Zeus' malice was a little obvious, Aphrodite glanced at him calmly, stood up and said, "God King, does the council have anything else to say?"
Zeus glanced at him, and let out a muffled snort from his nose, with a calm expression: "Why, what are you doing?"
Aphrodite nodded, hummed softly, and said seriously: "I would like to invite all my friends to sit in my temple. If you have nothing else to do, we will leave."
Zeus asked, "Who do you want to invite?"
Aphrodite covered her lips and smiled softly: "The visitor is a guest, I welcome any god to come."
Most of the gods want to make friends with Aphrodite, but they are afraid of being targeted by Zeus and then being hated and wearing small shoes.
This is for ordinary gods, and the main gods naturally have no such scruples.
As soon as Aphrodite finished speaking, Ares immediately said impatiently: "Your Highness, I'm going!"
Hephaestus frowned: "Ares, can you be more stable?"
Ares chatted, Hera immediately became upset, and retorted for Ares: "Hephaestus, Ares is innocent and lively, how can you say that he is not stable?"
Hephaestus laughed coldly, and turned to Aphrodite and said, "Your Highness, I can help you arrange the banquet."
Aphrodite bowed her eyebrows, and the beauty with golden light shining all over her body was amazing, and the twin gods and Demeter also followed the invitation.
All of a sudden, the six main gods were empty, Zeus frowned, his face was cloudy and uncertain, not very good-looking.
Then he snorted coldly and said, "The meeting is over!"
Only then did the gods leave sparsely.
Aphrodite invited several main gods to come out, and he didn't really know how to gather. He was not keen or interested in this kind of thing.
When the gods followed him to the back garden of the Temple of Eros and sat down, the three goddesses of Meihui appeared gracefully, swaying gracefully, and directed the Nymphs to present fruits, barbecues, and food, and the three of them also swayed. The skirt blooming like flowers pours sweet wine for the gods.
Aphrodite put the exquisite bronze cup in her hand aside, and let the three Graces leave. Cupid sat beside him obediently with his legs hugged. His silent appearance was very bluffing, and he looked very obedient.
The gods sat among the blooming rose bushes, and the roses put away their sharp thorns beside the gods. After only the main gods and Cupid were left in the back garden, Aphrodite said: "Everyone, actually I didn't call you here just for a party."
The gods froze for a moment, then put down the wine glasses in their hands, and pretended to listen quietly to his speech.
Aphrodite sighed softly: "What I want to say is still related to the loss of the golden arrows. If there is no accident, those few golden arrows should be picked up by Zeus."
Aphrodite gently twirled the rose on her finger, leaned on the throne, her brows drooped, indifference and indifference poured out from his eyes, he said coldly: "If there is no accident, the golden arrow will also Used by him on you. Especially you, Artemis."
The blond goddess opened her eyes wide, showing hesitation, pointed at herself, and said in amazement: "Me?"
Aphrodite said indifferently: "You swore to the oath river to be a virgin goddess, if you accidentally break the precept under the temptation of love and attract the punishment of the law, then there will definitely be a rift between us, and Zeus will definitely It’s nice to see that scene.”
His eyes flicked across the other gods: "The reason why I guess this way is another reason. Because only you will be punished for the consequences caused by the golden arrow. For the rest of us, it was just an accident It’s just an affair, there is no threat. If I were Zeus, I would definitely use golden arrows to deal with you. I don’t know if he thinks so, but you have to be careful.”
Artemis thought for a while, then nodded to show that he had made a note of it, and would definitely be careful.
Immediately afterwards, Aphrodite went to look at several other gods, her eyes passed over the male gods one by one, and finally fell on Demeter.
Demeter raised a charming smile, her charming appearance was extremely alluring, she lightly licked her lips, and said with a coquettish smile: "Your Highness, you don't need to look at me. I am different from my pure little niece, I am Don't mind indulging in a beautiful love affair and look forward to it."
Aphrodite murmured, "Well... do you mind if Persephone also feels the wonderful love?"
Demeter's face changed suddenly, and there was no need to answer, everyone had already judged her thoughts from her expression.
Demeter's face was distorted, like a beautiful snake tearing off her false beauty, revealing her ferocious and terrifying snake kiss: "Whoever dares to plot against Persephone, I will definitely kill him and make him You can't live, you can't die."
Aphrodite sighed softly, "Then you have to keep an eye on Persephone."
Demeter clenched her fingers, unable to sit still.
