Chapter 122 Sister Ya is in C, she is still crazy in C! (6.6k no points, please vote for the monthly ticket)

Hestia is in charge of the family affairs of all people. The flame symbolizes her existence and is the guarantee of family continuity, stability, harmony and prosperity.

Therefore, her chastity represents the integrity and holiness of the family, and this process is completed by swearing on Zeus' hair, which symbolizes that Hestia transfers the unique family authority to Zeus.

Therefore, Zeus has the supreme family status in Olympus and the authority to manage all family affairs. He is a well-deserved father god and patriarch.

It was also from that moment that the previous generation's dispute over royal power was settled.

Both Hades, the god of the underworld, and Poseidon, the god of the sea, have lost the qualifications to truly participate in the competition.

Hearing this, Loen couldn't help but feel a little confused.

"Isn't this right? Hasn't Poseidon always been obsessed with the throne of Olympus and never stopped competing?"

“But he never won…”

Athena murmured meaningfully, looking towards the sea with a dim gaze.

Suddenly, Loen's heart was shocked, and he couldn't help but recall the history of the competition for theocracy with the Sea King.

Although Poseidon possesses vast marine resources and a clan of divine blood, his authority and power are strictly limited to the sea.

Therefore, his connection with the world is weak, and it is difficult to say which city he is the founder or patron saint of.

In the struggles with other gods for cities, he was mostly a loser: he was driven out of Aegina by Zeus, out of Naxos by Dionysus, and out of Delphi by Apollo; he was also a loser in the competition with Athena for the right to name Athens, and was driven out of Troezen by Athena; Argos in his hands was also taken away by Hera; for this, he brought down drought as revenge, and then turned the area into the sea. The kingdom of him and his descendants is the ocean. Even here, Zeus sank Atlantis to the bottom of the sea because his descendants were disrespectful to the gods...

After some recollection, Loen even felt a little terrified.

Poseidon obviously had a good hand, but he was defeated again and again, not only losing to Zeus, but also gradually being able to step on younger generations such as Athena and Apollo. It seemed that in this process, there was an invisible force that constantly interfered with the sea king's seizure of power.

——Fate and inevitability?

Loen was lost in thought, and for the first time realized how terrifying the power of that intangible and invisible regular force was.

"In fact, from the moment my aunt made the decision, Poseidon and Hades had already lost the possibility of competing with the Father God." Athena looked at the rolling waves on the sea with her hands behind her back, her voice turned low, "Because, their patriarchy has never been complete..."

"……?"

Hearing this, Loen couldn't hold back his curiosity and cast an inquiring look at Athena.

And today, Athena, who was touched by something, naturally gave an answer.

In fact, whether it is the twelve Titans of the previous generation or the six siblings of Zeus in Olympus, the number of male and female heirs of the prince of gods in each generation is an even number in pairs.

Because this constant follows the reproduction logic of the original life theocracy, it can better encourage them to combine in pairs, thereby smoothly continuing the pure bloodline.

But even if the number is right, it doesn't mean that the goddesses and gods will definitely follow fate and choose to pair up.

Among the six previous generation gods of Olympus, only Zeus and Hera completed a systematic combination.

Logically, Poseidon and Hades should also choose one of their sisters to be their wife and ally to check and balance each other.

But among the remaining two, the goddess of agriculture Demeter was first deceived by Zeus and lost her virginity to him.

Hestia flatly rejected Poseidon's courtship and swore to Zeus to remain chaste for the sake of her family.

In this way, Poseidon and Hades could not fulfill their destiny to continue the bloodline of the orthodox gods, and were kicked out invisibly.

As the eldest brother, Hades, who has no ambition, is content with the status quo and stays in the underworld honestly.

In return, Zeus decided to marry his and Demeter's daughter, the beautiful goddess of spring Persephone, to his brother.

——Hades failed to marry the goddess of agriculture Demeter and expand the power of the underworld to the earth, but he married a more beautiful and younger niece...

But unlike his elder brother, Poseidon, who owned the ocean, was unwilling to give up.

