Chapter 99 Caught in the act by Zeus
The trees are drying up, the flowers are dying, and the grass is turning yellow, curling up into a ball of dead weeds.
Even the clear spring water began to become turbid and filled with a strange smell.
When Eros projected his thoughts onto Io through the small universe seeds he left behind, when he opened his eyes, he saw this lonely scene.
Eros was stunned for a moment, and soon understood the situation.
This is the original process according to the legend, because Demeter lost her daughter and the earth began to lose its vitality.
Also, in the previous events, Eros basically had no impact.
The most it can do is add one more Hypnos and Styx, but it’s still not enough in front of Hades.
It is estimated that Zeus had to intervene in the end, and then reached the result that Persephone would spend four months in the underworld every year.
But before Eros could think about anything further, Io had already noticed his arrival.
"Is that you?"
With the small universe seeds that Eros lit up for her, and a certain amount of small universe cultivation experience.
Yi'e can also notice that there is another touch of consciousness in the small universe in her body.
It’s just that she subconsciously didn’t know how to call Eros. After all, Eros only said one sentence to her and didn’t even leave his name.
“Well, it’s me.”
Eros's attitude seemed a bit cold, after all, he couldn't see or eat.
Now that Yi'e is still in the state of being transformed into a heifer, his interest and attitude are naturally not very high.
The main reason is that there is nothing to do in the underworld, so I just sleep and take a look at the situation on the earth.
Eros borrowed Io's eyes to look at the somewhat desolate scene in front of him.
I don’t know if this is a slap in Hera’s face. After all, she said at the time that she would feed Io the best grass and the sweetest spring water.
Now the land is completely barren, which is okay for a short time. If it takes too long, the land will really turn into a dead zone.
“Um, are you here to save me?”
Seemingly sensing that Eros’s attitude was not enthusiastic, Io asked cautiously.
Eros saw the giant figure sitting on the top of the mountain in the corner of Io's sight.
That is the all-seeing giant Argos, who is also the source of the name of the extremely famous Argonaut in Greek mythology.
It was sent by Hera to guard Io, but it was far from a terrifying giant.
In fact, it is more commonly seen as a hero, having slain the monster bull that ravaged Arcadia.
The most famous, but often ignored legend is that it also killed Typhon’s wife, the terrifying and beautiful Echidna.
Even Hermes did not dare to confront it head-on, so he could only cut off its head while it was sleeping.
Eros felt that he could not match him, not to mention that others were in the underworld and could not come here at all.
So he could only deal with it vaguely.
“Don’t be anxious, it’s not yet time.”
“Have you practiced the small universe I taught you diligently?”
Hearing Eros’ words , Yi'e replied quickly.
“Well, I dare not forget every moment.”
In fact, she is far more diligent than she says.
After being transformed into a cow, with the only remaining freedom, she only had to continue to practice the small universe.
This is also the only hope she retains in despair, hoping that one day she will be able to escape with the power of the small universe and return to human form.
For this reason, she can be said to be practicing the small universe day and night, sleeplessly, according to the experience left by Eros.
Of course Eros knew whether she was working hard or not. He just followed this topic and continued to give Io a little hope and draw a cake by the way.
"Well, that's good. No matter how long it takes, there is no need to despair."
"Just like watching the shooting stars in the night sky, wait and have hope."
This time Chicken soup and pancakes are undoubtedly very practical for Yi'e.
Even if she falls into this situation, she still has a direction that she can work hard for, and there are people who are supporting and helping her.
This undoubtedly supports her heart and perseverance.
"Yes! I understand!"
After comforting Io, Eros breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh, Zeus caused trouble, but he is here to end it for her. What does this mean?
After observing around and finding that there was nothing else going on here, Eros was ready to leave.
As soon as he pulled out his consciousness from Yi'e's small universe, another wave of consciousness from the small universe suddenly pressed towards him.
And the size of this small universe. What the hell is this? !
Eros compared it, and found that the scale of his own small universe was completely incomparable to that of his opponent.
Where did I get the warrior from? !
Before he had time to think about it, Eros’s consciousness was engulfed by the other party.
As for Yi'e, she felt a little disappointed after feeling that another consciousness in her small universe had left.
But the next moment, she cheered up again and kept running the small universe in her body, striving to break through the predicament in front of her as soon as possible.
And Eros, who was enveloped in the nameless small universe, opened his eyes in the infinite small universe inside.
