[Greek mythology] Grey-eyed goddess

"If you are persuading me, just don't talk about it."

Marriage Temple, Sfitia came to Hera to discuss jewelry.Of course, behind this kind of action is the desire to win over Hera.

"Sfitia, this is not a personal matter. No matter how good our relationship is, it is related to the rise and fall of my temple, and I will never give in." Hera watched Sfitia walking step by step, and saw this person standing opposite her. The goddess, the heart is quite complicated.

"Have you reached this step in the end? But since I am watching you grow step by step, let me be your final test to see where you can go in the end." Hera thought silently in her heart. With a stern look, he cut off all possibility of discussion in Sfitia.

Sfitia's face is not big enough to offset the bad feeling towards Apollo.So Hera directly rejected Sfitia, without giving her a chance to speak.

"I understand." Seeing that she couldn't be persuaded, Sfitia simply didn't mention it. "Then drink tea with His Highness well, after all, the days of leisure are not many."

The Twelve Temples were actively preparing for the battle, and Hera and Zeus didn't want to give up even if they were in a weak position.Moreover, this time the God of Oceans has also expressed its position to support them.Adding Gaia, these people think that the chances of winning are not small.

"Well, we won't talk about business today." Hera said to Iris, and Iris prepared herbal tea and corresponding snacks.

The two talked happily, and finally Sfitia left.

"Wait." Hera stopped Sfitia: "About—"

"If it's the goddess of fertility, don't worry, Your Highness, I won't attack her." The goddess of fertility is one of Hera's daughters and currently works in the temple of Sfitia.Sfitia smiled and said: "We are gods, and the battles between gods rarely involve life and death. Don't worry, I will take good care of her. Even you, Your Highness, can still be sacrificed as the main god after defeat. Apollo wants Yes, it is only the supreme right to rule, and there is no plan to abolish the rights of His Majesty the God King."

After finishing speaking, he left calmly.

"Finally we will match up!" Sfitia was also very complicated in her heart. In all fairness, Hera was really good to her, but when it comes to the issue of position, she only came to inquire about it with a ten thousandth hope.

"Sure enough, it doesn't work. It seems that Hermes and Hephaestus won't work either."

Sfitia came to persuade Hera, Apollo went to Hermes, and Athena was in charge of Hephaestus, but all three failed. These three gods stood firmly on Zeus' side this time.

Originally, Sfitia wanted to go directly to the Temple of Glory, but at this time Dionysus approached: "Are you free? Let's go to the earth."

"Earth? Real body?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as the power is sealed, the real body can also come." Dionysus scepter struck, and he drove the divine chariot to bring her to the territory of the Kaiou Empire.

The territory of the entire Far West is barely comparable to the territory of a big central country.The Kaiou Empire is waiting to be rebuilt, and the gods secretly promote the rapid development of the empire.The two gods saw many incarnations of gods come to the world to promote the development of all walks of life.

Dionysus' destination was a farmland.

The golden fields are harvesting, but it is strange that the god of harvest worshiped today is not Demeter, the god of agriculture, but Dionysus, the god of fertility.

Frowning subconsciously, he walked in the field with Dionysus.

There are various crops specially cultivated by Dionysus here, and the yield is much higher than the crops cultivated by the God of Saturn in the central region, and there are many things that cannot be seen in Athens.Such as corn, sweet potato and so on.

"I used to be called the God of Plenty, so in order for the true king to establish a unified empire, I prepared these crops to provide him with food. The progress of agriculture was originally planned to be handed over to Demeter. But since they have That vote is so hard to come by, so I can temporarily take the position of the God of Saturn."

At the beginning, Dionysus was too busy entangled with the ocean god to care about the underworld.When the gods voted to promote the unification of the empire, Hermona could only sacrifice her priesthood in exchange for a precious vote from Hades.Afterwards, Dionysus was furious and directly cut off the new type of agriculture he left to Demeter.

