Amon had promised to cooperate with Zeus … to complete a pioneering undertaking! To foster a powerful city-state, punish Yaron and Gebados, unify the Helian peninsula in a real sense, and then cross the straits to the west to conquer the entire Persian Empire. Only gods like them dared to imagine such a grand undertaking.
This city-state would be chosen by Amon, as long as the main god that the city-state believed in was Zeus. Zeus and Amon would work together as "god" and "man" respectively to promote this matter. And Amon chose the Kingdom of Macedonia, a small state that would not only punish Yaron and Gebados, unify the Helian peninsula, but also attack the Potsdam Empire in the future.
It was not that whoever Amon chose would have this achievement, but that the Kingdom of Macedonia had the best potential, so Amon chose it. After making the agreement with Zeus, Amon had been acting as a mortal, waiting for an opportunity to rescue the mission led by Aristotle, and brought Medanzo to the Kingdom of Macedonia with the mission, and Zeus sent down an oracle at the right time.
Amon came to Macedonia, living in seclusion and not attracting attention. It seemed that he did nothing, but everything that happened was going according to the plan of the two gods. A god like Amon did things so mysteriously that everything seemed to happen intentionally or unintentionally, and he seemed to have done everything, pushing things forward at the most appropriate time in a way that people could not perceive.
Only by looking back and thinking about it carefully could one suddenly understand.
Macedonia, which was internally stable and had no strong enemies outside, had formed a brand-new legion.
With this legion as the main force, Philip II's first target turned out to be Delphi, the holy land of the Helian United Kingdom. Of course, the Olympian gods knew that Amon was in Macedonia, and as soon as Philip II went to war, even if the mortals did not know what Amon had done, the gods reacted.
This move of Zeus first touched the interests of some of the Olympian gods, and was about to break the pattern formed in the human world since the war of the gods. It attracted the opposition of a group of gods led by Apollo, so the messengers of the gods broke out in such a fierce battle in Delphi. While the Oracles fought fiercely in the human world, the Olympian gods quarreled fiercely in heaven. The gods were divided into three factions.
One faction was naturally led by Zeus, the Father of the Gods, and supported Zeus' decision. The other faction was led by Apollo and included seven of the twelve main gods of the Olympian pantheon. They had all followed Zeus and won the war of the gods. They all accused Zeus of "colluding" with Amon to intervene in the disputes of the human city-states, violating the interests of the gods, and violating the agreement.
There was also a faction led by Themis, the Goddess of Justice and Fairness. Most of them represented the ancient gods before the War of the Gods. They were relatively neutral and mediators of this conflict. Especially Themis, who had always played the role of the adjudicator of the disagreements of the gods in the Divine Kingdom. Zeus first proposed for the oracles on earth to stop fighting and wait for the gods to reach a new agreement. This proposal was supported by Themis, and Apollo and the others also agreed.
Apollo asked Zeus to disclose the agreement between him and Amon, as well as the purpose of the conflict, what role Amon played in it, and what was his purpose? This request was also supported by Themis.
Zeus then calmly told him everything. He told the gods his plan, which would bring greater benefits to the Olympian pantheon in the future, and what Marduc had done. Marduc came to the human world as Darius and invaded the Olympian pantheon with the purpose of integrating the divine realm. Only by unifying the Olympian pantheon could they retaliate against Marduc's invasion.
Zeus was not only retaliating for the sake of revenge, but for him, it was also a kind of confirmation. For the entire Olympian pantheon, this was the first invasion by another pantheon. If there was no counterattack, how could they prevent similar incidents from happening in the future? Moreover, this was also good for the Olympian pantheon, as it could shine the light of the gods all over the continent.
Zeus promised that with the expansion of the divine realm in the future, the gods would be able to guide their believers and oracles in a larger area of the human world, and obtain more divine realms. The losses in the internal disputes would be made up for in the external expansion.
