Greece Brings Evildoers Chapter 275

Chapter 275 Brother, I recognize your godson!

 A few days later, outside the Oceanus Sea, Mount Etna.

 Because of the fertile volcanic ash nourishment, the foot and mountainside of the mountain are covered with dense vegetation such as chestnut trees, oak trees, pine trees, and birch trees, forming a vibrant shade of green. However, as the altitude increases and the temperature decreases, the dense forests gradually turn into sparse shrubs, and pieces of strange-shaped volcanic rocks are exposed on the surface, forming a unique landform.

Within the open crater on the top of the mountain, sometimes thick smoke billows, sometimes flames shoot into the sky, mixed with the fierce roar of heavy hammers.

This is the newly built forge workshop of Hephaestus, the **** of fire and craftsmanship. It can use the endless leyline flames of Mount Etna to create weapons and supplies for the gods.

However, due to the remote location and Hephaestus' weird temper, not many people know about this secret place. Coupled with the harsh high temperature environment, there are even fewer people who have actually been there.

At this moment, a slender figure walked into the fiery red cave, led by two metallic female attendants.

Hearing the footsteps behind him, Hephaestus, who was working hard in front of the forging platform, threw down the forging hammer in his hand and looked back at the expected but unexpected visitor.

"You came?"

"Um."

Lorne nodded, gave the craftsman a warm smile, looked around, and asked in a deep voice.

 “Where is Thetis?”

“Don't worry, as you said, I sent her to Athens and she is safe now.”

Hephaestus answered casually, then limped forward with a limp, carefully examined Lorne in front of him, then suddenly raised his thick and hairy arm, and patted the opponent's shoulder tightly, A hearty laugh spread across his cheeks.

 “Yes, it's a man!”

Hearing the compliment, Lorne suppressed the tingling in half of his body, squeezed out a slightly distorted smile from his face, and continued to ask.

“Everything is ready? When shall we set off?”

“Don't worry, I heard that the wine you make is good, please sit down and have a few drinks with me first.”

Hephaestus waved his hand, then swept the debris piled on the table to the ground, and pulled Lorne to sit down.

It was hard to resist the hospitality, and Luo En had something to ask for, so he had to sit down patiently, and took out the treasured immortal food and secret wine to drink with the legendary craftsman god.

After three rounds of drinking, Hephaestus, who was slightly tipsy, stared at Lorne and looked at him, becoming more and more satisfied with him.

To be honest, because of the frustration of his marriage, he doesn't like tall and handsome pretty boys very much.

But the kid in front of me not only stepped forward at the critical moment and rescued his adoptive mother Thetis, but also neatly killed Peleus, the blind little beast, so that there would be no further trouble.

Moreover, what made Hephaestus even more unexpected was that the kid who had revealed such a big trap actually didn't leave. He just took some time to prepare, and then came to Mount Etna as scheduled to prepare. Take him with him to Olympus to plead guilty, willing to replace Thetis and bear the wrath of His Majesty the God-King.

 This responsibility and courage are much stronger than those eggless sea gods.

 No, there is no comparison at all!

"boom!"

 After drinking, Hephaestus slapped Lorne on the shoulder again and announced with a smile.

 “Boy, I agree to your marriage!”

"Um…"

Lorne nodded muffledly, looking at the cracked stone pier under him, somewhat dumbfounded.

As expected of a blacksmith, he is very strong and straightforward, and he never hides his emotions of liking and disliking. But if I keep shooting like this, I wonder if I won't reach Olympus and the other side will shoot him to pieces.

 And fortunately, you only know that I flirted with your adoptive mother. If you knew that I was sleeping with your own mother, why don't you tear me up on the spot?

Lorne cursed secretly while asking about the aftermath of Peleus's proposal.

 The straightforward Hephaestus naturally did not hide anything and told the story of what happened after Lorne left.

Of course, Eunuch Bo couldn't stop the three hundred-armed giants from joining forces, and was beaten up. The scene was miserable.

Not only was the King of the Sea himself bruised and disgraced, but the Atlantis tribe that had just gathered together also suffered a lot of losses. Even the Poseidon Temple, which had just been built not long ago, was turned into a pile of ruins.

After some superficial beatings, the ocean gods once again saw the terror of the three hundred-armed giants. After reliving the nightmares of the past, they also turned into ostriches, blocked the door of their homes, and alienated their relationship with Poseidon. , just have the words "It's none of your business, just hang it up high" written on his face.

After suffering so much, the prestige and power he had just gathered disappeared. Of course, Poseidon himself refused to give up. He directly let his wife and son carry him, and went to Olympus to accuse the three hundred-armed giants before Zeus. Atrocities.

—He was not familiar with the criminal who killed Peleus at all, and he had a grudge, and he had no intention of preventing Thetis from getting married. That matter had nothing to do with him at all. As a result, when a man was sitting at home, misfortune came from the sky. While he was having a good meal, three hundred-armed giants came to his door, pulled him out and beat him severely. Is there any heavenly principle? Is there any justice?

