Because of the severe headache, Zeus slowly couldn't stand up straight.
Half lying on the ground, he began to roar loudly uncontrollably, behaving like a mad lion, roaring and hitting the ground frantically with his head, trying to cover up the rush in his head with another kind of severe pain Swelling feeling coming out.
But this kind of action was in vain. Zeus's headache became more and more serious with the passage of time, and it was never relieved, but his body became weaker and weaker due to the pain. Lifting the ground to where Aphrodite was, she gritted her teeth and called out, "Mother Earth... find her!"
Aphrodite looked at Zeus silently, her eyes narrowed into long arcs, she stood there without moving, she didn't care if her clothes were scratched, she just watched Zeus struggle in pain.
Zeus was tortured to the point of madness by the pain. Seeing that Aphrodite did not move, his eyes were about to burst.
Aphrodite stopped in front of him, kicked him lightly with her toes, and said without emotion: "Your Majesty, you look so miserable in pain."
Zeus stared at him, half of his soul was suffering from pain, generally roaring Aphrodite's disrespect and contempt.
Aphrodite stepped back a little, came out of this small garden with no one else, grabbed a little nymph, and said coldly: "It seems that something happened to the king of gods, go and invite the mother of the earth, the king of gods Need her help."
The little nymph nodded in horror, and Aphrodite saw that she heard it, so she returned to the place where she had a secret conversation with Zeus.
It's just that he was worried that if he was too close to Zeus, he would be affected by him, so he deliberately stopped at a far place, watching Zeus' weak struggle with cold eyes.
And the little nymph who was given orders by Aphrodite was inexperienced. Although she heard Aphrodite's orders clearly, she was at a loss as to what to do.
She flapped her transparent wings and flew outside the Temple of the Earth Mother. She wanted to go in but was afraid of the majesty of the Primordial God, so she kept flying around outside the temple anxiously.
But because of Zeus roaring outside the Temple of Light and taking Aphrodite away, many gods came out of the temple, waiting for what would happen to those two troublesome highnesses .
When the gods were whispering outside the temple, the Nymph fairies consciously returned to their natal trees to stay in order to prevent them from accidentally offending these not-so-generous gods and calling for punishment.
Under such circumstances, the nymph fairy who kept circling the gate of the Gaia Temple became particularly eye-catching.
Apollo came out of the temple with a harp in his hand. His golden curly hair was shining like gold in the sun, and he walked to the Nymph Fairy with a gentle smile. His gentle emerald eyes seemed to contain extreme affection , he asked: "Hello, little Nymph, I see you have been circling outside the temple of God Gaia, do you need my help?"
It was the first time for the nymph fairy to see such a gentle god as Apollo, her cheeks were immediately blushed, and her brown curly hair was messed up, making her look a little silly.
Apollo was not in a hurry, and patiently waited for her to come back to his senses. At this time, the eyes of the gods also gathered with Apollo's actions.
The little nymph, who was watched by many great gods, blushed, clenched her fists in her heart to cheer herself up, and said in a trembling tone: "It's not me... It's Your Highness Aphrodite, he, he asked me to come to Gaia Your Highness."
Hearing this, the gods couldn't help frowning, their expressions full of thought.
Didn't Aphrodite leave with the God King? Why did you suddenly send a nymph fairy to find God Gaia
Did something happen between him and the God King
Apollo and Artemis looked at each other, and then quickly looked away.
Apollo helped Fairy Nymph knock on the door of the Earth Temple as if nothing had happened, and said to her, "So that's how it is. Your Highness's order is very important. Go in and tell the Great God about it."
The little nymph secretly glanced at Apollo, blushed and responded shyly, and trotted into the Earth Temple.
After she left, Apollo and Artemis left together, disappearing from the sight of the gods.
The gods bowed their heads and whispered to each other. All kinds of messages and speculations quickly spread all over the mountain and into the ears of the gods.
For example, Hera, for example, Hephaestus.
Apollo and Artemis were the first two gods to arrive, because they guessed that Aphrodite still had the spirit to summon the Nymph Fairy, so they thought that Aphrodite should not have encountered any major problems.
I just thought there was some conflict between Aphrodite and Zeus, and a more authoritative goddess of the earth was needed to make a ruling.
Unexpectedly, after they came in, they saw Aphrodite standing aside with a scepter that was as tall as him, with a cold and dignified expression, as if nothing had happened.
On the other side, Zeus, as if he had been ravaged by something terrible, had messy blond hair, covered his head with one hand, and stuck his hand into the ground with the other. His fingers were filled with grass and mud, and he was almost out of breath in embarrassment.
