Greece Brings Evildoers Chapter 68

Chapter 68 How many children are there in one meal?

The lingering sound is in the ears, deafening and deafening.

After listening to the whole story and combining it with the information he knew, Lorne finally pieced together the complete truth.

In fact, the images of bulls and bull-headed figures represent holiness and dignity in many civilized systems, and are also symbols of authority.

The Minoans were even more so.

Because the mother of the three Minoan brothers, the goddess Europa, was carried away by the bull transformed by Zeus, and then the union of the two parties and the rise of Minoan civilization came about.

Hence, in their sacred emblems, in addition to the goddesses in the form of birds and snakes, there are more symbols of bulls and bull-headed bodies.

According to what King Minos said, he, the king, sacrificed the bull in which the royal power and divinity of Crete were transformed to Poseidon.

According to the logic of the Age of Gods, this means that Crete will from now on be marked by the Poseidon faction and be dominated by it.

At the same time, this sea **** will also replace the faith of the Great Mother Goddess and the Mistress and become the main object of sacrifice for the Minoans.

After that, once Poseidon wants to extend the tentacles of maritime divine power to the earth, then Crete and the Minoans will undoubtedly become his best springboard and driving target.

I have to say that this is a brilliant move.

But in the end, King Minos discovered the clues and chose to retaliate with others. He hid the Cretan bull and sacrificed an ordinary bull to Poseidon.

However, for the same method, it is reasonable for Poseidon to do it, and it is blasphemous for King Minos to do it.

The gap in strength determines the measure of justice. This is the cruel fact of the Age of Gods.

So, Poseidon became angry when his plan failed, and cursed the bull on the pretext of blasphemy, making King Minos' wife suffer from zoophilia, and seduced her into union with the Cretan bull. The Minotaur was born, the famous bull-headed monster.

Since their faith is so vivid, it would be the greatest insult to pour filth and notoriety on it.

After sorting out the general clues, Lorne looked at the old man with a little more pity.

At this time, little Medusa on the side spoke curiously.

“Where is that child?”

“Anna!”

Lorne's voice became thicker and his eyes looked angry.

It is a bit rude after all to let an old man who has suffered humiliation reveal this scar again.

“It doesn't matter.”

King Minos waved his hand slightly, looked at little Medusa with gentle eyes, showed the tolerance of an elder to this little angel, and answered in a deep voice.

"He is fine, but he was locked in the underground palace by me. Because of the curse, he is full of demonic nature and can easily lose control, so he cannot be released easily."

“Then does he eat people?”

Another innocent yet offensive question, Lorne couldn't help but cover his face with a wry smile.

"Haha, of course I won't eat it! This is just a rumor spread by the city-states outside who are afraid of us Minoans in order to slander and discredit our emblem."

King Minos smiled generously and explained patiently.

　　When little Medusa got the news, she couldn't help but pat her chest and murmured with relief.

“That's good, that's good…”

As a monster, she also has magicalness. She is afraid of her future and will become a rumor, becoming a bloodthirsty monster.

Lorne noticed it, reached out his hand angrily, rubbed his random little head, and then looked at King Minos.

“So, Daedalus is also part of Poseidon's plan?”

King Minos nodded, his eyes cold.

"Although this man was talented, because he was jealous and afraid that his nephew Talos would surpass him, he frantically coaxed his young nephew to the wall of Athens, then pushed him down and killed the child. In the end, he His crimes were exposed, and he himself was sentenced to death by the Athenians.

However, because of his identity and contribution, he was exempted from the death penalty and was exiled to Crete.

At that time, I happened to be trapped by the curse of Poseidon, and I cherished his talent, so I recruited him and wanted to give him a chance to use what he had learned for the sake of the goddess.

But unexpectedly, he somehow secretly reached a cooperation with Poseidon, and smeared the bodily fluids of a cow in heat on the thing he made..."

　　At this point, King Minos, as the master of suffering, looked gloomy and terrifying, and he obviously wanted to pull Daedalus out and cut him into pieces.

