Chapter 110: Athens (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass!) )

Akropolis, in Greek, originally means: a city on a high place or a city-state on a high hill

It is described as the Acropolis.

An ancient building located on the hill of the Acropolis in the center of Athens is dedicated to Athena, one of the twelve main gods of Mount Olympus and the goddess of wisdom in ancient Greek mythology.

The legendary goddess of war.

Patron saint of Athens.

On this day, a large number of Greeks and refugees from neighboring countries poured outside the Acropolis, and the waves had spread wildly to all parts of Greece, and countless coastal cities sank to the bottom of the sea.

Waves surged, sea beasts raged, countless cities were submerged in the waves, homes were destroyed, and the surviving Greeks were forced to flee north.

The raging waves showed no signs of stopping, shattering all obstacles in front of them, and then frantically engulfing and expanding, the furious sea beasts following closely behind.

By this time, the waves were already reaching the city of Athens.

Countless refugees crowded the streets of Athens, everyone looked panicked, the city of Athens was in a panic, and the city was in chaos at this time.

There was a surge of people, whether it was proposed or spontaneous, and everyone rushed towards the Acropolis in the center of the city after entering the city.

Because there is the Parthenon, there is their patron deity, Athena.

In the face of the raging natural disasters and beast tides, they were powerless, and everyone fell to their knees at the foot of the Acropolis, looking up at the ruined temple that stood on the mountain.

After thousands of years of wind and rain, the temple is still standing.

Looking at the temple on the top of the hill, a look of hope rose in the dead eyes of the street, and the mouth whispered reverently.

Little by little, the waves rushed towards Athens, and the nearby cities were swallowed up by the waves, and the drowning man was torn to pieces by the mad sea beasts in the blink of an eye, the blood stained the sea red, and the bones covered the bottom of the sea.

Among the sea creatures, led by the evolved creatures, they are frantically destroying the obstacles in front of them, leading the army of sea creatures, and madly wreaking havoc on the submerged city.

Especially the evolved creatures of the Great Western Continent, all of them have been shelled several times, almost all of the creatures have been injured, and the casualties are very serious.

It seems to be venting the hatred of the past.

Piercing sirens sounded in the city of Athens, street sirens sounded, and news of the advancing waves spread rapidly through the city, and it may not take more than an hour for the waves to come.

The streets out of the city have been crowded with cars, countless people have fled the city with their families, and the Athenian high-ups have fled in confusion, and the city is in chaos.

Chaos, riots.

Sirens blared, sirens sounded throughout the city, and desperate cries and curses echoed through the streets.

Some people fled frantically, and even drove directly into the vehicles and crowds in front of them, rushing out of the city, leaving only the wails and curses behind them!

Some people rushed into the supermarket, grabbed a bunch of wine, gulped whale drinks, and seemed to want to get drunk before the end came.

Some people burst into someone's door, and soon the room was filled with the sound of gunshots or the screams of women.

The humanity in despair is vividly reflected in this moment.

The whole city is in chaos.

Time passed minute by minute, the tide was getting closer and closer, and those who had not yet fled from the city all gave up the struggle at this time and stayed in the city in despair.

Or quietly waiting for death, or venting madly.

More and more people poured under the Acropolis, and the crowd that did not flee the city all walked out of their rooms and walked towards the Acropolis.

It became the only hope for the Athenians.

Countless people knelt down in the square at the foot of the mountain, and the sound of prayer spread throughout the Acropolis, and everyone prayed with devout expressions and prayed for the arrival of the gods.

Pray to the gods for salvation.

But the Acropolis still sits quietly on the hill, and the ruined temples do not react in the slightest.

The waves are getting closer.

The crowd under the Acropolis gradually began to despair, some people even insulted madly, tears kept pouring out of their eyes, and some people stopped praying one after another, and sat in the square decadently, waiting for death to come.

Minute by minute, the tide poured into the city.

The fallen leaves on the city streets were floated by the sea, and the surrounding buildings were gradually submerged.

The chaos in the city was completely calmed down, except for the sirens, like lamentations for the crowd.

Some lovers hugged their heads and kissed and cried bitterly.

Some old men clenched each other's hands and closed their eyes peacefully.

At the edge of the square, a little girl who couldn't find her parents cried blankly, the little girl had been crying for a long time, her throat was hoarse, and her eyes were red and swollen.

