An infinite journey that begins at Hogwarts

After Cedric left the banquet, he came to the mortal Greek city-state and walked into the temple of Athena.

After a while, Athena returned to the temple wearing a golden armor.

"Aphrodite, that big-breasted, brainless idiot."

The golden apple left by the goddess of strife represents the 'most beautiful person' among the gods, and naturally includes the powerful priesthood of [beauty].

Aphrodite, as one of the twelve Olympian gods with powerful divine power, certainly knew that this golden apple concealed Zeus's plan. After all, the innate spirit of the golden apple tree originally belonged to Zeus. As a weak goddess, Aphrodite Waiting for divine power, it is not easy to get this precious fruit.

But for the sake of the priesthood [Beauty], Aphrodite still chose to side with Zeus, helping him set up a killing trap and destroying Achilles' strength.

"Where's Hera?" Cedric asked.

In fact, in this Trojan War, Zeus balanced the interests of many parties very well. For example, although Athena and Hera lost the important chess piece Achilles, at the same time, the Greek coalition destroyed the city of Troy and achieved the final victory. , they received unparalleled luck.

Therefore, after Hera, the goddess who shares power equally with Zeus, learns that she and others want to truly overthrow Zeus, whether she will stand by Achilles as decisively as before is what we need to consider now. first question.

Athena shook her head slightly, "We cannot place our hopes on Hera. Although the destruction of the previous god kings all originated from the queen of gods, facts have proven that after losing the king of gods, the queen of gods is nothing. She is now You can already guess some of our purpose, but we are still waiting and watching. After all, you are involved in the killing of the gods, and no one dares to move, even if she is a high-ranking queen."

Speaking of this, Athena chuckled and said that the ally she had found was really interesting now. Even if she just entered the game, her existence was enough to frighten most powerful gods.

"Where's that Prometheus? Will he help us?"

Prometheus in Greek mythology has several important identities: the Titan, the creator of mankind, and the enemy of Zeus.

First of all, the first level of identity means that Prometheus will not be accepted by the current Olympus pantheon under the leadership of Zeus. After all, Zeus gained power by overthrowing the rule of the Titan pantheon. They were naturally opposition.

The second identity represents that Prometheus has incomparable power and is also an ally of Athena. After all, when Prometheus created humans, he only gave them the various instincts and bodies of beasts. It was Athena who The collected breath and wisdom of the gods helped Prometheus complete his final mission.

According to the Eastern dialect, Prometheus owes Athena the cause and effect of enlightenment.

The origin of the third identity also originated from human beings. In the Greek mythology system, there are two reasons why there is no close human-god belief system like the DND universe.

The bloodline source of all gods in Greek mythology comes from Chaos, the god of chaos. In other words, the true god can support his throne from two aspects. The first is to have the blood of the chaos god that is richer and more atavistic. The second is to have a priesthood and gain the faith of mortals.

Putting aside the first aspect, it is almost the instinct of a true god to obtain a more powerful priesthood and more faith.

But Prometheus set a trap for Zeus in this regard.

When deciding how much humans should offer to the true god, Prometheus asked humans to divide a cow into two parts, one part was the skeleton, and the other part was meat. Both parts were wrapped in cowhide and presented to Zeus for his choice.

The part of the skeleton wrapped in cowhide is naturally much larger than the other part, so Zeus chose the former, which also means that humans can leave more for themselves when making sacrifices.

Therefore, in Greek mythology, although everyone believes in the true God, they retain more autonomy. This is the right that Prometheus helped humans obtain when they decided to devote themselves to faith.

So Zeus became a mortal enemy of the Titan.

"He disappeared."

Athena's voice was heavy, and the disappearance of a powerful ally naturally meant that her strength was greatly weakened.

"When?"

Cedric asked with a frown. If it had been not long ago, then the matter would have been serious, because it meant that Zeus could easily kill a 'creator of mankind'.

Athena noticed Cedric's concern and explained, "While this is almost certainly Zeus' plan, it did not happen not long ago."

"Do you remember the twelve trials of Hercules? In the trial to obtain the golden apple, I designed Hercules, the destined son of the human god, to rescue Prolo, who was bound by the gods on the Caucasus Mountains. Metheus, but after Prometheus was rescued, his whereabouts were unknown. I should have fallen into Zeus’s scheme at that time.”

When Cedric heard Athena's words, the infinite light of thought in the back of his mind began to deduce the past and the future.

Prometheus helped humans gain more freedom of belief and sacrifice, which not only offended Zeus, but also offended most of the gods in this universe.

Therefore, Zeus played a trick and decided not to give fire to humans together with the gods. As a last resort, Prometheus could only steal the fire by force, which naturally angered all the true gods. Zeus had no time to use the authority of the gods to send his greatest The enemy is tied to the Caucasus Mountains and tortured day by day, never ending.

At the same time, he also negotiated with the gods to lower Pandora's Box as a punishment for mankind, which not only destroyed the first generation of the golden race jointly created by Prometheus and Athena, but also divided Prometheus' power among mankind with the gods. faith in.

Judging from the above layout, Cedric had to sigh that it was really not a coincidence that Zeus was able to sit on the position of God King. Although he was a big pig's hoof, this kind of calculation would not work even if it was placed in the East. Among the immortals, he can also be ranked in the top fifteen.

What worried Cedric even more was what Athena just said.

There are two sons of fortune in Greek mythology.

One is Hercules and the other is Achilles.

Zeus wanted to use Hercules to win the war with Gaia, the ancient Earth Mother Goddess, so he needed to help Hercules complete the legendary twelve trials. The principle is equivalent to the Eastern Earth and the Western Heaven. He has accumulated incredible luck that even immortals can hardly resist.

In this process, Athena took advantage of Heracles, the son of luck, to rescue Prometheus, who was cursed by the gods. She was already considered a top-level player.

But now it seems that Zeus can really say in front of Athena, your father is still your father.

The rescued Prometheus eventually fell into Zeus's layout and disappeared.
