Aphrodite and Tartaros were talking about their own thoughts. Tartaros thought for a while and said with a smile: "Is your family race? It must be very beautiful."
Aphrodite couldn't help laughing, and while speaking, they crossed the earth and stepped into the forbidden chaotic space.
The second he entered the space, Aphrodite's eyes suddenly went dark, and his eyebrows twitched. Just when he was about to ask Tartarus what was going on, a light golden light like a firefly fluttered from a distance. Come.
They are broken and light, with a kind of translucent beauty. They floated slowly from afar and landed at the feet of Aphrodite and Tartarus, paving a golden road.
At the end of the golden road, there is a hazy halo, and Aphrodite can vaguely see the buildings shrouded in that halo.
Magnificent, atmospheric, mysterious.
Even though he couldn't see it very clearly, there was an aura that shook Aphrodite's heart.
"Is this... the residence of the Creator God?"
After the appearance of the world of extreme ice, Aphrodite's desire to create the world became more and more intense, and at this moment, it reached its peak.
Aphrodite pursed his lips tightly, he closed his eyes to calm down, and when he opened his eyes again, his pupils exuded a bright look that had never been seen before.
After returning to Mount Olympus, he can no longer slack off. He has to work hard again, collect godheads from different branches, and expand the scope and types of his own godheads.
Tartarus stretched out his hand to Aphrodite and whispered, "I will take you into the temple."
Aphrodite nodded slightly, and shook hands with Tartarus' cold hands. They walked up the golden road, walked straight along the direction of the road, and slowly approached Chaos' residence. .
In this dark chaos, time seems to be isolated, and people in this space have lost the perception of time.
Aphrodite and Tartarus walked forward in silence. After a long time, they finally saw the end of the golden road, where a golden glazed palace stood.
The palace was very tall, and Aphrodite looked up. Compared with the palace, his body was as small as gravel.
On the gate of the palace, there are grid-shaped things of pure gold.
Tartarus raised his hand and touched it, then shook his head at Aphrodite and said, "The golden apple tree hasn't been removed yet, we have to wait a little longer."
Aphrodite thought for a while and laughed: "Gaia God seems to have just set off when we left, maybe she is a little far away from the golden apple tree."
Aphrodite gently rubbed the seal with her fingertips, her eyes focused: "Before walking for so long, I thought His Highness and I had been in this space for a long time. God Gaia is even faster."
There was a faint smile on Tartarus' pale face, and his voice was light and light, with the illusion that he was on the verge of collapse when blown by the wind: "Time will disappear in the long and unchanging night..."
Aphrodite turned her head and glanced at him, her light purple eyes were quiet and quiet, containing the power to see through everything, and he asked: "Your Highness, why are you living underground with the Great God Nix and the Great God Erebus?" In the underworld, instead of going to the holy mountain. Don't you feel lonely underground?"
Tartarus sat down slowly leaning against the gorgeous gate that seemed to be flowing with golden liquid. He bent his long legs, dragged his chin and looked up at the empty night sky above his head. He said with a smile: "Sometimes I feel It's lonely, but the life on the ground is not so good. You see, the gods on the Olympus mountain are sensual, drunk and dreaming, and they seem to be happy every day. But if you look closely, their life is just a daily life. It’s just the same drinking and sex, it seems that there are endless laughter and laughter, but it’s also boring inside. And I don’t have a strong sexual desire, and I prefer to sleep underground than repeated and laborious drinking and sex.”
Aphrodite lowered her head and sat down in the same position beside Tartaros. He echoed, "The gods really have nothing to pursue."
"But you are different." Tartarus heard this, and turned to look at him.
Aphrodite froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "Is it because I don't indulge in lust on the mountain?"
Tartarus shook his head and said, "No, you have a pursuit."
"Zeus once had a pursuit. He wanted to be the king of gods. At that time, he was high-spirited and smart. But after becoming the king of gods, he seemed to be satisfied, and gradually began to indulge in sex. Maybe it is the same as the king of gods. It must have something to do with the fact that there is no stronger power in the world."
