Chapter 363 Prohibition of Seese
The person who came was none other than Hera, the Queen of Heaven, the patron saint of Argos.
Hearing that he was fired on the spot, Eurystheus couldn't help but be shocked.
“Lord Hera, what do you mean?”
"Don't you understand?" Hera looked at Eurystheus quietly in front of her, her eyes getting colder. "In order to vent your personal anger, you dragged the country into an unprovoked fight and threw my instructions behind you. Unworthy to lead Argos!”
If it was just an ordinary blood relative dispute, it would not be subject to such a heavy penalty.
After all, the relationship between relatives in Greece has never been very friendly, and each has its own discord. Although Eurystheus was a little cautious, he did his best in her sacrifice.
But this time, he clearly issued an oracle to send troops to support Thessaly. As the leader of a country, Eurystheus dared to embarrass the guests of Thessaly in public and turn against Thessaly. This is serious. Act ultra vires.
“Lord Hera, I do this all for you!”
Eurystheus saw that he seemed to be really about to lose his throne on the spot, and he hurriedly apologized for himself.
“I do not regard Hercules as an enemy out of personal desire, I just want to eradicate this illegitimate son who brings shame to you and defend your sacred marriage!”
For me?
Seeing that the King of Argos, whom she had personally chosen, was blaming her in public, Hera, who still wanted to leave some room, was almost trembling with anger.
Moreover, the so-called "holy marriage" sounds particularly ironic to my ears.
Just when Hera was about to have an attack, a gentle and soothing question came from the corner.
“So, what do you gain by suppressing Hercules?”
"Let my throne not be threatened, and maybe I can get the favor of Lord Hera! Who in the whole of Greece doesn't know that she is notoriously mean to her illegitimate children and mistresses, and wishes they all died! As long as I Get this right..."
Eurystheus's face was flushed, and he was talking excitedly, until a sudden jolt made him wake up instantly, and his expression changed drastically.
Why did you accidentally say everything that was on your mind?
At this time, there was silence on the field, and the heroes all looked at the King of Argos with disdain.
Even the divine blood guards of Argos lowered their heads in shame and secretly distanced themselves from Eurystheus.
Thinking of the strange feeling of drunkenness lingering in his mind just now, Eurystheus looked at the **** of wine who was smiling at him and raising his glass at the banquet, and felt like crying without tears in his heart.
Drinking is a waste of time. He never wants to drink again.
Of course, that's assuming there's more to come…
Looking at the gloomy Queen Hera in front of him, Eurystheus broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and stammered in an argument.
“I'm not, I didn't…”
“Poof!”
Before he finished speaking, a flawless white arm was slapped hard, and the surging divine power squeezed Eurystheus into a puddle of flesh from the air.
Watching the King of Argos walking his own way to death step by step, Lorne sneered, shook his head, and drank the wine in the glass.
Eurystheus did not die unjustly. He was indeed the type of person who used the name of the gods to do his own sinful things.
Originally, according to the prophecy of fate, he was the one who issued the task for Hercules to complete the Twelve Trials, so he could not help but target Hercules.
If everything ends here, he can retire in his old age and continue to be his king of Argos.
However, after the death of Heracles, Eurystheus no longer had to fear his ascended cousin Hercules, so he tried every means to retaliate against the hero's descendants and planned to eradicate them.
Most of those descendants lived with Alcmene, the mother of Hercules. In order to escape the persecution of the king, they fled to Trachis in Athens, hoping to be allowed to take refuge. After Eurystheus learned the news, he still refused to give up and asked the king of Athens to hand them over, otherwise he would use force against the country.
The descendants of Heracles felt very uneasy and were forced to rally the refugees and the Athenians to resist together. For the final victory, the daughter of Hercules even took the initiative to sacrifice her life to the gods.
As a result, Eurystheus was defeated and captured, and Hercules' elderly mother Alcmene personally avenged her son and granddaughter.
There is no way for good or bad fortunes, they can only be brought about by oneself; the rewards of good and evil follow each other like a shadow, and this is generally the case.
After executing Eurystheus with her own hands, Hera's gloomy expression softened a lot, and she turned around and walked towards Heracles in the hall.