So, on the one hand, he proposed to Hestia, and on the other hand, he took advantage of the fact that the goddess of agriculture Demeter was out looking for a daughter and raped his sister, trying to pull her into his camp.

It was precisely because Zeus was afraid of the destiny of continuing the bloodline of the Gods that he not only did not stop it beforehand, but also did not pursue it afterwards.

However, this action completely angered Demeter, causing the disheartened goddess of agriculture to go into seclusion and rarely appear in public in Olympus.

Similarly, Hestia also spoke up for her sister, and became even more annoyed with Poseidon who would do anything for power, and she stood firmly on the side of Zeus.

As one side gained strength while the other lost strength, Poseidon, who was vaguely marginalized from the Olympus family, naturally could not compete with Zeus, the patriarch, alone.

Therefore, he continued to seek allies and began to propose to his nieces. For example, Athena received a love proposal from the uncle.

But such extremely crude techniques and obvious utilitarianism could not impress the goddesses of Olympus.

From then on, the Olympian goddesses gradually began to remain chaste, either voluntarily or forced to do so.

Among the twelve main gods, three of the six goddesses have sworn to protect their chastity. It is obviously impossible that all of them are voluntary.

Obviously, Zeus had always intended to marginalize his brother from the Olympian family of gods.

In the end, Poseidon had to settle for the second best and chose the sea fairy Amphitrite to be his queen. He became deeply bound to the ocean gods and attempted to use his sole authority over the ocean to fight against Zeus, the new generation of sky father who had authority over the entire world.

But the results of repeated defeats speak for themselves.

As the secrets of the Olympian gods were revealed layer by layer, Loen couldn't help but think deeply.

"So, Hestia's direct withdrawal not only helped His Majesty the God King a lot, but also completely consolidated his family privileges? Moreover, just in case, the combination of two of the twelve main gods was also invisibly prohibited?"

Loen paused, his mind suddenly cleared, and he glanced in the direction of the camp outside the dense forest.

"That is to say, from the very beginning, Apollo had no chance at all! If he dared to do anything wrong, His Majesty the Divine King would personally punish him without our help!"

Athena nodded and gave Lorne an unpleasant look.

"Now you understand, don't you? You are worrying about my aunt in vain. As long as she behaves herself and doesn't do anything wrong, no one can touch her."

Lorne felt completely relieved when he thought of Hestia's lofty status and her outrageous privilege of distributing public sacrifices and enjoying a separate share of them.

At the same time, a faint sense of loss arose in his heart.

I didn't expect that the one that seemed to be the easiest to deceive was actually the kind that you can only look at but not eat...

But then, Loen remembered another contradiction, frowned and asked a question.

"Wait, what about Hephaestus and Eros? As the twelve main gods, aren't they also combined?"

"Yes, Aphrodite's 'husbands' thought so too..."

As she spoke, Athena raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of teasing in her eyes.

Hearing this meaningful answer, Loen was suddenly at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

No wonder Zeus tried so hard to promote this marriage. It turned out that it was just a marriage of convenience, allowing the lustful Aphrodite to marry the son who was least likely to inherit the throne.

After all, the lame, ugly god of fire, who was not loved by his mother Hera, had lost the opportunity to seize power from the very beginning. Even if he combined with Aphrodite, he would not pose any threat.

etc……

Suddenly, the playful look in Luo En's eyes slightly condensed, and his mind suddenly thought of the other person who was ignored.

Hephaestus, the god of love's official husband, was out of the question, but what about Ares, her resident lover?

In subsequent Roman mythology, this god of hosts, who was renamed Mars, completely rose to power.

I'm afraid even the God King, who is extremely wise, could not have predicted this?

Wow, the plot of Olympus Prime's eight o'clock drama is getting more and more interesting.

While applauding his great-grandfather and brother's forbearance, Loen looked up at Athena in front of him and couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"How do you know all this?"

"Prometheus told me himself..."

Athena spoke softly, uttering a name that Lorne had not expected.

