Chapter 128: The Melancholy Prince of Troy

Views:

The city of Troy was originally built by Adros by ordering his three disciples, Tiresias, Autolycus and Sisyphus, for the child born to the nearby river god and his human wife. .

Adros once observed their sons to verify how the descendants of Zeus could become gods. Although he failed, Adros still built this city as a thank you gift.

Of course, at the beginning, this city was just built to give nearby humans a place to live.

On the beautiful grassland of Mount Ida, the young and handsome Trojan prince Ganymede lay here, looking at his friends playing next to him, his eyes full of melancholy and sentimentality.

He was the youngest son of Troos, the first king of Troy. He was deeply loved by the king. He hired the best teachers and guards for him since he was a child, and taught him gladiatorial combat, hunting and swimming in the warm sea.

However, when he was very young, his father Tros and brother Iros went to follow the famous Centaur hero Chiron to learn how humans became gods, and entrusted him to their much older nephew, Troy. Laomedon, the previous king of the city.

His nephew, King Laomedon, was a dishonest man. He defaulted on Poseidon, who helped Troy build the city wall, and Apollo, who helped Troy herd herds. Poseidon then sent sea monsters to wreak havoc on the city of Troy. So, desperate Laomedon tied Hesione to a rock in the sea as a sacrifice to the sea monster, hoping that Poseidon could appease Poseidon's anger.

At this time, Hercules was passing by after returning from an expedition to the Amazon. King Laomedon quickly asked for help and promised that as long as he rescued his daughter Hesione, he would give Hercules a group of beautiful horses. These horses were also a gift from Zeus to Laomedon's father Iros.

Hercules killed the sea monster and rescued Hesione, but Laomedon defaulted on the payment again and did not send horses. Heracles said some threatening words and left angrily.

Hercules' departure was not the end. Later, in order to avenge the king, he led a group of warriors to attack Troy. Hercules shot Laomedon and several of his sons to death, and only one son survived. and made prisoners.

Hesione was given to his good friend Telamon as a trophy by Hercules, and Heracles allowed her to choose one of the captives to be freed. Hesione chose her brother Podarchus and bought him with the valuable jewelry on his head as ransom.

After Podarchus returned to Troy, he was appointed as the new king of Troy by his helpless grandfather and great-grandfather. They had no choice, for they were not the powerful enemies of Hercules, but Podarkes, who became the king, was deeply ashamed and called himself Priam, meaning the one who was bought.

Whether it is Ganymede's father and brother, or his new king's grandnephew, they are constantly improving their strength in the hope of taking revenge on Hercules in the future.

However, Ganymede, who had relatively poor talent since childhood, was helpless. He was not even a legendary hero, let alone aspired to become a demigod.

While Ganymede was melancholy and meditating, there was sudden lightning and thunder in the sky, heavy rain poured down, and an eagle swooped down. Under the cover of wind and rain, the huge eagle came to Ganymede and gently captured the beautiful young man. The mentors and guards rushed over to stop them, and the hounds barked wildly; ignoring the chaos on the ground, the eagle and the boy rose higher and higher, disappearing into the blue sky.

The eagle did not notice that not far from these humans, there were two goddesses, a man and a woman, watching this scene happen.

Adros looked at this scene with a funny face, then looked at Hera who was ashen-faced, and said teasingly: "As expected of the God-King, this attack was quick and accurate. But that Trojan boy is really good-looking. , almost catching up with our beautiful God Queen."

Hera snorted, glanced at Adros, and then said lightly: "I'm going back to Olympus." Then, she turned around and flew away without saying another word.

"Then you have to hurry up, maybe you can still steal the stolen goods from your country."

Adros's teasing came from the Queen of Gods, and Hera couldn't help but curse in her heart.

After Hera left, Demeter walked out of Adros, as if appearing out of thin air.

Holding a lead short arrow and a black robe in her hand, she came to Adros and said with a sarcastic tone: "Is this your purpose? To sow discord between Zeus and Hera, what are you doing?" What do you want to do?"

Adros took the two divine objects and said in a sinister tone: "I'm talking about Aunt Demeter, it was your sister who attacked my own brother, and she has nothing to do with me."

Demeter's stern face suddenly fluttered, and she stretched out her delicate fingers and pinched Adros's face: "I really don't know how a child who was so cute back then has become so evil-minded now? "

Adros sighed and pretended to be serious: "Being in the Chaos God System, I don't have overwhelming strength. If I don't learn a little bit, I'm afraid I won't know how to die."

Demeter couldn't help but fell silent after hearing his words. Yes, if she had had enough strength or thought, she would not have been bullied by Zeus and the three brothers in turn.

Adros saw that Demeter was suddenly silent, with a trace of sadness in her eyes, and felt that something was wrong. He quickly stretched out his hand, took Demeter's soft little hand in his, and smiled gently at her.

"Don't worry, Aunt Demeter, no one will dare to bully you in the future."

When Demeter heard this, she also smiled in relief and gently hugged Adros in front of her.

This scene was seen by Poseidon on the beach. His eyes were gloomy, looking at the humans in the distance, and his heart was filled with anger. He was attracted by the lightning and thunder at the seaside and wanted to see what his god-king brother was up to. Unexpectedly, he saw his beloved sister Demeter, who had always ignored him. Now he is hugging a human being.

"That human is called Iathion. Originally, I didn't want to get involved in the matter between you and Zeus. But now, even if we join forces with Zeus, I must hang your body on my trident. "

Hera, the Queen of Gods who had arrived at Olympus, took out a crystal in her hand and looked at the scene in the crystal with a strange smile on her lips.

Hera raised her head and arrived at the door of Zeus' room. She was not in a hurry, and was waiting for the arrival of her mother Rhea, the goddess of time, and her aunt Themis, the Lord of Justice.

When the two Titan goddesses arrived, Hera didn't say anything. Under their puzzled eyes, she kicked open the door of Zeus' room.