At this time, Lorne understood clearly.

It was the queen who suffered from zoophilia. Since King Minos knew this, he would definitely hide his wife and beware of Poseidon's revenge by borrowing the Cretan bull. But in the end, the queen did not take the initiative to find the Cretan bull to cheat on her. Instead, the queen got into the wooden bull and was accurately targeted by the Cretan bull that broke into the palace, and then she died.

Obviously, there must be something fishy here.

If Daedalus didn't do anything, it wouldn't make sense at all.

Hence, the death of his son while crossing the Sea of Oceanus was the retribution for his repeated evil deeds.

Of course, it is also possible that Athena did it secretly...

“Wait a minute, since Poseidon did such an outrageous thing, what about Zeus? Doesn't he care? He is your father!”

At this time, Hestia on the side couldn't bear it anymore. She threw her promise of "just eat and don't talk" behind her and looked at her eldest nephew with some indignation.

"Father?"

King Minos sneered and shook his head expressionlessly.

“I have prayed to him countless times, but he has never answered my call...”

“Could it be that you didn't hear it?”

As soon as Hestia opened her mouth, she subconsciously shook her head and overturned the idea.

The face of God cannot be looked directly into.

The name of God should not be spoken lightly.

This kind of thing related to faith and divinity has been mentioned repeatedly. Zeus, who is the subject of the call, cannot know anything about it.

What's more, King Minos himself was a pure bloodline of him and the mortal goddess Europa.

Just based on the connection between father and son, it is impossible for Zeus to be indifferent to this.

For a moment, Hestia was a little confused because she couldn't think of an answer.

"I couldn't figure it out before. I always thought that I was the first to break the oath. He was unable and unwilling to stand up for me and confront his brother."

King Minos spoke calmly as expected, then changed the subject and revealed sarcasm.

“Until one day, the goddess told me that I should not worship the mother **** more than the father god, nor should I think of sacrificing a real Cretan bull to her to atone for my sins.”

I see!

Lorne's eyes widened, and the last mystery in his mind was solved.

It's not that Zeus was unaware, on the contrary, he knew Poseidon's little moves from the beginning!

For, without his acquiescence, how could the Poseidon extract the incarnation of divinity and kingship in Crete from the promised land he gave to his sons?

The reason for all this is also very simple.

The Minoans worshiped the Mother Goddess more than the Father Gods.

Even, this King Minos actually planned to sacrifice the divinity left by Zeus to Athena.

This undoubtedly violated the taboo of the god-king.

After all, the curse buried deep in the Titan's bloodline has been keeping the god-king awake at night.

But I am afraid that Zeus had all the calculations and precautions, but he never thought that the Cretan bull, which contained the royal power and divinity of Crete, would eventually become a sacrifice to Athena after many twists and turns.

With the decline of the Minoan civilization, the out-of-control Cretan bull ran rampant on the island of Crete, breathing fire and causing disasters.

Until Heracles, who was burdened with the twelve trials, landed on Crete, conquered it, and then dedicated it to Hera in its entirety.

But the Queen of Heaven, either ignorant of the goods or deliberately humiliated, directly released the sacrifice that Hercules had offered her.

Finally, the Cretan bull was captured by Theseus, the prince of Athens, and sacrificed to Athena.

With a sneer in his heart, Lorne looked up at his brother, who had almost white hair and beard, and an old and sad face, with pity in his eyes.

“So, from then on, you stopped worshiping God the Father?”

“Since God no longer favors people, people have no obligation to worship God anymore.”

King Minos nodded quietly, his gentle words filled with a touch of sarcasm.

“What's more, it was the prophet Prometheus who created our bodies, and it was the great mother goddess Athena who gave us our souls. The gods only created this box called [the world].”

As one of the main gods, Hestia opened her mouth and wanted to argue. In the end, she was speechless and chose to press her lips together and lower her head to eat.
