Zeus stared at Amon and said, "You have angered the Olympian gods, and we have ended our cooperation. If you want to establish such a new covenant, when the Olympian gods expand, they will annex your divine realm and destroy your temples. The world's worship of Amun may no longer exist, are you willing to bear the consequences? " Amon smiled. "Zeus, I know your plan. This plan is carried out by our cooperation. Now that the situation has changed, the plan is still in progress. Do you think Alexander will do that on earth? "Zeus snorted coldly." Alexander may not be like this, but he will not be the emperor forever.
Since it was Potsdam and then Macedonia that ruled the continent, there will be new empires to replace them.
I have proved this method on earth, so I can naturally do it again. But once your divine realm on earth is annexed, your faith and inheritance will disappear completely, and it will be almost impossible to restore it. Look at Horus today, his situation may be your situation tomorrow. "Amon frowned." Zeus, are you declaring war on me by saying such words? " Zeus shook his head. "When you killed the emissaries, it was already a declaration of war, and I am here to make a final negotiation with you. The war on earth is decided by the people, and it is almost impossible for the gods to come to the battlefield in person. I am here today to tell you that you and your kingdom of angels should accept this fate, and it will become an island in immortality. "Amon said in a deep voice." Did you not hear what I just said? I will be my guide, you will be your guide, and let the people choose for themselves. This is the agreement I made with the gods in heaven, and also with the people of the world. I will not inherit the ancient promise of the Anunnaki and the Ennead. " Zeus: "From now on, you cannot kill the Olympian gods and emissaries in my divine realm."
Amon shook his head. "I don't care whose divine realm this is, and I will not make such an agreement with you. If I kill the Olympian gods or emissaries in your divine realm, I will bear the consequences. You just have to decide what you want. "
Zeus: "That is a direct conflict between the gods, have you considered the consequences? Even if you are the king of heaven, you must face the challenge of the Olympian gods. You cannot avoid it! " Amon replied without batting an eyelid, "If it's a conflict between gods, of course I can't avoid it, because in my Kingdom of Heaven, I am the only god, and I will face it personally. I will not renew the old pact with you. The Olympian gods will pay for what they have done. You can carry out your plans in the human world … Even if all of my shrines are destroyed, I will not hesitate. What you seek is the pinnacle of a quasi-Golden Immortal, while my wish is to transcend ghost cultivation. We both have our own desires. " As he spoke, Amon imprinted the situation of Hua and Goumang's debate into the souls of Pythagoras and Zeus through message magic.
Although there was conflict between the gods, this conflict did not prevent them from communicating calmly. Pythagoras shrugged. "Zeus, you can't convince Amon." Without saying a word, Zeus stood up and left. His negotiations with Amon had broken down. Amon was not willing to abide by the traditional pact between the old pantheons about the divine realm, and he even wanted to abandon the concept of the divine realm. If any of the Olympian gods met Amon again, they would probably be killed by him. This was what they had done in the past. Once Amon did this, he would face a direct challenge from the gods, and the consequences would be unpredictable.
Pythagoras sighed. "Amon, you will be a different god. I'm afraid it won't be easy for you to transcend the foundation and soil that gave birth to you. Even if you succeed, I'm afraid the believers in the human world will still live in that spiritual stream. …
Amon stood up and bowed to Pythagoras. "Sir, I understand this, but this is my vow." Zeus left the Pythagorean manor, stepped into the void, and returned to Olympus with an angry look on his face. The divine emissaries who came after Amon had quietly retreated, and did not stay outside the Pythagorean manor to spy on them. There were originally six gods in the sky, but at this time, four had left, leaving only Aphrodite and Hermes.
In the fierce battle on the outskirts of Delphi, these two gods lost the most divine emissaries. Of the twelve divine emissaries killed by Amon, nine were guided by them. Why was this so? On the one hand, it was because these two gods had contributed the most to the exclusion and coercion of Amon. Aphrodite had even personally come to the human world as an ordinary girl, Helen, to sow discord, and later shot Alexander with the Arrow of Love. And it was Hermes who sent an oracle to assign Aesop to Delphi as an emissary of the city of Miduli.
On the other hand, the divine emissaries they sent were also relatively weak in combat, and Amon's close combat assassination was, of course, to find the weakest point of the line. It was not that these divine emissaries were not strong enough in combat, because the gods who guided them were not particularly good at fighting. Although they also had the achievements of the Creator, Hermes and Aphrodite were the two weakest of the twelve gods of Olympus.
They had the deepest grudge with Amon, and this grudge was one-sided. Amon had never taken the initiative to provoke these two gods, especially Hermes. Especially Hermes, when Amon was still managing the farms in the city of Miduli, this god had entered Aesop's shop and asked about the price of the statues, trying to sound him out. Knowing his identity, Aesop certainly would not fall for his trap, but he did not treat him as a god either.
(
Note … Refer to Chapter 290, The Ordinary World.)
