Pivot of the Sky
Chapter 292 293. Blasphemers
Zeus negotiated with Amon a matter of revenge against Marduk, not a direct battle between the gods, but through human means.
The reason is simple: the Olympus system has never proactively provoked a conflict with the Great Light Divine System in which Marduk is located. Marduk, however, set fire to the Heaton peninsula, provoking the dispute. Zeus had a straightforward personality, how Marduk did it, how he responded.
In fact, these two gods have done it in some way in the world. Marduk was transformed into Darius the Potts monarch, Zeus into Leoni the King of Kibada, each leading a battle at the Hot Springs Gate, and the Potts Empire was victorious and Leoni was killed. The result was a resistance from the United Kingdom of Heaton, where the war had lasted for years and eventually defeated the Potts army.
The culprit was Marduk, and after Potts' army withdrew from the Heaton Peninsula, Darius collapsed and Marduk retreated to create his comfortable world. But Zeus didn't want to stop, and Marduk could decide how to start, and Zeus couldn't let him decide how to end it alone.
There is no doubt that the vast borders of the Poz Empire are the divine domain of the great god Mazda, whether or not Marduk is still alive. Zeus' plan to fight back was clear, and he wanted to join forces with Amon to annex the so-called Great Light Domain in its entirety, just as Marduk had annexed the Anunaki Domain.
Zeus' aspiration sounds appalling, as the Potts Empire is an unprecedented giant on the heavenly pivot, and how could he have achieved such an incredible goal based on the tiny Heaton Peninsula? But that's what Zeus thought, and if he hadn't been such a god, he wouldn't be the Lord of the Olympus heavens today.
However, after the departure of the Potts Army, the Heaton Peninsula was plunged into the chaos of urban domination, and the Olympus gods remained divided among themselves, and the Heaton Peninsula was divided into many separate divine domains large and small. Marduk unified such a vast realm, and Zeus didn't even take care of the tiny Heaton Peninsula. What else is there to talk about against Marduk?
The current state of the Olympus Divine Domain is due to historical reasons. Zeus merged with and inherited the divine kingdom of the original gods and founded the Olympic kingdom. He also allowed the gods to build independent palaces in heaven and to become dependent on the gods to create an independent creator world, without interfering in anything other than obedience to the will of Zeus in heaven.
This is the oath that was made when the Divine System was founded, and the promise that Zeus gave to the gods after winning the Gods' battle, mapped into the divine domain of man, this is the situation.
The time of the city on the Heaton Peninsula was not only a time of constant strife, but also a time when ideas collided and sparks erupted, which is why Amon met so many wise men with so many strange and even bizarre thoughts in the eyes of ordinary people and so many wonderful human dramas in Aaron City.
And it's obviously not easy for Zeus to integrate this situation without violating his promises to the gods.
He needs to nurture a powerful city state, truly unify the Heaton Peninsula, and then cross the Strait to the west to conquer the entire Great Potts Empire. If you look at the map of the Heavenly Pivot, Zeus' plan is to let an ant swallow an elephant, and only a god like him and Amon dare think about it!
But Zeus chose a city that would not be Aaron or Kibada, and on the contrary, Zeus wanted to punish the two cities and make them suffer the fate of conquest and decline.
So which city state is it that does this almost unimaginable ambition? The result of the negotiations between the two heavenly lords —— let Amon choose, as long as the Lord God that this city believes in is Zeus. They work together as “God” and “man”, respectively, to accomplish this.
Since Amon cannot be a god, of course he has to act as a mortal. And Zeus, who remains the Lord of the Olympian kingdom, sends down the Oracle to give all cooperation if it is resolved by the Olympian gods and their angels in the face of the gods of the Great Light Divine System.
This is the division of labor between "God” and “man”, and is consistent with the tradition of the covenant between God and mortal man. This time, however, the “mortal" who made a covenant with the “god” became Amon.
Zeus is a thief. Where do we find a great mortal like Amon? Amon, for whatever reason, promised to cooperate with Zeus. Zeus was trying to prove his accomplishments, and Amon was trying to find a way to prove it.
After the two spirits reached an agreement, Zeus said: "In the future, the whole of the Heaton Peninsula will be truly united, and when you leave the Heaton Peninsula and enter a new divine domain, you and I can spread the Divine System's guidance by means of means. But you promised to let the Olympus gods into your realm, only because your vows were different, not because you were extraordinarily generous, and I wouldn't thank you then. ”
Amon smiled bitterly: "This is a matter of reunifying the Heaton Peninsula and then annexing the Potts Empire. Let's do it by ourselves. It's like doing business. It's too early to think about how to divide property before it opens! ”
Zeus lifted his glass and laughed hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha ”
Amon also raised the glass and the two laughed at each other, but Zeus' face suddenly solidified for a moment. The glasses go in the air, but it's like they'll never collide! Zeus saw Amon's eyes and disappeared from him in the huts, in the fields and in the world outside Mithuly. The other world that Amon sees will completely embrace Zeus.