As if seeing the surprise on that face, the goddess of wisdom waved her hand and responded calmly.

"Strictly speaking, this is not a big secret. The twelve Titans of the previous generation were defeated one by one by Olympus because they failed to maintain the authority of their family line."

Like Olympus today, the Twelve Titans were composed of male and female pairs.

Among them, six male gods:

Oceanus, god of rivers and ocean currents,

Koeus, the god of the heavens,

Crius, the god of weather,

Hyperion, the god of light,

Iapetus, god of the soul and speech,

Kronos, the god of the sky and harvest...

And the corresponding six goddesses:

Theia, goddess of sight and light,

Rhea, goddess of fertility and time,

Themis, goddess of law and justice,

Mnemosyne, goddess of memory, language, and writing,

Phoebe, goddess of the moon,

Thesis, goddess of the sea...

However, they failed to successfully complete the corresponding combination, which laid the seeds for the collapse of the theocracy system of Mount Othrys.

The Olympian gods of that time realized this and seized the opportunity. Zeus used his beauty to seduce the unmarried goddess of justice Themis and goddess of memory Mnemosyne, and first brought these two powerful Titan goddesses into his camp.

Afterwards, Zeus, having tasted success, repeated the same trick.

Coeus, the god of the celestial bodies, and Phoebe, the goddess of prophecy, had two daughters whom they loved very much.

One is Leto, the goddess of nurturing, and the other is Astraea, the goddess of shooting stars.

If he succeeds in hooking up with one, the God of Celestial Bodies and the Goddess of Prophecy should also turn to support this son-in-law to take the position.

At first, he pursued the meteor goddess Astraea, but she avoided him.

In the end, it was Leto, the goddess of nursing, who was the elder sister, who was deceived by Zeus's sweet words and combined with him, and bound her parents to the chariot of Olympus.

Thus, four Titans stood on the side of Olympus.

Before this, in order to rescue his five brothers and sisters who were swallowed by his father Cronus, Zeus had already hooked up with Metis, the original goddess of wisdom and the beloved daughter of Oceanus, the god of rivers and oceans, and Thesis, the goddess of the sea.

It was also through Metis' wisdom and the magic potion she prepared that Hestia, Hades, Hera, Demeter, Poseidon and other five people were able to break free from the dark prison and become Zeus's helpers in establishing a new order.

In this way, just by taking advantage of the loophole that the twelve Titans did not follow the combination of life, Zeus split one third of the Titans with almost no effort.

"Who came up with such a brilliant idea?"

As Loen listened to the unknown secrets of the Titan War, he couldn't help but ask, with a subtle expression that made it hard to tell whether he wanted to praise or ridicule.

At that time, Metis was still Zeus's legitimate queen. Who would dare to have an affair with Zeus in front of the goddess of wisdom?

Aren’t you afraid that Metis will free up his hands later and beat that guy to death?

You know, according to Circe's story, the original goddess of wisdom played a vital role in the initial establishment of Olympus.

At first, Olympus lacked weapons, divine power, and supporters, so it always lost in battles.

Under the guidance of Metis, Zeus went to visit the Mother Goddess of the Earth and was ordered to go to the abyss of Tartarus filled with the law of death.

Imprisoned inside are three Cyclops who are good at creating magical weapons and magnificent buildings, as well as three hundred-armed giants who are extremely powerful and good at fighting.

They were originally ancient Titan gods created by Gaia, the mother earth, and their power was quite terrifying.

However, Uranus, the father god who had a strong desire for control and was worried that his status would be challenged, imprisoned him in the abyss of Tartarus on the grounds of "making noise" and guarded him by the giant dragon Camper.

Zeus, as the chosen one, did not disappoint. He led his two brothers to defeat the evil dragon, and personally freed the Cyclops and the Hecatonchus, allowing them to live on the surface.

So, the three Cyclops forged the Thunder Scepter to control thunder and the Aegis Shield to absorb and rebound damage for Zeus inside Mount Etna.

