Whether it is working hard to make yourself a strong man like Perseus, or relying on wisdom to build world-renowned achievements, or even stealing the achievements of others and imposing it on yourself, no matter what...become a hero.
It was as if someone was whispering in their ears.
But Zeus's meritorious deeds are not over yet.
"Pekasus, the pure Pegasus born from the body of Gorgon, the good born from evil thoughts, I allow you to ascend to the sky and be with the stars, and I need you to help the hero crusade Typhon'children" in the future."
Just like the previous stars, several stars are connected together, and the silver-white pegasus is vivid in the sky.
On an island far away from the land of Greece, a ray of starlight fell into Medusa's body. She slowly opened her eyes and felt the mission that Zeus had arranged for her.
"Mission? Don't give me the bondage of death? I accept your will."
Medusa was kneeling on the ground praying, she could feel the meaning of Zeus's words.
Zeus understands that Medusa has no meaning to live, but if Medusa must have a meaning to live, then Zeus will give him meaning.
Finally, there is the promise Zeus made to Perseus.
Even if the heroes of later generations accomplished enough feats, they would only become sublimated into constellations alone, and Perseus...
"This is a privilege for you. As the first constellation, the first hero, and the first demigod, I give you the privilege."
Zeus sighed, it really is really hard to be completely fair and just, especially the price that Zeus has always planned to maintain humanity.
"Ethiopia's former king Ops, former queen Cassiopeia, queen Androda, and Perseus have contributed to maintaining peace in Greece. You are granted permission to ascend to the sky to be with him. You can be the seat of Cepheus and Cassiopeia." , Andromeda."
Three streams of light flew from the volcano in Sicily, and the three souls that had been preserved in the underworld also began to rise into the sky, and the fusion of the soul and the thinking chip began. Si, both faith and will are too far behind, I think it will take more time to complete.
At this moment, Perseus woke up.
"How does it feel?"
"It's a wonderful feeling. I don't know if it's because of the change of race or the experience of life and death that made me change a little. I just feel that some things don't seem so important."
Perseus looked at himself now, and he still remembered the worries he had when he was old, was he still himself after he became like this?
"As long as the concept of 'I' is firmly established, then am I who I am? It's really a profound truth."
Perseus sighed that Zeus could see the true self so clearly, how difficult it is to see himself clearly after having all the power, Perseus can be said to have a deep understanding.
"Some things are easier said than done, but some things are easier said than done."
Zeus has maintained his humanity for so many years, and it has gradually become a daily routine. It is not difficult for him to see his "self", but he can also feel it.
If you want to defeat the white giant, you may have to give up part of your humanity, so Zeus cherishes these things very much.
"You have things to deal with too, don't you?"
"That's right, with such a talented challenger, I should lose you the next time we meet."
Perseus thought of the Hercules who was still on the ground, and it was time to bid farewell to the last strong man in his "human" life.
"It was a wonderful battle, and it's been a long time since I've been so happy."
Perseus slowly landed on the ground, but what was waiting for him was not a grandpa's smile, but a hard punch.
"Want to leave after winning?"
Hercules admitted that he had lost. In the battle just now, he was suppressed by a person who would die of old age at any time. This feeling of defeat was the first time in his life.
The punch was full of anger, but it was caught by Perseus.
"I'm waiting for you to challenge me, so during this time, try to become stronger."
Although he just obtained a body, Perseus can still use this body that is not inferior to the peak period, and at this time, he can easily block a Hercules who has consumed a lot of strength.
"But strictly speaking, you did win. I killed you and lived. No matter what method I use, compared with the dead, the living are definitely the winners."
"Dead? Are you dead now? And in my opinion, the so-called victory refers to the altitude. Only those who can look down at the opponent from the heights are the winners."
Hercules was gifted and tall, but his age was such that he was really looked down upon by Perseus at this time.
"Since we have different opinions on the outcome of this match, let's put it aside for now and wait for another battle later, and now I need to present you with prizes."
"prize?"
Hercules was taken aback, he didn't come here for any so-called prizes, but to defeat the number one Greek hero in front of him.
"Of course there are prizes. How could I not give a prize to the strongest challenger? Accept it."
Perseus took out a small box, the seal on which would be broken when he died as a human, and the box was opened.
A golden light attracted everyone's attention, and the concept of "gold" on it was infinitely attractive. If this apple hadn't been held by Perseus at this time, it would definitely be a treasure that made countless people crazy.
"Golden apples?"
"Yes."
"I do not need."
"Hehe, I didn't intend to give it to you either."
"you......"
Hercules was furious. Is the old man in front of him playing tricks on me? And when Perseus saw Hercules' expression, he immediately felt a sense of joy.
Thinking about how Zeus usually looks at his juniors like this, the feeling of torturing the juniors is really... exhilarating.
"You really don't need the golden apple, but my mother and your great-grandmother need it very much. I hope you can take it to Rome and bring it to those who need it."
"I don't have to agree."
Hercules didn't want to walk such a long way. He came here to watch Perseus drink champagne.
Now that Perseus is dead and the champagne is open, there is no need for him to stay.
"The golden apple has the concept of 'gold', and it will attract countless people to covet it. Hercules, the future hero, are you afraid?"
Tried and tested aggressive method.
"Why don't you send it yourself?"
