How to wear a goddess statue

The northwest border, outside the city of Digbia.

Separated by a barrier of divine power, the gods of Solancia stand opposite the other two gods. The divine force field, which is insignificant in the eyes of humans, is extremely clear in the perception of the gods, and the sense of existence is like a mountain.

At least the mountain can still be climbed over, but there is no passageway in the semicircle upwards. If the powerful foreign gods want to enter the territory of Solancia, they can only break through with the same quality of divine power.

It's not that difficult.

The enchantment is not the sum of the powers of the main gods of Solan. The divine power it carries is limited and will be gradually consumed. Perhaps a few blows of the Sanur wolf god cannot break through this defense, but if you really want to do it, Enchantments won't do much either.

What really played a deterrent effect was the Soran god himself standing in the air behind the barrier.

The god of the sky and the wind, yes.

He is the head of the gods in the posture of a baby, with a solemn and solemn face. Such an expression may be a little funny on a child, but as we all know, gods never judge strength by form.

For a long period of time, none of the gods spoke first, and they didn't feel that the atmosphere was weird when they stood relatively still, as if they were thinking for a moment before starting a conversation.

One night, it was indeed just a moment for them.

During this period, the city of Digbia behind the gods has completely fallen, and the ethnic group from the highland grassland has become the temporary master of this important city.

The wolf god spoke first.

"It's dawn." Uracan showed his sharp teeth and fangs to the gods. One to one—”

The God of Wisdom Nerd frowned: "Sorry, interrupt."

Wolf God: "Why, are you unhappy?"

"No, I just don't understand why you're saying this." Nelder paused, "To let us know, can you count from one to a hundred?"

The wolf god bared his teeth and waved his claws threateningly.

Nield closed his eyes: "I'm sorry, I overestimated."

——The appearance of this beast is likely to be less than ten.

The wolf god's eyes turned left and right, from the rightmost moon god in the opposite camp to the leftmost death god, and finally fell on a small group of sky gods.

His eyes flashed with beastly ferocity, but in the end he just said in a low voice: "God Soran, hum."

God Solan.

The earliest god system formed on the mainland is also the god system with the longest existence. It was formed at the same time as Solancia thousands of years ago.

Among them, the god king, the grace of the sky, may have been born earlier than before.

Earlier, when the scattered city-states in this land had not yet been established, and when the human beings who lived in divisions still believed in their respective totem animals, the God of the Sky might have existed as a totem at this time.

The tribes at that time could not be considered civilizations, and the totems believed by the tribes certainly could not be called gods, but what is certain is that En must be one of the first gods.

Speaking of this, I have to mention, what exactly does the power of a god depend on?

——It is the setting given by human beings in mythology, as well as the amount of belief in the world.

Under normal circumstances, the weight of the former is higher than that of the latter. However, when different civilization gods are compared with each other, a new criterion for judging is introduced, which is time.

The gods that have existed for a longer time will naturally have higher divine power.

And although Solancia is not like the Sanur tribe, all the people are soldiers; it is not like Kasne, who advocates force.

But this country with a long history occupies the largest area and the largest population. Both conditions are given priority. It can be said that the power of the Soran pantheon is naturally stronger than the other two pantheons.

Facing the gods of Solan, Perluther, the goddess of the soul, watched silently, with the above thoughts passing through her mind.

Immediately, the unchanging smiling face seemed to deepen.

Even if the Soran pantheon is the most powerful, they will only be at a disadvantage in this battle of gods.

...After all, it is one against two.

Thinking of this, the goddess of the soul asked: "There are eight main gods in the Solan pantheon, but there is also a river goddess. Why is she not here?"

Hearing this, the Soran pantheon hadn't responded yet, but the Sanur pantheon looked over blankly.

A god with a sheep's head nervously held the hovering horns, and said timidly: "The river goddess of Solancia seems to have never appeared before."

The wolf god snorted: "That's their god...what's it called, human god. It hasn't been formed yet, and I probably won't be able to participate in the war."

Gleeful gloating appeared on the wolf's face, but it quickly turned into doubt.

"Is she awake?" Wolf God asked bluntly.

The Goddess of Mind smiled and nodded.

Aditya, the god of love, yawned—the gods are naturally not tired, but this move is undoubtedly a good way to express ridicule—she curled her lips lazily and said: "It was just about ten years ago, you If you know so clearly, you must have been prepared. Right, Perluther?"

Goddess of Soul: "It's just a little concern, no matter how you say it, it's a 'human being' I once knew, and I'm deeply impressed.”

Adiya didn't know much about the past before Rhodes became a god, and she didn't know how these two gods who belonged to different gods intersected.

She looked at Pearl, with a little uncertainty flashing in her eyes.

Earth Goddess Soga shook her head and said kindly, "Don't tell her, Aditya. Perluther has been difficult to deal with thousands of years ago."

The Goddess of Soul sighed: "Such words really make God unhappy...so is it true that Rhodes is not here?"

"She has something to delay, anyway, now is not the time for the main god to take action." Aditya spread her hands.

Goddess of Soul: "That's it, that's really a pity."

She was still smiling when she said this, and didn't ask much, as if she accepted the situation of Rhodes taking shape but not standing with other gods.

It also seemed that Perluther had long expected that the river goddess would not appear.

