"Prometheus, why do you have time to come to me?"

Athena looked at her friend in front of her and couldn't help but wonder. She knew very well that this friend of hers had been running around the land all these years, looking for a stable place for his newly created humanity. It can be said that the busiest god between heaven and earth is Prometheus, the son of Iapetus, the prophet.

Prometheus' hair was thicker and more messy than before, and his eyes were still so kind and resolute, but they were no longer so energetic, and seemed to be full of exhaustion.

"Athena, I'm here to ask for your help this time?" Prometheus was not polite and asked for help.

"What help?" Athena wondered, there was something that the wise man of the Titans couldn't solve, and she needed to run to her temple on earth for help.

Prometheus sighed, "I want to ask you to help me go to Hephaestus and ask for that flame." ”

Athena's heart moved, and although Prometheus didn't say which flame it was, she understood what the prophet was talking about.

After she helped Prometheus create man, because Prometheus rejected Zeus, she did not let the newborn human beings worship the gods immediately, buying time for human beings to learn to distinguish between right and wrong.

It is precisely for this reason that Zeus, the furious god-king, ordered Hephaestus, the god of fire, to extract the ability to make fire from all new human beings, and use his incomparably powerful divine power to turn it into a fire of law, and ordered him not to give this fire to humans.

The newborn humans who had lost the fire of the law were not only unable to make fire, but they did not even dare to touch the flames of the bronze and silver humans in the past, as if the flames were their natural enemies.

Prometheus spent twenty years connecting the bronze and silver humans who still existed in the world, bringing hundreds of thousands of new humans to all sides, opening cities and opening up lands, so that they could live and work in peace.

By now, there are no displaced people on the entire earth, and human beings have a stable living environment. But because there was no flame, these newborn humans could only eat the flesh raw, not cook.

Under the guidance of Demeter, the goddess of harvest and agriculture, they worked hard to grow food, but they could not enjoy its delicious taste, so they had to exchange it for food with powerful early humans.

The so-called early-born humans are only relative to the late-born humans created by Prometheus, and these humans occupy a dominant position in today's human world.

Prometheus, who has always regarded humans as his children, could see the human beings he created suffer this sin, so he decided to find a way to solve the matter.

He knew that Zeus was unhappy with him and didn't want to go to Mount Olympus to make fun of himself, so he thought of his friend, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and hoped that she could help him take out the flame of law.

Prometheus looked at his friend, and saw that she didn't say a word, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious as he walked slowly around in this empty and uninhabited temple.

Athena has always had a good impression of the new humans she helped create, but she knows very well that with her current strength, she must not fight her father, the god king Zeus. Otherwise, not only will she not be able to help humanity, but she will also be punished.

"It's hard for the two of us to do that. After thinking for a long time, the goddess of wisdom, who represented wisdom, finally made up her mind: "I have a way to get that fire, but I need to make a little sacrifice." ”

"Don't be afraid, as long as I can help humans get the ability to use fire, even if it is death, I will admit it. Prometheus listened to Athena's words, rejoiced, and then said nonchalantly.

Athena looked at him deeply, and then spoke her thoughts.

Prometheus listened and nodded, obviously very much in favor of what Athena said.

"Well, since you've agreed, we'll go our separate ways. You go to the goddess Hestia first, I'll go to Apollo for help, remember not to miss the time. ”

Before leaving, Athena repeatedly told Prometheus that if the timing was not right, his life would be in danger.

······

Hephaestus was very upset because his priest told him that Athena had been drinking with Apollo in his palace.

He was well aware that most of the gods liked to drink, and they often met up and drank for fun. But most of the gods definitely do not include Athena and Apollo.

Apollo and Athena, the children of Zeus, they are very similar, not to say that they look alike, but elsewhere. They are all good at fighting, no matter who they are, they have the strength to beat the current god of war, Ares, they all have various talents, and among the gods, there are few who can compare to them, and they are not heavy drinkers.

Hephaestus knew for a long time that Athena often went to Apollo's palace to fight him. But this time, she stayed in the palace of the god of light, and she stayed for more than ten days, which made Hephaestus jealous.

Hephaestus loved Athena, and he knew this ever since he split the head of Zeus and saw the golden goddess born.

