The popularity of a series of myths and legends about Olympus is still quite high.

If nothing else, let's just say "Olympic Games", the full name is "Olympic Games", which originally refers to the worship of Zeus and the gods held in a place called Olympia in ancient Greece.

Even the "Torch" at the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games commemorates the mythical Prometheus stealing the fire from the sacred mountain to mankind.

The so-called "torch relay" and "Olympic torchbearer" are actually "role-playing" the process of Prometheus carrying the flame over and over again, thanking him for his mercy.

In addition to sports events, of course, there are also many influences in film and television works, not only Europe and the United States, which claim to be the orthodox inheritors of Greek civilization, but also Japan and China, where the animation industry is developed, and in many animation works, there is a shadow of Greek mythology.

Of course, the dissemination ability of these animation games is very strong, so that as the birthplace of oriental civilization, primary and junior high school students know the stories of various "saint warriors", and they also know the characters in various derivative Greek mythological games, but they don't even know anything about the historical figures and mythological characters of Huaxia itself.

Yanjing Daily once made a research report, randomly asked 300 primary and secondary school students, including "Xingtian", "Jingwei", "Kuafu" and other 20 Chinese legends, to know a few, the result is more than 3 legendary children, no more than 2%.

The most ridiculous and sad thing is that the children have heard the name of "Xingtian", but it is not the god of war in myths and legends, but the "Xingtian Armor" that appears in a copycat special effects drama.

Therefore, even in a place like China, which is relatively independent of Western civilization, the popularity of Greek mythology is also very large, and as soon as the news of the sudden increase of thousands of meters in height of Mount Olympus came over, the Internet immediately turned the sky, and all kinds of rumors swept the world like a volcanic eruption.

This is not the case in China, but even more so in Western countries.

Such drastic geological changes can no longer be described as "miracles", but can only be said to be "miracles", because in the vocabulary of human civilization, phenomena that exceed what science can explain are too ruthless, and they can only be temporarily attributed to "miracles".

As a "bankrupt state", some civil society organizations in Greece jumped to the top, searching everywhere for Greek mythological accounts and making all kinds of far-fetched interpretations, claiming that Greece was "the land that has regained the favor of the gods".

However, Greece is now a modern country, not ancient Greece, and if nothing else, religious beliefs are very different from what they used to be.

Today's Greece is a country with Orthodox Christianity as the state religion, and Orthodox Christianity is one of the three major denominations of Christianity alongside Catholicism and Protestantism, also known as Orthodoxy.

In other words, this is a country where the majority of its citizens believe in Christianity, and the citizens of this country are not actually the true descendants of the ancient Greek people - how else can it be said that only the Chinese civilization of the "four ancient countries" has been passed down in one line?

In an Orthodox country, is it not death for someone to jump out and claim that Greece has "regained the favor of the gods"?

Where are the gods? Where are the gods in this world but the great Lord?

So, after just two days of uproar, the civil society organizations in Greece all died down and disappeared silently.

Also, in this country, it is better for a scientist to jump out and force an explanation for the elevation of a mountain range, than for someone to say that it is a miracle performed by another god.

Otherwise, it is a great rebellion and heresy.

The situation in Greece is the most typical, and similar to it, there are many countries that consider themselves to be descendants of Greek civilization, but unfortunately most of these countries are dominated by Christianity.

So far, except for some really maverick new media, most of the traditional media have treated the news coldly, and a certain country has even sent academicians of the "Royal Academy of Sciences" to investigate the site, hoping to give a plausible scientific truth.

After all, they can say that "God created mankind and created science", but they can't say "God created Zeus and the gods", otherwise the fun will be really great.

The scientists of the Royal Academy of Sciences were destined not to find it, and they knew this when they saw Mount Olympus, which was slowly rising from the ground like spring shoots.

It took about 38 million years for the earth to shape Mount Everest, the highest peak on earth, and Mount Olympus actually took only half a day to reach an altitude of 8,000 meters!

Not to mention, according to the pictures sent back by satellites in space, the tall temple that stood on the top of the mountain at some point, and the golden rays that shimmered around the temple.

If they had to bite the bullet and give an explanation, they could only say that it was a mirage - fake, fake.

After a few more hours, Mount Olympus finally stopped "growing" and stopped at an altitude of 9,818 meters, nearly 1,000 meters above Mount Everest.

From this moment on, the throne of the world's highest peak will be changed.

............

After playing in New Zealand for a total of 3 days, Zhao Xu and his second daughter boarded the plane back to China.

Many of the passengers on the plane were talking about the big news about Mount Olympus, a world-famous mountain that is now attracting the attention of the world.

Of course, Jia Baobao's air tickets for Zhao Xu and the three of them were handled by Jia Baobao, so they took first class, and the flight attendant brought Zhao Xu the latest newspapers and publications.

Underneath the headlines, the most striking thing is a distant view of Mount Olympus today.

On the top of Mount Olympus, which is already the highest peak on earth, the magnificent palace of gold is like putting a crown on the mountain.

"Another secret realm has emerged?" Zhao Xu muttered, it's just that it's so high-profile, it's no longer a "secret realm", right?

Look at the plum blossom village, which no mortal knows;

Look at Jinbeizui Fishing Village, located on the edge of the international metropolis of Longcang City, but the world knows nothing about it;

Look at Taishan Mansion, no one knows about it.

What shines on Mount Olympus is the legendary "Greek Temple of Gods"?

It's been hidden before, and now it's not going to be hidden anymore?

Why?

The hidden reasons can be imagined, but the reasons for the high-profile "comeback" are difficult to guess.

A long time ago, Zhao Xu knew that there were many secret realms on the earth, but these secret realms seemed to abide by an unwritten unspoken rule - not to show themselves in front of ordinary mortals.

Now Olympus suddenly stands up and breaks the unspoken rules, does he want to be a bird?
