Supreme God

Chapter 145: The kidnapped gods of death and sleep

Views:

The gods of Olympus began to discuss the zodiac signs. Each god had a suitable candidate, and no one was willing to let go of this opportunity. Even Hades, the king of Hades who had been living in the underworld for a long time, immediately came to Mount Olympus after getting the news, hoping to get a share of this feast.

But the eighty-seven constellations seem to be a lot. If you really want to divide them up, each god will not be able to divide them into a few. The three kings headed by Zeus undoubtedly want as many places as possible to their names, but how can other gods agree

These gods may have divine attendants, or may have descendants in the human world. They are all trusted and favored by the gods, and they all hope that they can become gods with true divine powers.

Thus, a months-long quarrel began on Mount Olympus. After the quarrel and banquet, then quarrel again after the banquet. Perhaps this is the style of the Olympus gods.

They had not yet reached a final conclusion until Aeakos, the son of Zeus, who was sent to the underworld as a judge by him, boarded Olympus and told them a shocking news.

Aeacus was the son of Zeus and the river goddess Aegina, the father of Peleus and Telamon, and the grandfather of Achilles. Before he was born, due to the calculations of the goddess Hera, his mother, the river goddess Aegina, took poison prepared by Hera using the sand of the Styx, causing him to lose his divinity and become a demigod.

That is, before he was born, his maternal grandfather, the old river god Asopus, had issued an extremely vicious curse on the god king Zeus at the cost of his life. The angry god-king Zeus chopped the old river god into pieces at that time, and the huge pit still remains in the city of Thebes.

When Ajax was on earth, he was known for his fairness, so Zeus discussed with Hades, the king of Hades, to make him the first judge of the underworld. Under his judgment, the guilty will receive varying degrees of punishment in hell according to their crimes, while those who are innocent will be able to live a happy life with no worries about food and clothing in the beautiful and peaceful Elysee Paradise. Although the task was arduous, Ajax never tired of it.

But in the past few months, Ajax felt that his job seemed to be gone. For several months, no dead person came to the underworld to accept his judgment.

Ajax, who was puzzled, ran to the human world to check, and found that there was not a single dead person in the human world in the past few months.

Ajax, sensing something was wrong, quickly went to find Taratona, the god of death in the underworld, trying to find the answer from him.

But he searched both the human world and the underworld, but could not find this powerful God of Death. Even the twin brother of Death, Hypnos, the God of Sleep, also disappeared.

In desperation, Ajax, the judge of human souls, went to report the matter to Hades. But in Hades, only Persephone was there, and Hades had arrived in Olympus. The Queen of Hades was not interested at all in this situation in the human world and the whereabouts of the God of Death, Sleep, and waved him away.

Finally, Ajax went to Olympus and reported the news to the gods.

The gods just got tired of noisy and wanted to take a break, so they helped Hades, the king of Hades, to find the whereabouts of his first and most loyal two younger brothers.

Finally, it was the Queen of Gods, Zeus, who used the crystal of her artifact to shine on the remote city of Corinth, a country where no gods were sacrificed. In that country, all the residents sacrificed only two people, the dead prophet Iathion and the living King of Corinth, Sisyphus.

······

The palace in Corinth was designed and built by Sisyphus himself, but not long ago, this talented hero who was famous before the birth of new mankind renovated his palace.

The layout of the palace was greatly changed, especially the palace in the middle, which was given a strange shape. This palace has a triangular foundation, and then becomes narrower as it goes up. At the top, it directly becomes a pointed cone.

This tall building made of stone gives people a solemn feeling, as if this is not a palace for the living, but a tomb for the dead.

After the building was built, Sisyphus ordered that all the people who were dying nearby be moved to this building. Regardless of whether they agreed or not, Sisyphus only told them that this might be their tomb or their escape from the underworld.

Sisyphus began his daily work again. After inspecting the pointed triangular tower for a week, he opened the door and walked in.

Sisyphus was devastated when he heard that his teacher, Iathion the Prophet, had been beheaded by Olympus. But he did not lose his fighting spirit. He turned his grief into strength and decided to do something. Even if he died, he accepted it.

He sent all his people out to look for an old shepherd with a goatee. In his opinion, all his teachers were dead, and the only one who might be able to help him take revenge on the gods was the old man.

He had only seen the old man named Geb once, but Iacion once told him that this might be a god who had broken through the realm of the Lord God. Even the three kings of Olympus cannot compare with him.

It didn't take long for him to find the old man. Perhaps because he heard that Sisyphus was looking for him, Geb drove his goats directly to Corinth.

Hearing what Sisyphus wanted to do for his dead teacher, Gabe smiled strangely and didn't say much. He just asked Sisyphus's plan.

Then, under Geb's guidance, a strange building that was very different from all the palaces in the Chaos pantheon was born.

After the birth of this building, Gaib didn't stay long and left directly. He acted a little hastily, as if he was in a hurry to leave.

Sisyphus didn't care too much. He didn't know how long he could live after this was done. He didn't want to pay too much attention to Gabe's affairs, and it wasn't something he could pay attention to.

Walking into this minaret, the smell of death greets you, making you feel eerie. But Sisyphus had a smile on his face, and at his feet were some rotten bones lying in various directions.

Sisyphus didn't look much at the bones. They were all dying corpses that he drove in. He was not the one who killed the deceased, but he chose this particular cemetery for the deceased.

Strangely enough, even though corpses were everywhere, there was no corpse smell in this building.

When Sisyphus went further, he discovered something different. Among the ghosts he could always encounter in the past, he did not encounter any this time. But there was a slight tremor on the road underfoot.

As he followed the trembling, this feeling became more and more obvious, and when he walked through this passage and came to the empty main hall, or the main tomb, he finally discovered the source of the trembling.

In the center of the triangular foundation is a huge stone platform. On the stone platform, there are several people who are still alive and a dozen people who have died. Regardless of whether they are dead or not, their identities are the same. They were all legendary warriors with great reputations in the human world.

In the middle of the stone platform, there is a pair of twins, the most famous twins in the world, Taratona, the god of death, and Hypnos, the god of sleep. These two gods can be said to have been kidnapped here by Sisyphus.