Tartarus turned his head and looked at Aphrodite's white and smooth side face. He was looking up at the night sky with pure and clear eyes. Tartarus asked: "But you still have pursuits, and there are colors in your eyes, and you don't know what to do. You don’t intend to stagnate in the position of the main god, Aphrodite, do you want to be the king of gods?”
Aphrodite smiled, eyebrows and eyes curved, he denied: "No."
Tartarus thought about it seriously, and asked: "Then do you want to be a primitive god? For example, inherit the power of Eros and replace him?"
Aphrodite raised her hand, fingertips entwined with Tartaros's smooth black hair and slowly slipped down, he said softly: "Neither of them, Your Highness, don't guess anymore. I can only say, what I said The realm of pursuit is still far away, and it will allow me to maintain the color and vitality for a long time."
Tartarus' eyes trembled slightly, he couldn't help leaning over, and his palm fell on Aphrodite's arm.
Aphrodite hummed softly in her throat: "Huh?"
Tartarus asked: "Aphrodite, after you get Eros' weapon, can you answer me a question?"
Aphrodite narrowed her eyes slightly, as if hesitating a little, Tartarus said: "A very simple question that will never entangle you."
After thinking for a while, Aphrodite nodded and agreed: "Okay."
Aphrodite thought that she had no secrets that she could not tell.
After receiving Aphrodite's affirmative answer, although Tartarus didn't smile, his eyes widened a little, revealing a look of joy.
And just after the two reached an agreement, something strange came from the palace behind them.
The two gods reacted very quickly. At the moment when the palace gate trembled slightly, they both stepped back and stepped back on the golden road, watching the changes in the palace with cold eyes.
It may be that the golden apple tree has been removed, and the grid pattern on the palace gate is cracked and broken inch by inch, and is about to collapse.
Aphrodite snorted, and shot suddenly. He used Cronus' space priesthood to open up a space, and sucked all the golden debris that fell from the palace gate into it.
Tartarus was slightly stunned, Aphrodite felt it carefully, and asked: "Your Highness, is the pattern attached to the palace gate before the root of the golden apple tree? I feel a very powerful force from it. smell of wood."
After realizing it, Tartarus nodded slightly, and said, "Well, the root of the golden apple tree grew from the ground and attached to the palace gate, which became the seal of the palace. In order to remove the golden apple tree, Gaia, Just cut off its roots, and without the support of the main trunk, the roots just crumble."
Aphrodite was thoughtful: "The golden apple tree... it seems to be more special than I imagined."
Tartarus thought for a while and said, "It's very special, it's the most magical plant in the God's Domain, and it appeared after the God's Domain was formed."
Hearing this, Aphrodite thought in her heart that after returning home, he must study it carefully to see how special it is!
Tartarus gently pushed open the palace gate, and the heavy golden gate slowly moved inward, and the strong golden light slowly overflowed from the gap, and sprinkled on the two gods at the gate.
Aphrodite raised her hand and slightly covered her eyes. After a long time, the golden light slowly dissipated.
Aphrodite put down his hands and looked over, a barrier like a golden waterfall blocked his sight, so he turned to look at Tartarus beside him.
Tartarus said: "Go in, I won't go in."
Aphrodite was stunned, is there any restriction on entering the temple
Aphrodite thought for a while and asked, "Does Your Highness have anything to tell me?"
Tartarus pondered for a few seconds, and said, "When you go in, you can silently say the name of the guy you hate the most, and Eros may give you a gift."
"Huh?"
Aphrodite was dubious, and under the watchful eyes of Tartarus, he walked into the temple silently reciting the name of Zeus in his heart.
He passed through the golden waterfall, and the scenery in front of him changed completely. Unlike the majestic exterior, the interior was quite plain and simple.
In front of Aphrodite was an ordinary stone platform with a wooden stand on which stood a golden longbow.
