The World of Deities
Chapter 1 Sober
In the autumn of Athens, Greece, the blue sky is majestic and the clouds flow long.
On an ordinary street in the workshop area, dozens of people were blocking the door of a gray-white residential building, craned their necks and looked inside.
They looked sympathetically at the boy who collapsed on the ground.
The shining scimitar was put away from the boy's neck, and a very shallow trace of blood slowly slid down from the wound, and it solidified before it hit the ground.
"I just scared him, I didn't use any force, I just scratched the skin... I won't die..." The knife holder muttered to himself, holding his breath, turning his head to look at the brown-haired man beside him, with a panic in his eyes. Spread slowly.
The scar was like a centipede lying on the left face of the brown-haired man, crawling from the corner of his mouth to under the eyes, he gave a cold snort, and the centipede twisted slightly as if it was alive.
Suddenly, the boy's hands trembled slightly.
"This bastard seems to have moved..." the knife holder said hurriedly.
Su Ye is having a long dream.
Su Ye dreamed that he lived on a planet called Blue Star. He was very ordinary from childhood to most, and learning was the only theme when he was a child.
As long as you work hard, your performance will improve. Once you relax, your performance will drop immediately.
Until his family changed drastically, Su Ye in his dream couldn't bear it, he became confused and helpless, unwilling to study, and finally graduated in a daze, working in a muddle-headed manner, and his whole person seemed to be moving forward in the dark mist.
However, in Su Ye's heart, the flame of unyielding did not stop.
Su Ye finally sobered up on the day when his father was seriously ill and he couldn't even get a few thousand yuan.
The mist receded.
Su Ye started an unprecedented effort, even harder than when he was a student.
Fortunately, it was an era of knowledge explosion, and a huge amount of information was readily available. After experiencing self-study, the unsatisfied Su Ye joined the tide of paying for knowledge and became a leek with a high degree of knowledge anxiety.
Su Ye moved forward with a clear goal. After continuous learning, he thrived, became more experienced, worked more actively, thought better, and continued to improve his performance. In just a few years, he was promoted continuously, and even was lucky enough at the company's annual meeting. Rewards for visiting Greece.
After arriving in Greece, Su Ye stood on the cruise ship while admiring the beautiful scenery while thinking about his promotion and salary increase, general manager, CEO, and the pinnacle of life...
The tsunami struck and drowned everything.
Su Ye vaguely saw himself being swept to the ancient ruins under the sea, and then plunged into the darkness, desperate, and the world in his dream suddenly changed.
Su Ye dreamed of becoming a boy in Athens in ancient Greece.
The two dream worlds are completely different. Su Ye in the new world cannot remember the events of the previous world, but the pronunciation of the names of the two Su Ye is exactly the same.
The new Su Ye grew up in a daze.
Su Ye’s parents were bakers and they were very busy. Su Ye was unconstrained since he was a child, and he often wandered around in Athens. The place where he went most often was the largest port in Athens, Port of Lion.
Last year, Su Ye was fifteen years old. His parents exhausted their life savings and bought a student quota at Plato Academy and sent Su Ye to Plato Academy to study magic.
Su Ye was still confused and his academic performance was extremely poor. However, under the influence of Plato College, he still grew up and spent a year as a scumbag and entered the summer vacation.
At the end of the summer vacation, Su Ye was preparing for the second year of study at Plato College, and the bad news came.
Seven days ago, the parents and servants who had gone out were attacked by a band of thieves, leaving no bones.
Six days ago, the infamous "centipede" Lawvens appeared, showed his parents' IOU in front of the tearful Su Ye, and then rummaged through Su Ye's house to repay the debt. In the end, he found only one golden eagle coin and forty. Silver peacock coin and more than two hundred copper owl coin
It turned out that Su Ye's parents wanted to expand their business, sell their old shop, and borrowed a hundred gold eagle coins with a house worth three hundred eagle coins as collateral.Unfortunately, I have not waited to buy a new store,
Lawvens told Su Ye to abandon the residence or die.
