Chapter 25: The God King and the Earth Mother
Since the end of the banquet at Mount Kinabalu, 500 years have passed in a hurry under the twinkling sun.
Unlike the silence on the earth, in the starry sky, the aftermath of Ryan's battle with the sun god is still being staged.
Back in the stars, Hyperion fulfilled his vow to the River Styx. He handed over the sun to his eldest son, who was born for nearly a thousand years but still maintained a weak divine power of Helios.
So, for the first time in thousands of years, the sun, which had been hanging still in the sky, moved according to its trajectory. But to the surprise of many gods, the Great Day did not run as smoothly as they thought
Perhaps because his divine power was too low, or perhaps because of the uncooperation of another sun master, Helios could not run the sun freely without his father's assistance in the cold eyes of Hyppelion.
His strength was so weak that even a small distance to make the sun run would have exhausted him. To this end, he asked the god-king for help, but Kronos had little to do.
Hyperion didn't break his promise, he didn't intervene to hinder Helios, he just blended into the sun and became one with it.
This behavior increases the 'weight' of the celestial body. If Helios is a god of medium or higher power, he can still control the sun with ease. But because of his father's suppression in the past years, his strength can be called the bottom of the true gods.
The God-King was disappointed by this, he had many plans, such as secretly supporting Helios and continuing to rule it after five hundred years, and he knew that the other party would definitely agree. But what he never expected was that the other party would not be able to fulfill his priesthood.
In this way, the idea of Kronos winning without a fight was shattered. He had to be prepared to intervene in the starry sky with more direct means.
But what happened next disappointed Kronos again. About 200 years after the sun changed hands, endless light shone across the earth, and the Mother of Light finally entered the realm of powerful divine power. Seeing this, Kronos had no choice but to sigh that he was not with me at the time, and then put aside this idea for the time being.
In this case, when the five-hundred-year period had passed, Hyperion brutally imprisoned his eldest son on the surface of the sun, and then took over the great sun again. This time he learned wisely, and even though the sunrise and sunset were not his authority, he still took the initiative to move the celestial bodies to accomplish this act. With his divine powers, although it seems a little troublesome to make the sun move every day, it is not a difficulty.
However, because of this, the contradiction between the father and son of the sun god was completely made public.
In such an environment, one day, five hundred years later, the gods gathered on the shores of the East China Sea, the nameless retreat of Mother Earth.
It is here that they will create the first life on earth.
······
"Don't you give up?"
Near a stream in the East China Sea, Mother Earth holds an emerald green vase in her hand.
The gods are waiting in the distance, and only a few of the Titan gods have come to visit Mother Earth.
Many years have passed since the transposition of the God King. With the rise of the world's source power, the earth has increased, and the earth mother has also gained a lot of benefits.
Although she had not fully recovered from the injuries she had received, at a glance, she was no longer the old man she was, but a rich woman of about fifty or sixty years old.
Cronus and Themis had already been here once, and Mother Earth thought they had given up. But I didn't expect that this time not only did they come again, but they also brought more than half of the true gods of Kaos.
"Mother Goddess, we failed to create living beings because of the lack of souls. But now, the Lord of the Spirit Realm has promised to lend a hand. ”
Faced with Mother Earth's questioning, Kronos whispered.
He didn't really want to explain, if possible. Among the gods present, he was probably the only one who guessed the truth about Mother Earth's anger thousands of years ago.
Perhaps the original vase of life can create complete life, like plants, although they do not have a specific consciousness, but they are by no means completely absent, but that consciousness is very hazy and vague.
But now, thinking about his own plane-time origin, Kronos was ready for Mother Earth to be angry.
"Ryan?!"
As expected, hearing this familiar name, Gaia's face changed suddenly. The earth around her shook, as if in response to Mother Earth's anger, but then, without knowing what came to mind, she endured it again.
"Now that you already have his help, what are you still coming to me for?"
Although she didn't have a seizure, Mother Earth's expression was still visibly cold.
"As long as you have a soul, you can also create life with divine power, so why bother to borrow the [Life Vase]."
In the face of Mother Earth's rebuke, Kronos's expression remained unchanged. He was actually a little surprised, thinking that hearing Ryan's name would make Mother Earth react more violently.
But that's none of his business. As a primordial god, even the worst of the chaos, Earth Mother can often get some information that ordinary people don't know. Maybe I learned something from the Mother of the Night, so I didn't bother Ryan all the time.
Thinking of this, Kronos couldn't help but admire his wit again.
Like a fool like Hyperion, compare what to him to.
"Mother Goddess, the gods do not only intend to create a small amount of life, we plan to spread living beings all over the earth, and it is difficult to accomplish without the authority associated with [life]."
"And we also intend to create a special species modeled after the gods."
Raising his head slightly, although the remaining anger did not subside, Gaia was still intrigued by Kronos's words.
It is indeed interesting to imitate the species created by the gods.
"If you want, we can start making things around us." Seeing that Mother Earth was intrigued, Kronos continued: "You can also come and see our progress in your spare time, after all, you are more experienced than us in the field of creating life. ”
After thinking about it for a while, Mother Earth was finally moved by Kronos.
Not only because of that particular species, but also because it is a common idea of many gods. After the time of Ouranos, Gaia was already vaguely aware of the importance of power and power.
[Earth] is not good at fighting, and instead of showing force, it is better to show his status in other ways.
"Take it, after all, you're already a god-king, aren't you?"
Taking out the [Vial of Life], Mother Earth still stabbed Kronos. The God King didn't feel sorry for this, but took over this high-level artifact in the realm of life.
He knew that Mother Earth had always had a problem with him for not releasing the cyclops and hundred-armed giants, but Kronos still didn't plan to release them.
In fact, from the very beginning of the fight, Kronos did it on purpose. He knew that his refusal would not make the Earth Mother too hostile, but it was enough to make the only primordial god walking in the present world leave the mountain to express his dissatisfaction.
But Gaia's departure is exactly what Kronos wants. If his brothers were gone, but Mother Earth remained, and he didn't have enough strength, he really didn't know to whom Mount Odils should belong.
If you can't even fully control where you live, then this god king should be a little ridiculous.
Now that time has passed, Kronos has secured the throne, but he still does not want Gaia to return to live on Mount Kinabalu.
As his god, Rhea has always been with him. Since the last time he failed to secretly help Hyperion, the god of weather has also chosen to completely fall to Kronos. Today's Odils Mountain does not need a primordial god who does not obey the orders of the god-king.
"And the urging ...... of the world"
"Enhancing authority can indeed delay it, but as the god-king of Kaos, giving birth to a god is a responsibility that cannot be avoided after all."
His eyes were a little cold, and Kronos didn't know what Mother Earth would think of his plans in the future, but he didn't want to know either.
Whoever threatens his god-king position is his enemy.
The same is true for children, so is for brothers, and for earth mothers, it will be no exception.