Dazed by the scene in front of them, the twin gods looked at Aphrodite hesitantly, intending to walk towards him.
Aphrodite looked at the Twin Gods who suddenly barged in in surprise, wondering how the Nymph Fairy who was caught casually summoned her.
Didn't they say Gaia was here, why did this pair of siblings come
Aphrodite was puzzled, but she didn't show the slightest bit on her face. He raised his light purple eyes, stared at the twin gods for a few seconds, then glanced at the tormented Zeus over there, and nodded his chin slightly.
After receiving his hint, the twin gods paused, forcibly changed the direction of their footsteps, and trotted to Zeus' side.
Apollo helped Zeus up with concern, and Artemis summoned a clear spring to wash Zeus's careless dirt.
Artemis asked with concern: "Father God, what happened to you, why does it look so fragile and painful?"
Zeus himself didn't know the reason, panting heavily and said weakly: "Headache... Gaia..."
Apollo relied on Zeus not to be able to see himself, and his eyes contacted and communicated with Aphrodite unscrupulously.
Artemis is mainly responsible for appeasing Zeus, brushing the favor of the god king.
Artemis comforted: "Father God, don't worry, God Gaia is already on his way."
Apollo asked softly: "Your Highness Aphrodite, may I ask the God King what happened to him..."
Find out the reason first, and then give a confession, so as to get rid of responsibility before the gods.
Aphrodite nodded, and said casually: "I don't really know, it's all right, the king of gods suddenly complained of a headache..."
Aphrodite showed a thoughtful look: "Could it be some kind of curse?"
Apollo nodded thoughtfully, but he also knew that this matter should have nothing to do with Aphrodite.
Since it doesn't matter, then they don't care, just coax Zeus on the surface.
Under Artemis' gentle coaxing, Zeus's headache eased a little, and his ferocious expression dissipated and calmed down a lot.
Aphrodite stared at Artemis' hand. Artemis' slender white palm exuded a soft golden light. When the golden light passed Zeus's eyes, Zeus's painful expression became weaker.
Aphrodite looked strange, and asked: "Your Highness Artemis, why do you use the power of midwifery to appease the king of gods?"
With Aphrodite's reminder, Apollo and Artemis noticed the abnormality on her palm.
A hint of confusion flashed across Artemis' eyes, and she said hesitantly: "This has nothing to do with me, it's the power of midwifery that is mobilizing by itself."
The weirdness in Aphrodite's eyes was even worse, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Perhaps, he understood the reason for Zeus's headache.
Because Artemis was talking to Aphrodite, the palm of his hand moved away for a moment, and Zeus's headache instantly worsened. He immediately grabbed Artemis' hand and continued to press it on his head, and then let out a burst of comfort but An inexplicable sigh.
Apollo frowned, and glanced at Artemis. Artemis was still smiling, but it was obvious that her smile was very forced, and her brows were deeply furrowed. A touch of deep disgust.
Aphrodite paused, then walked over suddenly and pulled Artemis to stand up, then pushed her aside.
Artemis looked at him in surprise, and subconsciously asked: "Your Highness, you..."
Aphrodite withdrew her hand and tapped Zeus's head lightly with the top of the main god's scepter. The same midwifery power as Artemis flowed out from the scepter to appease Zeus.
Aphrodite's behavior had no other meaning, but she suddenly remembered that Zeus had always been a vegetarian, and had sex with more than one daughter.
Seeing Artemis' expression reluctantly, and thinking of her vow to become a virgin in the future, he knew that she probably hated the close contact with Zeus, and did not want to have any unethical contact with Zeus.
So he pulled Artemis over and used the power of the scepter to replace Artemis to appease Zeus.
Of course, on the bright side, everyone still has to cover up their dislike of Zeus.
Aphrodite looked down at Zeus who was hit by the scepter, but he said the respectful words in a very contemptuous tone: "It turns out that the power of midwifery can relieve your majesty's pain. Forgive me too much." I was careless and negligent, and I didn’t realize this until now, and it was in vain that I made the God King suffer for so long.”
Aphrodite smiled lightly at Artemis: "So, next, let me replace you, Your Highness, and soothe the pain of the King of God."
Artemis didn't want to support Zeus any more. Just now when Zeus grabbed her hand and rubbed his head against her palm, it made her feel very sick.
Now that Aphrodite offered to replace her, she relaxed a lot and hurriedly agreed, then ran to Apollo who was holding Zeus and squatted down obediently.
Zeus regained a little sanity due to the relief of the pain. He pulled his hair and asked in pain, "Aphrodite, what's wrong with me?"
