Chapter 25: Hercules

The meteor shower fell from the sky, with unimaginable attack and destructive power, carrying the great power of destroying everything, and its target was Robert, Duke of Normandy, and William, who is now in this world, and his identity at this time is the future Duke of Normandy, Prince William.

"This is the corrective force of fate, which allows the world to return to its original destiny trajectory."

When William saw Hermes, the river god who had long since lost his trace, he had mixed feelings in his heart, so he could only let out a cruel sentence that I would come back, and then jumped into the river.

Whether it is to return to the world of this time period in the past or to the world of the future time period, William vows to dig three feet into the ground to find the river god Hermes again.

As for the fairy in the forest, William sighed, unleashing such a powerful power, the sacrifice must also include her life, not to mention that there is also the power of fate in it to help her return the trajectory of the world to its original course.

"I'm leaving this world."

After William finished speaking, the attack of the meteor shower came as scheduled, and the gold of fate also shone brightly, and when the meteor shower was about to fall in the river, the time of the whole world seemed to stop, and with William's disappearance, the world was back on track.

Nothing has changed, nothing has changed.

In addition to the mother, a person's birth also needs a father, and even human beings were created in the hands of Prometheus and Athena, so they can go to other worlds of Greek mythology.

I hope the gods of that world can be more reliable than Hermes.

358 BC, the coast of the Kingdom of Macedonia in northern Greece

"You think you know the true story about him, but it's not, his father was Zeus, the king of the gods, and his mother Alcmene was a mortal, and she and Zeus united to give birth to him, half-human and half-god. Hera, the queen of Zeus, regarded the child as a disgrace to herself, and the child reminded her of her husband's infidelity, and the child's mother named him Hercules, which means the glory of Hera."

"The intention is understandable, but it doesn't make Hera give up, she wants to get rid of this bastard, so she lets the snake of Rao control dispatch."

"But this child is the child of Zeus, and even a viper with divine will and destiny cannot harm him, and when he grows up, the gods command him to complete twelve trials, twelve very dangerous tasks, and once all the tasks are completed, Hera will never trouble him again."

"He slashed the head of Hydra, and he slashed the boar of Mount Ormantos, but the most dangerous opponent was the Nemean lion, which was no ordinary lion, its fur was as hard as iron, and no weapon could pierce it, but even this beast was no match for the son of Zeus......

In the dim darkness of the sky, with no stars to be seen, a cold wind blowing, torches swaying in the wind, and a young man's voice recounts the great saga of a demigod hero, Hercules, only to be interrupted by a man holding a torch before he can finish speaking.

"You don't have to talk nonsense here."

"I'm telling the truth."

"The friend you're talking about doesn't actually exist."

A noisy sound sounded, followed by a burst of laughter, and a young man with his hands tied was hung high, and under him was a stick sharpened from wood, and as long as he could not support his strength, the stick made intimate contact with his buttocks, and the young man was now embarrassed, and near him was a group of robbers, and the young man fell into the den of robbers.

Before Alexander's Macedonian kingdom and the Roman Empire unified Greece, the degree of chaos in Greece during the city-state period can be compared to medieval Europe and the Spring and Autumn states of the East.

This is a chaotic time when endless wars can break out at any time, in addition to the large and small city-states, as well as the nobles of the city-states, as well as the heroes who are famous for their strength, and of course, the crazy and rampant thieves.

This is a time of chaos, but also a time of heroes.

"Whatever you think, he'll come, I warn you Griza, he hates pirates the most

。」

The young man made a threat, but it did not make the pirate feel the slightest fear and fear, what Hercules, the son of Zeus, this is simply nonsense. Z.br>

"Macedonia is a good place, there are many villages for us to plunder, we have decided not to go, so good luck."

The pirate leader Griza smiled a creepy smile on the youth, and then his men took torches and began to light the ropes that bound the youth, as long as the flames consumed the ropes, it meant that the youth was about to lose his life.

"It is true that the Nemean lions are invincible, but in the end they were solved by Hercules."

The young man did not show a panicked look, in his sight, a lion in the night was slowly walking forward, and as he walked in, the night fog began to dissipate, it was a strong man with a mace in his hand and a lion's scalp hat on his head.