Telamon on the side thought of the queen's strong record against illegitimate sons and lovers in the past. He planned to stand up and step forward to smooth things over for his friend Heracles, but unexpectedly, he was pushed down on his seat by Lorne beside him.
rest assured…
As the Bacchus' lips and teeth opened and closed silently, Hera, who had already arrived in front of the table, grabbed Hercules' arm and gathered it high in front of everyone.
“From now on, Hercules will be the new king of Argos!”
Hearing this unexpected announcement, the heroes looked stunned, and even Hercules himself was a little at a loss.
"I?"
"Yes, according to the oracle: Perseus' first grandson rules the Argos region and will rule Argos and dominate all other descendants of Perseus. Since Eurystheus is dead, then , the throne should naturally be inherited by you.”
Hera answered naturally. A golden olive branch crown representing royal power appeared in her palm, and then she personally put it on Heracles' head.
Seeing the scene in front of them, the heroes were filled with disbelief, and they started talking like a pot.
Is this still the mistress killer and illegitimate child nemesis?
Doesn't she hate having children out of wedlock the most?
Hasn't Heracles been persecuted by her?
“Do you believe the dead man's lies?”
The Bacchus in the corner shook his glass and asked with a sneer.
Faced with the fact that Hera personally crowned Hercules, the son of her love rival, the heroes realized how deeply they had misunderstood the Queen of Heaven in the past.
There is no mistress killer, there is no illegitimate child nemesis, they are all rumors from outside!
Everyone suddenly realized this, and one after another showed disdain in their eyes, and spat at the puddle of meat outside the door.
For your own selfishness and the throne, you slandered the kind Queen of Heaven. You deserve to die!
“Okay everyone, today is a great day for Heracles to be crowned king. Why don't we raise a toast together to celebrate and share this glorious time!”
The **** of feasting raised his glass and shouted. The power of rhythm made the dishes on the plate more delicious and the wine in the glass more fragrant.
Everyone was infected by the joyful atmosphere and raised their glasses in response.
"cheers!"
For a time, there was a lot of people drinking and drinking, and the whole hall was immersed in a sea of joy.
The happiest among them were undoubtedly the divine blood guards and heroes of Argos, who gathered around Hercules and toasted to the new king.
In the world of the gods, only lions are worthy of leading the flock, only warriors can be praised, and only heroes are qualified to be supported.
Although Eurystheus has been ruling Argos for a long time, it was Hercules who kept killing evil beasts and rectifying disasters. I don't know how many Argosians have benefited from him.
Now, they have lost a cowardly and selfish king, but have gained a hero who can lead them and protect them. Nothing makes the Argives happier than this.
Apparently, the former King of Argos was right to worry. He was not comparable to his cousin in terms of prestige and ability.
Lorne looked at Hercules who was being poured wine by a bunch of people on the field. He chuckled and shook his head. Then he picked up a glass of lighter wine on the table and handed it to the side.
Hera, who came over at some point, took the wine glass and rolled her eyes at her little lover coquettishly. "Now, are you satisfied?"
“Satisfied, of course satisfied! Your fairness and kindness are now known to the world.”
Lorne clinked his glasses gently and teased Hera with a smile.
With Hercules as a role model, Hera's bad influence as the killer of mistresses and the nemesis of illegitimate children will naturally gradually disappear and she will become a queen respected by more people.
However, Hera didn't care about this at all, and quietly approached Lorne's ear with slightly narrowed eyes.
“So, how are you going to compensate me?”
Hearing that very obvious hint, Lorne stiffened slightly and looked resentfully at the radiant Hercules on the field.
How come you always enjoy the blessings and I suffer?
Do you know how many times my brother has sacrificed his life for you, overtly and covertly?
Just as Lorne was secretly cursing, the hot breath poured into his ear canal, causing bursts of itching that went straight into his skull.
“Have you thought about it? Do you want me to help you decide?”
Hera in the corner twisted her waist like a snake, asking playfully, and the big thunder on her chest swept Lorne's arm intentionally or unintentionally.
Since breaking free from the shackles of marriage, she seems to be more and more interested in playing games with her young lover that provoke feelings of betrayal.
For example, let him lose his temper in public...
The embarrassment under tension and the conquest made half-heartedly are like a jar of fine wine, bringing a different taste every time.