Aphrodite lowered her eyebrows, her thick eyelashes fluttered slightly, and he said softly, "If I'm not wrong, Your Majesty, your brain may be pregnant."
As soon as Aphrodite finished speaking, the atmosphere suddenly became subtle.
Before Zeus could inquire more carefully, other gods also rushed into this secret small garden.
There were so many people coming, they destroyed the quiet atmosphere all at once.
Aphrodite casually glanced at the surrounding gods. Most of the gods were watching the scene. Their characteristic was that they were all standing behind the flowers, whispering but not approaching.
And there are only three gods entering the garden, Gaia, the goddess of elegance holding a vase of life, Hera, the goddess of grace holding a small golden staff, and...
Aphrodite's eyes fell on the last god, and there was a hint of confusion and speechlessness in her eyes.
The last god is Hephaestus, who is tightly wrapped in a cloak. He holds a huge ax in his hand. The blade of the ax is very sharp, and the sharp sunlight is refracted in the sun.
Before Aphrodite could express his confusion, Gaia first asked: "Aphrodite, why did you put the scepter against the head of the god king? Don't you know that this kind of behavior is disrespectful!"
Aphrodite sneered: "I know now, I will take back the scepter."
After speaking, he gestured to raise the scepter.
In a panic, Zeus immediately stretched out his hands and pressed the scepter firmly on his head, not allowing Aphrodite to pull it away: "Aphrodite, you can't do this!"
Aphrodite remained silent, raised her eyebrows at Gaia, her beautiful eyebrows were full of provocation.
Gaia's face was sullen, and her eyes were a little scary.
Hera glanced at Zeus who was slumped on the ground with disgust, and felt that he was not at all a threat from the god king, which was really annoying.
Hera asked unceremoniously: "Everyone, who can tell me what happened?"
Aphrodite adapted well to Hera's arrogance, but she didn't have the kind of provocation when facing Gaia, and she spoke out her guess just now with a normal attitude.
After listening, the expressions of the gods were different, but they were all very strange and slightly dazed.
Gaia repeated hesitantly: "Let's not say that Zeus is a male god... A male god can also conceive, but what does it mean that Zeus's brain is pregnant?"
Aphrodite said softly: "Simply put, there is a new god being conceived in His Majesty's body."
Before the gods could respond, Hera scolded angrily: "Zeus, you bastard, you made another illegitimate child!"
Although this god did not seem to be born of Zeus and other goddesses, Hera didn't care.
As long as the children are not conceived by her and Zeus, all are illegitimate children.
Neither did Zeus conceive himself.
Zeus suppressed his anger and growled, "Hera, be reasonable, do you think I want to have a baby?! The most urgent thing now is to get the stuff out of my mind. If He doesn't come out, I can't live without him." Use Aphrodite's midwifery power, and follow him at all times! Otherwise, I will be tortured to death by pain!"
Neither Gaia nor Hera said a word, and Hera watched Zeus' embarrassment coldly, only seeing the dissatisfaction and anger caused by his embarrassment. As for Zeus' situation and state, what does that have to do with her? It wasn't her fault.
It must be that Zeus was unclear outside, and he caused a mess. How could a normal god have a good pregnancy!
As if hearing the curse in Hera's heart, Zeus couldn't help but get a little tired, and he murmured: "But what's going on in my brain, anyway, you all quickly find a way to get him out of it …”
Gaia looked at Aphrodite and said, "Aphrodite, you are the god of reproduction, do you have any views and opinions on this?"
"?" Aphrodite was puzzled: "It's good that I am the god of reproduction, but your majesty's situation is too strange. Unless I split his brain and let the gods inside escape, I have no other way." .”
The gods pursed their lips, as if they were sighing for what happened to the god king.
But Aphrodite could clearly feel that there was a little gloating in the eyes of those unused Titans.
Thinking of the soul fragment that Iapetus had left with him, Aphrodite thought, and give it to Prometheus sometime.
When everyone was thinking about it, Hephaestus, who had been silent all this time, suddenly took a step forward, and said calmly, "I have a solution."
Aphrodite looked at him in surprise, and Hera's eyes also fell on this ugly son who made her hate it. Although Hephaestus was tightly wrapped in a black cloak, Hera's mind Li still subconsciously recalled the appearance of Hephaestus's weird pattern all over his body, and immediately turned his face away and stopped looking at him.
Hephaestus seemed to be unaware of other people's gazes. He took a step forward with an ax in his hand. When he spoke to Aphrodite, his voice immediately became softer and hoarse: "Your Highness, please Take the scepter and leave first."
Aphrodite paused, and asked later, "Hephaestus, what is your solution?"
