Chapter 524 The Burning Holy Fire

Zhang Xiao's expression paused for a moment, then he said with a smile:

"Professor, why do you ask that?"

He is really curious now. It is impossible to panic. As he once said, with the strength of Voldemort, there is no place in the world that he cannot go.

If you have to engage in some kind of domination, slavery, and your brain is broken, isn't it better to enjoy life and roam the world?

Wilvidakis lowered his voice and whispered:

"Don't worry, I have no prejudice against wizards. In fact, I have watched the gym incident many times. The wizard did not hurt anyone and was forced to defend himself.

The wizard was just doing his own thing and even paid the rent for the gym!

I don't believe that such a group that does things according to the rules is as evil as what is advertised on TV and will eat three children at a meal. "

Having said this, he paused and a smile appeared on his face:

"As for why I guessed you were a wizard, the reason is actually very simple.

First, the purpose of your question is too strong. Maybe many people will be interested in Greek culture and want to understand Greek mythology.

But they will never ask what kind of festivals can enter the Kingdom of God. They will ask which gods these celebrations and festivals are related to.

the second.

You are different from everyone else I have met. You are too confident, and it is not even the confidence that comes from being rich.

Just like nothing in the world can trouble you, based on your own self-confidence

If it were before, I might have thought you were someone else, but based on the recent situation and my research, I guess you are most likely a wizard.

Just like I now believe that it is very possible that the ancient Greek gods once existed, and they may even be wizards. "

Zhang Xiao nodded slowly. If it weren't for Professor Velvidakis, he wouldn't have noticed it himself, as his strength improved.

When he speaks, he rarely pays attention to making big circles and hiding his purpose. Even if he conceals it, it is based on detours that do not cause panic and make people feel reassured. If he is an ordinary person, he will not think about it in detail, but this The professor is not an ordinary person, he is quite keen.

In other words, I am becoming more and more direct, more and more ‘real’, that is, ‘real person’.

What is a real person? The ancients said: If you practice the natural way of doing nothing, in order to achieve the merits of the day after tomorrow, if your nature and life are complete, you will be a true person with no leakage.

It is also said: The ancient real person sleeps without dreams, feels without worries, eats unwillingly, and breathes deeply... The ancient real person does not know how to talk about life, does not know how to hate death, does not enjoy when he comes out, and does not distance when he enters; However, when things go, they just come.

To sum up, it is to be detached from things, see one's nature clearly, and not be hypocritical, then it will be true.

Although it is still far from reaching that state, it is indeed developing in the direction of ‘true’.

Zhang Xiao suddenly understood and nodded:

"Yes, you guessed it right. He is a wizard and a Taoist priest."

Zhang Xiao did not expect that his words would make Professor Velvidakis's eyes shine:

"Oh my god! Taoist priest! I know Taoist priests, and my guess is not wrong. If there are extraordinary powers in the entire world, they must have the same origin, but they have different names.

Sorry, I'm just too excited. Ever since I learned about the existence of wizards, I've been fascinated.

You know, there are many things in the history of the entire world that I can't explain, and I don't understand why this is the case, but if there are magical beings like wizards, they have been throughout the history of mankind.

That can explain a lot of things!

I have a request - sir, can you grant it to me? If I really help you find the kingdom of the legendary Olympus gods, can you take me in to see it?

I promise, I promise not to take anything away. I just want to see the myths I have studied for decades and really witness them! "

Zhang Xiao hesitated for a while and said slowly:

"But it is very likely that you will be in danger. You have to know that in general, there may be unknown dangers lurking in such ruins. I am not completely sure that I can guarantee your safety."

"I don't care! There is a saying in China -" He looked directly at Zhang Xiao and said firmly: "It's called 'If you hear the truth in the morning, you will die in the evening'!"

Even if I just go in and take a look, I would die! "

Nothing shows his determination better than these words. Zhang Xiao nodded:

"Okay, I promise you."

Velvidakis shook his fist fiercely, his excitement was beyond words, and then he remembered and asked:

"By the way, may I take the liberty to ask you about your purpose of entering the Kingdom of God?"

Zhang Xiao looked at his tangled look and couldn't help but laugh. Of course he understood this feeling. To judge others by oneself, if a foreign wizard said that he wanted to enter the heaven to take a look.

I'd probably mutter to myself, and maybe even feel uncomfortable, it's just human nature.

"Like you, I also want to enter the Kingdom of God to pursue the lost past and prove something."

"Then I'm relieved, I'll start working now!"

Wilvidakis cheered up and started to get busy. He put a lot of information on the table and kept talking to Zhang Xiao while checking it:

“In fact, the celebrations and festivals in ancient Greece are all related to the gods, but since we are entering the Kingdom of God, or the gods are coming, not many meet the conditions.

For example, the Dionysian Festival, which is a festival held for Dionysus, the god of wine, may have originally been a ritual held for the god of fertility.

Legend has it that the best wine will be tasted by the God of Wine. If it is favored by the God of Wine, the God of Wine will bless the winemaker. "

He quickly pulled out a piece of information and continued:

"There is also the Carnival. Although it was initiated by Dionysus, who is also in charge of the celebration, many gods will participate in the celebration."

Zhang Xiao nodded. If he wanted to check the information himself, it would probably take a long time, regardless of whether it was correct or not.

The most important thing is that it is useless to just know the festivals. These festivals must be restored to their original appearance, because only in this way can we find a way to the Kingdom of God.

Wilvidakis finally relaxed his brows and let out a sigh of relief:

"Although there is no experiment yet, my intuition tells me that the most likely possibility is this-"

He pulled out another piece of information and placed it in front of Zhang Xiao.

"Olympia Games"

The origin and prototype of the modern Olympic Games!