"My mother won't accept it if I give it to you. She will only accept it if you give it to me."
Will my current mother accept it?
If Perseus couldn't figure out the answer, he didn't think about it, and waited until his mother became an existence similar to himself.
It's just that there is no mother's place in the father's declaration, so how should the mother live in this world.
Forget it, he should have a perfect plan.
After all... that's Zeus.
"Then goodbye Hercules, if you are afraid, throw the golden apple on the ground, then you will not be hunted down, live your life timidly."
Not giving Hercules a chance to refuse, Perseus left as quickly as possible, knowing that Hercules could not throw the golden apple on the ground.
This is not because he is tempted by "gold", but because he is entangled by the fighting spirit in his heart. Once he throws the golden apple on the ground, he will admit defeat.
This is something Hercules cannot accept.
......
"The first constellation is completed, and there are still so many in one breath, it should be much better next time."
Zeus dispersed the celestial magic, and the stars in the sky gradually returned to their normal appearance.
"But you guys are too wicked, right? Hercules is your grandson after all, so you set him up like this?"
Zeus watched his son set Hercules a trap, and he didn't know where he learned this bad habit. Could it be that he was too close to that guy Athena?
Those who are close to the ink are black, which belongs to yes.
"I can't help it. Whoever tells the Lord God not to take the lead, I'm just trying to follow the example."
"It really is Athena."
Zeus nodded, let Hercules stay away from Athena in the future, why does Mount Olympus raise so many scheming boys?
"..."
Perseus is all emo, and I have never seen such a shameless person as Zeus. Although Athena is not a good thing, it is a bit...
"Don't mention these, are those two people really your arrangement?"
Perseus looked at Dionysus who was packing his luggage on the mountain in the distance and was about to leave. As the king of Ethiopia, he naturally knew that there were two messengers who claimed to be the god king Zeus staying in temples in this Greek land.
One of them came and went without a trace with astonishing speed, and the other was sentimental and could compose poetry in an instant.
Originally, he thought it was a liar bluffing under the name of Zeus, but he didn't expect that it was really written by Zeus.
"It's not really a layout, I just hope your story can be known by more people, maybe in the future when the gods leave, you can walk on the earth instead of gods and guide people."
"Leave?"
Perseus felt vaguely uneasy about Zeus's words.
Greece is now in full swing, and no one can threaten the rule of Zeus. Why does Zeus have the plan to "leave"?
Or was there something that forced Zeus to leave?
But does such a thing exist?
"Perseus, this planet will face a huge challenge. At that time, not only the Greek gods, but all the gods will be involved, and the surviving gods will be few and far between. God will fall."
Zeus looked serious, this was the first time he told others about the crisis of the White Giant God in a cryptic way.
"You will fall? I don't believe it."
Perseus couldn't believe how the invincible Zeus could fall.
That is absolutely impossible.
No matter how bad the relationship was, Perseus would never believe such a thing.
"Then I'll take it as your blessing."
"Do the gods know about this?"
Perseus looked at Zeus's demeanor, but according to his observation, the gods didn't seem to know about it.
"A small part, so don't make a fuss. When it's time to make an announcement, I will tell you everything."
Telling this to Perseus was just Zeus' experiment. He hoped to see how people would react to such a crisis.
Zeus sincerely hopes that not only Greece, but the entire planet will have more heroes. In that era when the gods suffered heavy casualties, these heroes will temporarily take over the authority of the gods and lead mankind to a better future.
At least that's what Zeus expected.
And who is the next hero?
Zeus looked at Hercules who left with the golden apple, and also at the group of people who planned to follow Hercules. Is this the test Perseus intends to give Hercules?
It's just such a test, it's not a trial.
The real test...that is the great cause that everyone is blameless, not just repelling a few waves of thieves.
Chapter 250 Six: The Man Who Became the King of Heroes
Perseus died, the hero who defeated Gorgon died. At the moment of his death, almost all Greeks recalled his story.
Invisibility helmet, flying boots, flames, Gorgon head, pure white pegasus...
Although there were various stories about Perseus in the past, but at this moment, in everyone's hearts, that story is the only one left by a certain poet.
How enviable this is, when you die, the whole of Greece will remember your achievements, which makes countless kings envious, and countless strong yearning.
At the same time, another rumor began to spread. Although Perseus had an advantage in the last battle, his physical aging was inevitable. Although he won, he also died. After death, Perseus was reborn as a biological creature. Hughes gave a certain "treasure" to the challenger.
"Go for it, there are all the secrets of my becoming stronger, and I put everything there."
Hermes was talking about the hottest rumor in the land of Greece today, and the instigator of this rumor was the people around him.
"Dionysus, if you frame Hercules in this way and secretly expose yourself to eat his fist, I will not save you."
"Then it's fine as long as you don't expose it."
Dionysus didn't care at all that he made Hercules hunted down by the whole of Greece. He once heard Mr. Chiron say that Hera would make Hercules the strongest hero.
If this is the case, then he should be given enough trials. It is just a chase in the whole of Greece. As one of the two elder brothers who are most familiar with Hercules, Dionysus naturally understands that only such pressure can make him Hercules felt threatened.
"But these are some shrimp soldiers and crab generals, can they really pose a threat to Hercules?"
Hermes understood how strong his junior brother was, even though he was only 13 years old, he was already one of the few strong men in Greece.