Hephaestus raised his head, his face and expression were hidden under the mask and he couldn't see clearly, only his golden-red eyes were amazingly bright: "Your Highness, just get out of the way."
Aphrodite looked at Zeus. Zeus seemed to be still struggling, or maybe he was slow to respond, but he looked dumb.
Aphrodite gave the twin gods a look, and the three gods backed away in tacit agreement.
The departure of the midwifery power caused Zeus's head to ache again, but before Zeus could call back Aphrodite, Hephaestus suddenly raised the sharp and terrifying giant axe, and slammed it at Zeus's head. Chop down hard.
The ax broke from the bone with a soft 'boom'.
The beautiful goddess with strong, strong and graceful body flew out of Zeus's mind and landed on the ground. She was Athena, and she was also the goddess of wisdom evolved from the wisdom godhead that Metis left in Zeus.
She was originally extremely beautiful, radiant, bright and generous, and extremely eye-catching.
However, the gods did not stare at him, instead they gasped and looked at Hephaestus in horror.
Hephaestus was expressionless, and said coldly: "Aphrodite has already said how to help the God-King, we just do it, isn't it good now?"
Aphrodite looked up at the sky: "..."
Some don't know what to say.
Gaia swallowed her saliva, and leaned closer to Hera, for fear that Hephaestus would suddenly hit her with an ax when he became crazy.
Although she will not die, she will be afraid.
Hera was a little calmer than Gaia. Her disgusted eyes went back and forth between Hephaestus and Zeus. She hated both Hephaestus' rudeness, cruelty and viciousness, and Zeus's shaved face. Half of the bloody and terrifying head.
The twin gods said that although Hephaestus was ugly, he was indeed the son of Hera.
This cold-blooded appearance is something that ordinary gods cannot imitate easily.
When the scalps of the gods were numb from the scare of Hephaestus, Athena, the neglected goddess of wisdom, quietly picked up the severed head of Zeus, walked gently to Zeus's body, and put the head on for him. rise.
At the moment when the body touched, divine power surged out immediately, repairing the scars on Zeus' body.
Zeus held his head, and looked at Hephaestus with gloomy eyes, extremely vicious.
Athena didn't seem to notice Zeus' gaze, and patiently wiped the blood off Zeus's face, and then said with concern: "Father God, your injury seems to be serious. Is there anything I can do to help you? As long as Can repair your injury, Athena will die."
Because of the birth of Athena, Zeus suffered a lot of torture and pain.
But she was a god conceived by herself, which meant a lot to Zeus.
Not to mention, Athena seemed to care about him. Compared with the other children, especially Hephaestus, Zeus immediately felt differently about her.
Zeus took a fixed look at Athena, and the gray-silver-haired goddess was looking at him with concern, reverence and worry.
Zeus looked at Gaia again, and said hoarsely, "Mother Earth, give me a drop of life essence."
Gaia was somewhat reluctant: "God King, your wounds can heal slowly, and using life essence is too extravagant."
Zeus' gaze immediately became terrified, like a fierce tiger that chooses to eat someone, it is extremely terrifying.
Aphrodite looked at him thoughtfully, and felt that after Athena was born, Zeus seemed to be a little smarter, and he returned to the deep city before Metis.
Aphrodite thought to herself that after Zeus swallowed Metis, he planned to use the Godhead of Wisdom to provide him with wisdom and advice.
But how did he feel that the wisdom of Zeus was sucked back by the Godhead of Wisdom
Reminiscent of Zeus's embarrassing behavior after Metis was eaten by Zeus, Aphrodite reasonably suspected that Zeus might have been fooled by the wisdom godhead revenge.
Gaia was annoyed by Zeus's look, and reluctantly poured out a drop of the original solution, complaining incessantly: "Zeus, it's really too wasteful to use the original solution to recover your wounds, I hope you can think again. "
Before Zeus said anything, Hephaestus suddenly said, "Then why not give me the remaining power."
Hephaestus's leg injury seemed to heal a bit, and he was able to walk without crutches, but he still limped.
He kicked his broken right foot, and said with a blank expression: "My foot is broken, because the rescue was too late, it seems a bit useless. It just so happened that I helped Father God to give birth. I don't expect anything else, just want to cure the disability."
Zeus smiled coldly and said, "Do you think it's a meritorious deed that you chopped off my head?"
Hephaestus did not speak, and lowered his head, letting the cloak cover him.
Aphrodite sighed softly, and helped Hephaestus attract a little firepower: "Hephaestus' behavior may be a little rude, but there is no other way to solve your majesty's situation, so he can only do this .”
