Chapter 16: Hercules

Young Hercules was a special child, he showed extraordinary strength from an early age, and when his adoptive parents found him, he happened to have fun throwing two cobras in his hands.

When he really came of age, he was able to pull a carriage to help his old father with his work, and the reason why Hercules pulled the carriage instead of a horse was because he was stronger than a horse and did not need to use a horse at all.

However, recently, Hercules felt a little strange, because he could always see some strange situations recently, such as his little white horse, which he had seen before, and the next moment he walked in from outside, and he thought at first that he was dazzled or that there were really two horses, but later he encountered it several times, and found that this did not seem to be an illusion at all.

For this reason, he went to the priest specifically, and the priest said that it was a gift from God, and then a bunch of nonsense. Hercules knew that there were Olympian gods in this world, and there were many powerful demigod heroes, but his subconscious told him that this thing was not a miracle at all.

So Hercules said goodbye to his elderly adoptive parents and prepared to go out on a rampage. As a result, he was told by his adoptive parents that he might be the heir of the god Zeus. He also gave him a strange badge with a pattern of thunder and clouds, which Hercules had seen, because the statue of Zeus in the village had such a pattern.

Originally, because of doubt, he wanted to go far away to pursue the answer, but before leaving, he got another question, he is actually the heir of the gods, a person who can become a demigod hero? But can you really do it? Hercules asked himself this question in his heart, but what he got was confusion and even greater doubt.

He has good strength, so although there were some situations on the way, he still came to the city of Athens, in the temple of Zeus in the city of Athens, he saw a huge statue of Zeus, he looked at the people around him, and was a little embarrassed to say what was on his mind, so he hid it and prepared to wait for everyone to leave the temple before coming out.

Of course, this temple is the temple where the prophet came in before, but in the eyes of ordinary people, this temple only has the previous section, there is a huge statue of Zeus, and nothing else, but in the eyes of the program, the backyard of the temple also exists, and that is where Zeus and the prophet are observing Hercules.

"Hercules has arrived." Zeus looked at the man who had climbed to the top of a pillar in the temple like a little monkey, and turned to the prophet.

"The plan has already begun, so I won't stay with you anymore." As he spoke, the Prophet transformed into a strange creature that was half human, half sheep, and then disappeared into a string of data. Although the Prophet does not have much authority in the Matrix World, since the current Matrix World is a mythological era, she can also use some simple applications.

"I'd like to see what Hercules can do. There's everything you can enjoy here, and outside it's just a bare and dark desert, it's the end of the world, and no one wants to stay in that place. Zeus said lightly.

At the same time, Wang Xiaoming appeared on the land of Athens again, but this time some of the discord on his body also disappeared, in fact, he also thought that he would be discovered before, but he didn't think that it would be so fast, but after fighting with those people, he knew the background of this world, and he also thought about how the other party found himself.

If it's just fighting, of course Wang Xiaoming won't be afraid, but his purpose now is to observe the world, and find a way to save people from it, as well as find a place to place humans, after all, the environment outside, don't let humans die there as soon as they go out, then it's better to let them continue to live in the false world, at least here they can live their whole lives, although it's just false.

After countless crossings, he more or less realized how omnipotent the energy in his body was, so he used some energy to disguise the anomalies in his body, so that unless he showed special abilities, those programs could not detect him.

He sat in a restaurant in Athens, looked at the variety of food in it, resisted the urge to roll his eyes, and ordered a burger and fat house happy water, well, that's right, in the mythological era of ancient Greece, there were things that only exist in modern society, but these are very sought after by the locals.

"Praise be to Archette (the ancient Greek god of dining) for giving us such delicious food." A diner shouted praise.

"Haha, you're from another city, this kind of food is only available in our Athens City, I heard that it was made for the god king Zeus at the beginning, and the god king took pity on us mortals and gave us this food." The other man, who seemed to be a native of the city of Athens, said proudly: "Therefore, in addition to the praise of Acert, we must also praise Zeus, the god-king."

Then some people began to praise Zeus, and even one of them, who seemed to be a poet, even wrote a long poem, so that the owner of the restaurant directly exempted the other party from the meal, and looked very happy.

"If there are no such contradictory things, it is false to say that you can think of this world?" Wang Xiaoming ate a hamburger and drank Coke, and found that the taste was really exactly the same as he remembered.

It's no wonder that so many people want to return to the matrix world after leaving the matrix world, after all, there are no hamburgers or cokes in the real world at all, there is just boundless darkness and despair, especially in the current situation, if Wang Xiaoming does not solve the problem of accommodation, he may get out a few people who are willing to leave today, and he will be attacked by these people the day after tomorrow.

Wang Xiaoming lived in the city of Athens, and was ready to have a good talk with the manager here, that is, Zeus, of course, if you can't talk, then directly absorb the other party's energy, you use human beings as energy, Wang Xiaoming feels that he can also use the other party as his own energy.

As a result, when Wang Xiaoming approached the temple of Zeus in the dark night, he saw that there was already a tall blonde man talking to the statue of Zeus, and then Wang Xiaoming knew from him that this blonde man was actually the famous Hercules.

"No, what version of Hercules is this?" Wang Xiaoming looked at this scene and was a little confused, and then he saw the statue of Zeus activated and talked to Hercules.

Listening to the scene where Zeus let Hercules pass twelve trials before he could return to the divine realm, and still recommended a teacher, Wang Xiaoming became more and more confused, because according to the mythological story, it should be the queen of heaven Hera who arranged the twelve trials.

"Okay, you robots are changing and deepening, hum, adaptation is not random editing, you wait to apologize to the humans all over the world!" I thought about it for a while, but Wang Xiaoming's thinking was very clear, because just now Hercules said what he had encountered, and then Wang Xiaoming guessed that Hercules had discovered the "truth" of the world

"I just don't know if it's because of Hercules' peculiarities, or if they did it on purpose?" As a person who was once trapped in the matrix world, Wang Xiaoming knew very well how difficult it was to know the "truth" of the matrix world, so he was a little skeptical.