When we had our first drink, Zeus suddenly attacked Amon. When the two of them have finished discussing the matter, they raise their glasses, and Ammon suddenly suffers with color.
The cabin's gone. They're sitting in another world drinking. There is a strange dividing line between the two, Amon sits in a desert, facing picturesque wilderness and mountain river; Zeus sits on the prairie, facing a desert that burns flames and emits smoke. This is the kingdom of Amon.
Zeus, if you can't cross the line and meet Amon's glass, you're stuck in the world that Amon's eyes are showing. As Amon saw Zeus smiling, his eyes also reflected a world - the mountains of Emerald, the clouds floating between the peaks, and many beautiful palaces floating in the sky, such as the decorations between the mountains, the Olympic kingdom.
Zeus escaped bound by the great power of Amon, as if he had returned to his kingdom, and as if the kingdom opened with his soul had invaded Amon's kingdom. Just listen to the "ding” sound, the glasses touch together gently, everything is back the way it was, this crossover evenly divides the autumn color.
……
It was late at night outside the cabin, the farm was full of starlight, and the two gods' rivalries were silent in the world, but they shook the divine kingdom they had created. Medanzo noticed someone walking into the vineyard, pulling out a spoon of destiny and coming outside the cabin, but saw two gods standing there confronting him: Artemis, whom he had long known, and Apollo, whom he had met on the stage.
Apollo had a golden bow, Artemis had a silver bow, neither of them had a bow or arrow, only to guard each other. When he saw Medanzo come, Artemis nodded at him, while Apollo glanced at him.
At this point, another god emerged outside the cabin, Hermes, the master god of the state of Miduli, with his staff. And Hermes said to the two gods, "Please don't do it with me. ”
Artemis replied unemotionally: "I did not break the covenant, I just stared here to see if anyone else wanted to break the covenant. ”
Apollo also replied coldly: "If Amon and Zeus did it, it would be another divine invasion, irrespective of our covenant. ”
Medanzo didn't know what to do, either, but he stood beside Artemis. That's when he heard the scorpion Wang Xianshui flooding again in his soul: "What's the matter, Amon God went so far to fight? Do you want us to go over there and help? ”
Medanzo secretly replied, "Don't worry, I don't understand the situation of Amon God and Zeus. I don't think I can fight, the Olympus gods are just making themselves feel better. If I do, can't Amon gods fight? ”
The sound of the water shouted, “Amon God can get away with it, but Medanzo, you don't have to get away! But don't worry, I will avenge you with the angels in heaven. ”
Without mentioning how Medanzo's heart cursed the water, the atmosphere outside the cabin was a bit sword-shaped. Zeus and Amon in the house naturally knew what was going on out there, but they were still not talking slowly. The two of them drank the last glass of wine, and Amon laughed: “It's messy out there, I guess you have a headache, no wonder you have that idea. If it weren't for Marduk's mess, you wouldn't really have had the right chance to clean up the entire divine domain. ”
Zeus sighed: "I became King Leonid of Kibada, who was meant to truly unite Heaton UK, and who unexpectedly became what it is today, and had to start a different stove. … Amon, I would also like to remind you that there is a price to pay for honoring a promise that is not as simple as a silver coin, and that there is always something you don't want to see. ”
Amon nodded slightly: “I know very well, but that's exactly what I'm going through. ”
……
The cabin door opened and Zeus came out and shut the door with his hands. He frowned and asked: “What are you all doing here? I just harvested grapes and earned a magic stone. You want to earn money and help Amon make wine? ”
Apollo put away the long golden bow: “Father of the Gods, I am merely on guard against the invasion of another divine system. ”
Zeus waved: “It's okay, Amon and I were just drinking and talking. ”
“Father of the gods, I am the Lord God of Miduli," said Hermes. ”
Zeus said with no expression: "I know, and Amon knows! Without your concern, when the grapes are made into wine, Amon leaves the state of Miduli. Put away your staff, it's just a toy in my eyes. ”
Zeus stepped into the void after he had spoken, and Apollo turned around and left, but Hermes remained where he was.