Today, Lawvens came again, and brought a person who should have died.
Ke Luo, servant of Su Yejia Bakery.
No matter what Su Ye said, Ke Luo retorted with his understanding of Su Ye's family, which led to Su Ye found that he had nowhere to go except to give up the house.
Su Ye said with grief and angrily: "You were a slave! You were a slave and you were about to die. My parents kindly bought you to redeem you and make you a free citizen! Unexpectedly, you would harm me! Why am I? Parents and your servants went out together, they were killed, but you were unscathed?"
"It's a long story. You should listen to Master Lawvens honestly and give up the house. If Master Lawvens is happy, maybe he will reward you with a few golden eagles." Old Coro laughed, his face becoming more honest.
"You...you know that our family is a Gentile. If we don't have a house, we can't study at Plato Academy! What's more, my parents have passed away and there is no house. What should I do?"
Ke Luo still had a simple and honest look, but his eyes flashed with strong malice, showing yellow teeth full of gaps, and slowly smiled: "You can sell yourself as a slave!"
Lawvens suddenly said: "Old Ke Luo, you don't fight back when you are insulted. It seems that you still miss their family's kindness."
Ke Luo stunned for a moment, rushed over, punched and kicked Su Ye, and smiled and cursed while beating, "I wanted to teach you this little bastard a long time ago!"
Su Ye resisted instinctively, but Ke Luo stretched out his hand to drew a scimitar from a big man and chopped it over.
Su Ye was shocked and backed hurriedly, his body unbalanced and fell, his head hit the ground hard.
Ke Luo immediately placed the knife on Su Ye's neck, and when the knife cut through the skin, he discovered that Su Ye was unconscious.
Su Ye had a splitting headache, and the two dream worlds began to merge, discovering that there were more and more differences between the two worlds.
This is an ancient world with gods.
There are not only the gods of Greece and Rome, but also the gods of Egypt, Northern Europe and Persia.
at this time,
The shadow of the Titans enveloped Greece.
Apofis, the dragon of destruction, stared at the Sunship.
The evil god lurks in the two rivers.
The Serpent of Doom and the Wolf of Twilight are about to wake up.
at this time,
Hercules has become famous in Greece and Rome.
Gilgamesh and Darius shared Persia.
Beowulf succeeded as Lord of the North Sea.
The ancient Egyptian pharaohs are resurrected collectively every few decades to fight for the true king. The current pharaoh is Ramses II.On the day he sat on the throne of the Pharaoh for the third time, his sister in this life returned to Thebes. She was a heroic king, known as Cleopatra...
Socrates is not only a great philosopher, but also the only great mage on the path of a demigod.
Plato, the "idealist", was promoted to legend after Socrates' death and founded the Plato Academy. He was silent for many years, as if he did not want to be promoted to a hero, nor did he intend to advance to a higher demigod.
"Recorder" Thucydides served as the deputy dean of the Plato Academy.
"The King of Geometry" Pythagoras has been perfecting magic geometry since he was promoted to the legendary archmage.
After "The King of Water" Thales got to know the Lord of Water Elements, he defeated the heroic warrior as a legend, and even rumored that he has the strength of a heroic king.
The "great prophet" Homer appears and disappears from time to time, and Hesiod, the "god-seeker" who is as famous as Homer, lives in the mountains.
at this time,
Aristotle has a small reputation.
Euclid was distressed for promotion to the sanctuary.
Archimedes has no intention of practicing, playing with things and loses his will.
Alexander is working hard, because if he doesn't work hard, he can only return to his hometown to be the heir of the king...
Su Ye did not expect that these heroes and celebrities, who were distributed in different historical periods, would appear in the same era.
In the world of the gods, there were originally only gods, and then there were humans.