Beside the golden bow, there is also a quiver.
Aphrodite walked over and picked up the golden bow, as the god in charge of love and desire, the golden bow instantly recognized its owner and bound Aphrodite, and Aphrodite asked to understand the role of the golden bow.
This golden bow is an artifact of the primitive god Eros. Its full name is the Golden Bow of Love. When its owner draws the bowstring to the full, it will condense golden arrows and lead arrows according to the owner's will.
The heart of the person who is shot by the golden arrow will instantly ignite fiery love, and then fall in love with the person he first saw;
Lead arrows are just the opposite. People who are shot by lead arrows will deeply hate the first person they see.
As the artifact of the primitive gods, the Golden Bow of Love is extremely powerful. When it shoots, not even the main god can resist its impact.
God Kings and Primordial Gods can block its power when they are on guard.
Aphrodite caressed the golden bow affectionately, thinking that he would give this bow and arrow to him as a weapon after the little Cupid was born, but she was a little bit reluctant.
Fortunately, Cupid was conceived by his reflection, he was his closest child, and was completely under his control. Aphrodite could still accept the golden bow for him.
Aphrodite carefully sealed the golden bow. He wanted to wait until the little Cupid was born before taking out the golden bow for him to disguise as Eros. Before the little Cupid was born, he could not love the golden bow. The breath leaked out, so as not to be noticed by Gaia.
After carefully sealing the golden bow of love, Aphrodite picked up the quiver beside her.
The quiver is a black shell with a golden "Ζε" letter engraved on the surface, which is the name of Zeus, and the quiver contains twelve gold-headed arrows.
The function of this quiver is now very clear. Aphrodite took out the twelve arrows and looked at them. On the arrow feathers of the twelve golden arrows, it was written—
"Indulging in Io the Heifer";
"Turned into a bull to lure Europa";
"Pluto, Bride of the Supreme Ruler of Olympus";
"Turned into golden rain and became Danae's bedmate";
"A marriage of fire with Semele";
"Turned into a eagle to abduct Aegina";
"Possesses Antiope Pretending to be a Satyr";
"The Transforming Swan Possesses Leda";
"Transformed noble stallion chasing Diya";
"Bless Alcmene for three days and three nights";
"Take Laodamia as his bride";
"Seduce Olympias".
The names of twelve different people are written on the twelve golden arrows. According to the function of the golden arrows, it is not difficult to judge that the names on these golden arrows symbolize that they are destined to entangle with Zeus in the future, and even give birth to Zeus' son.
Aphrodite said helplessly: "Is this a gift for me? Is this a curse against Zeus? It doesn't count... It's almost a blessing to Zeus."
He shook his head and stuffed the golden arrow back into the quiver, sealed it into the space together with the golden bow of love, and murmured: "Forget it, Eros God is not suitable for fighting, and it is reasonable to give such a gift. That's too much to ask for."
With a sigh, Aphrodite walked through the golden waterfall and came out of the palace.
When Tartarus saw him coming out, his gloomy eyes brightened a little, and his pale skin also had a tinge of blood. He asked with a smile, "How is it? Have you got the artifact of Eros?"
Aphrodite nodded, and told Tartarus about the existence of the golden bow of love and the twelve golden arrows. When Tartarus learned the function of the twelve golden arrows, he was also a little hard to explain.
But soon he comforted: "It's okay, although this golden arrow seems to be for Zeus to have an affair, but the person who is shot by the golden arrow will lose his mind for a short time. If you need to fool Zeus in the future, you can Take out the golden arrow and shoot Zeus."
Hearing this, Aphrodite's smile deepened a little. He nodded and glanced at Tartarus softly.
Tartarus fell silent, then put his fist to his lips and asked, "I've got the things, let's go back now."
Aphrodite nodded, and went back along the golden road when she came.
When Tartarus sent Aphrodite to the ground, he said: "I will not go back to the mountain with you..."
