Chapter 73 The Perfect Woman 073
Aphrodite smiled, with a calm and gentle expression, giving a tolerant and peaceful feeling, which made people feel relaxed.
He said: "I will also have hope for human beings."
Prometheus was stunned, and then smiled: "Then I thank you for them."
Then Prometheus said: "His Royal Highness, there is not much time for human beings, please tell me your requirements for the temple, I have to visit the gods."
He said that at this moment, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes showed obvious trouble and impatience, but he was trying his best to keep his face calm.
Aphrodite said softly: "My temple is not in a hurry, let's talk about the sacrifice of the gods after half a year of human beings. If it is the best, just build another temple for me in a hundred years. No... It makes no sense to say that.”
Prometheus was not happy because Aphrodite said he would not build a temple, on the contrary, his expression became more solemn.
Aphrodite looked at him seriously: "Prometheus, you have 'seeing', prophet, do you think this group of human beings are enough to be loved by the gods and thrive under the protection of the gods?"
Prometheus did not answer, but said: "I will do my best, and will use my knowledge to guide human beings. As for whether they are favored by the gods, what the future will be depends on their own decision."
"Fate has been chosen, and they have to bear the consequences."
Aphrodite asked curiously: "What about you, Prometheus? Do you choose to go all out to help mankind? If the future of this group of mankind is bleak, then you are the defender and pioneer of this group of mankind. , you will also be punished and condemned by the gods. Do you want to hand over your destiny to this group of humans to choose?"
Prometheus looked at him fixedly, suddenly laughed, he lowered his eyebrows, shook his head and said solemnly: "No, because they give me what I want no matter what."
Prometheus stepped back, opened the distance from him, and said with a slight frown, "Your Highness, please don't ask any more questions, it's not a good thing for you to know more about me."
Aphrodite heard the words and said: "Well, I won't ask, I wish you all the best in your actions in the human race."
Prometheus said softly: "Thank you for your blessing."
Then he looked at Hephaestus and asked, "His Royal Highness Hephaestus, what is your request for the temple?"
Hephaestus looked at Aphrodite and said, "My Highness and I, let's talk about it in a hundred years."
The expression of Prometheus's eyes was a little complicated. He looked at the eyes of two gods, thanked him in a low voice, and then said goodbye and left.
Hephaestus whispered in Aphrodite's ear: "Your Highness, what is Prometheus thinking?"
Aphrodite lowered her head and pondered: "No matter what, human beings will give him what he wants. If human beings are good, then as the creator of a new human being, he can leap into a god with the power of faith. For him There is indeed no harm. But if man is not good, what does he want..."
Hephaestus nodded, with a hint of confusion on his face.
Aphrodite thought of Iapetus, he thought, because of what he told me? Prometheus is different from Helios. He created a new human being, the god of merit. If he was punished by Zeus for the new human being, those daughters who rebelled against the gods would probably be completely disappointed by Zeus, and then... rebel?
Aphrodite stood there and thought for a moment, these thoughts only revolved in his mind, but he did not express these thoughts, he said to Hephaestus: "Who knows, if he doesn't care , let's continue to make clay sculptures. This time I want to create a female 'sex', a...beautiful female 'sex' that surpasses the beauty of the world and is comparable to the gods."
Hephaestus' eyes flickered slightly, he pursed his lower lip lightly, and said, "No problem, you are making great progress."
Chubby asked curiously, "Father, won't you continue to pinch me?"
Aphrodite pinched his white wings and sighed, "Your wings are troublesome to pinch."
Cupid smiled and ducked, rolled his eyes, and said, "By the way, Father God, Sister Artemis said she was going to take me to hunt in the forest on earth. Do you want to get up with me?"
Aphrodite asked, "When and what gods were there?"
Chubby scratched his hair and smiled stupidly: "I don't know either..."
Aphrodite and Hephaestus looked at each other and smiled helplessly.
They sat down at the temple of Hephaestus. Aphrodite planned to make clay puppets seriously this time. Before starting, she first conceived the appearance of the beautiful woman's "female", and Hephaestus helped Choose from dirt, honey, and film.
Before the two were ready to start, Athena also came to the temple of Hephaestus. She used an excuse to get the chariot of wisdom, but after entering the temple, she asked Hephaestus to take him to see Aphrodite noodle.