"Didn't she want to distinguish between public and private? I will give her this opportunity. If she wants to exchange for my priesthood of abundance, I will exchange those priesthoods of revenge and darkness."

"Okay, why are you fighting against them? The Abyss Project needs everyone to work together." Sfitia had a calm attitude. "No need, everyone is so stiff."

"Hey, I'm helping you vent your anger. What's the matter with you suddenly letting go?"

"Those clergy are not the main clergy, so let them go." Sfitia covered her mouth with her robe and hid the smile on her lips, pretending to be plain and said: "It's useless to fight for anything at this time." , the priesthood in the new world is the most important. Occupy the highest position in the new world to gain the power of Nix, and these priesthoods can be made at will." But it is indeed a little pleasant for Dionysus to help himself, at least he sacrificed himself Those priesthoods are not in vain.

Dionysus wanted to say something else, but Sfitia changed the subject: "Okay, my relationship with the Empress of the Underworld is not as good as that of Al, but it's not bad at all. I'll settle this matter, even if we maintain peace on the surface, Invisibly, it is also a kind of network.”

O those hypocritical friendships of the goddesses!Dionysus thought about it in his heart, but he also thought of the deal between their male gods. Interest is the eternal theme.

"Now, how long will it take for Kaiou to regain his national strength and start attacking?"

"Three years will do."

"So fast?" Sfitia was surprised: "Although I don't understand military affairs, hoarding food and grass for three years is not enough, right? In addition, there is also the manufacture of weapons. Although there are weapons left by Vulcan, he has restraints." weapons that cannot really work.”

"Don't forget, we have magic. Your student, Kalin, studies natural magic and integrates the druid magic of the original father of nature into his own magic. Natural magic is best at giving birth to plants, and it only takes three years for crops to grow. It is enough to produce the food and grass needed for a war. As for more, supply while fighting, and the logistics will continue to use magic to maintain balance. Don't worry, Athena and I have already planned it."

Sfitia is very knowledgeable, and she knows nothing about strategy and military affairs, so she simply delegates power.

"By the way, there is another place I want to take you to see."

The sea of ​​flowers, the endless hydrangea sea.Fragrant and fragrant, the petals dance in the wind in the field.

Sfitia was stunned: "If I remember correctly, hydrangeas cannot be grown in the soil of the Far West?"

This is what Sfitia regrets the most, but not only him, Athena's olive trees are also difficult to grow in the far west.It is said to be a soil issue.

"I've improved the land here, and it can adapt to the new species of hydrangea. Look, how about it."

The sea of ​​golden flowers that symbolizes hope, but as the breeze blows, the waves of the sea of ​​flowers suddenly turn red, and the fiery red flowers bloom brilliantly, and then continue to spread with the wind, and finally the entire golden sea turns red.

Sfitia was stunned, and said in surprise, "Double-color flower?"

"Yes, it looks golden normally, but if the bottom of the flower is exposed after the wind passes, it will be fiery red, which is the same color as my hair."

"This is the new variety you cultivated? It's not bad." Sfitia walked into the sea of ​​flowers lightly, and weaved a wreath on her head with ease.The two-color corolla, hydrangea is her holy flower, and she suddenly understands why some people like to send flowers when they are courting others.

"In this respect, Dionysus was clearly more skilled than Apollo."

"My planting skills are good. If it is a special flower, I should try it too?" Dionysus said vaguely. Facing this goddess, he needed to be careful when speaking.

Sfitia froze for a moment, and the second corolla she wove in her hand stopped for a while, and then silently wove it on Dionysus's head.

"If you want to try it..." Putting the corolla on Dionysus's head, Sfitia turned and disappeared, and ran back to the Temple of Fate.

Hearing Sfitia's inarticulate reply, Dionysus suddenly reached out and touched the top of his head, and a lifeless golden plant seed fell out of the corolla.Even the gods have difficulty growing something from this seed.