So, His Majesty the God King who was "fair and just" came forward to uphold justice. While comforting the wronged brothers, he sternly warned the three hundred-armed giants, ordering them to go back to the primitive ocean, shut themselves up and think about their mistakes, and not go out beyond the border without orders. Moreover, in order to ease the relationship between the two parties, Zeus personally acted as a matchmaker and asked Briareos, the leader of the three hundred-armed giants, to marry a daughter of Poseidon and become the son-in-law of the sea god.

 Obviously, this so-called punishment is just picking it up high and putting it down gently. Even the result of the marriage is somewhat insulting.

 But the situation is stronger than the person. Even if Poseidon is dissatisfied, he can only hold his nose and admit it.

As for the culprit who caused this "misunderstanding", Zeus said that he will definitely be punished severely!

After hearing this, Lorne couldn't help but roll his eyes.

That Lao Deng obviously wanted to take the opportunity to beat Poseidon, and he also pushed the blame on him. As expected, he still had the character of being both responsible and upright.

Let your grandson, who has a grudge against the old sea **** Nereus's family, go to Nereus's daughter Thetis to propose marriage. He also sent three hundred-armed giants to **** him on the way. Such an obvious trick, do you really think others can't see it?

Of course, it is more likely that even if Zeus knew about it, he would not care about the opinions of Poseidon and the sea gods. All he wanted was to take the opportunity to break up the energy and power that Poseidon had just gathered.

 Lao Bo, you are in such a state of despair that you are not regarded as a rival at all.

Lorne shook his head secretly, and while sighing for Mr. Bo who was getting worse and worse, his eyes twinkled faintly, and there was a trace of teasing on his face.

However, Zeus was also careless. He obviously underestimated the extent of this rebellion. He only thought that Poseidon, who had a criminal record, was the mastermind and was making some uneasy little moves.

As everyone knows, this time it's not just Poseidon, but Apollo, Hera, and Athena are also involved, ready to go.

One-third of the powerful gods in Olympus rebelled, which was enough for His Majesty the God King to drink a pot.

But next, he will add more fire to make this turmoil more violent.

“Well, after drinking your wine, according to the rules, I should also give you something to follow me.”

While Lorne was thinking, the drunken Hephaestus stood up from the table, pulled him staggeringly to the forging crater, pointed at the red-black magma flowing below, and spoke in a deep voice.

 “Jump down!”

 The sudden and outrageous request made Lorne obviously taken aback.

However, before he could react, the impatient Hephaestus grabbed him and threw him into the rolling lava.

I go!

Lorne was caught off guard and could only subconsciously summon the divine incarnations of [Flame] and [White Horse] to resist the high temperature emitted by the magma in the core of the earth.

 “Bear it!”

At this time, a solemn low roar came from the crater. Hephaestus pulled off the coarse cloth shirt on his chest and pulled up the Aeolus skin bag used for blowing wind next to the forge.

In an instant, the wind assisted the fire, and the fire took advantage of the wind. The originally calm magma river boiled and rolled, and the temperature continued to rise.

Even with the double protection of [Flame] and [White Horse], the surrounding flames seemed to be all-pervasive, continuously penetrating into Lorne's limbs and bones, igniting the divine blood in his body.

For a moment, golden-red divine flames continued to spurt out from his pores and acupuncture points. Lorne seemed to have turned into a person who was burning fiercely. His blood veins were beating, his body was burning, and a wave of stinging pain rolled over him.

What is Hephaestus doing? Do you want to practice me?

Just as Lorne's consciousness was being burned into a trance, a crisp bird song came from beneath the boiling magma.

Immediately afterwards, a giant flaming bird with feathers that were partly golden and partly bright red, shaped like a giant eagle and had a clear and sweet voice flew out from under the magma. After circling a few times in the crater, it crashed head-on. Into Lorne's chest.

At the moment of contact, surging heat flowed into Lorne's body, bringing an indescribable rhythm of life.

 Almost at the same time, Lorne recognized the identity of this magical bird.

 The Phoenix is ​​a monster with the characteristics of "immortality" and "rebirth". Legend has it that when it has a premonition that its life is coming to an end, it will pick incense wood and burn itself. Three days later, it will rise again from the ashes and be resurrected like Christ.

Records of this strange creature originate from the Assyrians, but there are similar myths around the world, including the European Phoenix, the Russian Firebird, the Egyptian Sunbird, the American Yael, and the Arabian Ankh, all of which They all have the characteristics of resurrection from the dead (life spans are 500 years, 540 years, 1000 years, 1461 years, 1700 and 12994 years respectively), and have a close relationship with the sun and flames.

There are also similar records in Greece. The first person to mention the phoenix was Hesiod, the Greek poet in the eighth century BC and the author of Theogony. The first person to describe the phoenix in detail was the Greek historian Herodotus.

 Obviously, this mysterious creature did exist in the Greek Gods, and lived in Mount Etna, and was related to the craftsman **** Hephaestus.

 Immortal? Rebirth?

With a thought in his mind, Lorne vaguely understood Hephaestus' intention. He immediately put aside his distracting thoughts, closed his eyes and gathered his divine power to guide the power from the Phoenix into the golden roulette behind him.

Seeing the scene before him, the craftsman **** at the crater also nodded with satisfaction. While drinking the immortal food and secret wine in his hand, he pulled the wind bag harder.

The roar of boiling magma mixed with the crisp chirping of birds continues to echo in the fiery red cave.
