That’s right, a thug.
Zeus is not interested in handing over his artifact to others, he wants to take the thunder and fire back. But he has to wait until the God Slayer Geer dies!
Hercules looked at Zeus with contempt, the kind of contempt that was completely undisguised.
Zeus saw the expression on his son's face.
He was immediately annoyed: "Look at you! You still want to succeed me and become the God King? You are just a reckless man who only knows how to fight! Courage cannot maintain rule, wisdom can!"
"But courage can make people willing to be ruled by you... Zeus, you are really corrupt. Just as corrupt as your father and grandfather!"
Hercules said without holding back.
Zeus's grandfather Uranus is an extremely primitive god. He only has the most primitive desires and doesn't care much about ruling or anything else. Uranus was born from the fingertips of Gaia, the original goddess of the earth. It symbolizes hope and the future, and represents the sky. He is a representative of hope and the future, but in the eyes of his children, he is a complete villain. At the beginning, the world was still a chaos (Chaos), and then Gaia, the mother of the earth, was born, and Gaia gave birth to Uranus. As we all know, the starry sky is connected to the earth. As the most powerful god at the time, he had always monopolized Gaia's fertility. Fertility was a right, and others did not have the right to fertility. Uranus was the ruler of the entire universe at that time.
Uranus is lying, lying on the earth (Gaia) that created him, and they are completely superimposed. Every piece of land has a piece of sky stuck to its skin. Gaia, the powerful god, gave birth to Uranus as her replica, her systematic reproduction, and from that moment on, we can see a pair of opposites: male and female. Uranus is the masculine sky, and Gaia is the feminine earth. Once Uranus appears, love plays a different role. It is no longer Gaia who only gives birth to what is in her body, and Uranus who only gives birth to what is in his body, but these two powerful forces combine to produce many different life forms. Uranus constantly vents his power in Gaia's arms. The original Uranus does nothing except give birth to Gaia.
At first, Uralos didn't care much about his children, that is, the Titans... In the eyes of modern people, Titan is used to describe huge things, but in fact this word is a completely derogatory term that Uralos used to humiliate his children.
In the eyes of children, he would not be a kind father. All children would tremble when they saw him. In the eyes of Uralos, these guys were all cowards. This father god often called these poor children "Titans", which means "tense ones". Of course, there are other meanings, such as princes and retribution.
But it's definitely not a good word.
But Uralus's mind soon changed because his children were born again, namely three hundred-armed giants Briareus, Cotus and Gyges and three Cyclops Brontes, Stropezius and Argus.
These six children are naturally strong.
The Hecatonchus, Briareus, Cotos and Gyges. They are all huge and ferocious monsters, even bigger than the Titans and Cyclops. In battle, the Hecatonchus can throw 100 rocks as big as a mountain at a time, which even the Titans can't resist.
In addition to their great strength, the Cyclops also possessed unparalleled forging skills (the artifacts of Zeus and his three brothers were all forged by them).
Uralos was not happy about the arrival of these children. Although he despised the weakness of the Titans, he was also afraid of the strength of the six giants. He did not allow anyone to share his power!
Uralos feared the power of these young ones,
Because Uranus was greedy for power, he bound Gaia and his children (the Hecatonchus and the Cyclops) in Gaia's body. Finally, Mother Earth (Gaia) could no longer bear it. She was sad and said to her children: "Listen to me, your father Uranus insulted us and made us endure his terrible power. This cannot go on any longer. You should rise up and resist Uranus."
Hearing these fierce words, the Titans in Gaia's belly were terrified. No one dared to speak. Uranus had always been on their mother's side. It was not easy to defeat him. Only the youngest son, Kronos, agreed to help his mother overthrow his father. Gaia and Kronos made a plan. She put a scimitar in the hands of little Kronos. At the moment when Uranus was venting his power on Gaia, he grabbed his father's sexual organ with his left hand, held it tightly, and then swung the scimitar with his right hand and cut it off.
