Chapter 238: Prometheus!
In the battle of the Titans that took place when Zeus rebelled against Cronus, Prometheus, as a descendant of the Titans, sided with the new Olympus god, so Zeus appreciated it and stayed on Mount Olympus. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Prometheus was a god of invention, and he took from all kinds of animals, good or evil, such as the courage of a lion, the loyalty and intelligence of a dog, the industriousness of a horse, the vision of an eagle, the strength of a bear, the meekness of a pigeon, the cunning of a fox, the timidity of a rabbit, and the greed of a wolf.
In this way, they can move like animals, but they are only half-life, because they lack the aura of the god who created them.
Among the gods, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, was a friend of Prometheus. She watched in amazement from Mount Olympus at what Prometheus did.
When she found Prometheus helpless when she looked at his creations, she hurried down from Mount Olympus and breathed the vital breath of God into their mouths, and they gained wisdom and sanity, and became real people.
After the creation of man, Prometheus acted as a teacher of mankind, teaching mankind everything that was useful to man and could make him satisfied and happy.
In the same way, people thanked him with love and loyalty, but Zeus, the supreme leader of the gods, demanded that mankind worship him and that mankind must give him the best.
After this, the gods held a joint meeting. This conference will determine the rights and duties of humanity, and Prometheus attended it as the defender of humanity. But in defending mankind, he offended Zeus.
As a punishment for him. Zeus refused to give humanity the last thing they needed in order to complete their civilization: fire.
But Prometheus, the son of the shrewd Iapetus, immediately devised a way to remedy this defect.
He plucked a branch of woody fennel and walked to the sun cart, and when it passed through the sky, he stretched the branch into its flame until the branch burned.
He took the fire and brought it to the earth, and brought it to mankind, and immediately the first pillar of fire from the jungle rose to the sky. Zeus. The one who was furious, when he saw the flames rising from among the human beings, and the flames of the flames were far and wide, it stabbed his soul.
So Zeus was furious, and he commanded the god of fire to give Prometheus the harshest punishment.
But Hephaestus, the god of fire, admired Prometheus very much, and whispered to him: "As long as you admit your mistake to Zeus and return the fire, I will ask Zeus to forgive you." ”
Prometheus shook his head. Firmly said: "For the benefit of mankind, what is wrong!" I can endure all kinds of pain, but I will never admit my mistakes, let alone return the fire! ”
The god of fire did not dare to disobey the orders of Zeus. With two servants, with violence and force, take Prometheus to the Caucasus Mountains, with a chain that will never end. Tie him up to a steep cliff so that he can never sleep. Tired knees can't bend either.
There was also a diamond nail nailed into his undulating chest, locking his divine power. Do not use. Let him be like a mortal, enduring hunger, wind and sun.
In addition, Zeus also sent an abominable eagle to peck at Prometheus' liver every day, and the liver was eaten up during the day, but because of the immortality of the god's body, the liver would grow back at night, so that there would be no end to the pain that Prometheus endured.
Still, Prometheus did not give in. And so, day after day, year after year.
Prometheus glanced at Yuan Gang, who was a little gloating, and was not angry, and said calmly: "I know you, you are the god who dares to anger the God of Light, I don't know what you want to do when you come to our Olympus, do you want to make a scene?" ”
Yuan Gang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, because the laughter was so intense that he somersaulted in the air, he hid his inner surprise through laughter, who would have thought that this god, who had been imprisoned, actually knew his behavior so clearly, and I am afraid that no one would be comfortable in the face of such a person.
He looked at Prometheus with a smile and said, "If you're right, I'm fighting for exactly this purpose, I'm sure you'll be happy!" After all, the people who have been helped by themselves have been hung on top of this bleak mountain, **** endure the torture of vultures, even if the heart is as vast as the sky, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it! ”
Prometheus's eyes flashed, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest because of Yuan Gang's ridicule, he smiled slightly: "My mother left me eyes that can sense the fate of others, although some time it is very vague, I already know the purpose of your trip, but have you considered the consequences?" Your fate is plausible, I can't know, but I know it won't be as calm as a frozen lake,
It's just that the current Olympian gods are stronger than the previous generations, no matter what your calculations are, how powerful you are in the future, but now you only have the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Supreme God, so I hope you don't break the peace here, I can only see your purpose, the rest is a fog, I have a bad premonition...... Listen to my advice to go back, don't break the peace......"
Yuan Gang's heart moved slightly when he heard this, but he couldn't help it, and laughed: "Haha! To be honest, I really didn't expect you to be willing to be locked to this mountain peak where birds don't for the sake of human beings, how could you make such a mistake if you are a wise man of the Titan Protoss? ”
Prometheus glanced at the funny Yuan Gang, and said lightly: "You don't understand me, just like I can't see through you, who in this world can fully understand each other?" The vast majority of life, I'm afraid that I can't even fully understand myself! Since I did it, I won't regret it. ”
Yuan Gang heard Prometheus's words, his eyes were staring at him, and Prometheus smiled, and he didn't dodge Yuan Gang's sword-like gaze, he didn't care, Yuan Gang's heart sank, from which it can be guessed that this Prometheus's cultivation must be extraordinary, and from Yuan Gang's insight, the day Prometheus gets out of trouble is the time for him to preach!
After pondering for a moment, Yuan Gang smiled and said, "Since your eyes can see through the future, then you tell me, will my trip go well?" ”
Prometheus didn't speak but hung his head silently, he had already guessed from Yuan Gang's words that what Yuan Gang was going to do next was imperative, but because both sides of this matter were very involved with him, he was silent. (To be continued.) )