The gods were persuaded by him and reached a compromise and a new agreement, so the emissaries of the human world left the battlefield.
The Olympian pantheon had reached an agreement to "unite against foreign enemies", and Zeus' goal was achieved. The rest was up to the Kingdom of Macedonia, and the gods would cooperate and help. Then there was one person who seemed very conspicuous and unnecessary, and that was Amon, who was still living in the Kingdom of Macedonia.
Amon did not come for the Olympian pantheon. He agreed to cooperate with Zeus to explore his own path of confirmation. He was another king of heaven, and if the Olympian pantheon wanted to seek benefits in the expansion, then the existence of Amon would be incompatible, and sooner or later there would be a conflict.
Now that Amon was in Macedonia, it would inevitably have an impact on the king of Macedonia. For example, Alexander had promised Medanzo, "If I can reach Eygut one day, I will personally offer sacrifices to His Highness Amun and rebuild the Temple of Isis!" If Amon was allowed to stay, the future achievements and benefits of the Olympian pantheon might be inexplicably stolen by Amon.
Even if Zeus could tolerate it, the Olympian pantheon would not agree. On the other hand, the pantheon pantheon had reached a compromise, and the conflict was transferred to the outside world. Amon had become a target of hatred for Apollo and others. After all, they had suffered heavy losses in this dispute. Even if they did not pursue Zeus, they could still pursue Amon.
So Apollo proposed to expel Amon from the divine realm of Olympus. Zeus objected because he had an agreement with Amon, and Amon did not violate it. The pantheon began to quarrel again, and Artemis, who represented the neutral side, made a ruling: Amon could not be expelled in the name of the Olympian pantheon, and the gods would deal with their own personal grievances and bear the consequences themselves.
Zeus, the father of the pantheon, also agreed with this ruling. When the pantheon reached a final agreement, Artemis came to remind Amon immediately. She had the most special relationship with Amon among the Olympian pantheon, and her situation was also the most awkward. So she came to see him as a girl and explained the situation with a straight face as soon as she entered.
Amon understood the whole story and said gratefully, "Thank you for coming to see me in this situation and telling me all this. Aren't you afraid of the gods' suspicions?"
Artemis said angrily, "What am I afraid of? You did not violate the agreement, and I cannot expel you in the name of the Olympian pantheon. The gods can only deal with it as a personal grievance. Based on our personal relationship, of course I have to remind you that even if someone is dissatisfied with you, they can't attack me. "
Tong Meng asked with a smile, "I'm a little curious. The battle between the gods on earth was so fierce, and many people died. And the gods in heaven have been arguing and negotiating, and did not do anything themselves? "
Artemis replied, "What's there to be curious about? When Zeus established the heavenly kingdom, he made the gods make an oath that they could not attack another god because of internal affairs. When the gods of this pantheon challenge the gods of other pantheons, they could not attack the gods of this pantheon.
When the gods of other pantheons challenge the gods of this pantheon, they could not help the gods of the other pantheon. "
Amon said, "This is very much like the covenant between the city-states of Khiton, and the Olympian pantheon is also like an alliance. Zeus did this very wisely, to prevent the gods of the pantheon from challenging his position, and to prevent the history of him defeating the previous god of creation and fusing the divine realm from happening again. "
Artemis nodded and said, "The Kingdom of Khiton is the realm of Olympus, and the city-states believe in the gods of Olympus. What happens on earth must reflect the scene in heaven, which is the source of a civilization." As for the oath that Zeus made the gods make, it was also a lesson learned from the war of the gods and the history of other pantheons. "
Amon said again, "But the gods still fight." Artemis explained, "Yes, the gods in heaven do not directly fight, but fight with the emissaries through the cities on earth."
