When the goddess of the hunt used her divine power to capture Agamemnon's daughter and send her to one of her seaside temples, she herself was waiting here.
Then, she told Iphigenia to leave the newly built temple to her.
Iphigenia was extremely pleasantly surprised. She originally thought that she was captured by the gods to pay for the sacred deer killed by her father. Unexpectedly, the goddess of hunting not only did not kill her, but also made her a sacrifice.
Artemis looked at Iphigenia, who was beaming with joy, and waved her hand to summon the divine attendant, asking her to teach the young girl.
Just after the attendants took Iphigenia away, Artemis was about to leave when she suddenly heard someone exclaiming: "Goddess Artemis, please wait for me."
A man walked over from the seaside. He was more handsome than all the gods Artemis had ever seen. He also had a delicate temperament that made people fall in love with him upon seeing him.
"Who are you?"
Although the other person was extremely handsome, Artemis still looked at him with a dull expression.
The handsome young man pointed at himself and introduced to the goddess in front of him: "My name is Orion. I am the son of Poseidon, the sea god. I heard that Agamemnon and Achilles' group were disrespectful to the goddess, so I came here to ask. Goddess, you need me to help you teach them a lesson."
Then, he stared at Artemis with a blazing look, as if the hunting goddess had become the only one in his eyes.
Artemis glanced at him and finally remembered that this was the god of the constellations that Poseidon, the king of the sea, had appointed, Orion among the eighty-eight constellations.
She left without saying a word. Her own affairs had nothing to do with him. Even if she found someone to take action, it would not be his turn.
Orion watched Artemis leave with an extremely gentle look, full of infatuation that could make any goddess or woman panic.
But Artemis was not an ordinary goddess. She didn't even look back before she left.
"How about it? Our hunting goddess is not so easy to conquer, right?"
After Artemis left, a beautiful and teasing voice appeared behind Orion, and then a pair of jade arms wrapped around his body.
Orion turned back and glanced at the goddess of dawn who was obsessed with him, and then looked at the direction Artemis was leaving with a far-away look: "You are right, this goddess of hunting has both appearance and temperament. It's so tempting. I'm starting to look forward to seeing how I can take her down. And I don't know what the goddess of wisdom, Athena, who has the same name as her and is one of the two favorite daughters of the God King, has. style."
Just as Orion finished speaking, a golden arrow suddenly struck him and passed through him. He struggled painfully and then slowly collapsed to the ground. He looked towards the direction where the golden arrow was shot. A young god with black hair was holding a silver bow in his hand and smiled at him. Next to the black-haired god, there was also a cold-haired god standing, looking at him like he was looking at a dead man.
Thinking of this, Orion really died. Eos, the goddess of dawn next to him, didn't even react, but his face was covered with splashes of blood.
"Adros, Apollo, it's you, why did Orion offend you, do you want to shoot him?"
Eos's beautiful voice suddenly became shrill, as if the two brothers would not let her leave without giving her an explanation.
However, both Apollo and Adros just glanced at her coldly, saw that Orion was indeed dead, and left without saying a word.
On the way out, Apollo took the silver bow handed over by Adros and asked doubtfully: "Isn't it the same if I shoot him to death and you shoot him to death? Why do you want to snatch the bow and arrow away?"
He and Adros were just about to find his sister Artemis to complete that important task, but they heard that the Greek coalition forces were nearby, so they decided to come over and take a look.
From the quarrel of the human heroes to the sacrifice of Agamemnon's daughter, to the scene just now, they all watched it. Hearing that Orion dared to covet his sister like this, Apollo couldn't bear it anymore. He drew his long arrow and was about to kill Orion, but Adros snatched him away.
Adros smiled: "Of course it's different. If you do something, Sister Artemis will say you are nosy, but if I do something, she will only praise me."
"Haha, Orion, I originally wanted to kill you slowly, but now that I have encountered you, let's just die." Adros thought maliciously.
Apollo was stunned when he heard what Adros said, but it was right to think about it. His position in the heart of his sister Artemis could not be compared with that of this little guy. Since childhood, Artemis has always liked Adros more than him, and Apollo has nothing to do about it.
After they left, Poseidon, the king of the sea, came to the place where Orion died. The waves rolled up overwhelmingly, directly submerging all the nearby beaches.
