Chapter 181: The Stuck Story, The Hero of Destiny, Corresponding to the Original Character, A Strange Idea
This strong Greek mythological theme is exemplified by Uranus, the first king of the gods, who both hated and feared his children, so he imprisoned them in the abyss (Tartarus).
That is, within Tartarus.
The earth goddess Gaia was displeased by this, and the youngest Titan, Cronus, declared, "Mother, I'll help you."
Later, they directly cut off Uranus's manhood.
He was ordered to escape.
His rule was overthrown, and thus the future began, and a new story unfolded with the second generation of god-kings.
And then the prophecy came again.
It is said that he is destined to be overthrown by his own children, just like his father was overthrown by himself.
So he got scared.
She ate her five newborn children, namely Hestia, Hera, Hades, Poseidon, and Demeter.
Then he had a child named "143". His wife couldn't stand it and switched the baby with another child.
They sent him away.
This is Zeus.
Later, Zeus rescued his brother, defeated his father, and ushered in victory, thus creating a new future.
But what's really funny is...
In Orario, Zeus's Familia has been defeated.
Logically, shouldn't the normal story development be that they defeat the three adventurers' requests, defeat the final black dragon, and achieve victory?
That way, we can have a new future.
But it's now clear that Orario is stuck.
Erica could see that the guild needed top-tier members to finally defeat the Black Dragon and fulfill their tragic wish.
So Ye Ruo had an amused expression on her face.
"So, what's your answer?"
Erica pondered for a moment before speaking calmly.
"I think it should be the Earth Mother Goddess [Gaia] at the very bottom of the underground city."
“At first I thought it might be Tartarus, the true form of the underworld. But then I thought it might be Typhon, the progenitor of all demons, who had many offspring.”
"The monsters born from mating with the female snake Echidna are almost like the testing grounds for many heroes in Greek mythology."
"Cerberus, harpies, lion-headed goat monsters, half-lion, half-eagle, two-headed dogs—there are many monsters in the underground labyrinth, and you can see the shadow of Greek mythology in them all."
"The underground city also has the Minotaur, and these minotaurs are a classic example of Greek mythology."
"However, considering that Uranus and Zeus, and that the underground city is alive and is a mother, I am more inclined to believe that it is a female deity, and if we were to compare it to Uranus, then it would be Gaia."
In mythology, Uranus and Gaia created all things, and he came to oversee the underground city, using his divine power to suppress and appease.
There aren't many people who can be compared to him.
It seems that even Zeus would have to pass Gaia's trial.
Just like in the original myth, Zeus led his brothers and sisters to defeat the second generation of gods in order to have a future.
Thinking of this, Erica even gave a wry smile for no apparent reason.
"Your Majesty, logically speaking, the current situation should mean that the Freya Familia and the Loki Familia will join forces in the future to defeat the Black Dragon and usher in a new future."
"This is the most likely story development at present, but I have come up with a very strange idea."
"Oh?"
"That means if we follow the Greek myth and the story of Zeus, perhaps the defeated Zeus went and harmed other women, and the children born were demigods, destined heroes, and destiny itself!"
"He will go through many difficulties and obstacles. He is the son of a god and will eventually become a hero, defeating the enemy! He will achieve victory with the Zeus lineage. A very standard Zeus myth."
"Of course, according to the rules of this world, it seems that gods cannot have children with humans? So let's change the story. Zeus found a child, raised him, and the child had a certain kinship with Zeus."
"Then they came to Orario to embark on an adventure, constantly growing stronger, and finally defeating the Black Dragon."
"A victory for the Zeusian faction, a standard heroic legend."
Ye Ruo's expression was strange.
"Erica, it's such a pity you're not going to be the god of destiny in this world."
Cassandra and precognitive dreams have to give way to you.
I asked you to apply mythological texts, and you've gone this far.
It's a talent.
This was something she didn't know: the monsters in the dungeon all called the dungeon mother, possessing obvious female characteristics, which made the theory of female Gaia even more solid.
Seeing Ye Ruo's expression, Erica's face twitched; she was dumbfounded too.
"Wait, Your Majesty, could I have guessed right?"
"Ah, that's about right. As for who's down in the dungeon, when you become gods, I'll just split open the dungeon and take you down to see. Wouldn't that be better?"
"As for the original development, it doesn't matter. Even if Zeus came, it would still be the same. This is no longer the era of Zeus's and Hera's families."
"You may do as you please."
"Greek mythology has great heroes, but the gods are a boring thing."
Erica seemed to understand the implied meaning.
"Could it be that in the world of the King, the Greek gods are similar to the myths of our world?"
"Of course, most of the Greek gods were narrow-minded and petty, even Almatia, the goat goddess who raised Zeus, thought so."
"Zeus was still lecherous and promiscuous, and the other gods were no better; they were all very disorganized."
"Of course, this does not conflict with the fact that they are heroes and have a glorious and righteous side."
For example, Zeus also made a declaration as the Great Father God in order to defeat Typhon and become one of the strongest gods.
It has highlights.
That's great.
But that doesn't change the fact that he's a god of lust and promiscuity.
Because there's absolutely no conflict.
There are still many flaws in their character. The Greek gods are just so-so. As for those who think Zeus is so great that they can't stand his other shortcomings, and those who think 1.7 is talking nonsense, they must be children.
Only children think the world is not all black and white.
Black is definitely black, and white is definitely white.
In fact, they can coexist.
Therefore, Ye Ruo naturally admires a small number of Greek demigod heroes.
"Alright, enough rambling, Erica, I'm sure you have your answer by now."
Erica smiled beautifully.
"Ah."
Then she deliberately raised her beautiful leg.
"My king, let's turn off the lights together."
"Even now, you can still call me 'darling'."
"Okay, darling, I love you so much. Today is my day to have you all to myself. Hehe, it's awesome."
"Lili's face must be green with envy, haha."
Chapter 182 Is it possible that they really are a business family?
To the astonishment of the Orario gods, the Inazuma Familia had returned from the dungeon.
It's astonishing.
They finally decided to come back.
They registered a business-related clan, but then didn't engage in any business activities, leaving everyone confused. Then they went to the dungeon for so long that people who didn't know the situation thought something had happened to them.
It was truly a rollercoaster ride.
After all, it's not like a bunch of level 1 players would enter a dungeon and then disappear without a trace.
So weird.
It would be too boring to die in the underground labyrinth at the very beginning.
After all, everyone here is just watching the show.
I'm also curious to see what changes and new unknowns this otherworldly clan will bring to this city.
Then the next day, something happened that left many people both amused and exasperated.
The Inatsume family bought a shop.
They've started selling it commercially again.
All I can say is, they really know how to have fun.
Unsurprisingly, the shop's business exploded, making the surrounding shop owners green with envy. Damn it, they have this kind of off-the-charts popularity, it's so unfair!
How can we possibly compete with them?
...
【Teyvat Shop】
The place was packed with people, business was booming, and all sorts of races were browsing products: orcs, elves, dwarves, humans, and Amazons dressed in rather daring and sexy clothes.
When they are bumped into, they will give the other person a charming look.