Aphrodite said empathetically: "If you are in a hurry, go back and have a look at Persephone, I have nothing else to do here, and I mainly want to talk about these things when I invite you here. "
Demeter nodded absent-mindedly, and said in a panic, "I'm sorry Your Highness, then I'll leave first."
Aphrodite nodded, Demeter raised the wine glass, touched the glass with Aphrodite, the two drank the wine, and Demeter left in a hurry.
Hephaestus pondered: "But Your Highness, you said that you lost three golden arrows, will the last golden arrow be used by Zeus against you?"
"Like, make you fall in love with him or something?"
Ares asked Hephaestus anxiously: "Brother, can you give His Highness a pair of armor to prevent His Highness from being affected by the golden arrow?"
Hephaestus sneered: "You don't need to remind me about this kind of thing."
Ares glanced at Aphrodite with some grievances, and a shimmering golden light emerged, hiding Aphrodite behind the holy and gentle light curtain, so that Ares could not see his face clearly.
Aphrodite lightly tapped the halo with her fingertips, and said with a smile: "That, I was talking nonsense. In fact, only two golden arrows should have been lost, but I can't be sure, but I don't need armor, I have There are other ways to prevent the effect of the golden arrow."
Apollo nodded and said, "That's good, that's good."
Aphrodite squinted at him, and said lightly, "Apollo, aren't you worried that Artemis will fall in love with someone else?"
Apollo tilted his head, his long blond hair was hanging down smoothly, he grinned, showing a big smile, his expression was bright and sunny, but his words were cruel and cruel, he said: "Don't worry, because I will kill you That daring guy who dared to seduce my sister, cut off all possible consequences."
Aphrodite raised his eyebrows, Apollo blinked, and looked at him innocently.
Aphrodite pointed the wine bottle to her lips, smiled and took a sip of the mellow wine.
Because all the gods here are relatively familiar gods, although the relationship between the twin main gods and Hera, and the relationship between Hera's two god sons, the atmosphere between the gods is very subtle, but it's still okay to play with each other. Well, Cupid acted as a lubricant, turning back and forth between several gods, because everyone liked him very much, and soon the subtleties disappeared.
Still obsessed with his prey, Cupid tugged at Artemis's sleeve and said, "Sister, when will you take me hunting again?"
Artemis subconsciously looked up at Aphrodite, and Aphrodite looked at Cupid with serious eyes. Cupid immediately hesitated, and said obediently: "Father God, Cupid will definitely not shoot golden arrows indiscriminately in the future. Already~"
Aphrodite withdrew her gaze and hummed lightly.
Aphrodite didn't want to spoil the fun, she had a feast with the gods and drank a lot of wine, seeing that they were a little drunk, she asked the Nymph Fairy to help them to rest, and then fell asleep in her arms Cupid went to the bedroom to rest.
The golden light flew into the mirror world and turned into the appearance of Narcissus. He supported the mirror and looked at the slightly flushed Aphrodite, and asked with concern: "Your Highness, are you drunk?"
Aphrodite remained silent, closed her eyes and was thinking about something, as if she was really drunk and fell asleep.
Narcissus stared at him blankly, but Aphrodite suddenly opened his eyes after a while, and then lay down on the bed.
Although his face was flushed, he looked very sober.
Aphrodite and Narcissus said: "I was thinking about something just now. I checked the absorption of Eros' divine power through Cupid. I think I absorbed the part about desire very quickly, and I can even condense it. Part of the priesthood. But there seems to be some power of love sealed there, almost unchanged. Narcissus, what do you think is going on?"
Narcissus hesitated: "Could it be because you have never loved anyone?"
Aphrodite glanced at him: "But before I controlled rational love and blind love that was not assigned to Cupid, I thought I had no problem controlling love."
But Narcissus said: "The love you controlled before belonged to others. The love of others for you, maybe the love of Eros is your own love."
Aphrodite was slightly stunned, and frowned: "Forget it, let's forget about that part of the power. Let Cupid absorb Eros's power slowly, and we'll talk about it later."
"The top priority is to gather the power of the abyssal titan gods. Prometheus' speed seems to be pretty good."
