This chair also has a story, Hephaestus was born very ugly and lame, and Hera was disgusted and abandoned him. Fortunately, the ocean goddess Thetis and Eurynome rescued and raised him, and he returned to Olympus nine years later.
He was very dissatisfied with his mother Hera and tried to take revenge. After Typhon's Rebellion, all the gods came to Olympus, and he made a beautiful chair for Hera. Hera was very happy to receive her son's gift, but as soon as she sat on it, the delicate chair was stuck to the straps, unable to move, and no one could untie it.
For a moment, Hera's embarrassment was seen by all the Olympus gods. After the mediation of Poseidon, the god of the sea, Hephaestus finally let go of Hera, and the mother and son reconciled.
Hera kept this exquisite chair in her palace as a witness to the reconciliation of mother and son.
"Adross, I thought about it and decided to forget about my transaction this time." Hera's eyes flickered and she looked at the proud Adross with a smile.
Adros was originally looking at Hera with a smile on his face, who was embarrassed by his teasing. Suddenly, when he saw her expression change, she even said that she wanted to cancel the transaction. He immediately said in a panic: "No, look at the sand of the Styx. I will help you." You brought it, so cancel it anyway." After saying that, he took out the bag Styx gave him and handed it to Hera.
Unexpectedly, Hera shook her head and did not pick up the bag. She just pursed her lips and smiled: "I suddenly felt that I don't have to have this sand."
"No, look at our Lord God King, who is looking for a lover outside every day. Even I can't stand it anymore. As the queen of gods, the most noble and beautiful goddess in heaven and earth, how can I endure it? I must give it to him A little lesson." Although he knew that Hera was deliberately trying to tease him, Adros had no choice but to say good things when he asked for help. And God King Zeus has undoubtedly become the best example for him to please Hera.
After hearing this, Hera's eyes were filled with smiles, and her eyes narrowed into two crescent moons: "The most noble and beautiful, more beautiful than Aphrodite?"
"Of course. Although Aphrodite is also beautiful, she can't compare to your noble temperament. We, the God King, don't know how to cherish it, and we actually go out to find others. We really have no discernment at all."
Adros, who looked flattering, had no idea that this so-called other person also included his mother, the black-robed goddess Leto. But Hera was very happy after hearing this, and her eyes burst into laughter.
"Okay, because your kid can talk, I'll make an exchange with you." After Hera finished speaking, she also grabbed Adros's face a few times and felt Adros's helpless gaze.
"Come with me."
Hera took Adros to a large and empty room in her palace. In the center of the room was a stone platform. On the stone platform, there was a huge white lightning that kept changing its shape. Sometimes it turns into a thunderbolt in the sky, sometimes it turns into a rolling ball, sometimes it turns into a cow and horse neighing, sometimes it looks like a dragon or snake waving its head. Around it, within a hundred steps radius, thunder continued to fall.
The outermost layer of thunder is huge and dazzling, as if it is the judgment of the end of the world, which makes people feel intimidated. However, the further you looked inside, the thunder became smaller and smaller. When you got to the side of the huge white lightning, there were only three or two tiny electric wires, streaking through the space from time to time.
"Is this the artifact 'Thunder and Lightning'?"
Adros murmured to himself, seeing these countless lightnings, he suddenly felt humble, as if this lightning was a punishment from heaven, and his crimes would be judged in front of it. If a thunderbolt were to come, it would seem inevitable.
"Yes, after the Battle of the Titans, the divine weapon fell into the arms of Zeus, so the gods made him the God King." Hera said leisurely, seeming to miss the battle a hundred years ago.
"Didn't it say that the God King is decided by drawing lots?"
Hera sneered: "Can you also believe that the characters of Hades and Poseidon would give up the position of God King just because of a draw of lots? It was just that Zeus had not completely refined this thunder and lightning, and was worried that it would appear. It was unexpected, so I asked the gods to spread the news.”
So it turns out that Hades's failure to become the God King was not just bad luck, but God's will.
"Okay, I'll leave the thunder and lightning to you. With your strength, it is estimated that it will be difficult to get close to the central area, but remember not to use divine power to touch the central area. Zeus has set up a divine ban there. Once touched, it will immediately It will release the source of thunder, directly hitting the divine body and soul, and there is no way to avoid it." Hera ordered with a serious face.
"Where is the divine body? Can I touch it?" Hearing Hera say that divine power cannot touch it, Adros subconsciously thought about what would happen if the divine body was touched.