At the same time, they also forged a trident for Poseidon to control the ocean and created an invisible helmet for Hades.

The rest of the gods also successively obtained weapons that greatly enhanced their divine power. With the addition of the hundred-armed giant, their overall strength gradually narrowed the gap with those of the older generation of Titan gods.

Because Zeus was the benefactor who personally liberated the three Cyclops and the three Hecatonchus.

In addition, after they worked together to defeat the dragon Kampa, Hades and Poseidon were left outside the prison gate, and Zeus went ahead to explore the way on the grounds of danger.

As a result, these six monsters of their grandfather's generation signed a contract with the new God-King and obeyed his orders.

In this way, Zeus had three main god-level bodyguards and also controlled the weapon craftsmen who could control the gods. His leadership position became increasingly unshakable.

This strategy of strengthening the trunk and weakening the branches was naturally the work of Metis.

In addition, the five siblings were released from Kronos' belly because of this original goddess of wisdom. Therefore, even though Poseidon and Hades were unhappy, they finally had to accept it.

In this way, Olympus, relying on the newly joined three Cyclops and three Hecatonchus, as well as the wisdom of Metis, was able to gain a firm foothold in the initial Titan war and grow stronger step by step.

During this process, the goddess of wisdom did not stop. She secretly launched various strategies in the early stage to continuously divide and weaken the power of the twelve Titans.

First of all, Oceanus, the god of rivers and ocean currents, and Thesis, the goddess of the sea, created 6,000 rivers and springs, making the source of water of life surround the world.

But their favorite was their own daughter Metis.

The queen of gods personally took the initiative and easily persuaded her parents to stand on the side of her son-in-law Zeus. She also brought her five most outstanding brothers and sisters to help.

Secondly, Metis promised the land in the east of the Greek world to the god of light and the goddess of light, to ensure that their descendants, the gods of the sun, moon and dawn, would not be engulfed in war and would enjoy peace.

The two of them withdrew from the battle and returned to the East of the world to raise their children.

In addition, Rhea, the previous queen of gods, who was imprisoned by Kronos for releasing her children, secretly stated that she would not participate in the conquest of Mount Olympus after being advised by Metis.

As a result, there were only 7 Titans left of the 12 Titans of Mount Odeys.

After Zeus successfully seduced the four Titans, he also won over.

After a lot of deletions and cuts, Olympus actually had to deal with only three Titans at that time: the previous king of gods Kronos, the god of soul and speech Iapetus, and the god of weather Crius.

This is almost a sure win.

But the war was not over yet, and Zeus was allowed to flirt with other goddesses. This would weaken the exclusive favor of the goddess Metis, and wouldn't it be like teasing the original goddess of wisdom? Who was so bold that he was not afraid of Metis's revenge later?

"It is Prometheus the Seer, the good son of Iapetus, the Titan of Soul and Speech."

Athena, one of the indirect victims, answered quietly, with a helpless expression.

"In order to prove himself, he surrendered to Olympus and gave the God King a special idea of separation of powers and checks and balances. In order to ensure that this seduction was foolproof, he also suggested that the God King go to the primordial ocean and seek help from the Father Uranus..."

"So, he brought back Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty?!"

Lorne suddenly understood, and the clues in his mind connected together the complete course of events.

Two Titan goddesses and a host of divine lovers united with Zeus in an almost selfless way.

This is so weird...

Obviously, Zeus obtained the help of Aphrodite, which enabled him to bypass Metis and capture those goddesses.

Perhaps it was because he realized how terrifying Aphrodite was that the King of Gods chose to marry her to the god of fire Hephaestus after his formal pursuit failed, and kept his distance from the god of love from then on.

If a certain human-shaped seeder with a wide range of interests was not afraid of the hidden tricks of the goddess of love, how could he let go of Aphrodite, such a beauty?

"Yes, this is how the Titan War went..."

Seemingly satisfied with the man's wisdom in seeing the big picture from the details, Athena nodded slightly, gave an affirmative answer, and then continued to add.