Aphrodite is thinking about the power she currently has: "Once I absorb the power of Eros, I will immediately have the power of the original god. But according to His Royal Highness Tartarus, I'd better absorb the power of Eros." Before the power of Ross, let the other powers be on par with the power of love. If all these powers are used by me, It should be able to overwhelm the power of Eros, so I don’t have to worry about my power being assimilated by the power of love…”
"The sky in God's Domain is born from the earth. I can't get my hands on the godhead of the earth, but I also try to go in the opposite direction. The sinking of the sky becomes the earth, and the water vapor rises and floats to become the sea. Life creates all things, and the heavens and stars become the sun, moon, stars, and sky." …All the elements are gathered, and the power is almost accumulated enough. At the same time, with the help of the law, it seems that as long as the power of Eros is absorbed, I can create the world. But—”
Aphrodite frowned deeply, and a trace of irritability flashed between his brows and eyes. He suddenly became agitated, and murmured: "I didn't think about it before, and I didn't feel anything. But now that I think about it, I always have a feeling It feels like I forgot something."
"What did I forget? Narcissus, do you have any ideas?"
Narcissus shook her head blankly, and Aphrodite had to guess by herself: "Could it be related to Mnemosyne, she affected my memory? But she is not as powerful as me, not even the main god, she should not be able to control it." My memory is it. Or is it related to the jewelry she is preparing? Tartarus once warned me not to accept the jewelry from the goddess, but I haven't received the gift from Mnemosyne yet, how can I Do you feel forgotten now?"
The more Aphrodite thought about it, the more dignified her expression became. He can be sure that he has really forgotten something, otherwise he would not have such obvious anxiety.
But he couldn't think of anything, which was abnormal.
Why don't you ask the rules
Aphrodite couldn't sit still, and immediately escaped into the ice world to communicate with the law.
It's a pity that the law can't give him the answer, it's not that he doesn't know, but that he can't.
The law only told him—
[It is not only you who are forgotten, but also the world. ]
Aphrodite felt that she had fallen into a confusing situation. Because of the loss of memory and insufficient information, she couldn't find the omissions of things, which made him feel very bored.
And the description of the law also gave him a little pressure, the existence that the world has forgotten, who is 'He', is it the god of this world? How powerful is he, that the world will forget him, and no god can remember him
Aphrodite's face sank, and Narcissus persuaded in a low voice: "Your Highness, if you really can't remember it, then don't think about it. Maybe one day Fulin's heart will come, and you will suddenly have a clue?"
Aphrodite sighed softly: "But this is man-made... Maybe if he doesn't appear, I will never realize who he is? Well, could it be Eros? He didn't really die?"
Thinking of this, Aphrodite shook her head again, denying her thoughts: "Although I don't know how Eros died, his power is indeed flowing to me. It can't be him. Or Chaos ? As the Creator God, He should have the power to confuse the world."
But intuition reminded Aphrodite that it was not the two gods above that he had forgotten.
After a long time, Aphrodite sighed softly: "Narcissus, you are right, if you really can't remember it, don't think about it. The most urgent thing is to improve your own strength. After I gather all the power, even if I am Ka Oss came in person, with the help of the law, I will not be powerless to resist. This guy I have forgotten, I don’t believe that he can be stronger than Chaos.”
Narcissus asked in a low voice: "Then what if he is stronger?"
After he finished saying this, he regretted it. His Highness was worrying about that unknown god. Would it make His Highness unhappy if he said that...
Narcissus was thinking anxiously, but Aphrodite laughed instead. There was a little bit of dazed and apprehensive hidden in the calm smile: "... if the skills are not as good as others, I am willing to bow down. It is worse than Zeus's incompetence and rage It’s good to lose your grace.”
Narcissus said softly: "Yes."
Aphrodite thought for a while, but then said: "I don't know if it is because I am deceiving myself in my heart. I don't seem to be afraid of the one I have forgotten. What I feel in my heart is chagrin. Perhaps, He It may not be powerful, but the method is very special."
Narcissus said something irrelevant: "Your Highness, no matter when and where, I will always be with you, and I will live and die with you."
Aphrodite responded lightly, pushed her long silver hair back, sat up, arranged some messy clothes for herself, and said, "I'm going to find Hera, she took the golden apple tree and me earlier. In exchange for the priesthood of purification, I have never picked a golden apple except for picking a 'life' that time. Although the power contained in the golden apple is very little, it still has something special."
Narcissus asked, "May I go with you?"
Aphrodite re-tied the golden belt that she took off during the break before, and said with a light smile, "It's not allowed during 'Nemesis', but it is possible during Aphrodite's time."
Narcissus let out an 'ah', flew out of the mirror, and wrapped around Aphrodite's arm and body.
Aphrodite's expression returned to normal. He walked out of the temple and asked the three goddesses of grace before leaving. After Hephaestus and the others woke up, let them go to the golden apple orchard to enjoy the golden apple tree. Go, if there is no accident, don't go to him.
