Chapter 657: First Intervention
Mycenaean royal palace
The princess's boudoir is very warm and cozy, with a thick wool blanket and a white wool blanket to keep the whole room clean, and a large bed in the center.
The large bed was made of wood, and there were several floors, and the princess Electra was lying on the large bed.
There seemed to be a wind outside, and the branches collided in the wind and made a "crackling" sound, and she struggled uneasily, and had a strange dream, which was full of fire, and the sound of killing, and everyone panicked, covered in blood, but she couldn't see who it was.
Electra was very frightened, she unconsciously hid between the pillars, which she was familiar with, but at this time she always felt that the pattern was quite strange, and only after a few steps, suddenly, she saw a terrible scene.
In front of me, there was a bathroom, a familiar woman, raising a knife to stab a man, the man screamed, reached out for help, and the knife still stabbed down.
She covered her mouth and pressed herself screaming.
The woman seemed to feel something, and looked back, but only looked empty.
Princess Electra trembled all over, in front of her, was an almost perfect man, no, she understood, this was not a mortal, this was a god, he blocked her view.
"Who are you?" asked Electra.
"I am Paris, the former prince of Troy, now the vanishing god, and your father Agamemnon promised to build me a temple and slaughter cattle and sheep for sacrifice, so I have mercy. ”
"Behold, thy mother hast slain thy father, and now there is a fierce battle outside, and the warriors loyal to thy father have sunk into the underworld. ”
"Go, the massacre is already underway, and you must quickly transport your brother Orestes out of the palace to King Strophius of Fanothe, who is the brother-in-law of your father Agamemnon and will take care of your brother until he reaches adulthood. ”
Princess Electra crushed her lips and tears splashed, she could hardly believe the truth of this story, but the royal education and the blood of the gods told her that it was all true.
Pei Ziyun said: "Hurry, it's too late, your ruthless mother will kill even her son." ”
"Ahh
"Ahh
"Help!"
"Queen, why did you kill us, we are loyal warriors of the royal family. ”
"How can there be such a cruel mother in the world. "The princess Electra came to her senses, hid her face and wept, and became a princess, she had been educated to know that it was a dream and a reminder from God.
The god of vanishing, she does not doubt that there is a true god in this world, a soul who is not a true god, even if he is deceived into obtaining the temple, he will only be greeted with destruction.
Princess Electra burst into tears with a pang of grief in her heart, and she knew that what the vanishing god said was true, because she had indeed seen what had happened, and the screams resounded in the night sky, and the princess was terrified to hear it, how many years had it been since this tragedy had happened in the Mycenaean kingdom, and she had never experienced such a tragedy.
She knew that she couldn't wait any longer, so she quickly opened the door, looked around, and saw that no one was paying attention to her, so she immediately ran out.
Her brother Orestes' room was not far away, she walked through the corridor and quickly entered his brother's room, and when she saw that he was still asleep, she quickly woke him up and said, "Listen, Orestes, we don't have much time, God tells me that Mother has killed our father Agamemnon, and will come to kill you, and now I must let you escape as soon as possible." ”
"Sister, do you want to come with me?" Orestes woke up, and although he was only eleven or twelve years old, he immediately grabbed the dagger.
"No, I can't leave for the time being, you just go with the servant. ”
Then she called another servant, and paid Orestesto to the faithful servant, and said, "Bring the prince to the kingdom of Fanotes, and find King Strophius, and tell him what is happening, and he will understand what to do." ”
Seeing that the servant seemed to want to ask, Princess Electra said, "Go, go, time is urgent!"
The servant did not dare to delay, and ran out with Orestes, and the princess Electra was very worried, there were many enemies outside, and if she was caught, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At this moment, a phantom appeared in front of her, it was Pei Ziyun, and said to Princess Electra: "Don't worry, your brother will be protected by me, and he will grow up safely." ”
As he spoke, the phantom that Pei Ziyun had turned into followed and disappeared in an instant.
Princess Electra immediately knelt down and prayed silently to Pei Ziyun.
"O great vanishing god, I hope that you will protect my brother Orestes, and I will carry on my father's promise to build a temple for you and sacrifice cattle and sheep for you. ”
In this world, in this era, it is reasonable that the cost of sacrificing a god is not large, but it is not simple to agree to build a temple.
In this era, it was very valuable to build a temple, and the king only built temples for a few gods, and became the protector of the city-state.
Pei Ziyun listened to Princess Electra's words, and a smile floated, with Princess Electra's promise, the affairs of the temple would be relatively stable.
The servant took Prince Orestes to stop and go all the way, trying to avoid the patrol soldiers, and was almost discovered by the soldiers several times on the way, it was impossible to avoid these soldiers according to the route and ability, but Pei Ziyun helped.