Smiling slightly, many nymphs nearby exclaimed, intoxicated by the reveler's smile.

……

In the Temple of Destiny, Sfitia hummed a song, and then patted her blushing face: "Calm down, stay sensible. I don't care about these personal affairs at this time." But that god does have a flirting skill, from the very beginning. Help Sfitia vent her anger, constantly hint at his sense of existence, and show her strong sense of security.There is also a sea of ​​flowers behind, who doesn't like flowers?Especially their own sacred flowers.

"Calm down, calm down, don't rush to think about these things now." After washing his face with cold water, he returned to his usual demeanor.

"Your Highness, someone is looking for you." Baihu jumped to the side, and Sfitia immediately returned to her position.

I saw a warrior standing quietly at the gate of the temple.He has a tall figure, and his hands are attached to his sides. From the slender and neat fingers, the sharp joints, and the calloused hands, it can be seen that this is a pair of hands that hold swords all year round.

The flaxen hair was messy, the man was pale, and he was only wearing a simple samurai uniform.

"So it's you, Adonis, you want to make a deal with me again?" Sfitia let the man in through the door after she sat down firmly.

As soon as he came in, he said bluntly: "Your Highness, exchange my left eye for Sam's legs. As a warrior, he cannot lose his legs."

"So you can pay for your sight?"

"Adonis, don't forget how you got your eyes. And you only have one eye."

How old Adonis was, he himself could not remember.I only remember that Athens had not yet been established when he was born. He was an ancient man who established the city of Athens with Cecrops and witnessed the confrontation between the gods with his own eyes.

But when he watched his friend Cecrops die, he was filled with fear of death and wanted to find the way to eternal life.

For this wish, Sfitia refused at first.

Eternal life means the life of a god, how could Sfitia give it away so easily?

But he couldn't bear Adonis' pleading, and he deliberately helped the Temple of Glory a lot.So Sfitia felt sorry and gave him eternal life, but as a price, he had to bind himself to a specific human being.When that human died, he had to fall into a deep sleep for a period of time, and then wake up again to continue looking for the next human, using the life blood of human beings to provide his own activity energy.

Regarding this choice, Sfitia once said that he will definitely regret it in the future.Immortal life is not as good as he imagined.

The fingertips of the goddess touched his eyes. The right eye has a gray pupil, but it is different from Nix's pupil of the night. This is the result of losing vision.

"If I remember correctly, you once helped a contractor get the future, and used your right eye as a price to exchange weapons from me to rescue him from the cage."

"And it's not the first time that your left eye has been used as a price. You have traded with me three times, but later on someone will help you pay the price to get your left eye back." Thinking of the price paid by his friends, Adonis A pain in my heart.Those people were his former contractors, and before he died, he made a wish to Sfitia, and exchanged the price he paid one by one.

His left eye, his hands and his heart were all given by others, symbolizing his past bondage.

"This time, do you actually want to pay for the left eye again?"

"Yes, Sam's a warrior, and there's a duel soon, and he can't lose his legs."

Sfitia was silent, and suddenly remembered something: "I remember you once participated in Troy?"

"Yes. I was a petty officer at Troy. My contractor was an Athenian general."

"How many battles did you take part in later?"

"Yes."

"So you should be very talented in war?"

"I can't say I am talented, but compared to ordinary people, I have lived for so long, and my experience is enough to deal with everything." Adonis suddenly felt a movement in his heart: "Your Highness, do you mean..."

"You go to the war and help the Kaiou Empire defeat the Central Kingdom. This is your price, in exchange for my contractor who treats you." Immediately, the conversation changed: "However, you'd better be careful. Remember my advice , you will regret it in the future."

After speaking, send Adonis away.Then I saw a colorful gemstone in the wishing pool with a little more pattern, which was a little bit away from being completely golden.

"Annie, for your husband, you sacrificed your soul for my care of Adonis. Remember, this is the sixth time."