Lanos is undoubtedly the most powerful, but everything has its limits, and it is precisely because of his cruelty that he is deserted by his friends and family, and in the end he can only be fixed at the highest point in the world forever, enduring the pain of loneliness.
The end of this era is very interesting, because although the new god is very powerful, he is destined to be overthrown by one of his own sons like his father. In order to avoid this, Kronos also imitated his father and swallowed his own child into his stomach, but the unchangeable fate still caused Kronos to be overthrown by his son Zeus.
That's why Hercules said they were corrupt.
When Uralos became afraid of his own children, he began to decay.
The same thing happened to Kroros, when he was afraid of his own children, he was no longer invulnerable. So he was defeated. (Kroros was also afraid of his six younger brothers, so he imprisoned them deep in Tartarus under the strict watch of the dragon Kampe.
In short, when the King of Gods begins to be afraid, is he still the King of Gods?
When Zeus heard this, his face changed immediately. His eyes widened, and he stood up all of a sudden, ignoring the screams of the fairies around him. His body suddenly grew larger, and he suddenly became a giant standing tall, with thunder wrapped around his body and golden eyes.
Even the originally greasy and fat body suddenly became fit and healthy.
The power is unparalleled.
This is the real God-King Zeus.
"I! Zeus! Am the King of Kings, Lord of the Sky, and King of the Gods of Olympus, forever! ! ! Little brat, it's too early for you to overthrow me!"
Hercules was not moved at all and still looked at Zeus with a sneer.
When he said these words, wasn't he acknowledging the existence of the curse and the fate he was bound to face?
Zeus...will be killed by his own children.
And Hercules thought that he was this person!
This is a prophecy.
After leaving the earth, the gods actually lost their freedom!
This is the most precious thing in the universe.
Because apart from the earth, everything in the universe revolves around fate. All people or things are in fate, and so are many civilizations in the universe. They have such things as prophets, and they can really see the future.
That was what fate gave them.
The earth was also in destiny before.
So no matter which myth it is, there is a glimpse into fate.
For example, the three goddesses of fate of Olympus!
Destiny is absolute! In Greek mythology, even the supreme king of gods Zeus cannot interfere with the work of the three goddesses of fate and disobey their arrangements. In a sense, the three goddesses of fate have an absolute power. There are no exciting stories related to them. All their characteristics reflect the absoluteness and ruthlessness of fate, reminding people to treat fate with awe. In Greek mythology, the three goddesses of fate are collectively called Moira. Legend has it that they are the daughters of the god king Zeus and the goddess of justice Themis. They are the eldest sister Atropolos, the second sister Lachesis, and the third sister Croesus. Their tasks are to weave and manage the thread of fate. Croesus is responsible for weaving the thread of fate, and the future is presented in her hands; Lachesis is responsible for maintaining and measuring the thread of fate, and now it belongs to her management; Atropolos is responsible for cutting the thread of fate, giving her the death to represent the past. They usually appear in the image of female elders, holding spindles, measuring rods, and scissors in their hands. Weaving, measuring, and cutting, the three goddesses use the objects in their hands to materialize the beginning of fate. They know everything that has happened in the past, present, and future.
In addition to their mysterious and unpredictable nature, their absolute authority over fate is above all other gods. In addition to the fate of every mortal, they are also responsible for controlling the fate of all gods in Greek mythology, including the twelve Titans and the twelve main gods of Olympus. Despite having such authority, they have never participated in the various battles between the gods, and always keep aloof. They do not interfere in anything, nor do they allow anything to interfere with their duties.
The thread of fate from the hands of the three goddesses must be obeyed unconditionally and absolutely, because they are followed by the goddess of revenge. The goddess of revenge will take the most severe revenge on those who dare to resist fate. But they themselves do not represent death, but the decision makers of major events in fate, making it clear to people that once fate is decided, it cannot be changed. Zeus once said to the gods: "The goddess of fate treats me as cruelly as I treat you."
The three goddesses of fate embody the majesty, determination and cruelty of fate. They are mysterious and elusive, ruthless and irreversible, as awe-inspiring as fate!