But at this moment, he was still very confused.
As the source of the power of the small universe, what fierce person can be more outrageous than him and push the small universe to such a huge scale? His question was quickly answered. In the Milky Way galaxy in front of him, a figure that was as bright as flames and more dazzling than the stars appeared.
Her figure is the most perfect and beautiful among the many goddesses Eros has seen.
And her name is
"Dione?!"
Hearing this name, Zeus opened his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, seeming to be in a state of mood. A bit happy.
“Eros, why did you call me this name this time?”
Eros looked up with some embarrassment.
Last time, he was still on guard against Zeus, not wanting to be burned to a crisp.
But since he knew the truth of the matter, he understood the reason why Zeus mentioned the name at that time.
As Zeus, she is the great Father God, Zeus, the King of Gods.
But as Dione, she was the ordinary goddess with whom she had a brief love affair.
So this time, when Eros opened his mouth, it was what Zeus liked to hear.
Her blond hair is like this brilliant burning Milky Way, with countless magnificent planets dotted on it like hair accessories.
Whether it is a perfect face or a body that is so slender and well-proportioned that there is nothing wrong with it.
Zeus and she are the ones who are most in line with Eros’s aesthetics, but I don’t know what Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty, will look like.
But Eros estimates that he will not be more beautiful than Zeus.
After all, as the almighty god of Zeus, her beauty is the beauty of all things in the world, and Aphrodite should not be able to compare with her.
Well, only Eros himself can compare, on another track.
"It's just a pity that this time I have to come to you as Zeus."
The originally burning Milky Way and all the burning planets instantly became cold and silent down.
Zeus' blond hair turned into long silver hair as dazzling as the Milky Way, and his temperament also changed accordingly.
Eros was not surprised at all that Zeus was able to simulate a small universe of this scale.
She has been observing herself for so long, and she has spread the power of the small universe.
With her talent, it is not difficult to learn and simulate the power of this small universe.
He just has a little bit of envy, just a little bit.
Forget it, stop pretending.
He was envious of Eros, extremely envious.
If it weren't for the face he had maintained in front of Zeus, he would have been holding Zeus's thigh and shouting that the rich woman is hungry and needs food.
When Zeus finds a good priesthood for himself, he will be able to soar directly into the sky.
Cheating is not as good as these gods directly using world permissions to play modifiers, right?
Amphitrite went from a vase goddess to a powerful god, with just the priesthood of a queen of the sea.
Eros really wants Nyx or Zeus to give him a good priesthood now.
Zeus slowly walked up to Eros, with a light smile on his face.
"What are you thinking about? I have something serious to tell you."
Eros came back to his senses, looked at Zeus in front of him, and laughed.
"Tell me, what is the value of this innocent girl that makes you so interested in her?"
As soon as he came out of Io's body, he was caught on the spot by Zeus. Eros wouldn't believe it unless he was being followed.
And regarding Io, Zeus almost told Eros that she had other plans.
"I can only tell you this matter, and you must not spread it to anyone else."
Zeus is worthy of being Zeus, and the subtext of this sentence is "I believe the most." It’s only you” – “You are special to me.”
Although I don’t know that she is just cheating, I still really feel that way.
But Eros still felt very comfortable after hearing this. Who doesn't like to be so valued by others?
And even Hera was kept in the dark, which made Eros even more excited.
No, why do you feel like a mistress?
"Ahem, tell me, what do you want to do? You still need my help."
"I knew you would definitely help me."
With a delighted smile on his face, Zeus took Eros' hand.
“The matter of Io is very important to me. She is the daughter of the river god Inachus. Although she is human, her name also hides a divinity.”
"This divinity has no meaning in Olympus, but for another land, she has a very important status."
Without reservation, Zeus expressed her calculations to Eros Tell the truth.
This trust even surprised Eros.
"From Mount Olympus, move toward the southwest of the endless Sea of Oceanus, after crossing the non-existent barrier."
"You will arrive at a river that runs through the golden land, There is the land of the sun, a region that belongs to another civilization and mythology.”
“The name of that land is Essenile, and it is a world destined to be conquered by us.”
Eros was shocked. Before he could say anything, Zeus had already spoken out his thoughts.
“And Io, in that land, her name will be Isis.”
"She was the rocker that opened the door to that world for me."
Greece itself has Egypt, and even closer places like Rome and Europa feel like they are unavoidable links.