Just when the beautiful queen wanted to further tease her little lover, she saw Lorne's expression change and he coughed violently.
“Heb? Why are you here?”
Hera's body stiffened instantly, she suddenly distanced herself from her little lover, assumed a dignified manner, and turned her head to look behind her.
Seeing the divine blood heroes walking around as usual, Hera was slightly startled, and then she reacted. She looked at the empty side with a dark face, and her clenched silver teeth creaked.
Want to default on your debt? Not that easy!
Hera immediately rushed out the door and launched a ferocious search.
As the queen left, the wall on the other side of the corner squirmed like water waves, and a figure carefully stepped out of the [maze] and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he also likes Se Se, he can't do it all day long, right?
When it's time to do business, you should do more business.
Lorne was on the field getting familiar with the origins, bloodlines and abilities of the various divine blood heroes, while also inquiring about the current situation of the main gods of the major city-states.
According to the size of the djinn family, if you want to defend Thessaly, it is not enough for him and Hera.
If the construction of coastal walls in various places has been completed, it is better to urge the main gods and gods to come and join them as soon as possible.
By the way, based on the progress of the projects in various places and the words and deeds of the Lord God, analyze whether they have foreign workers and whether it is really credible.
While Lorne was secretly collecting intelligence, he inadvertently saw a handsome young man holding Medea's arm, refusing to let her leave. The yellow-haired Jason next to him was whispering support from one side.
Seeing this situation, his face turned dark.
Why are there so many people rushing to reincarnate today? Or is this the normal moral value of divine blood heroes?
“What are you doing!”
Lorne moved to Medea and looked at the two of them with a sullen face.
As the cold chill hit his face, Jason, who was extremely sensitive, suddenly shrank his neck and hurriedly winked at the handsome young man beside him.
The young man suddenly realized that he had abandoned Medea, grabbed Lorne's arm, and asked for help excitedly.
“Brother-in-law, please persuade my sister! She refuses to go back with me!”
Lorne couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked tentatively.
"Who are you…"
"Absyrtus, the prince of Colchis, is also the brother of Miss Medea. I have just brought them together."
Huang Maoyi Asong quickly stepped forward to introduce and clarify the misunderstanding for himself.
As a social butterfly at banquets, he was basically familiar with the origins, bloodlines and abilities of most of the heroes after wandering around the field. This prince of Colchis was the little brother Jason had just made friends with.
At that time, after a few glasses of wine, the little prince Absyrtus, who was not very experienced in the world, explained his life experience like a bean in a bamboo tube, and also told some things about his family.
—For example, he was born in the royal family of Colchis and had an older sister. When she was just born, her aunt Circe took her to the island of Aiyou to raise her and devoted herself to learning witchcraft.
Since he had not been home for many years, his father and mother missed their daughter very much and asked him to travel many times to find out about her sister.
However, due to the age and lack of information, his search has made little progress.
After hearing this, Jason, who was well-informed, instantly thought of a certain wizarding queen who had shown great success in the Battle of Thessaly, and immediately brought the young prince Absyrtus to recognize her.
But Medea was obviously doubtful about this kind of relatives who suddenly appeared. The little prince Absyrtus had no tokens or evidence that he could produce, so the two sides started to argue.
Lon listened to the narrative and pointed at himself.
“That brother-in-law?”
“Oh, Brother Jason said, you and my sister are flirting with each other, so they must have hooked up, and only you can persuade her!”
The upright little prince answered without hesitation and sold Jason aside.
Seeing the Dionysian looking at him with a smile on his face, the sensitive Jason jumped far away like a frightened rabbit.
“You guys chat, I'm leaving, I won't disturb you!”
Running pretty fast...
Seeing the yellow-haired bird disappear into the crowd in a few seconds, Lorne rolled his eyes, patted the little prince Absyrtus on the shoulder, and spoke to the two of them.
“There are many people here, let's go outside and talk.”
Medea nodded slightly, pinched the corner of her senior brother's clothes, and followed step by step, with a hint of excitement flashing in her lowered eyes.
He didn't deny it?
He admitted it!
Brother-in-law…hee hee…brother-in-law…
The bursts of joy that surged in her heart made Medea feel that the strange and reckless brother in front of her seemed a lot more pleasing to the eye and trustworthy.
