Stray Chapter 30: Trinity

"The constellation is not just a "firewall" specially built by the gods after the betrayal caused by the giant Typhon to prevent invasion from the outside world..."

Located on an isolated island outside the normal timeline, the magician explained meaningfully.

“It’s even more so, Zeus’s internal repression, the “antivirus software” used to deal with the blood-borne curse of the Greek gods, in order to nip all the factors that could threaten him in the bud. "

"Is it a measure used to suppress the fourth generation of gods and prevent them from growing up?"

Artoria nodded thoughtfully, "If it was a mortal dynasty, doing so would be tantamount to taking the path of death, but for the immortal gods, the necessity of inheriting the lineage and the fresh blood is a false proposition.”

"Exactly. After all, for them, how to make their country permanent is the key. Look at the **** that happened in three generations, and you should know what their nature is like. ." Xia Ran commented casually.

To put it mildly, the beauty of Greek mythology lies in the fact that the gods still have destiny and are still trapped by love, and there are also people's emotions and six desires. .

The difference between God and man is only that the former has eternal life and the latter has birth, old age, sickness and death.

Well, this is a nicer way of saying it. The more straightforward translation means that they are a group of human beings with empty power...not all of them. No member is truly noble with "divine". There is, but this proportion is relatively too small.

Just as Cronus defeated his father, but instead of learning his father's lesson, he chose a more crude solution.

The same is true of Zeus at the beginning. After all, he is not much better than Cronus, and he is more obsessed with power and desire than the latter. From a certain point of view, this is also a proof of blood inheritance. , it can be said that the family does not enter the house.

"Uranus, the lord of the sky, hates all his children. He said that these seedlings are desperately growing into evil, and sooner or later they will be punished. Now it seems that maybe at that time, everything was already there. The conclusion is reached."

The magician said calmly

“Gaia and his children couldn’t bear his brutal rule, so he chose to overthrow it. And because he couldn’t bear his father’s brutal rule, he chose to rise up and resist, but he changed his body later and became a more brutal rulers."

And because he was afraid of repeating the same mistakes and worried that he would be overthrown by one of his children in the future, just like the prophecy of Uranus, Kronos chose an extremely cruel suppression, that is, directly eating his own children , every time a new offspring is born, he directly swallows one.

Obviously, he chose to resist because he couldn't stand the brutality of the ruler...

But if you become the ruler, it will be fine, and the brutal rule will become a matter of course...

And it is absolutely impossible to allow someone to resist him in the future, even at the cost of more vicious suppression, and can kill his own descendants. In this point, Kronos is indeed better than Urano. S was much more tyrannical.

Zeus is also rotten. He was born in fear and trembling. He managed to escape the catastrophe and survived. He was not like his brothers and sisters, who were swallowed by the King of Titans just after birth. After He finally grew up, he was determined to overthrow the brutal rule of Cronus.

There is no specific list of this process, and there is really nothing to say. Anyway, as long as you know that Zeus succeeded in the end, he became the king of the gods who now leads the third generation of gods.

And what did he do?

That's right, just like his father, he used the same method and was afraid of the reincarnation of the blood source curse. In order to defend his absolute power, he chose to directly eat the descendants that could threaten him. one.

It is a perfect vicious circle. The victims of each generation have accepted the logic of the perpetrator. After successfully overthrowing the previous generation, they will do the same vicious and brutal things as a matter of course.

It's basically the same thing, every generation of the Greek pantheon is getting worse.

Even if there are **** and tragic examples as a lesson from the past, I have never thought of changing, but only brutally suppressed and maintained my absolute power with brutal rule.

"Although Athena later split his head and escaped from his body, Metis, the original goddess of wisdom, and Poros, the **** of creation and chance, who was predicted to have the throne of the gods, But it didn't appear again, only Athena came out by herself."

The magician knows all the secrets and the unknowable, if he has a point, so something may have been hidden from Zeus and others, but not from his eyes.

"But it was precisely because of Athena's resistance that Zeus changed his simple and rude method and decided to change his way of thinking. He probably thought that swallowing the offspring directly would be easy to indigestion. said, and not enough insurance..."

