Chapter 3: Onogne
Losing the sense of oppression from the three goddesses, Xia Lian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and continued to ask at the voice in his heart.
"Now.... Can we talk? ”
"This is your trial, and I won't help you in any way."
"Of course, I'm not asking you to help me, but since you're wise enough to communicate with me, that means you're in charge of giving me some information, aren't you?"
The voice was silent for a moment, then asked.
"What do you want to know?"
What do you mean by this final ending? Is Paris alive? Or did Troy not perish? ”
"There is no set answer."
"In other words, as long as it's better than the original ending, it's fine, right?"
"The final outcome will determine the final reward."
"And what if I die in this world?"
"You will be reincarnated."
"If you provoke the gods and die, will the soul be taken away and sent to hell to be tortured?"
"No, it won't."
"What if I make it alive?"
"After the mission is completed, you will be reincarnated."
"That is, whether I make the most correct choice or not, I will enter reincarnation, the difference is the unknown reward received by the different endings." Xia Lian whispered thoughtfully, "So.... It is only necessary to consider obtaining the optimal solution. ”
"Let me ask one last question, is my every move now under the gaze of those three goddesses?"
It was the voice that fell silent again.
"It doesn't matter, just knowing this doesn't help much for this almost unsolvable problem, does it?"
"Even the gods can't be omniscient and omnipotent, and the attention of the three of them can't be on you all the time." The voice continued, "But everything you do may be known to Zeus. ”
"Then I see."
After speaking, Xia Lian raised his head, and on the grass not far away, a beautiful woman like a hibiscus out of the water was walking towards this side.
In the blink of an eye, she came to Xia Lian's side, her brows furrowed slightly, and there was a little worry in her eyes.
"Paris, have you made your choice?"
"Nope." Xia Lian said, "I dragged on for three days, but after three days, I definitely need to give an answer." ”
"You...... Didn't choose Aphrodite? The woman said in some surprise.
"Nope." Xia Lian said.
The woman breathed a sigh of relief, and then whispered, "That's good..... That's good...."
Xia Lian looked at the woman, he didn't inherit Paris's memory, so he had no impression of who this woman was, but.... He had a guess.
"Onogne, who do you think I should choose?"
"Pick Athena." Onone said, "She will protect you." ”
Xia Lian nodded silently, which was similar to his original thoughts.
The man in front of him is supposed to be Paris's wife, the daughter of the river god, a narcissus, with whom he fell in love at first sight and had a son while living in Mount Ed.
When Paris judged the three goddesses to be the most beautiful, Onone was abandoned because Aphrodite promised him to give him the most beautiful woman in the world as his wife.
She had a knack for prophecy, so he knew what was going to happen to Paris, and tried to persuade her husband not to abandon him, but it was in vain.
The fall of Troy is predestined by fate, so no matter what Xia Lian chooses, the final outcome may not change.
Xia Lian didn't feel that he could rebel against fate.
But he may be able to change the process.....
The third goddess had just returned at the moment, and obviously he would not be so anxious to start observing his every move, but he couldn't move too much.
So, Onone might be able to do him a great favor.
Thinking about it, Xia Lian spoke: "Onone, can you see Hercules?" ”
"The Hercules?" Onone asked.
Xia Lian nodded.
"He's always stationed at the entrance to Olympus." "It should be visible." ”
She looked at Xia Lian, "What do you want to do?" ”
"Help me to find Him, and I'll write a letter, and you will give it to Him, and bring me what I have entrusted Him to bring."
Onone looked at Xia Lian with some confusion, "What is it?" ”
"You'll know." Xia Lian looked at Honorne's beautiful face and said seriously, "Do you believe me? ”
Onone looked into his eyes a little distracted, and then she nodded.
Xia Lian quickly wrote the letter, and handed it to his cheap wife along with the golden apple, and watched her stay away from the land.
The simple thing that Charlen entrusted to Hercules was to ask him to help him go to the golden apple orchard and bring back two more golden apples, and by the way, help him find a craftsman to carve the golden apples with the same words as the golden apple.
In a sense, all three apples are genuine, but they are no longer unique.
Hercules is the guy in the world who is most likely to help Charian enter the Golden Apple Orchard and steal the Golden Apple.
The reason for wanting to move him is very simple, everyone who has read the story about Hercules knows that Hercules's family was ruined, he was a slave for so many years, and he suffered so much.
Xia Liancai didn't believe that Hercules could really laugh and have a grudge with Hera, and how could he let go of such an opportunity to take revenge on Hera.
Of course, just stealing the golden apple will not achieve Xia Lian's goal, the most important thing is how to engrave the two golden apples with exactly the same characters, and forge the three to the point that they are exactly the same enough to deceive the gods.
There were only a handful of such skilled craftsmen in the Greek world, and the best candidate in Charlen's mind was Hephaestus, the god of fire, the god of fire, the god of forging, masonry, and the art of carving.
Although he was the son of Hera, he was abandoned by Hera from an early age because he was too ugly.
Even though he became a god in Olympus, Hera still did not wait to see Hera due to his previous revenge on Hera, and in terms of motives, it was possible to help Charian achieve this plan.
Hercules is Hercules, but he does not only use brute force, perhaps not as wise as Odysseus, but he still has good wisdom, and Charlian believes that he can convince the god of fire.
Of course, he is still not absolutely sure, because it is not for him to convince himself, so the waiting time is always difficult.
As darkness enveloped the heavens, Onogne's figure returned, her eyes evidently tinged with a hint of panic.
"What the hell are you going to do? The fate of fooling the great god is not something that can be solved by death!? ”
Xia Lian didn't answer, but asked directly: "Hercules agreed?" Or rather.... Did He succeed? ”
Onone looked around, and after not feeling the peep of divine power, she silently took out three golden apples from her body and handed them to Xia Lian.
It has been engraved with characters that are exactly the same as the golden apple.
