The Dragon That Devours the World

Chapter 7: Age of Man and God

In the distant past, when the land was crowded with animals, there were no humans.

At this time, the **** Prometheus set foot on the earth. He is the son of the goddess of justice and the giant god. This wise and upright **** traveled the earth and saw that the earth was distressed, so he had an idea.

The great **** first sought help from his grandmother Gaia, who made a god-like form with water and soil. Then he asked his friend Athena, the goddess of wisdom, for help. Athena was very willing to help herself, so she blew the breath of God into the mud man's heart, and the mud man had a soul.

The clay figurines started to run, and there were humans.

This is the first era of mankind, but with the war between monsters and gods, the era of mankind has fallen into destruction.

The earth was torn apart, the land was submerged, the flames burned the forest vegetation, the sky was smeared black, and mankind was faced with extinction.

But on a high mountain there is still a couple named Deucalion and Pyla, who were trapped by the flood for a long time, and didn't realize that the world had been destroyed until the flood receded.

In desperation, the couple prayed to the gods, and the gods told them to throw the soil behind them, and the soil became a new human being.

In this way, mankind has survived the catastrophe of annihilation.

"So, human beings have already reproduced on the earth again."

Beneath the underworld, the majestic and ruthless goddess turned pale and asked the surrounding maids.

This **** of serpents serves the master of destruction, but also belongs to the underworld. During this time, she is working on rebuilding the kingdom of snake people.

It was in this dark and terrifying world of death that the servants of those snakes were born.

But on the other hand, the goddess also listened to the news from the earth, especially the news of human beings, and would not let it go. Because Orochi once said by chance that the protagonists of this world are both gods and human beings, so she became interested.

There are still ten thousand years from my father's escape, but we must prepare well before that.

"Yes."

The maid respectfully said.

The goddess thought for a moment, then asked the maid to step back, and then closed her eyes.

She is the Norn in the Nordic population, the handmaiden of fate, who is born with a glimpse of fate. And after these many years, her talent has become more and more outstanding, and she has seen more and more. In this world, there are very few things that can hide from her.

Right now, she was about to see who might have threatened her father's existence. Those "troubling bugs" in her father's mouth, she must help him find out.

Close your eyes, but there is infinite brilliance in front of you.

The figure remains on the throne of bones, but the soul has escaped into the gap between the world.

Many pictures appeared in front of this Norn, but she had a cold face, ignored it, and went straight to a farther direction.

Farther and farther, farther and farther, finally, she felt that she had vaguely seen it.

But at this moment, a majestic scolding sounded "Who?!!"

No, it was a certain goddess of fate who noticed her actions.

The control of the gods over the world lies in this. Anything that the gods do not want to be understood by people cannot be understood by mortals. And Mona and the goddess of fate are not on good terms. Although she wants to see fate, she can't see so far.

The goddess who peeps at fate doesn't want to quarrel with the goddess of fate. She only has time to write down a few fragments in a hurry, and everything in front of her eyes is instantly broken.

Above the sky, the goddess of the future who opened her eyes snorted coldly and said slightly angrily.

"That brat."

But this goddess was also afraid of the power of the father of monsters, and stopped the goddess who spied on fate at will, but did not pursue anything.

Under the underworld, Mona opened her eyes and pondered.

In the few afterimages she vaguely remembered, she vaguely saw a figure, a man with a thick and powerful neck and a majestic and terrifying gaze.

With a god-like appearance and a strong and sturdy body, Mona vaguely saw the picture of the man fighting against many powerful monsters. After so many battles, the monsters that he fought against have changed and changed, but the man's figure has never changed.

As for that man's name

"Arcades."

I didn't recite it, just thought about it silently in my heart.

After being stopped, Mona failed to see the era in which the man was born, and even failed to know whether he was a human or a god. But Mona faintly realized that if there is someone in this world who can stop her father, then it is probably only this person.

This yet-to-be-born human **** will be the biggest obstacle for the Father of Snakes to devour the world.

There is no more basis, Mona is just judging.

I'm going to stop him.

The goddess thought so.

Time flies, human beings on the ground multiply again, and civilization is re-established in this destroyed world.

In this world surrounded by the sea, civilizations were gradually born on the largest continents, and they established city-states all over the world.

The gods are quite happy with these interesting mortals, and sometimes noble gods will come to the world, drink, dance and sing with these interesting mortals, and even give birth to offspring.

And those gods with divine blood are more powerful than ordinary people, becoming born monarchs, conquering the four directions, and establishing one powerful kingdom after another.

And the descendants of these gods also revere the gods, offering sacrifices of meat, temple maidens, pottery music, and all the best things in the world to the gods respectfully.

During this period, people and gods were never separated. Gods came from the clouds to the earth, and people went from the earth to the sacred mountains. It was a natural thing.

until something happens.

Tantalus, he is mortal, but also the son of Zeus.

Zeus favored him so much that he was treated like a god, entered and exited the mountain, walked with the gods, drank the gods' jade food and Qiongjiu, and let him rule the most powerful country on earth.

Because of the special favor of Zeus, Tantalus is also respected by the gods. If the arrogant gods once respected a certain mortal, it is probably only Tantalus.