Hephaestus was a little impatient with Athena's busyness, but he took her to Aphrodite.
When they came in, Aphrodite was making up the doll's head, drawing detailed but vivid brows for the doll.
He didn't stop when he saw Athena coming in, and still focused on slowly and carefully drawing his eyebrows for the clay doll.
Athena sat down opposite him and whispered, "His Royal Highness Aphrodite."
Aphrodite responded casually, "Huh?"
"you……"
Aphrodite put down the carving knife in her hand, wiped her fingers with a handkerchief while looking at her, and asked in confusion, "His Royal Highness Athena, what are you doing here to find Hephaestus in the temple of Hephaestus? ?"
Athena pursed her lips slightly, her expression cold and solemn, with an inexplicable solemn meaning: "I'm here to find you."
Aphrodite was silent, as if waiting for her to finish.
Athena whispered: "After Prometheus returned to the earth, I went to him. He told me about you. You seem to be kind to the new humans."
Aphrodite smiled and said, "You misunderstood, I only like to meddle in my own business occasionally."
The goddess with gray and silver hair, don't know what to say.
After a while, she pretended not to hear what Aphrodite just said, and continued: "If I can, I don't want to bother you. But this new batch of humans probably won't be able to keep it, so I only brazenly ask you... "
Aphrodite raised her eyes and said: "You will be more clear, why can't the new humans be saved, the causes and consequences?"
Athena said solemnly: "After the council of gods and kings was held, Prometheus brought the will of the gods back to human beings and told them. Humans are not stupid, they have wisdom and think that the gods are 'forcing' them to go. Death, they are unwilling to build temples, and they are unwilling to sacrifice to the gods."
Aphrodite said coldly: "They have wisdom, because they know that the gods are oppressing them, and they are dissatisfied with the gods. But also because they have wisdom, they should know how powerful the gods are, know how to fear, know how powerful the gods are. Fearless resistance is nothing but sacrifice..."
Athena was silent, and after Aphrodite finished speaking, she said, "What they do has nothing to do with me, and I don't give them advice."
"Then what is Prometheus's idea?" Aphrodite raised her eyebrows, noncommittal, and said lightly: "Tell me, what good advice did Prometheus give to the new humans?"
Athena explained to Prometheus: "Don't blame Prometheus, Prometheus only fulfilled the wishes of mankind."
She began to say: "In short, human beings are very dissatisfied with the will of the gods, do not want to work hard to build temples, don't want to offer food to the gods as sacrifices, and don't want to cheer up to the gods after a busy day. Pray. But they dare not express this dissatisfaction openly, so they are ready to 'deceive'."
"Prometheus indulges them. I want to say that when human beings first proposed this idea, he should scolded the human being who was incapable of thinking, but he didn't. Not only did he not, he also discussed with the group of human beings. how to deceive the gods..."
"I knew it was too late. The god king and the gods are not fools and will not let humans deceive them. Prometheus and the new humans are bound to pay for their decisions, but the gods still need the faith of humans , These humans are dead, and new humans will be created. But only the clay dolls shaped by the hands of Prometheus, the son of the soul, will become humans, and we will not sit idly by and let these humans die."
Aphrodite looked at the clay puppet that was gradually taking shape in her hand, and smiled but said nothing.
Athena said, "This is your chance, isn't it?"
"If you save a group of humans from this group of humans, you will be their savior, and humans will worship you as the supreme god. Although this means little to you, it's better than nothing, isn't it?"
Aphrodite nodded and said: "Not only my savior, but also because of the birth of this group of human beings with your help, no matter what they have experienced, you are their creator, and they will never dare to turn their backs on you and disrespect you. Is there a reason?"
Aphrodite looked at her with a smile: "If this new batch of human beings are completely wiped out, you may not be able to "plug in" the creation of the next batch of human beings."
The goddess smiled, and she said frankly: "Yes, that's what I thought. Your Highness, your first god of love, you keep plundering your power to strengthen yourself, so you should also understand the reason why I keep strengthening yourself. "
"In fact, I want to save these humans personally and become their savior. But I don't dare." Athena looked gloomy, she gritted her teeth and said: "My position of the main god is controlled by Zeus, and I have no capital to resist him. , I can't stand any accident, I just keep obedient in front of him."