Asgard also had the three goddesses of Norn before. The eldest daughter Urd (in charge of the "past", the second daughter Verdandi in charge of the "present", and the youngest daughter Shikoti in charge of the future. The three sisters not only control the fate of mankind, but can even predict the fate of the gods.
Urd is called "the noble one", Verdandi is called "the equally noble one", and Shikoti is called "the third noble one". They are also called "sisters who control fate" and "goddesses of records". Their main tasks are to weave the web of fate and draw water from the spring of Urd to irrigate the world tree.
Of course, after the immortals defeated the gods, these things no longer existed on Earth.
Asgard also no longer has the three goddesses.
But there is still room on the Pantheon side.
Even the three Fates of Olympus are still alive.
But they won't appear in front of people.
But Hercules saw them.
The three goddesses of fate cannot be found by anyone. They will only appear where they think they should appear and meet who they should meet.
Hercules saw the future.
Prometheus created human beings, stole fire from heaven for human beings, and brought fire to the world. This angered Zeus, who ordered people to tie Prometheus to a cliff with iron chains and let an eagle peck at Prometheus' body every day. This was a punishment for Prometheus. Hercules forced Zeus' children, Athena and others to unite with him to rebel against Zeus. After an unprecedented fierce battle, Zeus was finally killed by the rebels. In the end, Hercules successfully rescued Prometheus and made him regain his freedom. It is said that the god who finally replaced Zeus was also Prometheus. In order to rescue Prometheus who was imprisoned by Zeus, Hercules planned for many years, united with Zeus' children, led the rebels, and successfully killed Zeus.
At that time, Hercules didn't quite understand why he had to save him when he had already saved Prometheus.
He rescued Prometheus when he was trying to complete the task of finding the golden apple among the twelve tasks.
At that time, Prometheus was hanging on the cliff of Mount Caucasus, watching Pandora open the magic box and various disasters filling the earth, sky and sea. Diseases spread among humans day and night, raging silently because Zeus did not allow them to make any sound. Various fevers were rampant on the earth, and the god of death was running wildly among the people.
The prisoner was sentenced to eternal torture, at least thirty thousand years. Although he cried out loudly and called on the winds, rivers, sea, mother earth, and the sun that watched over all things to bear witness to his suffering, his spirit was indestructible. "Whoever learns to recognize the indomitable power of destiny," he said, "must bear the pains of destiny." Zeus repeatedly threatened him to explain his ominous prophecy that "a new marriage would bring ruin to the king of the gods" (referring to the marriage with the sea goddess Thetis, whose son would be more powerful than his father). But he never opened his mouth. Zeus kept his word and sent a vicious eagle to eat the liver of the bound Prometheus every day. As much of the liver was eaten, it soon returned to its original state. He had to endure this painful torture until someone would volunteer to sacrifice himself for him in the future.
After a long time, the day came when Prometheus could finally be relieved of his suffering. After he had been hanging on the cliff and had spent a long and miserable time, one day, Hercules came here in search of the Hesperides. He saw an eagle pecking at the liver of poor Prometheus, so he took out his bow and arrow and shot the cruel eagle down from the liver of the sufferer. Then he loosened the chains, freed Prometheus, and took him away from the cliff. But in order to meet Zeus's conditions, Hercules left Chiron, a centaur, on the cliff as a substitute. Although Chiron could ask for eternal life, he was willing to sacrifice his life to save Prometheus.
In order to fully execute Zeus's sentence, Prometheus must always wear an iron ring with a stone from the Caucasus Mountains inlaid on it, so that Zeus can proudly declare that his enemy is still chained to the cliffs of the Caucasus Mountains.
At least Hercules thought that this would indeed allow Prometheus to escape Zeus' punishment.
Unfortunately... being clever doesn't work. Zeus hated Prometheus... and Zeus was notoriously petty!
After coming out of the earth into the universe, Prometheus disappeared from everyone's sight.
No one knew where he went.
The reason why Hercules has not started rebelling is because he needs to find Prometheus!
This is the only way to unlock his destiny!
