Greece Brings Evildoers Chapter 144

Chapter 144 Enemies who love and kill each other

The underworld in Greek mythology can be roughly divided into three parts: "Aspedros", where the souls of ordinary people live after death; "Elysee", the blessed place where heroes and innocent and innocent souls live; and "Thar", the place of punishment for guilty souls. Talos”. In addition to all the dead souls, some of the Titans who were overthrown by Zeus were also imprisoned in the underworld.

The poet Dante, in the "Divine Comedy", mentioned the three worlds after the death of the dead - [Purgatory], [Hell] and [Paradise].

Is there a strange sense of déjà vu between the two?

That's right, as the ultimate suture monster of the future, Christian mythology is likely to draw on the triple setting of the afterlife in Greek mythology.

Therefore, now that the Dionysian Cult has been established, it is time to seize the time to create the legendary [Doomsday Judgment] and [Purgatory], [Hell], and [Heaven] one after another, and perfect their own lineage independent of Olympus. Theological worldview further increases the influence on congregants and their cohesion to the denomination.

After this move, Lorne can already foresee that the power of faith he has gained will increase significantly.

Moreover, you can also bury a few secret chess pieces of your own in the underworld.

—He didn't believe in Zeus, but he also didn't believe in the goddess in front of him who seemed to have helped him a lot.

“What are you thinking about?” Hecate asked curiously, dragging her chin.

Only in this way can we explain why Hecate can turn the wheel of fate and make everything no longer certain!

Lorne smiled and gently let go, and the serpentine twelve-sided die rolled in front of the two of them.

Hecate picked up the wine glass and took a sip, reminding her faintly, with a hint of gloominess in her tone.

Because of this, the god-king of Olympus respected and feared Hecate.

So Lorne guessed that something must have happened.

—For example, Nyx, as the original body, split for some reason, forming the three goddesses of fate, which represent "inevitability" and "determination", and Hecate, who represents "accident" and "opportunity".

“If you take half a step forward, you are a genius; if you take one step forward, you are a madman. Being too smart is not necessarily a good thing.”

But the more this happened, the stronger the smile on Lorne's face became.

“I'm thinking that it's obviously you who made the destiny of this world with your own hands, why do you want me to break them?”

However, Hecate, who is both a three-phase goddess and is obviously closest to Nyx, has a completely different divinity, representing [Game], [Opportunity] and [Possibility]...

If Nyx is compared to the "Great Road", then the three goddesses of destiny are the "Heavenly Way" that regulates the operation of the world, and the one that escapes is Hecate, representing the possibility of "change" and "subversion".

However, facing the goddess's scrutiny and unparalleled oppression, Lorne remained unmoved and instead showed a playful smile.

"You're right? Let me continue to guess, are you the part that is [necessarily] abandoned?"

In the original scriptures of Orpheus (the original Dionysian religion), Nyx is regarded as the supreme **** of the three-phase goddess, and has three different super-god identities at the same time. She can be the goddess of destiny, Ananke, the goddess of retribution. Adrasthea and Hermamene, the goddess of cause and effect, represent all inevitable fate and are also the [mothers] of the three goddesses of fate.

All the differences may have started when Zeus devoured Metis and transcended his own destiny.

Because, like the three goddesses of fate, she is also a part of Nyx.

In a way that is easier for Easterners to understand, it is that the Great Dao is fifty, Tianyan is forty-nine, and there is one escape.

In an instant, Hecate's smile froze, and her dark eyes stared deeply at the figure in front of her, like an abyss and darkness that swallowed everything.

Lorne raised his head, looked at the illusive and foggy figure in front of him, and spoke meaningfully.

—God plays dice.

Although Einstein objected to this, more and more evidence later showed that the future of mankind is in a world where "accidentity" determines everything, whether it is big data, artificial intelligence, or artificial intelligence, which are currently popular. Biomedicine, gene editing, various disciplines and fields, including [God's dice] are inseparable and unavoidable in our lives.

In other words, [random] and [accidental] may be the inherent normality of the world and the background of what the world should be. "You want to use my hand to overturn the inevitable fate and regain your original authority?"

Lorne looked at the three-phase goddess in front of him and asked thoughtfully.

“And that so-called divergence point is Zeus?”

Hecate did not answer, but looked at the table quietly, somewhat lost in thought.

“Don't worry, I pose no threat to you, and I have no intention of becoming your enemy, so you don't need to be so guarded against me.”

Lorne told the truth calmly, and then spoke calmly.

“It's just that we both belong to the variables that are denied by [fate], so shouldn't there be some things that we should talk about openly and honestly?”

　Unknown to think of something, Hecate looked up again, with a playful smile on her face.

“What do you want to know?”

"why me?"

"Opportunities and possibilities are everywhere. It can exist in the past, present, or future; it can be Boros who was never born, it can be Zagreus who has been resurrected, or it can be life. And the resurrected Dionysus..."

Lorne was thoughtful, his eyes twinkling.

“It can also be me, a [variable] from outside fate?”

　　Immediately, he laughed to himself, and his eyes met those abyss eyes.

“So? You have already planned it?”

“Accidental is also inevitable.”

Hecate groaned meaningfully, also loosened her fingers, and threw her twelve-sided dice onto the table.

With a burst of rolling, the dice finally rolled out a number composed of several petals.

—This is the emblem of Aphrodite.

Lorne looked down, his eyes a little subtle.

—his own one, too.

Most dice come in pairs, and the goddess Ananke, who represents the fixed number, also has a corresponding spouse—Cronos, the **** of chance.

However, both Cronus and his consort Ananke are gods that are only found in the Orphic sect (Dionysianism) and not in other sects. Early Orphic sects believed that Phanes was the original **** and the creator of the universe.

The **** Cronus was added to the later "Twenty-Four Sacred Lines" and other editions. "The Sacred Phrases" believed that Colonus was the first origin and created everything.

Similarly, Ananke, who created the world together with Cronus, is only one side of the three-phase goddess Nyx.

"The bets have been placed and the game has officially begun. Show your worth. I will turn the wheel of fate for you and see if you can go through death and survive!"

The deep voice gradually became ethereal, and finally disappeared into nothingness.

The figure sitting in front of the banquet also disappeared into the invisible, leaving only the lingering sound of amusement.

Lorne looked at the dice spinning on the table again, his face uncertain.
