[Quick Transmigration] COS saves the world

Chapter 156 God Loves the World 6

"Give the Hilo people the status of a free citizen?" Menelaus was simply laughed at: "Even if you are a god, you really shouldn't make such an unreasonable request-the winner becomes the ruler, and the loser becomes the slave. This is the truth that has existed on the earth since ancient times. Lost dogs who have lost their own country are not eligible to enjoy the treatment of free people!"

"Is it really because of this reason?" Shen Yan cut off his indignation unceremoniously and said bluntly.

Menelaus's indignation stopped abruptly, and the anger on his face turned into a stone-like coldness: "Since you already know the reason, why do you make such a request? Giving the Hilo people freedom and Who should plow the fields, and who should provide food for the Spartan army? This is not something you should intervene in. Human beings should decide what happens between human beings.”

Immediately, Menelaus also seemed to realize that his tone was too blunt, so he quickly remedied: "Of course, I didn't mean to offend you two in the slightest, but this matter is really difficult for me to do. Even if anyone The Hilo people are your believers. It is their prayers that have attracted your attention. Please don’t believe their nonsense. This is the suffering that the people of every perishing country should endure. As long as you are willing to ignore their unreasonable Pray practically, I am willing to build a temple for you, and let your name spread to every corner of Sparta."

Menelaus is confident that the bargaining chip he gave is enough to make all the gods move. Money and power in the world have always been easy for the gods. Only human faith can satisfy the vanity of the gods. Between the piercing wailing of believers and the faith of a whole nation, Menelaus believed that Apollo and Dionysus must know which choice to make.

However... the direction of things seems to be a little different from what he imagined...

"...Should human affairs be decided by human beings?" Menelaus had to admit that he was tempted—in fact, dissatisfaction with gods is definitely not an exception. He made an act of deceiving the gods by sacrificing the fruits of his labor to the gods, but the result of that incident was obviously enough to make all the latecomers after that not dare to repeat the same tragedy.

But as the saying goes, where there is oppression, there will be resistance. Why don't they want to control their own destiny?No one wants the scissors of the goddess of fate to end their lives at a certain point with a click.Even if they all know that death will be the final destination of human beings even if there is no goddess of fate, isn't the most precious thing about life lies in its unpredictability?If their future is doomed from the moment of birth, is it really necessary for them to "live" as marionettes?

"What you will face is not only the gods, but also your kind and everything in the sky, the earth, and the world." Shen Yan narrated in a deep voice, his deep voice was like the singing of a siren, which made people feel ashamed Can't help but affect all the minds: "Only by uniting all human beings who can unite, and only by using your hands to create a mighty power comparable to gods, can you be in charge of your own destiny, and you can truly become your own masters—you Are you really willing to be the lamb of the gods?"

Shen Yan's last words stung Menelaus's nerves—the lamb of the gods—ha!Isn't it just a lamb to be slaughtered?Even he, facing the chess game of the gods, had to become the sword of the gods. For a woman who was unfaithful to him, he had to launch a ten-year-long arduous battle. And bring her back to Sparta!That was simply the shame of his life. Perhaps he once had true affection for Helen, but that affection had long been wiped away in the game of the gods.

But he finally brought her back to Sparta - not because of his deep feelings for her, but because the gods said: There was a ten-year feud between Greece and Troy over the competition for the peerless beauty Helen. Battle of Troy.

So they had to fight for ten years, so he must have started this battle for Helen.

How ridiculous!Menelaus had to admit that Dionysus was a god with extremely negative language talents, and he had been persuaded by him-but he could not agree to their request in this way, because he gave the Hilo free people His identity is not a matter for him alone, it is related to the rise and fall of the entire Sparta, he must be responsible for his people - "I am willing to unite my brothers, but I want to know what you said is comparable to a god What is mighty power? Can human flesh and blood really compete against gods?"

As soon as Shen Yan heard what Menelaus said, Shen Yan knew that the matter had already become half-although the human beings in this land all originated from the same ancestor, but those who can be called brothers have always been born and bred in their own country and recognized Citizens of the world—even foreign citizenship-granted heroes seldom deserved to be called that.So the title of Menelaus is enough to prove his attitude.

