Chapter 153 God is sitting at home, and the pot comes from heaven
The next day, Olympus.
Early in the morning, Artemis, dressed in hunting attire, excitedly came to Hestia's temple and called the door.
When Lorne heard the sound and walked out of the house, in addition to the smiling hunting goddess, there was also the annoying brother-in-law who was trying hard to maintain a stiff smile.
Noting that the God of Light's expression didn't seem very bright, Lorne decisively moved closer to Artemis to prevent Apollo from finding an opportunity to attack him.
Unfortunately, Athena was busy finalizing the casting details of the 88 sacred garments and experimenting with the actual combat effects of several finished products, so she was temporarily unable to leave.
Otherwise, you can pull her over and go to Arcadia together, to resist the pressure on yourself, and always keep an eye on the restless God of Light.
But that's okay, I can't always be under the protection of the goddess of wisdom. Only by practicing early can I better integrate into the Olympus family.
Moreover, that woman Athena is too smart. If you want to do some small tricks under her nose, you have to be careful, which is too troublesome.
Compared with the goddess of wisdom who has many honeycomb holes in her mind, most of the Greek gods and ordinary people in the city-state that she met were so simple (easy to deceive) and endearing.
Gradually, city-states were established here and transformed into a holy place suitable for herdsmen, hunters and mountain people to live.
As the chariot stopped in the forest, Artemis stretched out her hand to lead Lorne out of the car. She did not rush to start her favorite hunting activity. Instead, as a host, she accompanied her lover who came from afar. Walking briskly in the valley and along the river, while introducing him to Arcadia's environment and past, he recalled the memories he had left on this land.
It was originally a barbaric land. Legend has it that in the world at that time, people oppressed and exploited each other, and there were natural disasters from the gods and the ravages of monsters. So many people fled to this land with their families and began to thrive.
Hence, a group of delicate goddesses did not suffer much from the toil of traveling long distances, and it only took them a few hours to reach their destination.
For a time, all nine accompanying muses were left behind, and they could only follow the nineteen hunting nymphs miserably, using their divine power to drive on their way.
I don't know if the latter two have ruined the local customs, or because this is a gathering place for mountain people, thieves, hunters and refugees. The local folk customs are quite tough.
If they are disappointed in the hunt. Arcadian hunters even dared to whip the idols.
Fortunately, Mount Olympus, where the gods live, and Arcadia, the sanctuary of Artemis, are both located on the Peloponnese Peninsula, so they are not far apart.
As for the arrival of her lover, the goddess of hunting was naturally eager to ask for it, so she directly gave the task of driving to the slave god, and the two of them rode in the same car.
And Artemis, the goddess of hunting, who can protect their livestock and make them return home with a full harvest, has become the main patron saint of this area.
But by the way, Arcadia will have another translation in the future, which is [Utopia]...
After a brief moment of tenderness, Artemis saw that the accompanying nymphs and muses had arrived one after another, so she had no choice but to correct her mentality and start a formal hunt.
Hence, "Arcadia", which is full of vitality and where everything is in full swing, has become a synonym for uncivilized people and was looked down upon by other Greeks.
In addition, this is the birthplace of the **** Hermes, and the worship of Pan, the son of Hermes, also spread in Arcadia.
After making up his mind, Lorne packed up his things, readily accepted the invitation and went out, and majestically entered the team of his host Artemis.
It has to be said that Arcadia, as the sanctuary of the hunting goddess, is quite rich in wild animal and plant resources, and even magical beasts with the blood of gods are everywhere.
Lorne, who was conducting field archeology across time and space based on future memories, looked at the monsters that bared their teeth at him from time to time in the vast mountains and forests and valleys in front of him, and couldn't help but reveal a playful smile on his face.
The original word "Arcadia" is arkadia, and the original meaning of ark is to avoid or avoid.
Apollo looked at the person of the opposite **** who took the initiative to seduce his sister, and couldn't help but burst into anger. He immediately drove the golden chariot and caught up with them urgently to prevent them from doing anything extraordinary in the middle.
Nineteen hunting nymphs who fell out of favor were forced to follow the chariot on foot with their long legs.
The few thieves that Lorne met on the Invisible Island before were heroes from this paradise.
But these may still be a threat to ordinary people. In front of the two main gods and a lot of subordinate gods, they can only run away.
For a time, the entire Arcadia Mountains were in a state of panic. A large number of wild beasts and monsters fled with their families, and the frightened birds in the forest did not settle down for a long time.
At dusk, the group of monsters who invaded the mountains finally stopped and began to set up camp and make fires for cooking.
The forest, which had been noisy all day, finally became somewhat peaceful.
As the night grew darker, the rich aroma of meat filled the air in front of the warm fire. Lorne handed the roasted animal meat and mushroom soup to the accompanying nymphs and muses in turn.