"Even though swords, spears, and bows and arrows were useless, I defeated him with my bare hands...... "The strong man said in a hearty voice, and then added in a whisper that only he could hear, "Of course everyone said so."

When the robbers heard this, they saw the puppet man, and saw him walking in the night, and an indescribable sense of shock struck him, wearing a lion's skin like a real lion, and no one could ignore his pressure, especially the terrible son of Zeus who had left an indelible mark in the hearts of everyone in the telling of the story of youth.

This man is the hero who will complete the twelve trials, the son of Zeus, Hercules.

"There are forty-one of us, and you are only one." The bandit leader, Griza, used a simple math problem to give the robbers courage, and he gestured to his men with his eyes, and then five robbers headed for Hercules.

"Don't be ignorant of the times, the king here has given me a sum of gold, let me deal with you, whether it is to kill you, or to get out, I will have the money."

After Hercules finished speaking, he saw the five robbers rushing over, and just waved the mace in his hand and knocked all five robbers to the ground like bowling.

"He can beat five with one punch, do you really think you can defeat the son of Zeus?" The young man was fanning the flames proudly, and the huge difference in combat effectiveness made all the pirates present stunned.

They knew that maybe these five robbers were not the opponents of the other party, but they also knew that there were forty-one people on their side, as long as the five companions could entangle each other, they would soon be able to join the battlefield, who knew that in just a second, the five companions would be completely defeated by the other party.

"Rush me!" The leader of the robbers gritted his teeth, and then all the robbers charged.

It was a one-sided slaughter, Atalanta with a bow and arrow, Otolikos hiding in the shadows with a throwing knife, Amphia Thornus wielding a spear, and Titius with a dagger rushed out at once, accompanied by the fight of people on their backs, in a panicked sound of flight, Hercules's team won the final victory, and the robbers were either killed or fled.

"Uncle, save me, save me." The young man with his hands tied to the rope cried out for help, and the flames were about to consume the rope, and Hercules pushed his body away with his mace, causing it to fall to the ground safely.

Hercules was about to say something when he saw a little boy appear in the firelight, a child who looked to be seven years old and thought he was nine.

"You are the son of Zeus, Hercules!" The little boy called his name, a look of disappointment on his face.

"Yes, I am Hercules, and you are!" Hercules looked wary, and the appearance of a little boy in the robber's den on this big night was full of strangeness.

"I, if you ask me who I am, then I will tell you with great mercy that I am William, the son of Zeus, and the son of the goddess of youth, Heber."

The little boy looked at Hercules and said, Reporting one's own home, theoretically in the Greek tradition, whether it is a hero or an ordinary person, reporting one's own family is called by the father, but there is an exception, that is, if the mother's status is more prominent than the father's, then people go

In the past, they would ignore the patronymic and use the female pronoun directly.

For example, Achilles is the king of the human city-state of Thessaly, the son of the human hero Peleus and the goddess of the sea, Thetis, according to tradition, Achilles should be called the son of Peleus, but because Achilles's mother identity and status are too prominent, people often call him the son of Thetis, and the same is true of Aeneas, the protagonist of "Agneas", because his father is only a human hero, and his mother is the god of beauty Aphrodite, so he is often called the son of Aphrodite.

William did not want to admit that the man in front of him was his theoretical "father" Hercules, so he could only report himself by Heber's name when he reported his family.

"Iolaus, did this kid learn from you?" Ottoricus also saw the boy and said with a grin as he spoke.

Iolaus smiled helplessly when he saw the little boy, "Whose child are you, why didn't I see you just now?"

It was all his idea to exaggerate the legend of Hercules, so that people would become more and more convinced that Hercules was the son of Zeus, and the less they dared to fight him, relying on such a reputation, they completed many tasks centered on Hercules, and spread the great legend of Hercules' twelve exploits to all the Greek city-states, and finally convinced all the Greeks that Hercules was the son of Zeus, the hero of the half-man and half-god.

Legend has it that Hercules completed the Twelve Trials alone, and here, they were a team centered around Hercules.

This is the world of Son of Zeus: Hercules.

An ordinary mortal, exaggerating his deeds, fictionalizing legends, becoming a hero, and finally being considered by the world to be Hercules, the son of Zeus, in the admiration of countless Greeks, this demigod has become the only hero in mythology who has obtained the qualification of a god.
