasts.Therefore, eradicating these ferocious beasts is the lifelong dream of every generation of Greeks, and now it is Hercules' turn to fulfill this wish that has lasted for several generations.

Hercules was destined to face this daunting task.When he heard that in the pasture of King Amphitryon, at the foot of Mount Kiteron, a terrible lion was doing evil, the voice of "virtue" rang in the young hero's ears.

Guided by the goddess of virtue, he made a decision immediately, and armed himself, climbed up the barren mountain, killed the lion, peeled off the lion's skin, put it on his shoulders, and then cut off the lion's head to make a helmet.

When he returned home from hunting, he encountered people who were oppressed by exorbitant taxes. Hercules tied up the envoys who collected the taxes and sent them back to their country.

And the behind-the-scenes mastermind who instructs these tax collectors to collect taxes will definitely not give up. He asked the king to hand over the culprit. The king was afraid of the opponent's power and was ready to meet the opponent's request.Hercules mobilized a group of brave young men to resist the enemy with him.

However, the people did not have a single weapon. In order to prevent these small neighboring countries from rebelling, all weapons were confiscated.Seeing this, the goddess Athena called Hercules into the temple and armed him with her own armor. There were still many weapons in the temple, which were captured by their ancestors in the war, as spoils of war to sacrifice to the gods.

The youths who accompanied him were armed by Hercules one after another, and Fang followed Hercules to set off.Even so, they only have a small number of troops, while the enemy has a huge army with strong troops.The two armies met on a narrow road. In this small area, although the opponent had many soldiers, they couldn't use them at all. The huge army was completely defeated by an army far outnumbered. In this war, Hercules His nominal father, Amphitryon, was also killed by an arrow in the battle.

After the war, Hercules, who had defeated the tyrant, advanced quickly. He rushed into the city and burned the palace and destroyed the city.To thank him, King Creon of Thebes married his daughter Megara to him.

The gods also gave the demigod hero many gifts: Hermes gave him a sword, Apollo gave him a bow, Hephaestus gave him a golden quiver, and Athena gave him a golden quiver. Give him a new bronze shield.

The joy of victory is always short-lived.

Alcmene, who lost her legal husband, remarried to the judge Rhadamanthes.

In spite of all the intricacies of it all, Hercules thought it was a pretty good ending for Alcmene.

But Hercules has always been plagued by bad luck, and the name of this bad luck is Hera, the Queen of Heaven.

Because she regards this bastard of Zeus as a threat, and also hates the hybrid god from the bottom of her heart, the Queen Hera has been stumbling upon Hercules' growth.

Due to some problems left over from history, Hercules would have become the king of a country, but because of Hera's interference, Hercules' brother Eurystheus became the king first, and Hercules became king. as subjects of the other side.

And this brother Eurystheus, as the king of Hercules, didn't take care of his brother at all. Instead, he assigned him one task after another that seemed completely impossible.

Heracles was dissatisfied. He was unwilling to give Eurystheus a job as a mortal, but Zeus had promised that Eurystheus, as his elder brother, could become the king, and it was impossible to change his order overnight.Hercules could only swallow his anger.

Hera, the queen of heaven, seized this opportunity. She took the opportunity to turn the depression in Hercules' heart into a wild rage.Hercules couldn't control his bloodlust, and he even wanted to kill his cherished nephew Iolaus.When the nephew learned that his uncle was going to kill him, he fled overnight. In a rage, Hercules shot and killed the children born to him and his wife Megara with arrows, imagining that he was shooting giants with arrows.

When Hercules finally recovered from the madness of killing his relatives, he realized that he had made a catastrophe and fell into deeper sorrow and misfortune.

He shut himself up and saw no one.As time passed, the pain in his heart lessened.He regained his strength and was determined to complete the task entrusted to him by Eurystheus.