"Who dares to kill my son of Poseidon?"
But when he saw the golden arrow stuck in Orion's body, he fell silent and asked Orion, the goddess of dawn, next to him: "Is it Apollo?"
The silver bow and golden arrows are the weapons of Apollo; and the golden bow and silver arrows are the weapons of Artemis. All gods and humans know this very well.
A few years ago, the rude mortal Niobe, the wife of King Amphion of Thebes, spoke loudly in front of everyone and mocked the mother of Apollo and Artemis, the black-robed goddess Leto. In the end, she and all the children of King Thebes were killed by the gold and silver bows and arrows.
The children's grandfather, Zeus, the king of the gods, didn't even say a word about it.
Thinking of this, Poseidon was secretly angry. The hatred of Antaeus being killed by Hercules last time has not been resolved. This time, another son of his died in the hands of Zeus's son, but he was helpless. Zeus would not allow Hercules, the demigod, to take revenge, let alone Apollo, the god of light.
"It's not Apollo, it's his brother, Adros, the husband of Aphrodite."
The words of Eos, the goddess of dawn, made Poseidon's expression change.
I can't touch your talented sons. But you can’t stop this son with mediocre talent who was driven off Mount Olympus from me if I make trouble for him, my brother the God King.
As for the consequences of touching Adros, the most it would be is war with Apollo, Artemis and Aphrodite. As the king of the ocean, Poseidon is fearless.
······
At night, the silver moonlight spreads across the earth, making it extremely quiet.
Selene, the moon goddess, has a golden halo above her head, riding a carriage pulled by two divine horses through the night sky, wandering in the boundless night.
It has been a long time since Selene moved around in the night sky so happily, and she has been having a lot of troubles lately.
The discussion about the God of the Constellations in Olympus finally ended in a commotion. Although Selene had been watching, she was also assigned a priesthood.
She had already decided to give this priesthood to her nephew Phaethon, the son of the sun god Helios. Although that naughty child has the same name as his other nephew, a son of the dawn goddess Eos, he is far less mature than him.
Some time ago, this nephew of the Sun God even thought about driving the sun chariot for his father. It was so naive. The sun flames on this sun chariot are enough to make most gods retreat, let alone a demigod like him.
This was not what worried her the most. Phaethon wanted to drive the sun chariot, but it was just a dream. I believe he himself would understand the pros and cons and give up this idea.
Selene's sister, Eos, the goddess of dawn, really worries Selene.
Eos doesn't know what's going on recently, he keeps looking for handsome men in the world, and has sex with them. She looked for one after another, as if she would not get bored. Her husband, who had taken refuge in the ancient Poseidon, and was also her cousin, the Titan god Astraeus, looked angry and helpless.
But no matter what method he used, he could not dispel Eos' behavior that made the gods laugh. Since Hyperion, the lord of the sky, and his wife have closed the palace door and are studying how to break through the main gods, Astraeus can only come to Eos' brother and sister, the two main gods who are in charge of the sun and the moon respectively. .
After some inspections, several gods learned that Eos had offended Aphrodite, the god of love and beauty, and they probably knew that Eos had fallen into Aphrodite's trap.
Just knowing that they knew it, they had no way to solve it. They could only hope that they would have the opportunity in the future to ask Aphrodite to solve this problem personally.
Thinking of this, Selene couldn't help but think of her lover Endymion, who was also a human being, but unfortunately fell into eternal sleep.
There was nothing she could do about it. She loved Endymion's handsome face so much, and wished he could live forever like herself. But the personal experience of his sister Eos told him that humans cannot obtain immortality, just like Eos once asked Zeus to make her favorite beautiful boy Tithonus immortal. Zeus agreed to her request, but the beautiful boy Tithonus could not bear the power that made him immortal, and directly became an immortal cricket, which made Eos sad for a long time.
With the lesson of Eos, Selene took matters into her own hands and put him into eternal sleep in order to preserve her lover's beautiful face. In this way, Selene can have this beautiful face forever.
Just wandering freely in the night sky, her mind wandering wildly, suddenly, the moon goddess Selene found that her car seemed to be stuck in a quagmire and could no longer move.
She reacted quickly, raised her eyes and looked around, but didn't find anything different, but her moon carriage just couldn't move forward.