The superb cooking skills made the goddess's lips and teeth taste fragrant, and she was full of praise. Unknowingly, she put down her reserve, opened her belly, and ate happily.
Because he underestimated the appetite of these goddesses, although the animal meat they caught during the day was enough, the spices and condiments prepared by Lorne were all consumed. Under the helpless gazes of the nymphs and muses, Lorne had no choice but to get up, take his golden retriever with him, and prepare to find some wild seasoning substitutes.
After walking along the river for a short distance, Lorne made some gains and was about to return to feed the group of goddesses who were waiting for food.
“Woof~!”
Unexpectedly, the golden retriever in front of him stuck his head into the bushes to look for fungi. He suddenly let out a low cry of grief and anger, hurriedly retracted his head, and rushed to his master's side, jumping and jumping all the way.
Have something?
There was a trace of surprise between Lorne's brows. He stood up and walked to the bush. He reached out and opened the branches spreading around. He suddenly saw a swaddling baby lying quietly on the dead leaves. A pair of bright brown eyes looked at him curiously. He didn't have the slightest fear.
And the little snow-white hand that poked out from the swaddling clothes held a handful of light yellow dog hair.
Looking down at the dog whining aggrievedly at his feet and the obvious chip on its neck, Lorne, as an unscrupulous master, suddenly couldn't help laughing.
Unexpectedly, the dignified golden retriever who had taken Poseidon sea dog pills was actually bullied by a little girl who had not yet been born.
“Little girl, I didn't realize it, but you are quite fierce.”
Lorne leaned over and gently picked up the swaddle on the ground, while stretching out his fingers to tease the baby girl's tender face, chuckling and teasing.
I don't know whether she was annoyed by the teasing or she was really hungry. The fierce-natured baby girl bit the finger that was causing trouble on her face and bit it hard.
However, since the baby teeth have not yet grown, Lorne's finger wrapped in the baby's mouth not only did not feel pain, but instead felt a tingling sucking sensation.
The non-deterrent counterattack made Lorne want to laugh even more. He then raised his head and looked around. After confirming that no one was there, he looked at the baby in his arms, and a trace of pity flashed across his eyes.
Apparently, these are mostly abandoned babies thrown into the forest because their parents did not want to raise them.
Judging from the fabric and pattern of the swaddling clothes, it seems that this child did not come from a poor family. He was not abandoned because he could not afford to raise him, right?
Just when Lorne was confused, there were a few subtle surging sounds in the distance, which made him suddenly narrow his eyes. He immediately stepped on the ground, the invisible light wheel behind him turned, and the golden shadow of [Bull] instantly enveloped his whole body. .
“Dang Dang Dang Dang!”
Accompanied by a crisp sound of gold and iron, several bronze arrows shot out of the darkness were deflected and bounced away.
“Who? Come out!”
Realizing that something bad was happening, Lorne held the baby in his arms, shouted coldly, and stepped **** the ground.
Suddenly, the shadow of the [Bull] raised its head and roared, and trampled its four hooves to the ground. The powerful divine power enveloped the trembling of the earth and spread forward.
Trees along the way fell to the ground, and the sound of hooves came from the darkness.
With the silver light cast by the full moon and through the diffuse smoke and dust, Lorne suddenly saw hundreds of monsters whose lower bodies were horses with four hooves and whose upper bodies were humans, wearing bronze armor and holding bows, arrows, guns and axes, gathering together. All around were watching him with eager eyes.
Centaulos?
Lorne's face sank as the names of these things were reflected in his mind.
Centaurs, also known as centaurs, are hybrid gods who existed during the time of the Titan **** King Cronus. They live in the mountains and forests called Thessaly and Arcadia between the Pindas Mountains and the Aegean Sea in central and eastern Greece. They are keen on violence, lust, fighting and plundering. They often break into human settlements and **** beautiful members of the opposite **** into their nests for mating.
Hence, they were a notorious group among the Greek gods.
What makes Lorne unhappy is that the centaurs are described by poets as followers of Dionysus, the **** of wine, because of their debauchery and lust...
There are also the Goatman and Pan, who are famous for their sexual desires. According to legend, they are also his vassals...
It is true that God is sitting in the house, and the pot comes from heaven.
Do I have anything to do with these ghosts? Don't blame me for your **** and alcoholism, okay?
Just as Lorne was cursing, a dry and awkward Common Tongue came from the darkness.
"Male...don't...kill him! There are many...women...in the village...in front...take them back!"
A tall, leader-like centaur wearing a gold-faced helmet gave orders in a loud voice.
As local aborigines, they have detected the noise caused by outsiders early on.
With so many beautiful women of the opposite **** coming to our door, and even setting up camp on the spot in a big way, it would be a disgrace to Arcadia's simple folk customs if we don't take advantage of the night to entertain these lovely strangers.