The three goddesses of Grace took the order, and Aphrodite left.
Aphrodite first met Hera in the Queen's Temple and asked Hera to open the Hesperides Holy Garden to him.
Because Hera touched the stamen of the golden apple and became pregnant, neither Hera nor Zeus wanted to have a child for no reason, so the golden apple tree was removed from the sacred mountain and is now stored in the holy garden. , guarded by the dragon Radon.
After learning of Aphrodite's intention to come, Hera's expression was a little strange, and there was a trace of resentment.
Aphrodite intuitively felt that her expression had something to do with 'Nemesis'. He was afraid that he would feel guilty if he stayed with her for a while, so he left the mountain after asking for the oracle and went to Hesperi Desi Holy Garden.
The holy garden is not far from the holy mountain, and it is not on the ground, but floating in the sky.
This is a floating island.
Aphrodite drove towards the holy garden in the chariot of dawn, and from a distance, she saw the terrifying appearance of the hundred-headed dragon pulling and spinning around outside the island, roaring at the people who watched the holy garden.
Aphrodite flew in directly in the divine chariot, and threw the oracle to Radon.
After checking that the oracle was qualified, Radon breathed a sigh of relief and continued to patrol outside the holy garden.
The golden apple tree is very tall and huge, and its canopy covers the sky above the holy garden of Hesperides. After entering the holy garden, Aphrodite could see the leaves above her head and the looming and shining leaves in the canopy as soon as she looked up. golden apples.
He got off the gorgeous, delicate and majestic dawn chariot, teleported to a tree trunk, and picked off a golden apple. Coincidentally, it had 'desire' written on it.
Aphrodite felt that the golden apple tree might have spirits, so it would give him the most suitable one to pick the golden apple tree.
Aphrodite picked two more golden apples, on which were written 'love' and 'marriage'.
Aphrodite bit off the golden apple tree lightly, and no longer cared about what happened to the holy mountain and the human beings.
He stayed in the holy garden for a long time, because Hera didn't care, and Radon didn't dare to urge him to come out.
Soon after, a new group of gods on the desire side were created by Aphrodite. They were Harmonia, the goddess of harmony and coordination, Demos, the god of fear, Phobos, the god of intimidation, and Phobos, the god of love. The god Anteros, the god of weddings, Hymeneus, the god of fertility, Priapus, and, the god of both sexes, Hermaphrodites.
The other gods are fine, but the last bisexual god, Aphrodite, did not know how to appear.
But generally speaking, the results of his trip to the Holy Garden were very rich. Although a little power was allocated to create new gods, the birth of new gods also meant that he had mastered more than half of the power of desire.
And when their strength grows in the later stage, they will also feed back to Aphrodite, it's just a matter of time.
Aphrodite was enjoying herself in the holy garden, but there was a sudden chaos on the holy mountain.
There are three things respectively. One is that Poseidon’s son, a very good hunter Orion, invited Artemis, the goddess of hunting, to hunt competitively with him. Scratched Artemis, making Artemis fall in love with him after seeing him.
Let's not talk about Artemis' mood, but Apollo and Poseidon are about to fight. Apollo wanted to kill Orion directly, but Poseidon refused to let him.
The second thing is that Pandora opened the magic box that sealed the curses of the gods. Floods, plagues, diseases, aging... all the curses rushed out of the magic box, swept all the human beings, and the new humans began to fight among themselves. , Countless human beings die every day. As a result, the workload in the underworld increased greatly, and Hades had no choice but to bring a group of underworld gods to the world to seduce souls.
By the way, I would like to ask Zeus, the Phaethon disaster is the only way to do it, and how long has it been since the creation of new human beings, and he suddenly came here, what exactly does he want to do!
It's a pity that Hades' questioning was fruitless, because the third dispute was related to him. After Hades questioned Zeus, Zeus became angry and shot Hades with a golden arrow. Demeter is not strict, and Persephone can only sneak out to play.
Under the influence of the golden arrow, he fell in love with Persephone, and in agitation, he took Persephone away directly.
It is conceivable that Demeter, who loves her daughter like her life, went crazy after learning about this.
Because of the chaos on the mountain, no one had time to tell Aphrodite when it happened.
Aphrodite's source was Cupid.
Because the great gods who were shot by the golden arrows were too powerful, the more Cupid thought about it, the more afraid he became. He was afraid of being caught by the great gods to vent his anger, so he didn't dare to stay on the mountain, and ran away overnight with the golden bow, looking for Aphrodite's protection. coming.