"If you have such a strong body, you can give it a try." Hera smiled faintly: "It should be a little more terrifying than the divine touch." She knew that Adros wanted to use thunder to temper his body, but she didn't think he Can hold up to the "Thunder and Lightning" center.
"Don't worry, I'm sensible. You can go about your business. Zeus will have a few more lovers later."
Helena rolled her eyes at him for a moment, then snorted coldly, swayed her soft waist, and walked out, leaving Adros here alone.
After she left, Adros looked at the endless thunder within a hundred steps and couldn't help but feel happy. Since the last time he practiced the Wu Clan's mysterious skills for a while in the red copper veins of the human world, he has never found a suitable place for him to practice.
He later learned from Demeter that Zeus had a magical weapon called "thunder and lightning", but unfortunately he never had the chance to get it. This time, taking advantage of Hera's request for the Sands of the Styx, she was finally able to use the endless power of thunder to refine her body.
Slowly walking into the range enveloped by thunder, Adros was very cautious. He was not sure whether he could withstand such a level of thunder. After all, it looks so majestic from the outside.
"ah······"
As soon as he entered it, Adros couldn't help but scream. The thunder struck him, causing his skin and flesh to burst open, causing him great pain. The power coming from the thunder made his body and soul numb, as if it was pain, and after the pain, he felt slightly happy.
Being in it, he couldn't help but think that people with masochistic tendencies might feel a little bit like this when they self-mutilate. The relief brought by pain makes people want to try it again.
He didn't think too much at the moment and began to sit cross-legged on the ground, using the Wu Clan Xuan Gong given to him by Shi Xuan Ming, using the endless power of thunder to refine his body.
About half a month later, Adros felt that the marginal power of thunder could no longer bring him any help, so he got up and took a few steps inside.
The new thunder rolled down. Although it was a little smaller, it was indeed more powerful, allowing him to once again enjoy the heart-wrenching feeling of being hit by thunder. After receiving a few blows, Adros quickly calmed down and practiced his mysterious skills silently.
In this way, Adros faced the "thunder and lightning" in the palace of Hera behind him. From the outside to the inside, he tried the power of the thunder step by step and tempered his body step by step.
······
The old river god Asopus felt very painful and helpless. He had always been proud and happy of so many innocent and lovely daughters, and he loved them even more. However, the mysterious disappearance of his daughters one by one made him extremely sad. He had searched many places and asked passers-by or gods about their whereabouts, but he did not get any information.
He finally learned the news about his infant daughter from King Sisyphus of Corinth. The lustful god-king Zeus transformed into an eagle and captured her last daughter. He gave the King of Corinth a clear spring that would never dry up, and then he learned the whereabouts of the eagle.
The river god Asopus chased Zeus desperately, but Zeus not only failed to put his daughter down, but instead used thunder and lightning to crush one of his legs, and took his daughter to an unknown place.
The old river god could only sigh on the earth, constantly looking for his daughter, and cursing the powerful god-king Zeus, but his curse had no effect at all.
During this period, Asopus searched everywhere he could, but found nothing, and finally came to the city of Thebes to seek help. His brother Lykos is the river god here, and he is also a city lord of the cities of Thebes.
Thebes is different from other places. Many gods and legendary heroes have chosen this place and each established their own kingdom. And Lykos is one of the lords of the kingdom.
"Why don't you go to the temple of Queen Hera and ask for help from Queen Hera. She is also very dissatisfied with Zeus's behavior and will definitely help you." Seeing Asopus looking helpless, Lykos, the lord of Thebes, made such a suggestion to her.
With a thought in his mind, Asopus felt that it made sense, so he came to Hera's temple and told the queen his pain, hoping that the queen could help him.
"Asopos, I can tell you where your young daughter Aegina is. But in return, you need to give her this potion to drink." The God Queen Hera appeared and made a request to Asopos. .
"Excuse me, great queen of the gods, what kind of medicine is this?" Asopos could not easily agree to Hera's conditions. This medicine might kill his daughter. Because he knew very well that among the gods, it was difficult to find someone more jealous than Hera.
"I can only tell you that this medicine will not harm her at all. If you agree, take this bottle of medicine away. After you give this bottle of medicine to Aegina, I can even tell you another The price for her daughter Antiope's whereabouts is to make her take the same medicine." Hera put down the medicine and left the temple. She believed that Asopus, who missed his daughter so much, would not refuse.
Sure enough, Asopus thought for a long time, took the bottle of medicine in his hand, and walked out of Hera's temple with difficulty. In order to find his daughter, he had no choice. If Hera wanted to kill his daughter, there was no need to use this method.