Modern humans only know their own time, but Hesiod, the "God Peeper", has published a discovery to the world.
It turned out that the gods created different humans one after another, the first being the human beings in the Golden Age, then the humans in the Silver Age, and then the humans in the Bronze Age.
Each generation of humans is worse than the previous generation, and modern humans are called "humans of the Black Iron Age" by Hesiod and are the worst generation of humans.
However, some people are born different from ordinary people.
On them, the blood of gods is flowing.
They are descendants of God.
Since their birth, they have had divine power that only gods possess. Although that divine power is very weak, as they continue to practice, their divine power continues to increase, and they may even be promoted to true gods and possess the power of true gods.
As humans continue to multiply, the descendants of divine power continue to increase, but the bloodline of divine power is getting thinner and thinner, and eventually every newborn cannot directly possess divine power.
However, mankind is constantly making progress. With the help of the great prophet Homer and the God-seeker Hesiod, mankind has created a method of cultivating divine power, allowing mankind to refine divine power step by step and continuously improve power.
Hesiod believes that human beings’ increasing power is equal to tracing back to the old age, so he named the lowest level of warrior the Black Iron Warrior, and kept going back to the times, and then named the Bronze Warrior, Silver Warrior, Golden Warrior...
Su Ye's dream changed faster and faster.
"Ahem... ahem..."
Su Ye coughed violently and woke up suddenly. When he opened his eyes, he saw the blue sky, and Ke Luo and Lawvens in the aftermath.
Su Ye had difficulty breathing, instinctively got up, supporting the ground with both hands and breathing heavily.After a while, he stood up slowly and looked ahead.
The nearest is Koro with a machete.
Behind Ke Luo, the grim-faced Lawvens looked over coldly.
Behind Lawvens, four strong men, two heads taller than Su Ye, stood apart, folded their arms around their chests, and raised their chins high, with threats in their eyes.
Those big guys blocked his vision, and Su Ye couldn't see the people outside the door.
Su Ye frowned slightly, and many memories poured into his mind.
In the next moment, Su Ye's right thumb and index finger gently double-tap twice, his body slowly straightened, his shoulders stretched back, his arms opened to the sides, his chest was raised up, and he took a deep breath.
Several other people were puzzled. Lawvens's cold eyes became extremely sharp. He found that after Su Ye stood upright, his eyes were misty, but in a blink of an eye, the mist dissipated and his eyes were clear, as bright as a torch in the night. .
At this moment, Su Ye seemed to have changed.
Important notes for this book:
After thinking about it for a long time, in order to avoid reading obstacles to readers caused by western names, nouns, etc., I will shorten the names as much as possible and try not to exceed four characters.
There are also some words, such as "Drachma" and other words, I will try to change them into a way that is easier to remember.
For example, Hephaestus, the craftsman and god of fire in ancient Greece, whose name is too long, I cut it directly into "Vulcan".And Vulcan is what ancient Rome called Hephaestus. In this world, the gods of Rome and Greece belong to one family (the gods of ancient Rome originally used Greek directly), so this name is reasonable.
Words like "" are all changed to "special" which is more familiar to readers.
The eight-character names like "Herma Phroditos" that I have a headache are cut directly into "Herma".
People like Aristotle and Pythagoras are well-known, and they really cannot be changed.
The ancient Greeks were single names, and the names were generally longer. In ancient Rome, they were more exaggerated. There were only 20 or 30 common names. Therefore, I will not deliberately use the names of the time when I choose the names.
Moreover, the translation of different books is different, it can be said to be very messy, I can only choose one.
The common sense of ancient Greece is not suitable for the world of gods.For example, the original city of Athens was actually very small. At that time, there were no professional soldiers or people to maintain law and order, but this book cannot be written like that.
And so on, I will not explain them one by one later.
Compared with restoring the ancient Greek world, I prefer to let readers finish the novel easily.
Finally, welcome to the world of the gods.