Later, when Aesop was telling a story to the people in the temple square, Hermes appeared again and made a request to Aesop: "Although you have your god in your heart, can't you go to the temple like others to offer sacrifices to Hermes? Even if you don't contribute your belongings, just participate in the ceremony. That way, you will be more popular. " Aesop, on the other hand, told the story of "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" and cleverly rejected Hermes, leaving the god speechless. (Note: Refer to Chapter 318, The Wolf Is Coming.)
As the patron of the city of Miduli, why would Hermes target Aesop, and eventually lead to such a grudge with Amon? It was not entirely because Aesop did not believe in him, the patron god. The city of Miduli was greedy, selfish, cunning, and on the surface, they believed in the gods, but their hearts were full of sin.
There were many people who blasphemed and offended the gods, and Hermes was not ignorant of the ways of the world. Why would he bother with a kind and amiable old man?
In fact, as soon as Aesop returned to Miduli, he had a silent encounter with Hermes, sowing the seeds that would sprout in the future.
When Aesop first returned to Miduli, his cousin, Raide Ackerman, thought that the stranger was here to seize the family property. Moreover, after 60 years, the last time Raide saw Aesop, he was only a child in his teens. Indeed, he could not confirm the old man's identity. So, Aesop asked the city's citizens to make a ruling.
There was a ceremony at the scene of the ruling. Under the leadership of two priests, Thales represented the people of the city and prayed to the gods for the arrival of an oracle. "People of Miduli, the old man in front of you has returned from a foreign land. That place has not received the light of the gods, so the gods will not prove his identity. He needs to prove it himself." Hermes gave an oracle. "People of Miduli, the old man in front of you has returned from the foreign land.
Hermes should know who Aesop was, but he refused to prove Aesop's identity and gave the ruling to the city's citizens' assembly. He could not say that he was wrong to do so, and he did not lie. But in the eyes of a mortal like Aesop, since the patron god had already made such a statement, it did not matter if he did not believe in this god.
And the most important way for Aesop to prove his identity was to ask someone to turn over the stone slab at the bottom of the old house's door. The back of the stone slab was engraved with Hermes' scepter. This was an architectural custom in Miduli. When building a house, the symbol of the patron god would be left in a secret place. In ancient legends, if this secret was revealed to the demons, they would lose the protection of the patron god.
Only the heir of the Ackerman family would know such a secret. When Aesop opened the stone slab in front of everyone, everyone no longer had any doubts about his identity. In fact, with Aesop's wisdom, he could have used other means to prove his identity, but he chose to use this method, which could also be seen as a silent response to Hermes's oracle. (Note: Refer to OP289 of this book, The Man Closest to God.)
Later, when Aesop rebuilt the old house, Amon hired craftsmen to repair it as a servant. He even asked Aesop if he should find a secret place to leave the symbol of the Patron in accordance with the tradition of the city of Meduri. Aesop said that it was not necessary. He just left the stone slab engraved with Hermes' scepter where it was.
Hermes was very clear about this unnoticeable detail. By doing so, Aesop was a silent contempt for the patron god of the city. It was also tantamount to telling Hermes that he did not need the protection of the patron god of the city. The stone slab that was opened and put back was like a mortal laughing at the gods. In Hermes's view, it was also a kind of blasphemy and offense, but it made him speechless. That was why the things that happened later happened.
Today, seeing Amon killing all the oracles and rushing into the Pythagoras Manor, and then Zeus also went there, the other gods left. Such a conflict could only be resolved by a personal dialogue between the two lords of the divine kingdom. But Hermes and Aphrodite did not leave. They wanted to see what would happen with their own eyes. Perhaps Amon would fight with Zeus, because he had just killed so many oracles. If that was the case, Amon would definitely not have a good end!
Now that they had formed a deep grudge with this powerful god, even though it was caused by their own actions, they did not want Amon to leave safely. So they stayed here to watch the movements in the Pythagoras Manor, only to see Zeus leave angrily.
Hermes frowned and said to Aphrodite, "What agreement did the father of the gods make with Amon? Why did he leave with an angry face? " Aphrodite also frowned and said, "Amon is not easy to deal with. You saw how ruthless he was just now, and he had no intention of negotiating with us at all. Even if the father of the gods went, it would be impossible to have a pleasant talk with him. " Hermes: "But a new covenant must be made between the two pantheons. The cooperation between Amon and Zeus has been suspended, and we need to talk about the matters between the pantheons. I guess the agreement made Zeus very unhappy." Aphrodite: "Amon got lucky today. He actually knew about the Pythagoras Manor and ran there to wait for Zeus to negotiate. It was Artemis who told him. No wonder he killed so many oracles without saying a word. It turned out that he knew where he could escape. He didn't talk with us, but waited for Zeus to come. Killing the oracles was a demonstration to us! "
Hermes: "We can't keep him anymore. Zeus has left. Why hasn't he left? In Pythagoras's manor, he could step into the void and return to his heavenly kingdom, while we could only watch helplessly. Since Zeus allowed him to leave like this, he must have reached a new agreement! "
Look, he's out. …
At this time, the sky was already turning white, and the stars were gradually dimming. Dawn was coming. Amon walked out of the hut, and Hermes and Aphrodite in the sky immediately noticed him.