And the purpose of his statement in this way is also very clear in the eyes of Shen Yan and Ye Ying: he is asking them for something in return.Since he has the mighty power to rival the gods, after he returned the freedom of the Hilos, Shen Yan and the others should guarantee that their Spartans would not starve to death due to the reduction of slaves—don’t say anything to let the Spartans farm What nonsense, every thing they've learned from the day they could hold a sword is how to kill an enemy on the field and let them farm the land with murderous hands?

ha!I'm afraid there won't be a single grain of wheat in the fields this year.

There is nothing wrong with Menelaus's considerations, and his request is not too much. For the gods, it is the duty of the gods to protect his believers with good weather and good harvests. Demeter, who has a covenant with them, can easily do this—however, Shen Yan does not intend to just promise: "You need to conquer nature by yourself."

Seeing that Menelaus was puzzled, Shen Yan thought for a while, and finally let go: "Since this is not a business that can be completed overnight, I can perform a miracle once a year to help your land increase tenfold, but the premise of that is that you Grow enough wheat to survive until harvest, and I will only help you for 20 years at most, and I will not continue to help you after 20 years even if you have not found a way to support yourself."

Hearing Shen Yan's request, Menelaus was completely relieved. Unlike the grand ambition that sounded like a whimsical dream just now, this is more like the usual behavior of the gods-they will perform miracles, but if humans can't Give them what they want, and they will abandon human beings mercilessly - there is nothing wrong with this, you have to give something if you want to get it, even gods are not ignorant of gains and losses, and you must pay for it if you want to get investment. Proving your worth, it makes sense.

What's more, 20 years is not a short period of time. If 20 years is not enough for them to learn how to support themselves, then let alone do the great cause of overthrowing the gods, because they are not worthy!

Just when Menelaus was hesitating whether he should respond immediately, Shen Yan's voice again pried open the last line of defense in his heart: "Nife of Sparta will become my agent, the wise man of mankind, A prophet on the ground. He will have wisdom and vision far beyond the gods. If you encounter confusion and difficulties on the way forward, then ask him for advice. He will give you the most appropriate guidance and advice. help."

"...I understand. I will follow your wishes and give them freedom. May your glory bless Sparta forever."

Speaking of the middle-aged king, he prostrated himself at the feet of the gods in the most humble posture in his life and made his oath: "I will lead Sparta to become the vanguard of mankind. We will not fear death, fear danger, and never turn back. We will fight to the death for the common cause of mankind."

He knew that what he was kneeling was definitely not the god in front of him, but his own ambition and belief that he had finally clarified after nearly 50 years of wandering.

------

After arranging all the affairs in Sparta, Shen Yan and Ye Ying did not stay any longer. They turned into merchants and bards again and went to other city-states. This time they also learned a lesson. His own appearance restrained his aura and wandered in the world—although he had chosen Nefi as his agent, he did not reject the fact that human beings would give birth to their own leaders. Not one person can do it.

Only when more people wake up—clarify their own demands, awaken the awareness of resistance, and develop a desire for independence—then more people will voluntarily and spontaneously devote themselves to the great cause of overthrowing gods and liberating all mankind. .Only in this way can more great beings be born among human beings, and only when they fight forward and die, can more human beings be awakened to participate in this unprecedented battle.

This will be the cry of human beings waking up, this will be the evening bell for the gods to sleep, and this will be the prelude to the transformation of the world...

And he and Ye Ying will not only be the dawn leading the rise of mankind, but also the mourners of Olympus, they will also be the kindling that ignites the fire of the prairie fire - they will travel in the world, constantly Show miracles.

Not only to help Nephi divert Zeus' sight, but also to spread the "fire" for human beings - human beings are such terrible existences sometimes, we just need to liberate their minds, give them a little bit of hope, and describe the "fire" for them. In an ideal picture, there will be countless people who will sacrifice their lives to work hard, struggle, and fight for that goal.

They are afraid of death, and they are even more afraid of the meaninglessness of life. Everyone always wants to leave something and change something when they live. Maybe the power of one of them is very small, or the power of a certain group of them is not enough, but when they are all When the population gathers together and bursts out with a strong will, the only ones who can stop them are themselves!

They ran around to sow fire, and humans went forward to pass on the torch. When the gods of Olympus were still intoxicated by the beautiful music of the lyre and the intoxicating wine, when the thunder of Zeus was still impotent and furious, the transformation of mankind had already begun. The prelude kicked off quietly, and something between the heaven and the earth seems to be different...