Aphrodite nodded, looking at him silently.
Tartarus looked down, his black hair falling from his face, and he seemed to be struggling.
Aphrodite stood in front of him, her silver hair was blown up by the wind, intertwined with Tartarus' hair, Aphrodite's soft words drifted into Tartarus with the sound of the wind In Rose's ear, he asked, "Your Highness, what was the question you wanted to ask me before?"
Tartarus looked at him steadfastly, with unknown colors flowing in his jet-black eyes, and he said, "I want to ask, what kind of god do you like and admire?"
Aphrodite almost sighed after hearing Tartarus' question. It's been so long, hasn't this Highness given up on that idea
However, this seems to be quite normal. If such thoughts are dismissed, this His Highness may not be so 'enthusiastic' in helping him.
After a short silence, Aphrodite said: "I am most obsessed with contradictory things."
Tartarus was slightly stunned, and Aphrodite said: "Too simple colors often mean boring, and when the most conflicting colors are intertwined, they may not be so beautiful, but they look exciting enough."
Tartarus bowed his head, as if he was thinking and savoring. After a long time, he said, "I understand."
Aphrodite raised his eyebrows slightly, Tartarus raised his hand as if wanting to touch his cheek, but finally put it down, Tartarus said: "You are also a contradictory existence, obviously you have the most affectionate Appearance, but no one can be colder than your heart."
Aphrodite gazed at Tartarus calmly. He never concealed this, but most people were always fascinated by his appearance and followed suit.
Tartarus said softly, "I'm going, I look forward to seeing you again."
Aphrodite watched his figure gradually go away, and the thick fog gradually rose, completely engulfing his back until it disappeared.
Aphrodite turned around and walked towards Mount Olympus.
One goes to the sky, one goes to the ground, and goes to the opposite place.
Narcissus is sleeping on his side on the bed in the mirror world. He has the most perfect face and a soft temperament.
The complex and gorgeous sparrow feathers spread under his body. Against such a strong color, his skin was as white as snow. His belly was slightly bulging, and his silver hair hung down, which was similar in color to his skin but bright and supple. He was sleeping soundly, his red lips were slightly raised, covering a strand of hair, giving him a delicate and innocent feeling.
Aphrodite held her hands behind her back, seemingly standing in front of the mirror and quietly looking at the beauty in the mirror, but her eyes were cold, and she was thinking about the next changes and arrangements wholeheartedly.
When Narcissus woke up sleepily rubbing his eyes, Aphrodite didn't even notice right away.
Until Narcissus stuck to the mirror and softly called: "Your Highness, you are back."
Only then did Aphrodite slowly come back to her senses, a fake and gentle smile instantly covered her cheeks, his voice was soft and sweet: "Narcissus, did you feel tired from the birth of the gods?"
Narcissus was still rubbing his eyes, he yawned a little, felt that the action was a bit indecent, covered his face and smiled shyly, and then he said: "A little bit..."
Aphrodite raised her hand to the mirror and said to Narcissus, "I will send you a little power."
Narcissus hesitated and said, "Forget it, Your Highness, you let me conceive this child just because you don't want to lose your power. It would be a waste for you to send your power to me now."
Aphrodite frowned slightly, and softly reprimanded: "Be obedient."
Narcissus paused, glanced at him cautiously, and put his palm on the mirror, feeling the power coming from the other side of the mirror world, Narcissus' eyebrows and eyes could not help but bend down, feeling sweet.
After the sweetness, there is endless emptiness.
So what if His Highness is gentle? They can never embrace each other, and His Highness will never belong to him.
Narcissus lowered his eyebrows, his forehead rested on the mirror, his eyebrows trembled slightly.
Aphrodite remembered what he had said to Tartarus before, and he told Narcissus: "Narcissus, when you conceived it, you told him to keep the appearance of a child when he was born, and don't use it as a child. The image of the adult god appears."
