Chapter 347: Iapetus
"Old Gods, Playground!" Wang Xu put away his mobile phone, and his brows furrowed into Sichuan characters.
According to mythology, the Titans were difficult to kill, and Zeus, who achieved victory, only sealed them away.
If this voice is really Iapetus, then this is the place where he seals a powerful Titan god who is equivalent to the main god of Olympus, who is immortal.
Wang Xu racked his brains, there are many stories about the gods of Olympus, there are many movies and anime, what kind of world is this.
Clash of the Gods, Hercules Biography, Troy, Wrath of the Gods, Anime Mythology of Olympus?
But these movies and cartoons don't involve modern times, this world is obviously modern, and the sealed place of Iapetus is full of cameras, and these things can't be made by Iapetus himself.
Previously Iapertos said that let him go to the basement to choose his fate, and pleasing him will get a reward.
So what is the fate, and what is the reward,
Although Iapotus is not a Chinese god, he is also a top powerhouse in Greek mythology, standing at the pinnacle of a god system.
The reward given by such an existence, if Wang Xu is not moved, it is false.
It's just that Wang Xu is not a brainless person, and before deciding whether to enter the pit, he plans to go and see the person who left the camera.
Leaving the cabin, Wang Xu found a hidden camera from inside a honeycomb.
Holding the camera in his hand, Wang Xu was silent for a moment and said, "Who are you, what's going on with the playground, and what is hidden here?" ”
There was silence all around, and no one answered the question at all.
Wang Xu waited for a few minutes, and after seeing that no one answered, he spoke: "Lord Eapertos, tell me this is a playground, and I think you can also tell me something." ”
When it comes to Iapotos, Wang Xu uses honorifics, because he knows that everything he does is in the sight of Iapetos.
Hearing the name iapetus, a red light flashed on the camera, and a voice rang out from it, "In ancient Greek mythology, the gods liked to create difficulties for warriors and let them complete the challenges given to them, and now Lord Iapertus has chosen you, and you are the warrior." ”
"Who are you?" Wang Xu continued to ask.
"We are witnesses, and we are responsible for recording your deeds and keeping them in the collections of adults forever. This is a playground for adults, you come to the playground, your fate is doomed, don't try to escape, there is only a dead end. ”
Wang Xu was silent for a long time, knowing that he had hit the muzzle of the gun.
When he first descended to this plane, there were no cameras around him, let alone the gaze of Iapetus.
It's good now, damn grasshopper jumping into the pot, he's walking into the playground by himself, and it's a playground to entertain others.
Do you regret it, a little, but more helplessly.
Because when he just crossed over, Wang Xu didn't know that this was the place of seals, let alone the paradise of Iapetus.
If he knew, he would definitely not come easily, but unfortunately it was too late to regret it now, and the only thing to be thankful for was that the secret of the shuttle door was not revealed.
"Wait, I stepped through the shuttle door, and after about a few minutes, I saw the first camera, and then the will of Iapetus came. Now that I think about it, it's scary, it can't be that the shuttle door deliberately put me on the periphery and let me walk in front of Iapetus, right? ”
Wang Xu suddenly had a more frightened thought, every time he had a new plane, the position where the shuttle door was opened was not far from the protagonist and the plot.
Recall that the shuttle door really has a certain quality, always sending him around the place of the incident.
Once or twice is a coincidence, every time it's like this, is it still a coincidence?
Especially this time, close to the range of the playground, the will of Iapetus will descend.
The shuttle door is not far away, and it just puts him outside the shroud of will, even if the shuttle door does not have its own will, I am afraid that it has some kind of ability to welcome good fortune and avoid evil.
Wang Xu lowered his head slightly, looking at the door frame sign on his wrist that only he could see.
The shuttle door can open different planes because of the blue thunder that day.
What kind of thunder is that, when he was holding the security door, he didn't do anything when the thunder hit, but the door changed.
If he had the chance, he really wanted to find out the reason and see what caused the ability to shuttle through time and space.
It's just that this question is not something he can ponder now, Wang Xu thought about it and pressed the doubt in his heart, or wait until he has the strength to solve the puzzle, and then think about this problem.
Suppressing the distractions in his heart, Wang Xu returned to the hut again, intending to see what the test of Iapetus was.
According to the guidance of Iapetus, Wang Xu found a downward secret door from the corner of the living room.
Pull open the secret door and go down, through the stairs, there is a basement of dozens of square meters.
When Wang Xu's feet stepped on the ground, the light bulb hanging in the basement lit up, and the light illuminated the surroundings.
With the help of the dim light, Wang Xu looked at everything here.
The basement looks like a showroom, surrounded by shelves filled with hundreds of old objects.
Wang Xu walked to the wooden frame, and the first thing he saw was a hockey mask, and there was a sign next to it that read "Jason's mother loves you".
Looking east, next to the hockey mask, there is a clown mask, the color of the mask is so intense, and the smile is extremely weird.
Next to the clown mask, there is a box of videotapes and a model of a house.
Looking to the side, it was a handful of gray hair, what kind of hair Wang Xu didn't know, it looked very dirty anyway.
Hockey masks, clown masks, videotapes, gray fur, diaries, conch, witch hats, scarecrows, music boxes, scalpels, skulls, jack-o'-lanterns...
On a shelf, there was a thing, and Wang Xu, who was looking at it, frowned slightly.
Faintly, he was somewhat familiar with these images, but he couldn't remember where he had seen them.
"Do you want to go back to the modern day and find out what kind of world this is?" As soon as this thought arose, there was a burst of vigilance in Wang Xu's heart.
Only then did he remember that he was under the watchful eye of Iapetus, and if he used the shuttle door to leave, he would probably be watched.
Suppressing the idea of wanting to go back to find the answer, Wang Xu raised his head slightly and said, "This is the test?" ”
No one answered, neither Iapetus nor those who claimed to be witnesses.
After hesitating for a moment, Wang Xu spoke again: "I want to choose the difficulty, and I also want to know the reward." ”
There was silence for a long time, and after a long time, someone replied: "Every item here represents a curse, take the item to meet the challenge, the more you choose, the more difficult the challenge will be, and the more rewards." But I'm sorry, it's been a long time since a warrior has appeared in the playground of Lord Iapetos, we only have experience in dealing with sacrifices, and you are the first warrior we have ever seen. ”
"Sacrifice, warrior?" Two completely different words made Wang Xu think more.
The word sacrifice is often associated with sacrifice, and the word warrior is more legendary.
In ancient Greek mythology, the gods liked to set difficulties and choose people they approved to complete tasks, so as to bestow divine favors.
Many of these warriors have left a strong mark in mythology, and their endings are not the same, some have retired successfully, and some have failed to succeed in their careers, pleasing the gods with their own lives and deaths.
Wang Xu didn't act rashly, he knew too little, if he was a warrior in Greek mythology who challenged the gods to set up difficulties, then what was the sacrifice.
"What is the difference between a warrior and a sacrifice?"
"The sacrifices are those who offer sacrifices, and they are not capable of completing the challenge, so they can only win the favor of the gods by their own deaths. Warriors are different, warriors have the ability to complete challenges, and the mission that is certain for sacrifices is only slightly difficult for warriors, and this is the difference. Well, accept your challenge, and don't ask us any more, Lord Iapetos, who doesn't like what we talk too much. ”
The sound died down, and silence returned.
Wang Xu nodded slightly, looked at the wooden frame in front of him, and slowly stretched out his hand.