But Zeus had already left, obviously allowing Amon to leave calmly. Even if the two gods were unwilling, they could only stare.
However, Amon did not step into the void. Instead, he turned into a golden light and shot straight into the sky. By the time Hermes reacted, the Key of Fate had already stabbed straight at him. Under different circumstances, Hermes would not have let Amon succeed in such a sneak attack, but he never dreamed that Amon would not leave under such circumstances and even rush into the sky to assassinate him. It was precisely because of this carelessness that when he was talking to Aphrodite just now, his position in the sky was exposed and discovered by Amon.
After all, Hermes also had the achievement of a Creator, and in his shock, he had already taken out his staff. A towering tree appeared in the air. Two giant green snakes on the tree pounced towards Amon from both sides, but he was nowhere to be seen. Hermes was not like the Oracles that Amon had killed. He was not made of flesh and blood. Although he could not dodge the attack of the Key of Fate, he used his staff to block the attack and summoned Aphrodite in his soul.
Hurry up and attack! Amon is crazy!
Seeing that Amon had suddenly rushed forward to attack Hermes, Aphrodite pulled out her belt in horror and swung it at Amon. The belt turned into a rainbow in the air, and with the power to charm the soul, it wrapped around Amon's body. At the same time, she flew backward and summoned Hermes to escape.
With a muffled "bang", the Key of Fate pierced the towering tree. The tree exploded into green light and reverted to the appearance of a scepter, falling from the clouds. The two giant snakes had just wrapped around Amon's body, and the golden light around Amon's body was like an invisible barrier. Cracking sounds could be heard as the snakes wrapped around him. As the tree exploded, the divine spell was broken, and the two giant snakes disappeared.
Hermes didn't have the time to retract his scepter. Amon's attack was too swift. His body staggered back amidst the explosion of green light, while the Key of Destiny shot out countless rays of golden light that wrapped around him. Countless dazzling lightning bolts came from the golden lights, and the heaven and earth shook. Hermes was instantly turned into ashes, and this hastily fought God fell just like that.
Perhaps Amon could not be blamed for being too vicious and too strong. It was Hermes who was too careless. Moreover, he was not good at fighting, but he had the deepest grudge with Amon. Amon came because of Aesop's death, and Aesop's death could be said to have been caused by Hermes. Since Amon had already attacked, he would not only kill the demigods who were under his control.
A god's body was their heart, and they were different from mortals. Amon could not use the Key of Fate to assassinate Hermes like a normal lance, so he used a more powerful method this time. It wasn't that Amon had never slain a Creator before. Seth had once fallen at Amon's hands, and in terms of fighting to the death, Hermes was still a long way off from Seth.
Amon had killed Hermes, and Aphrodite's attack had just begun. The rainbow light surrounded him, and he only felt a strange fragrance invading his soul. This fragrance could no longer be described as the fragrance of the mortal world, and it was also a supreme pleasure for a god. It was as if the deepest desire in the soul had been awakened and satisfied. Indulging in this state, one would not even want to think or do anything. It was the most ecstatic feeling in the world.
In this situation, Aphrodite naturally used her most powerful and best attack. Although it was not very damaging, it was an excellent means of cooperation. If Hermes could take the opportunity to launch a counterattack, Amon, who was surrounded by the rainbow light, would definitely be very passive. Unfortunately, Hermes had already fallen.
If Aphrodite's method could completely charm Amon's soul, she could also launch an extremely harmful attack. Unfortunately, Amon did not give her this opportunity. In just a breath's time, Amon, whose body and mind were in extreme ecstasy, let out a low roar, and a golden fist passed through the rainbow light and hit Aphrodite's chest.
Aphrodite had already seen Hermes fall, so of course, she did not dare to fight Amon. She only hoped that the rainbow light could entangle her for a while so that she could escape. Her figure had already flown far away. The fist disappeared, and immediately after, a giant golden hand appeared in the direction that Aphrodite flew in. The giant hand fiercely grabbed Aphrodite's beautiful body in the palm of its hand.
The rainbow light that filled the sky disappeared, and Amon turned into a golden giant standing in the clouds. He grabbed Aphrodite with his left hand, and raised the Key of Fate with his other hand, aiming at her.
Aphrodite was held in Amon's palm, and her entire body was wrapped in an enchanting light. This light trembled and cried, as if it would be crushed by Amon's fingers at any time. Seeing that the Key of Fate was already aimed at her, Aphrodite suddenly let out a long cry, and her belt returned to her body. Then, the rainbow light exploded between Amon's fingers, and the belt and dress turned into a surge of magic power and dissipated.