Aphrodite nodded and said: "Okay, you put it down, I will leave hope for the new human beings. I am not helping you by doing this. As you said, this matter is only good for me, just take it easy. things, why should I not do it?"
Aphrodite looked at Athena with a smile, and his words were relaxed and tolerant, but his gaze gave Athena a strong sense of oppression, reminding her that this matter did not end there.
Athena understood that she was also profiting. It would be fine if she didn't find Aphrodite and offered to ask, but if she asked Aphrodite, she had to pay.
It doesn't matter, she can afford the price, she has several secrets about Aphrodite, you that... If Aphrodite knows the secret content, she will lose her temper.
Because it was "ignored" and "unremembered" by him.
But that secret is important, it is only a new human being, and it is not worth her to tell that secret to Aphrodite.
Athena's mind flashed several thoughts, and finally said: "His Royal Highness, in the prophecy of Gaia, the mother of the earth, after me, I have a younger brother, and he will Cronus curse the child who will overthrow the god-king's rule."
Aphrodite raised her eyebrows and said in surprise: "You Metis was conceived before being swallowed up by Zeus, so you continue to be born. But your younger brother should have disappeared completely with the fall of Metis, right?"
Athena shook her head: "He didn't disappear, but we don't know where he went. Maybe one day he will reincarnate as another god, or he has been reincarnated, but we don't know that he is. "
"It doesn't matter where he came from, what I want to tell you is that he is the god of chance and creation, maybe you will be interested in his lost godhead."
Aphrodite was surprised: "You even know his godhead, so why don't you take his godhead yourself?"
Athena showed a speechless expression, and then said: "I think so too, but he is greedy for wisdom, and he is always seeking beautiful and reconciling things. Compared with me, you who are smart and beautiful are more attractive to him. "
Aphrodite looked at her thoughtfully, and after thinking about it, she asked: "He is not like you and Hades and Herana, who were swallowed by their father when they were born. Although you are trapped in Zeus's In the body, but enough to communicate and possess wisdom?"
Athena was stunned but said: "Maybe, but we all have sex, and my brother is different, Boros died before he was born, he has no form. But he also existed, so the law will record his Traces." Boros is the word for chance, the one who died before he was born.
Aphrodite asked, "How do I attract his godhead?"
Athena looked at him speechlessly and murmured: "I don't know, I only know his preferences, if I directly draw out his godhead, then I will have it for myself, and I won't tell you. ."
It seems to have to figure out a way.
No, it doesn’t matter, what is the difficulty of finding the Godhead compared to this magical Godhead that symbolizes opportunity and creation?
Not to mention, he can ask about the law.
Athena secretly looked into Aphrodite's eyes, and when she saw that he was obviously moved by Boros's godhead, her heart was slightly relieved, and then her anticipation rose.
If Aphrodite really got the godhead of Boros, would he be close and friendly to himself under the influence of Boros?
Just like the subtle influence of Metis' mother on Zeus.
Athena wasn't sure either, but she hoped so.
Then she said goodbye to Aphrodite and Hephaestus, and left with the chariot.
Aphrodite looked at the little clay puppets in front of her, and smiled helplessly at Hephaestus: "It seems that our speed is going to be faster, it's better to take this beautiful woman before the sacrifice. ' to be created."
Hephaestus sat down beside him and asked, "I'll pinch your limbs for you."
Aphrodite buried her head in carving the cheeks of the clay doll, and said casually, "Okay."
Cupid flew over and turned in circles in front of Aphrodite, Aphrodite caught a glimpse of his moving figure out of the corner of her eye, and asked curiously, "Cupi, what are you circling? "
Chubby looked at him expectantly, his eyes sparkling: "Father, I want to take an adventure and find the lost Godhead of opportunity!"
Aphrodite chatted with him: "Where do you want to find him?"
Kyuubi said seriously: "Since the opportunity, I must have met it when I should have met it."
Aphrodite glanced at him, and felt that there was some truth to his reasoning.
but……
"For a while, the matter of the new human beings will come to an end."
Chubby sat down obediently again, put his hands on his chin and said melancholy, "Well then..."