"If it weren't for Hephaestus' bold move, the other gods would be even more helpless in this situation, and His Majesty would have to endure this torture for a long time. Why can't this be considered a meritorious deed?"
Zeus said lightly: "I remembered, Aphrodite, without my permission, who would have allowed you to transfer the Nine Muses to Apollo at will, you should belong to the gods, do you still see me as the king of gods?"
Hephaestus raised his head involuntarily, staring at Aphrodite with golden red eyes, which became brighter unconsciously, as if soaked and washed by water.
Aphrodite asked bluntly, "How will Your Majesty punish me?"
Zeus was expressionless: "You are the main god, I can't prevent you from returning to the mountain. Get out too, don't be an eyesore in front of me, and come back when I forget about it someday."
Aphrodite said lightly: "Alright then."
After thinking for a while, he added: "I hope His Majesty will not give birth to new gods next time."
Then he looked at Artemis and said calmly: "Artemis, you are the god of midwifery. Your divine power should bring pain, and then make the mother give birth faster and end the long pregnancy. Instead of giving them Bring comfort, continue to suffer."
"The midwifery deity will no longer have the power to appease."
Zeus couldn't help but twitched his brows, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
Well, you Aphrodite, the meaning of the two sentences together is to say, I wish you the next time you have a child, it is best to hurt you to death.
Zeus really wanted to challenge Aphrodite, but he had just regained his IQ, and there were still many things in his mind that had not been sorted out. In order to avoid confrontation with Aphrodite, he was accidentally led into the ditch, and he endured it. Suppressing anger.
He took the life essence from the reluctant Gaia, divided it into two halves, gave one half to himself, and the other half to Hephaestus.
Hephaestus clenched the half drop of life liquid tightly, and instead of swallowing it immediately, he stood there stiffly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Aphrodite made up her mind to torture each other to the end with Zeus, never letting Zeus feel happy.
Zeus chased away the guests, and he didn't even wait for the farce on the mountain to end, so he returned to the Temple of Eros and brought the three goddesses of Grace, ready to go to the sea world with them.
Of course, this is just a superficial statement. In fact, Aphrodite has other arrangements.
Before walking out of the temple, Aphrodite closed all the doors and windows, cut off all visits, sat down in the temple alone, and then opened the box containing the two soul fragments of Iapetus.
Iapetus, who had been sealed in the box for a long time, was finally able to see the light of day, and wept uncontrollably, complaining: "Your Highness, I am so tired and suffering from waiting, why did you release me until now?" .”
Aphrodite said impatiently: "Put away your pretentious appearance, I have something to tell you."
Iapetos sobbed uncomfortably, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, please tell me."
Aphrodite played with the soul fragments and smiled slightly: "Wait a minute, I will send you to Prometheus. As I promised you, I will not interfere with the relationship between Titan and Zeus." But again, you'd better not dream about, for example, dragging me into the water and leaking my information to Prometheus."
Aphrodite gritted her teeth, and threatened sinisterly: "Iapetus, you have to remember, you still have a fragment of your soul with me. You are a god of retreat, unlike your brothers. Same."
"You... Be cautious in your words and deeds."
Iapetos whispered tremblingly: "Your Highness, I understand, I understand everything."
"To me, you are more important than my brothers and children. I know very well that I am subject to you, and you are the only one who can give me freedom and liberation from the beginning to the end."
The corners of Aphrodite's lips became wider and wider, and he smiled with satisfaction and said, "Iapetus, you are very obedient and obedient."
He carefully put away a fragment of Iapetus, isolating all breaths.
Then hide another piece in the dandelion mile, and let the breeze blow the down feathers to carry it to Prometheus.
After arranging all this, Aphrodite left the mountain directly with the three goddesses of grace.
He walked so crisply that no one could see the joke.
It also did not allow some gods to have the opportunity to say goodbye to him.
After Aphrodite left, Hephaestus also left silently from the chaos, limping outside the Temple of Eros.
However, he came a bit late, and the temple has been sealed, which shows that the owner of it has left.
Hephaestus's face was extremely pale under the mask, he held the half drop of life essence tightly, and stood in front of the Temple of Eros, without moving for a long time.
The roses planted in front of the temple suddenly withered inadvertently, and the bright red petals were blown down to Hephaestus' feet by the wind.
The slightly slender Vulcan squatted down with difficulty, knelt on the ground with one knee, carefully picked up the petals and held them in the palm of his hand, the life essence rolled gently in the petals, as if condensed on the petals in the morning light of dew.
Hephaestus took another look at the glazed eaves of the Temple of Eros that reflected seven colors of light under the dome, turned around and limped away.
Aphrodite, you were expelled because of me, so I must bring you back.