Artemis closed his silver bow and stared at Hermes: "Why don't you go? ”
Hermes stunned: "This is my realm of divinity, and I should be asking you this question! ”
Medanzo also put away the spoon of destiny and smiled at Hermes: "You, you have no idea! The whole city is your domain. Why don't you stay somewhere else and we'll have to block this door to interrupt? ”
Hermes just reacted, snorted cold and disappeared. As Amon pushed the door out, he smiled at Artemis and said, "There's nothing to worry about, but thank you for coming. ”
Artemis whispered slightly with resentment: "You came here quietly, didn't even say hello, and let Zeus find the door! Luckily, nothing's wrong, otherwise I don't even know who to help.... what exactly did you talk to Zeus about, can you tell me? ”
Amon nodded, “I have nothing to hide from you, and if you want to know, I'll tell you the truth. It's late at night. Let's go inside and talk. ”
Amon, open the door and ask Artemis to come in. Just moments after opening the door, Medanzo was surprised to discover that the view in the cabin had changed, and behind the door was a manor, similar to the land of Aegu when Amon was there! Medanzo happened to see Schrödinger's favorite spot in the estate's backyard, the Best Shrine.
The door was closed and Medanzo left with interest. He whispered in his heart as he walked: "The means of the gods are amazing, and the little Heaton Peninsula is also high, it seems I'm still far from it! I have followed Amon God for the longest time and experienced the most, but when will I be able to transcend eternity? ”
……
Why would Zeus punish two cities, Aaron and Kibada? It is not because their Lord God is not Zeus, it is a covenant between the Olympus gods, and Zeus has no reason to interfere; nor is it because they waged a civil war on the Heaton Peninsula, a dispute between the city-states of man, and Zeus will not intervene directly.
The most important reason was that the two cities had colluded with the Potts Empire in the civil war and, in order to defeat each other, they had invited back the enemies they had expelled together. This is intolerable to Zeus, and people pissed off the Father of the Gods.
How did this happen? Why would Aaron and Kibbada go after the Potts Empire? The story also begins with an ambitious man who behaves in a vile and reckless manner, named Fox.
There is a kind of person in the world who has nothing but an ambition full of merit, without any true faith and belief. Such people do not care with whom they are enemies or who they give in, they have no national significance, no glory or shame in their hearts, and any means can be used to achieve their ambitions.
Unlike idealists who strive with conviction, their so-called ambitions are merely to prove their self-righteous personal success.
And these people often pretend to be believers or even saints, saying all kinds of moving words, expressing reverence for the gods, describing noble ideals. But they had no true faith in them, and all the glory they preached was stepping up the steps beneath them.
True atheists, though not glorious in the eyes of the gods, are not at fault, because even people who believe in the gods will not believe in the same gods, and atheism is a belief and belief. And the most disastrous thing about the world, and the most disgusting thing about the gods, is that they are blasphemers, blasphemers of all faiths, who often stand in temples, just like this one Fox on the Heaton Peninsula.
Fox is a consul elected by the Aaron City State Citizens' Assembly, and the policy he advocates is upheld by most of the city's citizens. Taking advantage of the desire of business people in Aaron City to expand and plunder more profits, Fox strongly called for the formation of an expeditionary army to occupy the surrounding islands and conquer the economically rich and relatively weak states in order to plunder the ever-growing wealth.
The people of Aaron City State were inspired by Fox's decision to build a strong navy for the expedition, which was frustrated. Now that it was time to ride a tiger, Aaron used the last Allied City State alliance to rebuild a fleet and finally defeated the expedition. But just before the Expeditionary Fleet had returned, the Allied Coalition forces in Kibada had crushed Aaron's business links with the outside world.
The tactics of the Kibadas were quite ingenious and the information available was very accurate, which accidentally attacked the weaknesses of the Aaron Alliance and achieved the greatest results at minimal cost. Why is this happening? Because the military plan of the Alliance of Kibada was developed by Fox, who betrayed the Alliance.
Fox didn't want to betray Aaron from the start, but changed the "top” strategy as the situation changed. He initially wanted to use the dominance of the Aaron Alliance to achieve personal ambition, but after the failure of his first naval expedition, he saw a reversal in the power contrast of the situation on the peninsula, thus colluding with the Kibadas.
Kibada defeated Aaron and Fox succeeded, creating the dominion of the Heaton Peninsula by overturning the clouds and enjoying the greatest power and satisfaction. He used to say to himself, "The big husband is like that.” - It is also unclear which wise man is quoted.
But the situation soon changed again, and after Kibada took over Heaton, he kicked him aside and established the oligarchy rule of the Kibadas, seeing that Aaron had surrendered and did not want politicians like Fox to finger and foot him.
The disenfranchised Fox returns to Aaron and makes a new promise to the people - he has the means to defeat the mighty Sparta. It is believed that he is truly talented and that the Aarons once again chose Fox out of a desire to revive Higashiyama.
Fox united the city states that had been plundered by the Kibadas to form a navy, and in order to gain a complete advantage, he used his previous influence to negotiate peace with the nobility of Kibada, while alliing with the Poz Empire. Fox promised the Potts that he would recognize the privileges of the Potts Empire on the Heaton Peninsula if he defeated Kibada and his leader, Aaron, regained power.