The boring process of pinching the clay puppet made him feel a little boring, but Aphrodite was obviously happy.
Half a year is not a long time for the gods, especially the gods who are immersed in their hobbies.
Aphrodite was painting the clay doll's nails when Zeus summoned the gods to the human world. Because of the prominent sound, his nails were painted very imperfectly. He changed his fingers to the clay doll with a gloomy expression, and then wiped his hands.
Aphrodite took advantage of the priesthood to look at the mountain and said to Hephaestus: "Zeus ordered us to go to the human world to accept sacrifices."
Hephaestus felt a little boring and complained: "There are meaningless sacrifices on both sides of the field, I really don't know why they waste time on this kind of thing."
Aphrodite wiped her fingers slowly, and said seriously, "There's got to be a time."
But Chubby cheered: "I can finally go out to play!"
Aphrodite smiled slightly, indulging in her adoring look at his model flying up and down, until she came to the gods, her face gradually turned cold, turning into a reserved and cold model.
Zeus circled their eyes, raised the thunder scepter and said to the gods: "Everyone is here, then, let's go and show our miracles to the new humans!"
The gods "showed" smiles one after another, but there were also undead smiles that were perfunctory, apparently not interested in this trip to the human world, and the main gods accounted for most of them.
The gods followed Zeus to ride the white clouds, hula-la flew down from the sacred mountain above the clouds, and came to the earth of mankind.
They stopped in the sky above the human station and looked at the achievements of human beings in the past six months. The so-called 'temple'-that is, a pile of "random" stones, an altar-two large stones, and offerings-a pile Hearty, meat, entrails, and fat covered with hides, belly, and beef bones that look hearty but are covered in butter.
Humans only worshipped the god-king Zeus, and prayed to Zeus to let him have mercy on human beings and choose one of these two offerings.
The gods are not blind, how can they not see the hands and feet of human beings on the sacrifices, Zeus forbears the anger, and his cold eyes traces the two sacrifices, silently, fingering the pile of cattle bones. offerings.
The human being in charge of the sacrifice was very happy and gave the pile of bones to Zeus. Prometheus sighed softly and closed his eyes.
If Zeus chooses a rich offering, it means that he accepts the sacrifice, but he chooses a barren offering. Humans thought their disguised offerings had deceived the gods, but in fact—
Zeus took the bones, touched them with his hand, and immediately threw the bones out, saying angrily, "You bastards, I asked you to sacrifice me with bulls, but you used bones to fool me. Humans, do you think the gods are fools?!"
Humans knelt down uneasy, and Zeus ordered Hephaestus to say: "Humans disrespect the gods and deceive the gods with inferior sacrifices. They should pay the price for their arrogant behavior. Hephaestus, collect the fire of mankind. , I want them to no longer use fire to grill food, and their prey in the future will only drink blood and eat them alive! And when the cold winter comes, they are not allowed to use fire to keep warm and endure the pain of their skin!”
Hephaestus looked at the eyes of these humans, and accepted the fire of humans according to his words.
The thoughts of the gods about human beings before, but now they are all angry.
Even if human beings do nothing and are slackers in the eyes of the gods, it is easy to use this temple and sacrifices to perfunctory them.
They are fooling the gods for idiots!
If they don't pay the price, human beings will become more and more advanced in the future!
The gods were angrily brought back to the mountain by Zeus, Zeus was so angry that he reached the Temple of the King of God, clapped the handrail and said angrily: "The collection of human fire is only a short-term small punishment, it does not mean that this matter is over. Humans must pay for what they do!"
Hermes shouted: "Your Majesty, what should we do, please tell me!"
Zeus had an idea long ago, and he was not blind. He had already paid attention to the movements of humans when Prometheus returned to the human world.time, and have already figured out how to deal with humans.
Zeus looked at Hephaestus and said: "This group of disrespectful human beings will never stay, they must be destroyed! I have an idea, Hephaestus, you go to cast a perfect and beautiful human female""Sex" model comes out, and I'll talk to the gods about my plan first."
Hephaestus was stunned for a while, but he forced himself not to look at Aphrodite, and said, "I used to cast a statue of a human female. She is very beautiful and perfect. I can let the fairy Nymph move it.Come to appreciate it."