Narcissus was a little dazed, and Aphrodite briefly explained it to him. Knowing that Gaia was likely coveting his and His Highness's child, Narcissus's beautiful face was distorted and cold for a moment.
Narcissus whispered that he understood, and turned his head slightly so that Aphrodite could not see his expression.
Aphrodite asked: "By the way, during my absence, has anyone come to the temple to look for me?"
Narcissus nodded lightly: "Yes, Hephaistosto Meihui sent a box, and told the Meihuis that the twelve main gods have all ascended the throne, and the king of gods is going to hold his wedding ceremony with the queen of gods soon. At that time, let’s hold a banquet by the way to celebrate with the Lord Gods.”
Aphrodite couldn't help but sneered, and said viciously: "It seems that Zeus has a big opinion of us, isn't he even willing to hold a banquet for the Lord God?"
"But it doesn't matter, if he doesn't want to hold it, I can hold it for him."
Narcissus also laughed when he heard the words, and then pushed out the box Hephaestus sent.
The box was long, and after seeing it, Aphrodite's heart moved, and she immediately understood what was inside.
Aphrodite took the box to the table and put it away, turned the snap button, and opened the box, and the pure gold scepter of the main god on her arm lay quietly in it.
Aphrodite picked up the scepter of the main god and put it in her hand to watch it carefully. The shaft of the scepter is very ordinary, with a vertical length, but it is full of exquisite patterns. The bright spot is at the top of the scepter, on which Aphrodite's head is engraved. Aphrodite's stunning face has her eyes closed, revealing a solemn and sacred atmosphere.
Aphrodite raised the scepter, and the golden scepter shone with light, and began to change from the scepter of the main god to the scepter of love.
Different from the solemn and simple appearance of the main god's scepter, the Eros scepter was extremely gorgeously made by Hephaestus.
The specially crafted rose gold frosted column is shining with gold, and the top of the scepter is like a large hook, like the neck of a swan, with smooth and elegant curves. At the highest point of the hook, it is carved by Hephaestus, which is an unreal For the existing golden birds, Hephaestus always felt that the existing birds were not perfect enough to be decorations on the scepter of Beauty.
So he caught some birds and beasts to observe, and took out their most perfect parts, such as chicken beak, swallow jaw, snake neck, turtle back, and fish tail. It flapped its feathered and sharp wings like a mermaid's tail fin. The gorgeous tail feathers, like its owner, are extremely beautiful, luxurious and elegant.
And at the end of the hook, hangs an exquisite gold chain, from which hangs eight slender and curved gold wires, the eight gold wires form a round cage, in which the square, dazzlingly colored Eros godhead rotates , recklessly blooming with its own dreamy and beautiful colors, where the golden threads are closed, there are also long tassels of gold thread tassels.
This is an extremely gorgeous scepter, only such a gorgeous scepter can complement the God of Beauty, make each other more eye-catching, and shock the gods.
Aphrodite took out a monitoring ball that Hephaestus had left for her, and projected her current appearance.
Looking at the cold and dignified deity in the projection, with a little joy in his eyes, he was extremely happy.
While Aphrodite was admiring her own projection, Hephaestus also came to visit.
Aphrodite put away the mirror world to let Hephaestus in, and then stood in front of the throne holding the scepter that was as high as him, waiting for him to come in.
As soon as Hephaestus came in, he saw his admirable highness holding the scepter he personally made for him and looking at him with a smile in his eyes. Toss was dizzy for a moment and almost lost his composure.
Aphrodite looked at the god of forging with the most skillful hands with joy and tenderness, and asked kindly: "Huh? Hephaestus, I came back quietly, without disturbing anyone, and deliberately avoided Without your surveillance, how did you know I was back?"
Aphrodite questioned his soul, and Hephaestus woke up instantly. He lowered his head and said slowly: "I... put a seal on the outside of the box containing the scepter. If the box is opened, I will You will be notified."
"Uh..." Aphrodite was speechless.