The waves are used fast towards the center of the city of Athens.

The nearby streets had been swallowed up by the waves, and the sea beasts swam and wreaked havoc in them, and everyone closed their eyes in despair.

In the huge square, it seemed that only the little girl's dazed cry was left, and everyone fell silent, silently hugging, kissing, and closing their eyes silently.

A fallen leaf on the edge of the square was floated by the sea, and the fallen leaf turned leisurely, drifting with the waves.

Getting closer.

The bodies of the outermost crowd in the square began to tremble, although it was best to prepare for death, but when death really came, no one could be calm.

Everyone suppressed the fear in their hearts and closed their eyes.

With a click, a huge amphibious sea beast stepped out of the sea and stepped on the ground of the square.

Looking at the dense crowd in the square, a fierce look flashed in the eyes of the sea beast, this is the look before hunting, the hideous mouth is open, and the slender tongue is waving in the air.

The sea beast roared.

Heaven and earth shook with a bang.

The sea beast shuddered, and suddenly took a few steps back, its tiny beast eyes looking around in horror.

One second, two seconds......

There was no concussion again, nothing happened, the horror in the sea beast's eyes dissipated, and the trembling body slowly stabilized, and continued to roar in the sky.

There was a thud again.

I saw a white light rising from the center of the Acropolis, a holy white light appeared on the ruined Parthenon, and sacred lines appeared on the broken stone pillars and walls.

The divine white light became more and more intense, and even enveloped the entire Parthenon, and the crowd around the Acropolis Square was all attracted by the vision on the top of the central hill and looked at the Parthenon in shock.

The divine white light was dazzling, making it impossible to open one's eyes.

The sea beast's tiny eyes looked at the white light from the top of the mountain in disbelief, and a warning roar came out of its throat.

The sea continued to rise, quickly engulfing the square.

The white light on the top of the mountain suddenly dispersed, and thousands of rays of light enveloped the entire square, and the square fell into a world of white light, and everyone closed their eyes to avoid the scorching white light.

The screams of sea beasts and the crashing waves seemed to sound in my ears.

After a long time, the white light faded and everyone opened their eyes.

There was silence between the heavens and the earth, only the faint wails of sea beasts and the sound of the crashing waves continued to echo, and I saw that the waves of expansion all stopped outside the square.

The edge of the square seems to have an invisible shield that separates the entire square, preventing the waves from moving forward.

The sea beast that had stepped into the square before was cut off at this time, and took the edge of the square as the boundary, half of its body was in the square, and half of its body was in the waves.

Blood flowed, and sea beasts wailed.

It was as if an invisible shield enveloped the entire square, and when the shield fell, it cut off the sea beasts.

The people in the square all looked at the edge of the square in disbelief, and some even reached out in confusion, and their arms were not hindered and passed through the edge of the square.

It even touched the rising cold waters.

The arms can move at will, but the waves are cut off from the square, and they can't go any further.

Magical.

Many people thought of the white light that had just fallen from the top of the mountain, and everyone looked up at the Parthenon on the top of the mountain, and their dead eyes began to regain their hopeful looks.

The waves outside the square are getting higher and higher, even higher than the crowd, and through the square, you can clearly see the ruins of the city in the blue water, as well as countless wreaking havoc sea beasts.

Many sea beasts spotted the crowd in the center of the square and rushed towards the square frantically, but with a bang, they hit the invisible shield and were catapulted out.

More and more sea beasts converged, constantly hitting the invisible shield that enveloped the square, and the entire square began to vibrate.

The crowd that had been relieved stood up in horror, looking at the sea beasts that were frantically storming the square around them, and there were more and more sea beasts, and even crowded the periphery of the square.

The heavens and the earth were darkened.

The square shook, the ground shook, the waves outside rolled, and countless hideous and terrifying sea beasts patrolled outside the square, staring at the humans in the square with hideous faces and fierce eyes.

It's like you're ready to hunt at any time!

If the shield of the square collapsed, they had no doubt that these sea beasts would be torn to pieces in an instant and buried at the bottom of the sea.

The sea is getting higher and higher, even surpassing most of the buildings in the city, submerging the entire city, leaving only the central square to support.

It's like an island in the middle of the sea.