"All of this was told to me by Prometheus himself. He had a premonition that Olympus would replace the order of the twelve Titans, so he followed his fate and came to surrender. Unexpectedly, after gaining a new ally, the God King actually swallowed up his other ally and married his sister Hera instead, showing that he followed the guidance of destiny and maintained the power to continue life."

Hearing this, Luo En was a little confused: "Why don't you resist?"

The Queen of Gods could be regarded as an absolute hero in shaping the Olympus system. With her wisdom and the grace of rescuing Hestia's five siblings, she might have a chance to turn the tables even when facing Zeus.

"Because..." The goddess of wisdom paused, her eyes were a little complicated, "...she is pregnant..."

Women who give birth to life are always so stupid. They blindly believe in love and their perception of danger is weakened by the budding maternal instinct.

In the brief silence, Loen sighed: "So, after seeing the methods of His Majesty the God King, Prometheus was also afraid?"

“I regret it too…” Athena sighed quietly, “Because after Metis was devoured, there is only one wise man left who can influence the kingship of Olympus…”

Then, the goddess of wisdom paused, turned and looked towards the direction of Crete, and revealed a deeper secret.

"So, after he sensed that His Majesty the Divine King would attack him, he created a kind of life on earth."

——Human?

Loen took a deep breath and couldn't help but marvel at the layout of those highly intelligent players.

"As compensation, Prometheus entrusted humanity to me, and I became the Great Mother Goddess worshipped by mankind," Athena responded calmly.

Loen looked at the goddess of wisdom opposite him who showed no emotion, and added quietly.

"Perhaps, it could also be a form of exploitation..."

If I remember correctly, the prophet not only predicted the end of the previous generation of gods, Kronos, but also predicted the fate of this generation of gods, Zeus.

——Titan’s curse will continue, and he will never be able to avoid the fate of being overthrown by his son.

You are the only one who talks too much!

The goddess of wisdom, who was immersed in the past, rolled her eyes at a certain black-bellied bastard who always thought the worst of others, and snorted in annoyance.

"Don't worry, he has suffered enough. He is still in the Caucasus Mountains, waiting for the day when I can find a way to rescue him."

Loen smiled awkwardly and immediately stopped secretly trying to flatter the prophet.

There was no way. One pendant on Athena's leg was enough. The current load was already full, so he didn't bother to care what kind of big game the prophet was playing.

As she further opened her heart and poured out her deepest secrets, the goddess of wisdom's expression gradually relaxed and became much more relaxed.

Loen also tactfully avoided these depressing past events and chose a more lighthearted topic, asking Athena about the results of the hunt, and acting as if he couldn't wait to see the spoils.

However, Athena's answer caught him off guard.

"Oh, you mean Charybdis? She ran away..."

Run away?

Luo En looked stunned and somewhat unbelievable.

Are you kidding me? Artemis and Apollo both dealt with their targets easily. You are also a main god, and a great god of war, but you also fail sometimes.

--wrong!

In a trance, Loen raised his head and met those bright eyes full of smiles, and he immediately understood.

As we all know, fishing requires making a nest first, and then casting the hook and bait.

The same is true for fishing enforcement...

If I remember correctly, the escaped Charybdis was a relative of Poseidon.

After figuring out the key, Loen couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"You are really thoughtful!"

Athena did not appreciate the compliment, she just rolled her eyes and snorted in annoyance.

"Isn't it because you all put all your thoughts on other things?"

Hearing this, Luo En recalled the scene in front of the fire just now and couldn't help but smile awkwardly.

It really is...

The three teammates who were summoned were all busy talking about love, and only Sister Ya was still thinking about business and was playing C crazily in the front.

It's really not easy to get them into the pit.

Just as the two external brains of the team met in the grove and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, a pale wave advanced from the horizon, and the entire island of Sicily felt an increasingly obvious sense of shock under the surging tide.

Here we come!

Sensing the huge noise, Lorne and Athena looked at each other and smiled maliciously at the same time.