That's what Cronus did, after all, and ended up overturning because of an exception, and that exception was Zeus himself.

So, Zeus, who was familiar and skilled in this, after Athena almost repeated what she had done, she also used her brain more or less, thinking that it was necessary to make certain changes.

And under the circumstance that it is absolutely impossible to overthrow the curse of the first generation of the primordial king of the gods, what can he do? The simplest and most effective way to cure the root cause is to manage your own desires...

Of course, this is absolutely impossible, He is the embodiment of desire.

So Zeus would rather die than do this. If he needs to restrain his desires and can't vent freely everywhere, then what fun is there in God's life? He maintains his absolute power in order to indulge his own desires and enjoyment, and cannot put the cart before the horse.

So he decided to make the grown descendants such as Athena and Apollo become the twelve main gods of Olympus, with the golden seat of Mount Olympus under his direct supervision.

At the same time, with the help of the plan to promote the twelve constellations, the bloodlines of those descendants who were born later and did not have time to grow up were suppressed, and they were strictly guarded.

"Even if Uranus, as the half of the bloodline that gave birth to the entire Protoss, personally planted a curse on the bloodlines of the gods, there is a limit in the final analysis, it is impossible for a demigod to have the ability to kill The highest peak and most powerful named person in the infinite world, how many important realms are there in the middle..."

Xia Ran said with a smile: "So Zeus' method is indeed more perfect than his old father. Those who have grown up to be able to resist him are always under his supervision, and the rest have no time to grow up. those who are, He will not give them another chance to grow."

"They are born demigods, but they will stop there. They will have the strength to live well, and they will be assigned a so-called glorious destiny when Zeus remembers his cheap children. But it is not allowed to grow up and become a true divine step into the infinite world."

There is no other reason.

If they are always demigods, then they will never be able to pose a threat to Zeus, even if they have special attacks against Dad, it is useless, the base panel is too low, and the attack coefficient cannot be multiplied.

Artoria listened, her expression somewhat pitiful:

"So obviously blessed by nature and born with such rich conditions, but you will never be able to take that step and become the protagonist of your own destiny, but set off the background of other legends?"

Sounds beautiful, never worry about the rest of my life, and can always live full of glory. But in fact, their father simply broke their wings and raised them as pigs.

"It's basically the same thing, but now that the twelve constellations no longer exist, the corresponding firewall of laws has also disappeared, and they will naturally not be suppressed any more."

The magician looked at the battlefield and stood up

"Okay, let's get ready, this muddy water is coming to an end."

"Master, who do you think will be the final winner?" The girl nodded, and then asked slightly curiously.

"Athena."

Xia Ran said the name without thinking.

"Huh?" Artoria raised her eyebrows slightly and looked at him suspiciously, "You... are you going to support this goddess of wisdom? When did you hook up?"

Xia Ran turned to look at her, and frowned in confusion: "What is hooking up? It's too rude to use it? And Athena and I haven't reached any secret agreement, so don't think about it, okay? ."

“…”

“…”

The girl didn't speak, just stared straight at him with her emerald green eyes wide open.

The magician noticed something was wrong. Since when did his trust in Arturia become so unconvincing?

He coughed lightly and said seriously: "It really doesn't matter, if it wasn't for Medea, I wouldn't want to go into this muddy water. It's actually a bit risky to do this, if I think about it again. Directly intervene in deciding the ownership of the seat of God King, do you really have no temper when you are Chronos?"

"Then why are you so sure that it's Athena and not someone else?" Arturia thought for a while and felt that it was the same, but it still didn't solve the doubts in her heart.

She stared at her master: "Compared with those strong competitors, does Athena have any advantages?"

Apollo and Artemis, the twin gods, were the children of Zeus and Leto, the eldest of all Zeus' children.

And then there is Ares, although this **** of war, mutiny, killing and riot is not the eldest son, but his mother is Hera, the queen of heaven, but he is the proper son, more justifiable than the Apollo brothers and sisters.

There is also Dionysus, in addition to Athena's unborn brother Poros, Dionysus is the second son of Zeus who is predicted to be the god-king, with the personality of the god-king, and the most important That is, He lives to this day.

What does Athena have compared to them?