Suojia lowered his eyes and let out a breath.

It seems that Rhodes is right. Perluther knows her recent situation, so she should really cast a shadow in the royal city.

Casting shadows in Solancia is also preparing for the start of the war of gods, so...the connection between the Kasner gods and humans is far closer than they imagined before.

On the right side of Suojia, the Sun and Moon twin gods standing side by side, one smiling and the other indifferent, but they pricked up their ears with the same aspirations.

Among the main gods of the Soran pantheon, apart from Rhodes, they were the last to form. When it comes to the past of this kind of god that I have never heard of, I will always be curious.

In particular, this seems to have something to do with Rhodes?

When Rhodes just woke up and came to the kingdom of God, he even asked about his past, but the sun and moon gods were born too late, so they didn't know about it.It's a pity for Rhodes, and it's a pity for the two of them.

However, under the gaze of the two gods, the three goddesses belonging to the two sides stopped talking and just laughed.Aditya smiled thoughtfully, Suo Jia smiled amiably, and the goddess of the soul still had an unchanged smiling face, without revealing a word.

Standing next to the Kasner pantheon, the wolf god did not smile.

In a god system, the gap in combat power between the gods is unimaginable, especially the gods who are the main beliefs of human beings.

According to Solancia, it is the main god.As the main god of water, Rhodes is equivalent to one-eighth, at least one-tenth, of the total combat power of the Soran pantheon.

"It's just a goddess, it doesn't matter if you wake up." Next to the wolf god, the vulture god with bird wings didn't care. He raised one wing and pointed to the city of Digbia below.

"We will defeat you, and the humans of Sanur will defeat them even more." The vulture god said, "Look, our humans will perform sacrifices, and the sacrifices are the captives of Solancia!"

The voice fell, and the sun rose from the sky.

In the newly occupied city of Digbia, a human sacrifice is about to begin.

The Sanur people from the highland grassland live as nomads and are fierce by nature.

They retain many primitive customs, some of which will make people from other countries unable to understand anyway.

For example, eating human flesh when food is extremely scarce, including the old, weak, sick, and even women of the same race.

Another example is human sacrifice, or blood ritual.

The Sanur people do not hold sacrifices on specific festivals, and there are no priests. The tribal leaders are often responsible for the ceremony.

Before the Great Migration, or before and after the battle, they would choose suitable human sacrifices, usually young girls from the tribe, or prisoners of war taken from other places.

If it is just a relatively ordinary sacrifice, only one or two human sacrifices will be selected, and ten for the larger ones. For a major event such as the capture of the important city of Solan, if there are enough prisoners of war, the sacrifices will probably reach hundreds.

The "sacrifice" will be taken to a high place, the limbs will be tied, and then the blood will be let out one by one. When dying, the heart will be cut off, the fingers will be cut off, and finally the head will be cut off. These are gifts to the gods.

In the past, each tribe would only worship the totem god that the tribe believed in, but after the tribe was unified, the leader set a new standard——

Sacrifice to the vulture god in the morning, to the sheep god when the sun moves to a quarter of the sky... and so on, and finally to the wolf god Ulakan after nightfall.

Soldiers imitate wolves howling at the moon from high places, eat meat and dance around the campfire, and then end the day's ritual.

Raw, bloody, brutal.

This is a portrayal of Sanur, and it is also the look and feel of the sacrificial ceremony. The same characteristics have shaped the Sanur pantheon, that is, these gods with animal heads.

The prisoners of war were escorted to the city wall.

In this city, the city wall is absolutely high. The leader of Sanur held a scimitar and cut bloodstains on the arms of the prisoners of war. The bloodstains were not deep, but it was just for the convenience of bloodletting.

The flow of blood slowly took away the vitality of the prisoner of war. He tried to commit suicide without success.

The first sacrifice raised his head and stared at the body of the city lord hanging on the wall until his pupils dilated.

The leader smiled in satisfaction, and swung his knife to cut out the still beating heart.

The morning sacrifice is dedicated to the vulture god, and for him, it also means the supplement of faith.

The vulture god opened his beak, feeling full of divine power, and at the same time released the first ruthless words from both sides at the beginning of the battle between the gods.

"Wait to be torn apart by us, God Solan!"

Sky God: "..."

Sky God: "We'll wait and see."

At the same time, a silvery white light flashed across the surface of the Yilu River near the city of Digbia.

Some are like the water splashes caused by fish flopping. In fact, it is a silver streamer reflected by the slender caudal fin at the end of a fish's tail protruding from the water.

Rodas emerged from the river, restrained his divine power, and looked at the barrier outside the city.

After traveling all night, her incarnation, the Silver Mermaid, finally arrived at the northwest border.

...with a Cassne POW attached.

Looking at the dream banshee trailing behind him, Rhodes thought so.

The author has something to say:

Speaking of which, I went to read the Iliad before, and I wanted to see how the gods fought, but the description of the gods fighting was, um, very direct and rude.

such as--

Hera (Queen of God) grabbed both wrists of Artemis (Greek moon god) with her left hand, pulled off the bow and arrow of the moon god with the other hand, and beat Artemis on the cheek with the bow, and the moon god kept dodging and flying. The arrow falls out of the quiver.

Help, when I saw this place, I felt a little astringent...?

I'm not right.JPG