A thin layer of fog, followed along the way, so that the people outside the fog couldn't see what was in the fog at all, even if someone planned to go deep into the fog, they would quickly get lost in the fog, and because it was night, so with Pei Ziyun's help, the servant took Prince Orestes out of the city very smoothly.
"Quick, quick!" the servant hastened to the harbor with Orestes, and without knowing what he had said, a ship soon received the prince, and set sail at once, and made his way to Fanote.
Shortly after Orestes left, Aegistus rushed to the entrance of the room, took one look, and ordered: "Open the door and kill Orestes." ”
"Yes!" the soldier immediately carried out the order, only to hear a "boom", the door kicked open, and the soldier with the cold light of the weapon rushed in.
But there was no screaming.
"King, we have not found Orestes, there is no one in it. ”
"What?" Aegystos went in with a calm face, and sure enough, it was empty, and when he touched the blanket, it was still warm inside, and immediately changed color: "Quick, search the palace." ”
"Defend all the gates, and be sure to find Aegystos. ”
In the room not far away, the princess Electra looked at her murderous cousin Aeistus, as well as the soldiers, and covered her mouth, God was right, mother and cousin Aeistus wanted to kill her brother, if Orestes did not leave, he would be directly blocked by these people, and there would be no chance to escape.
Fortunately, with God's reminder, Orestes left in time, and now Aegistos and his soldiers pounced in the air, his face gloomy.
He searched the entire palace, but found no trace of Orestes, even if it was extended to the city
"Orestes ran away, I don't know where he went. Aegystos said to Clytemnestra.
Clytemnestra's face is also very bad, and now he has run away from Orestes, which can be revenged at any time in the future.
"Have you found out who helped him escape?" asked Clytemnestra.
"We haven't found it yet, but our soldiers have already gone to the gates of the city to check it. Aevestos said.
"Well, do everything you can to get Orestes back, or we're all in danger. Clytemnestra said.
Orestes was a descendant of Zeus, which cast a shadow over both of them, and they couldn't help but think, "Maybe the gods helped Orestes escape." ”
Mount Olympus
Pei Ziyun came back to his senses, and at this time, the banquet dispersed, and the wine banquet on the table was gradually removed, and the table was not scattered in the slightest, this is the world of the gods, even if a grand banquet is held, it is orderly.
And Pei Ziyun looked at the gods who got up, and sighed a lot, he didn't expect the gods' means of intervening in mortals to be so magical, and he was even more amazed by the hierarchy between the main gods.
"The same twelve main gods, even with the addition of Hades and Poseidon, who did not participate in the banquet, Zeus is still the undisputed first god. ”
"Demeter was strong, Athena was second, Artemis again. ”
"Apollo, who has always protected Troy, is not as good as Artemis, and the three goddesses of fate are also involved in the banquet, and their power is also very strong, each on a par with Apollo. ”
"Hephaestus, who has a vague opinion about me, is next in the ranking, while Aphrodite and Ares are still below it. ”
"The great Hera was not as powerful as Ares in her own right, but she had part of the authority of Zeus and was able to give orders. ”
"Then there are Hermes, Dionysus. ”
"The strength of the twelve main gods is ten times different, and although Dionysus has the name of the main god, he is not much stronger than me. ”
Watching the gods gradually retreat, Pei Ziyun also got up and slowly walked towards the main hall.
Along the way, Pei Ziyun was carefully feeling the feelings when he threw himself into other people's dreams and used phantoms to interfere with the fate of mortals, which was difficult to do before.
In the past, mortals never knew that gods could intervene in this way.
Pei Ziyun came out and arrived at the pillars, which were made of white marble, carved with many reliefs, and the reliefs were the deeds of various gods.
Athena was standing, seemingly waiting.
"Paris, very good projection, just the right intervention, you have quickly mastered the skills of the gods, which even Hercules did not fully grasp - and now you are going to a distant island?"
Pei Ziyun listened to Athena's words and waited for her next.
"You've passed the test and become part of the extended family to stay. Athena said.
"I'm happy to be part of this big family, but I'd better go somewhere far. Pei Ziyun said, pointing to Greece: "The descendants of Hercules are ready to establish a new kingdom, and I don't want to compete with him in Greece or nearby." ”
"You're wise. Athena nodded, according to Athena's idea, Pei Ziyun could not easily give up entering Greece, after all, the opportunity was rare, and Hercules had been fighting for it.
"Don't you think about it? Staying in Greece, staying in Olympus, will save you a lot of detours. ”
"No, no, I've decided to go to a distant island. Pei Ziyun said, not only are there too many secrets, but also as a family-style god system, although Paris is also a descendant of Zeus, it is obvious that he can't have much room for development at all.
If so, why bother?
After speaking, Pei Ziyun turned to leave, while Athena stood quietly on the pillar, watching Pei Ziyun fly down Mount Olympus.