For a long time, Hephaestus, who knew that he was ugly and extremely self-aware, did not dare to confess to Athena. Until one day, Prometheus, the son of Iapetus, the prophet, came to Olympus and created man with Athena.

After that time, Hephaestus gave up everything and followed Athena to the world. He confessed to Athena and even wanted to blaspheme himself in front of Athena.

Hephaestus, who was already mad at the time, blasphemed himself, but Athena had long since left, and the essence of his body was received by the earth, giving birth to the first king of the city of Athens, Eric Tonius.

Hephaestus, who was already conscious at the time, went away in shame and left his son behind, but Athena was told about it by Mother Earth. The goddess of wisdom, who knew what was going on, summoned the priests and asked them to raise Eriktonios.

Eric Tonios was also the son of the gods, he became a powerful demigod, and he became the first king of the Greek city next to the Sea of Love.

······

"Are you sure Hephaestus will be here?" asked Apollo as he looked at his sister in front of him, although Athena repeatedly asked to be called her sister, but in Apollo's heart, his sister was only Artemis.

"He'll come. ”

Athena picked up the wine glass in front of her and took a sip, feeling that the taste was average, and she really didn't understand why the gods were so obsessed with such things.

Sure enough, a moment later, one of the nine muses of Apollo's god, led Hephaestus over.

Hephaestus saw that Apollo and Athena were drinking and did nothing else, and he was half happy and half nervous, he didn't know what Athena meant.

"You're here, come and drink with me. Athena blushed her face, squinted, and threw a barrel of wine beside Hephaestus.

"Athena, you've drunk too much, so don't drink anymore. "I don't know what happened to Athena, but Hephaestus didn't drink much, and alcohol would seriously affect his blacksmithing business. He didn't want Athena to continue drinking, she looked like she was getting drunk.

"If you don't drink, what are you doing here. Hurry up, I don't welcome gods who don't drink here, Athena and I will continue to drink. Apollo also looked drunk and scolded Hephaestus.

The god of forging, who was helpless, could only open the wine barrel in front of him and began to drink with them. He didn't notice that when he started drinking, Apollo and Athena looked at each other with a slight joy in their eyes.

Hephaestus drank slowly, and then he felt that he had entered a state that he had never enjoyed before, as if he was drunk but not drunk, as if he was awake, everything around him was clear and blurred, and he vaguely heard Apollo cursing to the sun god Helios, saying that he would teach him a lesson.

Athena sneered beside her: "Helios can control the flames above the sun, although it is not the center of the sun, but it is not comparable to you." ”

Apollo said angrily, "I will definitely find a treasure that can subdue the flames of Helios, and then beat him severely." ”

"Where in this world can there be such a magical treasure. Athena said.

"Why not, I have something in my hand that can suppress the solar fire of Helios. Hephaestus, who was already half drunk, listened to Athena's words, took out a colorful flame from his own space, and then said to them: "This treasure of mine, but the fire of law extracted from the human body, although I don't know if it can work on the flames of Hestia, but it will definitely be able to restrain the flames of Helios." ”

"I don't believe it. Athena shook her head.

Hearing that the goddess in his heart didn't believe his words, Hephaestus hurriedly said: "How can you not believe it, it must be okay, this is what the God King himself said." ”

Athena still shook her head in disbelief and let Hephaestus explain on the side.

"Hey, can or can't, let me take it and fight Helios. Apollo said impatiently.

"Okay, here you go, take this fire of law with me and teach the sun god Helios. Hephaestus handed Apollo the colorful flame in his hand, and he couldn't wait to let Athena know how powerful the flame was.

Apollo took the flames, still drunk, and said loudly, "Go, let's go and teach Helios a lesson." ”

The three gods of Olympus, the sons of Zeus, walked on Mount Olympus, drunken steps, three steps to the palace of the sun god Helios.

Today Helios is resting in the palace, he has been driving the sun carriage in the air for more than ten days in a row, and it should be cloudy for a while. Suddenly, there was a cacophony outside the door, causing the usually serious sun god Helios to frown.

"Helios, get out of here, I'm going to teach you a good lesson today. ”

Helios walked out of the main hall and found Apollo looking drunk, sitting on his Sun carriage and yelling at him. Next to Apollo, there are Hephaestus, the god of forges, who fell to the ground drunk, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom.