The square shook more and more violently, the invisible shield seemed to be about to hold on, the surrounding sea beasts became more and more ferocious, just when everyone in the square was terrified, the temple in the center of the hilltop appeared again.

I saw that the relief on the wall of the temple was embossed with white light, and the figures on the relief actually moved flexibly, and the white light fell to the square, and the relief figures also came with the white light.

Most of the relief figures are Athenian girls or teenagers, with elegant forms, falling towards the square with white light.

I saw the edge of the square, a few smears of white and smooth, and I saw the appearance of elegant shapes, as if the perfect characters in the statues.

The little girl who was crying at the edge of the square fell to the ground at this time, looking at the sea beast that was frantically hitting the square in front of her with big eyes and horror, holding her mouth and tears streaming down.

But no one around could take care of the little girl, and everyone looked frightened.

The little girl trembled, her voice was completely hoarse, and she had no sound.

Suddenly, a hideous sea beast rushed out of the ocean in the distance, and crashed into the invisible barrier in front of the little girl, the hideous beast head continued to grow in the little girl's eyes, and the little girl's expression became more and more frightened.

In a trance, a white light fell.

I saw an elegant figure in the white light wave his hand suddenly, and the terrifying sea beast that came from the impact swept out directly and rolled into the distance.

The white light dissipated, and an elegant girl like a perfect relief appeared in front of the little girl's eyes, the girl's body was illusory, but it made people feel very close.

The little girl was stunned for a moment.

The elegant girl turned around, looked at the little girl who fell to the ground, bent down slightly, and stretched out her hand to the little girl.

The little girl held the palm that exuded holiness, and a smile appeared on the elegant girl's face, and she gently pulled the little girl up, and then stretched out a finger and put it on the little girl's dirty forehead.

The dust on her forehead receded, and the little girl's expression calmed down.

"Let's go back."

The little girl seemed to hear a gentle voice ringing in her ears, and then saw the elegant girl turn to look at the ocean in front of her.

A similar scene appeared at the edge of the square, and dozens of reliefs in the temple came out and landed on the edge of the square, turning into the illusory figures of elegant young boys and girls.

Dozens of figures stood at the edge of the square, facing the ocean, behind them a crowd of people whose expressions had gradually calmed down.

Dozens of figures seemed to glance at each other, and an elegant young man and girl slowly stretched out their arms, and the white light around them appeared, and the white light on the dozens of figures gradually connected together, surrounding the square.

The little girl, who had already walked back to the square, saw the elegant girl in front of her open her mouth and sing ancient and sacred notes.

All the boys and girls standing at the edge of the square glanced at each other, smiled at the corners of their mouths, and sang softly.

The notes are ancient and sacred, but everyone in the square can clearly understand the meaning of the lyrics.

Singing echoes in the square:

"I hear her holy horse neighing, the goddess is about to return......"

"Come on, the ancient ritual begins......"

With the soft singing, a sacred white light appeared on all the boys and girls, and the whole square was shrouded in divine light.

In the hilltop temple in the center of the square, the 92 murals of the temple began to flutter as the soft singing echoed, converging in the sky of the square with the white light.

Like a dome, everyone in the square looked up and saw pictures of Athenians fighting against aliens floating on the dome.

The shouts of the soldiers and the neighing of the horses seemed to penetrate the ages and echo in the ears of everyone.

The people in the square followed the shouts and seemed to have stepped into the thousand-year-old history of Athens, and experienced the birth of Athens to the present, a war of family and country, and a life-and-death struggle.

Looking at them, they seem to merge with the figures of a thousand years ago.

Prosperity and decline, glory and loneliness, Athens has experienced thousands of years of ups and downs.

Victorious in the war, they followed the Athenians a thousand years ago, under the Acropolis, chanting:

"Athens, Athens!"

Losing the war, they followed the Athenians thousands of years ago, in the ruined battlefield, whispering:

"Athens, Athens!"

A thousand years ago, it was called Athens.

A thousand years later, it took its name Athens.

All the people in the square, their eyes were red, and their expressions were excited, and all men, women, and children, all stood up at this moment and shouted in unison:

"Athens!"

Countless voices converged, and at this moment, it seemed to have the power to penetrate the heavens and the earth.

Here, it's Athens!