“The ancient Olympic Games began in 776 BC and ended in 394 AD, lasting for a total of 1168 years, during which 293 games were held.

The famous philosopher Plato once participated in the Olympia Games and won the championship in wrestling. His name means "broad-shouldered" or "big guy" in Greek, reflecting his physique and wrestling skills. "

Velvidakis said softly:

“The most important thing is that the legend says that the winner will be rewarded with a sacred olive branch crown and a palm branch, which were picked by the goddess Athena from the garden of the Kingdom of God.

They will also have the honor of meeting Zeus! "

Zhang Xiao closed his eyes and thought for a while:

"You can give it a try!"

Southeast of the Acropolis in Athens, Greece

The ruins of the Temple of Zeus, which was once the largest temple in ancient Greece, was built to worship Zeus.

But now there are only some ruins to tell the story of the past glory, and the huge pillars can vaguely show the grandeur of the past.

Velvidakis held the folder and said quickly:

"In the past Olympia Games, the most important thing was the sacred fire ceremony. The sacred fire needed to be lit at the altar in front of the Temple of Zeus, but the altar."

Zhang Xiao looked at the scattered ruins and solitary stone pillars. There used to be more than a hundred tall pillars, but now only a few are left.

"Professor, where is the altar? Do you have a picture?"

Wilvidakis quickly looked around and pointed to a place:

"It should be here, at the main entrance of the temple. I have the restoration picture here - this is an unpublished restoration picture. It was just made not long ago and a lot of information was verified."

See, this is the advantage of finding an expert. Otherwise, where can I find this information? There is no Internet.

Zhang Xiao took the information, looked at it carefully for a while, then suddenly raised his hand, and a huge boulder lying alone on the ground in the distance suddenly flew in front of him like a feather.

In the disbelief of Velvidakis, he lightly touched the rock with his wand.

Along with the transformed light, an altar exactly like the one in the data appeared.

"Oh my God! Is this the power of a wizard? This... this is simply a god-like power!"

Velvidakis held his head and his eyes widened. What he saw on the TV was a complete battlefield, with several parties fighting fiercely.

In the later period, the church promoted on TV that wizards were completely evil creatures and demons. They hid in dark sewers and made poisons by making weird laughs.

Putting a curse on people can confuse people's hearts and eat three children in one meal.

Where has the magical power of wizards been introduced?

He walked forward and touched the altar that was exactly the same as the one in the picture. The cold touch reminded him that it was not fake, but real.

"It's difficult for ordinary wizards to do it, but as you said, those gods are indeed more powerful wizards, so I came here to verify something."

Zhang Xiao waved his magic wand again, and a blue flame ignited in the center of the altar. This was another miracle of the wizards, the immortal fire of Gubulai that never goes out.

Only a truly powerful wizard can create this flame.

"Don't you need fuel?" Wilvidakis glared again.

"No need, the reason why it can keep burning is because I want it to burn, that's all. Okay, what should we do next?"

Zhang Xiao put away his wand. Magic had been placed nearby. To outsiders, this place looked normal.

"Oh, oh, next step." Wilvidakis came back to his senses. He was too familiar with the information and said without thinking:

"According to the procedures of the ancient Olympic Games, we need to light the torch with the holy fire, pass it to every city-state, and light the holy fire in all city-states."

He suddenly remembered something and shouted in shock: "I remembered that the legendary holy fire is also such a blue, eternal flame!

Exactly the same as yours! "

Zhang Xiao was stunned, but vaguely remembered that he had actually heard the introduction of the eternal flame when watching the live broadcast of the Olympic Games.

Maybe it was exactly what the professor said, a fairy fire made by the gods in the past.

"The problem now is how to deliver the holy fire to every castle and light it." Wilvidakis became anxious again.

He walked back and forth in front of the holy fire and said quickly:

"In the past, ancient Greece would send many people to carry the holy fire to every city-state to ensure that the holy fire was lit."

Zhang Xiao touched his chin and thought for a while, then snapped his fingers under the professor's confused gaze:

"rainwater!"

"Uh, what are you doing?"

"Calling some children to help, the distance is a bit far, it may take a while."

The two were silent for a moment. After a while, the elf appeared with smoke and explosions. He was so excited that he was trembling all over and shouted in a high-pitched voice:

"The greatest and most merciful master, the rain has heard your call!"

Zhang Xiao reached out to say hello to it, and said with a smile: "Yu Yu, I need your help with something again."

Yuyu hurriedly puffed up his chest: "It is our greatest honor to be able to help the master!"

He took the map of the ancient Greek city-states from Virvidakis and handed it to Rainwater:

"Can you understand the map?"

"Yes, this is included in the company's training! Rainwater can understand it easily!"

Under the call of the rain, elves appeared one after another. They shouted and greeted the great benefactor of the elves, and some even swayed excitedly.

Yu Yu had to spend a lot of effort to hand over the task.

In the eyes of Velvidakis, which had long become dull, these elves had firm eyes, held small torches, mounted the swallow-tailed dogs equipped by the company, and dispersed towards all the city-states like sparks.

"I know! I know what this is!" Wilvidakis suddenly shouted: "In ancient Greek mythology, there is a record of a race called the dwarfs!

They are described as having large eyes and heads, big ears, and very little hair on their bodies. In the Twelve Labors of Laclus, there was a story about putting dwarfs in jars to scare Eurysthus. "

Zhang Xiao looked at him in surprise, not knowing that such a past event existed.

Now it seems that the connection between the entire ancient Greek mythology and wizards is getting stronger and stronger.

Velvidakis said excitedly: "Where should we go next?"

Zhang Xiao pointed to the towering Olympus Mountains in the distance and said with a smile:

"Go there and wait for the door of the Kingdom of God to open for us!"