But also because of this, he seems to be too indulgent, the increasingly contemptuous king no longer respects the gods, and even dares to tease the gods. He invited the gods to his house, killed his son, cooked it into meat, and served the gods as beef to test whether the gods really knew everything.

All the gods realized the truth, looked at each other in astonishment, and no one ate. Only the goddess of justice, Demeter, lost her mind because her daughter was taken away by Hades, the king of the underworld, and ate a shoulder blade in anxiety.

In horror, the gods threw the meat in the plate into a box, and the future goddess Croto took out a living child from the box, which was not Populus, the son of Tantalus. It's just that the shoulder blade that this poor boy was eaten by the goddess had to be replaced with ivory.

And when mortals' purpose of provoking and tempting the gods was revealed, the father of the gods was also angry.

"Tantaros, my child on the ground, am I not treating you well?"

At that terrifying banquet, the Father of Man and God looked at his son on the ground indifferently, and asked calmly.

Tantalus felt the fear for the first time. In front of the god-king who dominates the gods, the most powerful king on earth also shivered and shivered.

Without further words, the disappointed god-king just waved his hand. With the sudden yin wind, the warriors of the underworld suddenly emerged from the ground, one left and one right, taking the soul of the once powerful king. Drag into the underworld, and even deeper.

On the other hand, Mona, the goddess of poisonous snakes who was also invited to the banquet, watched all this with a cold eye, watching the king's soul struggling in horror, screaming with his mouth open, but still being dragged into the depths of the ground.

This feast obviously made Zeus extremely angry and dissatisfied. He snorted and went straight away, and the gods also dispersed.

But what happened to Tantalus was just the beginning. It didn't take long for Tantalus' daughter to have another accident.

Niobe, daughter of Tantalus.

This woman of noble birth and the most prominent family married the king of Thebes and became the queen of Thebes. She is beautiful and noble, more like a goddess than mortals.

Her father, Tantalus, was a guest of the gods, and her husband was the ruler of a mighty kingdom. What makes her even more proud are her seven sons and seven daughters, all sons are handsome and brave warriors, and all daughters are beautiful princesses.

Power, wealth, fame, family, beauty are everything a woman wants to have, and she has it all. It can be said that there is no happier mother in the world than her.

However, like her father, she also suffered from arrogance and arrogance.

One day, her husband, Amphion, received a marvelous artifact from the muse, a beautiful harp, which, by plucking the strings, would automatically combine the stones into a broad city wall.

Her husband was very happy, and he celebrated in Thebes with a celebration.

The noble queen also went to wander around the city on a whim, but saw several women praying to the altar during the celebration.

This was nothing at first, but because of her father's death, the queen was quite dissatisfied with the gods recently, so she looked at the altar a few more times. Then he couldn't help laughing, and even got off the carriage and taunted the group of women.

"Poor idiots, if you pray to the **** Zeus and Hera for happiness and health, that's fine. If you pray to Poseidon, Ares, and Athena for your children to be strong and wise, it's fine. But you have to pray to this yourself. An unsafe goddess praying?"

The queen, dressed in luxurious clothes, raised her head proudly and looked at the goddess statue on the altar with contempt.

"This poor woman is nothing but the most unknown daughter of the Titans. She gave birth to two children for Zeus, but she has no place to live. She is forced to hide in Tibet all day, and has to be on an island looming in the water. barely living."

On the altar, it is clearly the Titan goddess Leto.

In the queen's words, it was full of contempt for the goddess.

This goddess is not particularly famous among the gods~www.wuxiaspot.com~, but she gave birth to two famous gods, Apollo and Artemis, for Zeus.

But also because of this, when she was pregnant, the angry goddess Hera cruelly persecuted the poor goddess, so that the pregnant goddess had to hide in Tibet.

But all the gods were afraid of Hera and did not dare to accept the goddess, and even the earth did not dare to provide her with a place to give birth. Only the island of Deros, a small island looming in the water, accepted her and let her live in this water. Two gods were born on the island.

While mocking the goddess, on the other hand, the queen showed off arrogantly.

"By contrast, isn't my father respected by the gods? Isn't my mother Dione the sister of the seven stars in the sky? My ancestor Atlas was so powerful that he could carry the universe in the sky. On my shoulders. My grandfather Zeus is the father of the gods. Isn't my husband the most powerful king of Thebes, the most famous king of the land? Aren't my sons and daughters better than that of the poor goddess? Would two children be more? My wealth could fill every house in the palace, more than the goddess who hides in the east? Isn't my beauty also a goddess?"

"The most honorable king in the world is right in front of you. If you don't come to worship, are you going to worship the goddess who doesn't know where she is and who can't protect herself?"

In front of the queen's barrage of words, the gathered women looked at each other in dismay, and had to remove the offerings and the wreath on the goddess' head.

The queen, who was proud of her victory over the goddess, did not realize that the goddess Leto, who was far away on Mount Khentos, also happened to hear her words.

When the goddess listened to the queen's words, her whole body trembled with anger, and she couldn't help crying.

She suppressed her anger and asked the attendants to go to the sacred mountain and the jungle to call for her pair of children.