Empty has the name of the goddess of wisdom, but she has no support. Even her mother Metis died in the womb of Zeus. When Zeus attacked just now, it is estimated that she was the last on the kill list.

It's the least threatening one...

Is it because the snipe and clam compete, the fisherman wins? Precisely because it was the most inconspicuous, everyone ignored the presence of this goddess. As a result, in the end of the struggle, either all the jade and stone were destroyed, or both were lost, and no one benefited.

So in the end, it was Athena who easily picked it up?

Artoria thought quickly, and after thinking about it, she could only think of such a most reasonable explanation.

"No, you're only half right." Xia Ran shook her head, "Athena is indeed a low threat in the minds of all competitors and is easy to be ignored in the past, but not It means that this goddess has no trump cards and can only rely on luck."

"Strictly speaking, Athena is actually the most confident and qualified seed among all the competitors, whether it is Apollo, Ares or Dionysus, maybe they all add up You may not win the cards in the hands of this goddess."

"Obviously he has the most trump cards, and he should have been the most vigilant and the one that should be excluded in advance, but he hides it so well, but he is ignored by everyone and feels that he can be dealt with at the end. the problem..."

Speaking of this, the magician paused for a while and said meaningfully: "How high do you think this goddess has a chance of winning?"

Nine percent? Or ten percent?

……

……

"Nizi! Nizi! I shouldn't have let you live in the first place!"

The eyes seemed to burst into flames, and Zeus, who was extremely angry, was wrapped in terrifying thunder, like a luminous **** burning in the universe, illuminating every inch of the dark void.

His aura rose wildly, reaching a whole new height in a short period of time, as if he was burning his life for brilliance. In fact, this is indeed the case. Although as a god, there is no concept of lifespan at all, but such an overdraft...

Well, even if Zeus survived this time, he would have to fall into a long slumber to recover. It can be said that he has basically recognized the reality and no longer has any delusions.

Probably knew that the situation was over, so hysterically chose the last madness.

In the face of Zeus like this, the King of Titans, who dared to fight and fight before, silently chose to retreat and join the other Titans... After all, all fools know now that this lunatic is going all out now, who is it? Want to be the unlucky **** dragged by the other party at the last minute?

Anyway, according to the contract, what they have to do has been completed, and the rest is the problem of these juniors.

Fight, fight, and finally kill each other cleanly...

"You don't want us to survive now!" Dionysus, covered in blood, laughed loudly and met him head-on without fear. He had just been hit hard by Zeus' sudden sneak attack, which completely inspired cruelty. irritable nature.

"Get out of the way! This idiot's head is mine!"

Aris did not show weakness, and followed closely behind, the laughter resounded in all the time lines, expressing his victory and determination to fight for the glory and determination to kill the old father.

When the gods of Olympus were in chaos in an instant, when the melee started, the goddess with the olive crown backed away abnormally, and the divine radiance in her bright eyes lit up little by little. Growing, it seemed to overflow.

Two distinct auras appeared on him, intertwined and entangled, resonating with joy, and infinitely climbing and sublimating.

The rays of light are getting brighter and hotter, expanding and spreading in the void, like a round of sun rising, getting bigger and bigger, and finally bursting out suddenly, sweeping through hundreds of millions of stars, covering the entire fragmented Origin Universe.

The brilliance of divinity pervades everything, shines on Qianshou, and shines on the earth.

At the same time, everyone's movements were frozen for a moment, and they looked at them subconsciously.

Why the primordial **** Metis couldn't escape, and why did Poros, the god-king after Zeus predicted, couldn't escape, but Athena, who was relatively ordinary, was able to escape from Zeus' belly Woolen cloth?

That's the Trinity of Persons

At this moment, the long-standing disguise is finally torn apart.

Just as Athena is known for her wisdom, this is a gamble that began countless epochs, and that has been doomed to victory since countless epochs.

…………

Perhaps at the same time.

The magician who was watching everything on the battlefield with interest, his face changed slightly,

Because in the unknowable chaos, the long dragon body circled and moved.

The great **** with a human head, a bull head and a lion head opened his eyes, yawned lazily, looked in his direction casually, and spit out syllables softly:

"Boring."