Amon said thoughtfully, "War of agents? I came from the ancient town of Duc in the east. It is said that the continent is the center of the world, and Olympus is the new pantheon of the West. So what you are talking about is the tradition of the West? " The Olympian pantheon made a decision this time to shift the conflict and unite against the outside world. It seems to be the source of a habit to resolve internal differences by outward expansion. "
Artemis asked, "Have you seen the city-state republic of Yaron? It is very similar to the situation of the Olympian pantheon today. There is a saying you should have heard: "Yaron is the Yaron of the Yaron, the empire of the Khitons. People are not gods, they will act according to the guidance of the gods as they understand them, with their own desires. This kind of inheritance will still manifest in various forms even after thousands of years.
Amon, I am not here to discuss this with you, but to remind you that it is best to leave here first, soon someone will come looking for trouble. "
Amon shook his head and said, "I have not violated the agreement, why should I leave here? Isn't it good that you can see me here? We meet as mortals on earth. "
Artemis's face finally showed a gentle expression, and she held one of Amon's hands and said, "I heard that you have promised Zeus that the Olympian gods can enter your divine realm, and I can see you at any time, right?" But now the gods want to deal with you, even if they are not as powerful as you, they will use all kinds of methods and means. Since you can't act as a deity, you'll definitely suffer. Why do you still want to stay here? "
Amon still smiled and said, "Since I have promised to cooperate with Zeus, I will naturally encounter such things, and the test I have experienced is also part of the verification, how can there be no trouble? If there are no problems, why should I seek verification? The means that the Olympian gods used to deal with me are the test I have come here. You can say that I have only myself to blame, but I will not leave voluntarily, this is the price I must pay in the course of exploration. "
Artemis clenched Amon's hand and said with concern, "I am not here to persuade you to leave because the gods want to force you to leave, you have not fully understood what I mean. I have a feeling that Zeus is using you and scheming against you. I know this father of the gods better than you do, and you are seeking verification, and he is also seeking verification. "
At this point, Artemis did not continue, but imprinted a message into Amon's soul, telling him of her guess and judgment. Both Amon and Zeus had achieved achievements beyond the gods of creation and created their own divine realm. She did not know the name of this realm, and Artemis called it the "god of gods" according to the ancient prophecy of the Plains of Duc. But whether it was Zeus or Amon, they were faced with a potentially serious problem. What should they do if other gods in the divine system achieved the same achievements in the future?
In the ancient divine system, if a god also achieved the achievement of the God of Creation, they could break away from this divine system and no longer be bound by the oath. They could establish another divine kingdom and another divine system. For example, Seth's wish was like this.
But the situation of Zeus was different. He surpassed the gods of creation and achieved the achievement of the "god of gods", fused with the divine realm of the original god of creation, Unos, created the divine realm of Olympus, and made the gods make an oath to prevent similar situations from happening again. But if another god in the divine clan also achieved the achievement of the "god of gods", how could the two "gods of gods" coexist?
Zeus could not prevent another god from creating his own divine realm. If another divine realm was created in the eternal realm, it would lead to the division of the divine clan and violate the oath of the gods.
If it was extended and created in the original divine realm, it might no longer belong to Zeus completely, and it might also lead to the collapse of the divine realm, and it might even lead to the fusion of Zeus' divine realm.
The consequences of all this were unknown, and although the possibility of it happening at present was very small, it was not impossible in the long future. So Zeus had to seek a higher achievement, and this realm was his own divine realm, able to fuse or accommodate the same divine realm in some way.
But the gods' search for proof of an unknown realm was not groundless, otherwise Amon would not have come to the human world to explore. Wanting to fuse the same divine realm was like a person wanting to know if he could eat an apple? Then there needed to be an apple in the world for him to try. Now there were only two "apples" that Zeus could find, Amon and Marduc.
The "world of freedom" created by Marduc was quite different from the "divine realm of Olympus" created by Zeus, and it was obviously a search for proof of another path and could not be compatible. And Amon's "kingdom of angels" was very similar to Zeus' divine realm. Zeus and Amon cooperated to "deal with"
Marduc, wasn't he also thinking about Amon?
