Chapter 133: Change of Authority, God-King Zeus
The second generation of Olympus gods is much worse than the first generation in terms of authority and character, but it is more refined and stable in body and soul. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
After defeating the god of the sky, Ouranos, the second god-king imprisoned him in the abyss with his mother Gaiadu, who helped him take the throne, and was tortured daily by the evil god Tartarus, in addition to the aftermath of the gradual development of the Olympian god line: "Every descendant of his god-king bloodline is born with some kind of authority, and is more refined and stable in body and soul."
This frightened the usurper, Kronos, and in order to prevent the same thing from happening to him again, he instructed his wife, the goddess Rhea, who ruled the passage of time, to bring the child he gave birth to him, and he would not hesitate to devour his own child. Whenever she saw that her own child had suffered such a tragic fate just after birth, Rhea felt very sad and afraid.
After Kronus devoured the five children of Hestia, Demeter, Hera, Hades and Poseidon. Rhea welcomed her sixth child. Rhea, because of her natural motherhood, is unwilling to lose this soon-to-be-born son. She chose to secretly go to the abyss to seek the advice of her parents, Ouranos and Gaia, but where could she hear any advice in favor of Kronos? Because of the dispute over power, the first and second gods have long developed an inextricable hatred.
Rhea fled to Crete overnight and gave birth to her youngest son, Zeus, in a deep cave on the island. In order to prevent misfortune from befalling this son, Rhea hid Zeus in the depths of the cave and wrapped a stone of the shape and size of a baby in cloth to act as his son. Finally, when Kronos saw the package in Rhea's arms, he did not realize that his wife was cheating on him, and devoured it without hesitation.
Zeus earned precious time to grow up, and under the dual care of fate and blood, the young Zeus grew up to be a strong and handsome god, possessing and fully wielding the authority of clouds, rain and thunder.
When he found out about his origins, he was furious and felt sorry for the fate of his brother and sister, and he decided to rebel against his father and overthrow the rule of Kronos, the ruler of the world. He came to the Celestial Realm and forced Kronus to spit out five of his children who had been devoured, so that they could see the light of day again.
These children, swallowed by Cronos, are gods of beauty, light, and happiness: Hera with the power of marriage and procreation, Poseidon with the power of the waves, Hades with the power of death, and Demeter with the power of life.
As soon as they returned to earth, they teamed up with Zeus to wage a war against the Titans, represented by Kronos, a war between the gods that was both brutal and protracted.
Zeus and his brothers and sisters perched high on Mount Olympus, commanding off the fierce attacks of the Titans again and again, of course. Not all of the Titans were hostile to them, and several Titans, such as the ocean god Okeanos and his daughter Styx, allied themselves against Kronos' rule.
But for the three generations of gods, this war is still very difficult, and their opponents, the Titans, are very powerful and ferocious. Even if the authority held by each person cannot be used perfectly at all, and even the authority is mutilated, their physical bodies have reached the limit of strength, and even the space can be broken with all their strength, so the three generations of gods are often seriously injured.
However, Zeus was not at a complete disadvantage, because Gaia ordered the one-eyed giants to come to Zeus's aid, and they created the artifacts "Thunder Shield" and "Lightning Throwing Spear" for him to bless Zeus's combat power several times, so the younger Zeus was even able to defeat Kronus, who held the creative power and destructive power of time in the second generation of god kings. (Thunder and lightning with a speed approximate to the speed of light cannot be stopped or accelerated by Kronos's force of time, the principle comes from Einstein's theory of relativity?)
When the war lasted for the tenth year, the two sides were still anxious, in a state of equal strength, and it was difficult to tell the winner. Eventually, Zeus released the hundred-armed giants sleeping underground and asked them to help him in battle. These tall, ferocious, terrifying, hundred-armed giants roared out of the ground and into battle. As soon as they stretched out their hands, they could break off entire rocks from the mountain. Even if you are far away from the Titans, you can easily throw it.
Whenever the Titans rushed towards Mount Olympus, hundreds of boulders would roll down and smash at them. Zeus threw fire-blazing lightning bolts, deafening thunderbolts of the earth groaned, the sky roared, everything in the world trembled, and even Tartarus, who was cruel and cruel in hell, could not help but tremble. A raging fire burned the sky red, and the boundless sea boiled, and the whole world was filled with thick smoke and scorching stench, and the whole place was scorched black, and there was no intact land.
Under such an offensive, even the mighty Titans felt exhausted, and finally their will finally wavered and admitted defeat. The gods of Olympus shackled them heavily and pushed them into the deepest part of hell, where Tartarus dwells.
The defeated Titans were thus imprisoned in eternal darkness, guarded by the Hundred-armed Giants and the Hundred-Eyed Giants at the bronze gates of Tartarus, where they were imprisoned. Under their watchful eye, none of the Titans' captives could escape Tartarus' cage. At this point, the era when the Titan God ruled the world was truly gone.
The gods of Olympus have finally ushered in peace and tranquility and won an era of their own. They finally don't have to worry about anyone rebelling against their rule, and they plan the future of the world in peace.
Zeus, the leader of the war and the most powerful of the gods, ruled the sky and became the king of the gods and gained authority over the sky. He sent Poseidon into the ocean, commanded him to take charge of the boundless waters and gain the authority of the sea, and gave Hades the right to control the souls of the dead, so that he could live happily in the underground kingdom and gain the authority of the netherworld, and the rich land, where all the source of life was jointly ruled by the three brothers, who shared the authority of creation.
But even though Kronos's three sons divided the world equally and ruled their own realms, everything seemed fair. But in fact the sky reigns above the other two, and Zeus is always looking high on his two brothers, and he is the immortal god who truly rules over all life, and all the jurisdiction in the world remains with him.
